Oh some of them have subtitles? Just rewatched the innitial intro-video and saw them translate ブサイク as "clumsy"... which can be what it means but I'm pretty sure it's just ugly/fugly in that case. How are the subtitles for the rest? I might just put on japanese subtitles as default for practice' sake. ///Nvm, seems like japanese was only available for the intro-vid and in at least none of the linked videos here. No.

No. ![[image loading]](http://puu.sh/uBWte/0cbebe4dd7.png) like I said, it can mean that but it's a fairly common slur, usually for girls that means something along the lines of ugly or fugly as well. And given the situation being her taking a selfie and then talking about how it looks stupid I'd certainly say it's not the clumsy thing they're going for. (Not that I've watched the actual video though, so could be context actually makes it "clumsy" for whatever reason)
... now thinking about it... I wonder if ブサイクand ブス/醜女 are related and that's where the slur meaning of ブサイク comes from but anyways, you get the same as I said from dictionaries:
Na-adjective, Noun 1. clumsy (work) 2. plain (e.g. looks); ugly; homely; unattractive Derogatory, Usually written using kana alone

Finally caught up on Little Witch Academia, Konosuba, and Kobayashi-san Chi no Maid Dragon, all of which are highly enjoyable. I'm a bit sad that LWA has been gradually going down in terms of rating on MAL, but I think it'll go back up if the series does some multiple-episode arcs

Lol Konosuba.

Tho I don't recall this happening in the LN. Seems like it was done differently.

I don't really remember, don't have the books here 
I'm just pretty salty all we had was Kazuma getting back and Wiz telling him she was already in the bath by herself and that's it. (read: No scene of him imagining things with Wiz )
Sure, that's a super minor 3-phrase section or something like that but if you're going out of your way to illustrate it with 2 fullpage illustrations I expect to see some of the good parts!

... if Deen is animating it, will those parts still be good? I have doubts.

Yea the animation is moving into "seriously guys?" territory. Its like every passing week it gets worse. Do they put 99% of their budget into Megumin's explosion spells or something?
|
Those explosions are effin' majestic, though.

Nice, season 2 of overlord incoming.

Oh, Hoozuki no Reitetsu is getting a second season as well? Nice, hope it's as good as the first one.

Time to see if Overlord is anything interesting. zz

Yeah, it was pretty meh in the beginning but the second half was quite decent. Could be a decent watch, will see. Of course I would like Madhouse to do another sequel instead of this but...

Why? There isn't much good about today's madhouse. What companies have more animators that leave to form their own studio than madhouse? The only time madhouse makes anything good these days is when they contract an outside director who brings along their own set of animators who have more loyalty toward him instead of to madhouse like Shingo natsume.

In the past 2½ year: OPM, Overlord, Ore monogatari, Death parade, Parasyte Dunno, seems pretty good to me
|
Doesn't Overlord get darker from here on out though? I heard that the MC and crew get pretty evil later in....might be a pass for me...though there is more potential to see more Narberal so tough call.

Err, I was talking about making a squel to one of the other shows they did. I realise it's not up to them to decide that. It was just my way of saying somehow should higher them again, for Chihayafuru s2 for example.
The point about the director is moot because Madhouse has the contacts to hire those needed if they get an interesting project. Also what Unleashing said. I think it would be cool though if they could make a unique original again, preferable something sci-fi. I fear those times are over though.
That statement of yours pops up another question for me though: What studio does reliably make good shows these day? I figured it was always depended on the staff they put to work, hired or not...
