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

I'll be totally honest with all of you. The sole reason I decided to watch it was because of the Gothic loli detective. I really don't expect much from this anime, but I'm hoping to be pleasantly surprised by it. Hoping the mysteries will be dark and exciting =)

I think the first GOSICK episode was pretty good. The two protagonists seem nice too, cant say much about the story yet but hey goth Loli detective is allready a big plus

My Kyshatriya model came. Already broke a piece.

Edit: Is anyone besides Horrible gonna sub GOSICK? The prospect of a goth loli has piqued my interest.

Um what happened to Shakugan no shana 3 btw? Heard news about it a long time ago and yet here we are, 2011, without it

So...I have been reading LGBT manga lately starting with Junjou Romantica and then moving onto Girl Friends. They were a nice read but the biggest problem is probably obvious which seems to be that the audience is probably looking for a few people of the same sex getting it on.

I am considering reading Maria-sama Ga Miteru (novel) but I do not want to waste my time reading another undertone erotica manga. Any word for it?

I dunno Junjou Romantica nor what you mean by LGBT but GF was 1) written by a fairly naughty lady and 2) yuri tends to have a lot of sensuality, as it's a major aspect to girl-to-girl relationships. MariMite's on a whole different level altogether as aside from a handful of people (mainly Sei-sama) it's extremely shoujo-esque in how utterly white everyone seems to be.

Well, I'm up to ep.9 of TTGL and I have to say - what the fuck is this shit?
The main heroes are some of the most annoying characters I have ever seen in any anime ever. The first is a kid who's scared of his own shadow and is (currently) heart broken because the chick he liked kissed someone else.
The second is a kamikaze retard that every time he opens his mouth, gives me the urge to close the whole damn tab out of disappointment.
The chick seems alright I guess, compared to the crowd she's mixed in.
The gender-confused mechanic gives me the creeps. His jokes are borderline sexual innuendo.
The altar boy is so fucking cautious and untrusting I keep praying someone will cave his skull in with a punch.

The humor is corny. As corny as it gets. I feel like this anime more than any is catering to 7-8 year olds. Can't understand how anyone older than 10 would be amused by this kind of behavior or humor. Guess the mech fights are this shows saving grace >_>

So, I guess you are have the inability to watch an anime and go "lol that was a 'WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK I AM' kick, that was fairly badass, this guy is kinda humorous in an awesome way."? Did you expect Gurren Lagann to be Evangelion or something, with a dark serious plot? Plus, I completely disagree with your assessment of Simon, seeing as how it was pretty much all him that took down that giant land-ship, and Simon was the one who came to help Kamina on his own against those Ganmen(when he found out about the cause of the subterranean earthquakes).

"I feel like this anime more than any is catering to 7-8 year olds."

Really? Seriously? Because I can totally see a similarity between a show like this, and childrens shows like Rugrats and Spongebob, or whatever it is that kids watch these days. You know, with since they have lots of battles and explosions aka violence, a girl with a large breasts who is barely dressed, + Show Spoiler +
the death of a main character
, blood, "sexual innuendo", etc. Oh yeah, don't forget the show were those people were pretty much going to sacrifice two innocent children, you see that all the time in shows for kids.

Also, the "combine" mechanic is Getter Robo or Gunbuster all over again. If you are going to complain about a rehash, at least get it right what they are rehashing.



Yeah so sorry for actually comparing this mechanic to a show I watched in childhood >_>, I should have known better to use a show that is universally known and still shown on TV today rather than an old anime.[/sarcrasm]

All I see in this show are explosions and corny lines. I don't see a plot here. People live underground. Animals took over the surface with giant motherfucking robots of death. They only attack at dawn. Where does it all lead to? 'WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK I AM' kick, at least in the first 9 episodes.
Don't make me out to be a prick with saying

There's a line between being funny while doing all that. After the 10th time in every consecutive episode it has LOST IT'S CHARM.

It really sounds like this just isn't your thing, given that what you're complaining about is what most people like about the show.

That said, insulting the fanbase is a little silly. It's a dumb, fun, over the top show. Maybe people want to just unleash their inner 7 year old, I dunno. I looked at your MAL profile and if you can overlook the monumental stupidity of Code Geass S2 enough to give it a nine, you can probably overlook the deliberate stupidity of TTGL. (That said, there are a lot of really really dumb TTGL fanboys who are quite annoying, but it's still a good show).

Edit - speechless why?

I'm speechless because he can give Geass R2 a 9, and then complain about Gurren Lagann being stupid.

In Japan stuff like TTGL are called 熱血 shows, wherein the literal translation is "hot blooded." Sort of a lost art - it's why S-cry-ed has a massive cult following, because it's one of the last of its kind. TTGL was both an amusing parody of regular robot shows while also bearing the flag of hot-bloodedness. But not everyone appreciates that sort of MANLYMAN ROOOOOOOOOOOAR show. That's fine. Just understand that it just wasn't for you, and move on.

LoGH talk

+ Show Spoiler +

I'm finally starting to remember the names for Reinhard's staff. Damn there are way too many names in this show. Now to remember the names for Yang's staff :p

I really like that assassin. Bugdashu or something. He just meet Yang, tell him he's bored and that he wants an appointment. How funny. I hope we see more of him in the future. Also, while loyalty is important, I'd rather have a competent calculating man willing to surrender as soon as he see defeat instead of an incompetent admiral who loses its whole fleet before killing himself.

I wasn't that sad Jessica died. We didn't see enough of her for me to actually care about her. But I'm definitely sad for the 15 000 civilians deaths on Heinessen. That's just horrible.

Looking forward to see more of Fahreinheit. I hope he joins Reinhard's staff.

I remember reading somewhere that they were rebroadcasting SNS1 and 2 before moving onto 3. That and what someone earlier said would be true too. SNS3 wouldn't be start until at least Index2 is done airing.

One thing that separates Yang and Reinhard, IMO, is emotional control. I think that even after that massacre, Yang won't act rashly. He'll sit back and think and analyze, and see what his staff has to say. Whereas we saw Reinhard rage after Ovlesser insulted him.
