New Game!
+ Show Spoiler +Had to pause at the end when the ED started to make sure there's still one more episode to this but overall pretty good episode. There was still plenty of Nennechi but was a lot less annoying this time around. That cosplay. All the Ko x Rin yuri. Looking forward to last episode but I honestly would have expected it to end on a note like this. I guess last episode is just going to be slice of life pandering? Also I like how we always talk about there not being any men in New Game! universe and the entire crowd of people watching hifumin was girls. I'm fairly sure I spotted some in the background when they went shopping for the pen though

Last ep is the formal wedding for Ko and Rin.

+ Show Spoiler +New game is primarily a slice of life show so I'm not sure I'd call it pandering Slice of life shows in general are about repetition and the cyclical nature of everyday life (hence the emphasis on seasons and yearly events in most SoL shows), so it makes sense for them to leave an episode at the end to show the beginning of the next cycle (also it prolly doesnt hurt their chances at a second season).

Huh? There are a lot of SoL shows that aren't this way. Then there is lots of stuff like K-ON where you know what kinds of episodes are going to happen, you just don't know in which order. Sometimes the same theme even comes twice, lel.
//Omfg Taboo Tattoo is so bad. And every episode keeps surprising me with new bullshit. I don't know whether I should laugh or cry anymore. First 6 minutes of ep11 and they already had a question about Freud's philosophy - mid-fight without context - and a star wars reference by a dude wielding a light-...wait for it...-brush.

the term "slice of life pandering" was meant to be emphasized on the pandering, not on the slice of life. I'm perfectly aware that it's a slice of life show with basicly cute girls doing cute things like K-ON or whatever else, I'm just saying that I somehow expect them the ramp up the pandering with the last episode due to the ending of this episode. Obviously not as extreme as marriage between Ko and Rin but who knows what they have in store for last episode.
+ Show Spoiler +I do hope it's not the "beginning of a new cycle" though. Maybe if it's reeeeally short at the end but usually not a fan of that for something that I don't expect to ever get a season2

Surprised some of you guys seem to put so much faith in reviews. I think I've only ever read 2-3 reviews at best and that's skimming them because I was curious to see why such a highly rated show on MAL (ratings mostly mean it's liked but w/e) was scored poorly by some reviewer.

I never said I dropped it in the first place lol I'll give FMP a retry some day as well.

wow lol. cmon, it just got boring around the midway mark. I watched most of the first half in a couple of days then I found myself a bit bored and was also playing more BW at the time for DRTL (TvP practice, go figure ;; ) and well, never got back into it. Some of the fights were pretty cool, world was somewhat interesting and there were some emotional moments but ya, it's on hold atm.

will eventually. This was from two years ago, haven't went back yet.

haha well, I got a bit bored with it and there were a slew of other anime that I really wanted to watch so it got put on hold XD

List of Things BigFan hates:
1.) Full Metal Panic
2.) Bakeomonogatari (and the Monogatari series at large)
3.) Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood

+ Show Spoiler [Space Battleship Deus Ex: Episode 15] +So this is basically a worse done LoGH where Yang gets stopped from killing Reinhard? That's kind of lame. LoGH set it up through some cool moves from Reinhards comrades and built up the political bullshit from the start.

+ Show Spoiler +Yip, it's just as frustrating as in LoGH but the politics weren't as well estalished. To be fair, Deus Ex Yamato didn't have as much time as LoGH to do so. It's also one of the plot twists where I didn't get the solution later on.
//On another note:
+ Show Spoiler [Taboo Tatoo ep11] +Dunno if anybody cares but that dude in the end pulled a nuclear bomb with the size of a grenade, with a simple trigger out of his pocket. A fucking nuclear bomb. lol
+ Show Spoiler [Zestiria ep10] +I think Alisha is a valid contender for top3 female this year. Her scene in the end was awesome.
Re ero ep24 was rushed as hell. And Suwa keeps saving Orange. Mob Psycho was actually really good this week.

Oh wow, TLPro is sponsored by Crunchyroll now!
I wish I can support Team Liquid, but I already had a crunchyroll account. :-\

The Shepherd is too OP in Zestiria universe, but yeah, Alisha ftw!
Sadly, she didn't get to fight the assassins for very long 
We need more spear fights in anime!

I mean what you 'missed' really depends on what you like, you know
I mean my favourites from 1 year back until now would be
One punch man
Haikyuu season 2
Mob psycho 100
JoJo part 4
and a few others that i can't remember off the top of my head right now, but you might not like any of them

I just like things that are really good.

that's just as vague as people have videly different definitions of what 'really good' means
genres? other series you like? anything?
|
It's debatable what's "really good". Me and a lot of people here like ReZero (which is still airing for one more episode) a lot for example, while a couple others don't think it's good. I can second One Punch Man and Haikyuu at the very least. Mob Psycho is not as good as OPM imo, but still good.

Well yeah, but + Show Spoiler +she was like "I'm ready to give my life." And then she topped that with "When I'm going to die, tell everybody that I forbid revenge. That's my last wish." Glorious.

Then you missed nothing, this year has been really shitty so far.

Idk, from fall 15 to fall 16 there has been a lot of enjoyable anime imho
|
Fall 15 was decent. At least it offered some good comedy with OPM and Osomatsu-san.
This year, I haven't watched a single show where I felt like "wow, this is really good". Thinking about it, maybe Rakugo. That show was really well done, I just didn't enjoy it as much. Then I have watched a handful of enjoyable/good show, namely: Durarara!!x2 Ketsu (Durarara is always solid), Boku Dake, Sakamoto, Joker Game and Shirayuki (kind of). Tons of ok'ish shows but nothing I would recommend right away.
