Baka 11: HNGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

[SamanosukeShiva]

I like Ryuji, he's the only one of the three with any talent or balls. The other two annoy me as well (especially Konekomaru, what a piece of shit lol). Shura is more or less fine, she has cool action scenes and big boobs if nothing else. Fujimoto is that teacher with the shaved beard right? The gay one? Yukio had his dumb blonde moment, but apart from that he's fine (and if it should continue, will be fine).

Rin steals the show for me, the way he reacted when Yukio turned Paladin was unexpected and nice. Apart from Konekomaru (and Shima being useless), I don't hate anyone really.

Alternatively, No. 6 has finished. Kind of a gay ending (literally), and overall I'm not sure how I felt about the whole thing. But at least Nezumi and Sion had a good thing going. I still liked it, pacing is all kinds of fucked up though.

Shiro Fujimoto is the dad/Paladin/strongest exorcist. I like Ryuji also, +he got zoro voice. Yukio if anything reminds me of mustang from FMA.

And next week, yukio

Spoiler: show

the preview shows him having blue flame/horn =o

[Elcura]

Oh yeah, I remember now. Yeah, he's pretty cool, though it says a lot about your opinion of the show if your favourite character is the dead guy, lol

Spoiler: show

And yeah, Yukio is probably possessed by Satan or something.

I just assumed it was his demon powers awakening, didn't even think about that possibility. =x

Interesting turn of events though. I kind of thought they would draw out their grandfather being the bad guy for longer, but at this rate, he may very well be dead next episode.

I dunno how many episodes are left or if there's even more to go on, but depending on how much is left I foresee the granddad dying very soon too.

Kamina says fuck you

[Avvesione]

I think you were right to say March. Daru is giving out the chocolates so it's a White Day seasonal promo.

Wait, Daru isn't a girl?

Mind = Blown

He's easily the most awesome character.

And you should know that a ton of my favorites are background characters. Celty and Shinra weren't minor characters in Durarara but they were, by far, my favorites. I liked that young snow girl, Konayuki, in Katanagatari the most out of anyone. My favorite in Star Driver was Mami, the freckled fisher (Undine). And you watched Softenni, right? I loved Shouko Tsuchida. And now you're asking yourself, 'wtf, who's that?' and do an image search, you'll all those first few images link to my blog. I'm like the only person to ever talk about her but she was one of my favorite (3rd behind Kotone and Asuna).

I've always had a soft spot for minor characters, so it should be no surprise that I love some more than anyone else in a series. Just because they're not fully developed, important, or someone you'd want to become doesn't mean they can't have the same appreciation as the main cast.

Kamina had more than 1 episode to leave an impression lol. The best of Fujimoto is post death, so really you're sympathizing with the other characters rather than Fujimoto.

I've seen Softenni and I still have NO idea who Shouka is lol

[Pharaun]

I just finished No. 6 and wow that was fucking terrible. I can see why some people might enjoy it, but that show had so many issues that I can't believe I actually finished it, should have dropped it after 3-4 eps.

[Zilong]

homophobe

[SamanosukeShiva]

wow... steins gate story was.. amazing

[Maguspk]

Why is Nichijou so perfect?

dat humor
dat animation
dat character interaction
dat feels

So sad it's ending...really wish there was more material and the series was more well received in Japan. Really makes me angry sometimes how terrible their taste is and how some really great anime go under the radar and die these days, in favor of moeshit/harem garbage.

I would watch Nichijou if it aired forever, so good. Kind of forgot it was ending so soon even though it has gone on for 2 seasons technically. It is sad that it isn't that popular in Japan.

Usagi Drop ended this week on episode 11. =( Way too short for how good of a show it is. Might just give up and end up reading the manga.

The first half of Usagi Drop is good. But after the time skip, it goes downhill quite rapidly. Also, dat ending >_>

I agree about Nichijou, such a good anime. We've been spoiled this last season (2 seasons I guess). Anohana, Nichijou, Steins;Gate, Usagi Drop, Sket Dance started getting good (slow start, but the manga started slow too), Gintama started up again, S2 of Bakatest. I might be missing 1 or 2, but overall really good last couple months. To top it off, One Piece is 1 episode away from the time skip, and Naruto is a couple episodes away from a REALLY GOOD story arc (...Naruto has its moments, I will admit >_>).

Manga has a few more chapters that you can read until time skip, but yeah generally afterwards it turns into more of a typical shoujo. It's still readable, but definitely not as charming or heart warming as the previous stuff.

zomg double post

[Gulkeeva]

Tiger and bunny had a nice fight for the ending episode, looking forward to season 2!

[Elcura]

Yeah, that fight was sick and the epilogue was satisfying. Can't wait for season 2 cause I fucking love this show. I wish they had more of the advertising/business aspect of being a hero that I loved from the first half, but I do like the story line they got going on, and the serious/continuous nature is what I wanted more of. Balancing is hard lol

Nichijou was great, that episode had it all. Goddamn Mai is still so epic and confusing.

[Maguspk]

Animated better than the rebuild Eva movies, so good.
