If it wasn't for the artwork for these episodes I would've dropped this show no doubt. The story is so clunky and it's frankly all over the place, and the points that they ARE showing are literally all over the place.
The decent sound-track, and the artwork for the fights are literally what keeps me from dropping this show.

Holy shit, can this adaptation get any better? The soundtrack for ep 7 was absolutely godlike with the timing.

Based Jouji Nakata. I was literally watching this listening to Sol, while imagining Kotomine Kirei's voice.
I fucking lost it at 1:02, and at 1:54 of the video. It literally gave me goosebumps and had me rolling all over my chair.
Was doing some follow up calls after submitting multiple job applications several days ago. One of them responded in such a manner;
"I'M SORRY SIR, YOU ARE ASKING ME TO CHECK YOUR JOB APPLICATION ON A SATURDAY EVENING? YOU MUST BE KIDDING.", she hangs up on me.
I call another location, and I was greeted by the sweetest of angels that confirmed and scheduled an appointment for my interview. Differences in service were clearly noticeable.

Today I decided to give blind solo-queue a shot, for the first time in several weeks. There are no words for how fucking much I hate the community. I got placed in a pre-made of 4 people. They never talked all game in team chat, and they occasionally shit talked the other team in All-chat.
Down to the climax of the match, the enemy team had 3 inhibs down, and my entire team while I was dead from the team fight, decided to line-up and recall, in front of their dying nexus while I was literally typing in all caps, "FUCKING WIN" "WTF ARE YOU GUYS DOING".
3 seconds after they recalled, Malzahar(Who was 28/4/6, 390 CS) came respawned, and literally cleared about 40 minions almost instantly and defended the nexus, they got baron before I was able to spawn, then they won, and my fucking team had the audacity to say they were going to report me for throwing the game. For fucking real this community.

Akinator is just a giant collaboration guessing game, as impressive as it is. If it can't guess the name of the character you were thinking, it saves it so that next-time you use that combination it comes up.
For instance, I did Shirogane Takeru from Muv~Luv, and he couldn't guess it, and I did it again, and he got it.

I've read this. It's packed with comedy and the artwork is pretty good too. It's similar to Addicted to Curry in a sense. The main character is an aloof but highly skilled chef, and when times matter the most he starts to show his true colors.
Definitely worth a read, not recommended for anyone who hates short, ongoing mangas though. There's literally like 20 chapters, and it may be heart breaking to wait for more. I know it was for me.

I didn't really think it needed a second season, but I'll watch it regardless.There's two light novels so....
Uh, let me remind you the anime is in no way relevant to the LNs. It was completely improvised in the Television version.
Dekomori, Touka, Kumin, were not in the LNs, and the second book was the Rikka-After story.
Anyways, I didn't want another season, but I'll watch it regardless as well, because those characters were fantastic, and Sanae had incredible development in the story.
Today, I had a Mundo, Elise, and Jarvan tower dive me as Jayce at 3:38, I came out with 2 HP, no summoners, and empty pockets, but a bag full of gold.
Jarvan was top, and Mundo was ganking me at level 2. I showed up in lane a tiny bit late because I was leashing blue, and Jarvan was pushing lane for that ExP for Lvl 2. Jarvan lands his Knock-up but only the flag hit me, Mundo comes in, and I take an ignite from J4, so I accel gate to run under tower, and hit mundo and J4 with a Shock Blast through the gate, I'm dancing around 120 HP, with pots running. Juke a cleaver under tower, flash behind Jarvan and hammer blow him INTO tower forcing him to take another shot killing him, and Mundo is currently dancing around tower with me his fire is on, so he takes tower damage, he tries to run but I chase him from my tower almost to his tower which gave my shock gate combo time to come off CD granting me a double.
Pot about to run out, I'm at about 213 HP, Elise shows up and tries to do some cheese kill bullshit under tower, She spider-forms, Rappels in, Venomous bites me, ignites me and immediately flashes out, and she realizes that I'm still alive because I used barrier on her Bites and first two ignite ticks, so she panics because she realized she fucked up and burned two summoners for no reason, then MY jungler comes knowing Elise was coming, throws his passive on her, knocks her up, and she takes a Shock Gate combo from me.
Killing Spree. At 4:35. I snowballed so hard, we won at 19:16.

Ep 5
I'm surprised at the number of people's reaction to this episode. I'm guessing they themselves have not done the honor of reading the manga, oh well. They'll be on par with us soon enough.

On ranked (S3) I've mained Vi, J4, Shyvana and Riven at jungle...But I started going again as Sejuani after her rework and she's extremely strong right now, and thanks to her I've won some games.
-BTW; does someone feel that Trundle has become somewhat OP?
He's absurdly strong right now. I've been playing him top lane, and I think what's making him so strong is his ult and his reformed W. Basically, if you're going to have a difficult time in lane, you can max W first, or max W and Q at the same time.
Just buy a vamp scepter, and literally auto attack and Q to win trades, it's pretty brain-dead to me. As if I wasn't getting enough sustain from my passive, let's up it another 10-20% easy. I also build spirit visage, So chances are nobody is dueling me and walking away from it alive, his AS buff on his W literally makes him a split pushing machine.
I can sense a nerf to his W, not sure about his ult. 40% is a pretty stupid value though even if it's at level 16.

Shingetsu Shingeki? no Kyojin - 10/10 Nuff' said.Suisei no Gargantia, pretty good. Not an action, not a mech oriented show. I don't know how to describe this show, it's not action, drama, or comedy, but at the same time it's not super serious, or too lax. It's got a good balance, and nothing's rolling just yet so we'll have time to see it develop, so far, pretty good.
7.4/10

Not bashing on the anime or anything like that. But I feel like there is too much trend these days of having a weak main character who is surrounded by stronger forces which compel him/her into action and "thrust" them into greatness. Right now, Haruto is a very weak person, naive about ARUS, lets Shoko and L-Elf manipulate him, but he has the "saving grace" of the Valvrave. This is very similar to Shu from Guilty Crown, when he really only stands out due to his power that he just happened to obtain. I'm also not saying that having a weak main character is a bad thing, like for example, would Evangelion have been half as compelling without the psychological problems faced by the weak and troubled Shinji? I'm just saying that specific characters who act like Haruto are becoming too prevalent in anime. However, we'll see about that later in the anime, as who knows what kind of changes Haruto will go through. And I swear to God, Allah, Buddha, whatever...if they make a drastic change and then just as quickly reverse it again (Yes I'm looking at you Guilty Crown), I'm going to shoot a bunny
Nope, I understand completely and I agree.
Guilty Crown, Accel World immediately come to mind(funny thing, the protag Seiyuus are the same).
This is -in my opinion- what limits them from being truly great.(Exception of Accel World, I dropped this show. The MC was annoying beyond all imagination to me because his character was weak, naive, spineless and oblivious.)
Weak characters, and power is simply bestowed upon them, and now they have a task they must resolve.
Compared to like, Chuunibyou, SAO([size=10]I still prefer the LN... but the music and the great Seiyuus made it good enough to watch start to finish, so hats off to them[/h]), PSYCHO-PASS, and Little Busters!, the characters are initially weak, but they become stronger over time. They don't become strong because it was granted to them by some outstanding and foreign force that they simply grasp, they earn it through experience, and they do it for the sake of others. The character development in these shows are phenomenal compared to others.
So far, I like Valvrave because I think the mech is pretty bad-ass. They haven't explained much on its background but the fact it uses that red light as a weapon is beyond cool for me. Plus the artwork is great.

Zac does just way too much damage. hes probably gonna be my go-to jungler for a while since Jarvan got nerfed. i once had to go against a zac support and we got destroyed. He's an unusual hybrid combination of Mundo and Amumu. Uses health as a resource but can benefit from AP(Liandry + Rylai's possibly being the best item imaginable on Zac). Not to mention he has actual ratios comared to Mundo, and his W hurts like a nightmare. Currently I build him Full tank, and if I have some spare gold I throw in a liandry / Abyssal scepter on the side.

to top it off i kind of want to play poppy but dunno how to build her or what lane to go in
Poppy in her current state is relatively weak because all champions received an MS buff, this indirectly nerfed her. Currently I play Poppy as a "Counter" pick in two situations;
1) No brainer counters(Vi, Tryndamere, Gangplank, Malphite, Zed, Rengar, Nasus)
2) Skill match-ups (Irelia, Jarvan IV, Wukong, Lee Sin, Riven, Kha'Zix, Nasus, Renekton)
This could get long winded, but I absolutely love Poppy.
Spoiler:
I've seen some people try to jungle Poppy with little to no avail, my heart weeps. Note I'm actually rereading and editing along as I go, I tend to get carried away and miss a detail or nine.

While we're on the topic of L-Elf...Spoiler:
Everytime I hear A-drei scream "L-elf" he sounds like someone trying to clear his throat in a very violent manner and it always makes me giggle on the inside.
I'm genuinely in love with Jayce as a champion; full-on homo.
He's easily the most perfect champion with a dual-kit in league.
He packs, tons of AOE damage, and amazing poke damage. He has incredible dueling power, and extraordinary team fight presence. He has displacement CC, AOE slow, AS & AD Steroid, Team Speed Boost, and armor shred.
His passive is literally --in my opinion-- the only thing keeping him from being over-powered. It's not unnoticeable as a passive, but it's not completely overwhelming as one either, it synergizes with his kit perfectly, and it's mighty useful.
I could talk forever about how I feel about Jayce, but I'm being overcome by
Even got to play a premade 5s vs my friend's 5s. They're all ranging from Platinum III --> Diamond IV. I beat their Renekton top(miserably) even after subsequent ganks, and then their Caitlynn + Janna(was farmed and fed at this point). They literally jaw dropped when they heard I was Bronze I. They won of course, my premade lost out because of our weaker picks. By the way, Barrier on Jayce is significantly better than ignite, and I highly suggest anyone that plays him to pick it up.
