Okay, watched the 2nd episode of Kanojo ga Flag wo Oraretara and I'm pretty well hooked. A lot of interesting characters and good humor! I think this one is a keeper. |

Jojo's opening animation with Kill La Kill's second theme apparently go together very well: http://dai.ly/x1o4wrw |

Huh, the art style for JJBA is pretty different, it seems. Is that just for Stardust, or was the original series like that too? Or maybe that's just the OP... Also, finished Sisters Arc in Railgun S. I really liked it, and overall it was much better than the Index equivalent (it's like, 4 times as long or something, so you'd think it'd be). In fact, even the ending was improved upon, I think. Sure, an ending where Accelerator isn't defeated by the Imagine Breaker would've been cool, but at least they changed it from being a puny slap to the hand that broke Accelerator. I've heard that the remainder of the series isn't as good, but I'm pretty biased towards Railgun, so I guess we'll see... Sisters Arc Ending Rant A couple of days ago, I also watched Harmonie, which is one of the shows from the Anime Mirai 2014 project. It was actually pretty good, for what it is, but even with that in mind, I do think it ended kinda abruptly. Still, nice to watch if you have 20 minutes to kill. |

This is actually another reason I don't like it. I'm sure some people like the mystery behind it, but I personally don't (then again, the more complex a power is, the more I tend to love it). It's stated that it's not magic, nor an esper power, but it's never stated (afaik) in either the manga or anime what it actually is, so all you have to go on are fandom speculations. I mean, really, they give him this super OP bullshit power, but can't even explain the very basics of what it is. Wouldn't it have been that the Imagine Breaker is such a bullshit power which makes every fight the same boring thing, and the fact that Index herself is super annoying, chances are I would've found Index to be as good as Railgun. But as it is, I'd have to deal with stupid Index and the generic "shounen-fights" which always play out the exact same way. It's a shame, cuz the Index series has a lot more content than Railgun. Index also explores more of Accelerators life (although after the project), which Railgun doesn't (but hopefully the Accelerator manga gets adapted as well). |

I wouldn't say OP. Yeah, he can cancel out ESP and magic with his hand, but conventional weapons and even barehands are still quite effective against him (he did get his arm sliced clean off at one point). |

Fair point, but seeing how the setting they're in relies very little on conventional weapons, it's still a very powerful ability. Speaking of that scene, that is probably my most hated scene in all of Index. I mean, it's pretty cool and all, but it's just so dumb that Touma wins against the Ars Magna by being intimidating... Even more so because the alchemist could've easily given a kill command (like, he already did it once), and it'd be over, but NOOOOOOOOO, we gotta let the MC win somehow. |

Has anyone here watched Kaze no stigma? Reminds me of Avatar the way they all seem to work with the elements. |

Kaze no Stigma is pretty good. I liked it. It's not amazing, but it's decent enough. I haven't seen a whole lot of Avatar, but from what I know, it's sort of like that I guess, but instead of having different nations with each different element, it's about clans specialized in each element and all, and it's also set in our modern world. Though iirc there's no real quarrels between the clans. The action is alright, I've seen better, the show doesn't have the smoothest fight scenes ever, but they're not bad by any stretch of the imagination. Dude and girl are pretty strong too, so that's always nice. The romance is okay. It's the standard kind with a tsundere girl and a dude who doesn't give a shit about things. The comedy is funny enough. It's kinda the same as any other show with a tsundere for the most part, except dude doesn't get hit by girl all the time, so that's good. The plot is good, it's probably what i enjoyed the most... Just keep in mind, the author died before finishing it, so the anime doesn't have a concrete conclusion and some things are left unanswered, which is too bad because I liked it quite a bit. There isn't a whole lot of drama, except in the last few episodes, and even then, it's fairly mild. Nothing tear-jerking. Characters are pretty standard. Three MCs. Girl is a tsundere. Dude has a don't give a shit attitude. And he's got a little brother who's like the shy boy who learns stuff as the show goes on. The secondary characters are pretty good. I liked the little brother's friends, they were fun. Apparently I gave it an 8/10, so I probably liked it more than I remember. I thought I gave it a 7, then again I got a thing for tsundere, so I'm a bit biased when it comes to rating shows that have one >.> If you want to watch it, it's a decent show, so you can give it a try.

Avatar is a really good show. Just avoid the live adaptation, it is an abomination. |

Spoiler: click to toggle Avatar is still probably one of my top 10 shows. It's also the only show over 26 episodes that I've ever rewatched, so that's pretty uncommon for me. Korra honestly hasn't been as good this far, but it's still pretty good, and it has chance to redeem itself. Now that I think about it, maybe I should ask Sin to move the Korra thread into the anime forums (disregarding the entire anime vs not-anime thing)... Edited by savepoints, Apr 17 2014, 05:13 AM.
