He also liked SAO it was basically fanservice. I don't get how he does not like monogatari -_-

Fate Zero is amazing ! regarding if you should watch FSN it's up to you. I watched it before watching fate zero but it's also fine to watch fate zero without FSN.

but i have to warn you Fate stay night is shit. Some may say that you will only consider it shit if you haven't played VN but FSN is shit compared to other action anime's. Just a warning. So if ever you watch FSN before FZ go ahead just don't expect too much about FSN.

People who have never read the VN shouldn't talk about this shit. No one will ever say the anime is anything other than shit. In fact, people who have read the VN probably think its more shit than you do. But the anime's quality has no bearing on the VN's quality, and unless I'm drastically misunderstanding your post, you probably shouldn't call something you have never read "shit".

Sent, that is why i said that "Some may say that you will only consider it shit if you haven't played VN" since i have not played the VN and my judgement about it being shit is only based on the anime.. Not everyone plays VN sent i know alot of anime fans who never play one.

Then say that, you made it sound like people who have read the VN don't consider the anime shit.

Don't get me wrong, IS definitely had some massive fanservice for some episodes. One such episode that comes to mind is that stupid birthday episode which I hated but I still liked most of the character's personalities and the quirkness of the show (mech wasn't too bad either) which is why I continued to watch it.

He also liked SAO the whole show looked like fanservice for me. I don't get how he does not like monogatari -_-

SAO was fanservice? hmm maybe my definition of fanservice is different then. There wasn't much fanservice in the first 14 episodes or so of SAO. There was a bit in the later episodes but nothing major minus that one fight episode towards the end.

+ Show Spoiler [def'n] +
For the record, I mostly consider sexual situations such as going to the beach in bathing suits etc... as fanservice. Characters just holding hands, flirting (verbally? lol) etc... aren't that big of a service and I don't consider them as such. Characters hugging? really depends on how it's presented (some cases, it'll be obvious that its fanservice, other times it's just a quick hug).

If I am to believe wikipedia, then fight scenes, violence and long, full shots of robots in mecha shows are also fanservice lol but I don't see them as such. It's not like I gush at any of those and violent scenes like that episode 2 in Akuma can turn me off an anime so ya, I think I have my own definition of what fanservice is.


Btw, I don't hate monogatari, where did you hear that? lol. It's ok so far. I think some parts are humorous and I plan on watching some more of it before I say whether I will continue or not (I might just watch an arc a day or something). As an extra point: + Show Spoiler +
2nd episode of monogatari, even before anything is done, crab is already showing the MC herself when she is in her underwear and such. She says it's to thank him. It would be understandable if she's been helped already but it felt really out of place. I guess not having much people to talk to does that to you lol but ya, I don't hate it.

What episode 14 ? it started to diminish like episode 4 of the show. Instead of focusing on the survival,dark , action-packed,fantasy part of the show which what was introduced in the beginning. They suddenly turned it into what every SOL anime is like with all the + Show Spoiler +
"let's get married" fanservice, "let's spend the honeymoon together in some beach " fucking fanservice.


Where is the grimmy, action, survival show that the show advertised ? Yeah the occassional fight scene's were great but everything else was shit..

Kirito at the beginning was like a cool, strong independent character and asuna was so badass. I don't mind romance between them as long as you know they didn't goddamn focus the romance like i am watching chunnibyou instead of some virtual action fantasy.

Basically everything that was introduced in the beginning of the show that hooked me in was not retained. They replaced it with what every single mediocre action,fantasy anime has shown that involved a harem. A really shitty whiny MC, a helpless female character and every single awesome part of it was turned into garbage . I am thankful that the fight scene were still quite good even when Kirito's plotarmor is unbelievable.

Well to be fair the LN was also like that so there was nothing to complain about since they are just following the source material.

Enough with the SAO rant. It's clear that i hate SAO.

lol ok bigfan .. i just assumed you hated it since you don't talk about it and i thought it was one of the shows you like

Unlimited Blade Works is mediocre but should be fine. Compared to the series i was cringing the hell when i was watching FSN series. Emiya is fucking annoying.


Just bare it until episode 6 then its okay to drop the show. I think you'll like it.

@BigFan there's a difference between hate and dislike I just believe you would dislike the show.

You asked that exact question in the irc a few days ago and we told you that you were an idiot and plenty of people were watching.

unfortunately I think the anime will probably only run up to the gourmet arc, I really am liking the Aogiri arc and I can't wait for the translators to catch up.

unfortunately I think the anime will probably only run up to the gourmet arc, I really am liking the Aogiri arc and I can't wait for the translators to catch up.

Yeah getting up through Aogiri would probably need like at least 24-26 eps depending on how they paced stuff.

Monogatari is about talking and fanservice. There isn't much of anything else to speak of. So if you think talking is excessive and you are only to like episode 3 or something, then lol

a bit of fanservice here and there is ok but too much is not something I like.

Didn't you like Infinite Stratos

He also liked SAO the whole show looked like fanservice for me. I don't get how he does not like monogatari -_-

SAO was fanservice? hmm maybe my definition of fanservice is different then. There wasn't much fanservice in the first 14 episodes or so of SAO. There was a bit in the later episodes but nothing major minus that one fight episode towards the end.

+ Show Spoiler [def'n] +
For the record, I mostly consider sexual situations such as going to the beach in bathing suits etc... as fanservice. Characters just holding hands, flirting (verbally? lol) etc... aren't that big of a service and I don't consider them as such. Characters hugging? really depends on how it's presented (some cases, it'll be obvious that its fanservice, other times it's just a quick hug).

If I am to believe wikipedia, then fight scenes, violence and long, full shots of robots in mecha shows are also fanservice lol but I don't see them as such. It's not like I gush at any of those and violent scenes like that episode 2 in Akuma can turn me off an anime so ya, I think I have my own definition of what fanservice is.


Btw, I don't hate monogatari, where did you hear that? lol. It's ok so far. I think some parts are humorous and I plan on watching some more of it before I say whether I will continue or not (I might just watch an arc a day or something). As an extra point: + Show Spoiler +
2nd episode of monogatari, even before anything is done, crab is already showing the MC herself when she is in her underwear and such. She says it's to thank him. It would be understandable if she's been helped already but it felt really out of place. I guess not having much people to talk to does that to you lol but ya, I don't hate it.


What episode 14 ? it started to diminish like episode 4 of the show. Instead of focusing on the survival,dark , action-packed,fantasy part of the show which what was introduced in the beginning. They suddenly turned it into what every SOL anime is like with all the + Show Spoiler +
"let's get married" fanservice, "let's spend the honeymoon together in some beach " fucking fanservice.


Where is the grimmy, action, survival show that the show advertised ? Yeah the occassional fight scene's were great but everything else was shit..

Kirito at the beginning was like a cool, strong independent character and asuna was so badass. I don't mind romance between them as long as you know they didn't goddamn focus the romance like i am watching chunnibyou instead of some virtual action fantasy.

Basically everything that was introduced in the beginning of the show that hooked me in was not retained. They replaced it with what every single mediocre action,fantasy anime has shown that involved a harem. A really shitty whiny MC, a helpless female character and every single awesome part of it was turned into garbage . I am thankful that the fight scene were still quite good even when Kirito's plotarmor is unbelievable.

Well to be fair the LN was also like that so there was nothing to complain about since they are just following the source material.

Enough with the SAO rant. It's clear that i hate SAO.

lol ok bigfan .. i just assumed you hated it since you don't talk about it and i thought it was one of the shows you like

I'm interested in watching Fate/Zero. It looks good from what I've seen but should I watch Fate/Stay Night first or vice versa?

Fate Zero is amazing ! regarding if you should watch FSN it's up to you. I watched it before watching fate zero but it's also fine to watch fate zero without FSN.

but i have to warn you Fate stay night is shit. Some may say that you will only consider it shit if you haven't played VN but FSN is shit compared to other action anime's. Just a warning. So if ever you watch FSN before FZ go ahead just don't expect too much about FSN.

People who have never read the VN shouldn't talk about this shit. No one will ever say the anime is anything other than shit. In fact, people who have read the VN probably think its more shit than you do. But the anime's quality has no bearing on the VN's quality, and unless I'm drastically misunderstanding your post, you probably shouldn't call something you have never read "shit".

Sent, that is why i said that "Some may say that you will only consider it shit if you haven't played VN" since i have not played the VN and my judgement about it being shit is only based on the anime.. Not everyone plays VN sent i know alot of anime fans who never play one.

Then say that, you made it sound like people who have read the VN don't consider the anime shit.


I thought i emphasized that clearly when i mentioned about the statement of VN readers. Welp i'll do a better job next time sent.

lol goody. You clearly hate SAO XD + Show Spoiler +
I'll agree that it was bizzare for them to just pick up and leave from the battlefield however they wanted a break from it all. That should be understandable considering they've been grinding away for months at that point. If you were to say that the second half needed work, I would agree but the first wasn't that bad lol. Agree to disagree?


@bolded wait, I'm confused, so did you assume I hate or like monogatari? lol.

I know i am not supposed to enjoy the so i gave it a try. Surprisingly i got entertained by it and i will keep watching until it's unbearable.

emiya was too annoying to watch the entire series
maybe watch the unl blade works movie instead?

He may be right.

Unlimited Blade Works is mediocre but should be fine. Compared to the series i was cringing the hell when i was watching FSN series. Emiya is fucking annoying.


Just bare it until episode 6 then its okay to drop the show. I think you'll like it.

@BigFan there's a difference between hate and dislike I just believe you would dislike the show.

Edit: Inugami-san to Nekoyama-san so much diabetes everywhere.

on the fence right now. Will wait and see before deciding whether I dislike it or no. It's quite possible I'll dislike it given Sent's statement.
