MORE HATE PLUS GOODNESS. 

Day 3 with *Mute.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

We start the day with a suicide note. NOOOOOOoooooooooo.......


The stupid button finally has some use.


Meet new old *Mute. (I'm using this because its cute)


Goodbye my AI waifu.


She bashes the dialogue wheel. A lot.


*Mute and pants.


Hello Awful Fucking Computer Girl.


I like New *Mute already.


My sources tells me its "Big Sister".


I checked. She really doesn't. I regret reading it again.


Despite her hesitation, she really doesn't. I'm fine reading it again.


Yeah I wonder about it too.


Sometimes critics have terrible  but necessary jobs.


Old *Mute has so much swag.


I've been rejected.


I'm cool right?


Friendzone. For now.


Context: *Mute was confident on her decision. Result: Me is sadder 


Them bitches love the wheel.


No comment.


More wheel bashing.






Nice marketing there New *Mute. I'll Take two!


LET US FIND CUTE AI GIRLS TOGETHER!


More wheel bashing but seriously. It sucks.

Back to serious stuff



So they uhhh hmmmm.




New *Mute takes the weight of both of her past selves. But she still don't want to be my wife.


Good enough for me.


Welcome aboard *Mute.

*Mute route is done! Next is some hateful days with *Hyun-ae.

[Knirisk]

Day 3 with *Mute.

Spoiler: Day 3 (click to show/hide)

I didn't really like that she committed suicide either. While it does seem like a valid decision, I liked that *Mute and *Hyun-ae were almost total opposites, but I guess there's no chance of reconciliation when you've got so many years of living your life according to that set of principles.

[Urist McDepravity]

Amane should hopefully be at least entertaining, I hope.

Its most depressing route of them all, I've had to take breaks each 30-40 minutes to finish Angelic Howl in one sitting, not something I've expected after all that happy comedy in common route and silly, but still happy Sacchi route.

Spoiler: Through ep. 18, Attack on Titan (click to show/hide)

I actually really like how everyone's reacting to Marco's death, and how it's going the rounds.  That's really realistic and cool.  I also think that the Special Ops Squad has a pretty nice variety of characters.  Hanzi is neat... there's really no one I dislike at this point.  I wish we got more "support conversations" about side topics, though I know that it would ruin the pacing =/


Actually, I found something this show does better than any other I've seen so far--it does a great job of creating dramatic tension through lack of technology.  Everyone's misunderstanding each other, data's getting around by word of mouth, things go poorly and people don't know they can't rely on each other anymore... this is actually really impressive, and I'm enjoying it a lot.

[Neonivek]

I cannot believe it.

Saiunkoku Monogatari

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

The anime I was watching actually not only copped out of the most tragic and inspiring death it had... But it also copped out of what was honestly shaping up to be a very serious and touching plot about someone only living because of their death and how he has to live knowing the feelings everyone has towards him. It was shaping up to be one of the most heart wrenching and complex stories about dealing with death and its consequences I ever seen.

AND it had to do it by rewriting the implied conditions of the death. It managed to make the "issue" a non-issue. "Ohh sorry, it turns out the sacrifice has a no whammies button that allows us both to live that I couldn't press because of no reason".

This wasn't a bad anime... but you know what... I give up.

Even the good ones. Even the good ones...

[shadenight123]

Neonivek...give me the title please?

and a hint to all: do insert the name of the animes you're watching when you speak about them...how am I supposed to increase my anime-library otherwise!?

[Neonivek]

Ok I edited and spoiled.

I just immediately stopped watching it right when that happened...

The only other thing I seen recently that came close (though practically SPACE AWAY) was Dangan-Ronpa where the finale was basically pasted together with take and glue to the extent where the game itself makes fun of the holes in the plot. Yet in that case it was just that I didn't find it funny.

Yet that was mildly disappointing and not a soul shattering explosion.

Ok I will be fair. It isn't the fact that they copped out of a storyline that killed me... It was essentially when and how they did it.

Hi I've watched maoyuu

You poor soul. You only know a pitiful fragment of something truly great.

If you're looking for something similar to Maoyuu, try Spice and Wolf. Both deal heavily in economics and understanding how society operates behind the scenes.

If you're looking for mecha like the Gundam series, try Code Geass, Gurren Lagann or Eureka Seven. You may even want to delve into Neon Genesis Evangelion, though the mecha genre in that is only skin deep (and only a facade). There's probably much better recommendations for the mecha genre, I've just not gotten into it really.

If you liked Sword Art Online... uhh... well... don't tell anyone. Critical opinion of it is that it had a great concept and completely ruined it. I believe Accel World was made by the same person (or group) behind Sword Art Online. You may also be interested in looking into the .Hack/ series.

For Hajime no Ippo... does Kenichi The Mightiest Disciple have an anime? If it does, you may like that. They aren't really that close, but they have similarities.

If you'd like to do some searching yourself, look up Gigguk's Anime Zone, GRArkada's Glass Reflections and Holden's... Holden Reviews on YouTube. I find that I generally agree with their reviews, or at least find their criticisms accurate. If you like them at all, you can also do a search for PodTaku, a Podcast between them and xDisturbedJeans as they talk about pretty much anything anime related. I didn't mention xDisturbedJeans's reviews because I've not actually seen any and thus can't vouch for her.

... twitch...

I have watched spice and wold and to those who said which gundams i like  its SEED and double OO.

An macross ive heard of but i just can't find a place to watch it. also wow what a lively thread 0.0

[Flying Dice]

The obvious place to start for mecha would probably be Gundam Wing, then, since you haven't seen it. But yeah, Code Geass would probably be another good series for you.

As for Macross, it's basically impossible to find a free stream of any of the series thanks to very active lawyers. I used to have a link to a site that hosted the original SDFM, but I don't know what happened to it. It's fairly difficult to find DVDs, too, even if you wanted to invest the money in it. IIRC it might be on Netflix, though, and you should be able to get a free trial for that. Oh, and what you're looking for is not Robotech.

[Aklyon]

Robotech was a fun rental game, aside from that I don't know much about it.

[GreatJustice]

I didn't like Gundam SEED very much. Not sure if it's the art style or the characters or what, but I really couldn't get into it. I loved 00 Gundam though, and Victory Gundam was probably one of my favourites, though apparently no one else liked Victory very much so maybe I'm not a good barometer.

[3man75]

TOO MANY GUNDAMS I CAN"T KEEP TRACK!

Their not bad although i have felt that some series are...too old for me to watch if you know what i mean.

Watched code gease and was throughly pleased with the ending. An damn how old is macross by the way?

[Haspen]

~25?

* Haspen pure guess.

[Vattic]

When it comes to mecha I got on well with the first two Patlabor films. They're an at least mildly humorous drama about a Tokyo police division who pilot mecha. When I watched it with some friends they complained that there was too much talking so your mileage may vary.

[Flying Dice]

~25?

* Haspen pure guess.

Macross Frontier is a more modern (and easier to find) alternative, and it still runs on the concept of transforming fighter planes fighting aliens with the power of J-pop.
