What anime are you watching thread 2.0 ~ Now with more upcoming weeaboo nonsense.

Massive spoiler

That wasn't a review. You didn't just spoil the ending. you spoiled the every major event in the series.

[TotalPotato]

Thanks for the spoiler, I hadn't watched it yet.

This is one of those occasions where I think it's no great loss if the spoiler put you off watching it.

(Seriously though, unmarked spoilers are bad)

I guess that's true. I think I remember hearing the final spoiler for that series before but I blocked it out. I doubt I can do that a second time though.

Chuunibyou Demo Koi ga Shitai! - 1
Chuunibyou Demo Koi ga Shitai! Lite - 1
ef - a tale of memories - 2
Hunter X Hunter - 49
K - 1
Space Brothers - 26

I got some odd No. 6 vibes from the end of K's new episode. The show looks good so far but I'm getting some "it's gonna crash and burn" feelings.

Usually when shows try too hard, and go all out too soon, they end up failing harder.

Except for Chuunibyou, it is golden<3

At least K has an awesome seiyuu cast, No. 6 had like no redeeming factors by the time it was over.

Unless you're a yaoi fanboy....then it had a couple.

My problem isn't that it's trying too hard. I'm just worried how much fujoshi pandering it's going to end up doing. Not my cup 'o tea.

That's what's keeping me from turning tail right now, the cast.

Hey, Fujoshi-girls are like an integral meme in anime of present and past years.

I'm pretty gay but I enjoy the opposite of fujoshi pandering Yuru-Yuri~

[Jolteon91]

That Neko is totally furry pandering.... I think.... I'm stil not sure if she counts.

That's what's keeping me from turning tail right now, the cast.

I will watch to the end purely for the cast, even if it turns bad, I mean if I were to list my top 5 male seiyuu they would all be voicing characters in this show, while 3 of my top 10 female seiyuu are voicing characters.

[Jb]

I don't I could watch a show just for the VA's.

[Durian Seed]

it speaks for the quality and likeability of Chuunibyou, when this threads oldest and most active contributors have Rikka in their sigs.

[Jolteon91]

I think it is a bigger indication of how many gif-able (that's totally a word now) moments there are in the first episode alone.

[Charizard Champion#06]

That Neko is totally furry pandering.... I think.... I'm stil not sure if she counts.

I'm gonna say no. I'm no furry, never was, never will be.
But Neko's hot. Only when "in human form" or whatever. I'm looking forward to more of that.

I'm still impressed/happy that they collected all those awesome voices.

I don't I could watch a show just for the VA's.

I could. If I really like the voice. If it had NO other good points it'd be a hard watch and I might give up though.

You've got the tumblr kind though. With a filter and artsy quote for no reason. >_>

I was hesitant to watch the first episode of Zetsuen no Tempest because Bones have done nothing but disappoint me lately, but the first episode was quite interesting, though there's still a of time for them to go off the rails. Also, I like Sawashiro Miyuki's voice more and more every time I hear it.

I'm gonna say no. I'm no furry, never was, never will be.

I'm going to go with you on this, I don't wanna be a furry, but she's hot.

Me too, a lot of my enjoyment comes from liking characters, and it's much easier for me to like characters when they have great seiyuu, then you have Ono Daisuke, Fukuyama Jun, Miyano Mamoru, Nakamura Yuuichi and Sugita Tomokazu all in the same series and I'm sold (and that's without mentioning Sawashiro Miyuki, Horie Yui and Satou Satomi.)

I could. If I really like the voice. If it had NO other good points it'd be a hard watch and I might give up though.

I have watched shows purely for seiyuu in the past, and it's likely I'll do so again in the future.

Oh no don't tell me THAT. I don't want to get into that show, half because of what you said about Bones, half because of No. 6 and how this one kinda looks a bit similar.

[Jolteon91]

She's the main heroine too. It also has Hanazawa Kana, though that shouldn't surprise because she is in everything else.

[Charizard Champion#06]

She's the main heroine too.

AUGH STOP IT. Please...

Cardcaptor Sakura - 43/70
Smile Precure - 32/??
Motto Ojamajo Doremi - 3/50
Mahou no Princess Minky Momo - 5/63
Minami-ke - 13/13 [COMPLETE]

And now it's time for the rundown.

Cardcaptor Sakura is going well as usual. I'd forgotten that Meiling disappears from the show at this point. Sad but understandable because she's an anime exclusive character, and they don't want her mucking up the manga's plot.

Not bothering with this week's Smile Precure.

Even now, 100 or so episodes later, Ojamajo Doremi is still fantastic and lovable. I've grown to like this new girl, Momoko, already. The Engrish is a little awkward, you'd think a character who's supposed to be so used to speaking English that she's lost grasp of Japanese would speak it more fluently. Also: Those Hana-chan feels. T_T

It's rare that I actually WANT to watch more than three episodes of an anime at once, usually it has to be very entertaining, so the fact that I just finished the last three episodes of Minami-Ke in one go says something to me. Very fun series despite being a slice of life with cute girls doing cute things. The only character I really didn't like was Makoto and his lack of a volume switch. I'm a little wary of the second season because from what I've read it increases the fanservice quite a bit, it doesn't use any of the source material, which basically sounds like one big filler season, and what have they done to my Chiaki?

Oh well, I'll take some time away before I consider picking that up. In the mean time maybe I can watch something besides Magical Girls and Moe Moe slice of life! Bah.

What is it with this season and boring opening episodes that don't bother to establish much at all? It doesn't create a sense of mystery. It makes me not give a damn about what I'm watching. It's why I won't go on with Tempest or K, and why I've dropped From the New World as GUILTY BY ASSOCIATION. K wins as the worst of the three, though. That CGI. That goddam terrible CGI. Btooom! doesn't have this problem. It was just dull, with a stupid and unlikable protagonist, some dumb plot holes and too many Gantz vibes to be enjoyable.

I've also removed FMA and Yu Yu because I'm not deluding myself that I'm going to get back to them anymore. While Yu Yu has great source material and therefore good core writing as well as some phenomenal dub work, the lazy animation and terrible pacing just make it a chore after a while. The first half of FMA was some of the best anime I've ever seen, spinning weak source material (I've tried getting into both the manga and Brotherhood but couldn't) into pure animated gold. But once that source material ran out, it just went off the rails and I lost interest. I think the main problems is that the Elric brothers seemed to become side-characters in their own story and that the show lost the brilliant balance between episodic and arc-based that it had going.

[SmartD]

I finished Slayers Revolution today, it was neat. Tomorrow, I will start Evolution-R.

[arceus7]

Watching K and Zetsuen no Tempest, they finally fixed the first episode of Btoom on the subs so going to watch that now

[DawnBoy]

Well I've watched part of Naruto Shippuden today to watch the entire Sasuke vs Itachi fight.
Also re-watching Pokemon DP whenever I get the chance to use an actual computer.
