>>5 I'll admit the first episode was not what I expected, but I'm actually enjoying the pace right now, since I'm really watching it for the atmosphere, not for an intricate plot or for action. A lot of the time I feel like an anime suffers as a whole because each episode has to contain a required amount of action.
I didn't expect Amagami to be so damn enjoyable. The plot itself is shit, but you will like it if you like pretty girls (not just kawaii moeblobs) and haven't masturbated in the last few weeks.
>>6 It's true there are not many anime that nail the atmosphere. But if you haven't watched Angel's Egg, check it out. It's perfect for that. If anyone else has any suggestions, I'm looking for some.

>>7 Dropped it, but it's true the girls were really pretty. At the end of the day it was as an above average anime romance which isn't saying much.
>>9 Yeah, it's not for you if you aren't into the girls. To be honest, I wasn't expecting Tsukasa to turn out like that and that was definitely worth it.

Yesterday I met two girls from Japan, the name of the older one was Azuka (!) I asked her if she knew about Evangelion, she said "yes I know... but my name is actually pretty common in Japan, is like Maria here"
What are you currently watching? Lately anime has been pretty shitty so I've been watching old stuff. Didn't expect Kino's Journey and Aria to be that good.

>>22 A word of warning before you watch Aria: it's a series about fucking nothing. However, if you're the person to easily get attached to cute characters, you will greatly enjoy it. I am one of those faggots and this is probably one of the most heartwarming stories I've had the chance to watch. My mouth must have permanently turned into an omega shape.

/lounge/, recommends me a non-sexist anime to watch with my wife: she is extremely feminist and thinks that even Tonari no Totoro shows sexualized young girls...
Finished three seasons of Pretty Cure recently: Futari Wa, Max Heart and HeartCatch, in that order.
Futari Wa had nice character designs and the friendship between Nagisa and Honoka was well done. The battles have surprisingly raw action for a magical girl anime, and even though they don't make you super excited, they are enjoyable. The setup of the second half felt a little clumsy, but I suppose such a setup is not easy to do if you killed/sealed fucking everyone in the first half and urgently need antagonists. The insert song kicked ass, it's a shame they didn't use it during the final showdown. However, there was some really unnecessary crap. The fairies? (especially Porun) were the most annoying things in the world, the pacing was a little off sometimes and the Queen's CGI was an eyesore.
Max Heart was Futari Wa with all flaws amplified and all strengths not expanded upon. Characterization stopped almost completely for Honoka. Most characterization went to Nagisa instead and what didn't was used up for Hikari, who was an incredibly boring protagonist. Even though the relationship between Hikari and Hikaru had great potential, a lot of it went to waste because of the horrible pacing. In fact, I think Max Heart had the worst pacing I have ever seen in anime so far. The plot was a clusterfuck as well: Sure we could get off our asses and hunt Heartiels in order to resurrect the Queen before Dark King destroys the world, but honestly, who cares about that shit? The Heartiels go search for us instead, so it's time for field trips to the cake factory and amusement parks! What the fuck.
HeartCatch was great. The only gripes I have with it are the rather shallow main characters (especially Erika and Sasorina felt lame and too cliched), but I just watched a series that had more characterization than actual plot, so it might just be the stark difference making it look worse than it actually is. Well, that and the scenes where the fairies shit heart seeds into the heart pot. That was unnecessary. The finale was pretty awesome and the show handled plot twists in a decent way. Even though “I am your father, Moonlight” is overused and cliched as fuck, it was handled in a way that didn't make it completely obvious but wasn't M. Night Shamalama shit either. The scene where Dark PreCure staggers towards the professor was stellar and tear-jerking. The OST did its job well, too.
Thanks for reading my personal anime blog, /prog/lounge/.

>>55 Somewhere in the middle is usually a good place to start.
>>55 The seasons I've seen are all somewhat different in terms of style, so it will come down to your preferences. Except for Max Heart and GoGo which are continuations of Futari and Yes! respectively, they all have their own closed plot, so you won't exactly miss anything if you just jump through them out of order.

I had a bad dream and woke up. I don't have to get ready for work for another couple of hours. so I'm going to see if New Game is any good. It's also 4:20 right now, so I'm going to blaze it, faggots.

Okay, fully blazed. Anime appears to be moeshit, because the main character has the body of an eight year old but is actually an adult so it's not illegal to stalk and send her several nightly phone calls and start about how you are going to kill, then rape, her to to watch her panick. Truly a weeaboo's dream. If that's what it is, that's fine; I'm pretty kawaii myself, after all. I do feel like I was misled into believing that this was a LAIN-esque cyberpunk thriller about hackers stealing games from evil corpo-governemnts. I am not pleased.

This would be so much better if these people would just have sex with one another. This anime is so generic that it's not even cute. It's not a tenth as good as Prisma Illya. I don't know why I'm watching this, I don't even like anime and only care about the porn. But alas, by Ecclesiastes 5:19 -- "We must not view our calling as a drudgery, but take pleasure in the calling where God puts us.", I must struggle on as a good Christian soldier.

Final judgement: So bad I wonder if even otaku scum will even bother drawing porn of it. The writing team should all be baptized and forced to commit seppuku.

>>96 That's retarded, reviews are inherently subjective. And saying you'll like it if you're the sort of person that will like it is a pointless tautology.
The first season was great. The jokes were hilarious, the battles were engaging, and the fan service was kept to tasteful levels. Unfortunately, it devolved from there with each succsessive season. By the prequel movie, it was back to typical Fate crapola.
Unless you enjoy Fate, do yourself a favor and watch only the first season.
