Much better. Hell yes. Seito Kaichou isn't going to be messing with my shipping order any time soon, but she's fun.

Mecha fighting, action, story, and fan service. THIS is what we were all waiting for. And I will say this, Tatenashi's character will only get better from here (and she is already funny and badass). If the season keeps up like this last episode, then we are in for one hell of a ride.

Indeed. Although why do I sense a Netorare sub-plot going to happen with (not like it is going to happen since Ichika is oblivious to all the girls feelings kind of, even the that is kind of an understatement)?....

I actually had to look up what that meant. I don't think I will be getting jealous. Especially, if Ichika continues down his path of apparently not possessing a brain cell.

Yeah no NTR requires the protagonist to be IN a relationship. Ichika meanwhile has *counts* seven girls and one teacher throwing themselves at him. (Well okay, Maya has yet to /throw/ herself at the world's densest living being but you can tell she's only resisting because Chifuya would kill her. Ran's an active combatant, but has less of a shot as she isn't at the Academy yet. ) and is still somehow single... and clueless.

Also for the record I appreciate Tatenashi's naked apron gag on an... artistic level. Yeah. That's it! Artistic.

I thought it really was a naked apron until she went "Tada, it's a swimsuit.". Then I remembered all the jokes she plays on him in the LN. But, umm, yeah. Let's go with an artistic appreciation.

I figured it wouldn't be a real naked apron, it would have ended the series as Houki would have legtimately killed Ichika.

Unfortunately, not even real-naked-apron level rage would have helped Houki get by Tatenashi. She would have been swatted like a fly.

True. That still might not help Ichika, between a naked girl and pressue from being close range at a fight on that level of hatred he'd probably bleed out

Not anime related at all, but I think this might fit the bill if that did happen (or at least fit the bill kind of).

I forgot she would be naked. The nosebleed caused by flashes of heaven during the fight would probably be enough to kill him. Good call.

Ah, Deus Ex...I wish they made an anime out of that franchise.







Trans-humanism is a beautiful thing, isn't it?

Well, just saw the whole Attack on Titan in 2 days... don't get me wrong, it's damn good and I devoured the whole thing but I didn't feel it was as great as many people mentioned it was.

Finally managed to see thee first 3 episodes of attack on titan. It is pretty metal.

I wonder what a titan tastes like...

Considering how they made an Anime out of SiN, I really hope there is no Deus Ex Anime.

Besides, you have a Deus Ex anime already. It's called Ghost in the Shell

Not quite; they don't actually get to do something on the scale of Denton and Helios' plans to unite Humanity as one post-Human civilization.

I watched Kill la Kill ep2.

It's not getting better, is it?

A little better I thought, but not much yet.

It wasn't bad, but it kind of looks like it's made by 50-year old virgin males.

Started watching Infinite Stratos.

For a non-intense Anime, it's pretty much been perfect so far. (by non-intense I mean things watched for fun, not for brain busting).

It's a Harem anime comedy, but handled maturely. The fanservice is there, but not shoved in your face. The action has variety- it's not just people doing the exact same thing faster than the other guy, or people smirking at each other while they brag about who'll win. The story is intriguing- I'd like to know this 'purpose' the IS were made for...

I'm liking it.

Hallelujah another convert!

Hallelujah. Praise be to IS.

revisiting the old tenchi muyo series. didn't much care for tenchi in tokyo, though.

Tenchi in what? Never heard of it. There is no such series.

No. Such. Series.

Very true. Only one I never managed to finish.

And just saw episode 8 of IS. BwAHAHAHAHA!!

Can anyone recommend a good sci fi series?

preferably not with giant robots, sort of had my fill with giant robots as of late.

Military, Cyberpunk, mystery.

I've already seen Ghost in the Shell (favorite) and 009-1.

Have you seen Psycho-Pass yet?

Yes. If you want cyberpunk, you want Psychopass.

I dunno. the original BGC was good.

Ya I third the suggestion of Psycho-Pass!

Ghost in Shell is a great series, other old Sci Fi series include
Cowboy Bebop, Outlaw Star, Darker than Black, Samurai Seven.
Kind of fitting that description include Origin: Spirits of the Past, Jyu Oh Sei, Full Metal Alchemist, Rideback

+1 for original BGC.

Please...GiTS is unrivaled when it comes to cyberpunk.

When's the next season of attack on titan?

Just finished it.
