Watched the first ep of Mirai Nikki and freaking loved it. This type of show is right up my alley.

Watched Gundam: AGE...It was okay. Prob scan through the next couple of ep to see where it goes from there.

Watch that Bento show. To main character of show: ...Moe some lawns and/or get a job...ain't worth it the trouble getting your brain kicked in just for a cheap dinner. >.> Funny show though.

Fate Zero: Not interested in the past war. (skipped)

If the last few minutes are what the rest of the series will be like then the producers made a big mistake with the way that they sandbagged in the first 1.5 episodes. I might stick around for ep 3 to see if the improvements hold, but right now this is looking like a very low priority series for me.


Maybe they're sandbaggin' following the success of Madoka. Laughing

I don't even wanna know how ya do that....... Maybe design a face of Azusa like the grass patterns on baseball fields? That may not be much better than watching grass grow though. Laughing

That's exactly why they haven't.

If MB would be so kind as to simulcast it, they would, but they aren't, the jerks!

Different situation entirely. Madoka had at least shown indicators from the very beginning that it could be something special; the art design was extraordinary almost from the first shots, for instance, and there was always something vaguely creepy about Kyubey. (Its average preview grade was also considerably higher.) C3 had a mildly interesting premise but otherwise showed no hope.

I did not see it, but I thought that this is a little kids' show, which here, at ANN, always get "Decent", "So-So" or "Weak" marks. So it could be really terrible, but fun for little kids.

I did not it was terrible, but wasn't good either. And if you've already watched a reboot of the original Gundam (like Gundam Seed or Unicorn) you'll see it's the same story, so nothing new about this, except it looks more focused in the younger audience.

Then it is the same as with the new HxH, which is also obviously for a younger audience, comparing to original.

It was...okay I guess but I really didn't expect to be blown away in the first place.

sentai already has it announced for next year, so it will be available then. That's why cr's simulcast is limited to Ursa/Canada Only.

I know Sentai already has it, but I am not quite sure if I want to drop money on it or not. The BD rips will help me if I should give Sentai my money for this title or not.
