I know Funimation is doing it, and normally I don't mind the Funimation Stream. But I just have a really hard time watching the Funimation stream for this show. The color scheme, contrast, and just overall video quality is really shitty. One Piece's stream isn't nearly as bad as the LoLH stream is that regard. And then if you are like me, and get a week or so behind, watching old videos is done with Hulu, and AdBlocker doesn't block the 5 billion ads they throw at you on the Hulu stream. | ||

PLEASE don't fuck this anime up! It's already fucked up. The characters are like #annoying and #dumbfuck in that trailer. | ||

 amagami manga is really good but i hate how they have different artist for different arc (anime + manga) the style, the drawing are too much different from each others make its hard to compare between... the current arc's style is soooo shoujo-like (or school day-like to be exact) >.< and its so different from the 1st arc which i was enjoying :< | ||

Well Excellen is pretty much acting the exact same way as she does in game, so I don't know how anyone can suggest that's already fucked up lol. At any case, she is just in super high tension during combat, so should be fine rest of the time. Probably. Now I want to dig up my OG2 to replay. | ||

The dialogue means nothing to me if the voice is annoying. The contrast between the two voices doesn't help matters. Like the trailer started off well and then bam it turns into a shitfest with their convo. If they don't act like that all the time, that's fine, but it's detracting from the already generic battle scenes in the trailer for me. Guess it's a love it or hate it kind of a series. Oh and the you-would-like-it-if-you-played-the-game argument is pointless and pretty insulting to any series; anyone who says that just degraded it to a weak series at best. Keep in mind that this isn't the same as saying you would like it more if you knew about the series. And since I feel the need to qualify that previous statement some more, I am not speaking to anyone specifically. | ||

In Nekomonogatari (the latest? Bakemonogatari volume) there's a listing of the books planned... looks like they're going Mayoi -> Suruga -> Nadeko -> Shinobu -> Hitagi, with the last one being Koimonogatari (love story) and being subtitled Hitagi End. So I guess it's winding down (last one is scheduled for 12/2011, looks like he's churning out a volume every 3 months.) | ||

All we are saying, I think, is that since you haven't played the game, you don't really know enough about her personality, history, and stuff like that, so you can't really make informed decisions about the character. Also, since you are saying 'they', does that mean Kyosuke (the guy) was annoying too? Hes just your token "bad ass" robot pilot who punches other robots do death with his robot. Generic? Maybe. Annoying? I disagree. | ||

Annoying? I disagree. Ecael already cleared up the girl. It's just the dumbest shit to present a nice intro to the preview (like oh hey there might be more than just giant robots fighting here) and then fuck it up with that sequence of generically (annoying) characters. Kyosuke was annoying because of the contrast between the two, going from one extreme to the other is pretty jarring so it's not helping his character; from childishly playful to john rambo was pretty wtf. Keeping in mind I am speaking from a pretty unbiased point of view, sure I might not know the game, but this was the anime's chance to make me like it, make me go look it up, or make me want to. Obviously I am using me as someone who's coming in on a blank slate. | ||

It does nothing regarding a plot, etc. so... Oh of course it does, I am not doubting that all, but like I said, the first part peaked my interest as someone who likes this genre of anime since it suggested not just standard giants robots on a battlefield, then those two show up and it went down hill from there.... Based on what Ecael and Sentenal have suggested, there's probably more there, but I shouldn't need supplemental information from the game to figure that out. | ||

Didn't see this post lol, so looking forward to Koimonogatari here because I am immensely interested in what Nishio Ishin plans to do with Gahara-san after Nise vol 1. Also Nekomonogatari was scary in a way, really, really scary. On September 05 2010 07:26 Judicator wrote: Ecael already cleared up the girl.

The contrast between Kyousuke and Excellen was funnier in game where we don't have to put up with voice, tbh I have to say that Excellen's voice is kinda annoying too. Well, that can't be helped, the two has decent character developments though so I am fine in general with OG2. As for the last paragraph, honestly, OG is a series designed for people who likes the games already. I don't really see people who are new to the series enjoying it all that much. Anyway, I want to replay OG, now to figure out how to make GBA games work. | ||
