I didn't care much for the Patlabor OVAs. I saw the movies first so I guess I was expecting more of that

Yea that's def a big difference in those presentations

I feel like I'm in a similar boat these days insomuch as it's mainly just the movies I can get passionate about.

Might have just been the Urusei Yatsura anime that did it in for me wrt the Patlabor OVA and especially the tv show insomuch as it tickles many similar Oshii comedy/character beats but better and with more interesting visuals to boot.

I've been watching Hanasaku Iroha. It's alright but what I would really like is a version without the author character

It's on the list, from what I know about it I think I'll enjoy it more. I also want to revisit the OVAs now that I know what to expect and see how I feel.

Yeah, everyone felt familiar but less interesting with the exception of Noa and the Captain. Even Shiggy Chiba wasn't as fun as he could have been.

I watched the Utena movie. It was good, I loved all the broken down bloody school imagery. It's badass that the birdcage garden decayedinto a bloody pile of crosses. Lots of awesome imagery in it, I'll have to watch it again soon.

So the new MC of FLCL 2-3's defining character trait is that she wears cat headphones.

Huh.

You'd think Haruko would've aged since 2000. And Naota's a teacher now?

They should have kept Hibiki's crazy mode, imo.

I'm watching this new Fate/* thing; it looks even sillier than usual.

Goddammit. I keep sliding back into old vices: Looking at left-handed guitars in Online Retailers. When will it end? When will my thirst for Southpaw guitars will grind itself into a halt, go into remission, and allow me to read stuff that actually benefits me?

If you ever need to sell it, don't be a stranger. Finding good lefty guitars is hard (and usually expensive).

Magic Nazis, of course. Wizards control Romania, eat baby souls.

If the protagonist keeps being this buff biker wizard, I'm sold.

Yeah, I'm on episode 10 and while he's not on screen too often I never like whenever he shows up. It's not a dealbreaker, though
