Better than that other cosplay really.

Episode 6 of Bokurano: Was that a Cappuccino?

Spoiler

How could Chizuru let Kako die a virgin? :3 Also I like this alien (the one with the giant plate thing) because it kind of reminds me of Ramiel.

Excuse me ma'am, I need you to come with me. double meaning

Wouldn't the Soryus get jealous?

Schwing!

9 episodes into Noein. It's awesome. If you like time travel-y stuff, which apparently you all do since you all love Steins;Gate, then definitely check it out. 👍

Though I have to admit... one of the main characters in Noein is annoying as 🤬. Think Shinji, except 10 times worse... and with a lot less to actually justify it. Thankfully I think the show's at the cusp of a turning point for that...

You almost had me sold...

The other shows I need to watch still?
FMA:B, Doctor Who to name a few.

FMA:B is top priority. So good.

Loading up Guilty Crown and errr.. receiving Code Geass and Lagann-hen from my friend, yeah. Looks like I'm pretty set for anime

Those are the luckiest shades...

Hmm... $15 or $60... tough decision.

Even though it's a "Limited Edition", I don't see anything special about it other than the fact that it's Blu-ray and it's being produced in limited quantities to artificially increase it's "value".

Sorry, but I'll pass. I'm not gonna pay a ridiculous $45 premium just for the luxury of high definition. 👎

Though one thing to note, it's basically a Japanese import. Though here's a review on that set from a guy that I follow on YouTube.

(Oh no a link, AOS- has stopped reading this post.)

Now TC's usual randomness.
1. My sister STILL has to use the laptop. This is the 5th day, gawdammit.Let's run down what I was supposed to watch Sun-Wed. So far it's 18 episodes worth of stuff, 4 for currently airing shows, if I don't get to watch anything today, 24 episodes.<_<
Sunday:
Nurarihyon no Mago: Sennen Makyou (Nura: Rise of the Yokai Clan: Demon Capital) Episode 21/22 (Depends on what you count the recaps as.)
Monday:
Squid Girl 2 Episode 7
Steins;Gate Episodes 15-17
Birdy the Mighty: Decode Episodes 1-2
Rurouni Kenshin Episode 60
Tuesday:
Bleach Episode 349
Honey and Clover Episodes 21-22
Rurouni Kenshin Episodes 61-62
Wednesday:
Honey and Clover Episodes 23-24 (Finishing up the show.)
Nabari no Ou Episodes 5-6
Rurouni Kenshin Episode 63
Toriko Episode 33
2. I see NeoGameSpark (He's very well known on YouTube among anime fans.) uploaded a video on the infamous Sub vs. Dub debate. Pretty good video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PmWp7SsX_DY
3. Other Anime on the [adult swim] boards helped me out, and I've decided how I'll watch Haruhi. I'll watch it in the broadcast order, then for season 2, I'll go back and watch the show chronologically. Don't know when I'll get back to the show however. http://boards.adultswim.com/t5/Other-Anime/How-should-I-watch-Haruhi/m-p/62694730
4. Loli, prepare to save your money up next year. I have a feeling Steins;Gate will be solicited this month for a March 2012 release (The cover art won't be out until about 2 weeks after it's solicited.). Once it does get solicited, I'll let you know.

Let me know what you think of Code Geass. It's an excellent anime.👍

Guilty Crown ep. 8:

Spoiler

Was hoping this show wasn't going to have so much fanservice but Inori in a bathing suit was nice. Hare in a bathing suit was nice too. Tsugumi in a maid outfit was nice too. And them touching in the bath was nice too. So much nice in this episode. And don't forget about the nice picture with Tsugumi in a swimsuit after the credits. 👍

 

[TheCorvette]

Sigh, if my sister didn't have to use the laptop still, I could have already finished the episode.

How am I supposed to discuss anything if I can't watch anything?!!!

 

[Sephy]

Didn't you say it was your laptop? The answer seems pretty simple to me.

 

[TheCorvette]

It's not her's either. She's going to be done with her 4th year this month, though she'll be going for another year for her Master's Degree as she wants to teach Language Arts.

She said she's going to sometime soon buy her own laptop, but that won't happen until around Christmas.<_<

 

[DK]

Didn't you says it was your laptop? The answer seems pretty simple to me.

[breaking 4th wall]I have a laptop of my own, but my brother sometimes takes it and kicks up a fuss whenever I try to take it back. He usually comes up with excuses like "Just another 10 minutes!" I'm pretty sure Shinji uses that excuse too...[/breaking 4th wall]

Heads up on those wanting the Clannad subbed only DVD's, quantities at Rightstuf are getting low on these out of print sets. They'll be gone probably at the end of the month, and this deal of $6 a set, it'll never ever happen again.

The BD (And the eventual one for After Story.) probably will never be seen for below $40 (Sentai knows how well it'll sell, so that higher price will work wonders. It was a top-seller for them with every release.), so this is a better deal.
Clannad Collection 1 Quantity Remaining: 81
Clannad Collection 2 Quantity Remaining: 29
Clannad After Story Collection 1 Quantity Remaining: 93
Clannad After Story Collection 2 Quantity Remaining: 0-There's a possibility they may receive more, but I highly doubt it. These DVD's have been out of print since 2010 as they re-released both shows in two box sets (In stackpaks.) with an English dub.

There's also this bundle.
http://www.rightstuf.com/1-800-338-6827/catalogmgr/n8ptAfq=KsWUaDHE5D/browse/item/93744/4/0/0
Yeah, really great deals at Rightstuf right now.

Persona 4 ep. 9:

Finally, Rise! Fapfapfapfap. And an EVO.

 

[Loliblade ver2]

Guilty Crown 8:

Spoiler

Pretty good episode, some silly fanservice, but definitely welcome :3 So voids are people's hearts, okay we got this. Inori's is a sword because she hurts people(most likely), people open up to that guy(He's pretty cool, I liked him). Now... I wonder what Gai's is? There MUST be a scene with Shu pulling out his void. That would make me happy.

Oi, Baccano Watchers..... The DVD complete collection for $15... worth it, no?

Note: I haven't watched Baccano!, but I intend to. I've heard it's really, really good.

Which leads me to: I also watched Baccano entirely this past internetless week. Good show, with it's unorthodox structure being it's biggest charm indeed. The music was very good too, and it keeps you interested in whatever is gonna happen next/happened long ago. You really onloy begin to tie it all down when you're deep into the series. At the begining anything hardly makes sense, have patience.

But even so, I think there are too many characters at once working. I understand that's one of it's strong points, but there are moments in which even the series can't keep up with all of them, and this really affects character development, which is practically nule with about two or three exceptions.

Also, I think violence is way overused. It seems that everyone is a blodthirsty assasin just for the sake of showing more blood on screen. And bein' such a serious show as it is, it STILL doesn't escape from having two incredibly annoying main characters. It's like a plague.

I would have also liked to see better ambientation, but that's the least of the concerns.

Still, it was pretty solid, I liked it a lot. It was even funnier because the fansub was in Spain spanish, which is VASTLY different from latinamerican spanish, and some of the expressions used in Spain really added some pepper to it.

Good show. Deffinitely worth the $15 bucks. And that mute girl is hot as heck.

EDIT:

Oh and also:

OADA:

omyGod.

It's been confirmed, Fate/Zero is going to be sold here in a limited-edition only BD box set. The catch, it's $370.

[Winters Noble]

Didn't it start off cool and then get really boring? I am still going to give season 2 a chance to see if it's any better.

The second season is not as well put together as the first, but still give it a chance.

 

[Loliblade ver2]

Not as well put together, but definitely more focused on a central plot.

 

[uMadson?]

Madoka Walpurgis 3

Holy, that seems a lot. Nice. 👍

 

[Sephy]

The second season is not as well put together as the first, but still give it a chance.

I don't even care about story with this show. I just wanted to see little girls killing people with machine guns.

Maybe I should just try Strike Witches lol.


Also where is my Haganai?! I needs it!

 

[TheCorvette]

I like how there are no reactions to that $370 BD box set.

Also bad news, my sister told me she's going to need the laptop every day until the 20th, or until she gets her $400 something laptop on Saturday. I don't want to be stuck watching just Dragon Ball Z, ugh.

Well I have hardly anything to talk about in here. I'll probably on Sunday won't be seen at all as I'll have serious hardcore catching-up. Because right now, I'm behind 18 episodes, add today and it's 24, add Friday and it's 31 episodes, add in Saturday, and we're behind 39 episodes.

 

[AOS-]

Go play a game to pass the time. I'm playing NFS til 10.

 

[Lain]

I like how there are no reactions to that $370 BD box set.

It doesn't exist to me. The only box set I'd consider paying that much for is Neon Genesis Evangelion, and that's only if it was autographed by Gendo Ikari.

Episode 6 of Bokurano: Was that a Cappuccino?

Spoiler

How could Chizuru let Kako die a virgin? :3 Also I like this alien (the one with the giant plate thing) because it kind of reminds me of Ramiel.

I know, sucks to be him right?

You almost had me sold...

Thankfully he's starting to man up, like I predicted he would.

Almost done with Noein... I'll be finishing up the last handful of episodes tonight.

What is there to say? It's ridiculous lol.
