Dangan Ronpa episode 4: The fansubs for this show are AWFUL.
It's not "Xenocider Show" it's "Genocider Syo". and the victims weren't hung, they were crucified. When subbing a show like this they should really pay a bit more attention and look at the source material if they have to.
*Facepalm* Seriously, what were they looking at? The LP spells out every damned thing you mentioned so unless they somehow never looked at it to double check there's no reason to not get it right, particularly when Xenocider isn't even a real word. More importantly, getting the method of murder wrong isn't something that can be overlooked when you consider the details of the case and what happened in between.Quote:

the text there barely shows up for a second and is all over the place and very hard to read. and look, it even says GENOCIDER SYO on the book
also, regarding the case itself and Genocider's identity (not problem with the fansub but with the anime itself)
CASE SPOILERS
anime is very, very rushed. should have been more episodes really.
I agree, people that begin by watching the anime before watching the LP or playing the game would just be confused because the details don't add up at all. Now I'm worried as to how the rest of the cases will be presented because each one is more intricate than the last and the omission of details just kills the mood of the story.Quote:

Gen'ei O Kakeru Taiyou 1-4: Interesting series, and a hell of a lot darker than the cutesy artstyle suggests. Has a very definite Madoka Magica vibe too it, including that the main character is a useless whiny tool.
Things really stepped up in the plot and gore departments in episode 4 after a couple of episodes of exposition, and i'm quite enjoying the plot. It's rather depressing in a way that they have to kill people until they figure out how to cure them.
Monster designs are creepy, especially the one in episode 4. brrr. those claws. once you get past the art style and the bland characters, the show itself is quite solid.
She's the least annoying of the 4 though; one is clingy and has thrown up so many death flags she could build a ship and sail around the world, one is a peach that hates the daemonia so much that I'd be willing to bet she breaks at some point and becomes one, just based on all the "weak" talk she throws around when she's the weakest of the four emotionally, and one is just there on a whim it seems, just because she has nothing better/else to be doing. 90% sure the brown girl teacher is company to something untoward, and 100% the bird and the cat are. Akari isn't useless like Madoka was, she just got potentially memory-wiped and learned that the daemonia still have human souls after having killed her cousin (and having driven her to become a daemonia in the first place), so it's obvious she would want to try to help them first. Based on the tone of the series though, I don't know how they will handle that.Quote:

I don't think I've laughed so hard at a tv show in a long time.
The amount of cringe in this episode was over 9000. The naganita.. the panties being used as a handkerchief.. the massager and the BL game...
This episode was completely full of win, enjoyed every minute of it.
Watamote 4: Suddenly, innuendo! For a main character, the massive amount of unluckiness sure makes a funny/sad scene. It's just great.
Dangan Ronpa episode 5: The anime actually did a superb job fitting the entire class trial into this one episode.
So many twists in this episode!
Spoiler
I imagine this episode will get people more interested in carrying on with the show
Rozen Maiden 5
They went into a lot more depth with the Megu/Suigintou relationship in this one. Megu is so morbidly adorable.
Monogatari: Tsubasa Tiger part 5: God I love Hanekawa. This episode was a very fitting climax to her character's arc that's been building ever since Nekomonogatari Black, and I felt a bit emotional at the end of it.
RAGE
Eurghhhh whatever. awesome end to an entertaining arc.
Looking forward to Mayoi Jiang-shi.
Gen'ei O Kakeru Taiyou episode 5: Much better episode this time. The villiain gender-bending was genuinely surprising, was he the little girl too? that peach was creepy as pineapple. On a whole the villain is a very creepy dude.
Plot still isn't really going anywhere though and the fight scenes, though well animated and nice to look at, are extremely short. Hope it gets a little better, but this episode was a slight gleam of hope.
Monogatari 5: Personally, I've never liked Hanekawa.
Araragi looks just like Laharl now. Powered up as a vampire?
Dangan Ronpa 5: I kinda want to solve the mystery for myself with the game, but that would take so long. From what I've watched of the Lets play, the game and the show are identical.
Spoiler
Watamote 5: 1st half was great with the use of the colourless thing, which reminded me greatly of another character in a distant universe who also has absolutely no presence. Anyway, 2nd was more of the usual media-inspired ways to (try) being popular, and where it ended up going to was, of course, hilarity. The angry angry brother and face grab was pretty good too.
Highschool DxD New episode 6: This show is awesome. really looking forward to the next episode. It's great being able to see the other characters shine and not just Issei, he's taking more of a support role and I like it, because the show has some really interesting characters.
Symphogear G episode 5: O.M.G. was shaping up to be a rather average episode when suddenly holy pineapple violence and gore.
Spoiler
Totally caught me off guard. what a twist.
The ED theme is also brilliant, and I love the transition at the end of episodes. Really helps with the "what the pineapple did I just see" factor.
Love Lab 6
MAKI IS SO ADORABLE OH GOD
Spoiler
Watamote 6: Perspectives sure speak volumes, and of course ants and horoscropes make everything better too (not). Everything got a bit sad, then went way up in hilarity in the end again, and outro sounded like Vocaloid. Great episode, and now to see what happens as next episode(s) head into summer vacation.
Half Time Report:
Blood Lad 6: eh
Daganronpa 6: its aight
Genshiken Nidaime 6: The show's really Hato centric, not that im against it or anything, but other characters need some spotlight as well
MJP 18: The show has really picked up after its terrible start
Kami-Nai 6: Scar's declaration at the end forced a "Wat?!" out of me
Kimi no Iru Machi 5: Country Bumpkins and emo cityfolk
Love Lab 6: show has a good amount of reactions
Monogatari second season 5: why you tease with recap for ep6
Servant X Service 6: a good amount of revalations, more gags ensue with relationships
SnK/Aot 18: Attack on Trees!
Railgun 17: still needs more saten
Watamote 6: boy those dirty middleschoolers
kaminomi 6
THE BEST TIME HAS COME AT LAST
I was waiting for Shiori episode, and it did not disappoint. BEST GIRL COMING THROUGH.
