Fall 2008 Thread - Rie Kugimiya Overload

FUCK THE RIE. Also bumping this in hopes of getting more responses.

Guaranteed

Gundam 00 - Fuck yes, new Sunday timeslot. I am looking forward to seeing the Gundam Meisters get back together to wreck supreme amounts of Federation ass.

Hyakko - Like Manabi Straight, only not on crack this time (with added FALCON PUNCH instead). First episode seemed standard fare as far as Slice of Life/Comedies go, but it's got real potential.

Casshern Sins - RIP AND TEAR the anime. Fuck you, watch it. Robots are huge, that must mean they have huge guts.

Rosario Vampire Capu2 - More mindless fanservice? Check. More NANA MIZUKI? Sold.

Tenative

Clannad: After Story - My hate for Nagisa still burns like a thousand suns, and I'm not really interested in any more LOL KEY drama. It's a shame the rest of the cast is so superb though. I'll drop it the moment it goes into bullshit territory and then fly to Malaysia and kill Blah for trying to trick me again.

Still need to watch

Kemeko Deluxe - This show looks crazy as fuck and that is a good thing.

Kannagi, Akane-iro ni Somaru Saka, Index and Quartet are on my "to do" list for their first episodes.

Also the 13th (OVA) ep of Shigofumi came out two weeks back, go watch it you niggers.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

It's hard not to. Like I said, I think the entire supporting cast is amazing and it's generally fun to watch. I only had trouble with the last two or so episodes which I literally had to force myself to watch. If we get more of that I'm throwing in the towel.

Didn't people just get finished with another season of JC and TEH RIE both doing the same thing for the third time in a row with ZnT3? How are you not tired of that yet. I really want to like ToraDora, but she needs to stop pigeonholing herself. It's not like she can't do other character roles.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

In any event, To Aru Majutsu no Index does look to have some potential as long as it doesn't fall into the Shana trap of having a romance stuck on infinite loop, put in annoying characters (like Black Star from Soul Eater), or overstay its welcome by continuing forever.

Aw come on. Black Star isn't anywhere near as bad as most thought he'd be in the beginning. In fact, I've grown to like him.

Watching Ga-Rei-Zero now, what the fuck kind of horrible CG Dinosaur is this.

And if you're reading RC, you need to look up Tenka Seiha. Aroduc is always good for a million cynical laughs.

EDIT: WHAT

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

FFFFFFFFFF subs for Kemeko are out, going to watch in a few minutes here.

Macademi Wasshoi - Was very...weird. It's like Maburaho meets Zero no Tsukaima. The characters all look like they're five, which doesn't help. Interesting enough premise though, and any show that uses an over nine thousand joke is worth giving a three episode test.

Black Butler (Kuroshitsuji) was very weird also, but in a creepier kind of weird. I like Daisuke Ono as the main and having Emiri Katou (quickly becoming one of my favorite female VAs in her roles as Ran Isozaki and Blair) in there is a huge boost as far as voice talent goes. Jun Fukuyama is in there somewhere as well. What isn't he in? Anyways, demon butler, 12 year old master, board game, italian people in ovens. I enjoyed the first ep a lot.

Maybe if I'm not so distracted by other stuff I can watch Kemeko, Index and Akane-iro today sometime.

EDIT: Ahahaha god, Ga-Rei has a competitor for best first episode. Kemeko 01 is amazing.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I was speaking idiomatically.

Episode 2 is more of the same, in all aspects. SUBS WHERE.

I wonder if they're going to keep that shit up the entire series.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?
