Is it Girls On Film from Speed Grapher? And if it is, can I slap you for making that terrible, terrible pun?

Is it Girls On Film from Speed Grapher?

We have a winner!

For those who don't get the hint (Pyrite did): "durian" was a play on Duran Duran, the band that sung the song in question.

And Go ahead and slap me. I don't mind.

I will post the list of hints later.

...(I'll save it for the next time you break out a Running Gag.)

A little clarification on one minor point - the series therefore technically has 2 OPs - in this case, due to licensing issues.

Anyway, I'm interested in finding out what Pokenatic's idea for Option 1 was. He can have it if he feels like using it. If not, then maybe Tomu can start the next round - or we'll open it to the floor.

Me? Start the next round? Why, I don't know...

Hmmm... alright just a sec.

ALRIGHT I HAVE A SONG!

New Orleans.

What, too soon?

Tropes only round.

You know, I haven't actually won a round in months.

...Could you specify which part of your post the hint is?

All of it.

Except the "I havem't actually won a round in-" part. That's just mindless banter.

Is the song Konya wa Hurricane?

Does the anime involve a hurricane in any way?

Does the anime have a character called Katrina?

Eh, flygon: Tropes-Only round.

Okay, let's open with a wild guess.

Is it The Real Folk Blues?

Is the anime Science Fiction genre? Fantasy genre?

Why yes, the song IS Konya wa Hurricane.

Was it the New Orleans reference (combined with "Too soon?") that gave it away? Or the fact that two pages ago, I explicitly mentioned Bubblegum Crisis and then immediately asked someone to pass me the round? XD

...Well, that was pretty quick.

edited 12th Aug '11 7:53:58 AM by Pyrite

It was the former. Also, I sure hope that this is going down as a single-fact round. Pyrite's question shouldn't have been needed to be asked.

Now for something a bit different:

Round 296(?) absolutely FABULOUS

Variant rule 1: No questions relating to air dates, series length or the use of color during this round

Variant rule 2: I will answer each question in a different color. Why? I'm not telling you why!

Hint: The color is key.

Being that I hadn't answered any actual questions that fit the "Tropes Only" criteria, it is indeed a single-fact round.

I concur. Yours would definitely qualify. Also, given the number of times I've had my hints misinterpreted and I've misinterpreted other people's hints, I figured it couldn't hurt to check. (protip: using the standard format helps)

It was intended to be a gimmie round to begin with.

So, going back to this round,

Is it 3 Primary Colors?

Is it Colors?

Is it Color?

(Is it just me, or are these starting to sound a little tired?)

Damn it, ANN is still down.

Is it an OP?

edited 12th Aug '11 8:44:11 AM by Pokénatic

I'm still curious on how you managed to think of Noir using, in your own words, incorrect reasoning, Pyrite.

Is it Sci-fi? Slice of Life? Drama?

Oh, almost forgot, it's 295, not 296.

Kirika + Bouquet (pronounced really poorly).

(Honestly? I originally thought it was going to be My Neighbor Totoro, but then the answers started coming in. I'd shortlisted Noir as one of my options after comparing the Anime First and Seinen pages but ruled it out due to the whole Slice of Life bit.)

edited 12th Aug '11 8:49:07 AM by Pyrite

Your logic is as weird as always. Interesting play on words as always.

Still, sorry I fucked up on the list with the whole Slice of life thing. I think I'll try taking your advice and get more sleep when I'm playing.

So I'm becoming predictable in my unpredictability? Crap.

Is it 3 Primary Colors? No.

Is it Colors? No.

Is it Color? No.

Is it an OP? Yes
