Heroman 2: Fight scene was kinda lame, but there was some nice Bones animation going on; and that's all that really matters. Maybe things might get better in the next episode.
Durarara 13: The new opening is not replacing the blood boiling greatness of the prior opening and it's great Engrish- especially "ROAR OUT LOUDER" (real line's actually "Blow out louder", but I think "Roar" sounds cooler). As for the ending, better than TRUST ME TRUST ME TRUST ME. The new cop character is pretty cool; and the Slasher is pretty awesome. This episode made it feel like the series is starting all over again. It's like we've forgotten about the plot about Celty's head- especially after the way episode 12 ended, and then we seem to have the plot focusing on the Slasher now along with what the Dollars meeting caused. Things have really changed after the Dollars meeting six months before this half of the story starts- like the Yellow Scarves coming back, the police are trying to fight against Celty, rumors about the Dollars and the Slasher being connected, and the Slasher running around more. Also, them masking over the voices of the people on the Dollars website have been changed to be who it really is, and thought that was pretty nice- like you could hear Izaya's voice when Kanra spoke, Mikado's voice when Tanaka Tarou spoke, and Celty's voice for when Setton spoke; considering they all know each other by now. This seems like a nice place to restart the story and toss in new characters. I've also been wondering who the hell the Slasher is for a long time, and I was wondering if it was even Anri at some point because I thought she might be hiding something, but this episode seems to prove that wrong.
Alright, watching episode 2 of B Gata H Kei, Angel Beats episode 1-2, and Arakawa Under the Bridge today.
