Talon did you happen to read my title xD and wanted to watch it, because I would have highly recommended it. It is one of my favorite animes but its the only one I'll be posting about that I know of unless someone talks about any other anime I know of. And just saying if you ever make a sig for mashiro or just sakurasou in general may I use it xD.

Talon 02-15-2014 05:47 PM

It's been in my to-watch list for a few months now, some dudes on Showdown were talking about it so I decided to stop putting it off

and please don't use my sigs unless I give you direct permission to, thanks

Kuroko no Basket season 2 why isn't this being watched at all by anyone? This show is so awesome and crazy good! Just look at these animations from ep18 spoiler alert

Idk why you'd ever put this anime on a to-watch list, its a good quality anime that even made me cry a bit, and I didn't say I was going to use your sigs without your permission I can restate it: "If you ever make a sig on the anime in general may I use it" Thats asking permission.

@usertitle

Kuroko no Basuke's actually getting pretty popular lately

I started about 2 months ago, but I'm up to date on the manga as well. Even the manga is able to capture the movement and emotion of a sports scene, it's pretty incredible.

if you're going to do it at least make sure I'm not using it at the time and you give me clear credit, thanks

You're obviously mixing OreImo with ImoChou, because there is only a little bit of ecchi in OreImo.

find it then cause I have no memory of this

Kuroko episode 45 is out. Thought the manga captured the scenes better, aside from the comedic ones. Still a pretty solid episode though.

Some of the scenes were missing imo never really caught how Alex and the gang walking into the stadium and never really captured how Alex was so surprised to see Midorima.

Talon 02-16-2014 09:39 AM

Finished 6 episodes each of Guilty Crown and Sakurasou... both pretty solid so far and keeping a nice steady pace without rushing anything (besides maybe the whole "Leave Sakurasou" goal)

GC spoiler:
Spoiler
in episode 5 when Inori tells Shu to "not get close to him" and that her love act was fake, that hit me heavily with the feels, but also made me glad in a way that there isn't ezpz love this early on

Tyler 02-16-2014 08:28 PM

Kind of lost interest with Samurai Flamenco after the whole King Torture scenario. So far it dropped down to an 8 on how I feel about it so far. I've been delaying it for so long to watch anymore episodes.

By episode 17 i feel that you dont even care if its realistic anymore and you just enjoy the ride because its so stupid its brilliant

Just started watching Sword Art Online, just finished the 2nd episode.

I must say, an an MMO addict, I feel like I can totally relate to it. Just the way the story ties in traditional MMO elements and the culture behind the games, it truly makes it feel close to home.

I hear people complain that the show sort of loses its touch later on. I'm a bit concerned about this, but hopefully it won't be too bad. I'll continue watching and see how it goes. Please, no spoilers!

The first three episodes were the best in my opinion.

GlazeyB 02-17-2014 03:31 AM

If you went with the hype before the series came out, I heard it's a little disappointing.

but I didn't and I started watching the series about when it finished so I never knew how much this series was anticipated and that's why people feel the way they do now, because it was overhyped.

It was decent, the ALO Arc was pretty bad compared to the SAO Arc though. I really enjoyed the series. Hopefully the second season will redeem it.

Skill 02-17-2014 03:33 AM

I'm 12 minutes into 4th and I still think its absolutely amazing.

On episode 7 now, I can start to see why people are criticizing the anime.

Spoiler

The first and 2nd episodes seem to provide a false hope that the anime focuses on the action genre. The first floor boss covered elements of tactical raids and was quite an in depth fight. The general emphasis on the flow of an MMO game, it certainly seems to set a path towards an action show, which in the west is the most appreciated type of anime. Action-oriented animes tend to be well received and the most popular outside of Japan.

After the first couple episodes, fights are implied and don't really contain much action. It seems to skip ahead floors, and fights are not as rich or significant as they were at the start. The anime switches to be more plot driven. The plot becomes implied and requires you to think, with many ongoing mysteries. Elements of romance are frequently introduced, which many were not looking for in a show that is supposed to capture the feeling of a MMORPG.

Because of the reduced emphasis on action and increased effort put into other aspects of the show such as romance or mysteries, it upset many people as it was not what they expected.




So far I personally don't mind the path the anime has taken, I personally like it. But I can certainly see why people became disappointed and upset with what happens, as it does not meet their expectations.

Will update as I continue watching. Still loving it, myself.

SAO's 1-12 was okay, even if the plot was fillery and rushed, it was at least eye candy and fun to watch. 13-24 though, just avoid them.

After you finish watch log horizon. Its far far better than SAO and actually feels like a true mmo
