I guess Overstock charges more for you because of shipping. Good to see it's in English, I guess you just ordered it and they'll ship it after it releases.

Wizard Barristers

Wizard Barristers takes place in the near future of 2018, where wizards and humans live side-by-side in Tokyo. While police continue to protect the rest of society, wizards are tried according to magical laws in special courts defended by wizard barristers. Cecile Sudo has just become the youngest wizard barrister at age 17, and begins work at the Butterfly Law Offices. However, unbeknownst to her, she has tremendous magical potential…

So far this series seems to be pretty interesting, a major part of the enjoyment is the great animation.

I love the animation and the story seems to be interesting from the few episodes that are out. Only thing I don't like is the character designs.

I'm so close to finishing Sankarea and Maid Sama. Maid Sama is soooooooo goood but I'm still attached to Toradora though... I dont know why :sarcastic:

I wish they made the series longer though. Why is that most animes only last one season? :'(:'(:'(:'(:'(

edit:

Maid Sama and Toradora are easily my favourites so far :D

I know that feel man, I watched it twice already. The OVA is just plain weird and not satisfying at all, and the side show thing is also weird. Also just making sure, you did watch what happened during/after the credits of the last episode, right?

ye, wtf. I'm still trying to make sense of the OVA episodes. I didn't know that the season actually finishes on ep12... I thought the OVA would continue off after Rea bites Chihiro.

Do you mean the episode with Babu talking? yep, I watched it. It's kinda hinting that there will be another season, don't you think? The manga series hasn't really finished so it's kinda hard to tell at the moment :\

edit;

oooo I get what you mean. I don't think Rea ate Chihiro completely though. Also, what the girl on the plane said doesn't apply to Babu :unsure:

Wait there's 2 seasons/25 episodes, I think you're missing half of it ROFL. maybe the website you're viewing it on doesn't have season 2?

http://www.waoanime.tv/toradora-episode-13/

This one has episodes 1-25

iChronic was talking about Sankarea
Skill is talking about Toradora, plus Toradora is one season, two cores.

Hs anyone else seen the new anime that came out this year with about 4-3 episodes so far called D-Frag, its hilarious.

Keeluah 01-24-2014 01:57 AM

Yeah D-Frag is one of the better series this season.

Marry me. Someone finally shows their feelings for D-Frag, please tell me your favorite scene. Mine is when he turned around and saw ( I forgot her name ) Earth attribute and just waited there a good minute and got punched.

Myst 01-24-2014 02:31 AM

D-frag is pretty good, i like the start the most.

If you like D-frag! you may like Hyouka

Oreki Houtarou is a minimalistic high school boy. One day, he joins the Classic Literature Club at his elder sister's request.

There he meets Chitanda Eru, Fukube Satoshi, and Ibara Mayaka. Chitanda is a calm beautiful girl but she turns into an embodiment of curiosity once she says, "I'm interested in it (Watashi, Kininarimasu)". Fukube is a smiling boy with a fantastic memory who calls himself a database. Ibara is a short girl and is strict with others and herself. She loves Fukube, but he always dodges her approaches.

They begin to investigate a case that occurred 45 years ago. Hints of the mystery are buried in an old collection of works of the former members of Classics Club. The collection is titled "Hyouka."
Some of the characters share the same spirit and wacky behaviour. However i think Hyouka is more funnier.

Keeluah 01-24-2014 03:07 AM

There isn't a whole lot similarities between D-Frag and Hyouka.
Hyouka goes along with a romance and mystery approach with some comedy reliefs, the main male character is also different with him being all lazy, but intelligent.
D-Frag is mainly comedy with the main character being a so called "delinquent", but is actually kind.

Still they are both very good series and I suggest you watch both.
My favorite moment in D-Frag would be when Roka Shibasaki said she was actually darkness type, made me laugh a lot.

Lol, man. Ye, I saw the scene in the credits. I'm still a bit disappointed though because they didn't really kiss or anything. It was sad to see Minori cry too :'(:'(:'(:'(

still my favourite anime though :D

Toradora is a good romcom, but hands down, Sakurasou is my favorite RomCom. No one can beat my Shiina!

I really like Pandora Hearts so far. Except a couple things make me suspicious that my ship will be killed. Just like in Bioshock Infinite... Other than that, has anyone heard of or is watching Nagi no Asukara? I plan to watch it, but I don't know if it's any good.

I saw the first episode but it just got on my nerves. Most irritating was the protagonist who was whiney and abusive.

But then the blatant dismissal of fluid mechanics was too much to handle for my suspension of disbelief since I have to deal with fluid mechanics all the time in my real life.

Pandora Hearts is better if you read the manga.
Nagi no Asukara has an annoying protagonist, but the art and animation for it is just beautiful.

He doesn't talk down on himself but always complains and whines about everyone else. He would be those characters that would yell at everyone else even when he's in the wrong and will easily jump to conclusions and quickly accuse people.

Blackjack. Blackjack is a story of a doctor who can cure anything but charges absurd fees! Unless you can tug at his heart strings a bit. Honestly a great anime, can be sad at some moments. Has a sequel called BlackJack 21 which closes things quite nicely.

Toaru Hikuushi e no Koiuta is the highlight series in the romance department so far in the Winter 2013 season, in my opinion. Even though Nisekoi is very good, but the development in this series is very good right now.

At first it gives you a feeling of just another series about a normal guy who trains to become one of the best and try to get a girl, while some jerk elite guy is trying to sabotage him and steal the girl away.

BUT that's not how it turns out to be at all, the series starts to really get going in the third episode when they start showing the main character's past and motives, then boom you are hit by the end of the fourth episode. So far this series is showing a lot of promise , so I'm hoping it won't screw up along the way for the rest of the season.

Btw, I found these interesting;

I agree it is better than nisekoi, since the way the characters are is different than the run of the mill Nisekoi characters.

Familiar of Zero is pretty cool. I'm on the last season :S.. I always get sad when I know that I'm close to finishing a season, so I just stop watching the last 3 episodes completely.

Itazura na Kiss is cool too. I quit on ep21, but I really liked it.

iChronic 02-02-2014 10:46 AM

k, hands down, The Familiar of Zero is THEEEEEEEEEEEE BESTTTTTTTTTTT anime EVER. It beats all of my favourite movies/tv shows/ books in all categories :drool::drool::drool::drool::drool::drool:

I started watching Dakara Boku wa, H ga Dekinai. I can't really give out a full review yet, but the colors are very pretty. The main character is a big perv though, he is such a tosser. btw, its weird how they have nude scenes. It's like porn but with cartoons.

I wish I had a job, lol. I really want to buy the manga series of the animes I watch.


edit:

Guyszzz, I just found out that this lady is also the voice actress who played Taiga in Tordora. No wonder why I really liked Louise in the Familiar of Zero :D She's so pretty too

Dakara Boku wa, H ga Dekinai is an okay series, nothing that really stands out for it. It's sorta like Highschool DxD, but that's all it really has.

My favorite Voice Actress is Ai Kayano, she plays the main heroine for my 3 most favorite series, Anohana (Menma), Sakurasou (Shiina Mashiro) and Guilty Crown (Inori Yuzuriha).

I really recommend Sakurasou no Pet na Kanojo. Based off all the series you've been talking about recently, you'd really like this RomCom.

I feel like it is. It's actually a really good anime. It has a decent amount of tragedy though. The only thing that made me not give it a 10 was the ending and you probably know why already.

Sariss 02-04-2014 03:55 AM

Damnit, you all got me interested in anime. I watched the first episode of SAO on Crunchyroll, it was interesting to say the least. But, really, should I start with SAO or Attack on Titan?

SAO is nothing compared to AoT. Both of them was very hyped up during their year. SAO being mosted hyped up in 2012 and AoT in 2013, but many people were disappointed on how SAO turned out to be. AoT on the other hand, was able to satisfy most people and turned out really good. Except don't watch AoT if you can't handle blood well.

Start with Attack on titans, though if you do your expectations may be too high for SAO.

Sariss 02-04-2014 05:15 AM

Hmm, since I've watched a few episodes of SAO, I'll finish it (atleast up to the faries) then I'll be surprised when I watch AoT.

Pazx 02-04-2014 05:56 AM

SAO would be an absolutely horrible introduction to anime. SNK is overrated, but exceptional in comparison.
