Anime Thread. [Prob not 56k safe]

Hmm, what is KyoAni doing this fall? Haruhi is supposed to end before most of this stuff begins, right? Does KyoAni not announce what they're doing that often?

[Zilong]

Cool, Inuyasha, wonder if they'll have a good pacing and stay true to the manga since it's finished now. I haven't watched much of the original series, but might have to to prepare myself for the end.

I read the first chapter or two of Fairy Tail and it looked decent, might have to check out the anime too.

Hate to break it to you and all, but even inu yasha's manga is filler laden and unbearable.

It's like bleach, but the average cupsize are about 2 size smaller

DtB and Railgun is the only thing that catch my eye there, but who knows, maybe some awesome shit will pop up. That and FMA is still going, and by the time it gets to fall, I'd imagine it'd be awesome enough to make me care less about the lack of series.

mmm looking forward to darker then black, and more queens blade ... O_o

[Scythiroth]

Ugh, Inuyasha goes on forever. I guess I am curious how long they will make this "final act" of the anime, I will probably end up watching it. =(

[Zilong]

100 episode, with only about 20 of them being relevant enough involving naraku i'd imagine.

I mean I honestly kept up with the fucking manga, and hated myself for it. Naraku would be like 1 shard close to completing the shikon, yet the gang would be off doing something to help some random villager that's being hounded by some lesser youkai that wouldn't even get a fucking name if it lived in gensokyo.

That Nogizaka no himitsu: purezza a sequel?
And which anime is occupying the noitemina slot?

Yeah, it's a sequel, think the first season is just Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu. I've watched a few of the episodes, wasn't bad, but wasn't exciting enough to keep my attention, I'll probably re-download it at some point to finish it though.

Trapeze picture scare me. Also, wtf at the sci-fi lion king thing, and most of the bottom row.

I don't know what to think...nothing caught my attention in that list. I might watch Darker than Black since everyone praised it, and I will need something to prevent boredom.

Trapeze

Kyoto don't need an anime this season It's K-ON! merchandise is sell like hot cake right now but They're looking for next hit anime IP like the long rumored Mirai Nikki or The World God Only Knows (them or Gonzo) or like K-ON/Haruhi a relatively unheard of Manga/Novel.

Fall Anime season seems interesting alot of sequels which I don't mind but still upset they made kampfer into an anime when Manga still running with only 2 Vol's released so hurray for more pointless fanserivce and possibly an original anime ending.

I've seen it said a few times, so I have to wonder why the wiki says this:

The first novel of the series, The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya was awarded the Grand Prize in the eighth annual Sneaker Awards—only the third Grand Prize given out in the Award's history. The series went on to be a huge success in Japan, selling over 4,300,000 copies collectively.

If it's relatively unknown, how did it win a Grand Prize at some award ceremony and sell 4.3 million copies? Or is that supposed to only be after the anime came out that it sold that many?

[Correction]

Trapeze picture scare me.

And that's exactly why I'm going to watch it. I'm immensely drawn to shows which stretch the boundaries of what's done with anime. Even if it sucks I know I'm in for at least one surprise. Synopses elsewhere don't seem to promise the same.

I never take Wiki as my number one source of info and Wiki isn't clear if it's before or after the anime Hit (like you said) so I'm assuming after but like Wiki said it took Japan by storm so yes it'll sell millions and get notice by the japanese community.

Not saying the opposite. I usually give a shot to anything that break the typical anime mold and sound like it's an original idea. (ie: not seitokai no ichizon or nogizaka...how can they still make poster like this)

No idea why but I'm actually kinda happy to see this coming. I find the most recent chapters kind of boring, frankly, but the early stuff (especially the Phantom arc) were pretty entertaining. Letter Bee looks kind of interesting, if more than a little bizarre. Sasameki Koto looks depressing, but interesting. Most of the rest looks kinda generic (also roffleboard at inu yasha final act).

[SamanosukeShiva]

that look alot like luffy

What the hell just happened in Umineko 5. o.o

[Zilong]

it's the animated version of the interludes in between arcs.

It's like when rika was talking to herself in the universe with all those crystal falling around her in higurashi kai.

Basically, frederica bernkastle will act as the observer of battler's journey as beatrice keep running the same scenario where she'd just kill everyone while battler tried to explain everything in a logical manner that'd prove she doesn't exist. I suppose bernkastle would be the chronicler of the flags in the game, along with giving hints in the scenario.

If he wins, then he'll break the cycle and probably have everything returned to normal, nobody dies, etc. If he loses, then he'd just be stuck in that scenario that would end with him and everyone else in ushiromiya family dying miserably.

I feel the need to intrude on your thread and write a short review of Eden of the East.

Gratuitous male nudity. Comedy. Comedic male nudity. No female nudity. 10/10
