What Anime are you watching now?

as for now its only known that several people before touma had possesed the imagine breaker, but nothing bout the dragon(s), or the invisible thing so far.

Ep 20 Shana

Shana pls you're awesome but you've been moping around for the past few episodes and making Yuuji misunderstand + get pissed (worst type of drama) pls just confess already and happy ending

You're in for a ride if you're already complaining about this so early on

Shana too tsun.

[Eclipsed]

If she's just stubborn / unreasonable later on I can stomach that np

 

But BSODing for (several episodes, might I add) cuz you're not able to understand your feelings and just say them (and causing even more BSOD & drama because of it) is like pls 

It's vital for her character development as the emotionless Flame Haze learning how2feel, sure, but pls hurry up >.> though I get the feeling she'll only get the chance once the season's over (unless it carries over onto S2 oh gawd pls no)

 

Louise x Saito: 1

Shana x Yuuji: 0

Yes I'm gonna do this

[Nosebleed]

It's obvious Louise x Saito is the superior OTP even after season 3 of Shakugan no Shana.

 

Well Shana does realise her feelings later on, and you kind of understand why she didn't at first during season 2 when you hear about her past and stuff.

But it does come off as annoying most of the time since it just feels like she's being dense and pushing Yuuji away. Even for someone as ripe as me back then, I found her level of tsun a bit annoying.

 

Season 2 really fixes this issue though so you won't suffer too much at least.

 

And then season 3 comes to kick you in the testicles 

[Flutterz]

Watched the first episode of KimiUso, the artstyle is a bit jarring (I think it's the lips) but whatever, I'm just hoping this doesn't go like NHK where you're supposed to like the heroine that helps the protagonist but I end up hating her instead.

My friend wants to find an anime to watch. He is a quarter weeb who only likes action, horror, mecha and Sci-fi Anime. He doesn't want anything with romance or ecchi or fanservice of any kind. He is an ultra douchebag. Can you give some recommendations Plz?

Honestly.  Honestly. Good luck.  All anime nowadays use these as a subplot. ALL OF THEM.  There is not a single one which doesn't.  Tell you're douchebag friend that it doesn't exist unless it's actual shit.

Sounds like a perfectly good and tasteful person.

I'd say Legend of the Galactic Heroes, VOTOMS, Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex, Cowboy Bebop, Darker than Black and Black Lagoon, to give some good or very good ones.

 

edit: oh also, if he wants them to be """""recent""""", tell him to find another, more suited hobby, like golf.

Code Geass and FMA: Brotherhood. Well they aren't horror and Code Geass is the only mecha here. But they are great. Perhaps Fate/Zero or UBW?

I finished watching Kure-nai today, such a good show.

Code Geass (mecha), Fate/Zero (action), Steins;gate (sci-fi), Gyo (sci-fi, "horror"), and I was just about to say Cross Ange which is in my opinion really great mecha/action anime (even though most of people claim it's a bad show huh) but then I realized it has shitloads of fanservice but I still think it's worth watching. Kurenai is also a good show without any fanservice, it has some action in it too especially in the second half. And Kara no kyoukai maybe?

[Abyssal Monkey]

If you love romance genre, I think you would really love Spice and Wolf. It's so cute, and with an interesting story. 

I want to end this page even one post quicker because every time I see this post, I cry inside at how bad they butchered the second season of Spice and Wolf.

But still, all of those have a hint of a romantic subplot sans VOTOMS which I can't attest to having seen.  You just can't find a story without romance anymore, even if it's a hint of it.  If someone can find me a show that fits his description, I will give massive props.  The only one that I can think of off the top of my head is Fate/Zero if you don't include the GAR(ider).  Actually, I can't be sure it didn't have fanservice somewhere in it, because the entire thing was fanservice for me, so I might have overlooked something.

[Down]

If you really want to be anal about having no romance whatsoever, than I guess only GitS qualifies (VOTOMS actually has a romance sub-plot, I just remembered that it's fairly important in the latter half of the series).

 

But tbh considering we're talking about TV series, which for good reasons often have an emphasis on their characters (more so than say, a movie), it is only natural to expect some kind of romance to happen at some point or another. If that dude is for some reason repulsed at the idea of romance, than I can only reiterate my advice to look for another hobby.

[Turnip Sensei]

Someone killed our internet for a day so I had plenty of time to watch anime. I watched the entirety of Monogatari series second season + Hanamonogatari.

While I really like the series, it's sometimes pretty taxing to watch. The eccentric and philosophical conversations are something I enjoy, but it gets tiring in long sessions. Hanamonogatari was the worst offender, it had too much of serious talking and not enough silliness to balance it out. Long haired Araragi was pretty cool though.

 

Best ark was definitely Koimonogatari. I didn't like Kaiki in Nisemonogatari but this time he was much more interesting.  The banter between Kaiki and Senjougahara is absolutely delicious.

*Sniff* Idk there was just something about Shana accepting her duty as Flame Haze to die for the sake of the world and Yuuji deciding to die with her like the loyal dumbass that he is that was just so touching for me;

 

Normally you'd expect the typical wishy washy 'I won't let you die; there has to be another way!!!" or the dreaded 'Fk you, I'm dying while you're living!' but these two were just like 'This is what is going to happen, so we'll die together'. So fking beautiful!@#

Other misc. comments

• Excellent way to start off the trilogy. The world, lore, characters from every sides and factions are all fleshed out quite nicely.
• Villains were done extremely well; every one of them had a pretty interesting scheme and they were all memorable to me and didn't feel like fodder; Friagne with his creepy doll Marianne, the incest siblings Sorath & Tiriel, that one mad scientist guy, and the Bal Masque...
• I'll admit, while Shana was in annoy mode I was actually thinking about how great Yoshida-san was for Yuuji compared to Shana. The show was just relentless in that aspect- make Shana say the stupidest things ever while making Yoshida-san say the most brilliant things ever (ie. she's the first to say Yuuji is human). I hope S2 doesn't pull more of those, but it's kinda what needs to happen since Yoshida-san would have absolutely no chance against Shana otherwise huh >.>

I expect great things from S2. You guys already gave me enough warnings about S3 so I'll make sure to prep for that later~

One complaint: you didn't say a single thing about the amazing OP and ED the show had.  Also, I can't remember if Yoshida had the tuning ability in this arc or the next series... I think it was that final arc...?  Either way, Yoshida is meant to act as a foil for the human counterpart against Shana's flame haze upbringing, so she won't go away, ever, (maybe s3?)

 

Next season is more Yuuji-centric in my opinion, but it also focuses on all the side characters a bit more.  I'm glad you've enjoyed it so far.

 

DOOOMMMMIINOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

 

_{I mean seriously, nothing about Hishoku no Sora or Yoake Umarekuru Shoujo OP and ED?}

[Eclipsed]

Stop being so nitpicky you baka 

What OP and ED? >.>

 

I liked the usage of linking them with the beginning and endings of episodes but other than that I don't really pay attention to them

One of these days you will pay attention to the finer details like the soundtrack and appreciate them. *sigh*

[Eclipsed]

Oh don't worry; I've been grabbin' all OSTs OPs and EDs for all anime I've watched.

 

I'm not one to go crazy over music though so forgive me

BUT SHANA OPS ARE FUCKING AMAZING. Sorry, had to,get that out of my system. Glad you,liked the end of S1.

[Nosebleed]

I agree, if there's anything good about Shana, it's the OST.

The 3rd season's opening song was better than the 3rd season itself. I still listen to it from time to time.

[Kenshin_sama]

Yeah, it's a little bit of a heart stab that you couldn't appreciate the soundtrack as much as we did. Hell, watching the OP on youtube was what actually got me to try this anime out (similar case with K-on). Oh well, to each their own~ I'm glad you liked it so much. And hey, there's still a possible chance you'll like S3. Though I didn't really like it nearly as much as the prior 2, I have found a few oddballs that loved S3 for its plot. It didn't work for me due to the lack of character focus.

Okay fuck you man. I laughed so hard.

Maybe I should download the entirety of the series again.

I loved it back at 5th grade or something.

It's been what, 5 years?

Or 6. I don't really remember.

But I remember hyping for it back at 4th grade.

 

Also, I agree with OP and ED being great. They're really great.

SECOND SEASON'S OP IS ALSO GREAT. BOTH OF THEM.

 

Other that that, I started watching Saekano like two days ago.

I can't bring myself to finish it immediately because I'll definitely miss it, so I just watched until Episode 5.

It's great. It's really great. Megumi Kato's sitting with Kosaki up there in my best girl list.

Every one of them is great, really. I haven't seen the cousin soooo.

I like how they make fun of otaku-related things and how cliche most things are, considering that a lot of their tropes are also cliche lol.

 

Anyway, also watched Kimi ni Todoke S2 Episode 00. OH MY GOD KURUMIZAWA I LOVE YOU EVEN MORE NOW.

Hands-down, she's the person I can relate to the most. Her pain is just, ugh. It just goes through my heart and it hurts and I just ugh.

Needless to say, I can't hate her. In fact, I love her as a character. This is coming from a guy who can't hate shit, so to each their own.

It's not that Kurumi was the life of the show though. Sawako was definitely the girl giving life to the show and I definitely teared up a lot of times (maybe as many episodes as the series has), but I just can't ignore Kurumi, y'know?

 

Closing Remarks:

KATO IS GODLY

Friends, I apologize for my ignorance

I have listened to Shagukan no Shana's OP Hishoku no Sora and have seen the light
