Moemoe is now just moe.

I'm not a particular fan of the second new kouhai club member. Even with her tragic "backstory" the needless cynicism and pessimism seems quite out of place with the rest of the show.

>>34239
I think it's really cute to see her warm up and start to loosen up. Like in the newest episode when she suggested making the TeruTeru-Bozu and got really into it.

I'm going to miss them..

The one i downloaded back when i saw it included the original jap track and legit english subs.
It wasnt good.Its true though that they couldnt market easily shows other than school adventures/space operas/action-adventures and most of us had to find the good series later on when internet came along.
But i dont see why they would care about being able to market it.
In europe there were numerous channels that bought the cheapest and lowest budget series from Japan, gave them horrible localizations and broadcasted them en mass.Its a matter of economics really.The fact that they ignored other more serious series has to do with the fact that they were targeted only at kids as "jap cartoons" thats why the adult ovas never made it here.And to a great degree this is still the case.Hence the self-censor of most series that are being imported in the west.Not to mention general censorship in all jap media intended for the wes hey are still considered to be targeted at younger audiences and only them.

>>34230
Yeah I saw the original version without a single clue the dub was famous, and I actually kinda liked it.

>>34232
I saw a lot of old OVAs that I thoroughly enjoyed only to find western anime journalists or dubbing companies made everyone hate it.

>>34232
I, too, enjoyed it to some extent. The OP is now nostalgic.

>>33028
Simple, this is how.

Wow, thats was a really sugoi punch.

>>33054
That it is... only one punch!

>>33028
the latest ova might explain that to you

Don't suppose you've ever considered precure? or is that a bit too long?

>>34120
I never really could get into it, I did try.

>>34114
Does Nanoha or Yuuki Yuuna sound like what you're looking for in terms of seriousness?

Watch Card Captor Sakura if you haven't already.
It's more serious than the shows you listed but it's one of the best magical girl shows out there.

Also, it's not 100% Mahou Shoujo but, you'd probably like Magical Pokaan.

Like most adaptations of ecchi/porn, it mostly sucks. Animation too budget to be hot or adapt the manga style. Also censored to hell so there's basically no point to watching the tv version. Only good part was the spats shot of the futa loli angel.

As a side note, it's strange anyone's even picked this series up at all. En press did the translation of the manga too, which struck me as odd. Like who looked at this series and said "yeah this looks like a solid investment"? I need to learn moonrunes already, people who pick what gets translated be crazy.

I couldn't get into it, far too lewd. Maybe I'm just too old-fashioned, as a lot of people seem to be enjoying it.

Why is it so important whether I call it pornography or not? It's equivalent to porn for me, whether or not it is technically porn is irrelevant.

>>34116
By definition it is pornography, if you want to be technical.

Rozen Maiden is such a neat series, although I have yet to actually read the manga. The anime, though, is definitely a memorable one, and probably one of my favorites. Incredibly engaging characters, a very interesting plot, very good character designs, and animation that's sometimes cheesy and kind of awkward (six finger Suigintou) but works most of the time.
There's also a new season that everybody ignored that's supposed to be based on the new manga. The first episode is a really hasty recap though so it's kind of awkward going into after you just watched/rewatched the original series.

I started watching it as well. I have finished the first two and Overture and am now watching the 2013 version. It feels A LOT different than the others, it was written by two people so maybe that's why or it may be that it was the anime making it more serious or the anime of the other making it less serious. It's quite subdued and almost boring at times so far.

Okay, so I finished watching the 2013 anime, plus I read the manga up to where the new anime starts and then skimmed through until the new anime ends to see if there were many differences.

The 2013 anime was not great, it didn't get better from when I made the above post. Where as the first had more of the dolls together and had them often in an SoL type setting the new version didn't. It was more drama like and I didn't like the protagonist or the antagonist(the true one, I like Sugintou) much and it got quite silly.

The new anime is not actually an alternative version, the old anime ran out of source material and as is often the case it had to make an ending of it's own. The new anime is based on where the manga picks up again(but then again, overtakes the manga). The Manga up until the point that the new anime starts is actually fairly good, it feels much more like the old season(even the parts from when it diverts), there are some other differences and I didn't mind them, Sugintou is portrayed slight differently. Well I think. There is a side story called Rot Schwarz that apparently goes into the back story of Sugintou and Shinku, if it's like the back story in Overture then it would just mean the manga contradicts itself, it's possible. I can't actually find this anywhere to read, I can only find that it exists.

>The new anime is based on where the manga picks up again(but then again, overtakes the manga)

Actually overtake might be a bit misleading, it just stops when it runs out of material.

Could someone tell me what OMG stands for?

>>33946
Is it Aa! Megami-sama! ?

KlK was good...?

>>28060
>I didn't see K-on as interesting to begin with. The girls are cute but... I guess it ultimately lacked the depth of, say, Azumanga or Lucky Star.
I don't think that's true. The level of detail put into K-On really elevates it, and the way the cast develops slowly over the course of the series is wonderful. I think the graduation scene in K-On is at least as impactful as Azumanga's. They're both among my favourite series, anyway.

Are you suggesting the owner is part of the yakuza or something?

I don't care if she does have occasional outbursts, I still like Midori.

>>33824
They share the same VA and he's well-known for his role as Kazuma Kiryu.

>>33224
That sounds quite interesting, do you have a link? I can't find it.

>>33225
The OST or hentatsu?

The album title is "kemurikusa music collection." It's surprisingly not on nyaa, but just google it and you can find rips (lossy only though).

Subbed version of latest hentatsu can be found at

Thanks.

Tatsuki announced a new series of Hentatsu, airing every week on TV. Link above has this week's episode.

So, I suppose this means he stills has the power to revive in this world. I was wondering that for awhile.
Maybe he's already died and reset from one of Ainz's floor guardians

Now with more shields.

>>33827
I don't think this addition is going to add anything really.

>>33055
You have to admit that the vast majority of discussion and interest about isn’t because there’s a lot of brass connoisseurs in the anime fandom.

>>33058
Sure, but I also don't think most people who like Girls und Panzer build tank models. There's lots of other reasons one might like one of those series.
>>33057
>The old business model has collapsed, and the route to make independent planning as a commercial work has disappeared.
Makes sense.
