Mars Terra

On the contrary, I would say there are not enough magical girls in Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica.

Anyways, Conan deserves at least a hug for doing what he does all the time for the last 2 decades, and it doesn't look like he'll be retiring anytime soon.

Did you say she was a Magical Girl!? *Hugs immediately*

I did like Brother's Conflict, but i didn't like how Ema returned their...um...affectionate like peck on the lips.

I'm glad you liked it, thank you for picking it up. And thanks for telling me you did instead of leaving me wondering. Have you tried Code Geass yet? If so, I'd love to hear your thoughts on it.

I know why I haven't heard of the anime, but why haven't I heard of the manga in which it's based upon?

The first thing I noticed is that Nat is undeniably voiced by Mutsumi Tamura, Lute in Monster Hunter Stories: Ride On. The artstyle is not what I'm used to, but the characters are very kawaii and the world is beautifully depicted and this has the production quality of a movie. It seems like a fun and creative serie, looks like we'll be getting the dungeon aspect of Chocobo's Dungeon yet in the form of a anime.

Arigato RepentantSky-senpai, if you didn't make this thread then I would've missed out on this sugoi anime!

5. Stop the Harems, all of them. This is a trope that at a time was once compelling, used to make anime romantic drama's more enticing for fans, but as of late, both Japanese anime and anime style games have used it as a way to simply push one note characters who is a Mary Sue sort of protagonist who acts all flustered about the situation to show they have a good or innocent side, and they are often treated as though that's the best way to get that across which is foolish. They had ways to do it before the Harem idea was used, and a lot of people weren't tired of those. But hey, gotta get that sexy in there for all those lonely anime fans on prom night right?

This probably has little to do with what you're talking about here, but the problem lies in the other male characters--which are sometimes non-existent--where the secondary hero is usually a pervert, which wouldn't be so bad, if that weren't the only personality trait they had and they're usually so open about it too.

There still be more heroes with likeable personalities--but honestly I just want more relatable male characters in shonen/seinen anime, I'm sure you can agree?

I don't know that one.

Tales Of Zestiria: The X

Can I add another one? I kept forgetting to mention it. But it's the trend of adding one symbol to the end of a anime title and that's season 2.

Like K-On! to K-on!! or Is The Order A Rabbit? to Is The Order A Rabbit?? (Can't wait for itOaR??? where things get really confusing, apparantly) or New Game! to New Game!! (This is annoying because it should of been called New Game! Plus or something)

Besides that there is Nisekoi; and Ore No Imouto Ga Konnani Kawaii Wake Ga Nai. and I don't know how this all started but didn't they stop to consider how confusing this might be?

So I was hoping we could compare lists, here is the other anime I've seen in order I watched them

Please take a look.

Here I am, once again

I'm torn into pieces

Can't deny it, can't pretend

Just thought you were the one

Broken up, deep inside

But you won't get to see the tears I cry

Behind these hazel eyes

My last post, kind of the same thing here. But, I get where you're coming from, it does seem odd to have fan service in a show's opening or ending where it is otherwise completely nonexistent.

I don't like seeing Madoka used in this way, or any innocent character for that matter. I don't even want to read the other Puella Magi series anymore, because they might have fan service in them, in which I've zero tolerance for when it comes to this franchise. There's enough to deal with as is, why should I have to put up with this as well? If it's necessary for the story I would be more open to the idea, but that is almost never the case.

Let me actually add a new one and say, filler episodes where a has to make something from point A to B and a whole bunch of shenanigans ensue to make a simple task take a whole episode. These are annoying for a couple reasons, namely that these kind of things were often the tropes of short cartoon plots probably from the 1930's or so onwards, so they were already pretty old by the time they were being used in fillers, but the way they are done is a poor attempt at being manipulative because whatever item is important to either a one-off character, or it's for a major character and you never see it again, accept maybe in the background. Also, these episodes have an odd habit of "person getting thing has something person trying to get it to them does not" and somehow by the end, the person giving it to them learns a lesson about this and such. It's not a big deal, but it's really annoying and lazy, and can sometimes lead to the character totally breaking character just for that episode, only to act like they never learned the lesson they were supposed to, meaning the whole episode has no point, even as a filler.

It's a little unfair to say to be picky about filler, since they have to quickly come up with a idea for a episode or arc that did not exist before. Yet, do anime really need filler? Boku No Hero Academia doesn't use it and it's incredibly popular, if they could of had anime be seasonal before, ah but there's a reason they couldn't isn't there?

i've only seen the first episode, i can't rate.

If you don't mind, then let me know when you've completed it.

Anyways, I haven't seen the anime above me.

No Game, No Life

I'm talking about a different manga called Diabolik Lovers. The series's name is Diabolik Lovers: Prequel (I'm not so sure about series and stuff...I get confused...so...maybe you can understand by how I wrote it? I tried my best to make sure it makes sense...)

Oh no, you made it clear enough. I think I failed to make myself clear though, I was talking about Death Note in that first paragraph and about Diabolik Lovers in the second paragraph.

In any case according to both MyAnimeList and Anime Planet it has 7 chapters, and it's tied into other media, right? If so then it's just a prequel manga.

*squeals with delight* I LOVE DEATH NOTE!! I just finished the anime last year. So...there's a manga series of Diabolik Lovers (don't check it out unless you're 17) and its prequels are just a chapter long. So...does it mean it's a one shot?

I love Death Note too!

I'm not sure, but I think that would just make it a prequel, could you provide the name for the series you're referring to?

Never seen it...but someone I know likes it, so, um...10/10??

Kokoro Connect

6.5/10 I think Vash is a bit too much of a do-gooder.

Deadman Wonderland

Nudity in opening and ending animation, it's been really ticking me off lately. Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica is guilty of this, even though this show is fairly low in fan service, this still persists. Madoka is a 14-year old girl, so this is wrong no matter how you slice it. Momokuri also does this, and while Kurihara is probably 16 and therefore would be considered a adult in japan, Momokuri is a incredibly cute anime with essentially no fan service otherwise, so this seems misplaced.

Why do OP and ED animation teams feel the need to include this kind of stuff into anime that wouldn't have it other wise?

Um...what are one shots? I just finished watching Ouran Highschool Host Club a month ago. And I didn't read the manga (cause I'm too lazy...). So...yeah. Please explain one shots to me.

They are self-contained stories that are only one chapter long. One-shot manga are often written for contests, and sometimes later developed into a full-length manga series. Many manga series began as one-shot stories, including Dragon Ball, Fist of the North Star, Naruto, Bleach, One Piece, Berserk, Rurouni Kenshin and Death Note.

It think avatar counts as a anime but its a mix I guess

 

You seen SAO 2 but not SAO your crazy...

SAO was already halfway through it's reshowing on toonami by the time I became aware of it's existence, I was told me it was no good. I wanted to see SAO II because it took place in a FPS, I watched it with other people until episode 10 and only then started to enjoy it so I wonder if I would of enjoyed it if I watched it alone.

Because of that, I want to try the light novel at some point.

Of the ones I've read I think Bad Shield United by Tite Kubo, featured in Zombie Powder volume 4, and Romantic Egoist by Bisco Hatori, featured in Ouran Highschool Host Club volume 2 were the best. They're worth checking out if you have the time.

Don't be sad Elsie GreenEyes, I've made it a habit to keep track of the episodes I've seen and when I've seen them.

If we're talking just anime and no additional seasons or OVAs, assuming that just seeing season 1 will suffice, then I have seen 40.

HOWEVER, there are a few other I'm not sure about.

Despite the art style, pretty sure that Avatar: The Last Airbender doesn't count.

I've seen SAO II, but not SAO.

I saw Rave Master. But the anime got cancelled with no proper end.

I started Kokoro Connect as a manga, but switched to the anime.

Thoughts?

I've pick up a series called Clione No Akari. It's sweet and beautiful and I love it. There are only to be 12 episodes with each being 8 minute long, not including the OP, so why not check it out?

8/10 Though I am reading the Light Novel and I like how Ainz is kind of evil because it makes this dark-hearted.

Servamp

Kudos to anyone who can guess what 2 anime this is a hybrid of.

5/10 I didn't enjoy it as much as I originally first thought I would

 

Ah! My Goddess

I haven't seen it, would read the manga if it wasn't so long...

Mob Psycho 100
