A friend forced me to watch Nichijou today, and I must say it was actually really funny. Definitely gonna watch more of it this weekend.

EDIT: Woopsies, forgot to put Cencoroll here. I thought Cencoroll was alright. It had its good moments, but feels quite incomplete being only one episode.

[EmphaticPikachu]

finally deciding to post my progress here again.

ryuugajou nanana no maizoukin 1-3/11
I've watching 3 episodes of this show, and this is the first one I was hyped for due to how insanely pretty Nanana is. I think I litterally fell in love with how she looked.

But besides that, the show is turning out fine. Not the best, but I'm damn well enjoying it. The character interactions are nice if a bit cliche and the scenes that show the creation of any of the traps look sexy as ****. *^*

Also Daruka partially trapped me. XD Not that I mind, traps are my love~

No Game No Life 3/?
I wasn't gonna watch this originally...seemed to heavy on the fan service in the PV but it wasn't any worse then many other shows, glad I checked it out.
I've watched 3 episodes of this... and I have to say that it wasn't as bad as I thought it was gonna be. Pretty funny, the cute speech was epic, etc etc etc. There are still mindgames (even if they we're what I was hoping for) and the art style is heavenly. </3

My favorite part though, was when I saw Sora freaking out after he realized he made a mistake in episode 3. I-I don't know what it was about that scene but I really liked it...It was nice to see him suffering through a possible loss. That was just so satisfying for some reason.

One Week friends 3/??
This was the second anime I got hyped for. And its still pretty good. The first and second episodes were amazing, the third one to but it didn't keep my attention as much...

Still I love almost every part of it. sjkdgjksdjkf sooo good and makes me feel so nice ;^;

Watched more Conan, Trigun, and Yu-Gi-Oh, and started watching Digimon. It totally seems like a Pokemon ripoff, but that aside, its not that bad.

EDIT: Almost forgot that I re-watched Pokemon Origins. Still the best Pokemon anime out there.

 

[Kutie Pie]

started watching Digimon. It totally seems like a Pokemon ripoff, but that aside, its not that bad.

The hell it is. I thought it was obvious by now that Digimon is not a ripoff of Pokémon. Both were in production at the same time, Pokémon just finished first. Besides, it's a well-known fact the Digimon anime is loads better than the Pokémon anime while the Pokémon games are loads better than the Digimon games.

Now which Digimon is this: Digimon Adventure, Zero Two, Tamers, Frontier, Savers, or any of the Xros Wars seasons (Fusion here in the States)?

[wingzx]

I'm loving spring season. So many good anime this season

Ping Pong the Animation: I had no idea i'd like this anime so much, i thought it was going to suck cause of the art and it being about ping pong but boy was i wrong, Such a great anime.

Akuma no Riddle: This one is good, I'm a sucker for battle Royal anime and this ones so far has entertained me. Just wondering how they will end it with only 13 episodes

Baby Steps Not my favorite sports anime this season but still enjoying it

Black Bullet: This one is pretty good so far i look forward to every episode i just hope it stays good.

Bokura wa Minna Kawaisou: This one is so dam good, It reminds me so much of Sakurasou, I love the animation and the cast of characters are so much fun, i just hope it starts to get more serious soon

Date A Live II: Not much to say but that its a sequel to a fun Harem

Fairy Tail (2014): Honestly im just watching it cause i read the manga and wanna see the fights animated.

Gochuumon wa Usagi Desu ka?: for the slice of life of the season, its not as good as i was expecting but still pretty calming

Gokukoku no Brynhildr: Now this one can either be really bad or pretty good depending how they go about it, so far im enjoying it tho

Haikyuu!!: This anime i was the most hyped about. I really loved what i read of the manga and now im loving the anime. I'm so glad it didn't let me down

Hitsugi no Chaika: Another LN boy meets girl action anime huh.. o wait theres demonic dogs and unicorns... ok im sold. In all honesty not a bad anime the MC is actually pretty good

Inugami-san to Nekoyama-san: Cute short with some yuri undertones

Isshuukan Friends.: This one is really good but i find myself scared to watch the next episode every time. Idk if the episode will turn out to be cute or have alot of suffering in it. So many emotions can come with just one episode depending on what happens.

Kanojo ga Flag wo Oraretara: Now this one i thought was just going to be a another fun shitty harem but its actually pretty funny and the cast of characters are great. Remind me alot of Noucome which i loved

Mahou Shoujo Taisen Gainex Magical girl short. nothing special

Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei: Tho its kinda starting off slow i hear its going to get great around episode 7, im liking it so far but till episode 7 i cant really judge how well its going to be, i know alot of people like the LN

Mangaka-san to Assistant-san to The Animation: Comedy of the season. This anime has me laughing every episode i look forward to this anime every week it just sucks that its only 13 minutes long

Mekakucity Actors: So apparently this was part of a huge hype train but i never knew about it till the anime aired. Its not shafts best work but i mean its not to bad

No Game No Life: The other anime i was hyped for. I read the premise and i just knew i was going to like it. Episode 3 pretty much sold it for me. That whole chess game was amazing.

Ryuugajou Nanana no Maizoukin: Indiana jones the anime? Its actually pretty dam good, MC is great and every episode has been better then the next and now with the plot kicking in im excited for more

Seikoku no Dragonar: Guilty pleasure of the season

Selector Infected WIXOSS: i'm literally only watching this to see the train wreck i find it so boring and its stupid to make a card game anime without even telling us the rules of the game, to me it looks like there just doing whatever and we have to accept what happens

Soredemo Sekai wa Utsukushii: didnt want to watch this at first but decide to give it a shot and i actually liked it, Don't watch many Shoujo's but this ones good

Soul Eater Not!: Ya i was kinda hoping i would like this one, but its just not the same as the original Soul Eater, the cast is no where near as good and i hate Maka's design

Digimon Adventure

Digimon was never really popular where I live, the big war between kids when I was smaller was the Pokemon v Yu-Gi-Oh war. So I really didn't know what to expect when starting to watch it, but I have to say that the 'mon talking did strike me as kind of weird, even though Meowth talks in Pokemon.

The Pokémon v. Digimon debate went on for a while until Yu-Gi-Oh! came in, and because both franchises had card games, there was a bit of that going on long enough the Digimon debate kinda went away for a bit, though it occasionally came back here and there. (I swear I remember someone doing a science fair project on the whole Pokémon v Digimon debate, I never got a good look at it, though.) Digimon never did get as popular as Pokémon, sadly, which is a shame.

Now are you watching it subbed or dubbed? Either way works, though the dub--of course--edited things out. The jokes aren't too bad, though, I honestly just think they were trying for the whole Samurai Pizza Cats schtick since it worked with them.

If the anime really is better, then yeah, it sucks that it never got as popular as Pokemon or Yu-Gi-Oh. I do recall having some of the Digimon trading cards a while back and having absolutely no clue how to play the game, and therefore just liked looking at the monsters on the cards.

Well, I have only seen 1 episode thus far, and that was dubbed. People have told me that the sub is better (and the subs in general are better), but on the flip side, the voice actor who voices Ty, is the same voice actor who voiced Joe Shimamura in Cyborg 009, and seeing as I loved that anime, it kind of got me hooked on the dub. So, to be honest, I do not know if I will continue to watch the series subbed or dubbed.

I have a small pack of the cards myself, lol. Never knew they existed until a friend gave them to me.

It's your choice. I personally do enjoy the dub, but you do miss out on quite a number of things that the original does so much better. (The music's also better subbed, even though the English opening is a nostalgic classic.) Though my brothers and I were lucky to have found the Filipino dub on YouTube years ago, so it was still in English XD. They didn't speak English too well at times, but they were still understandable, and everything was left intact.

Blue Exorcist - 8/25
D. Gray Man - 5/103
Gintama - 10/252
One Piece - 64/64
The Irresponsible Captain Tylor - 26/26 COMPLETE

Been pretty lazy with watching anime this week. At least I finished Captain Tylor, which was a good series.

On the topic of Gintama, when does it get serious? I don't mind the comedy but I think it goes well with some drama/action.

 

[Eternal Darkness]

On the topic of Gintama, when does it get serious? I don't mind the comedy but I think it goes well with some drama/action.

Around episode 60 is where Gintama hits its stride

First 30 are mainly introduction type things, next 30 are good, but Benizakura and after is where Gintama gets amazing

Not saying that the first 60 are bad, but there's a difference

Scrapped Princess may have taken a while to watch, but it was luckily easy to follow. So I did enjoy it even though a couple of times I was getting a little bored of it. I have to wonder what I would've thought of it if I had managed to watch it all the way as a teenager...

I know I've been saying this every week so far, but Is this Order a Rabbit? is really precious. And that Metal Gear Solid reference

And Nanana is getting better by the week

Ping Pong is amazing. That's quickly becoming one of my top shows this season, where I didn't expect it too

And Mushishi is so relaxing. People who aren't watching/haven't seen it should feel bad

 

[Zoe Trent]

The first episode was amazing. Of course, I'm probably really biased, considering I adore sci-fi, and this reminds me of Star Wars. And Star Wars is the best thing ever

When does it become good?

If it's because it's a slow start to the greater plotline and doesn't reach its full depth yet, I can somewhat understand that. Though the same applies to most other shows anyway.

If you dislike war and politics in general, then you're just out of luck.

Space battles aside, I don't think it's like Star Wars at all. It's more like War and Peace, or if you really want tv scifi equivalents, something like Babylon 5 or Star Trek: Deep Space Nine would be closer.

I swear Haruhi parodied a episode of it but I expected something more better due to all the praise.
