Anyone know if "Eden of the East: Paradise Lost" has been subbed yet?
BLACK LAGOON SEASON 3!!!!!
Still waiting for it to be subbed :(
Well...
Evangelion 2.22: I caved. And it was awesome. Though some of the transformations were spoiled for me, mostly by the toys. Speaking of which...
The good thing about getting into Eva around 2.22 is that although I want the Revoltechs, I know they're redoing them for each movie (hell, they're making more than one version per Unit per movie). So I just wait till 4.44 and I'm set. Mari's figma is tempting though... I think I'll wait for Rei's, since she should come out at a time when I can afford her, and as long as she comes with the Entry Plug interior like Mari, I'll be happy.

Working!! 13:
I'd love to see a second season but I read that this season took up a lot of the manga material, like 5 volumes out of 8 iirc, so it will take a while if they do make one ;_;. Anyway, it was a fun watch like every other episode and since I didn't expect a grand finale or anything of the sort, I cannot say that I am disappointed with the end.
Also, Yamada in a <3.
Bakemonogatari 15: Awkward and corny in many parts; I think they said a lot of things best left unsaid. Terrific series nonetheless. The cat's a lot nicer than I thought. Still waiting for them to show a full version of his vampire encounter.
DRRR! 25 is coming, apparently. It'll be about:
Bakemonogatari 15: Fantastic watch. Yeah, the cat turned out to be a lot nicer than I had realized; thought that was pretty neat. I really liked some of the nice styles SHAFT used in this episode, like when the cat tells Araragi about Hanekawa's perspective on the events during that spring break. Also, how'd you guys feel about when you saw ?
^ Did you actually catch that on the first watch? I had to go back and pause several times to see. I only knew about it because some people were talking about something special about Shinobu while I was looking for information on the episode. It's an interesting tidbit but I don't see any reason for it.
Ooh, Cat pomegranate One looks good. Didn't someone post a trailer a long time ago?
K-ON 13: Mindpineapple episode. What actually happened?! I can't imagine what would happen to the club after they graduate.
Ookami-san 1: Kuroko making fun of small breasts? I don't like it so far. Many aspects seem forced, the epitome being the cat gloves and the cat faces after her punches.
Arakawa Under the Bridge 13: Shouldn't the mascot of Kappaland be a kappa? I liked the 3D theater the best. They never followed up on that episode when Nino put on a dress, did they?

Arakawa 13: Great series. Not enough Stella. Can't wait for season two. lolSHAFT.
Ookami-san to Shichinin no Nakamatachi 01: But... there's eight of them... I think the narration by Kuroko is a turn off. Ryoushi is a bit annoying. I just rather dislike his seiyuu though. Gotta love Itou Kanae and Itou Shizuka though. @ the ending, what the pineapple did I just watch.
Could have been me with the Cat Sh'it One trailer. I've been looking forward to this show for a year now.
The girst with the long braid in those Durarara sketches reminds me of Mari Makinami.
Gonna finishAngel BeatsandBakemonogataritonight I hope.
Angel Beats: Good show. Was not expecting to enjoy a Key show. Ending was a downer until the credits rolled. Hurr, let's just leave Otonashi there all by himself. Saaaad. Gaping plotholes and forced I LOOOOVE YOU THIIIIIIS MUCH right at the end, I liked it. Kanade damn well deserves her own action-packed show.
Bakemonogatari 15
Shinobu is the most criminally under-featured and under-explained character in any show I've seen. I'd love to see a prequel explaining the whole Spring Break vampire fiasco.
FMA:B 63
I really do wish I could remember the end of the first anime better. I was quite satisfied with this, but I want to compare :< Hohenheim, your facial hair will not soon be forgotten. Not sure what the hell they're going to spend another episode on, but I expect to see some Winry after all this time.

Slowpiking.
Angel Beats 13:
I don't know if I'm the only one who noticed this, maybe just because it's a Key anime, but the series played out like an actual adaptation of a visual novel. Even the pacing felt like they were cutting through the other routes as side stories and giving you the "true ending" for last.
Spoiler
It'd be interesting if a visual novel was actually made for this, with other possible endings.
All in all, I would have rather seen the epilogues of other characters as well.
Since the sequel series just came out, I decided to marathon this one in time for the sequel:
Kuroshitsuji 1-24: Darn, this was one of a watch, and a good series overall. Sebastian really made this series. Loved how twisted the villain was at the very ending; and the episodes from 19 on were simply amazing. The series could have been much better, though. I wish we got to learn more about the villains, a little less filler, and would have preferred it to be a little more serious than comedic. The comedy was pretty pleasant (particularly the Yakitate! Japan-like sequence in the curry contest), but I felt it could have been a much stronger series if it was serious.
Speaking of the curry contest, when Soma ran up to Mina in the audience, I shouted "JAMAL!" and "LATIKA!" at the top of my lungs expecting it to be an incredibly touching reunion sequence; and then... .

I know, right? After watching that episode, I went and downloaded a Tachibana Kanade wallpaper for my laptop. :p
L> Kanade-chan Fan Club.
Yeah...was hoping they'd put Koyomi Vamp in the anime...oh well...Bakemonogatari 15
Shinobu is the most criminally under-featured and under-explained character in any show I've seen. I'd love to see a prequel explaining the whole Spring Break vampire fiasco.
Ookami-san 1: I thought this anime was hilarious and the fact that the heroine acts exactly the same as taiga makes me want moar of this show to come out faster. T.T I did think that the narration was pretty fast paced and having narration on top of character dialogue makes things a tad confusing at times, but that also means we learn a lot more about the characters faster.
Kuroshitsuji II 1: I don't know if I like the new master- just yet. He gives off some really creepy vibes, and, he struck me as pretty bratty, and he got a little irritating; but I guess he's kind of cool and interesting. New butler is pretty slick- his tap dancing and watching him set the table was pretty neat. Watching ride the dining cart, and watching the two of them slide down the banisters in the foyer was pretty sweet. His voice isn't quite Daisuke Ono, but he might turn out pretty interesting. Dunno where they intend to take the plot with this series either; since the first anime really veered from the source material; and I'm not sure where they can go from here. Also,
Ookami-san 1: It's watchable. Solid voice acting cast, but too many aspects- particularly with the humor; seem a bit forced. I think the narrator really failed in trying to get me to laugh, but it might entertain some. Also, dunno if either of you would call out J.C. Staff on recycling their characters, but female lead doesn't really break away from their other tsundere leads- but it didn't really bug me. Premise seems a bit cute; but this first episode wasn't anything too special. It ended on a pretty funny note, though: . I can really just hope it gets better.
FMA:B 1-30: So I'm watching this while reading the manga, 5 volumes at a time at this point. Episode 30 = Volume 15, so I'm just going to post this while I'm at somewhere near the halfway point for both.
It's really good. I found myself looking at different windows while just listening to it some of the time (and I don't understand Japanese), but that was more to me already knowing what was going to the manga than anything else (and especially so for episode 27, since it was mostly recap and I only listened to that). Now that I've gotten to new material (I watched to ep 24 before, then stopped for a long time and just now started it this way), I've done it less often.
Very interested in what's up ahead. My goal is finishing on/by the 5th, but I don't know if I'll make it. Just want to be done around the final episode, which I really screwed up by starting it only a few days ago and then not making much progress the past few days... At this rate, the 6th or 7th is more likely.
I need to give this a proper rewatch when I end up with the DVDs. Especially episode 27, since I only really saw the opening and the ending. Sure seemed "CONGRATULATIONS" at the end there...
Amagami SS 01:
I have high hopes for this series. Nice character designs, some of my favorite voice actresses, and likable characters. What more can I as for?
Sucks that
