EPTand yeah, Tree Diagram went down already by that point. That didn't really matter though, forgot whether it was in Index or Railgun that they covered it, but the most direct part that Tree Diagram have on the project is how it derived the whole idea of the project. After that, it is just a data crunching machine and getting Accelerator to kill more is the only thing important. I can probably doublecheck later.

But my two cents on School Days: Only thing fun about it is the ending. Everything else is just "meh". And today as I started watching Bakemonogatari 15... I remembered: Why did I like this show in the first place? Perhaps it's the fact that it took a 15 episode series an entire year to finish that brought about that thought, or maybe the frustration that none of the wordplay worked in English. | ||

Your taste changed, probably? Nishio Ishin's writing is really driven by characters and humor rather than event and plot. Bake definitely give you a lot of think about, but to get to that point, we have to go through a few minutes of Araragi sexually harassing Hachikuji, Nadeko hitting on Araragi, etc. That really isn't a problem as long as you can laugh at it, really, but not all of us might find it interesting. And in the case of Bakemonogatari, due to how episodic the events are, there is very little plot connection, so even less attraction for some people. Translation also hurts a ton, I've noted before how I thought it was a brilliant play for Shaft to just stuff quotations in, so many puns in Bakemonogatari are visual based rather than sound. The latter is already difficult enough to understand for non-speakers, the former is nigh impossible. Now follow that up with the references being on the most obscure side of things than most...yeah. Also, whenever Gahara-san doesn't appear Nishio Ishin is forced to fall back on moe (which is one of the reasons I love having Kanbaru around, she might well be the character least reliant on moe after Gahara-san), and that just doesn't sit well with some. EDIT - I just remembered that bungaku shoujo ova 1 should be out around now, by that I mean it has shipped, and damn, no raw. Now to make the painful decision of shipping it early or not. | ||

I decided to start watching more of Jun Maeda's works since those 4 shows were vaguely the only ones that interested me in the OP's pic. Are any of his other works worth watching? Some recommendations maybe? Not just Jun Maeda's works but anything really. Can be older since I only started actually following this thread last season, so maybe I missed some gems along the way. | ||

This is all their other work.  Oh, and watch the KyoAni versions of those shows. They're better. | ||

 @Latham: Do give B Gata H Kei a chance. The premise may sound dumb, the beginning may be a bit silly, but like Working!! it does pick up. And as for KyoAni, yes it's short for Kyoto Animations, and the only one you have to worry about is Kanon. Kanon (2006) is made by KyoAni (I forgot who made the other version). | ||

much unlike Kaichou wa Maid-sama, rofl. edit: which isn't horribly bad but...questionably not worth your time. watch it if you have way to much time on your hands if anything else. had a lot of time on my hands so yeah, I kinda tried to figure out the question I asked earlier: On June 28 2010 15:09 SwEEt[TearS] wrote: so yeah, where do they say that? Ep11 around 7-8min + Show Spoiler [who?] + ![[image loading]](http://i47.tinypic.com/8z2qo8.jpg) ![[image loading]](http://i50.tinypic.com/2yltt02.jpg) now I went with an elimination process: is he in the room where they showed the recording? + Show Spoiler [is he?] + ![[image loading]](http://i49.tinypic.com/25h0os1.jpg) Nope only girls there, the ones in the background are the evil sempais and inb4 Nanami breakdown I also got to thinking, Kumi Mori = evil incarnate? ![[image loading]](http://i50.tinypic.com/15xr2as.jpg) And you didn't even bother telling that to your best friend so she could avoid embarrassment? Kids these days, tsk. There are only a few options: Kumi Mori's mysterious boyfriend that we never see but hear so much about? + Show Spoiler [wait what?] + How would that make sense anyways? If he was that important to her (and somewhat involved with the sempais of the school I guess), would she go have a 4some with Makoto and her 2 best friend? ![[image loading]](http://i47.tinypic.com/j6s67c.jpg) ![[image loading]](http://i49.tinypic.com/mcf9mb.jpg) Makoto was secretly behind all this! + Show Spoiler [wait whaaaaat?] + No he wouldn't, 'cause when the video was made public he lost all his prospects. No girl wanted to touch him even with a 10 foot pole. Except Kotonoha ![[image loading]](http://i50.tinypic.com/2kpifs.jpg) ![[image loading]](http://i50.tinypic.com/34gulp2.jpg) (It's Makoto talking to Otome by the way, not Sekai sleep talking or something) My conclusion (please feel free to straight up tell me who it is if I missed it cause damnnnnn it makes me restless): + Show Spoiler + It could be anyone cause it's the School Days universe. Scared virgins become heartless womanizers. Epic Yandere that comes out of nowhere. It ain't a party train, it's naivety train. Does it really matter? Not really. Why do I care? well, my logic behind it is the TMI theory: useless information leads to useless questions. I figure by adding these 3 dots and 3 letters, you can open up an entire new scenario: What if all this was planned by some supersempai womanizer who was looking to recruit one more to the ranks of his supreme army of womanizers? That from the beginning, he manipulated the kids into doing certain things to ensure Makoto's rage and over 9000 conquests? OR WHAT IF HIM...WAS... YOU. ![[image loading]](http://www.lazy-sniper.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/dramatic_chipmunk.png) + Show Spoiler [lolwhat] + I originally thought of this as a joke but it actually makes sense? The sempais did it for the girls and your viewing pleasure, technically. Although you don't see any of it. But I assume you would in the game. It could be you! ![[image loading]](http://i229.photobucket.com/albums/ee15/henta10/elamoralestiloschooldaysXD.jpg) Good day. + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://www.designproductsrca.com/files/crazy-japanese-show02-copy.jpg) | ||

Ok, screw Kaichou wa Maid Sama. The episodes aren't getting any better, so I think I'll just stick to the manga from now on. What the heck? When did Shana S ep 3 come out? I just found a torrent on Tokyotosho... | ||

Kaichou wa Maid-Sama Ep13 is actually...decent. probably the best out yet IMO, IMO. the manga is far superior though and yeah when I started having to double check spoiler tags to see if the post was broken I figured I was wayyyyy too much into this. | ||

+ Show Spoiler + bahhhh filler chapter where everything is just confirmed. I wish it wasn't 1 chapter/month, it's getting unbearably long -_- but I think the volume's coming to an end and there's an 11th volume planned for September that's gonna come out with an anime pilot so I doubt the story's gonna be over anytime soon | ||

Kyo-ani plus anyone else = garbage Kyo-ani plus themselves = slightly better garbage (the only original IP they have is munto which isnt good but it's not quite lucky star) | ||
