I'll probably kick at least $10 their way. Cause I played the demo, and Hel's heels it's fun! Combat could stand some tweaks, but over all I'm very impressed at the pre-alpha demo.

The full Kill La Kill op Sirius, on the artist's official channel! Hel's Heels that doesn't happen often!

You convinced me to play the demo now.

That Kill La Kill op is awesome. Cool move to put it out for the public.

Been watching Symphogear. I find it to be quite enjoyable actually.

Tomorrow, I watch the last episode of Non Non Biyori. It has made life seem brighter, and will be missed (until I end up re-watching it).
It was so good too.

Now I have to find another "slice of life" style anime to watch as a pick-me-up.

I've hardly seen any recently, which is surprising. Just getting by watching Patlabor early years OVA. Trying to get the full series sometime.

Watching Familiar of Zero, it's really awesome!

I've watched all 4 seasons. It is an awesome show.

And now y'all got me watching it .

I had no idea Gandalf was such a pervert.

Watch out for the mouse. It is just as bad...

Well, so is Saito. He loves the boobies.

So, I have been watching Log Horizon from the start and wow, just wow:



In other news, Sunrider is near 36k and My Little Dictator was successfully funded with an end result of £8k.

Sooner or later I'm gonna have to get to Log Horizon. My backlog grows...

I got in on the Sunrider Kickstarter. Glad they made it high enough for Faction Influence. I do hope they can juggle all that stuff properly, though.

I started off with Akira when I was younger then it was Ghost in the Shell (including the series). Now, I'm watching Archer. Just finished the Burt Reynolds episode. It has been decades since a show has made me laugh as much or as hard.

TDL: I'm not following you on the bars thing duder, PM me the answer?

Been watching Hoshizora e Kakaru Hashi (A Bridge to the Starry Skies) and it's pretty good, but lighter on deep character interaction then I wanted, but good all the same, better then it's genre mate Shuffle, also the first girl didn't win! Wtf eh?

It does have those weird multilayer female haircuts they stick in for a lot of protagonists... bangs, side pony tails, auxiliary bangs EVERYWHERE.How the hell does that work!?

Spoiler:

This "MMO" is now the first I ever saw to provide an explanation for the constant "Monster" respawns around the world which fits with the world's history and lore. The author's attention to detail is blowing my mind.

Not only that, look at this damn twist the sneaky bastards gave us this episode:



Ladies and Gentleman, do you remember what GREEN colored HP bars represent?

Heh, that made me smile.

Is that translation accurate? He's eating a sandwich.

Anyone catch SPACE DANDY last night on Adult Swim?

It's the spiritual successor to Cowboy Bebop, VERY similar to CB with the jazz music and gritty science fiction showcase. Even the characters are similar, almost like the director is just re-vamping the series for a new generation in high definition.

I have to say it's pretty funny too, great humor and a metric ton of sexuality. Lots of boobs, butt, boobs, and more boobs. Literally, there's a space station shaped like boobs with enormous lineups of ships waiting to get in to stare at breasts from all races in the galaxy.

Check it out people, you're gonna like it if you enjoyed Bebop (and you should have enjoyed Bebop). By the way, it's not as mature as Bebop in terms of story.

To both KalashnikovMarine and CthuluIsSpy:



Holy crap, so many new animes! Space Dandy is a given but there's so many others to take a look and see if they are worth it! Let the Winter Season begin!

Nice catch there TDL. Maybe a bit of foreshadowing of what is to come (besides the op).

Daaaaaaaamn I didn't catch that at all!

Anyone catch Nobunaga the Fool? Reminds me a lot of Escaflowne.

I wish I could say I figured it all out by myself, but I have to thanks the internet for that I did find the different HP bars very, very strange and I decided to research a bit and found this discussion where they mention how every Green HP bar so far represented a PotL.

Yeah, I understand what you mean, the "Fantasy" realm together with Sci-fi elements like Mechs remembered me of Escaflowne too, but at the same time this first episode scared me. It felt so rushed.

And c'mon, Jeanne KAGUYA d'Arc?

About the other animes, let me tell ya

Tonari no Seki-kun is a "short", the episode is only around 5 mns but let me tell ya, it's freakin' hilarious. 5 awesome minutes. 7, if you count the OP and ED and both are great to boot!

Noragami so far is the best of the bunch so far. Even better than Space Dandy. I laughed so hard with Yato, the voice actor is absolutely brilliant! It's stylish, fun, had good action, had a heart-warming moment, even the OP is fantastic.

Give it a try!

Quite liked Nobunari, Nobunaga The Fool was ok, I really enjoyed Nobunagun as well. This is looking to be a good season so far.

Anyone notice the abundance of titles containing 'Nobuna-_____' XD

With no research, and just from watching the first episode each of the two shows, they're both shows that are prominently using famous historical names/figures, and being made in japan, use Japan's Nobunaga as their main protagonist.

Just re-watched eden of the east and summer wars.

Great movies.

Spoiler:

Everytime they showed a GREEN HP Bar, it represented a NPC, hence, Rudy is a People of the Land... one of the guys that can die permanently... which explains the opening Re-watch the start of Ep. 11 to see what I mean: When the diplomatic envoy arrives, a lot of PotL bow before them and their UI show up. All the HP bars are green.

Isuzu is not only Blue, but has "Adventurer" as a class instead of "Bard".

And let's not forget this explains why Rudy had absolutely no idea how to work in a party to clear out a dungeon.

So yeah, unless someone messed up this can be one hell of a twist.

Holy crap, so many new animes! Space Dandy is a given but there's so many others to take a look and see if they are worth it! Let the Winter Season begin!

OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

Ya I really liked the backstory they came up with it. The show has had some up and downs for me overall, but I have enjoyed watching it overall. If that twist is true, then just wow!

Started watching Saki (after finishing getting caught up on Golden Time), and man they make mahjong look really fun and the shear amount of yuri is mind-boggling (there are parts were, I swear, the chicks are getting wet over each other).
Waiting for all the winter anime to premiere, and I'll check them out to see what I want to watch.

So I watched Nobunaga the Fool and... uh... guys I think the company that made it may have my 8th grade scratch pad and are using it for ideas, because Oda Nobunaga teaming up with Joan of Arc to conquer Not Earth with giant robots and space ships is just the kind of gak I'd have been writing around that age.

(Joan of Arc and Oda Nobunaga have always been some of my favorite historical personages)

Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood.
I enjoyed it too ^.^

I do like that in The Familiar of Zero, Saito earns his whippings by being an idiot, whereas generally the male protagonist is just an idiot.

Also, I looked into the history of the dub, and wow, that is a mess. I didn't even know there was one (Sentai to the rescue again, it seems.) Guess I better check it out.

...Louise is voiced by Mio and the Princess by Ritsu? Sold.

Yep, Saito always gets busted doing his stupid gak. Then the pain train comes rolling in. Good times.

I watched some of the premiers today. So far I really like

Space Dandy
Hamatora
Noragami

I tried out Nobunaga the fool. The art looks pretty cool, its got robots and samurai and gundams. I'm still iffy about it. Now to just wait for Magical Warfare and Z/X: Ignition
