The "What anime are you watching" thread

Brainchild · 02-04-2013, 01:17 AM

I just caught Sakurasou no Pet na Kanojo 14. Damn it, I thought I was going to drop this one, but that episode was wayyyyyyy to pretty for me to give up this show. Something about those darn Christmas episodes in romantic anime gets me every time. This entire show is kind of heartbreaking for an Aoyama fan like me though.

Just started the World God Only Knows, definitely one of the funniest anime comedies I've seen in a while.

I don't know why I'm still watching Vivirdred Operation, because it has the potential to be the worst anime I've seen in a while.

About to start Oreimo though, which I'm looking forward to. I watched a few episodes with the girlfriend but never finished it.

I've heard absolutely terrible things about that show so far. Are you planning on reviewing it?

Yep. Its the only reason I haven't dropped it after 4 episodes

Vividred Operation is that one show where the concepts are all awesome, I mean it's basically Tech-based magical girls mixed with super robot abilities....But the show itself is far from it.

The pacing is what kills it. Things move too fast, characters are introduced and developed in single episodes, some of the explained mechanics get regularly thrown out the window and because this is done by the same team that did Strike Witches...there are waaay too many butt shots. It's sad because the voice cast and animation, especially for the battle and transformation scenes, are great.

So I was catching up with my weeklies, and I suddenly feel Vividred is trying its hardest to get me to like it...

A for effort, but its still not working

Even though I have about 5 different things I need to watch, everything drops when new episodes of Initial D hit; Episodes 7 and 8.

Don't know if anyone's still following Robotics;Notes on here, but it really hit the fan in the last episode.

Also, Steins;Gate references FTW
