The kick starter episode for little witch academia made me salivate.
Shit's fucking amazing

Oh dude. More than anything I hope using kickstarter takes off in Japan. Anything that allows studios to have more creative freedom while also getting an idea of what their fan base is willing to support is unbelievably amazing. At the moment it might just be extending the length of a project, but in five years it could be used to completely fund OVAs or used to measure an audience's interest, lessening the risk of large funding, and bringing on more originals and less adaptions.
Damn, I need to take a cold shower.

Anime is more important than your studies. Get your priorities straight.

Your also in luck, it just finished airing and is one of the most marathon-able shows I've watched recently. While the action scenes are absolutely breath taking, I can't forgive the show for all the still frames it has to chuck in, it didn't work for Eva and it didn't work here... Also having up to 3 minutes of recap at the start of some of the eps is not cool.
Words cannot describe how much I dislike Eren. Mikasa's wasted on that fool.

In other news, Kamina has been knocked off my #1 manliest man spot, and replaced with Sakuragi from Rainbow.

he's kind of a self-righteous douchebag, but I don't think he's that much of a prick to be hated.

For some reason he just strikes a nerve for me, he had two traits: being a weak useless git, and as you said, being a self-righteous douche with an burning intensity that is only rivaled by the sun. 25 episodes and I only enjoyed him being on the screen once, and we all know what I'm talking about.
But really, your probably right, but it won't change how I feel.

Do you think "Hitman Reborns" is worth to watch?

I've heard of it, but I haven't seen it. It may be worth it, who knows?

IMO I actually like Eren because he might be an idiot but he is focused and his hatred is justified. Mikasa is more concerned with his safety rather than his ambitions but Eren actually has motive and a goal. By sheer dedication he made it to the 5th top spot. I can't really see how he's self righteous and his lack of talent is ironically humanizing. I see him basically as Rin with a lot more anger. If you want to see a really terrible main character, watch Chaos;Head.

Hitman Reborn is good, but not great. Also it starts off as mainly comedic/gag but in later arcs becomes serious and story driven. Psychopass is better imo, and more consistent,and made by the same author I think, but its pretty seinen its about crime and stuff.
