Man, I was like “FINALLY A CHARACTER WILL DIE!”

And then I was like =/

Blood-C finale was violent, as expected. Overall, the series was an okay action series, but the pacing was pretty bad. The fact that they waited eleven episodes for the big plot reveal was a bad move on their part. Even with the big reveal, it made the first half of the series still relatively bad compared to the latter half. I honestly think the show would’ve been a lot better if they had aired the show on AT-X or some other premium cable show so that the violence would be uncensored. If you’re going to have a show be guro and show all kinds of disturbing deaths, what’s the point of having all of it be censored? I’m not sure if something happened on the producing side of things where they couldn’t get an uncensored version of the show to air on AT-X, or maybe Japan got super soft since the days of Elfen Lied. I’m not even sure which show would be more violent: Elfen Lied or Blood-C. Guess we’ll have to wait for the Blu-Ray releases to find out… and even then that’s a few months from now. Not sure the dates of the BD releases.

Not sure if them film is going to be an OVA or theatrical film release. I’m hoping for the former so I don’t have to wait several more months after the film is released to see WTF happens. I’m sure the movie will likely just be 90% uncensored gore and action. I hope.

Blood-C finale

Shoutouts to Metal Gear Saya/Solid Saya.

I guess overall I would say Blood-C is a good action series extremely marred by the terrible pacing. The action and animation quality definitely stands out as high quality; the direction, writing, and pacing do not. Overall I guess I’d give it a 6 out of 10. It’s not the worst show I’ve seen but probably one of the more disappointing ones. Uncensored version would probably be a 7 out of 10. lol.

Horizon already censoring shit. Apparently you’re not allowed to watch breasts be groped on late night Japanese TV? Fucking Japan.

Censorship is for fags.

I think they just want the BDs to sell more.

What the fuck is with this 10bit shit?

Why do they censor shit with a biog bright blinding white light? God that would painful to just have outta no where while watching TV.

Well, Fate/Zero certainly had a great opening episode.

10 bit is better quality for smaller size, if used right. It’s just better. Just update your cccp.

Just going by the screenshots on random, it doesn’t look censored.

Your hotlink doesn’t work.

F/Z: That was great. Gasa, how is it so far as an adaptation?

Ughhhhh Penguindrum 12.

Uggggghhhhhh Fate/Zero 01.

I never read F/Z. I haven’t seen ep 1 yet either, probably will on Monday.

Epic fail on hotlink. L2imageshack.

Dammit. Worked when I tested it out right after I posted. http://img94.imageshack.us/img94/4971/bloodc12large38.jpg

That part wasn’t censored. Did you not notice the excessive amounts of blurring and white/black lights?

Edit: Oh. Rereading your post, it doesn’t seem like you watched the series at all. Pretty much any violence of people getting violently eaten, slaughtered, smashed, stabbed, etc. was censored.

Fuck the censoring of Blood-C it seriously detracts from the experience when you can’t make out half the shit that goes on.

guilty crown = index
phi brain = yugioh
maken-ki = typical action/ecchi that probably won’t amount to anything
c3 = looks hidan no aria inspired, pass
ben-to = hrrm, bento wars. I might try this one. Art looks great too.
mashiro-iro = could end up ecchi, better things to watch imo
boku wa tomodachi = has potential. I’m sure somebody in here will watch it
working!! = love it or hate it
kimi to boku = looks like show for women

Except without Index which already makes it a million times better.

Kimi ni Todoke, Hidamari, Unicorn, Loli in paris, and Usagi drop. Plenty of good OVA’s coming out. To bad the actual shows this season don’t look that interesting besides friends club and working!! S2.
