    Penguindrum continues to be awesome. I hated Masako when she first showed up, but each episode I started liking her more and more. The last scene with her was badass.

    Persona; Yu pressing the record button... lol Battle was good, I like that they're keeping with game elements with the whole scanning thing, thought that was cool. Animation was better, but the last fight was disappointing (though I probably shouldn't expect that much considering how long the fight was in the game). Also, love the strip club music, was so inappropriate but right at the same time.

    Guilty Crown... Oh Shu. One step forward, five steps back.

    UN-GO was good again this week, can't wait to see what happens next episode.

    So I've seen it a lot lately and I have to ask, do Ineed to watch the original The Last Exile to understand the currently airing one? Or can I pick it up without prior knowledge? (or at least wikipedia knowledge)

    Right now there doesn't seem much you'd need to know from the first series, but lots of stuff would make a lot more sense since the beginning.

    Masako has been interesting since she got her own episode. She isn't my favorite, but she definitively pull her weight now. The series as a whole is getting really depressing tho. I don't see how it can get a happy ending at this point without killing one or two characters.

    Persona was the other way around for me. I hated the first 15min, and loved the last 5. The first part made me laugh a few times, but this shadow was done better in the game.

    [edit]
    Un-go was great like always. I'm impressed how much the investigation improved since the first few episodes. At first, it felt very gimmicky and the viewer had no real chance to solve anything, but lately, they have done a great jobs at setting up the crime and showing you just enough clue to make it feels clever.

    No, but I would watch the first season simply because it's an awesome series, and is much better than the second.


    It's still a direct continuation with a new cast however with certain recurring character. You don't need the knowledge from the first last exile for now, but you might eventually.

    Yar, you're fine for now, but if they go any deeper, watching the first series will be very helpful for understanding a few characters.

    Also, Horizon was better again this week. And the pacing gets an explanation, it IS a full season series, the second half will start airing spring next year.

    Well, it's possible they'd do some fate alteration to just make a reset button for everything, with the help of the penguin drum function of Momoka's diary or something.

    I'm just a bit sad on the lack of Seizon Senryoku

    Himari dying at the aquarium where everything started is not a coincidence. I have a feeling we are in for either an epic ending or an epic troll, either way it's going to be pretty insane.

    Also, I loved Double-H...why are big foreheads so moe? I freaking love the Hi*aris.

    The journal is going to alter people fate, but last time it was used, it took someone's life in exchange. That's why I expect to see something sad happen.

    still hasn't really explained the true nature of the seizon himari, im guessing she's the one entity that can fuck sanetoshi over and truly utilize the diary

    Working Season 2 Ep 11

    Adorable episode. Man this show makes me feel all warm and fuzzy.


    Fate/Zero Ep 11 Rider is Awesome, all Hail Rider

    Another solid episode. I love most about this episode is how much room they give characters to breathe. People can sit around and talk about stuff, instead of just being rushed into fights with less meaning and purpose just for the sake of action.

    I'm still impressed on how consistent Fate/Zero has been in terms of entertainment value.

    Rider stole the whole episode yet again.
    Spoiler: show

    Jesus Christ Iskandar, take me now

    Also, I can't help but think "America Fuck Yeah" playing on the background as he was explaining his path of the conqueror

    Really liked the last ep of Un-Go, the last couple of episodes are going to be pretty crazy.

    I want to be friends with Iskandar. Just hang out, in a totally mutual fashion.

    They scaled back the animation in this episode from "oh my god have my children" to "pretty good", probably to conserve some of their outrageous budget for some of the most amazing things yet to come.

    As much as I loved Rider in this episode (as many of us do), I have to give more props to Archer. I know he's the supposed bad guy...but I can't help but to like his character. The whole smug explanation of "because its already mine" and him claiming to be the one true king, yet turning around and agreeing to sit down and drink with Rider and giving advice to Saber just wins me over.

    And now that I've said that....he's probably gonna be offed sooner than I want >.>
