Pretty good mango, y'all should read it

It's okay. Caine would probably like it.

This sounds like perfection, why would anyone drop it?

Aldnoah - The second half was definitely the best part of this episode. The first half seemed to deal more with the emerging relationship between Slaine and Sister Princess (already forgotten her name...), which I knew was coming. I can kinda see where that's going to end up too. The second half though had some nice space landscapes (the first thing you see at the start of the episode looked amazing though tbf), the music was decent and I felt there was a touch of Sidonia in there with how the units moved ahead. Inaho has become more "I know everything that'll help us win" though now that his eye can help him calculate even the best trajectory in space, of all places. Them realising who the other was and saying each other's names at the end made me smile for some reason though. Good episode overall.

i liked how crippled princess can use her legs perfectly in 0g

Rolling Girls - This show reminds me of Kyousougiga and Gatchaman Crowds style storytelling and art. I'm going to greatly enjoy this.

[Zatheyll]

I'm still mostly thinking of Yozakura Quartet when I'm watching it, but I guess that's just because I haven't seen the shows you're talking about.

Oh that too, definitely. More than the others even. Didn't think about it though.

Meanwhile in 5 days behind land nothing has been watched...

Anyone in here played Fantasy Life?

Anyone in here played Fantasy Life?

I have not. I'm assuming that you're talking about the 3ds game. I've heard it's pretty fun for a while

[Hemoglobin]

She seemed to enjoy it too lol And it totally makes 100% sense!


I can honestly say I have never even heard of it :S
*looks it up*

I have no 3DS so, explains that lol

3ds are pretty fun. It's pretty much the only gaming I do anymore.

Yeah, I'm considering getting it but I'm worried I might not like it.

[Chelly]

I'll never understand how people can watch things like Naruto dubbed. They're just so bad :S I don't mind a good dub but Naruto is certainly not one of them lol

Never forget

There's people who Nintendo and people who Nintendon't.
Personally, I have always seen the PSP and PSV as the 'cooler' handhelds, with more interesting games.
The fact that I'm still miffed at nintendo has not much to do with it.

[Deleted]

Yeah, I never really had anything Nintendo-related growing up tbh. I've never been that interested in their main products. Not even much of a fan of Zelda >_> Original Pokemon games on my Gameboy were the most involved I ever got I think lol

Thing is, I gre up on nintendo. Gameboy, NES, SNES, had them all.
Yet some day, Playstation overtook them and accelerated even further, leaving them in the dust. I wasn't a nintendo fan anymore.
And then Fatal Frame 4 was released on the wii (and wii exclusive) instead of Playstation/Xbox like before. Didn't even localize it for us western barbarians.
For me, that was the straw that broke the camel's back.

Durarara - Watched the latest episode with a friend, so no arm-long post this time. I am absolutely in love with how great the storytelling is with Durarara. I've always loved how it was done, but the past two episodes have been absolutely stellar. The back and forth, the slight 4th wall breaking, and the telling the story backwards makes everything so much more interesting, and you understand past scenes, even episodes past, with a whole new layer once a new scene is shown that came just before or after it or had some implications with the other scene or storyline going on. Another thing I love that they're still doing so well is showing an entire cast of characters, all living their lives, and how they interact with each other and many of the characters don't even realize how important other characters are that they know, and it's really just the viewer and 1-2 characters that really know what's going on. Brilliant.

How they ended this episode had me on the edge of my seat, that's a fucking brilliant cliffhanger because you both know what happens next (the money gets stolen and put in the briefcase) yet at the same time don't know (how it got there, what happened, etc). Celty's also being as adorable as ever.

The two yuri sisters entering the school is the absolute greatest thing, and I love how they interact with the rest of the class. I'm also greatly enjoying the new guy that's part of the Dollars and helped them out. The scene where both the sisters kiss him had me laughing my ass off. I'm hoping he and the two girls become major and essential characters in the story.

The two nerds are as great as ever. I also have a slight twinge of jealousy too, their lifestyle just seems so fun and interesting and they're such lovable characters personality wise. How they know everything in the city, help out with keeping the city right with their group of friends, and at the same time know everything in the otaku world, along with being so back and forth and hyper about absolutely everything makes them two of my top characters.

The first season of DRRR is already one of my top favorites of all time, but with how season two is going I may end up placing DRRR in my number one position, even above Code Geass.

Graffiti - Also ended up watching this one with a friend. I'm in love with this show. It's so heartwarming and nice to watch. The characters are adorable and the artwork is great. All this does is make me want to visit Japan more and more though.

I am really liking the Music for Rolling girls. All of the songs for Rolling Girls are covers of songs by The Blue Hearts. Hoping for a new insert every episode.
Cute anime girls
80s punk music
Rainbow post-apocolypse

This show is my aesthetic

Insert Song for Episode 1


Insert Song for Episode 2

Also, quick question for you guys: Across all the anime that ends up streamed, names can either be subbed the Japanese way around (surname first) or how we'd pronounce the name in the West. People like FUNimation do it both ways for some reason... but, which way do you guys prefer?

Personally, if a character says "Utoku Masami", I think the subs should reflect that rather than it being flipped to say "Masami Utoku".

I'm personally a flipped person seeing as the subs are there to make it "english" where we (usually) say first name first, though I know either way how it is meant even if the anime itself is set "western"

I prefer the Japanese way with the surname first. If it is the other way around, I usually stop for a moment to flip it in my head to match the voice acting. I often do the same with honorifics too, although it can be a bit distracting to keep up.

That's another thing you could ask: honorifics or no honorifics in subs, I personally like them in
