If you come in here looking for "anime recommendations" then please refer to this chart before posting: Anime Recommendations (as of may 2014). We also have an IRC channel called #tladt where we all hang out. The channel is on Rizon, not QuakeNet! Feel free to check it out. TLADT discord is Discord.gg

Not a manga reader and overall I thought the anime original series of Tokyo Ghoul was overall better/more entertaining than the first season. A shitload of flaws. But overall more entertaining / better. But, Tokyo Ghouls ep 12 was downright awful for so many reasons I don't even know where to begin.
Social Justice is a fools errand. May all the adherents at its church be thwarted. Of all the religions I have come across, it is by far the most detestable.

Technically it's Katō I guess, but we won't bother looking for that accent everytime haha. Like Tokyo.

ugh...waiting for 2nd Saekano so i can watch them back to back.

So, after tokyo ghoul's ending episode, there's a literal shit storm of people raging about how it ended/how different it was from the manga and whatnot. I'm over here like....you all knew it was gonna be anime original from the beginning right? Everybody knew that. Everybody should also have known the mangaka came on as a supervisor and helped direct it into something different from the manga b/c he wanted to tell a different story. That's also been known. These kids are just going bat shit crazy over TG. It wasn't even that good all season long. Like seriously, interesting premise, but terrible terrible storytelling.

Haven't watched it yet but agree, people get too caught up and mad whenever things don't go a certain way. In this case, despite knowing from the beginning of this season that Tokyo Ghoul will not be following the manga this season resulting in an anime original ending, you still get people raging that things are different lol.

Akame ga kill got some of this as well though to be fair, they were following the manga closely there then started skipping things that even I, someone who didn't read the manga noticed (black bullet was notorious for this too toward its end). Either way, let them rage. Maybe they'll get tired soon enough?

It's more so that the anime original ending was complete flaming garbage + Show Spoiler +
practically half the episode of touka running and kaneki walking, really?
, not so much that it diverged from what was "supposed to" happen (though I imagine that rankled a lot of manga readers as well).

All in all a pretty poor adaption :/.

hmm well, even if the ending was garbage (haven't watched it yet), I was more referring to the general comments. Like, people will know that its anime original and will complain from the first till last episode. Always with the same comments: this is worse than manga or manga didn't do it this way or why did they change it etc...

It's fine if someone wants to complain in the first episode or two. After all, I can understand why you'd be disappointed if the anime didn't follow the manga but to keep complaining for the whole time the anime is airing is just ridiculous and annoying for posters who want to focus on the anime only (I personally don't care since I just skip haha) but it was something I noticed quite a bit at times. Good thing we don't get that here

Akatsuki no Yona: + Show Spoiler +
personally, I liked the ending. It had a great closure for now until season 2 comes around. Anything announced? Loved all the jokes as usual. They seem to have struck that delicate balance between being serious and joking. That Huk and Yona moment was nice. Also, Yona finally deciding on what to do after that unexpected but good question.

Parasyte: + Show Spoiler +
OMG I thought she actually died at first but then once I saw his hand and him crying, wondered if Migi caught it and he didn't notice. Fast forward and yes, he did, relief! lol. I would've loved to hear him confess it to Murano tbh. I was hoping it would've happened even if it had to happen there forcefully. At least, we would've gone through it and seen her reaction and such. Still, a satisfying ending and gonna miss this. Too bad there's no season 2. Him coexisting with Migi, working together and facing his fears or keeping calm even under pressure were all stuff I enjoyed.

because people don't know that u after a vowel = long vowel in most cases and think writing out Katou would make it sound something like ka-to-yu I guess?
Just like how toukyou is just written tokyo as well.

Was a pretty good ending...but only if there's another season coming. There's so much more i want to see from all these characters. And that TTGL cover...so good.

I just hope we get a 2nd season for it. I don't think we will but that was over way too quickly

Easily AOTS.

Also since new season is starting soonish, I'm holding people up to this:

Youre supposed to go more skimpy and half naked girls in your new anime. Youre going back to moe girls with musical instruments. Thats now how youre supposed to progress T_T

episode 1-6, moe
episode 7, you see one of the band members and how she doesn't actually like to play her instrument
episode 8, the other girls find out about her past, how her parents forced her to play the instrument even though she didn't want to play. It's always been her dads dream to be a great musician after all. She grew up to hate the instrument but obediently did as her father said.
episode 9, shit's going down the drain. She's all emo, when beeing seen by others she's in rage, when alone she doesn't know what to do and is about to tear up. Her friends don't know what to do either because they saw that she really doesn't like to play the instrument so can't just go there and be like "yo, why not just play with us and have fun"
episode 10, in a dramatic turn of events she takes her instrument and runs away from home in an attempt to trash it and be freed from her shackles. Her Father finds out and gets mad at her. Now shit's really going down the drain
episode 11, she actually gets away with the instrument, sits on a bridge (most likely not one that crosses a road because dropping a tuba onto a driving car is dangerous kids) thinking about the times she had with it [note: in relation to her dad+instrument and being forced to play it, not the times she had with the instrument and her friends!] and gets mad before actually trashing the thing. Her friends find her, just as the thing falls down/deforms into irrecognizability (is that a word? Important slow motion scene of her instrument getting trashed as it hits the ground though), talk to her and she discovers the love she's always had for the instrument she thought she hated when really it was just her being a bitch yelling "I don't wanna" for the sake of being a rebellious little shit. She remembers all the fun times she has had with her friends playing together, shit gets teary as she looks down at what used to be her instrument, they all hug each other and cry.
episode 12 fast-forward, they show how the girls spend time getting money to get her a new instrument (that's shown really quickly, like 60 seconds), time-skip a month later, they're sitting in their band room / school's music room having fun playing the intruments they love so much and they're playing better than they ever did before.

What do I get if that's the story? Now to read the synopsis of it and see if any of that actually makes sense.


if you win I shall call you the prophet of the moe.

[10:22:21] <Wikt|uni> Worst girl


cowgirl michiru, she wants to set-up group date for him with friends from her school saying he'd have no problems at all and can just pick whoever he wants. What more do you want. Only best-imouto from oregairu is better.

Her to not destroy all my worldly possessions because she doesn't like my hobby. Worst girl.

In terms of best imouto, that would probably go to Ui off the top of my head.
