Finished dark souls2 and couldn't find any game like it so I read berserk for like 6 hours to finish it. It was what I needed but what now?
It was shounenish at times but I give some slack for the author and it wasn't that bothersome.
Claymore is like most popular rec but I've done that too. Kokou no hito would fill that void in my heart right now but I've read it too and same author's "Innocent" is in works.
I can't read anything ongoing. Only finished. (Berserk was weird exception and I'm sure it will never be finished and the current last chap is probably the very last too.)
AND THE LOLI WITCH WAS SOOOOOOO ADORABLE.
hah thats what I love about the souls series, it gets them to read berserk.

Toad, I enjoy how you take over-the-top Anime analysis to the next level lol. Episode 4 of Oregairu was such a curve ball for me; I lament having to wait a week to see what results from the recent events. Oregairu is worth analyzing. unlike a certain k-on fake And unlike the inaction of a certain chesty goddess. the thing is the weapon doesn't work until the goddess does the magic seal and binds the weapon to bell. That takes time which they did not have until they successfully delayed the monster for a bit i got this from novel.
They showed this in the anime. People were overreacting a lot.

I mean, it had so many awesome parts!!!!!!!! + Show Spoiler +I loved how Hayama stood up for Hikki there, it was kind of the sort of thing Hikki would have done in that situation i think. put those bitches in their place.
And the yui scene. kyaaaa. I felt this way in the first season, and it's grown way stronger this season Yui is one amazing girl. I waited for the CR rip on HS so i donno what commie's subs for that scene were but the CR subs were "i really like this club, i like it" but it was totally obvious she wasn't talking about the club, or at least was talking about more than the club.
And i loved that they talk about how Hikki always reads between the lines of every word and action, but is oblivious to this. I think it's b/c in the past he was so wrong so many times about a situation like this with a girl saying something that can be construed as her saying she likes him that it just goes over his head here now when a girl is actually saying that she likes him. it's like he can't even think about the possibility b/c it's something that's completely impossible in his mind..since it was drilled into it so hard so many times.
Also i agree that Hayamas "Y" is probably the older sister, but they might try to throw a curveball at us and say it's the younger sister...or even Yui for the triangle drama but I highly doubt that.
alll in all oregairu is like the one show that's blowing me away right now. I caught up on mikagura and ore monogatari, Mikagura is probably my 2nd favorite show airing right now...i really like eruna she's great. I love how she's always day dreaming and romanticizes everything way out of proportion. Ore monogatari is somewhat interesting. I like the friendship between the two guys a lot, and the girl is pretty kawaii. i hope it's gonna move towards being about the two guys friendship more than just the relationship and the troubles that girls gonna get b/c she likes him.
I'd recommend watching it with CommieSubs tbh. Yes you can easily see that they're having fun at times with making things sound more raunchy than it actually does. Case in point, from the same episode: Iroha scene,+ Show Spoiler [I guess this still belongs in a spoiler] + the reading inbetween lines phrase from Hachiman being "You've got some balls to be goofing off with chicks while you've got work to do" 
But when it matters they're usually much more on point and as much as I like CR for actually giving a legal way to stream anime they do have some really stupid mistranslations from time to time. I'll never forgive them for that Hachikuji translation in Monogatari 2nd series translating it as "flub/stutter" or whatever they said when she didn't even say a word...

lol well i donno, generally i've been happy with commie stuff i've gotten before but sometimes they kinda fuck their translations up too. Typically i get the rips off of HS b/c they're the fastest out, but for whatever reason oregairu airs late on CR so there's time for others to sub it before. But since i generally get everything from HS i hardly bother to go searching for stuff and just follow their schedule. It's just easier for me to follow HS schedule i guess. I obviously don't care about CR and their legal stream since i just get the stolen versions anyways. lol

Ravel, Shirone(You know what i mean by this, i hope) and Rossweisse for top girls introduced in the anime.
Le fay and Bennia for top girls that haven't been introduced. + Show Spoiler +Even if only because they're the biggest fans of the best super hero around
Grayfia is definitely top tier as well, but Satan Yellow really gives her a run for being best non-harem girl.
Also seems this weeks episode will be full of oppai. Hopefully more Rossweisse.

yeah I do the same, just HS all the way because it's convenient but the translations just aren't very thoughtful. They're fine, they're just not good. If you don't care all that much about the show or you hear the original and realize how it's different to what's written out that's fine.
But if you really care for it, getting it elsewhere is usually better. People who only pick a couple shows to translate (granted Commie isn't really a prime example for that ) per season probably just care more about those couple shows and put more time into it than the translators on CR who have to get it out asap, and a lot more of it so they end up with copy & paste translations. And yeah, the Commie translation is a crapton better in this case even if it's not perfect but I don't think there's a way to make it perfect for this case without huge ass TL-note's which would be bad all in itself. In the end you probably understood the real meaning because of her wavering voice, the pauses inbetween and the visuals that just don't fit what CR translated it as.

I actually like that angel girl, was it Irina or something? And Xenovia is also pretty nice.

Never. That was literally the most stupid translation I've ever seen.

Irina, Issei's childhood friend.
Seems that she'll have a larger role in the anime than she did in the LN, or rather she'll become a recurring character earlier in the story.
|
Well I don't even mind if they get her in there a little bit more. The LNs neglected her pretty hard for the most part, which is to be expected because his harem is pretty gd big so some people have to take hits. 18 should be "her" volume though (at least she is on the cover).
|
Does Asia die? As long as she gets completely removed I wouldn't mind. Also Koneko is grown up. What is wrong with you! Just coz she's petite you got to be hating on her.

You haven't seen non-loli Koneko form have you? She even makes a deal with Issei about her "size" + Show Spoiler +That he will marry and give her children when she is grown up enough to have her body handle pregnancy

Neither her or Xenovia have really had a volume properly dedicated to them yet. But yeah seems volume 18 is hers and 19 is Xenovia's.
LN spoilers
+ Show Spoiler +Seems Michael is researching ways for Irina to be with Issei without falling and seems that Xenovia wants to become the new student council president with the third years graduating.
Atleast Rossweisse's volume was great, she wasn't really a proper part of the harem before that but now she definitely is.
Also according to the author's blog characters will be introduced in different orders but the events of the different volumes will still happen in the right order, 5->6->7.
He also said that Ajuka teleporting Loki away was the only proper way to resolve that because he thought a super devil should be the guy solving the problem.
Now i'm not so scared that they would cut the Gremory vs Sitri rating game, i was afraid they'd do that to get the time for everything.
Seems the date with akeno will be moved up to happen earlier though.

Semi-spoilers in regards to koneko, not a real spoiler but i'll still spoiler it.
+ Show Spoiler +Koneko is only petite because of her repressing her Nekomata instinct/abilities, this is her when she releases her abilities fully: + Show Spoiler +And about asia + Show Spoiler +If you want to see Asia die then this season might be just the thing for you

kind of... I think you're already past that point though?
Nisekoi-3 was pretty good. I was dissapointed to hear it's another episode without best girl + her little sis and really frowned upon realizing it's a Chitoge episode but that's at least better than a tsugumi episode, right?
So I go in this and it's actually a decent episode. Way better than ep1 and ep2.
