I just had a discussion with Yuuki abut this and I must say that SAO wins by far. Yes most of it was a disappointment but it won hands down. Log Horizon was also really enjoyable (Please nte that I am not very strict/critical about my thoughts and ratings on anime) although it did have some huge let downs. For one, you never find out what exactly happened. Two, there was no ending... at all. Imagine this *spoiler alert* One of the MCs vanishes for some mysterious reason, you never find out why in the rest of the season and waiting for the next season which never comes. To me, SAO seemed very realistic and immersive where as Log Horizon seemed more like you are actually "playing" the game yourself. That being said, it all really depends on the person who is watching. SAO would be the console and Log Horizon the PC. Log Horizon would appeal more to people who play games such as LoL and DOTA whilst SAO would include those and then some. All in all, both great series and both are worth watching.

"Because right now its the signature this forum deserves, but not the one it needs right now"

This happens to me often but nowadays I really only watch on weekends. I have found that the more I want to watch the more it is pointless too. I cannot stand cartoons. Not sure why. The ones we had as kids were fine but the rubbish that airs nowadays is atrocious.

That was actually done on purpose as I know with the modernization of the workplace and such, many people have multiple cellphones. Some have multiple for other reasons. I was just curious to see the average that people carry. I was not aware the poll had to be related as in many of my threads they are not. However should you feel it needs editing I shall not complain. Not at all. It could be a television set or a PC or even a fridge (maybe if you stretch the bounds of what a gadget is)

futile efforts... I have already won. I know not the feeling of defeat, only they pleasure of you bowing before mine - me

Firstly, WTF DID I JUST WATCH!?!?!?! XD Easily the weirdest thing ever, anyone remember Nyan Cat??? I could not hold in my laughter from the get go. I dont feel like it is pedophilic however I do feel like that should be watched in 3D while high as can be on a trip of note. That being said, the animation style, apart from whatever that was, was not too bad. I am going to say that I enjoyed that video however that song was purely pointless and the combo for a druggie. I apologize to anyone who took offense from this post.

We all experience it one-or-another time in our lives. Finishing a series that you found so good or rather enjoyed so much, you feel as if life is no longer worth living afterwards. Personally I have not experienced this in almost a year or two which was about the time I started watching anime. For the first time in ages i have experienced this again today after completing Kuroko no Basket Season 3. It was nothing tear jerking (imo) however it deserves every positive rating and every star behind its name. Some of you may not have experienced post anime depression. Some may be thinking: "What does that even mean, Post Anime Depression?" To me, besides the obvious, you experience a feeling of loss of purpose and lack of motivation to do anything after watching. It feels like everything you do in life is pointless as your life shall never amount to that of the characters you watch living their extravagant lives. After doing some research I found that this is one of the reasons so called "Experts" say that watching anime, or TV in general, or playing Video Games and such is bad for our livelihoods and mental well being. This seems logical but there are ways to counteract this feeling just as with normal depression. Have a change of pace, get out of the house and go do something with friends or family. Avoid anime or electronics in general as it hinders your Dopamine levels due to you receiving a high, possibly overdose, from watching a good show. For others, starting a new series may even work but often enough the quality of that series will not seem as good. The bottom line is that you can not let said depression get to you or it will effect your daily life as you will constantly have negative thought patterns. I do not claim to be an expert on what I previously mentioned and if I am incorrect, feel free to let me know in the comments.

Vote! Vote! Vote! Its time for change! Trump for president!!! (Not even from USA)

I struggled with this manga. This usually does not happen but I could not stand the slow paced beginning.

Not yet. I will win. Also just saying.

Firstly, welcome to the forums loligod I have never had the pleasure of conversing with a member of Deviantart so this is pretty cood . I was not aware games like those appeared under the E-sports title. Could you explain to me more about this. See you around and happy hunting.

He who derps shall be the winner. And I be derping so I SHALL WIN!!! POWER TO THE DERP (bwahahaha)

So today while getting my playtime done I hit a slight rage and slammed my custom PS4 controller into the side of the couch and broke the casing. Thankfully it was an easy fix and I managed to do it myself. Just had to buy the specialized Phillips #000 to do it best thing is, it only cost $1.50. This is the third controller I have managed to break since day 1.

The stakes are beyond high but not like the chance of loss I guess it's a win or lose game of life and whoever breathes, wins. I've never understood the bet and I doubt I ever will but there's one thing I do know; you can never be too sure. ((Stolen)) Who even knows if I will win? No man, woman, god, n or karma deciding: based on sin Whether I truly will win Fate... Tis fate that shall decide When tears and blood are shed It shan't be mine that were cried There is but one winner, the rest, loser For that be there no debate -Me (im so bored but im sure i will win)

This is a two part thread due to the topics being linked yet different.. A link to the first half will be provided. http://animeforums.net/threads/dedication-or-defamation-part-1-of-2.2040/ Assuming, yet again, you have read my first post you should understand what this thread is about. For those who have not, I suggest you read it and they return here. So in the previous post we discuss how much we love doing what we do. We spoke about what we have invested into such and what not. However, no matter how much we love something it is often looked down upon by the majority of Earths population. Albeit an antisocial task or a convention for homeless people. Personally I get really upset when people ridicule you about your passion. You have invested largely into it and then others belittle you for enjoying it. When you love doing something it is just as when you love someone. Others opinions should not do negative things to demotivate you from doing it or them. Unfortunately with the world in the state it is, people do not have such thinking patterns (that's if they are thinking at all) and say what they please. How should one react in such situations? What should you say? Should you return the favor? In my opinion, the only way you should react is by not getting upset and simply try to see their point of view and get them to see yours. Do not say anything that would upset them in an attempt to get revenge. It only ever seems petty and desperate. I feel like you should let them know how you feel yet keep up the facade of not being too hurt by it rather then lashing out. Agree/Disagree? Feel free to let me know in the comments and/or post a scenario and how you dealt with it if you want.

This is a two part thread due to the topics being linked yet different.. A link to the second half will be provided. http://animeforums.net/threads/dedication-or-defamation-part-2-of-2.2041/ "You are wasting money!" We hear this time and time again from our parents, peers and partners but to us it is more then just an object. It is an investment. A part of life. To some who live and breath their passions, being without that poster or figurine is like being without a kidney. Assuming all members on this Forum have watched their fair share of hours of anime, and have invested large somes of money or other resources into anime or various other hobbies. When we love something and find it fun we tend to ignore what we need and/or confuse what we want with what we need. For me I invest large amounts of time into things that I enjoy and make part of my life. I used to grow Bonsai and would spend hours every day working on them and such. Recently(not that recently though) I moved over to anime and have spent hundreds of hours watching. Years ago i started gaming and have spent over 10 thousand hours on my PlayStation 4 and that is without mentioning the countless hours on my PC and the Xbox 360 I played on when I stole my cousins house. If you are like me and have invested time, money, blood, sweat and tears into something, feel free to post a comment below. Be sure to tell us: What it is, Why you enjoy it and Would you recommend it. Perhaps we can build a bigger community and you can find fellow forumers who have similar interests other then anime.

Amen That being said, many times a producers bank balance is in the negatives during and after something is made. As you said it is a gamble and they are more likely to take said gamble if they know that enough people are willing to pay. The only way they will know this is by signing.

I have not yet invested any time into learning Japanese due to me currently writing Matric. In due time however I intend to start attending classes. I have always found it enjoyable to learn new languages.

Kiyoshi x Hanna from Prison School These two were not actually a couple but *spoiler*

Recently I saw part of this anime in an amv. The shortened name is Watamote it does have a full name but that would give this thread over 100 pages . The reason I love this show is the fact that the main character is a high school girl who has no friends and is trying to get out of her funk. She is a hectic otaku in almost anything not considered "hip" thus i found it very relate-able. It also has the best OP I have ever, EVER seen in an anime and the ED is rather comical. Not everyone will enjoy this but I found it rather entertaining.
