This could end badly, like humans-dating-robots-and-depopulating-earth badly. Unless humans and anime characters can reproduce. Shocked

The last thing we need is another maternity ward, what with over 7 billion of us...

Loved the video though, signed up. Smile Can't wait for the next episodes.

Admittedly, I think this sort of concept has potential, but this felt kind of weird. I think just because she was nothing but a compendium of typical anime stereotypes and didn't seem to have anything more, I guess interesting?

I do like the cat, though, let's see if they do something creative with that next time...

Oh, this was terribly amusing. A great skewering of many stereotypes.

"I was attacked by a thirty tentacle laser octopus"

Terribly amusing I think sums it up nicely.

I wonder if it was intentional to make her look stereotypically Amerimanga-styled, or if the artist just happened to be amateurish enough that she looked like that. Either way, as a type of parody, and cheesy humor it works. They would have had to make it much less tongue-in-cheek if the girlfriend looked too authentic.

Sid paused waay too long in thought to decide whether Yuruki should dispatch his ex with her crystal sword.

I was wondering about the blood stains on her clothing. Is laser octopus blood red?

LoL that was hilarious, I especially loved the part when she gasped "for too long" apparently. Its a great parody and the next episode looks like fun.

Or the big reveal, as in Gall Force/Battlestar, is that present-day humans are themselves part anime.

well it is funny Anime smile, it played on the sterotypes Anime smile + sweatdrop but it is good to laugh at what you like sometimes Anime catgrin. At least it was less offensive then what College humor did a while back. Anime dazed

I was looking forward to checking more out Anime hyper, but apparently there is only one out so far Anime cry.
