If you cut out almost everything in Monogatari that is not Hitagi, you can watch the show without being called a pervert. Even if she does spend quite a bit of time in her underwear.
The show started on an absolute high with the stapler-wielding goddess falling from the ceiling. I think it struggled to find a more compelling story after that.... though each of the "cases" in the series is interesting in its own right.

Oh, crap, what am I doing here... I'm in the anime thread! Again! No, never again!

Oh, finally got the missus to watch "Perfect Blue"... shame it was an English dub. The voice acting takes something away from the movie... but it's still psychologically unnerving. It's been a veeeery long time since I last watched it, so I'd forgotten some of the... uh... squickier... parts.

The bit with the ghettoblaster in the lift is the best bit.

Bonkers as hell. I like how the tiny clues in her apartment, as well as the mystery of the dead tetra fish, finally came together in the end.
Real "Fight Club" moment, right there. (And that's not a spoiler, because it's a different thing). Even if I already knew the ending going into the movie.

Actually, I'll change what I said. The last line (in the Japanese dub at least) is the best bit.

Is it "I'm the real thing?"
Seems like the gist of it came through in the English version, but the effect was partially lost in the dubbing.

In the Japanese dub Mima's closing line ("I'm the real thing" or something along those lines) are delivered by Rumi's voice actor, as are at least some of Mima's singing parts earlier in the film. This effect is lost in the English dub because nobody told the people doing the dub to do that or something.

Eren's Bizarre Adventure.
This is horrifying.

No. Drawing girls as '80s testosterone-heavy male characters is one of the most greatest things to come from anime.

Looks like I finished the second season of Tokyo Ghoul. What drama. What struggle. What bittersweetness.
I just wonder what happened to the Kanekenz.
You grow such an attachment to the ghouls, but when their defeat is that inevitable, you can't help but feel unstable about the battles.

Ok, so where is the difference between Happy Cano and Normal Cano? I hardly see where the changes exist.
I wasn't normal Cano, I was sad Cano because GTP was blocked at work. Now I'm back at being normal Cano.

But Disappearance doesn't. I finally, finally watched it after telling myself I would for the best part of 4 years.
And it was brilliant frankly. It had something I
(and Yuki)
It also looked so goddamn beautiful. Not just for like one shot where Shaft burns money on animating a few ice cubes to perfection, but just overall brilliance in the quality.
Go and watch it. Don't wait for 4 years either.

I'd tell people Disappearance is a brilliant film that's well worth watching if one didn't have to watch the rest of Haruhi first to understand it. Most of Haruhi is rubbish to mediocre in quality.
So, a typical anime, but slightly better, because there are actually some good bits.

Literally nothing except everything else before it. But today I've decided to watch some actual anime while I can. Not sure if I'm done for today yet either.What kept you waiting for so long?!

Happy Cano = Cano after the first 5 seconds of Tank! played.
Happy Cano = Cano the instant FLCL finished for the first time.
Happy Cano = Cano sleeping.

All good reasons to be happy.
Group B Lancia's are also a good reason to be happy.

I'll take notes of that, in case I'll ever need it
Quite, true hapiness can be attained by one who sees a Group B Lancia with a Martini livery. A wise piece of thought.

Or anime Lancias?
