Are you telling me that it isn't?

Log Horizon helped me figure out why I hate Sword Art Online so much. SAO is not actually about MMO's. It's just a fantasy setting, which uses an MMO as a faulty pretext. The episodic nature was initially what set me off about it, but at best, SAO had some MMO concepts mixed in (Helping the girl revive her pet being a side-quest, that dumb murder mystery being a sort of allegory for a quest), but aside from having health bars, there was nothing MMO-y about SAO at all.

Which is why I actually like Log Horizon, because it actually gives its source material justice, where SAO just shits all over it because Kirito's harem is more important.

This dude in Shirobako who basically fucked up getting stuff done on time and still gave everyone attitude really reminded me of some efedders lol.

Only a minute and 50 seconds into the second episode and I just had to post how just too good the animation of Bahamut is. Like what the fuck, it's crazy. we are not worthy.

I went back to the vid and clicked it to continue, and the intro started with either a game of thrones reference or just a coincidental mirror image, I can't believe it, they're trying to kill to me or wanted me to post a lot on this thread. I might have to rate this shit a ten with only two episodes.

Bah Gawd News: Studio Trigger (Kill La Kill & Gurren Lagann and Pixar might be working on a collaboration

Summer anime.

Best Main Protagonist – Inaho Kaizuka(Aldnoah.Zero)

He’s one of the only main characters that sort of remind me to one of my favourite anime characters of all time in Kino from Kino’s Journey, he’s a really thoughtful guy and unlike most main male characters he isn’t some dumb guy who eats a lot with super strength or this annoyingly crybaby character, he’s just a chill guy who thinks about what he does, yet he isn’t as emotionless as people would like to try to make him out to be(he obviously cares about his friends and family(keeping small memorabilia of his sister encouraging him to give him comfort before battle, his people and his sister described the subtle details of his feelings). Plus his quote about wars and why they happen and how they end was quite a nice spin.

Best Main Antagonist –The US Government(Zankyou no Terror)

Perhaps it is due to  seeing America as a friendly next door neighbor, all the Canadian and US jokes aside, but I found it quite a stun to see how they portrayed the US government in this anime. The atomic bomb stuff and all that was one thing because that was war(though the anime tried to even display them as villains as that), but the way that characterized US was basically like the heavy hand in the background weighing down on EVERYONE. Without the US government there would have been no story, no Japan trying to come back from being losers to the point of making a child intelligence raising labour camp basically, no Five return, no one usurping the authority of the Japanese police force and outside the police, who weren’t giving the main characters that much trouble, the main characters plans would went down perfectly. Even by the end of the anime, the US government, who even went as far as putting the lives of multiple Japanese people on the line to bombs and airplane crashes, left with their parts in the story remaining as a secret to the public and certain key characters dead by their hands, reminding us all that some forces are just too big to budge. One of the few Antagonists to actually win by story‘s end.

Best Soundtrack-Aldnoah.Zero

Best Opening- Tokyo Ghoul

Best Ending- Zankyo no Terror

Best Story- Zankyou no Terror

Best Animation-Zankyou no Terror

Best Characters- Zankyou no Terror

Best Comedy- Barakamon

Worst Overall Anime – Glasslip

Trash. Didn’t even live up to the name or description that made it sound like it would be about a group of friends and a main chick who was trying to become glass artisan as the main plot.  It became this really dull and slow moving story.

Best Overall Anime- Zankyou no Terror

A very compelling story with a cast I think anyone can find a character they like, if not many characters, the cast has meaningful people with varying different characteristics and positions, it even turned this one guy I thought I would hate into a really great character trying to help the detective even if it would put himself in danger-I rarely change my opinions on characters-. It casts quite a wide net of a bomber plot, a coming of age story, a romance and every crime solving mystery.


Ranking best to worst.

Just caught up on Akame ga Kill (episode 19) and I'm being told the anime has officially went off the tracks from the manga after being mostly faithful to the source material. From what I've gathered, it's because

Spoiler:

This, among other things, has made some say they'll be doing an anime original ending, so paging Dr. GI for your thoughts on this, and don't forget to cover up any manga spoilers.

Well, I'm admittedly like 10 episodes behind, but based on your descriptions, I think what might end up happening is

Spoiler:

Providing that assumption doesn't happen, however, they have like one more complete arc (plus some kind-of-sort-of-filler stuff), followed by the semi-complete arc they are currently involved with in the manga right now. If they are going how I think they're going, there will be an AgK2 released in a year or two, which will end the series, since based on how things are progressing in the story, it does seem like they're about to reach the climax sooner rather than later (This last bit not placed in spoiler tags, since it is all largely baseless speculation).

I should also make it clear that

Not sure if that changes anything, but yeah, figured I'd specify.

Honestly, I can't 100% remember what

Spoiler:

Although that probably doesn't change much, really.

Big News that I think we all overlooked: Laughing Under the Clouds and Psycho-Pass 2 will both be getting English Dub releases WHILE the animes are still airing in Japan. LUTC's first dubbed episode has already been released and Psycho-Pass 2's is on its way with the cast already being announced (with the voice of Vegeta, Zoro, Kuwabara, and others, Chris Sabat, playing Togane ).

Alright, they HAVE to be fucking with us...

Since I couldn't find any any anime to get into , I have challenged myself to catch with detective conan and one piece

Anyone here watch and follow Parasyte The Maxim? I watched this episode and it seems that's good one. Is that worth to watch?

I've seen about 6 episodes of it and say it's definitely worth the watch. Madhouse has been knocking it out of the park with this anime, and while it doesn't fill the hole in my heart where Hunter x Hunter left, it suffices quite nicely. I'm enjoying the characters, the story, the soundtrack (love the dubstep incorporated into it), the OP, the ED - pretty much everything. If it didn't have such stiff competition with the likes of Psycho-Pass 2, Mushishi Zoku Shou S2, Shingeki no Bahamut, and Fate/Stay Night: Unlimited Blade Works, it could have been the top anime of this season.

I somehow not really like the OP. i don't know.... screams and autotunes kinda don't mix in my ears lol.

Besides that, I love the latest episode of this anime. makes me wanna follow all the episodes.

 Fear, and Loathing in Las Vegas always gets hate for their screaming and autotune, but for some reason I can't help but like their music. Loved the ED they did for Hunter x Hunter too.

I don't really hate that song, actually.... I look at the lyrics and it suits for Parasyte's OP so much. but if that song is less-autotuned it would be much much cool

Speaking of Parasyte, I didn't know that there's a Live Action movie for this anime. I look at Sara Takatsuki's blog and she said she just watched the premiere.

Just finished watching all the current Parasyte episodes, different than what I normally expected, good stuff. Time for Terra Formars catch up.

All caught up with Terra Formars. It's a solid anime, IDK about great though.

The winter season is going to be good. I'm looking forward to AC, KNB season 2, Death Parade, and Durarara season 2.
