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.
Has anyone watched Silver Fox? So far I'm enjoying it. A nice little show that never really goes over the top with itself. Actually interesting watching the character's interact with one another cause it's never really clear who wants what and why.

Makoto is the fifteenth generation heiress of a small shrine to the god Inari. Her father is still the shrine's priest, but Inari's divine messenger, Gintarou, has appeared to Makoto, marking her as true successor. Gintarou has the ability to see a short distance into the future and to find lost objects, but is unmotivated and foulmouthed. In spite of this, he becomes friends with Makoto, and together they help those who come to the shrine.
Its only two eps in thus far. It strikes that nice balance of not taking itself too seriously while not taking itself too lightly. It's a slice of life format from what I can tell but the opening sequence might suggest a shift to an arc.

Oh! Gingitsune right! Not sure why I wasn't putting two and two and two together there sorry! Yeah it's cute so far, I really like the anime, I hope it doesn't get too serious if it starts an arc.

I liked the first 2 as well. Very relaxing and cute so far. Just everyday life with a twist of fantasy.
Well, besides that, Kill la Kill IS fething AWESOME! I have no other way to put it.
It's so insane, action packed, original, stylish, pervert in so many different ways it's gloriously good! I haven't seen an anime with so much insanity since Excel Saga.
Even Ryuko's sui's "face" looks like a Gurren Lagann mech! I can't wait for more episodes of this show, this is too damn good!

I finished AoT too! I gotta say, its on of the best anime I've seen in a while. I really hope they continue it (the anime). I haven't looked at the manga yet though, I probably should.
I sooo want to see an Angry Marine duke it out with with a titan.
No wait, I got it - Warhound Titan vs 15 meter class titan. They are roughly the same size, right?
Oh, oh, even better. A Warboss.
Just imagine it: This big, gnarly looking warboss glances at a 15m titan and bellows at it "Oh so ya think ya ar' da biggest and da baddest git around eh'? Well guess wat...I'M DA ZOGGIN' BOSS YA ZOGGA!" before charging at it at full speed with an oversized battleaxe

A Warhound titan vs. a 15m class titan? That'd be a short fight. The Warhound would shred it before it even got near close combat range.
So I started watching the anime Blue Drop last night. The following is a no gak transcript of my reaction to the first episode. I'm not gonna spoiler it except for one small detail, I mean it's all generic and it's all an E1 reveal but you deserve that special moment of "wat" for yourselves should you choose to watch this.
WHOA
What the feth just happened!?
This anime just shifted from sad slice of life into full metal weirdness
So to sum up. Girl A saw Girl B as she was bring driven to her new school
they meet in the dorms
shake hands
Girl B gets a vision of the MYSTERIOUS TRAGEDY (tm) in her past. Then her eyes go blue and then tries to choke her out.
(Girl A's tragedy to be precise)
Spoiler:
There was also a flash of a giant battleship type thing
I have NO fething clue what's going on.
Seriously I'm like 11 episodes in and I have NO idea what's going on. This anime is half sad slice of life at a girl's school and half
Spoiler:
Sci Fi space battleship alien invasion action anime
and ALL OF IT is slathered in Yuri implications that are well past the point of subtext. It's really well done relationship wise which is quite shocking. Even if the
Spoiler:
aliens
are literally
Spoiler:
female only
which is a terrible trope no matter the
Spoiler:
gender
in question....
So.. yeah it's weird by 7/10 so far.

On another "new anime note"
Arpeggio of Blue Steel: this anime is weird as hell, In Short Alien tech takes the form of WW2 era naval ships, chase humans out of the sea (as in all shipping capacity, etc) then manifest pretty female avatars for themselves for... reasons. The Blue Steel is also known as the IS-401 (Imperial Submarine 401, a VERY VERY large WW2 era Japanese submarine) that is serving a human crew for... reasons as well. Apparently the avatar of one of the heavy cruisers trying to kill them becomes enamored with the human captain of the IS-401. Which is taking Tsundere to whole new levels if instead of slapping you the romance du jour can launch cruise missiles when you tick her off. Makes you wonder what she'd consider a grope though. Careful with that throttle!
Attempts at humor aside I'd recommend this one out of the current season. It's surprisingly light on fan service. (so far) Unless you're like me and warships duking it out counts as fan service.

Apeggio is a fun Manga that doesn't waste much of your time with overt silliness. Just wait to Haruna, Lady Battleship of the Bad Ass Overcoat, appears;
Honestly I'm fairly convinced half the reason this series exists is so the artist can draw lots of girls in cool outfits cause the character design in the series is awesome. It never strays to overtly into 'this girl is dressed like this purely to be sexy" but manages to have that sort of tastefulness to it that is both good looking and really cool (if that makes sense). The story isn't bad either and really manages to carry the mystery of "WTF is going on" in it.

I saw it coming and planed to watched it before it even arrived. I haven't watched the episode that came out today though. I have work to do and dakkadakka is just about as much time wasting as I can justify.
Over the last year, I've been on a Gundam binge, particularly the One Year War and Neo Zeon wars era. So that's:
Mobile Suit Gundam
War in the Pocket
Stardust Memory
08th MS Team
IGLOO
Zeta Gundam
ZZ Gundam
Char's Counterattack
Unicorn
Since the final episode of Unicorn doesn't come out until next year, I watched Death Note after remembering how my friends from college kept talking about how awesome it was. And it didn't disappoint.

Nah, I think that was perfectly executed. Just the right amount of WTF???
