Anime/Manga uguu?

...Huh, well that's strange, I don't particularly know why I wrote that. Must of been the sleeps, went to sleep at around 4 and was woken up not much later.

Though that's definitely a flaw of Sparrows (Sparrow's?) Hotel.

It could be that they weren't the type of punchlines you were expecting, given its status as having roughly the same length of episode as Teekyu.

Or my memory of the show could be completely awful. Which is at least partly true.
 
Well the thing is, Sparrows Hotel is...I think...the first 4Koma anime I'd ever watched, but before that I'd read FMA, which had 4Komas at the end of each volume. I believe Yotsuba had some 4Komas...maybe.

Well, actually, my first 4Koma anime, which left quite an impression on me, was the famous Azumanga Daioh (which was also one of my first non-weekly anime). So I can't much say it's uncharted territory for me.

But yeah, I remember this being a problem with SH. Not so much Danchigai, though, that was a...not a mistype, exactly...more like dazed ramblings.
 
Yeah, Toonami and Kids WB stand out as the gateways for me. Counting the weeklies, my first anime would be Pokemon, Dragon Ball Z, Yu Yu Hakusho, RuroKen, etc. I started watching from about age 3-ish, but back then they were just shows. I didn't know what an anime was and I didn't know they were Japanese- they were just shows to me (and damn good ones, Toonami knew how to pick 'em).

That's why I say that I didn't get into anime until Anime Network On Demand came to be, so I was around 7 or 8. That's when I learned what "anime" was and what I consider my first anime (namely, Orphen, Those Who Hunt Elves, Saiyuki, Sorcerer Hunters, and various others). But yeah, I got into anime pretty early off.
 
Sounds good.

We got a couple of mahou shoujo shows on public TV and some shounen/seinen really late at night at some commercial station. I remember having a casual interest (I followed Pokémon since a young age and already had the anime virus in my drawing style), but never really got "into it" then, in the case of the former because they were mahou shoujo and in the case of the latter because it was really late at night. Most of it was subbed which was cool.

My memory is hazy, but I think I started actively watching anime (online) was around 2008, then with stuff like Love Hina and Bleach. Good times. Then I got into weekly shows in 2010 and from that point on I've been slowly ruining my life.

It's actually getting a game, must have all the Uchis.
 
Trying to actively figure out what characters mean and what points they come to in Oregairu is like doing a psychology exam based on an inconsistently translated textbook while someone is pouring cornflakes over you.

The conflicts and issues the characters face are all very clear, all the way to the end. But the arc conclusions and the conversations that usually follow are so vague that I have to wonder if it's an intentional (perhaps even stylistic) choice, or if the author was so afraid of viewers poking at his logic that he decided to veil it behind cloud after cloud of ambiguity.

Hey, maybe it's just the translation. Or maybe my powers of analyzing were completely disabled by some freak of nature mental loophole caused by watching this show in particular.
 
I dunno, the Shokugeki finale was pretty damn good.

Put off watching Gatcha Insight after watching the first episode, due to its execution, which worried me for the season ahead. Not that I think it'll be bad but...well, it was more that it didn't insight motivation. I'll watch it, though, since I enjoyed the original quite a bit.

Huehuehue.

I liked it a lot-ssu. Much less hands-on than season one, it rather focused on exploring its theme and its ideologies. Season two is an easily digestible, slow-paced social and political horror show. Which may sound (and is) weird and not what one would expect and it's generally pretty cool.

Still yet to touch Tosh Draws Food.
