Nosebleed Posted June 16, 2014 Author Posted June 16, 2014 Oh gawd, episode one of love live is even more love-liveish than season one, is this even possible. Also, if I hadn't been told NicoMaki was canon, I would be surprised at how suddenly they showed affection towards each other. Was there a scene when they weren't together? Season 2 has a lot more NicoMaki. I feel like Sunrise really understood their fans loved them together and put several scenes with them which is great. Why does everything in the flag anime end up revolving around the protagonist? It's going in ridiculous levels now. I was expecting a harem not some weird sci-fi stuff. This anime falls under the same flaws as Date A Live 2. Trying to be 2 things at once and then failing at both. Granted Date A Live was slightly better in the aspect but this one is just *facepalm*. Especially because for me most of the characters are just bland stereotypical arch types with no depth to them. Quote
Dark Ariel7 Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 Too bad there was no matsutaro this weekend. not that anyone cares but me... Quote
Nagisa_Fawkes Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 Dammit Sena-chan... could you be any cutter than that? I'll miss this show... Quote
Nosebleed Posted June 16, 2014 Author Posted June 16, 2014 Dammit Sena-chan... could you be any cutter than that? I'll miss this show... One more episode.. *sob* There's some specials coming up though. Ashisu in S mode always gets to me. I kind of wish they'd show her submitting the manga though. That part was great. Quote
Hanako Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 Hmph, implying they weren't full canon already. Blasphemy. In the previous episode they had a really adorable moment. In this one, Maki could have just said she didn't want u's without everyone but she specified Nico out of all of them. See the canon level? I also present to you the ship swans: Hanayo x Rin Nozomi x Eri Umi x Honoka Nico x Maki It's all here yuri sens activated Quote
Kaguya Posted June 16, 2014 Posted June 16, 2014 Decided to watch that new yugioh show for some nostalgia- seems like they feel the need to teach basic math to the kids while summoning now. Quote
Dark Ariel7 Posted June 18, 2014 Posted June 18, 2014 No Game No Life is epic as always. That said, I am glad I read the LN. They are this and so much more. Quote
Ceris Posted June 18, 2014 Posted June 18, 2014 That Love Live episode.. The feels.There's going to be a bunch of tears shed in 2 weeks. Mine included. Just thinking about this week's episode makes me tear up a little. It's K-On graduation all over again! Quote
Nosebleed Posted June 18, 2014 Author Posted June 18, 2014 No game No Life is hopefully building up to an epic conclusion. Izuna's transformation looks really cool. Though the FPS game was expected it was still pretty exciting overall. I can't wait to see how this ends. It's just sad that it has to end </3 There's going to be a bunch of tears shed in 2 weeks. Mine included. Just thinking about this week's episode makes me tear up a little. It's K-On graduation all over again! Right? Just the thought of Nico graduating makes my heart shatter. Quote

I went into this anime season having Love Live as my most anticipated and it definitely didn't disappoint.I actually fell behind on most things this season. Normally I keep up with everything, but out of the 15ish shows I'm watching, I'm only up to date on Love Live, Gochuumon wa Usagi Desu ka, Mekakucity Actors, 1 week behind on Black Bullet, then like 3 weeks behind on everything else. I guess you could say those are the ones that's completely kept my interest so far. I used to like Brynhildr but that dropped off, I hate NGNL (I know I'm in the minority) and I'm sick of the MC in Isshuukan Friends. Everything else isn't worth mentioning. Quote

Lol, I'm going to need to read NikoMaki doujins just so I can see my Niko again. Oh, and the first season OVA. @ Ceris: Yeah, I'll be going hardcore crybaby in the xbox live party ): ugh.. goodbye my Niko. Quote
Nosebleed Posted June 19, 2014 Author Posted June 19, 2014 Watching Gochuumon wa Usagi desu ka to warm up my soul after my final exam is the best <3 Quote
Ceris Posted June 19, 2014 Posted June 19, 2014 Nothing better than a moe anime after something stressful. Helps you relax~ Quote
Niko Posted June 19, 2014 Posted June 19, 2014 Just wrapped up "Buried Treasure" and gave it a 7/10. Nowhere near the best of the season, but overall a pretty decent anime. It seems like a second season is on the horizon judging from the ending. Quote
Guest Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 Ryuugajou Nanana no maizoukin a.k.a best show of the season is over ... WHY ;___________________; !!?? Hopefully there's a season 2, tell me there's a season 2 ! PLEASE ! It's the 5th decent shonen anime I've seen. Quote
Down Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 It's the 5th decent shonen anime I've seen. But it's not a shonen :/ It's not adapted from a manga. Just a regular adventure show. There's too few adventure anime those days. I need to try out this one. I haven't watched much this season, but I know I'd like to try one or two of those that finished, like NGNL and Nanana. Quote

Yes it's a shonen ^^" Shonen is a demographic (Beato was right) and adventure is a genre. And yes you should watch it. There's 1 really bad episode, otherwise it's particularily good in my opinion.

Down Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 Shonen is a demographic (Beato was right) and adventure is a genre. ...A demographic that applies to manga. Even if by extension we call shônen adaptations in anime "shônen", Nanana isn't adapted from a manga. And even if we stretched it and defined "shônen anime" by "anime targeting little boys" (something which isn't done in Japan), it still doesn't apply, since Nanana is a late night anime (therefore aimed at otaku) And yes you should watch it. There's 1 really bad episode, otherwise it's particularily good in my opinion. Will do. Quote
Guest Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 ...A demographic that applies to manga. Oh I didn't get the nuance. My bad >.> I'm learnin'~ I'm learnin'~ Quote
Nosebleed Posted June 20, 2014 Author Posted June 20, 2014 Deus Ex Machina.. Deus Ex Machina everywhere. Oh Akuma no Riddle, I really thought you'd do some other cliché. Guess old habits die hard. And of course in the end everyone lived happily ever after because screw all the drama and assassinations that happened right? It's like Kyoukai no Kanata's final minutes. *sigh* Well I was silly to try and expect something out of it. I shall now bury you deep in my memories so I never have to recall your name again. RIP. It was nice enduring your cliché and awfully poor writing, but we now have to part ways. I hope that I will never encounter such unfullfilling and average anime ever again. Akuma no Riddle is a 5/10 for me. It's just completely and utterly average, I can't say anything else about it. It's filled with cliché in every corner. I guess the art was decent, but that's about it. Quote
Niko Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 Watching Gochuumon wa Usagi desu ka to warm up my soul after my final exam is the best <3 By the way, who is your favorite character from this anime? Mine is Rize. Quote
Nosebleed Posted June 20, 2014 Author Posted June 20, 2014 By the way, who is your favorite character from this anime? Mine is Rize. Either Cocoa or Maya Quote
Nosebleed Posted June 21, 2014 Author Posted June 21, 2014 Steph is the comic relief girl. We should support her in her role of being the idiot girl that is used as a guinea pig in several experiments. Every great army had cannon fodder. Steph is the disposable being that will lead them to victory! Quote
Nosebleed Posted June 21, 2014 Author Posted June 21, 2014 How great would it be if the cannon foddder(Steph) is what causes them to win the game- assuming they win. Actually, I'm almost expecting something ridiculous like that to happen I wouldn't have it any other way in fact. Steph will rise against all odds one day. Quote
