I am glad that Saruhiko was playing the Green's and that Yata got to save him , hopefully he gets a promotion from the Blue king , after all that trouble he deserves one.

I am also a little surprised that Munakata had planned to do this as a last resort so long ago , though it does not surprise me that he was so prepared for the failure of his plan.

I can't wait to see Kuroh and Yukari fight and to see Shiro fight , though I have got a sneaking suspicion that he wont actually end up fighting.

To be honest I was a little underwhelmed by the ending of Owarimonogatari.

The fight between Araragi and the first was less than I expected it to be but it was a smart play by Araragi to use the seal.

Shinobu's last words with the First were also a little less than expected.

There was also Ougi , who I still dislike , it seemed to me that she was only there to buy some time , though she may have had some small impact on Araragi's thinking before the fight with the First.

The major problem that I have with this series it that it petered out and ended like nothing happened , though I suppose in a way that is a good way to end the series I just feel let down by it.

What are your feelings on the ending of Owarimonogatari?

Looking back there were some great anime released this year.

My Top 6:

1. Kuroko no Basuke 3

2. One Punch Man

3. Working!!!

4. Aldnoah.Zero 2

5. Arslan Senki

6. Akagami no Shirayukihime

My biggest worry with this anime is that they might negate the whole Idea of "normal" characters and the characters might end up overpowered , I just want to see characters with no special abilities stay that way and still manage to struggle through with just their willpower and grit.

I got a little off topic but I am also hoping that A-1 pulls this off well.

The 14th and final episode in the "Working!!!" anime

Airing: December 26

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=05VkdrO-JSo

I have been waiting for this special ever since they did the PV at the end of the 13th episode of the third season of Working!!! , I cant wait to see how everything works out and to see more Inami.

I am glad you enjoyed it , I was also hoping for an ending where Saburo would be sent back home but ... oh well.

I am also looking at watching the Live Action series and film made about it but those are a little harder to get..

I am hoping to get both my N5 and N4 done in 2016.

Here's hoping

It's been quite while since anyone posted their progress so I thought I would ask, how have you all been doing in your studies ?

Mine are going well and I think I will be more than ready for my N5 when it rolls around next year, I have been studying kanji a lot more now and I think I am doing pretty well , also I have been reading manga in Japanese (borrowed from my Sensei ) which is helping my reading a lot and I have been watching more and more anime RAW (which pleases me the most out of all my achievements at the moment) though there are still times when I get lost ... Oh well I will just have to study harder

Oh cool! Thanks Yuuki

No problem

I'm pretty sure Paprika is a Sci-Fi ... I'm sure you would enjoy it.

I know I did

Also a non-Sci-Fi movie that I think is brilliant is Ookami no Kodomo Ame to Yuki.

Got Homura

I am busy watching the second Yuru Yuri season and Loving it.

I am also watching a few other series but not as actively as I am with Yuru Yuri S2.

The "Abductors" Invaders from Altea come to Earth with only one purpose, to harvest humans. DEAVA the Aquaria Academy exists to train men and women to use Aquaria, but they cannot ever merge because of Guize stones, these block an "unholy union" between genders. The story follows Amata and Mikono in their enrollment into DEAVA, and fight their fight with Abductors.

A brilliant anime that not only had a great story and characters but also had great visuals and fight scenes.

I suggest this anime to anyone who enjoys Mech , Action , Romance , Drama or Fantasy.

Aquarion shares the top scoring position in my watched anime on my AniList and it definitely deserves to be there.

I hope this turns out to be as funny as I think it will be , the fact that it was picked up by Feel does give reason to believe that it will definitely hold up in the comedy section , from what I have seen from them before I know that they do comedy series very well.

For high schooler Kei—and for at least forty-six others—immortality comes as the nastiest surprise ever.

Sadly for Kei, such a feat doesn't make him a superhero. In the eyes of both the general public and governments, he's a rare specimen who needs to be hunted down and handed over to scientists to be experimented on for life—a demi-human who must die a thousand deaths for the benefit of humanity.

I am hoping that Polygon Pictures can do a good job on this one like they did with Sidonia no Kishi and this series does look very promising and I hope the 3D animation won't detract from the anime.

Saitama was brilliant in this episode , My favorite was this moment.

I don't think it's possible for this series to get any better , One punch man has met and exceeded my expectations from the start and I am honestly felling quite sad knowing that the next episode will be the last.

Hopefully the second season will be green lit soon , I really don't see a reason for them not to air other than waiting for more material to be released in the manga.

While I'm really looking forward to this coming season, I'm a bit afraid they might go for too much drama considering the circumstances.

I must agree , I don't want the drama to overshadow Zen and Shirayuki's relationship.

While a bit of drama will be good, I more look forward to seeing how their relationship will progress overall, and perhaps Zen succeeds the throne in this season...? That would be cool.

While that would be awesome I doubt Zen's older brother will abdicate the throne to Zen , I do think that Zen might be given some land / a castle of his own somewhere in the kingdom (though probably later in the season if it does happen).

The second season of Akagami no Shirayuki-hime

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yP9kzpaQF20

I am looking forward to seeing more of Shirayuki and Zen in the new season.

Hopefully we get to see them get married or try to do so.

Living, isn't easy.

When Haruhito awakens, he's in the dark.

He doesn't know where he is, why is he here, and where he came from.

Around him there are several men and women who have the same circumstances.

Together, they advance forward away from the darkness, and a world they've never seen before called "Grimgar" spreads out before them.

Memories, money, special powers — This is the reality we who have none of those things have obtained.

I am really looking forward to this anime the concept alone is brilliant and the fact that it has been picked up by A-1 Pictures just makes me want to watch it more. A-1 has produced a lot of good anime over the years and I hope this will be going onto that list.

I am really looking forward to some new KNB , I hope that we will get to watch Extra Game some time within the next year.

Renton Thurston is a 14-year-old boy who lived with his mechanic grandfather in a backwater town. Every day he dreamed of being with the mercenary "Light Finding Operation (LFO)" aircraft pilot group "Gekkostate" and riding "Trapar" particle waves —a sport called "reffing"— with their charismatic leader Holland, especially when faced with his father's acclaimed past or his grandfather's desire to protect him. When a young girl named Eureka riding the original LFO, the "Nirvash typeZERO", asks his grandfather for a tune-up, she inadvertently brings the attention of the military to the garage; as a result, the garage is destroyed and Renton is forced to deliver a new type of interface —the "Amita Drive"— to the Nirvash. After a heated fight in which the Nirvash destroys the military LFOs by unleashing an immense amount of power, Renton is invited into Gekkostate. However, he quickly realizes that behind the facade of a traveling group of mercenaries is a very bitter reality.

A brilliant anime and one of my personal favorites , it has everything Drama , Romance , Action , Adventure , Comedy , Mech and more.

I recommend this to anyone who enjoys Mech , Sci-Fi or Romance anime.

Yesh! Especially if it's bad and done cheaply! :3

Haha I see , with anime I'm more into romance than anything else though I do enjoy a good horror / gore anime from time to time (the darker the better).

You should probably check out Kowabon it's an anime short series and it is brilliant.

I'm guessing you're a big fan of horror ?

Well things certainly took a huge left turn ... while somehow managing to still keep on track.

It seems as though Araragi will still fight the first but the reasons for the first's return and will to see Shinobu again may not be what we were expecting.

My favorite manga would have to be anything that hideshi

wrote,drew,or was involved in x3

I assume you mean Hideshi Hino ?
