Not since Kingdom 38 that is!
I vaguely remember reading the pachinko machines were set in a different era but I think that's it. They just took the base concepts and characters and simply decided to do something different with them. Clearly pachinko machine adaptations are the future of anime if they can lead to the creation of the secret best half-hour show of the season BAKUMATSU GIJINDEN ROMAN.
Just stop at episode 12, forget season 2 exists and treat the OVA I have yet to watch as some gag extra.
Fortunately for me there's a couple of months to purge this sickness from my system.

Gundam 00 2
"I mean I have more than a casual interest in them. I mean I'm gay for them. The Gundams, I mean." I hate ponytail guy and his blonde buddy almost as much as I already hate random space kids and also Shinn Asuka Jr. But I like the Dynamis' pilot and Haro, and I feel I was too hard on this show to begin with. Setting it in AD makes it kinda interesting, because I sorta care about the background politics for once (only other time was in Wing.)
So Cheerios is the guy's name, and Hallelujah is his Gundam. No, Cheerios is the Gundam, and Alleluia is the good persona and Hallelujah is crazy? Fuuuuh. Lockon and his Dynamis are really the only salvagable members of the entire crew so far. This colonel has a weird scar on his face. I'm gonna call him colonel Pubert, though, because he has a tiny puberty mustache, and I don't want to care about the one facial characteristic they want me to care about.
Green guy and Haro are my favorite characters.
OH NO ETHNIC WARFARE! Because Gundam handles those well. Also love the glossing over the fact that if the HRL didn't support the minority side in this ethnic warfare, there'd be no diplomatic way of supplying energy to you know, a third of the planet. In other words, the Gundams are coming to stop a battle that is only happening because people chose to avoid murder and conquest to supply energy for the world.
So basically, Gundams are going to war because people chose the more peaceful path.
UGH SETSUNA GET OVER YOURSELF. I hope that your strangely mechanical attitude means you take after Heero Yuy and not Shinn Asuka, kid. Because if you're Shinn Asuka Jr., this is gonna be a LONG 50 episodes. You already LOOK like him, so at least do us the favor of taking after Heero. I know Anime-GAF doesn't wanna hear it, but Heero was a pretty good protagonist. Especially compared to brats like Shinn and sociopathic, genocidal monsters like Flit.

It's only a matter of time what with the CG Mecha renaissance being mere weeks away.Maybe pachinko success can revive old franchises too: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JwPxHNfGSwg
Akito already released a while ago.

Heero is great. Why would anyone hate on him?
I wondered about that with the opening episode. If he turns out to be like Sosuke that'd be great, since Sagara is my favorite mecha protagonist (even if Roger Smith is undeniably cooler), and his whole trip from being a Heero Yuy clone to an actual human being is well done.
So if Setsuna turns out like Sagara, that'll be cool.
Some people hate Gundam Wing. They're crazy, but they exist.

Isn't that exactly what it is, or am I thinking of something else?
Wow. I fell asleep on the floor for a few hours and suddenly there's 4 more pages!
What happened?
Komugi is excellence in parody. It has a few fun surprises that aren't really spoilers but I don't want to ruin anything at all.
Watch this. As soon as possible. Plus its short.
You should also check out mushishi and (good) Aria if you want to relax. Maybe even Someday's Dreamers.
Well if you don't mind going backwards a bit, Kino's journey, Haibane Renmei, and Tatami Galaxy are unique experiences, though not comedy focused at all.
Ever since I heard what you sound like (remarkably similar to one of my friends actually) I read all of your posts in your voice and it is AWESOME.
I agree. this is very good advice!
I still want to know WHAT this is. If its Pachinko, I'll be disappointed.
Oh my...
#3. Hime cut. Probably thats Kuroneko. Doing things of a naughty nature.
But whatever, its hime-cut!
Sadly, I do not recognize any doujins. I'm a disappointment.
You read way too much into that. I've read that it is bad, but I'm not going to call something awful unless I've seen some of it myself and hate it. Otherwise, its mediocre until proven terrible.
I like Hyouka actually. I will certainly buy it on bluray if it gets licensed.
I mainly knock on it because Pizzaroll goes nuts. Its amusing.
I agree with this. there's no point in drawing anymore unfavorability to animeGaf as we already have otherGaf of pins and needles as it is. They clearly do not trust this community and its kind of sad, but its a stigma we have to live with, so best not to aggravate it further.

Dumb things like this make shows climb higher on my backlog.

I agree. Its as if people who like the small cute characters cannot function as an adult in any capacity to these people. they cannot fathom that someone their age might like the artwork or girlish designs.

That was the scouting force.
Everything you said except the human and the good part.

bad gameplay lol
The iDOLM@STER 14
Hmm...not sure the show needed an over-the-top blatantly evil antagonist. But we'll see how it goes, I guess. I mean, I get that he's meant to be the antagonist, but he might as well have come out and said "Hi, I'm BOB EVIL". A little more subtlety would have been nice. Ah well. Anyway, not much else to say beyond that. Decent little episode showing how things have progressed since the concert. Next episode looks really good.

Think of Akito as the precursor.
Well yeah, which is all the more reason to stop at S1 for the "main series".

What a scary world we live on :/
So . . . he doesn't turn out like Sousuke and Heero at all, then?
Oh well, there's still Lockon.

Halleluia is the best one. But Lockon is a close second.

Amasuka Live is a great episode though.
Oh, fuck. Mixed up episode numbers. I meant to say episode 16, Hibiki's. Apologies.

Well, it's not horrible either, better than 14 at least.
Hibiki's episode, on the other hand, is terrible.
Guy can't even keep his own name straight, man.
Mobile Fighter G Gundam 2
COULD CHIBODEE BE MORE MURICAN? I think not. He's hilariously 'Murican in every way and I love it. This was a good episode, with Domon concluding "You're one of the good guys."

He doesn't have one name. Which is why he's awesome.
they don't want you to mix up good guys and villains, it's not that obvious in this anime.
You only get 2 names in Gundam if you're wearing a mask and piloting a red suit. Since his suit is orange and he has no mask, he has no reason for the second name.
He actually does. The Char of 00 doesn't though.

You'll see.
Fixed. Also, I agree!
I don't know, I get the impression they like it quite a bit.

Should of waited for next gen. Only then you'd have more power to render the thighs as the anime intended.
They just gave it a little push.

It's their fault. They started it with a loli thread :/
Just like CG is the future of anime, lolis are the future of gaming. Best to accept it now and move on rather than fight it.

It's not about loli anyway. It's about dancing, EO4, Russian literatture, drawing, semantics...
Those are all pretty much the same thing.
A well rounded discussion topic if ever there was one!

Not in the way they were adressed there. But anyway, this thead was kind of fun.
