Yeah, fundamentally the show is pretty bad. But I'm still enjoying it more than G no Reconguista. I just feel like nobody takes anything seriously. The mech designs are really stupid looking too.

On another note, I managed to drop 4 shows to make my current total a nice round 15.

Akame 19:
Crazy Hanakana best Hanakana.

And we're going to anime original next week.

Fruit 6:
Huh, I would've thought box cutter girl would have higher value for like 2nd to last girl or something.

Wixoss 4-6:
Frak, there was a serious lack of aki-lucky! Well looks like I get a good amount next time, hopefully.

Cross Ange 6:
I... guess I was just hoping the story would progress. Guess not.

Honestly the only reason I watch this show is context for the preview narration.

My only guess is that they wanna work the VAs continuously for their pay, rather than have half work sequentially. Or they think that the audience would get bored only seeing half the cast for long stretched at a time.

What's a "regular WIXOSS battle"?
She had a good amount of time, and heavy levels of crazy in 6. I honestly thought she was going to stab Hitoe.
Glad to see Ruuko back in Madoka mode.

Was that a hamburger vending machine? The future is here.
I like this show in the same way I like Freezing; the inter-organizational rivalries and developments are more interesting than the aliens that come from god knows where. Though I'm sure Mr. Pilot is going to show up again soon and make some plot happen. Although I suppose it was kinda clever to have meido-chan show up when we were expecting "the guy" to be the surprise guest.

SAO2: It never made sense to me how sleeping in the game would actually matter. Also, Asuna has two characters? YOU CAN HAVE MORE THAN ONE CHARACTER?

I'm constantly reminded why this show is the best.
So you're saying it's deviating from the manga? With only 5 episodes left, that's worrisome. I'd prefer a continuation that sticks to the source.

Tekkaman Calamity wrote:Fruit 6:

Yeah I would have expected the daughter of the man who owns the school to be important enough to be the finale story. Also I find it strange that they would make a Dissociative Identity Disorder story two episodes, and this one in just one. This one seemed a bit more traumatic and required a more convoluted conclusion than "sad 4 kitten, put me in coffin for a few days".

Yeah, they actually spend a lot of time killing that priest dude instead of strangling him in the tunnels and actually lose a Night Raid doing so. The content for next week seems completely original, though it'll probably incorporate some official stuff.

So, I feel ashamed. Noto Mamiko was Arima's mother in Shigatsu Kimi Uso and I didn't notice. Then again, she's only had a handful of lines (sadly) and her character is presently dead, but I still should have caught it.

I need to know everything, What just happened, why'd it feel so fake. Like, the introduction of Shura and his reasoning of "being bored" and Esdeath being "sent off on a mission" felt like it was a filler, but then Lubbock happens. Are you talking about Susanoo's death? Can you point out what plot points each had it's own chapter? On the good side, if this all actually did happen more or less, does that mean we're not deterring from the manga in terms of ending?

If I have to see one more death by car annihilation be a main backstory for a character, I'm going to flip out.

Spoiler:

No. The manga is still going and it's currently at the execution yard they're moving at with the end of this ep. Considering we have 4 episodes to go, this will either painfully drag out or we deter heavily unless the author gave them a finish scenario that's vaguely in the ball park.

Thanks for the recap, I think when this is over I might have to read the manga from where it diverged. I don't read manga often, barely at all really.... but this is too good to let go like this.

It looks like she peaced out at the end there. I was concerned with the fact that Mine pretty much did the exact same spiel to beat Budou as she did for Ubiquitous, but this time felt a lot more rushed and less tense, I suppose this is the result of rushing to the end. I'm told that Susanoo dies the same way the "second" time in the manga as he went out this episode, so I'm glad they're trying to use what they can before they wrap it up. I would still prefer a fleshed out anime with additional seasons.

The I feel like the episode plots are all just as forced as this one, but it's set up that way so we can see these likable characters doing these entertaining antics. The constant cut-backs to the crew in the control room to see their reactions were pretty great.

Tekkaman Calamity wrote:Log 9:

DEEN you're not fooling anyone, you blew all your budget on that fight so you had to animate Shiroe basically standing and sitting still for 10 minutes talking about useless philosophical stuff to stay within the budget quota for the episode. Like seriously, everything in the "test realm" scene made zero sense.

I still feel bad for Log Horizon though, SAO this week had a pvp fight, a raid boss, and some after-party stuff that was all better animated than this week's LH. Although SAO is fun to watch, it's unfortunate that LH gets the short end of the stick when it's premise and overall story is much more interesting.

I wish the whole Akame/Kurome encounter had lasted longer. I actually would like to know more about their past and have seen that battle go on a little longer, and not go the way of the samurai.

So I'm going to guess that an H-scene occurred in that "hotel" room. How could the mom dying be a bad route?
