Sildani Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Well done. I haven't seen it yet. Last anime series I put serious effort into seeing was the Golgo 13 TV series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchizophrenicMC Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 So I've been hearing about this new anime called The Super Dimension Fortress Macross. Something about aliens and singing. I dunno, sounds cheesy. Probably won't watch it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That tried to use the Orphan troops as shields to mask their escape. Mikazuki was 100% justified. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well if its going for a more sombre/barbaric vibe it did work! Even the gundam has giant battering axe/barbarian weapon. I thk the creators have been watching some game of thrones episodes! That mikazuki boy gonna have a hard time doing his turn to pacifism! Or will he? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McFly!! Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 CRAP! That's what I was supposed to be watching alongside One Punch Man! hahaha it has an intriguing premise but i almost feel like i don't care enough about the characters to ask background questions one punch man, i hafta admit, is cooler than the title may lead someone to conclude. i checked the manga out and i'm glad they kept just enough of the dirty (messy not ecchi) style in the anime It's its own AU, not a sequel, so yeah. Also, watch Unicorn. agree on both points, and cannot emphasize the second one enough. also, watch the msg origin, especially if you're into zakus (especially the kind that's 3x faster!)

Partially disappointed they aren't continuing on from Second Raid. Partially glad because I rewatched the series recently shortly after reading the books it covers, and the first series is not handled as well as it should be. Mostly? Hoping it's followed with a Fumoffu! II. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I don't mind a reboot, I just want a complete story where all loose ends are tied up and character motivations are settled. Now from this image, of Shoji Gatoh I can clearly see the ARX-8 Laevatein so I think it might be safe to say we are finally getting the events after TSR animated.

Marzan Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 I really do hope that they are commited to finishing the story all the way to the last novel. I'd hate if they do a 'Berserk', where they end up adapting exactly the same bit of story that had been done before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Posted October 25, 2015 Share Posted October 25, 2015 Yup, I'm hoping they go more the route of FMA: Brotherhood and "do it right this time." Of course, I'm also still waiting for mor Spice And Wolf, and a proper Haruhi continuation. At least, Monogatark Series is delivering.

Major Focker Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 (edited) glad some folks here are picking up Yamada kun, it has one of those synopses that insta-tunes-out a lot of folks who have their anti-ecchi/harem/romcom sensors on. now onto this season: Owarimonogatari - fantastic! naturally. i'm still pining for Shinobu though. thankfully, i got my Senjo-fix with her cameo and that (literally) killer line. Noragami Aragoto - risking accusations of heresy, i will have to say this show is stealing not inconsiderable thunder from Owari. i think the first season mostly flew under the radar when it was airing, but checking back on MAL now it seems to have made it to the 300's rank from quite beyond 1000 previously IIRC. this 2nd season, the show has taken a much darker turn, albeit still occasionally punctuated by its characteristic goofball humor. for the uninitiated who want to check this out, i would really recommend seeing season 1 first as the 2nd builds on it heavily. it's a show about gods among us, brought into existence through the wishes and dreams of humanity, given form, and named. i like how the show plays on the importance of names and remembrance. pretty similar concepts to the Sandman comics. Gakusen Toshi Asterisk and Rakudai Kishi no Cavalry - indeed they have a lot of similarities (battle school/competition format, likely OP protagonist with tsundere partner, etc.) but they are nuanced differently: the former is more mystery/conspiracy focused while the latter seems to be a vindication/validation story. RKNC strikes me as more promising story-wise (discounting the heavier ecchi elements) with it's Gattaca-like premise, but gee, Asterisk's animation is beautiful. Taimadou Gakuen 35 - this can probably be lumped with the two above, but differs because it's a squad story rather a pair's. minor diff, i know, but i i find the dynamic entertaining. i'm hoping the conspiracy angle pays off and not fall flat like in Machine-doll One Punch Man - hilarious! looking forward to every episode. Heavy Object - first arc was great. i hope the latest episode is not an indication that they will be lapsing into a monster-of-the-week formula. i'm enjoying the buddy vibe which is quite refreshing. given the abundance of harem animes, when was the last time you saw a show where two guys shared the limelight? i hope some models come out of this show. a 1/144 Baby Magnum would be great, but i'll be happy with 1/350. (1/700 would make for some nifty dioramas though) oh, and before i forget: Valkyrie Drive Mermaid FTW!

Such an amazing manga, but the anime adaptations have been only decent to somewhat good. No more Golden Age Arc enough with it! Blackswordsman arcs or go home.
