Weird, I just started reading Freezing like 2 days ago... it is weird.

[avelle]

Almost finished watching The Sacred Blacksmith, and I have to admit, it was pretty good. Some typicalness you would expect from anime, but it's nice to see something medieval-ish and fantasy. The fights are awesome and the animation/art is great, the writing can be nice at times and above all, it has magic fucking swords.

Only 12 episodes, so not like you'd waste your life watching it.

I really liked it but felt like the ending was pretty meh. Too short.

Yeah I liked it decently as far as the shonen aspects went. After Luke forged his first sword I knew I'd probably watch the whole thing regardless of what happened lol.

That was pretty awesome, I was pretty much in the same boat.

Hyakka Ryouran SAMURAI GIRLS Trailer 2(credit animesuki)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Btbo9z_kxAU

50% of the trailer was censored with ink mark. yeah I shouldn't expect coming the company that did Queen's Blade but I will give it a chance, it may be good.(Ep1 airs on September 3rd)

[Man0warr]

I love Freezing! Hope they don't do an original ending like Black God.

In fact I read all Lim Dal Young stuff religiously - Freezing, Onhime VS, Aflame Inferno, Legend of Maian, and especially Unbalance X Unbalance (though it's been on hiatus forever).

Also, Samurai Girls is based off light novels, Queen's Blade is based off just figures/games. So hopefully they don't go full nudity all the time like Queen's Blade.

Edit: nm, looks like both Samurai girls and Queen's Blade are made by Hobby Japan, just different media, oh well I'll still watch!

Someone showed a preview of this a while back right? It looks familiar. Queen's Blade was mildly entertaining so I'll probably check this out as well. Honestly I'll likely watch anything that has pretty good art. If it looks good enough, I'll usually suffer through the story.

[JigglyJam]

Well watched half of first Queen's Blade season and eventually the nipples only effect wears off and then there's pretty much nothing left in terms of a show so I'm stopping.

Amagami I think is my favorite show this season. It seems like they're picking which girls to do first about the same way I go about choosing in the dating sims. I usually start out with the childhood friend or the prettiest one first. Before I saw the previews for the next arc I said it has to be the "fattie" or the chick the two guys hang out with and sure enough.

NisiOisin's Kizumonogatari Light Novel Gets Anime
http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news...vel-gets-anime

A flyer included with NisiOisin's Nekomonogatari light novel has announced on Wednesday that production on a third NisiOisin anime project, Kizumonogatari, has been green-lit. This will be the latest NisiOisin work to be animated after Bakemonogatari and Katanagatari. The two-volume Kizumonogatari story is a prequel to the Bakemonogatari light novel series.

The flyer's copyright lists NisiOisin himself, the light novel's publisher Kodansha, the production company Aniplex, and the anime studio SHAFT.

The online retailer Amazon in Japan had listed Blu-ray and DVD editions of Kizumonogatari and Nisemonogatari — the prequel and sequel, respectively, to Bakemonogatari — in January, but those listings have since been removed.

[KuroTsuki]

Nice nice.

Is that anime supposed to cover the events that took place during Golden Week?

[Ker]

it's suppose to be, Shaft released a promo shot.

Didn't the author say he'll bring Unbalance X Unbalance from hiatus after the Japanese release is caught up with the Korean ones?

Index Novel 13

I was reading English translation by http://www.baka-tsuki.org through it's not completed it's very good translation with some minor changes to make sense from JP counter part. I hope to god this doesn't get into the cutting room cause Accelerator is such a deadly badass in this Arc, if they get to novel13 in season 2 that is.

Spoiler: show

Accelerator braces his one hand against a nearby wall and presses the shotgun's muzzle at the side of the black-clad's cheek.

"Y, you're joking, right...?"

Unexpectedly, the voice was high-pitched. Observing very closely, he realizes that it's a feminine line even though it's a black-clad.

"Joke? Yeah."

Whatever, Accelerator appropriately omitted,

"A new one."

He pulled the trigger.

She's grabbing onto her mouth with both her broken hands, but both of them were strangely getting into the inside her face. For everything below her jaw was blown off sideways by the shotgun. Were those hands out of the way, one would find out that only her upper jaw was lining up in a row.

Accelerator noticed something warm sticking onto his own cheek.

Moving it with his tongue and holding it in his mouth, he chews it along with his saliva. It has the taste of flesh.

"Aha..."

As he messily and sloppily chews with his mouth, he stands in front of the woman whose jaw was blown off.

Both vomit and shit have spouted from her.

[Man0warr]

Didn't the author say he'll bring Unbalance X Unbalance from hiatus after the Japanese release is caught up with the Korean ones?

Yes, the Japanese release just caught up with the Korean ones. Apparently though he will just be releasing them as whole volumes now with no magazine serialization. Who knows when we will see the next volume.

well that sucks, I would be happy but the author has so many series already in serialization, we probably won't see the continuation until next year, especially in volume form...

Ookami-San Ep5

Great episode for the series so far. it had a nice mixer of comedy, sexual humor, action, mystery and some minor drama.

-Momo-Chan is just a tease in every scene, she has a killer body and she is not afraid to use it.
-The body armor was a funny touch to Ookami-san get up.
-worshiping Momo-chan (Hey let me join).
-2 mysterious character appeared, hopefully more will be revealed later on.
-More fast shots of Ookami's past, wonder what happened between those two cause she almost lost it.

Is anyone elses MAL Updater giving a 'Service Disabled' error?

[Man0warr]

Yeah, something wrong with MAL's mysql database most likely.

[njitjk68]

I just started getting into watching anime, which groups are recommended to download from? Sometimes theres multiple fansubs being done on the same anime, I'm not sure if one group is better than the other.

[Elcura]

GG, Eclipse, Mazui, Coalguys, BSS, UTW, Crunchysubs, Horriblesubs and Ravesubs are a few good ones.

Honestly though, maybe it's better to say what subbers to stay away from, or is that an even bigger list?

[KuroTsuki]

Chihiro is pretty decent too.

There's also SHIN-gx, Doki, and Mochi, but all three of them are kind of slow.

[octopus]

Chihiro is pretty decent too.

I haven't gotten any of their release for a long time, but I remember they sucked ;o

[KuroTsuki]

I dunno. I used them for To-LOVE-Ru and saw a little bit of their K-On! when a friend was watching it and it seemed alright to me.
