Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the P2:IS(PSP) "censorship" was also in the JP version. So it wouldn't be Atlus USA's fault.


Huh? I never heard that. Where'd you hear that? I mean, it would certainly change things.
If you can find me an article or something saying it was in the Japanese version first then I'll gladly delete the note about P2P. I'd appreciate it, mate.

My old laptop's motherboard bit the dust, so I've been playing this quite a bit. My Fighter beat Infernal Ancient Dragon today, so I just need to max his level then go on the LoC runs. My Elf has started Infernal, and my four other characters have started Hard.

Be careful of bones you pick up online. Some contain hacked equipment that could freeze your game if you obtain one through burying.
Episode 5:
Spoiler:
Good episode. Good arc. It's going to be hard to do anything with Tsubasa as the main focus again though since this arc wrapped up pretty much all of her problems. Araragi finally did something that didn't involve his ass getting kicked... likely because it was violently kicked around earlier.
I'm disappointed that the rainbow swimsuit wasn't chosen. Blue just isn't FABULOUS enough.

I know I'm a little late, but did we really have another episode in the Index universe almost solely dedicated to that bridge scene? Fuck that damn bridge!


I've been away for some time so could you please tell me what bridge scene your talking about?


Most of episode 12(?) of Index and most of episode 14 of Railgun S. There is a lot of talking that just so happens to occur on a bridge.
Episode 5:
Spoiler:
This anime is sure loads of WAT. That case Madoka was wearing was actually holding her kitchen utensil and has a voice like a Nanoha-style magical device. Except it's a double-bladed chainsaw... and a cannon... whose shots can be blocked and cut in half by a pair of scissors! This series just can't find its happy medium between seriousness and comedy can it?

So, it failed and tanked as expected.

BD release was canceled 2 days before the date. Nico2 only confirmed 52 per-orders.
Another anime that experienced this was "Shangri-La", which canceled releases due to the low number of orders. Only releasing the full box set months later.

But the funny thing is, I'm currently being flamed in MAL for stating a fact. lol


Another Shangri-La? Woooooooowwwww. I expected it to turn out bad, but not quite that badly. Also, stop posting on MAL, Kaimax. You might just get irritated again.

Edit: But if you do get irritated, you can always read ANN's review of the series for a good laugh.

7th OVA:
Spoiler:
The dried squid plot thickens. And I have no idea how long this subplot will continue.
Episode 1:
Spoiler:
Pretty good episode. It's certain now that this is mainly aimed at the fujoshis out there. (Sure is an odd style of OP for that market though.) We were almost fortunate enough to go a full episode without any skinny dipping, but I guess KyoAni just couldn't resist. Well, there are cute girls, too. And it's an adaptation and not an original series, so it's got that going for it as well.

Also, being called Nagisa is a death flag if I've ever seen one.
Episode 13:
Spoiler:
So it turns out Chamber was the main character all along. Joking aside, Chamber and Ledo were really the only characters that got some development. Most everyone else got all their character development shoved in a single episode or were otherwise static throughout the series. The romance angle wasn't developed well enough for it to be turning point where Chamber kicks Ledo out. I also find it funny how the whalesquids formerly being humans was quickly swept under the rug. And somehow Ledo now can tell when whalesquids are getting angry. How has no one else figured that out before?

In the end, it was an okay show that didn't do anything particularly offensive.
Episode 12:
Spoiler:
I'm satisfied with the episode, but not satisfied with it as being the ending of the season. Young Youto being the culprit makes sense as well as explaining Youto's memory issues. It also makes the end of the episode make sense as the best way to prevent forgetting things is to spend time with everyone. Although he "chose" Tsukiko, it didn't seem like he had really decided on a girl for certain. Also, Tsukasa sure got better all of a sudden.

Tsukiko and Azusa have a case of sudden animal tails. And sudden bunny on the glass.

A pretty good series with Yui Ogura's performance as Tsukiko being really amazing to me.
Episode 13:
Spoiler:
The weirdest episode to end a season on. And it doesn't even connect to the previous episode at all. It is also weird since I think this episode is supposed to make Kirino more sympathetic, but it makes everything that happened in the past her fault when we were thinking it was Kyousuke's fault. It's even Kirino's fault that Ayase was averse to otakus in the first place. You have to make a pretty angry face to scare Ayase.

Also, Manami trolls to prove she's the best girl.
Episode 12:
Spoiler:
Time skip again. But Saki looks different? And that kid... was he Saki's descendent? L-Elf's? A very good way of dodging the marriage question. No one is helped if the reason is merely "responsibility" and Saki doesn't blame Haruto for what happened nor does she fearful of him. Granted, Saki still isn't all that pleased, but she seems to realize that it's better than making everyone miserable. I'm glad L-Elf wasn't portrayed as being completely surprised by Cain's actions, though he was surprised by the poison gas and stuff. Shoko doesn't wind up dead and Akira winds up as the pilot, as a number of people expected. I really liked how Akira's scene worked out. Her uneven tone of voice and near hyperventilation really drove home just how strongly her trauma was keeping her there. Her resignation as a human being perhaps makes the most sense out of the five. If VVV2 could only be activated by inserting Blue, then that makes me wonder how did VVV3-6 get formed without an OS-tan. Code Geass-level season cliffhanger though.

It didn't wrap up at all, though. There's still plenty left that hasn't been answered or even really addressed yet. And I'd say that there's a pretty good chance for a season two judging by the ending.


Okay, my bad. It was some terrible phrasing on my part. I meant that where and how the anime concluded was pretty good for not being an actual ending. Also, let me reiterate, the ending has little to do with if there's going to be a 2nd season. If there was a second season, they would have explicitly said so while showing those scenes (like Date A Live did). So it's up to the BD/DVD sales as usual.
A decent series for what it was. Things did seem to be wrapped up a little too nicely.

13 - Season 2 is coming


Unless I've missed something, there isn't going to be.
Spoiler:
Are you referring to the scenes in the credits? I believe that's just showing some stuff that will happen in the manga. And considering anime adaptations act as commercials for the originals, this is likely the case. Although I must say that I wonder why most adaptations don't try to do such scenes in the ending credits.
Episode 11:
Spoiler:
And it gets even more unusual (not surreal though). So we are back in the past, but it isn't how people remember it. In fact, Young Youto is the one being friendly with the mom and getting his height taken. Steel hasn't been around for a long time and seemingly hates her mother. It looks like this means that someone made a wish to change their memories. The cat god's wishes are not completely solid; it's why we get things like Youto realizing the school had been changed. Right now, I'm thinking that it was the mother that made that wish. Other suspects include Young Youto and Young Tsukiko.
I thought Rina had huge breasts, but seeing the "chest comparison" at the train station, I can't help but be amazed at the size of the teacher's chest. She could kill someone with those.

Meh, at least you gave it a shot. But why not just finish it since you already started it anyways?


I think he'd have a hard time going through 17 more episodes.

but im hoping the pacing speeds up a bit.


I doubt it. And now that we, as the audience, are used to seeing man-eating giants and talks about "humanity", "walls", and "survival" this shows need to do something other than just threatening us with more titans in my opinion.
