Smooth Criminal Wrote:Kore wa Zombie desu ka? 01: Actually, that was nearly as good as Seto no Hanayome. A particularly unexpected gem of this season, given its premise. The male lead is enjoyable and manages to drive the series without being overpowered by the heroines. Speaking of the heroines, they've been alright so far. You guys are making me worry a bit with what you have to say about episode 2, but I'll hope for the best when I watch that.

Ha, hope I didn't scare you. Ep2 basically has another girl appear from thin air (literally) and I was remembering seeing a variety of females in the OP, so I had a panic attack. Just rewatched the OP and the additional females I spotted seemed minor, so don't freak. Kannagi has proven to me that I can tolerate well-done love triangles/rectangles. Though episode 2 had very little multi-directional interest to speak of.

Watched a lot today.

Going to carry on with Fractale, Zombie, Beelzebub and Level E (Men in Black: The Anime). Time allowing, Madoka Magica as well, but probably not on a week to week basis. Not going to make an effort to keep up with Gosick, just due to my own time constraints. It's alright so far.

I'm seriously excited for more Fractale.

Edit: Noticed I double posted. Whoops.

Who said anything about whining? :< LoL servers were down, so rather than do homework like I should have I went with the next best thing- 7 episodes of watching. I noticed you and Jorm are the only other ones who've mentioned Level E. Everyone else is missing out.

But they're competing, and if they theory of Homura trying to knock out competition before they come in (I don't believe this to actually be the case) is true, then there may be some huge penalty for not finding one on time. Also, Mami tried giving her one because she was gong to run out soon, or something like that. Homura didn't accept it, but I'd assume running out of seeds is a big deal.

Yes, they are. His gay looks alone make it funny in ways a-@

Level E 01-02:
That was f'ucking awesome. I wasn't sure if I wanted to watch this show but I'm really glad I did.

Level E 1-2: I also wasn't sure if I wanted to pick up this anime, since I recalled seeing a trailer where some real-life person turns into an alien and thought that was weird. However, so far it's been really interesting and funny.

Kimi Ni Todoke 2nd Season 1-2: I really loved the art in the first season and it seems it's only improved. I do feel as though the relationship between Sawako and Kazehaya has taken a step backward though, and I don't know how I feel about the new blonde guy in the show now. Chibi mode is still as cute and funny as ever.

Yeah, but they kinda have to take a step back from their progress last season to keep the story interesting.

Level E - 2 - This is more than likely my replacement for Arakawa, thats for sure.

Oniichan no Koto - 2 - Funny in so many ways. Just wish my dam MKV to AVI converters were faster, cause there was easily 1 part that needed to be an animated GIF.

Dragon Crisis - 2 - This one is taking an early lead as my favorite, but they mention him being a breaker, and a high level one at that (for what ever thats worth here) and they dont have him do anything dammit!

Babypenis - 2 - I will refer to Beelzebub as baby penis. And this episode was funny, specially when the three guys laugh XD

Babypenis - OVA - Fcking spoiled half/all of the show..... And lots of baby penis.

LOL John I thought you were watching a hentai or something at first when you said babypenis. Just talking about beelzebub though I see. I prefer the manga, though they're both not really all that great. I'm actually liking dragon crisis and gothic so far though.

Babypenis isnt all that bad, at least in anime form. In the 2 episodes, it hasnt hit a real dull spot, but given the context of the fighting and such, it shouldnt be hard to keep away from dull areas. The OVA was annoying, cause it literally retold parts of the first 2 episodes, and added in characters that havent even been mentioned. I highly suggest not touching the OVA until after the whole series maybe.

Star Driver - 15 - Leaving the island as a maiden = Groundhog Day.

Kore wa Zombie Desu Ka - 2 - Dawwww, Eu is so cute!

Rio - 3 - Wut. The least they could have done was explain who Rina was.

Black Lagoon Roberta's Blood Trail 3: OMG! I can't even begin to describe how much awesome was stuffed into this episode. Revy's veteran killer advice to Fabiola, finally seeing Sawyer chainsaw some people, that white-haired guy trying to act cool, Roberta's gunbelt and craziness. This is definitely turning into my favorite arc of the series.

Kore wa Zombie Desu Ka? 1-2: I wasn't expecting this show to be any good, but I was pleasantly surprised. I loved the introduction, with the Clannad/other anime-like faded colors depicting a boring school life of a monologuing high school boy, immediately contrasted when he got hit by a truck and revealed that he was a zombie.

Madoka Magica Ep 3 - Oh. My. God. Totally wasn't expecting that kind of development...

Was kinda expecting the witch to be a "formless" entity of sorts though, from the way it was "bouncing".
