Also, I just started Toradora! and I am on episode 16. Pretty good stuff, I didn't think I would find an anime of these genre(s) quite this good. | ||

At least it doesn't feel like any other possibility is possible. Also, the spoiler screenshot is badass, makes me want a PSP to play. It was rumored that Nasu came up with the servants and approved the story, but I don't know if that's true or not. What was Black Rock Shooter about? I never really understood the previews. Edit: lolwut. gg made an abridged version for Black Rock Shooter. | ||

don't really wanna spoil much (even if it's a 2006 anime) but man it's a great ride. all the subplots actually bring something to the story and help deepen the characters. so many themes too (MMORPG addiction, depression, paranoia, otakuism, bipolarity. conspiracy theories and many more) that makes it so you're never bored. + Show Spoiler [Misaki ending spoiler] + I think I'm broken or something, I keep wishing characters end up Yandere. that blank expression in Misaki's eyes when and after she sees Tatsuhiro with his senpai screamed for some axe action, ffs. | ||

You are broken, and based on interpretation that ending can be worse than just a + Show Spoiler + regular yandere ending BRS is another case where the doujin culture comes to live. Think Touhou but with a vocaloid vid. | ||

Think Touhou but with a vocaloid vid. I think it's a deformation after watching and reading School Days yeah I don't know what to make of the ending either, but I just saw it as + Show Spoiler + "life is hard but must go on whatever happens". it's not a good or bad ending, more like a human ending. I read the translated novel here and I have to say making it a 24ep anime was a good choice. it seems like those 11 chapters are short and it's like, a 10min read at most but there's so much depth that just can't be explained by words and can only work with time. like I said I liked the subplots despite them not affecting the main story because they didn't have that tacked on feeling. on the contrary the passage of time they allowed was the right way to convey the inexplicable feelings, as some sort of form of empathy. the ending feels much darker for the novel + Show Spoiler ['cause...] + because there doesn't seem like there's hope. everyone moves on but Satou kinda goes back to his old ways, aside from the fact he has to work (a bare minimum) to live now. I think I'll read the manga soon enough, seeing how it's completed and all. need to finish re-reading Chobits first, damn it's been a while since I read that. | ||

Except Kotomine, obviously. + Show Spoiler [Fate/Extra] + Yeah, I heard she was an enemy servant or something. I wonder how this affects Nasuverse power level comparisons. Also: ![[image loading]](http://i28.tinypic.com/2q3aaua.png)  And motherfucking Lu Bu is berserker. And Shirou returns. And by Shirou, I mean Archer. The game is taking place in a virtual reality or something. The explanations weren't too clear. + Show Spoiler [Fate/Extra] + I doubt the game will really effect power level discussions. I mean, people will obviously bring it up, but bringing it up would make about as much sense as bringing up Melty Blood tier lists, or how good someone is in Fate Unlimited/Codes. And lol is that Rougi Shiki? I guess being in Melty Blood isn't enough for her haha | ||

A Recap? 4 Episodes in? That makes no sense whatsoever. If it wasn't for the fact that I don't really like to drop shows it would be dropped now. + Show Spoiler [Ookami-San episode 4] + This series started off really bad but has been getting a little better over the past couple weeks, I approve. Not really sure about the whole maid thing, and it'd be nice to see what they actually did to make the people pay back their debts, but whatever. + Show Spoiler [Shiki episode 3] + The little girl is awesome. Best show of the season right here, first couple episodes were kinda slow but this is really picking up. I think i'm going to have to read the manga at some point, too. + Show Spoiler [ Seitokai episode 4] + After a complete trainwreck episode 3 and an okay episode 2, they actually picked it up a little bit. Still on the verge of dropping, but still provides some entertainment value. I can already see the Tsuda/shino shipping though. | ||

Haters gonna hate the fact that the OVA wasn't a mindless 1.5 hour fight with Death Master and BRS, although that may have been quite enjoyable. On July 26 2010 16:09 FragKrag wrote: The school scenes were the best, but the fighting so little sense T_T Really? I thought it was pretty straight forward. BRS and DM are alter-egos of the main characters and what they do parallels what's happening in the real world. A lot of people have been saying that since the director or Haruhi directed this everything isn't in chronological order i.e school scenes up 'till main character finding Yomi's star strap -> merge with BRS -> all BRS scenes -> ending. | ||

The plot was way too kill'em all, but the Mobile Suits in this show were alot more creative than what you see in other Gundam shows, and had some interesting designs. The battles were good too. With this, I've pretty much finished most Gundam shows, and have now seen all the major ones. Next up is LoGH I guess. I honestly believe that everyone would die at the end. Kill 'em all Tomino let me down =) | ||

And Katejina. But I guess killing all of the Shrike Team was a better idea than killing those two >_> You know, looking back, Zeta Gundam had an even more Kill 'em All end than Victory, which kind of surprises me. | ||
