Anybody read Centaur no Nayami? It's a slice of life manga about monster people doing normal things taken to it's logical conclusion. Very cute and also has some obligatory social commentary.

No, I haven't. Has anybody here watched an anime called Gilgamesh?

Kara no Shoujo was okay.  It's probably the best "detective" VN I've read.  The sequel came out in February and there's that separate "prequel" game that isn't translated either though.

The art in the manga of SnK/AoT starts off pretty sketchy so it's possible the jaggedness would throw their appearances off.  I think they look pretty similar.  I find it pretty funny I read the manga literally a few weeks before the anime announcement, psychic powers.

EDIT:
EVA 3.0......... what the hell!?!?
Yeah Rebuild 3 was fucking silly.  I was pretty into it the entire time though, it should have been three times longer!

My girlfriend recommended Prism to me.

I have yet to stop reading it. I have final projects to do.

And I'm reading an adorable Yuri.

The only kind of Yuri I read is the adorable kind. Which is pretty much the only kind of Yuri I've ever seen. :P

Basically I'm saying all Yuri is adorable.

It's a shame it was so short. Have you any recommendations? I'm suddenly desiring more girls blushing at each other.

Only one I've read was "Girlfriends" by Milk Morinaga. That was a nice story, and I never read romance books.

Blushing or is there more to it?

Because Card Captor Sakura is somewhat known for having strong homosexual overtones while keeping it child friendly and not outright saying it.

Well the most recent one I read was a Persona 4, Rise/Naoto Yuri called The Spell of Love. It's cute, but also very short, although a sequel is apparently in the works.

Hm... more to it. It's a romance novel first and foremost, so it's all tastefully done. I found it to be quite believable and happy overall, and it's rather long as there's 5 volumes.

I'd recommend reading it, it's quite easy to find copies online through Google.

Meh, I've seen episodes 1-4 of Madoka and... so far, I'm actually not very impressed with where it's gone with its promise.  I think part of it is a sort of distaste for the 13-episode season length.  I can feel the constraints closing in on the story's expression, and it's giving me a bit too much of what I don't want for the inevitable deconstruction to seem worth it (I think I already know the big key spoiler and I think I might have guessed it without being told, anyway).  26-episodes is definitely my sweet spot.

I'm going to keep watching, but I'm not expecting anything in particular.  I guess most of it is just a particular amount of data per episode (I want either more questions or more answers!  I've finished 1/3 of the series, dammit!), and I really am not enjoying watching Madoka cry anymore.  The weeping heroine trope, while cute, is a trope of passivity and reactivity that I'm becoming bored by--I'm not saying it's a bad model, just not the one I prefer.

Oh well.  I'll see how it goes.

Can you give us your theory, in spoiler tags? I'd be interested to see how it matches up to the real thing.

Oh and don't real Glowcat's spoiler until you finish.
