Mmm, I stumbled across this charming series Otoyomegatari. It has awesome art and has a female lead (who is 20) who gets married off to a 12 year old lol. Set along the Silk road in pre-modern times. Pretty mundane with not a lot of excitement but its nice. It even has an anthropologist in it so can't go wrong there (bias).

was there a serious issue of pedophilia in the show ? wait what am i asking .. is the pedophilia in the show not unbearable ?

While she could be a pedophile (I don't know since I haven't read it), nothing in Slaughter's post implies that she actually is.

Maybe I misunderstood, but I swear someone said the NPCs COULD be revived with magic in a previous episode. Of course, everyone saw this coming considering Rudy lying there dead with Isuzu crying is in the OP.

Shiroe might've considered the theoretical possibilities a bit when he was getting the soul theory thing explained to him. The view up to this point is that it isn't possible though.

It's still possible the condition is that it's done immedietly after death though it seemed close enough so I was confused when I read this scene in the LN. I guess it's combination of not getting there fast enough and Rudy being low level.


This is the relevant discussion about reviving People of the Land between Shiroe and Ri Gun
+ Show Spoiler +
As the Essence started to disperse, as described before, the Essence was the source of energy for the body... Ki. Stronger and higher level bodies would take longer for the Essence to disperse. Lower levels or frail Essence would disperse in a matter of minutes, but strong Essence would take up to half a day to disperse. This process was called 'Failing Essence'.

When healers casted Resurrection, it was used on a body in such a condition. The method gathered the Essence that had dispersed around the area, reconstructed it, and sent it back into the body.

If there was not enough Ki during the reconstructing process, the healer would top off with her own Ki. The information needed for reconstructing was taken from the body in front and calculated by reverse engineering. If there were any mistake in the calculations, it would result in the resurrected player losing EXP, this was an unavoidable data corruption.

If resurrection was not used and the Essence dispersed completely, the body would not be able to maintain its form. In physical terms the body would start to decompose, People of the Land in this condition were dead... Yes, resurrection unexpectedly worked on the People of the Land. But the condition was casting it immediately after death.

Ah right, that was a thing too. Pretty much forgot about it since they keep hammering the whole permadeath thing in nonstop lol. The situation also never comes up except for that one explanation too.

The Sage of Miral Lake explains death:
  1. Your hit points reach 0, you fall and can't move. This is your basic "dead" state. But, your mind is still alive. As soon as this happens anima dispersal begins.
  2. This is where revival spells happen. Using a revival spell on an Adventurer will return the dispersed anima kind of like reversing the dispersal. The process isn't perfect, and explains the experience loss that happened before the apocalypse. (Shiroe also hypothesizes that people lose parts of their memories due to this.) The sage makes special note that revival spells WILL work on People of the Land at this point.
  3. Anima dispersal is complete. For Adventurers, they now will go to revive in a cathedral. People of the Land are permanently dead here.

That's my paraphrasing of what was said at least, but there seems to be more to it than that. Otherwise Minori and Serara would've been able to revive him.


edit: beaten to it

Yeah I remember it now that it was mentioned, been a few months since I read that.

That and I really didn't care about something that was going to be an obvious plot device later on and was more interested in the monster creation parts Also I was too busy raging at vol 6.

WCW, D-Frag, and Chuu2 are my top 3 for this season so far.

Nisekoi, Nobunaga the Fool, Hoozuki, Seki-kun, Mikakunin de Shinkoukei, Sekai Seifuku, and Inari Kon Kon are also solid shows.

The Holdovers rank like this for me but they are all good.
1. KLK
2. Strike the Blood
3. Golden Time

Only 1 show has been dropped so far: Sakura Trick. Mikakunin de Shinkoukei and Hoozuki are the most vulnerable to being dropped in the future.


Edit: Also I put Chihayafuru on hold after 3-4 episodes. So far its pretty meh. Will probably continue at some point based purely on people here saying its good but it will have a short leash.

Its set in times when that is considered normal (except the guy is usually older). So no, although the female lead at times wishes the male lead would "grow up faster" lol. The whole issue of sex really hasn't been a thing yet, plus it would be normal if they were doing it in this context since they are married.

The manga is pretty, really pretty at that. Sadly there isn't anything else.

I'm not a hater, but he is an idiot (something he is keenly aware of). Issei didn't really do any actual work for his harem, he kinda just fell into a pile of girls who all want his dick. He has this strange quality of being one of the biggest perverts but also being afraid of women (thankfully later this is explained and fixed). The HS DxD novels have a special place in my heart. So entertaining and the author clearly is just going for broke on boobs and fights while not giving any fucks, its glorious.

Yeah, I just really hate the clueless (Ichika) stereotype whos falls into the pile of girls anyway so I can forgive Issei's failings, haha. My favorite mc in that genre was the guy from seitokai no ichizon but that was a while back.

lol this anime. Secret identities and wearing masks now. Wonder where they're aiming for next and if Robin girl's identity and the MC will ever be discovered(to each other).

I actually wish Rudy would stay dead. Even though I grew to like his character and their teamwork, I think the emotional scene would've been much stronger in that case. Wonder how Rudy would be revived. Minori would probably think twice about running off like that even if she's mini-Shiroe. Overall, not a bad episode. Lenessia and Crusty is being step up well enough; "Even though he's enjoying fighting, he looks sad? lonely?". Glad that we got some fighting as well. Those wolves did seem to come out of nowhere though considering it was mostly goblins that they were expecting.

Edit: Also I put Chihayafuru on hold after 3-4 episodes. So far its pretty meh. Will probably continue at some point based purely on people here saying its good but it will have a short leash.

someone who's watching as much anime as I am, hooray! lol.


All I have been doing this semester is reading, writing, teaching, and watching anime lol. It seems everyone I know in my circle of friends in the department this semester have 10000x they are doing so none of us get out much.

Don't diss Issei :c, he worked on his harem (kinda sorta maybe) unlike certain other protagonists...


I'm not a hater, but he is an idiot (something he is keenly aware of). Issei didn't really do any actual work for his harem, he kinda just fell into a pile of girls who all want his dick. He has this strange quality of being one of the biggest perverts but also being afraid of women (thankfully later this is explained and fixed). The HS DxD novels have a special place in my heart. So entertaining and the author clearly is just going for broke on boobs and fights while not giving any fucks, its glorious.

ya, I get you. Just scratch out the teaching and add studying instead lol. Well, the semester will be over soon enough. Given, masters and phd students don't usually get a break Chuu2's episode yesterday was good as well. + Show Spoiler +
Napping competition! We score you on how you sleep, how fast, your posture, how fast you wake up lols. Can't believe they made a whole episode on napping XD When Yuta and Satone woke up, then Rikka seeing them sleeping next to each other. She's like What the hell! LOL. Then Satone touches her nose and tells her that it's hers, What the hell! XD Too jokes lol.


Yea and this summer I will be in the field in Mexico so no anime for me :[

WCW, D-Frag, and Chuu2 are my top 3 for this season so far.

Nisekoi, Nobunaga the Fool, Hoozuki, Seki-kun, Mikakunin de Shinkoukei, Sekai Seifuku, and Inari Kon Kon are also solid shows.

The Holdovers rank like this for me but they are all good.

:O ya, that's rough. Hope you still drop by the thread. I don't mind giving a lengthy writeup on episodes lol.

Niseoki: + Show Spoiler +
please teach her how to swim, she doesn't know how and needs to be ready by tommorrow. As if that's not out of the blue and suspicious lol. Well, at least he got to try out some key even though it was the wrong one XD Onodera seems to be catching on to the fact that he might be the one who promised her 10 years back and he is as well. It's too bad that I doubt we'll get any resolution for this until the end of the anime. Onodera also wishing she was the one drowning so that he can save her lol. More of the same, love it! :D
. You guys think the anime will have an anime ending or will they just take a break once they finish the planned amount of episodes if the manga is likely to continue indefinitely?

Finished Okami-san good series. I'd rate it like a 7.5/10 since its only 12 episodes. If they made it a full 24+ It would of been a whole lot better I bet; then it would totally be like 8.5+. JC Staff did a real good job with the fight scenes they were quite good.

Hopefully there will be a season 2 some day. Looking forward to it.

So since I saw a lenghty debate about monogatari back then I suspect everyone here has watched it.
Thing that I didnt like and still dont are the real cutscenes ie wristwatch or when Hitagi is scaring Araragi with the pen (where the real face pops up), then there was real opening of some sort (Tsubasa Cat story) reminded me of (mahou shoujo madoka magica).
That would be it I guess.
I liked the stories, characters, and those "Red Screen" "Black Screen" "Animation Number none" frames. I wouldnt know that if I would be watching it on pc cus it doesnt render those subtitles. But I did that on GT-I9100 so now I know.
One thing, there was no story about becoming a vampire? Some sentences were brought up at some points.. last episode t name one.
One thing to ask, those "real frames" are going to show up through the whole series or they stopped on first one?

The mum will turn into a monster or another real final boss will show up. Goddamn that dat ass of kiryuin....for sure she is the main character of the anime....

I suspected something like this would happen in the first few episodes of anime (Satsuki and Ryuuko teaming up against common enemy) , was sure when they introduced the mother.

Bigfan Nisekoi will never end in manga lol .. its still a long way to go .. probably 10 more to be introduced that gets Harem-snatched by Rakku and the manga will end.. although i think anime will maybe get 2-3 seasons but i guess they will improvise their ending.

And guys bigfan is giving hints about his age with the knowledge about how college,masters and phd works. He is definitely not a kid .. probably 18+

Kizumonogatari deals with the vampire stuff, but it is currently in development hell.
