+ Show Spoiler [UFO] +Well, that was pretty beautiful looking. Not sure if I like the tease of yuri or yuri more, but I still really enjoyed UFO. Had some good scenes, and I found someone to add to best girls (obviously on the left) ![[image loading]](http://41.media.tumblr.com/d0566d9b07a12c142fd913524691ce8a/tumblr_nqerv1mX7l1r92e4to1_250.png) ) + Show Spoiler [Kuroko] +Read the manga, but the ending to the anime was pretty damn good. I only watched the last few episodes, but the Rakuzan game was done really well. + Show Spoiler [JWWW] +Welp, that was great. Really, really, really good. Comedy was spot on, and best friend-kun is great. Kinda funny, it reminded me how much better Shuu from Nisekoi could be if he had a better mc to work with.

Natsuki is so smug all the time I love it.

I will whore myself out to anyone and everyone to get the money to buy KyoAni and force them to make a Euphonium second season if they don't make one within a year or two
|
UFO! + Show Spoiler +I really wish we got to see the full concert piece uninterrupted at least once. I know that music is not as much the focus in UFO as it was in Shigatsu but they worked so hard to invest us in their journey just to push focus away from the result.

Anime is ok now, feels a bit boring at times even though the concept could be better implemented.

I still think they are a Yuri couple since they already both confessed to each other; they just haven't done anything with it. Probably will be a 2nd season at some point, guess you gotta wait to see how the Yuri pans out. I felt like the series isn't great, but not bad. The Yuri tension was by far the best thing about the series though. + Show Spoiler +It just stays yuri bait.
Which is the way I prefer it, honestly. + Show Spoiler +Not watching this anime, but, we're going to need life support for Numy! Pronto! lol + Show Spoiler +I thought he is watching Yuuki Yuuna, that should be enough to keep him alive. Fair enough, we'll see about that

I was very negative on Fafner the first time I watched it, but my second watch had me liking it a tiny bit more. It was never really anything to really celebrate, but at the same time its not really offensively bad either. I remember my second watch was pretty much saved by the Team of 3 in the middle, and Kanon, who they did a very good job at developing. The main two are always real zzzzzz but I guess I learned to stomach them.
At the very least, the show quits trying to be Evangelion pretty early, thankfully.

Arslan, did animation quality just went to shit?

lol ragz, so it wasn't just me.

Arslan's animation quality has been shit for a while now. Too many parts outsourced to Korea.

the immediate drop in quality from that beautiful episode 1 was pretty unexpected

At the very least, the show quits trying to be Evangelion pretty early, thankfully. yes, it's not offensively bad at all, just feels that the pace is annoying and I don't care much for the characters. For me, watching an anime is rewarding when I feel some kind of a connection or at least its comedic enough that I don't need to feel it lol but I just don't feel much of it in fafner. + Show Spoiler +Shoko died? umm ok, that's sad I guess? Maybe you should've developed her character further from a simple "I'm sick and want to protect Kazuki's island even if I die?". All we saw her do was stay in bed then feel sad for herself due to her illness (quite reasonable but doesn't help us in feeling sad for her loss since we barely had time to meet her imo. Man, I feel so heart less now lol).
I could go on and on about the other characters like Soshi. He decides that fafner is more important than friends (ok, guess he places the island over everyone) but doesn't seem to interact well with people at all. Feels like he's way too withdrawn though that could be his personality and his new attitude because of everything that he's seen outside. At least, talk more to the pilots. He just monitors and gives orders. He could've tried to calm down Shoko or any of the trio but instead, feels like he can't/won't? Anyways, maybe I'll write more and change my mind by the end.

Kuroko + Show Spoiler +Was I the only one hoping the True Zones gatekeeper was MJ, and when Kagami opened it, there was Kobe, AI, T-Mac/etc chilling there? Lol, still an amazing episode so far, and the game has been great.

All teams beaten with all generation of miracle players realizing that they need to play with the team rather than on their own. Then, we had Kuroko help get the last shot in with Kagami's help to finish things off Going to miss this anime. The way that Iduka stole the ball, the earth shot (as I recall) by Hyuga, the rebound by Kiyoshi then the team work by Kuroko and Kagami to finish things off, perfect to see everyone contribute.

I 'm curious, what's everyone's unpopular opinions in regards to anime? My big one's that I believe the original Evangelion series plus EoE to be remarkably mediocre to bad anime with awful characters and an even worse fanbase. A bunch of circlejerkers passed it off as something deep and philosophical when it most definitely isn't (look at Anno's interviews regarding the show for proof) and instead of actually obsessing over an anime that deserves it, waste their time with this nonsense.

Do you want to out hipsters?

If you want to do such a thing at least put in your actual reasoning for things otherwise it doesn't create healthy discussion. I think the topic of "unpopular opinion" is merely a way for people to act like fanboys or anti-fanboys without ever really having a good discussion over anything.

+ Show Spoiler +because despite how much they changed to downplay Shuichi x kumiko and reina x taki, they still didn't put in a final moment to confirm kumiko x reina
