toradora is good and you would need to be some kind of monster not to find the last episode almost too cute

I want you to know that you got lucky with RWBY, Cake Attack. I was going to make you witness the majestic awfulness that is Cross Ange, but it seems Crunchyroll isn't Simulcasting it. Which is for the best. Don't watch it. Not even out of curiosity. Redcrimson posted:Kyousougiga. Too late Red, I'm making him suffer through RWBY.

I admire RWBY we all wanted to make an anime when we were 14, but they did it for real. What dreams of mine have I accomplished? I expected a bad show, but instead I got a long hard look at my own self. A+, would recommend. Anyway, as RWBY is anime in spirit, but not true anime - which much like Hanzo steel can only be forged in Japan - I'll watch Kyousousiga instead

Captain Invictus posted:Fuuuuuuck, I thought Dorohedoro had finished already, but apparently there's one volume not yet published, and I just hit chapter 127. I've not bought the series yet, but it's definitely on my list of "series to buy when I have the cash" because poo poo, Dorohedoro is fantastic. Quoting this from uh 3 months ago I guess but good news! I'm sure everyone knew about this already but I'm extremely relieved that this fantastic story will actually get an ending, eventually

I have a morbid curiosity and I'm really considering picking it up. I think I might just wait and drunkenly binge watch it once it ends.

Sunrise is acting like an annoying kid, constantly yelling "Look at me! Look at me!" Do NOT look at Sunrise's desperate attempt for attention. There's no need to watch the worst of the 3 Sunrise mecha shows of the season.

I'm gonna be contrarian here and say that Cross Ange is fascinatingly bad. It's gross, nonsensical, mean-spirited, and ridiculously loving tryhard. If someone told me that Cross Ange was an attempt by killer robot aliens to emulate human entertainment, I wouldn't even question it. If you want a show to lampoon for being awful in pretty much every conceivable way, Cross Ange is a solid contender.

Listen: If you want to drunk watch/binge a fanservice-heavy show, watch Highschool of the Dead. For all its faults, it was an honestly fun, dumb ride, especially back when I wasn't sick to death of zombies. If you want to see something somewhat exploitative but way more fun, watch Black Lagoon. The love that both the mangaka and Madhouse obviously have for old-school (and not-so old) action movies is palpable.

HotD is amazing and it's poo poo garbage that they haven't done another season yet. [IIRC it was done just as an ad for the manga, but then the manga went on a hiatus right after so I dunno] DamnGlitch fucked around with this message at 03:46 on Oct 28, 2014 |

Like a fully erect mans penis. WTF" And then it was gross. And then the next episode preview tried to be winking and self referential about it and it was incredibly insulting. CONTEXT: This made me feel grosser than the first Queens Blade episode.

Man, I don't think I've ever seen such an outright negative response about a show. I feel like I have to watch it. I will have to get back on the Build Fighters train first though. If it's anywhere as fun and endearing as the first season I recommend anyone wth even a passing liking of the Gundam franchise watch it.

Cross Ange, I'm not even sure what kind of target audience did they have in mind making this. You probably heard a lot of awful things that are in it and they are indeed present, yet it manages somehow to be, above all else, extremely boring. Not worth your time, period. Watch silly twin-tails sentai instead.

This is true, but at the same time you are denying everyone the wonders of the space vampire alien body snatching illuminati Cross Ange talk: both the first episode and the second episode have rape scenes. There are back to back rape episodes. Just one was enough to make everyone jump off the Valvrave train, and Cross Ange starts off with two.

Insurrectionist posted:Hmm yes, don't watch this lovely rape anime you morons, watch THIS lovely rape anime. Agreed. Not to let Valrave completely off the hook, but there is a world of difference between Cross Ange's handling of rape and Valraves. In the former it's used to punish a woman for being snotty, in the latter it's frightening and ties into themes of body horror and exploitation. It is justifiably infamous because it was unexpected and bizarre, not because it is frighteningly misogynistic in the way Cross Ange is. It creeps out enough people for no good reason that I don't usually recommend the show, but if someone is stupid enough to consider watching Cross Ange I think Valrave is fine for them.
