He's proved that he isn't changing his spoiling ways. Most of the time he did it unintentionally, so even if he says he won't in the future, he just might do it again anyways.

Like I said, he was a landmine waiting to happen and now he ruined something for someone.

I say he be banned from this thread.


I sort of agree, I agree because he's been spoiling so frequently and doesn't seem to learn but I disagree because of what Devour said below.

I'd like to say give him a few more chances but there's a part of me that feels so bad for those who are spoiled. They will never enjoy the story to the maximum.

If he even took two seconds to think about what he was saying he wouldn't even have this problem. It pretty much results from mindless posting. I will personally infract it from now on even if this isn't my section, I absolutely despise people that spoil things for others intentionally or otherwise.
Hopefully that at least gives him some incentive to not be so flippant with his responses from now on.

Anyway,
how about that Plastic Memories amiright? I don't know if I'm too fond of this new subplot they're introducing, but maybe it'll add more tension to the series (which is what I assume is what they're intending)

Wait wasn't Devour kind of agreeing with me? I don't understand.

I was thinking of how to make this post not too off-topic, but I only watch Yuki-chan and Nisekoi this season (see how my tastes are top shelf?) and the only anime I've just recently finished is the first season of Chuunibyou and I'm pretty sure most of you are over that by now, so I decided to just post about how I only watch Yuki-chan and Nisekoi this season and how I've just recently finished Chuunibyou because that's still technically talking about anime.

Why are you such a casual smile
I'm joking of course, but I think you should check out plastic memories, it seems pretty much exactly up your alley

Also, I'm not watching Nisekoi because 1) Shaft needs to stop and 2) nothing happens in Nisekoi ever, I read the manga, don't get your hopes up for any actual plot resolution at any point

I'm actually downloading Plastic Memories, along with SNAFU, Ore Monogatari, and FSN UBW so that I can marathon them sometime in the future.

I'm really just watching Yuki-chan right now because I don't think it will be anything spectacular and I can live with having to wait for a week for new episodes, and I'm watching Nisekoi because I doubt that it will have any difference whether I marathon it or not.

I don't know literally anything about Ore Monogatari and Plastic Memories other than their titles and that they seem to have good things said about them thus far so I'll just save them for later. I plan to watch Fate Zero first so I can't watch FSN.

vague idea on how the series will end,
pretty similar to the first episode so i warn you
[spoiler=]something like they don't succeed [Tsukasa's Colleagues] in retrieving the giftia [Isla] from the grandma [Tsukasa] as she had become attached to the giftia[/spoiler]

I said that because of the word "unintentionally", since it's not on purpose he could learn to change.

That's a really good list you got there for this season. Might want to add "Owari no Seraph" there, it's basically like AoT vampire version.
Almost forgot about Shokugeki no Soma, the foodgasm there is real.

I actually did the opposite, FSN(first part) first before Fate Zero and I thoroughly enjoyed it probably because

I'll still always tell people to watch zero first. I don't honestly think you get a whole lot more out of either by watching it in any order, so it doesn't really matter I guess, but knowing about Kiritsugu and the origins of the major characters of stay night before going into it might be slightly more meaningful than just simply watching UBW and then watching zero for the backstory.

Guess you're right, the order really doesn't matter. But what really impressed me is the difference between the masters and servants, Kiritsugu and the other masters sure know how to get shit done, and the servants were really OP back then, gotta feel bad for lancer though.

Plastic Memories seems a tad bit overhyped, but I've only gotten like two episodes in, so we'll see if gets better.

Ore Monogatari is aight, but holy shit the female protagonist's voice is so high-pitched lol

While I wouldn't say it's amazing, it is nice
I haven't seen it being over hyped though, where is that on MAL or Hummingbird?

When I mean by tad bit overhyped, I don't mean like No Game No Life hyped, people are just saying that it's good and imo I haven't really seen anything that suggests that. Plastic Memories seems mediocre tbh.

Though at least it has some kind of consistent plot line whereas in Punch Line it's literally fuck all. It's hard to watch each episode cause it's kind of cringeworthy.

I'm not watching punchline man, I can't stomach it. I hope this doesn't become a trend
and I mean, mediocre really? When I say it's nice I mean that I wouldn't necessarily recommend it to people, but at the same time I wouldn't tell people not to watch it if they wanted to, since I kinda enjoy it. Are you saying it's straight up bad?

No, it's just that there really isn't anything good about it. There aren't enough things I don't like in order for me to classify it as bad. It's just that some of the characters just seem bland so far and the setting isn't exactly unique. There isn't anything about it that impresses me in the slightest, so mediocre is just the best way I can put it. But I also only watched two eps so I could be completely talking out of my ass right now.
Idk if this is a spoiler or not but whatevs.
[spoiler=]What bothers me the most is that there's supposedly some kind of romantic relationship between the MC and the android/cyborg/whatever, but the android seems to have a overly inane and childish personality. Not only that, she kind of looks like she's 12 years old or something. The fact that this relationship is going on with, what a 16 year old/15 year old, makes how seriously I'm going to take this series in question.

This was kinda similar with my problem with Shigatsu. At times I found it hard to take the material seriously because the story seemed overly melodramatic over what was essentially a middle-school relationship.[/spoiler]
