I can finally reply to shouts/reviews now. As my first reply on trakt 2.0, I'm here to say that you have shit taste. Hestia is the Bestia.
The storytelling and plot development is way off. It's the 6th episode and things are starting to get resolved.

@jasmohan The pacing has been horrific because the studio has been speeding through the source material and skipping so much shit in order to get to the huge plot twists that will be at the end of the season now. I really wish they slowed it down and let the anime breath and develop naturally so all these new character interactions would make sense...

@bkoto Lol. It's a joke calling all anime "Chinese cartoons". However, I do actually read a lot of Chinese web novels especially cultivation series. They've got some good series out there that are some of my favorites.
@sealy_boy And they named her "Jack". Pretty obvious true.
well guess who's gonna blast 'born to be brave' on repeat?

@sp1ti "SAO with Lolis". You missed the most important part.
I'm pretty worried for the rest of the series now. Animation quality was pretty crap, and I really don't like the new character designs.
Passione as an animation studio seem pretty poor in their output so far.

@maniacb They butchered my beautiful Asia-chan. How could they...
Wasn't too sure on this series at first but I think this was the episode that got me fully on board. The series as a whole is by no means amazing but the characters have been endearing and fun enough by this point to convince me to continue with this.
Obviously being a KyoAni show it still has great direction and animation quality. Not as flashy as some of their other shows but still nice to look at.

@maniacb So many amazing loli-demon/mythical creatures/angel anime this season. I don't know what is going on but I completely approve of this new trend.
Well, after watching the first episode of Riverdale, I don't quite know what to think of it all yet. Riverdale seems to be more heavily influenced by the CW's style turning this into more of a darker mystery driven show than I had been anticipating. We'll see how everything shakes out as the first episode already had its hands full just introducing the myriad of characters here. Honestly, I think that they might have overdone it trying to jam too many characters into the opening episode. I really liked what was done in the recent Archie comic reboot but perhaps this mystery-story based approach is better suited for TV vs the lighter affair of the comics.
All that I know is that we need... more Jughead!!

@redblazed Hey, I'm not complaining about Miss Grundy's new makeover if you know what I mean... ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Ah man, Trigger are nailing this. Such a fun series. Some downright goofy moments this episode that made me smile.

@maniacb I'm pretty sure that I get the @ notifications, although I have so few friends, I can't sure... :(
Hurray! Great to see more Gintama, even if it's only a couple of OVAs. And featuring Tsukuyo too? You spoil me!
loading replies
@maniacb That beginning scene featuring a loli Tsukuyo was almost too much for me ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Holy crap. Awesome first episode. This is definitely going to draw comparisons to Attack on Titan. Same studio, art style and "humanity is screwed" themes. But zombies and steampunk!
We even have Sawano Hiroyuki doing the soundtrack again.
The first episode really hit the ground running with the action and introduction to this world and the characters. Definitely can't wait to see more.

Ok. It might be badass. When I see lolis in yukatas chopping off a zombie's head with her bladed sandal, I give in :P
I have no hesitation in saying this has been the worst KyoAni show I have seen. People were harsh on Tamako Market but that was Citizen Kane compared to this. Thank god it's over now and we can look forward to the likes of Hibike S2 etc.

Yah. It was an amazing episode in Season 5. I can always use more of her and Ketsuno Ana in my life.
Wow. Gotta give props to Studio DEEN with the "boob physics" in this episode. Well done. Boing/10.
And how can this masterpiece only have 10 episodes this season?!?!?! That is a crime against humanity.

What in the name of God did I just watch?!?!?!
...He's my hero ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Damn. While the teacher was super obvious as the killer, I was hoping that the creators were throwing us off on purpose with a blatant red herring. Other than that flaw, this was a fantastic episode with a "mini-showdown" between Satoru and sensei. With only two more episodes to go, it's f'n game time.
loading replies
As I said, everything else about the show has been superb including the buildup to this moment. However, the teacher being the killer was a bit too obvious for even my tastes which is the only weakness that I'm getting from the show. I gotta find something to critique, right?

I think I'm on the verge of what could be called "hate watching" this series now. I find pretty much all of the characters insufferable and the plot is infuriatingly stupid. Seriously, I don't know what could be considered "good" for this series aside from the pandering fanservice, which I think is kind of wasted if you don't even like the characters in the first place!
loading replies
I see. Right when the kawaii loli shows up as a prominent character you just happen to commit to "hate watching" this series. Real convenient...
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Ugh, this episode sucked. I'm really not enjoying this series so far. The pseudo-science about memories in this one was way too unbelievable and badly handled. It's also one of those episodes that only thinks to start foreshadowing something just before it happens (e.g. Mai's flashback to when she was a kid, just before she happens to meet them again). Even KyoAni's normally above-average direction and visual prowess aren't enough to make this one engaging, it seems. If this was done by any run-of-the-mill studio nobody would bother watching it.
It doesn't help that thus far, none of the characters have been particularly likable or show any level of character depth. Really, the only thing this series has going for it is the fanservice and that's not really enough. One more dud episode and I think this one is dropped.

As long as KyoAni brings us a great adaptation of Koe no Katachi and Hibike Season 2 this year, I will tolerate this show.
KORRASAMI!!!! That was the dankest of endings. What a great series. While "The Legend of Korra" wasn't as consistently good as "Avatar", I was still very entertained and loved getting more of this world. Sequel to the sequel, please?

Meh. I liked the idea and the introduction with the first episode but this has moved at too fast of a pace. The characters don't seem flawed enough to make any kind of significant development later on and they're lovey-dovey already. It's already getting a little bit boring. I guess that I had my expectations set a bit too high for red-haired shoujo heroines after watching/reading Akatsuki no Yona.
loading replies
The actual show's pacing itself is fine. It's just the speed of the relationship development between Shirayuki and Zen seems to be way too fast and they've essentially gotten coupled up hard right from the start. I wanted to see a little bit more development or early struggles between the two. I have heard that the manga is fantastic and this is 2 seasons so I'll keep at it. Obviously, I should stop comparing it to my previous Yona-chan.
I'm loving this show so far. I like the concept and both MCs have grown on me. Nao had some very winning kawaii moments in this one. This was a very solid 2nd episode that portrayed more of what the show will be about for the rest of the season imo. I'm looking forward to seeing what the overarching story is going to be about.

The "Bro" life is tough. If a dumb (albeit awesome) bitch constantly carrying around a camera is blackmailing me, I'd act a little whiny and emo as well.
Cute first episode. Will keep watching since I loves me some shoujo :P

He's already become a "good" guy in this episode. I don't know what more that you can expect from him. I personally want him to remain a bad ass.
Not the best of first episodes to be honest. MC so far has been one of the most despicable and unlikable characters I've seen. Glad he got some comeuppance this episode but he has a LONG way to go before I have anything resembling a positive opinion of him. What an arse.

Dude?!?!?! I love the MC. Perhaps because he reminds me of myself a bit...
Honestly, I'm not feeling it. This "drama" just seems so contrived at this point that I've started to stop caring. I need my badass 8man back who'll trample all over people's feels. And where are my dank memes?

Utterly ridiculous decision for Sony to cancel this movie entirely. Mercia doesn't not negotiate with terrorists. A sad day for Hollywood and the movie industry in general. Hopefully this will see the light of day and we won't get bombed by North Korea.
