I'm actually gonna watch it all at once after it's over. That seems to be the best way to consume this show, given that the episodes are like two minutes long. :P

I find my eyes are tired after each episode. Taking them all on at once would be too much.

Stories don't tell us monsters exist; we knew that already. They show us that monsters can be trademarked and milked for years.

I feel like Teekyuu reminds me of Hare Nochi Guu somehow. Probably because of the second season's opening. Which I now have stuck in my head for life.

Excellent excuse to buy the B Rs though. I think another blogger's documented the full changes, and my word, they're massive.

Actually that's excellent. Good stories air cheap, earn love, and then the BD sales justify proper aesthetic finish and offer genuine added value, without which buying disks is kinda pointless.

Genius!

[up][up] It's quite good and funny, the character dynamics and relationships really sell it over anything else.

The animation is fail at times though as you can see.

Maybe the BR's will be uploaded on the streaming sites by the time i get around to it. It does look cool. I finished Kill La Kill last week, kinda wanted some Yuri and was looking through our list on here, ended up with Revolutionary Girl Utena instead.

I like it so far. Trippy like many older anime (though it's not actually that old, from the 90s, but it has visual throwbacks that look older to me), neat music (especially with the subs telling you all the weird things they're singing about), but the main character is surprisingly lighthearted, as are most of the others. From what i had read about it, i had it pegged as being angstier.

I'm watching it too — I decided I was ready for it after understanding the first episode of Yurikuma Arashi. There is some angst at the point I just passed and there's probably a ton of symbolism I'll find out about once I'm done with the show, but otherwise it is pretty good.

There are two clips I use for fun when livetweeting this...and probably any other Ikuhara show. One for the lesbian moments (courtesy of Shin-chan's Gag Dub), and another for any obvious symbolism I pick up on (courtesy of Bad Movie Beatdown).tongue

(Posting this here because the thread in Yack Fest seems to be dead.)

Just finished Scryed. It was pretty fun. Some of the writing felt a bit cheap, but the characters were great and the animation was pretty smooth for a 2001 show. This is the kind of thing I'd feel comfortable recommending to anyone looking for a straightforward sci-fi action anime.

Next up is Mayoi Neko Overrun. Not expecting much from this, mostly I just don't want to spoil myself with good stuff for too long. :P That said, real life issues are going to prevent me from starting it for at least a few days yet.

scryed was a meme a long time ago, but nobody seems to remember that show anymore.

Mayoi Neko Overrun was screwed by the decision to spend over half the anime making shit up and switching directors every episode instead of just adapting the damn novels. They literally waste an episode on some completely unrelated mecha anime, with the cast of the series being repurposed as the cast for it.

In any event, was Saekano any good? I was gonna watch it when it aired, but episode 0 made me want to punch the writing staff. Yet it's getting a sequel anime.

Written by the same writer as White Album 2, though it has none of the charm nor the drama. In a word, it's pretty self-indulgent, knowingly playing up Light Novel tropes (the MC is a guy who's trying to force a normal, boring girl, into the most stereotypical LN "heroine"), and yet plays by the very same devices it's supposedly parodying.

It's all for naught if they keep being hypocritical like that. As I said, episode 0 really made me want to punch the writing staff.
