Well, Space Dandy was... dandy.

Strangely enough, it reminds me too much of how some of my dreams tend to get. I'm curious how this show turns out in the long run.

EDIT:
Well, the general zaniness of it, where the dreams are concerned.

Yeah the premiere comes on in two hours and I can't wait. Looks dope.

I've been reading Ito horror manga all day. That stuff is off the wall. Every single one is unique and super original! It's so nontraditional I honestly can't get enough of it.

[Sinistar]

First thing I read from Ito was "The Enigma of Amigara Fault".

This things takes cake on so many levels.

I read Gyo much later, good stuff again. Didn't read anything else from him, yet. One day.

But to all horror manga lovers I'd recommend Kazuo Umezu.
Well, honestly, I only read "Left Hand of God, Right Hand of the Devil", but if any other works of him are just half that awesome as this...

...because man, that manga is just insane.

[Avis-Mergulus]

Amigara Fault was a very rich nutrient source for my budding claustrophobia, let me tell you. As for his other manga, Hellstar Remina is terrifying on quite a few levels.

As inherently good as Junji Ito's work is, I may have to never read it again. I already have enough things routinely disturbing my sleeping ability, and I don't need to throw truly horrifying shit ontop of it.

Well the first episode of Nobunaga the Fool has caught my attention, and I will be keeping an eye on it in the future. Love the setting.

EDIT: And now I have checked out Nobunagun and it looks like I'll be keeping an eye on it as well. It seemed kinda generic at first but the last minute or so made it look like it has the potential to be pretty crazy awesome.

New anime season but so few actually catches my attention. Guess I'll go with the usual 3 episode rule. Still enjoying some shows from last season though (Such as the shameless Gunpla anime & Log Horizon).

Oh, and it's official now:

Episodic huh? Well, at least the Visual Novels will show more each of the large cast's (probably tear soaked) history. But seriously...just what could have traumatized TK?

When he went to the USA he realized it wasn't like he thought it was.

So, Nozoki Ana is over. It's been over for a while, but I guess I was too affected to remember that there was a "Final Chapter" written at the beginning of the last chapter when I was done with it.

I'm pretty sure I found out about Nozoki Ana here, but maybe I didn't since a search in the thread turned up nothing. *shrug* For those of you who don't know, it's a manga that's ecchi. Really ecchi. In fact, its plot revolves around ecchi. In a way, though, the ecchi isn't even really that important. What's important is the characters' feelings and their actions and reactions and the consequences. It's an emotional rollercoaster, basically, and along the way it plunges straight into srsbsns feelz territory.

But that ending.

Spoiler: Because even the most basic of general descriptions of the ending is kinda spoilery (click to show/hide)

The very last chapter is actually listed as "Omake". This means it's an extra. A bonus. Omakes might be canon, they might not be. But basically, the second to last chapter is what you'd describe as a "Bad End". The end you really, really, really didn't want to see happen, even if you knew it was a real possibility, because the characters are going to feel like shit and you're going to feel like shit. The "Good End", the one that picks up after that and shows you the way you wanting things to happen so not everything is a depressing hell? That's the Omake. Maybe it means Omake in the sense of Epilogue, since there is a time-skip involved and you do see how the characters' lives have changed. It is even a continuation from the last real chapter, so really, it should happen anyway. I can't stop this nagging feeling, though, of it really being like a "Pick an Ending. One is the intentional one, the other one is just a bonus." It shouldn't really matter, people pick how they want things to end all the time, but for Nozoki Ana, it's really unsettling to me.

Also upset because R+V Capu II, the version of Maou Maoyuu Yuusha I care about and Vinland Saga haven't updated recently.
Nevermind, I may just be looking in the wrong places.

Just finished watching Sword Art Online. Now I need to find english version of the light novels and read those, so I don't have to wait for any more of the anime to come out, if it ever does. SAO is rather interesting when you get to think about what is the difference between a person in VR and IRL, and if a darkened morality in VR leads to a change in the person IRL.

Be happy there is a confirmed third season!

The secret of Gunpla that I can see is that every character is meant to represent a different time period of the Gundam Series (from what I can see at least)

We have our own Char who uses Gundams that is a bit more realistic. We have that Samurai Gundam who harkens to the days of G-Gundam (And his Pilot reminds me of Jaden Smith). and a near alien like mech similar to the Turn-A-Gundam robots.

I do think the anime is sort of clearly a boy's club (What a coincidence that women get their own separate "doesn't really count" tournament and are all basically incompetent as a way to get female viewership for the anime) but I don't let it bother me. They haven't even established a worthwhile female character yet.

[Furtuka]

Edit: nevermind. Not gonna bother. just gonna mention you have your references mixed up

[Ultimuh]

I have come across an anime called Folktales From Japan.
Every episode has three different stories to tell, some with morals and others are simply folktales.
Yes it is implied that it's a kids show, but still.. Rather interesting to watch.
Altough you people who are looking for serious anime, will find this a bit too silly. Most of the time.

So Space Dandy is a thing that happened. The first episode's ending, I don't even. The only way this would be better is if they had Zap Brannigan doing his voice.
