    Hyouka 18 - I really liked this episode a lot because it wasn't so much a mystery as the previous main arcs. It's not that the major arcs are bad, it's just that it was refreshing to have a nice, small, self-contained bit of mystery that didn't really matter. On top of that, there were some really good character moments with Houtarou and Chitanda. For those with a case of being kinin arimasu episode 18 was the one with their old middle school teacher that liked helicopters.

    I'd say this show is a solid 9/10 so far. It's nothing prolific or profound, it's just a really solid, entertaining show. Soundtrack and animation are tops, characters are good, story is entertaining and engaging.

    The second half of Hyouka is definitely what makes the show.

    Finished Hyouka, 9/10. That final episode was fucking gorgeous. Too bad Oreki is a pussy and didn't actually say what he daydreamed at the end. All in all a really comfortable show to watch that was chill enough to relax to but interesting enough to keep you sucked in. Hate that it just kinda ended; I might have to pick up the novels.

    That dream-like scene where he ogles her in her kimono makes you want him to propose to her right then and there and then immediately consummate their marriage.

    Otome Game 'Nil Admirari no Tenbin: Teito Genwaku Kitan' to Receive Anime Adaptation



    Spoiler: 
    The Taishou era didn't end in 15 years, but went on for another 25. In order to protect her waning family, a girl resolves to marry a man she doesn't even know the name of. However, just before the marriage was to take place, the girl's younger brother mysteriously committed suicide by self-immolation and was found holding an old book in his hands. Appearing before the bewildered young girl was the "Imperial Library Intelligence Asset Management Bureau," more commonly referred to as "Fukurou." According to these men, there exists "Maremono," which are books that greatly affects its readers. On top of that, ever since the incident involving the girl's younger brother, she unwittingly gains the ability to see "Auras" (the sentiments of the Maremono which manifest as bright lights and are usually invisible to humans). It was as though fate were trying to drag the young girl in its flames. And then, even though apprehensive, the girl chooses to venture outside her bird cage. Jealousy, hatred, scorn, compassion and love. What awaited the girl was the darkness of betrayal that had already begun to bewitchingly inlay the imperial capital. Toyed by and swayed within that darkness, will the young girl finally reach the truth after her struggles, or…? (Source: VNDB, edited)

    I've watched 21 episodes of Monster so far and I don't think I'm going to finish it. As previously mentioned, it definitely drags on, but that isn't the biggest issue. Each new little group of characters and subplot they move onto just feels disjointed. I mean, there is a connection to the main story line and you can see that, but it just feels erratic and doesn't exactly feel too interconnected. It's like a bunch of loosely related stories tossed together and when the show is finally over you get to piece together this weird puzzle.

    Mekakucity Actors/Kagerou Daze Gets More Anime



    The four-part Niconico streaming program "Seek at Mekakucity," which began on August 7 and featured Kagerou Project characters, ended on Tuesday with an announcement that the franchise will get "more anime." The end of the video reveals a tentative title for a new anime: "Mekakucity Reload."

    The video did not specify that the new anime would be a sequel to the first television anime. However, the video did specify that the new anime is not the immersive MX4D anime short film that is slated for this winter.

    I started a couple days ago on a Nuzlocke. It's brutal. All these new Pokemon fucking me sideways. Just beat the second gym, but doing it with a friend so I'm not going through quickly. Harambe-tan the Mankey is helping carry my team.

    Oh damn. I guess it's time though.

    This is pure hype. Holy shit I'm excited.
