The Official "MyGaming" Anime Thread

I decided to watch Tokyo Ghoul seeing as it is being mentioned in many places....oh my word, I love it!! Bring on episode 2!!
 
Never made it through the first season - so I doubt I'll be picking up season 2.

In any case, here are the results of the vote for the Spring 2014 shows - I'm a bit disappointed by the general lack of interest by the local anime fan community, but I promised to post it, so here it is:

I wish I had known about the voting, I would have voted.

I am not so sure about Fairy Tail taking first place - I felt the anime started off well, it went up a little, then went down (with the small mini fights).

How could FT qualify? it's not a new show anymore it just continued from where the first part ended off.

It's basically being treated as a new series - or a sequel - by pretty much everybody. It's the same for every sequel, really. So, in order to be fair, I had to include it.

I tried DRAMAtical Murder. Oh my what a crock of shite.

Treins. Bewbs. Shima-pantsu. ;)

lol ... DRAMAtical Murder is based on a BL game - I'm not sure what you were expecting xD

As for Rail Wars - it seems like they're going relatively easy on the fan-service - apart from incredible boob-physics in one or two scenes, I haven't seen any panty-shots.

As a matter of fact, this particular season is incredibly fan-service FREE! - so far :p

I dropped a link in the thread, but next time I'll post reminders - I had the poll up for a week.

As for FT - well, it points to one of the big shortcomings of the local anime community for me - if it's not mainstream, people won't pay attention to it. 11 votes I had to discard, because people added shows like Bleach, Naruto and Dragonball Z.

That's why shows like SnK and SAO do so well - they go mainstream quickly, because they are easy to digest. And then you get shows like Accel World - same author - but precious few locals know about it.

I was surprised to see Black Bullet in 3rd place - there were quite a few shows that I thought were much more deserving of making it into the top 5 - Knights of Sidonia, Isshuukan Friends, or Bokuratachi wa Minna Kawaisou, for example. Black Bullet was .... okay'ish ... I enjoyed it for what it was worth, but ... yeah. It wasn't particularly outstanding.

Just giving you a heads-up that a second season of Psycho Pass is in the works. Due to air in October, if I have my facts straight.

If you guys want - I'll start posting links to my previews here when I do them - I'll probably start previewing fall shows sometime towards the end of August. There are one or two (apart from Psycho Pass) that I'm already keeping an eye on.

AFAIK Psycho pass season 2 is season 1 with extra footage that was cut. It's going to be a aired monthly with 1 hour episodes.

***EDIT
unless there is a whole new S2 that I did not know about like Durarara!

You're confusing the Psycho Pass Re-edit (which is the one you're referring to) which is airing as of now, with season 2, which will start airing in October

At the 2014 Noitamina Lineup Presentation on March 21, the following media expansions for the Psycho-Pass 2 project were announced:
・July 2014 - New edited version of Psycho-Pass will air during Fuji TV’s Noitamina
・October 2014 - Psycho-Pass 2 will begin airing during Fuji TV’s Noitamina
・Winter 2014 - Psycho-Pass the Movie will have a countrywide roadshow release

It's basically a reverse of what they did with Break Blade last season (they took the 6 movies and turned them into a 12 episode series with some new footage squished in at places), but for all intents and purposes it's just a rerun.

Ah okay I see so the re-edit is the 1 hour specials that are airing now and season 2 will be in october. (unreliable reddit /r/anime xD)

/r/anime is great to get hold of news sometimes - but usually I have to dig into the comments quite a bit to get the full story.

Some posts are karma whoring with a catchy title and little to no detail. then you got to sift through the 900+ meme induced upvoted comments that have nothing to do with the actual article, yet I love it. It abuses me every time and I keep coming back. I should start using ANN and MAL more often to get more detail.

Just bought this DLC for KZ:SF, best purchase ever!

Without googling so far I recognize the voiced of Kenpachi (Bleach), Char Aznable (MSG)| Shanks (One Piece), Jiraiya (Naruto) | Kite (Hunter X Hunter), Akainu (One Piece), Motoko (GITS) and Joseph Joestar (Jo Jo's) can't put my fingers on the other characters though.

Yeah - it really irks me when they do that. But at the same time I don't want to wait until the BluRay releases, so I guess I'll keep watching.

Destroys the immersion though.

Wish they would go back to 12pm/am airing, where the original would be shown at a normal hour then the uncut version would be shown at a later date very late at night.
 
I seriously hope No game no life gets a second Season. The way they ended it was freaking terrible.

It's like:
"Hey guys here's something awesome, different and addictive for you to enjoy."
Then, "PSYCH! Now spend the next few months in suspense!".

It's like giving cocaine to someone and then tying them to a pole until they get over the addiction.
I hate it when anime's end like that. They can at least make an ending that gives some satisfaction.
It's Just cruel when you end on a cliffhanger dammit!

To make matters worse it was adapted by MADHOUSE, which have a record of leaving some series unfinished to promote the manga.
I've begun looking for every video-game related anime I can find to satisfy my addiction, Log Horizon is helping somewhat but it's just not the same.

/rant.

I still think NGNL is not that brilliant, it's good but that is all. I will admit it was quite unique but it is not top 100 best anime of all time material. Also NGNL seemed like it was parodying other animes more than games it self, most of the games played dave the final and battle with Jibril were are all based on real world counterparts, being chess, chouji, checkers, Go and various card games.

Started on Terror in Resonance, Watanabe seems to like to play things slowly it has got my interest so I will continue to watch.
