Good... cause you almost made me cry... But seriously man, Harsh Crits are what get things shaken and done, so no problems with that. Just keep an open mind my man and we will all be happy. Peace. |

I understand where you're coming from, but that different between .3 and .4 DOES tell you something, since it's an average of several scores. While it's not a huge difference, it does reflect a difference in the points. I mean, when you take a test in school, what's the difference between getting an 83% and an another person getting 84% on a test? There's not really that much of a difference, but the teacher's not going to round up your scores to both 85%, because that wouldn't reflect the actual scores. If that makes sense. I'm guessing the group of reviewers is fairly large...although I could be wrong. |

Well, the 8.anything score isn't really needed. But a straight number score like 8/10 or 9/10 is still preferable to me then out of 4 stars. I like out of 5 or out of 10 the best.
Almost? Dang....I thought he did the trick, oh well. 
Open minds make the world an overly enjoyable place, just how I like it. |

I have a negative opinion on it as well so far. I wanted to like this, I really did. I like the concept, I think it has potential, but this show missed the mark in the first episode.
To start this thing has been "offically" announced for what, easily over a month and they come up with something that's 15 minutes long including an ad, 45 second long intro and a minute closing. I mean actually give the show some content and make it longer, throw in a second show to review/discuss or at least some more content. The whole debate thing was just poorly done. You had two people who almost didn't talk, two people that never stopped talking and two people that just made pointless comments when they felt like it. They didn't review the show or really debate it for that matter, they just pointed out obvious facts about the show or made side comments with no point. I mean they need to do a better job with that since it is the main part of the show. Also reviewing a Bang Zoom show just bothered me. I mean we got to hear them praise the dub and seeing as it's bang zoom that bothered me, not to mention I don't think it was anywhere near as good as they made it out to be. Then the fan reviews, that was probably the worst part. They should just get rid of those all together. The "system" to become one I think is poor, I'm sure there's quite a few who are reviewers and probably most are just fans who are going to praise any show they think "roxs!" and pan any show they think is dumb. Like the guy who gave it a 5 for animation and 2 for soundtrack. Please you can not like the show, but that's too much, what's the point of these fan reivews. Not to mention the average is everything combined and just averaged out. It should be an average score that's not an average of the other 4 scores. I personally think the fan reviews are going to be a waste. It I want to see a score like that I'll just go to Anime News Network or even AnimeNfo, at least they will have some method to take out all of the biased people that shouldn't be doing reviews in the first place. When it comes to anime reviews if I'm going to read them I want them to come from places that have built a reputation for it from quality writing and experience, not people who got on because Bang Zoom gives it name appeal. Lastly the site isn't even finished! How can so much of the site be "coming soon". It should of all been done by the time of launch. That's just a poor job by the people doing this. All that being said I'm going to try and check out the second one. Hopefully they can make it longer, the debate part gets the help it needs and though they won't drop the fan reviews maybe in some way those can be improved or else I won't be watching much longer. |

Well because it's from Anime TV, I'm asking here.
On this pic. Who's the person on the far left? I mean Naruto in middle, Cell to the right, Eva to the left, Sailor Pluto at far right and ? at far left. the only thing I can think of Yumichika Ayasegawa from Bleach  but I don't know.
(to madpierrot) I have to agree somewhat on the site. I mean I can understand somewhat on the "Made in Japan" and "Under Exposed" but the Forum should've been up before the show was aired. And remember some of this show was Bosch saying what the show is about, since they're probably going to take that out, the show will get a little more into the show they're talking about and get to it faster. And the fan reviews are a love it, hate it thing so there has to be someone who hates it to be on there. |

I think the guy on the far left is Jin from SamCham:

all the debate on the rating system is quite funny. in the end the more precise we can get with evaluating these animes the better. 8.3 and such. the a scale of 1-10 is fine but to devote ourselves to an anime for an entire episode it just seems right to go decimal on the bitch. ha ha ha as for you guys with heavy criticisms I am all for it! why not hear a harsh approach? just remember, based on many things which were suggested about taking the sugar out as someone said and taking away an open debate we could end up with some show that is mondane and drab like ebert and whoever he is with. (god bless siskels soul)
we do have a habit sometimes of talking over each other but I am confident that future episodes will lead to a greater respect for one another. so we will listen to eachother's thoughts to their completion then pound those ideas to the ground like kenshin in kill mode. oh ya last thing is the top five list was created through a top ten list all the cast wrote individually. it is not like we sat around together and decided. it was done through a third party to prevent an uprising. seriously though it means that bleach was on everyone's top ten list and it was the most consistent from the whole cast. personally I love bleach and am glad it was number one!!!! thanks for the feedback!!!!! NOW GO WATCH ANIME!!!! |

I pay for anime. =D
And yeah, I've just started watching Eva, so I'm excited to see the movies. I hope it comes out here in the US, and I hope they can get the original dub cast back, too (at least the main leads) |

Ooh, I was PWND with the typo, I have many typos throughout my posts, I like them, but don't do them on purpose. Why do people keep telling me that? I'll pay for anime when I get a job, I don't have one and have never had one so I kind of can't. I pay for anime that I watch here, but it's not really my money it's someone elses (like parents or friends) that have given me it or just bought if for me and that's rare (my dad despises everything I like, anime and video games even more), and I watch crap loads of fansubs, but when a show that's licensed comes here, I'll get it when I get a job.
Nope I guess I don't. I really can't wait for Anno's next project. |

After watching this, only one thought came to my mind:
"Was this really worth 15 minutes of my life?" To be fair, this show is aimed at a demo probably about 7-10 years younger than me, which accounts for the feeling that I had that it was oddly done (i.e., the camera skipping everywhere). The review segments weren't organized to me, though it was kind of funny to watch several of the reviewers try and outtalk the others. That review system: eh. Didn't really care for it, but found nothing so wrong that it just jumped out at me, minus the potential for bias from fan-based reviews. And to be honest, I only watched it for the Haruhi dub segments. From what there was to hear, I have to say Stephanie Sheh and Crispin Freeman were okay, Wendee Lee has some more work to do, and I really can't form an opinion on Michelle Ruff since Yuki had so few lines. Going back to my question at the start of this post, I'd say it was worth half the time I spent on it (the dub segments), and I'll watch the next episode and hope for improvements. Otherwise, I can't say I'll be watching the third episode. |
