Yeah man, it's great. It is also really fucking slow, the padding and stretching of scenes doesn't feel that much of a problem in action scenes because it does a great way of constructing a sense of utter chaos, carnage and panic but once the fighting stops the show really drags.

And GaoGaiGar did the drills a decade before them (This isn't a serious point, before you get angry. )

You see by that point I'd already started moving away from anime for the reasons I explained a page or so back. It'd been quite some time by that point since I sat down and wolfed down an anime with such gusto. But I was just hooked on TTGL and it kept my bum glued until the end.

Also, Shingeki 11 was a little better - still cripplingly slow but it was at least establishing things, rather than just being a single scene stretched out long beyond the point of reason. If there is something this series does well, it is the horrors of war, and the general terror and psychological damage it can bring. With so many heroes, in so many mediums, charging into battle with reckless abandon, you largely forget about the role of fear and how that can be the greatest antagonist that truly beats you in the end.

Plus, it puts a firm value on human life, constantly reminding us that everyone no matter the rank, has hopes, dreams, a name, a family and that their life is important. You can sometimes forget that amongst all the carnage, this isn't a series to glorify war, it damns it.

Plus, the movement control stuff is still awesome and Eren turning into a titan is EPIC.

watch 2 episodes of Star Driver and i am really linking it it has mecha design feel of Big o in there in some of the fights. i also like takuto i think that the red hairs guys name. but also it stating to be easyer to flush out the students that are part of the evil group.

I'm watching the Battle city arc in Yugioh, this is one of my favorite arcs in anime in general.

That actually inspired me to read my Yugioh mangas again.
Man, Seto is a complete monster in the early chapters...

Oh, Yami isn't a superb person, but he's not as bad as YGO abridged paints him.
Except for that one time he murdered a man for kidnapping Tea.
Or that other time he hospitalized a man for stealing his groups' spot at a school fair.
Or that other time he deafened a man for bullying a classmate.
Or that other time he blinded a man for beating up Joey.

But other than those occasions. He's not a total monster.

Kaiba's theme park was originally created solely to kill Yugi and his friends.
As in, literally, murder all of them. He even hired Leatherface (Joey killed him, though).
