Watched Jin Roh again. I forgot the ending was such a downer.
Spoiler:
(For those who don't know about it and don't want to watch the video and be spoiled, Jin Roh is about an alternate reality where Germany took over Japan after WW2, and antiterror operations are enforced by power-armoured cops with MG-42s. The animation is really great, and so is the story)
-> This is spoiler-free
EDIT : And the soundtrack. Holy gak the soundtrack. I'm drooling.

Jin-Roh was amazing, I loved the "nothing good happens" ending, plus they looked bad ass in that armor running around with MG-42's.

IRON WITHIN, IRON WITHOUT.
New Heavy Gear Log! Also...Grey Knights! The correct pronunciation is Imperial Guard and Stormtroopers, "Astra Militarum" and "Tempestus Scions" are something you'll find at Hogwarts.
Ya idk if I can get behind it. It was cool when I was like 7 but idk about now. I can't even watch it for nostalgia since the characters voices aren't in English
Almost plowed through the first third of Kuroko no Basket. It's strange. I started watching it thinking it would be something boring. I'm actually kind of enjoying it.
Also might be looking into Digimon Tri, since I got interested in it recently, but... ugh, the animation kind of bugs me a bit. Worst comes to worst, it's a nice excuse to try watching the entire Digimon series.

I always enjoy force feeding anime to my wife. She's been knitting a blanket and watching Cutthroat Kitchen on Netflix. Got sick of the horrible scripted lines, took her mouse, and started playing the first episode of Shokugeki no Souma.
Just finished GJ Club on Crunchyroll. It's a cute little 12 episode only guy in the club of do-nothings kinda show, and was very enjoyable and fun at being what it was.
Spoiler:
Had a really good ending, too, in my opinion, which you kinda expect from a high school anime, but was still nice.

Plot progression? In Berserk? Preposterous. Everyone knows Berserk is trapped in an infinity loop and the plot never moves forward, least it shatter the space time continuum

Damn, been so long since I watched Berserk I'm gonna have to recap just because there was some progression!
Self-proclaimed evil Cat-person. Dues Ex Felines
Cato Sicarius, after force feeding Captain Ventris a copy of the Codex Astartes for having the audacity to play Deathwatch, chokes to death on his own D-baggery after finding Calgar assembling his new Eldar army.
Oh jesus I don't think I've watched Berzerk since...oh god I was an undergrad, maybe a high schooler.
Wow.
On another note, One Punch Man, any thoughts? I've been tempted to check it out.

Wow, I stopped reading that years ago after years of waiting for a new chapter...

This is the manga I'm talking about, the anime just featured the "Golden Age Arc" which while containing lots of awesome stuff leaves out all.of the cool stuff Guts did after the Eclipse.
One Punch Man is by far the best anime this season.

One punch man: all of the yes. It's the best show of the season, probably year IMO. But then I also love the manga. It's hilarious and hands down the best animated show since space dandy.
Finished 7 deadly sins. It was more entertaining that I gave it credit for at first though...
Spoiler:
As expected, nobody with a name died. At all. Ever. The pig is now a direct analog to Coulson from the Avengers/Agents of Shield. He died to get the team riled but was allowed to come back for virtually un-explainable reasons. Now... are we gonna get a spin-off 7 deadly sins: Order of Scraps Disposal?
It did a lot of dumb things that shows of its type do, but it was moderately entertaining while doing so. So it gets a pass.
I was just gonna post here that I am really loving One Punch Man.
Sir Isaac Newton may be the deadliest son-of-a-bitch in space, but John von Neumann is the logistics officer that eats your problems and turns them into kit.
And dare I say... there is actual character development happening?
(keep in mind I have not read the manga. I have only watched the anime.)

So Clannad, the visual novel, has been released in English (on Steam for those interested). My twitter timeline has had a few people playing through it. I saw this mod and had myself a good chuckle.

Good thing I wasn't drinking anything when I saw that.
