    Only 2 episodes out but I'm liking Hansaku Iroha. Looking forward to ep 3. The animation quality is pretty good.

    So, 2nd episode of Tiger & Bunny was pretty cool. Me likes.

    Episode 2 of Dog Days was meh. Leonmichelle is quite cool, and it was funny in places but it's fairly average.

    Just gotta remember to apply Sturgeon's Law to every season of releases.

    Only 10% or less of the new shows will be good. This has held true for every season.

    Deadman Wonderland is everything I expected it to be. Watch it!

    They are currently still doing Roberta's Blood Trail, but each episode is an OVA and is separated by 3 or 4 months. No idea why they are doing another season after that though.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,457 ✭✭✭Lenmeister


    I haven't watched any of the OVAs yet but I will soon. I've alot of stuff to get through. Hope they bring another season out. Above all I wish that writer that done Hunter x Hunter would get better, damn I loved that series!

    Tiger & Bunny bored the crap out of me.

    Premise had potential, execution however didn't have any energy whatsoever. I blame the Japanese "announcer", he could make a fight between gods sound boring & formulaic.

    Dropped.

    I'm not sure we were watching the same thing.


  • Registered Users Posts: 773 ✭✭✭Cy_Revenant


    I'm really enjoying Tiger & Bunny.

    It's quite funny and intelligent. Very well written stuff.

    I haven't tried C or Deadman Wonderland yet but it's looking like the best show of the season.

    The fifth episode of the OVA will be released in May, I preferred the series meself, Roberta's Blood Trail doesn't seem to have the same appeal.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,457 ✭✭✭Lenmeister


    Cheers for that, something to look farward to.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,164 ✭✭✭Konata


    Dropped Dog Days. Didn't even bother finishing this week's episode, the show had no real hold on me.

    Gonna have a look at Deadman Wonderland later.

    It's an Easter miracle, Showa Monogatari got picked up by a fansub group. Now to find out if it was any good or worth the wait.

    The English is probably terrible.
    hatsuyuki after all...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,041 ✭✭✭cocoshovel


    Dropped A channel and Hidan no Aria (after 10 mintues lol)

    Anybody else watching Ano hi Mita Hana no really long Namae? Alls I can say about it is........ouch, that hurt me :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 945 ✭✭✭gearoidof


    Hidan no Aria... gg coco I only got to 4 minutes before dropping it!

    Tiger&Bunny 4: Blue Rose's catchphrase is very annoying! She's actually a terribly character in general, tbh, but at least the camp gay guy from the US seems to have a bit of depth.

    C and denpa onna are both great, I recommend checking them out. Though denpa onna really doesn't bother with subtlety in its references, does it...


  • Registered Users Posts: 773 ✭✭✭Cy_Revenant


    Deadman Wonderland is pretty poorly written. Just plain bad, like. They seem to be making it really dark to make up for it. Good animation though.

    Tiger & Bunny is still the show of the season for me. Fantastic animation and great writing. Though the story doesn't seem to be going anywhere yet.

    I'll try C next week or something.


  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 17,133 Mod ✭✭✭✭cherryghost


    Give DMWL a few episodes. The story clears up, promise :pac:


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,370 ✭✭✭Knasher


    I'm enjoying Deadman Wonderland so far, mostly just on the animation side though, not sure where the story is going.

    I'm also enjoying the second season of the world god only knows. Though it's possible that the idea that gaming skills would translate into being awesome with women is something that appeals to me.


  • Registered Users Posts: 773 ✭✭✭Cy_Revenant


    C is very, very silly.

    Yet, somewhat enjoyable.

    It feels like an old style monster shounen battle show a lá Yu-Gi-Oh! wearing big boys clothes.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,164 ✭✭✭Konata


    Well, Oretachi ni Tsuabasa took a turn this episode (4). I wasn't sure where it was going, the first 3 episodes were just slice of life/romance story but now there seems to be a more magical/fantasy element to the whole thing? Not sure but this week's episode was certainly more interesting.

    After watching a few episodes of each I think the order of my favourites this season so far are:
    1. Denpa Onna to Seishun Otoko - first impressions were just okay, it being shaft i had faith and am loving it now(whether that be fanboism or not im not sure)

    2. Ano hi Mita somethingsomethingsomething - the noitamina timeslot that usually proves to be good, looking good so far though the latest episode had a bit of a 'what the fuuuuuuuuuuuu' moment

    3. Steins;Gate - was undecided on this for the first few episodes since not much was happening but the characters are awesome and i'm looking forward to seeing how it goes especially after ep 5.

    others in no particular order that i'm enjoying would be Hanasaku Iroha, C - money of soul etc, Deadman Wonderland, Kaiji and TWGOK. surprisingly good season for me, didn't expect to watch so much of it
