Can someone recommend a dark anime with alot of death and mystery? I dislike OP main characters, but i also dislike super weak characters who rely on others all the time.

Have you seen Deadman Wonderland? I really liked it, even read the manga too.

I watched 9 episodes of Ao Haru Ride today and I think it's great so far. Although, there seems to be a lot of the story remaining with only a few episodes left.

twilit 12-21-2014 04:39 AM

Deadman Wonderland was a pretty mediocre anime, but had a good storyline. Didnt read manga, but it seems like they probably cut out crap tons to condense it [im guessing]

GGO was painfully slow and it felt to forced with some of the mental issues that Kirito had. The Rosario arcs where nothing special either to be honest and the whole raid idea of only 1 boss that was then beat stupidly quickly is ******ed.

I'd prefer the slowness over the cocaine fueled **** we got from the previous season, the anguish over laughing coffin was stupid.

I liked the Rosario arc because it took the focus away from Kirito. As for the raid boss thing, that's SAO for you.

Glazey, pls.

We all recognize SAO's reputation to produce terrible second arcs.

So don't compliment it too much.

5hift 12-22-2014 01:58 PM

But not nearly as bad as both second arcs.

I watched 5 episodes of Princess Jellyfish so far. It's alright. Little laughable moments here and there, but nothing that really makes me look forward to the next episode.

Good Qualities:
- Amazing Fight Scenes
- Strong Beginning

Bad Qualities:
- Multiple Time Skips
- Fillers (Lol detective Kirito on duty; lol cyber daughter)
- Lack luster development between Kirito and Asuna
- Basically no development in all other characters
- Plot Holes
- Making Asuna generic Tsundere
- Useless fanservice to make the series even less serious
- Misses the whole point of a MMO by focusing a solo player, instead of focusing on a group working together
- Overall poor writing

Tyler 12-22-2014 08:00 PM

A lot of the reviewers for SAO on MAL are giving asshole ratings. Go ahead and look. Most of the overall ratings given by them are below 5. They just have to express their frustration and hatred toward the anime and try to ruin the experience for others. SAO isn't that bad to be rated anything lower than a 5 (even a 6 in my opinion). People just hate it more because of how popular it is.

Nope i hate it because of its huge flaws that Keeluah said and their are way better anime's out their that do a better job (want an mmo anime? Log Horizon is better)

Kendama 12-22-2014 09:53 PM

Everything directly after ggo (phantom bullet arc) was absolute ****.

I found the Alfeim arc to be okay, actually. It was worse than both the phantom bullet and the original aincrad arc, but it sufficed and I enjoyed watching it.

SAO should had spent most of their episodes exploring aincrad and explaining more of what happened. It happened so quickly and it cant be on the same level as the new arcs.

First arc drama= Die in the game die in real life
Second arc drama= Save the girl, become her hero
Third arc drama= Hunt down a psychopathic killer and overcome past fears.
All the other new arcs= Hunt for special in-game items that kirito had spawned earlier in the anime at the ease of a simple voice command, and pretend like they even matter.

i watched episode one a awhile ago, and it was funny enough, but slice of life isn't really my thing.

the only thing i actually enjoyed from sao was the boss fights, there are so many things i disliked..

Good Shingeki no Bahamut ep. Animation was amazing as heck

GGO was the best of the 4 arcs. Rosario was comparable to gargling acid.

Dunno if anyones been watching Garo, but apparently its not finished? Its been pretty boring, so Im not going on through another season if its happening.

although, Im really happy that World Trigger is getting 50episodes. Ive been enjoying it.

problem with ggo is the whole arc ended right when it finished explaining the mechanics of the new game
