Mmm I didn't think the over-arching plot was that original at first, but it is actually pretty unique. Saying it is an anime abt humanity fighting for survival against aliens with giant robots doesn't really describe it correctly, at least so far. They have done a good job on adding in a lot of details to make the plot much more substantial than that. There actually hasn't been much action at all, almost all of the episodes have been dedicated to the characters and background. If it stays that way things could be promising. But ya the art style does leave a lot to be desired.

I don't think Jojo's Bizarre Adventure is gonna be my cup of tea.

In other news, I love the OP for Kindachi the Younger.

Jojo to me just looks like a product of the 80's, and thus falls in that same category of trash.

Good, good, hope it blows your mind as much as it blew mine. What a brutal anime.

Well, tomorrow it's back to the airplane for me, so in preparation I have "Durarara!!" to watch. I have heard and read many good things about this one and when there was a mention of a second season, I think everyone was pissing their pants in excitement. I'm curious to see if I find this as good as it's hyped.

It's true I have no idea if it was just a troll or not.

A pity, because although I have only watched 4 eps so far, I'm convinced, it deserves the hype Everything is so refreshing and awesome, including the characters which is always nice! Oh and this glorious scene, this is one heck of a rival for the Falcon Punch

Spoiler:


It was all kinds of awesome

So, I've watched Bakemonogatari and have started the second season of it, whatever monogatari it is. I really enjoyed the series and it was well worth watching so I hope season two is just as good.
I also watched My Mental Choices are Completely Interfering with my School Romantic Comedy which was recommended by a friend of mine and I'd say it's worth watching if you haven't seen it yet.

Oh and finally Black Bullet is really good so far, but I'm just annoyed that I can't run through the series in one go and have to wait for it! The guy with the mask (Hiruko is his name?) is pretty dang awesome. Just going to watch episode three right now.

Black Bullet seems to be advancing the story really fast. I mean this is the kind of situation most animes use for the big climax/finale, and they're only on the third episode.

BB is having this perfect blend of character development, plot and fights that's making me love the show. Oh, and having one AWESOME set of villains helps too. That pair shows up I go "WOOOOOO! HERE WE GO! AWESOME-TIME!"

About Durarara!!: THIS ANIME IS FANTASTIC! I'm actually worried I won't have anything to watch on my flight back because I want to devour this thing!!

Oh, and as big fan of monster-girls:

Spoiler:
Every time I see Shinra getting close to Celty, oh, how I melt with those scenes. Celty is so damn cool and cute, I hope they stay together until the end.

Hey guys, need some help:

I'm in need of some silly anime, with no plot, so I'm thinking "slice of life" anime and humor. I'm finally going back to the gym so I need some stuff I can watch, have fun while I'm using the god-awful boring treadmill, bike, etc, and don't care about the plot because I'm gonna watch it sporadically. I've already watched Hyakku, Non Non Biyori, Lucky Star and Azumanga Daioh. Do you guys know any others you recommend? I have been searching and found some names like The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, k-on, Minami-ke, Nichijou. Anyone recommends any of those ?

The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya has a very mind-screwy over-arching theme/plot that would be hard to follow if you're not paying attention, imo.

K-On! is probably a good choice. I am a huge fan of the series, manga, and their music, and as long as you're okay with the theme of "high school girls form a band, screw around more than practice", you're good.

I'd also recommend Yuru Yuri, which is kinda like the lesbian version of Seinfeld.

Or you could just rewatch Non Non Biyori .
