Lol, that picture best describes her that episode, she was like fucking justin wong doing commentary for a marvel match, lmao.

Finished Katanagatari and I think I’ve just found another show to be adding into my all time list of favourites. I really liked the afterthought messages left in the epilogue regarding failure as something that can indeed be celebrated despite the negative connotations typically associated with it. Pretty much every major and sub-major character in this show fails in one way or another and it’s precisely because of that which gives rise to each characters own individual personality and charm. I had a gut feeling that a ā€˜happily ever after’ ending probably wasn’t going to happen and as much as I liked the characters in this show, I think the way it actually played out in the end was for the best in terms of storytelling and leaving a lasting impact. It’s not very often that a new favourite comes by that I can add to the list, but I’d definitely have no problems in doing exactly that with Katangatari. Good shit Katanagatari, Cheerio!

The animators did a good job drawing the swords. It actually looks like carbon steel.

Goddamn, I don’t remember Oreimo being this…I dunno…pandering, last season. It’s getting kind of ridiculous and it’s only 5 episodes in. They just need to bang already and get it over with, christ. This is why I hate high school level romance in anime, it’s all the same garbage, between a boy and girl or a freaking brother and sister, GROW UP ALREADY.

The end was good though, they need to just stick with the group doing otaku crap instea dof focusing on the obvious busted relationship of the brother and sister.

I can’t believe you ever thought the show would be more then Minerva. It’s got ā€œEroā€ written all over it.

Fucking Shingeki no Kyojin. If I dont die of a heart attack by the end of the anime it’ll be a miracle.

I dunno, i can see why he watched it.

Outside of genshiken, there are no shows that really have otakus being the main focus. The brother sister thing was uneeded and will never impact the story in any significant way, so they should have just dropped it, but i guess japan must love to fuck their siblings.

Eureka 7 AO’s ending.

All of my wat

Currently watching Katanagatari ep 5… That’s one strong lady, cold blooded too. She doesn’t kid around.

Holy crap Shingeki no Kyojin ep 5

[spoiler=]I knew this would be a anyone can die series but I didn’t expect for a main character to be killed off so soon. Eren just can’t catch a break. This dude is in seriously need of a Deus Ex Machina[/spoiler]

Yeah, I mean I know what the show is called, so I knew what it could end up being, but the concept and first season were genuinely interesting and I don’t remember them focusing so much on the brother/sister aspect and more on the group as a whole, those 2, the cat girl, glasses chick, ect. But they’ve barely shown up at all and it’s been focusing more on the brother/sister ā€œwincestā€ angle and it’s just really boring and cliche. It is just 5 episodes in so I’m sure there will be some decent eps, but it’s a pretty weak start to the season.

I know, shocked me too,
Felt like I was watching game of thrones

This show really takes it to the edge.

Spoiler

They already took off the Eren’s arm and leg… AND came close to dying once but magically regained physical strength through will power. It’s too early to die. The plot armour is so obvious at this point, but it’s delivered through a driven spirit of an individual. Eren’s not dead. His will power alone will make him an invincible character.

Havn’t seen the episode yet, nor Game of Thrones, but I’m just gonna go on a whim and say that people were either fucking or dieing this episode lol.

Hopefully both.

[spoiler=]Without plot armor or Deus ex machina the only way I can see Eren surviving is to cut his way out. The titan that swallowed him didn’t chew. He still has a chance.[/details]

[details=Spoiler]He’s going to cut his way out either way.

All I get when I see Eren’s furious eyes is Kratos going after the Titans (God of War). If that were the case, it’s pretty damn clear, he’s going to cut the eotema open with a lot of gore for your eyes to see.

I just hope it won’t be too overdone like Kirito. Who knows, maybe they will. It did create a lot of fans for SAO and this show’s got a plethora of fans too.[/details]

Shingeki ep 5

Spoiler

Sooooo I assume Eren had some titan blood or some shit in him and he’s going to regenerate his limbs. This show is fuckin awesome.

Spoiler

which takes us to that glossed over injection ā€œdreamā€ sequence…

sparrows hotel is pretty funny. It has that old school 90’s animation going for it. I love these 3 minute comedies. Though I’d love for this one to be 15 min, since it’s pretty entertaining.
