Madoka Magica episode 3. I was not ready. Someone hold me. (>;3;)>

digi-kun January 20th, 2011 9:03 PM

Well, can't say I wasn't expecting it to happen, though I'll admit it was earlier than I had expected, especially since the episode count is variable still.

Weeaboo Name January 21st, 2011 5:15 PM

It does feel a little early for that sort of thing but no I was expecting some of this in Madoka★Magica. Really enjoying this series so far even if Mami's eyes are creepy.

Elite Overlord LeSabre™ January 21st, 2011 6:40 PM

Madoka★Magica is definitely proving to be the surprise series for me this season (and in a good way). I can't really put my finger on what it is that draws me into the show, but it keeps me looking forward to episodes each week :)

Weeaboo Name January 21st, 2011 6:52 PM

I think I feel the same way, there's nothing spectacular about it and it's far from groundbreaking under any light but you're right, you do anticipate the next episode more than the norm. Actually Fractale has the same feeling, I'm loving it without being 100% sure why.

Top 3 anime of the season so far so far would have to be Gosick, Fractale and Madoka★Magica.

/Insert 'What is this animu you speak of?' type question here.

Mami? I think you mean the devil in disguise Kyubei.

@Pixy: Obvs, we're talking about this manly thing right here.

Weeaboo Name January 22nd, 2011 8:00 AM

You do get the feeling Kyubei will be the final boss of some sort don't you.

A Pixy January 22nd, 2011 8:17 AM

Oh.

You gaiz make it sound like it's the best thing evar.

Is it? :U

Elite Overlord LeSabre™ January 22nd, 2011 10:04 AM

Maybe not the BEST thing evar, but pretty epic nonetheless.

Weeaboo Name January 22nd, 2011 10:51 AM

Hmmmmm it is pretty awesome if you like magical girls and Akiyuki Shinbou.

A Pixy January 22nd, 2011 10:51 AM

I have some pretty high standards for 'Most Epic Thing Evar'. :U

What is it's AQ (Awesome Quotient) on a scale of 1 to 100? o3o

Silly Pixy. Those titles are reserved for things like Cowboy Bebop, Code Geass, Vanishment, CLANNAD ~AFTER STORY~, Legend of the Galactic Heroes, Gurren Lagann, and FMA: Brotherhood. Since no show will ever live up to these pinnacles of anime, we have to settle for talking about the most popular flavor of the season whose awesome quotient is probably no more than 50 when compared to the 100s of the aforementioned titles and will be forgotten the moment it ends and replaced with the next most popular flavor of the season. Just like every other season. :V

A Pixy January 22nd, 2011 10:58 AM

Oh.

I have a personal vendetta against FotM things.

I'm more of a 'Timeless Classic' type person. :U

In related news, I saw Evangelion 2.0 two days ago.

In the theatres.

It was epic. :U

Spoiler:
Shinji must've tapped into some Spiral Energy toward the ending.

See this one? The is the bond that transcends all. People are talking and one mentions Legend of the Galactic Heroes, and suddenly, Woah! the respect meter suddenly shot up.

jigglyppuff8 January 22nd, 2011 12:23 PM

Too bad I haven't watched it and never plan to. :V

SILENCE! DO YOU KNOW WHAT YOU WILL UNLEASH WITH THAT STATEMENT?

Edelweiss January 22nd, 2011 3:12 PM

All I know is that my tastes > your tastes. NO ARGUMENTS ALLOWED!

Alice January 22nd, 2011 3:14 PM

^ Your tastes better be the same as mine then, or you're just plain wrong.

A Pixy January 22nd, 2011 4:58 PM

I like One Piece.

No one else here does.

MY TASTES ARE CRAP BY DEFAULT.

Weeaboo Name January 22nd, 2011 5:11 PM

When i tried OP ages ago i also didn't like Naruto orBleach, I like both of those now so chances are i'll like One Piece. I was planning on trying it again after i finish Code Geass and Spice and Wolf.

A Pixy January 22nd, 2011 5:26 PM

I'm reading it right now.

I like the part of the story where it is entertaining and where Oda's assistants draws all those pretty landscape shots. And actually draws backgrounds. :U

Weeaboo Name January 22nd, 2011 5:38 PM

I usually like the entertaining parts of stories as well ;). I've read a little of the manga and yeah for it's genre the art is nice. Compared to Bleach's Blandness and Naruto's stupid amount of toner i would say OP is superior.

A Pixy January 22nd, 2011 6:15 PM

My favourite part of One Piece, outside of the fact that this can be readily summed up as a reconstruction of the Shonen Genre, it's characters have character, it knows what it wants to be and isn't in denial, it's funny, it uses it's art creatively, Oda foreshadows hundreds of chapters in advance, it blindsides you at random times, but my favourite part is that Oda knows exactly what he wants to do with his story. He wants to tell a story and the story just happens to be long. No one criticizes the Harry Potter books for being long. Seven Samurai was more than 3 hours long. Sometimes big stories take a long time to finish. He's already half done. It's not like he's spazzing to try to finish things and he isn't already foreshadowing the ending. He is in control. His story will be finished when he's finished. He isn't gonna make it long for the sake of being long (Naruto) and he actually cares about his creation, instead of being nonchalant and dragging his story out (BLEACH). He cares for his story and is willing to make it long. It seems to have paid off too. Best selling manga of all time is a pretty prestigious title. :U

This post speaks


























THE TRUTH
