My Strike Witches folder is almost 3000 images with minimal repeats. That alone would be a challenge for a "best of".

Ya'll be pedophiles. I only like manly stuff like Gears of War and FOOOOOTBAAAAALLLLLL!!!
How do you even maintain a folder system? I need some kind of tagging system to work most efficiently.

Don't look directly at it, or you will probably die. Not a bad episode. I'm treating this show like a Saturday Morning cartoon, so I expect nothing AMAZING for a little while. Plus I'm kinda thinking ten episodes is the time it takes for a mecha show to hit its stride.

Don't tell me that's from the actual manga??
RIP US TV syndication.
...
I want to imagine that every sentence ends with "la". lol
And honestly, it looks like if a book is popular with girls, it's more likely to get a live action adaptation because they can put pretty boy idols on screen and sell merch that much easily.
It's like the parallel tract that a manga can take. Either you go to the hardcore otaku route or the mainstream idol route.
Of course the real problem with the live action is that the second half is basically all made up stuff and the ending has to be shoehorned in by virtue of the need to properly end the series.
So many cute images.
Lol, I used to have a nicely organized iM@S folder (and my Yayoi section was massive!) but my hard drive with the images died on me. D:

Nope, never licensed in America.
It's definitely weird how it never got an anime adaptation either.
What a deep joke.

Considering she's my favorite witch from my favorite non-501st squad and also my avatar...me too.
Imagine Flit more as Amuro who doesn't internalize things and doesn't have Char to direct his anger at so instead he decides to wipe out all of Zeon.
Think it's monster of the week till late teens/early twenties. Worth it though.
ai yah lah, why you gotta make duckroll mad lah

Yeesh. I suppose it's the new "chibi art" thing then.
Apparently the boy hates the show as much as Sheen.
Hey, don't shit on the off model art in Magi. It's a big reason why it's just so charming to read through.
I wish it translated well into the anime.

I like the chibi art in Aria, so I'm not against it, but that just looks unfinished to my eyes...
I started tagging some images but gave up after a while since I have too much/I never remember most of the tags HA HA. I just remember where most stuff is and for images you have thumbnails for easy recognition.
I'm not watching Magi anymore. Does it not translate well because the scenes aren't handled well, or do you think it's just something that will never work in anime?
Edit: I'm referring to Magi's deformed, chibi-esque scenes, not chibi art in general.

Eh, it kinda worked in that scene with Alibaba pigging out on the watermelons in the first episode but that was it.
The roughness is what makes it great.
Just really out of place given how far off the art is from the norm and how infrequently its used.

None, this season is shite. You are better off watching old anime.
When you assume you make an ass out of you and me. But mostly you.
Utena is a much more coherent and better put out show. There are valid reasons to not like it, but "it's too old" is an argument I will never partake in.
Dude, I watched the filler in Nadia. Surely I can stomach two hundred episodes of stock footage.
Oh snap!

It seems that way from what I've watched thus far. It only feeds my appreciation for mech OVA over TV series. It'd be nice if the introduction episodes on a whole were better.
That's quite a few folders for a singles gallery. Character-specific too? Dang.
You should watch more 80s mecha OVAs. It's the only way to lure emmanuelmunoz back.
To be fair, it'd be pretty hard to tell the difference with the anime anyway given how shit it looks most of the time.
I concede this point.

Well, I'll never know. lol
By old I mean I don't want to watch the 26 episodes I have left (and own on DVD). I realized I can't watch TV like that anymore, unless it's something I've already seen and can half-watch.
For me, by that measure, a show from last season is "old". It's why it took ages for me to get to Friday Night Lights and Breaking Bad anyway.
Jeez. lol
The only character Flit really resembles is Ghirin Zabi, though. I mean, I guess if instead of slapping Amuro, Bright had bent down and sucked him off, I could see how Amuro would be like Flit, but Flit is frankly too evil to be compared to Amuro.
You should catch Tamako Market, although it's generally agreed upon this is a pretty slow season. Your options broaden a bit if you include shows on their second cour, in which case you can include Shin Sekai Yori and JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. Regardless, if you have a backlog, you should use these couple months to try and catch up on it.
This is firehawk we're talking about, who refused to watch Mad Men because he assumed it didn't deal with issues of racism in the 60s despite the fact that it does. Aphorisms have no effect on him

Well, yeah. It's why I won't watch Downton Abbey either. I already get my middle class white people soap opera angst on Game of Thrones, I don't need more of it.This is firehawk we're talking about, who refused to watch Mad Men because he assumed it didn't deal with issues of racism in the 60s despite the fact that it does.

Yurin/Lalah stuff was the point of divergence. You'll see a lot more about how this affected Char & Amuro when you watch Zeta and Char's Counterattack. I initially made the "carrying that shit with him forever" joke about Flit because of those two anime.

I don't know anything about Kare Kano, but I would avoid Special A. Unless you like the infuriating shoujo trope where the girl is awesome but is still somehow constantly trumped by the man who is the ultimate object of her affection.

Eh, it's actually the opposite for me because the characters are in their 30s. If I'm still in the same position then as I am now, then I'll probably feel depressed watching it.

Kare Kano most definitely, just be aware that the ending is not as conclusive as one might like.

I didn't notice the Char's Counterattack borrowing actually! I thought it was just Zeheart just getting sick of limiting his X-Rounder powers.
At least Char knew Lalah, though. Flit met Yurin twice and hated his wife of 60 years forever because of it.
Flit Asuno is the most evil villain in Gundam history. The final episode of Gundam AGE really cements it.
definitely KareKano!
Could be I'm just reading too much into it but it seemed to coincide with events too closely to not make sense.
Oh i'm looking forward to that.
