Speaking of which, do we have any serious magicians battle anime? HxH. Not sure if nen system counts as magic, but it's close enough. | ||

Caught up to the latest episode. Great stuff! Good balance between the comedy moments and being serious. Yes, exactly! + Show Spoiler + Lots of character development and the story is interesting as well. I like the OP and the way they mostly stuck to music instead of the usual song in other anime. Yona is looking so cute as well and I like the fact that she's making an effort to become stronger instead of just whine about it and have Hak and co protect her. I did find it a bit funny that the white dragon just joined them like that but they did show him with his blood boiling which was a sign so I anticipate that the other three dragons will have similar signs that they should join Yona, Hak and Yun. I do wonder if it'll be an episode for each dragon or if they'll have to do more. Either way, it's been good so far. I can't wait to see Yona be a badass like back in episode 2 and wonder what moon's and that fire tribe's second son will think once it's revealed that she's still alive. I can't see her protecting the kingdom if he's ruling it but I also can't see her causing chaos indirectly by revealing herself so I wonder what she'll decide there. Can't wait for more episodes! :D On December 14 2014 09:09 XenOmega wrote: There's still an aura around Illya that makes me like her the most.

Although I guess I shouldn't be surprised, given how many liked Valvrave and Code Geass R2. dont be sour sent, GBF has been lacking in the last few episodes, G:Re is pretty meh tbh. So the 'so bad it is good' entertaining value of crossange is through the roof atm lol | ||

In all the other online communities I keep track of, Cross Ange is a joke, thus my surprise that people actually like it here. And its a similar surprise to people here actually liking Valvrave when it aired. If you don't like GBF or G Reko, well, thats not my problem, nor do I really care. I didn't even mention them. | ||

I haven't kept up with half the series I started watching but judging from this thread it seemed like Cross Ange got epicly awesome. Though I'm going to watch Yuuna too due to 2 people here. | ||

What results is a feature full of twists for the sake of themselves (as in, without proper foreshadowing and progression), and controversial material for the sake of being controversial (it used to be mass murder and gore, now its rape and mass murder). Its an unfortunate trend that started back with Code Geass R2, continued with Gundam 00s2, was further pioneered and experimented with Valvrave, and now refined with Cross Ange. As far as I can gather, people are enjoying these for "the ride", but such a thing beyond me. im curious as to how far into it you've actually watched. Every complaint you have stopped after like the 3rd or 4th episode. On December 14 2014 12:09 SK.Testie wrote: So Cross Ange isn't good?

Though I'm going to watch Yuuna too due to 2 people here. well i donno, it's all on opinion, but i've been really enjoying cross ange, It gets better with each episode. The start had some rough things (it feels more like they were just feeling out what to do) but after like 4 episodes or so, it starts getting better and better. Also, Yuki Yuuna was a huge surprise for me...i wasn't even gonna watch it until somebody made me. It starts all SOL-esque but then takes some turns darker (sort of like madoka...that's really the one that it feels like the most. People are always comparing the two, and i can see why...it feels like the creator(s) were watching Madoka and were like...hey we can make that). This last episode had a really awesome twist though and the fantasy of it got really interesting | ||
