Who is it?

I would be ashamed to drive one of those cars. Not even kidding.

The girls from Girls Und Panzer. Go watch it if you like WW2 tanks. WITH MOE! No really, the anime is pretty cool, the girls are very likeable and the action scenes are top-notch. I never thought I would like it as much as I did.

Hell, if I had one of those cars I would gladly drive it; The Celica is an awesome car and the Hatsune one I posted before had one hell of a pimped out interior: The passenger's seat had all kinds of goodies, like a big-ass monitor, console, big-ass sound columns. I can't imagine how much it costed.

They are pretty much driving a "Haters gonna hate"

I would sell it and get a car that I have actual use for. And spend the rest on hookers and blow.

You crazy netherlanders and your drugs Well, when they have such an awesome car, I can guess they have a "normal" one too. Ofc they won't be able to get their blow, tho

Tbh, I wouldn't be able to use a car like that because I would be paranoid. Hell, imagine a scratch. A single scratch would ruin my day, week or month/s since those stickers aren't cheap

Haha, I don't go to hookers, nor do I smoke blow.

But yeah, my response to any of those"WIN A CAR" things is always, I'd sell it, get a cheap 2nd hand car and spend the rest on stuff I actually want/need.

I will call the Girls Und Panzer car a fail on the grounds that it isn't a Pz IV J

Oh. For those of you who like fanservice. Senran Kagura, lots of "boing". With ninjas!

Another update, Re: This week's rail wars... gak. Takayama is in up to his neck.

Gentlemen, it's been a singular pleasure serving with you all. To your ships, bosun, sound general quarters! All hands to battle stations.




Gak is about to get real people

So I'll admit this season of hamatora is rather strange, even more so than last season. Idk how ya'll who are watching it feel, but the show is still interesting enough for me to watch

So, Girls und Panzer... that's an interesting show, I'm on episode 10 now - yet another all-powerful student council, and schoolkids going to war - looks like a common trope in anime!

I'm enjoying the tank battles, but I tend to skip the crew bonding inbetween. Also, I really want a StuG !

Mhm, I'd say it's been good so far, last episode was a bit meh but otherwise ok.

Oh that latest one, the filler episode? Ya it was at least funny, and I wouldn't have minded the episode at all if I were watching the season all at once instead of week by week.

i remember that movie. Quite a silly story idea, but it was fun to watch as a kid.

The goofy thing about the General Quarters scene is the Marines running through the room with the anchor chains, there's not really anything forward, aft or to the sides of that room for them to be going to or towards.

On an American naval ship, a Marine security detail like that's battlestations are guarding the bridge, CIC, the magazine with the ship's nuclear weapons (if any are aboard) or supplementing the look outs and damage control teams. All of that is well aft of that room (and that room would be well forward of their berthings)

So this week's Sailor Moon was awesome~ It's easy to get excited when a new Sailor Scout is showing up, but the Crystal team has proven their chops doing a non "HEY! Look who it is! Episode". Aldnoah Zero was excellent this week, though it left me a bit confused. Lots going on there.

Hey guys, figured these didn't need their own thread, but I found some AMVs I figured I'd share;

SPOILER WARNINGS!

Gankutsuou, Carnival of Rust


Attack on Titan, Louder than Words


Gurren Lagann, Satellite


Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood, Le bien qui fait mal (My favorite of the bunch)


Soul Eater, Zydrate Anatomy

Ok so that attack on titan mix was incredible, like the song was made to be used in such a way. Kind of unusual pacing for a song otherwise.

Also, Gurren Lagen looks kind of awesome now, is it as awesome as the video makes it look, cause it looks pretty awesome?

Gurren Lagann is even more awesome than that awesome video.

FLCL - I didnt even realise that the girl was burning things down because she was weirdly trying to envoke the main kids older brother to come back from baseball camp.

I liked its catcher in the rye meets guitar-mecha-phantasm vibe.

Gurren Lagann is honestly 100x more awesomer than the AMV. It's kind of braindead though. If you've seen Kill La Kill, you know what to expect from Gurren Lagann, though not quite as crazy.

The soul eater halloween one to me is the perfect amv. been watching that one many times over the years

So I've figured out why Kamina is such a favorite character, despite most bombastic characters like him are so hated;



Edit: Also, if you still don't know if you should watch Gurren Lagann, let me put it to you this way.

Before I watched Gurren Lagann, I chased girls.

After I watched Gurren Lagann, girls chased me.

It's that good of a show, that even the viewer becomes more manly.

Do yourself a favor and watch it. GL is one of the Anime Gods!

Well, I have finished Paranoia Agent and holy crap, it has been too long since I finished watching an anime and I remained confused with what the heck happened. So much weird stuff happens but the thing is, it's all delicious and intriguing. I really understand where all the praise for this anime comes from. If you are in the mood for some "WTF?!" and an intriguing story, be sure to watch it.

And since the trip was long, I started watching "GOSICK". Right now, I have no idea what the major plot will be, but overall, it's about a duo solving crimes. Not bad, but not excellent so far, but the ED's music is one of the best I have heard in an anime.




Oh, and here's a pic of mah waifus:


Oarai is fething big

Tokyo Ghoul

Spoiler:

It all has to do with the first two episodes, in them we see Kamina being Kamina, but we also see him A) Protective of Simon, B) Break down at the sight of a dead guy, C) bawl his eyes out when he finds out that dead guy is his father. It gives him less of a "I have to be tough so people respect me!" type of vibe, but more of a "I have to be tough because I need to be tough." type of vibe. He's only so confident for two people; himself and Simon (And Yoko as the series goes on), not for the audience, and not for anyone else.

After I watched this series I became a better friend and a better lover (no joke). My improved confidence gave me the strength I needed to go balls deep on my degree and ace dat gak.

Life changing gak man.

Whelp, if this doesn't convince GrimDork to watch Gurren Lagann, I think nothing will.

It didn't have any life changing effects on me, I just consider it one of the best animes ever made. Every single character is fantastic. Kamina, who like Slarg said, should be hated because it's one of those very pain in the ass type of characters that make people *groan*, is nothing but loved and regarded as a true manly hero.

Hell, what other character looks like Kamina? I can't remember any easily. He was so ... unique.

I just find it so funny that a show with the plot literally being "Whats the next thing in the way? LET'S GO BLOW THAT MOFO UP!" and as bare bones as it is....

It has some of the best characterization in anime.You even see the secondary/third rate characters grow a bit by the end.

There really aren't "extras" in that anime. Everyone has a mission and a purporse, everyone grows, everyone is awesome. Damn it, I kinda want to be able to watch it all over again as if it was the first time again. Same with KLK.

Those shows were such a roller-coaster ride of awesome.
