Speaking of Killing ala Kill, my classmates dragged me into watching the 'latest' episode; I'm considering watching the entirety of it. (In which I remember that the guys who made TTGL also made this)

Also (legitimate) spoilers: [When Ryuko got owned by Puppeteer Loli, she's considerably more clothed in her underwear than in her Senketsu.]

I only watched the first episode of Kill la Kill and I can't tell if its fan-service or well-played comedy.


I'd say both.

Some studios do, but you're treating it like it's a bad thing.


No I'm not. What are you talking about?

Also what's the point of pointing out my mood, unless just to irritate me?


It says in the same sentence. I found it funny. I don't care about you, it just amused me.

hu....then, why do you love it? ^_^ Its just a quetion, cause maybe i7we can suggest you more of them ^_^ If it is cause of mecha...then I would also suggest you to watch
mobile suit Gundam seed
mobile suit Gundam seed destiny
mobile suit gundam 00
Fullmetal panic! (lol O_O)
valvrave the liberator
valvrave the liberator 2nd season

well, that would I suggest ^_^ If you want with a little bit more love story, then Gundam seed and gundam seed destiny should fit ^_^ my personal faved one of these are valvrave the liberator and Gundam 00....but actually also Gundam seed/seed destiny...ah, just watch them xD Oh and, Fullmetal panic i wouldnt really suggest it....kinda boring.

BUT if you want to watch a really great anime...THEN WATCH CODE GEASS! xD Thats one my faved one....also mecha.

Have fun.

I generally enjoyed the show, but I had a couple of problems with it mainly due to not liking the characters for most of the first half of the show, the animation cutting corners, and the fact that I personally don't find symbolism or religious references interesting. I did like how fucked up The End of Evangelion got and it really made the show feel whole.

I'm liking the rebuild movies too. 3.0 left me scratching my heat a bit and I didn't like how only Shinji and Kaworu got developed, but it setup everything for 4.0 to be amazing

This fucked up?

Edit: I just finished Danganronpa, and well, it met every one of my expectations, which means I didn't like it. I can see why people would like it, and I can definitely see why people would love the game, but at the end of the day my enjoyment suffered because I didn't fall under it's target audience, it's themes just weren't done in a way that I would enjoy.

The show was severely let down by it's characters. Each character having their own specialty was cool and all but the majority didn't develop any further than that leaving them feeling one dimensional and stiff. It also didn't help that I didn't think any of the characters were particularly 'real', this was probably due to prioritizing the story over developing the characters. Why show how a character is reacting to a certain event when we can move onto the investigation?! I'm guessing these problems stem from a whole game being condensed into 13 eps?
But it is a tad bit sad when characters being killed of doesn't emotionally effect you in anyway...

I found the character designs and art work to be very pretty, the eyes in-particular, and the executions were stylish and awesome. But I will not forgive the pink blood. Fuck that.

I didn't watch the show, but I personally liked the game. It feels satisfying when you are the person that figures out the puzzles. I did thing that personalities were simple, but not so much that I couldn't stand it. The game also had pink blood, but I didn't mind. It bothered me at first because of the obvious censorship, but it grew on me because it made the blood stand out more when it juxtaposed with the dull-colored backgrounds.

The blood other colors are better actually, if they do very gore in it, it wouldnt be a good game anyways.
