Yes, and I disagree, we need to have a discussion to validate it actually being true and not just being a few people that remember wrong, missunderstood the genre or are frankly retarded.
It happens that people vote for something in a completely wrong category, and that needs to be fixed and they need to be allowed to re-vote, letting a different show take the spot that actually deserves it for meeting the criteria.

This is the truth. You shouldn't just accept the truth as it is though, you need to challenge it.
Anything worth watching this season besides parisyte, shingeki no bahamut and the ghibli show?
So I finally got around to watching Kaiji, and while I'm enjoying it a lot, there's one part that confuses me. [sp]The part where Kaiji and the others have to cross the electrified steel beams suspended a couple dozen stories above the ground. It's mentioned that if they touch the beam with anything but the rubber sole of their shoe, they'll get electrocuted. I admit my understanding of electricity isn't the greatest, but wouldn't at least one part of their body need to be grounded in order for the electricity to have any effect?[/sp]

Thanks, these half asses subs started to annoy the fuck out of me. Luckily most of the stuff that was lost because of shitty timing and stuff was simple phrases I could understand or figure out via context.

I have returned to FA after a year or so hiatus. LoL is too easy and RL is too hard.
I havent seen anime regularly since Kill la Kill was released.
(fall 2013)

SoL shit (unless its godlike levels aka Aria)

my tastes usually include either romance or an OP characters (and could you guess? my favorite animes are code geass/katanagatari/toradora/steins;gate)
pls ty. i shall buy you responders $1 of whatever in return :%)

shinsekai yori never felt like a horror to me, it always seemed far more of a psychological thriller, nothing in it was really "scary", just kind of unsettling, like a thriller.
but what do i know i voted for it in psychological cause im dum

you're actually watching that cgifest ghibli thing?
[QUOTE=dgg;46396061]This is where you explain why you think it's thriller, not where you bow down and just accept it.
It matters, because you shouldn't go into a show expecting action and then get a slapstick comedy.[/QUOTE]
Well I mean HeroicPillow said it, but I thought it was a thriller because [sp]the characters keeping themselves alive against fiends and queerats I found to be suspenseful. Also them learning about the nature of their society and its history.[/sp]
[editline]edit[/editline]
Also I don't really see anything wrong with my other votes either. I liked those shows for those reasons.

Okay. I watched the latest Grisaia episode. I'll admit I teared up a bit, but it wasn't nearly as good as the route from the VN.
As a big fan of the VN and Michiru's route (the first route that they adapted in the anime), I was furious. They skipped out entirely on a bunch the things that made this route so emotional. [sp]Like the story behind her friend that committed suicide. They touched on it in the anime, but only very briefly. Or the conversation the other Michiru had with her mother in America and the message she gives her mother.[/sp]
But what irritated me the most was the [sp]coffin[/sp] scene. It was done alright, at least for the anime, and it worked for the anime version because of all the details that were left out, but in the VN it was much, much longer and one of the most emotional scenes in that route, and even in the entire story. [sp]There were supposed to be a bunch of notes left by the other girls, all messages to the supposedly dead Michiru, telling her that they were going to miss her and how wonderful of a friend she was to them. There was a scene before the burial with them leaving the notes in her coffin as Yuuji was leaving with Michiru's body. It full of emotional, everyone reacting in different ways to the news of her 'death'.[/sp] Leaving that part out ruined the adaptation of this route, at least in my opinion.
Yumiko's route is next because the name of the next episode is the VN's name for the first scene of her route. I figured they would get Michiru and Sachi's routes out of the way first, maybe Makina's as well though hers would probably be longer than a few episodes, then give Amane and Yumiko both several episodes for their routes.
I don't know, this adaptation feels like it's turning into a huge mess, at least from a VN readers perspective. It might be alright in the fresh eyes of someone who knows nothing about the VN, but even then it's just alright.
[QUOTE=dgg;46395976]Can you please for the love of god tell me what this has to do with the poor writing and dumb shit going on with the officers in ep3 and 4?
This is highly irrelevant to the discussion we were having and I have no idea why you are insisting on discussing the public which had nothing to do with the stupidity shown in ep3-4. The public did nothing stupid, the officers did.[/QUOTE]
Objectively stupid. They did the right thing according to Sibyl when they [sp]killed the civilians[/sp].
You keep saying what they did is stupid and doesn't make sense. But you keep ignoring the fact that in Psycho-Pass, Sibyl is the definition of sense and the correct way to do things.

Ping Pong the Animation
No Game No Life
White Album 2
Shigatsu wa Kimi no Uso (ongoing, could turn to shit)
probably outside of your comfort zone but still relevant somewhat:
Aldnoah.Zero
Noragami (not the best thing ever but something to watch at least)
Tonari No Seki-kun
Zankyou No Terror
Hitsugi no Chaika
the rest are sequels to stuff that you should've already seen if you cared, like mushishi/genshiken/jojo/monogatari

Ok now that I'm able to read the actual synopsis it seems it's taking a new direction.
still kinda wish they did The Comet Empire story(the highest point of the franchise imo) for series 2 of 2199 (if they ever do a Series 2)

Better question is: why the hell have you not seen Shinsekai yori?
And yes i back it up as thriller of course, since that's what it was.

The problem isn't even that the in-universe actions seem stupid, it's that the writing that makes the stuff happen is so forced. It doesn't develop, you can basically see where they go "and then, to advance the plot, this thing happens".
Explaining and/or handwaving things with the Sybil system often doesn't really work either.

You keep saying that what they did wasn't stupid just because Sibyl told them to do so, as if nobody is questioning the system to begin with (which they sure as fuck did after Tsunemori worked on some cases in S1).
They have always been human beings, they have been aware of what they've been doing, and been proper officers that needed to know what the situation was before they did any rash decisions unless given a command by the person in command to shoot on sight. Most cases of shoot then ask presented in S1 has been with individual culprits which have already commited a crime of some sort, they were already known beforehand by the officers to be "in the wrong", Tsunemori was just against it because she saw the human in them where everyone else would ignore it over the judgement of Sibyl. They were already criminals, just not necessarily rightfully so.
In S2 we have [sp]a group of civilians locked inside with an officer they can't reach and they shoot blindly into the goddamn thing (as the fucking thing is opening up again, allowing them to get visuals instead of blindshooting) and just shoot the civilians, not even questioning the reason for their psycho-pass rating, unwilling to figure out what went on in there. They don't even give a fuck that they have an officer in there, or react to the fact that there are actually nobody in there without a clouded hue meaning something really bad must be going on since even their own goddamn officer is clouded. Their psycho-pass was clearly clouded from the stress levels which they themselves ignored doing anything about, and then they just shoot them despite knowing that they are just civilians that were put in a bad situation that caused the cloudiness.[/sp]
It's stupid because it ignores every critical piece of thought any human being could have, and we have for fucking sure seen in season 1 that the officers are human beings that know how to asses a situation before jumping to rash conclusions, and even more so, keep their cool and not panick, so acting on emotions rather than reason is certainly unfit.
I think it's equally stupid of you to accept any and all actions they do because "Sibyl told them so", that is exactly the scapegoat mechanic they are trying to abuse. They aren't applying human emotions or thought to the characters because they are so focused on forcing the story down your throat. Psycho-Pass was great because there was a constant struggle between "the right thing" and"what Sibyl said was the right thing", and neither side was painted as neither good nor bad. S2 tries to just paint Sibyl as a bad overlord that shouldn't exist and fuck anyone for listening to it, our future shouldn't be like that, wake up sheeple. It's seriously just shitting all over S1.

he's telling you to watch season 2 because it's airing right now
although you've probably already checked to see what's airing currently
to see if there's any continuations of shows you liked
i may as well add Log Horizon onto my recommendation list if you aren't watching that, although i think it started in fall 2013 as well so you probably already watched that.
but season 2 of it is current airing so it's the same situation as chaika

Trust me, it pretty much fits the Wikipedia description of "supernatural thriller".
Because come on, you've got [sp]children being mauled to death by leopards if they're not good enough psychics, children stranded in a war between mutant rats,[/sp] and [sp]a mutant rat uprising that has people dying left and right.[/sp]
You can't put that shit in the same category as Clannad, Kanon, and Chihayafuru. It's like putting Gargantua in Laid Back just because a few of the episodes are setting up a peaceful life on the ship.
I'd like to see dgg defend a nomination he made for a category without it lining up with the categories via ANN/MAL. While unlikely that dgg would end up in that situation, I'd be interested to see what double-standards he could pull to make his one fit in neatly or if he'd simply charge forward while his argument falls to pieces.
