But they weren't a full, "holy shit get me to the next part" like the Malazan series once that series picked up.
I mentioned Malazan!!! And yes I agree, I pretty much recommend Erikson/Malazan to everyone!! Sooooooooo many great characters that are super fleshed out. Just so much good about them in general. =]

At least there were subtle in the rip I watched, without it I wouldn't understand a word she was saying.
Just keep going man

Symphogear is one of my favourite guilty pleasures

There is nothing to feel guilty about.
Anyone else seen the GX enemy designs? Seems like enemies are real mahou shoujos this time. And dolljoints.
edit: I'll toss in some gunpla talk too because I can: origin char's zaku is 10/10 kit, do get

Hmmmm, you really want me to spoiler it? Well, okay, I'll answer how it ends, in really broad strokes, and really vaguely.
+ Show Spoiler +Season 1 has a happy end that prioritizes coolness over making sense, and is an end that allows for Symphogear G, which is in ways better than the first season IMO. Season 1 ends very differently than how you would expect it to end based on the first episode.

I actually have not. Pics?
And do you mean 1/100...? As far as Zakus go, I can't imagine the Origin Zaku being all that special, considering there have probably been more Zakus produced than any other type of mobile suit gunpla.

Perhaps he's just dead inside. I have 5 anime rated a 9/10. Texhnolyze Mushishi Hourou Musuko Tatami Galaxy Kuuchuu Buranko I also like FMAB and I enjoy feels stuff every once in a while. 5 Centimeters per second is probably one of my favorite anime movies. I will confess to drinking alcohol while watching some anime though. I recently watched Texhnolyze and Ergo Proxy. I see you like Texhnolyze but I'm curious if you enjoyed Ergo Proxy. Also, any particular reason you rate Texhnolyze so highly? i think znf wrote something about technolize here on his blog
Ah he wrote about Ergo Proxy too. Thanks.

G was a mess in a way, with cliffhangers every week. But I enjoyed it a lot anyway.
The origin zaku has a completely new mold, there's quite a few sweet things about it, for example movable monoeye and basically a proper inner frame. Not to mention dat rifle.

Alright, finished up Steins;Gate. The last few episodes have been really great. I wish the whole any would have been like that. In the end, they couldn't make up for the whole show and I coudln't bring myself to give it a 7/10 but a 6/10 is still fine and the last episodes at least made me want to check out more Steins;Gate stuff. I'm also kind of looking forward to Steins;Gate 0 now.
I felt the same...the beginning was so slow and super confusing.
I think ep11 or 12 was when the intensity got kicked up 500%.
The Steins Gate OVA was pretty good.

Just watched episode 2-3 from Kara no Kyoukai!
Still very good! The universe starting to make more sense! Also very fond of the soundtrack! Need to listen to it and see there's something I can put on my Ipod!
Wondering if any other show has some similar witch/magic battles/animation

Ergo Proxy is great.
Texhnolyze is the best anime ever made. It aspires to something that few anime can even hope to claim, and achieves it in stellar fashion. Episodes like...19-20 on their own are superior to entire seasons of anime and feature some of the most atmospheric and haunting images in the medium.
It is subtle in its imagery and symbolism, but still maintains the semblance of an extremely understandable storyline, in the sense that you know what Texhnolyze is talking about, understanding the imagery and symbolism merely enriches the experience immensely rather than exists as an inhibitor to your enjoyment. In that sense, Texhnolyze is "accessible" to a wide audience but is also incredibly sophisticated to grapple with, and few anime can boast the same level of detail on the human condition and existence that Texhnolyze achieves.
Even past all the high art and thought provoking ideas that Texhnolyze sets out to achieve, it still has, like I explained above, various elements that people enjoy in a story. It has characters that have conflicting aspirations, goals, motives, and play various interesting roles throughout the story. The plot is well structured and follows through various arcs with great pacing, and various other elements like music are also pretty good as well.

too bad znf hates Texhnolyze so much, he refuses to stream it.

rip
texhnolyze too unimportant right now ;_;

Texhnolyze is a mecha show, agree/disagree? There is only one right answer.
