Is what's hilarious the fact that people don't realize that jump harem series won't end?

Why they put hayamin on a sister that I don't like and put hanakana on a student council pres that I do like ;;

enjoy it while you can because eventually it'll get to the point where even BigFan will want to kill himself.

Just depends on if the author can keep the quality up. I don't know where this notion of never ending or having no choice by th lead comes from. Its actually much more frequent that the MC makes a choice and it ends. The open non-end is a minority.

I don't trust the author to keep the quality up, consistency is hard for any mangaka, especially these kinds of harems.
|
Not all mangaka can be Oda or Ken Ishikawa, unfortunately :<
|
It's actually most frequent for authors to drag series on as long as possible until people lose interest, it gets cancelled, and he throws together some crap ending. It's pretty hilarious every time people try to dissect endings resulting from cancellation.
|
I wonder, what would be better? A series getting canceled and therefore getting a rushed, crap ending, or the mangaka just dying and leaving the series without any ending, right after a huge cliffhanger?

I dunno, a shitty rushed ending can really turn your entire perspective of something upside down, depending on how bad it is.

Still much better than a cliffhanger. Although there are times that a cliffhanger/open ending is sort of better.

I just hope they make season 2 sooner rather then later. So much good stuff happens after the festival arc.

2nd Worst City in CA8938 Posts
So this week I managed to finish two anime and not just one!
The first anime I watched was Magi S2. I started watching it hesitantly because I didn't like S1 all that much, although it had its moments and I really do like Aladdin and tsundere-hime. Alibaba, however, is a pain to watch and I'm glad he got much, much less screen time in S2. That already made things a lot better. I really enjoyed all the middle episodes, but the beginning (before they split up) was more of S1 silliness, and the end was a bit dragged on and bleh. I enjoyed the whole Aladdin-in-school bits. Ishihara Kaori plays her role as Aladdin phenomenally and makes the show that much better. Having Sakamoto Maaya on a really-old-yet-loli character is always nice too.
Personally I'd rate Magi S2 a 7.5, but because it's MAL I will be giving it a 7 as I don't think it's good enough to round up to an 8.
The second anime I watched was Jinrui wa Suitaishimashita. What a show. I don't think you can nail a role harder than Nakahara Mai did as the MC. She was just picture perfect, and thanks to her acting, the MC (hereby dubbed Jinsui-chan) is now one of my favorite characters of all time. The fairies were absolutely adorable and hilarious, and the episodes in which they got a lot of screen time were certainly the best. The interactions between Jinsui-chan and the fairies were always amazing. Episode 9, where they got stuck on the island and created a nation, was one of the single most brilliant episodes of any anime I have ever seen. I just finished episode 12 and I haven't come that close to crying in a very long time. I had tears in my eyes but I managed to hold them back. That fairy and that ending... absolutely beautiful.
Jinsui is brilliant, cute, original, and hilarious. It's unfortunate that not every episode is as good as episode 9, but they are all good nonetheless. The show gets a solid 9/10 from me.
I think tonight or tomorrow night I will be starting on some of the old Gundam stuff to get ready for Gundam Unicorn. I haven't watched any mecha in a while (the last one I watched I think was Break Blade last year), so I'm kind of excited. :>

Nisekoi: + Show Spoiler +Both Onodera and Kirisaki acting way differently (or asking for a kiss) only for Raku to completely fall sleep or misunderstand? :O Well, not really that surprising when you think about it. He's been told that Onodera likes him in a previous episode but then he forgot about that it seems so I guess it's pretty normal for him to be this dense lol. Credits to Onodera for having the guts to ask for a kiss and for Kirisaki for being more open with Onodera and at least finally recognizing her feelings for Raku. I just hope that Raku eventually realizes that they both like him like he did with Maria but not expecting that for a long time

I particularly don't like much of the episode. I feel like there are just excessive fan service included was completely unnecessary. I hope they don't do that again. There are times having too much amount of fan service hurts the quality. Man i love the battle between Kosaki and Kirisaki for raku's affection and they ain't even aggressive against each other. + Show Spoiler [manga reader only] + Sadly it won't budge much maybe after 50 more episodes T_T The next couple of episodes is gonna be good  + Show Spoiler +ya, the episode seemed to have a lot more fanservice than usual. Kinda wished they turned it down a notch but maybe it was due to it being a beach episode and such. I think they should've just focused on Kirisaki for this one but it feels like they tried to do too many things at once.

I would've preferred if they just focused on one of them, maybe Kirisaki since Onodera got that really nice episode. At least both Kirisaki and Onodera are good friends and can talk to each other. Wonder how long it'll take them to figure out that they both like Raku. My guess is a ton of time lol.

Stick a fork in my eye. + Show Spoiler +How the hell does Raku have a moment like that with Onodera and then fall asleep? And here I was thinking he might be better than a lot of harem MC's....
Nope.
+ Show Spoiler +Yes! That part wasn't great :/ More so since he finally got to sit with her but hey, even if you are with someone you like, if you are really lacking sleep, you'll likely pass out or fall in and out of it. Weak excuse but sadly, it can be legit

+ Show Spoiler [Nisekoi EP 18] + Yeah, a lot of fan service in Nisekoi 18 but I still like every episode with Chitoge somehow, it's fun. Although not much progress being made, story wise
