Animu thread for the fall! You Are Delicious!

Regulus Tera · 08-21-2010, 12:30 AM

On the one hand, the GAINAX show is by the Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann team. On the other hand, what the fuck, GAINAX?

Everything else looks like crap. Hey, Ironman! Too bad I don't like Ironman. I guess I'll just watch the Shaft show.

So did I miss anything? Last programme I watched was endlesseighaguh

I'll probably end up watching both Shaft shows, but I'm really not sold on the idea of a second season of Arakawa. First season was great, but the second to last episode was a lot weaker than it ought to be, and didn't resolve the main plot thread well at all.

You Are Delicious! sounds adorable enough I might check it out.

I'll probably check out Star Driver (because I like Bones), Panty and Stocking (I like mayhem in my cartoons), The World Only God Knows (I liked the first chapter of the comic and have heard good things), and Bakuman (I love Bakuman). Bakuman better have the funny faces. It will be a failure of an adaptation if the faces are omitted.

Letter Bee's name is in complete opposition to the awesomeness of that little art pic there or the seemingly promising premise, since Letter Bee sounds incredibly wussy...this seems to be a trend.

EDIT: Blargh, never mind, everything sounds horrible to me as usual. I've liked something like ten anime in the past ten years so it's not surprising.

Julford Hajime · 08-21-2010, 02:20 AM

I'm of the opinion that Bones can do no wrong, AND it's a mech show, so I'll keep my eyes open for Star Driver (Though I'll probably wait to see how /m/'s reception to it is before I check it out).

Arakawa was odd, and I have a hard time finishing season 1, let alone starting on season 2.

Panty and Stocking sounds just crazy enough to be what I need, but then again I said that about Arakawa and UGH I just realized that the reason I didn't like Arakawa is because it presented everything like it was normal with practically no energy in it. So long as Panty and Stocking is high-octane bouncing off the wall, I should be entertained.

And I liked the Ironman movies, but know little to nothing about him outside those movies. Probably won't check out the anime unless it's like WTFAWESOME.

Other then Battle Spirits Brave and maybe Star Driver. I'm not seeing anything that catches my interests. So many new anime yet so few of them seem even remotely interesting.

I am going to check out Digimon Season 6 though. Can't believe I let that sneak past me.

EDIT: On second thought, kinda want to see Fortune Asterial: Red Promise, Letter Bee: Reverse, and maybe Sora no Otoshimono.

Have you read the comics in Newtype, Julford? 'Cause P&S+G seems pretty zany from those. Zany with sex jokes.

Eureka Seven movie.

Yes I know I used to say positive things about it. That's all in the past.

Bakuman is written by the duo that did Death note, sure it's not a thriller, but they know how to make stuff dramatic. The manga is awesome, I bet the anime will be to.

The World God Only Knows keeps me reading for some reason, so I'll probably check it out.

I'm excited about Index season 2. I don't know why, but I liked the first and I hear the light novels get good.

I'll probably watch the bones one too.

Considering the only thing Im watching right now is Hero Man, this is a good thing.

That's the one where I saw scans of the writer guy explaining to artist guy that it's dumb for girls to get good grades and smart girls just get average marks and look pretty?
