Some of its episodes are just downright odd but for some reason I liked those the most as they were memorable. If you want a story to make sense you shouldn't come in with high expectations. However its rather slow paced and its pay off isn't as high as I would like. I would rate it a 7.5 Its not bad and certainly has its charms but if I could go back in time and invest the time I spent watching that show in another show I would do so. If you watched all the "top tier" animes and want something different its a decent option.

I know its going to be cringey as fuck but i wanna swing by for a laugh. Not worth the $10 entry fee.

Results ended up as Parasyte: 3, Yona of the Dawn: 18 :suicide: Then we went to a 24/7 pancake joint and I had the pleasure of experiencing the entire .hack franchise in under forty minutes, by sitting across from this turboneck who just word-spewed without interruption except to shovel more food in his talk-hole. This was after he had given a detailed outline of every Tiger & Bunny character and their powers

(Any of these categories, not all of them lol)

[QUOTE=The Aussie;47729843]Ah yes, "the talk." [editline]16th May 2015[/editline] I really love Joshiraku but i feel like the fact i have to rely on subs and my knowledge of Japanese pop culture is moderate at best causes me to miss out on roughly a third of the jokes. Although it's still hilarious otherwise, just goes to show how well written it is.[/QUOTE] If you're interested in what some of the jokes and references mean, you could always read the [URL="http://notredrevie.ws/?s=joshiraku"]translator's blog[/URL] for the different episodes. It has some pretty interesting insight on the difficulties of translation.

[QUOTE=Orkel;47729734]watching anime on youtube (ﾉ￣д￣)ﾉ added you on steam, it's time to give you the talk, boy[/QUOTE] I watch most of my anime on Crunchyroll (mostly because it lets me watch on mobile while at work). Do I need the talk too?

Nisekoi is unabashedly a harem anime. It's just one harem scenario after another, no matter how unlikely the scenario is. It moves fast enough for the characters to reflect on the events but not too fast to appeal only to people with an attention span of a toddler. Also the characters have some form of memory so the scenarios do not seem as isolated as in other harem anime.

Got off my ass and finished Biomega while looking for updates in general for the manga I'm reading. I don't get why a story of this magnitude and scope was compressed into 6 volumes. What the fuck was Nihei thinking? By the final pages it's succeeded in going from 3005 C.E. to sometime later in 3005 C.E. to 4005 C.E. to 4405 C.E. all the way back to 3005 C.E. in 42 chapters. That's fucking ridiculous yo. Good read otherwise.

Just watched [url]http://myanimelist.net/anime/759/Tokyo_Godfathers[/url] Go watch it its fucking great. Pacing is fucking amazing and the characters are fucking brilliant. EDIT: Sure its late but even a massive weaboo like me has managed to miss it so far. Better nate then lever right?

[QUOTE=LoNer1;47730069]Exactly. I'm now going on an ecchi / harem / fantasy / action spree with my girl. (Any of these categories, not all of them lol)[/QUOTE] Well there is heavy romantic tension. Action is relatively sparse though but when its done its done relatively well from what I recall. Its more tense then guns blazing though.

[QUOTE=Orkel;47730507]Stink Bomb is boss as well[/QUOTE] They're all great, Satoshi only helped making magnetic rose tho is what i meant.

new jojo ep polnareff really could of made use of armor take off

jojo: [sp]NOOOO[/sp]

tbh I really liked Ergo Proxy, for me it was kind of hard to follow after episode 17 and the ending was strange but I really loved the show and character progression. I don't marathon shows very often but I think I completed that one over a day and a half. 8.5/10

[QUOTE=Orkel;47730507]Stink Bomb is boss as well[/QUOTE] I loved Paprika OST. The music was so fucking godlike. [video=youtube;yx9RgTiIKDE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yx9RgTiIKDE[/video]

If you liked Memories I would also recommend two other anime anthology movies [url=http://myanimelist.net/anime/1951/Manie-Manie:_Meikyuu_Monogatari]Neo Tokyo[/url] [url=http://myanimelist.net/anime/2182/Robot_Carnival]Robot Carnival[/url]

[url=http://myanimelist.net/anime/3508/Genius_Party]Genius Party[/url] and [url=http://myanimelist.net/anime/6795/Genius_Party_Beyond]Genius Party Beyond[/url] are also something worth checking out.

damn that new jojo episode was super intense, the wait for next week is going to be really tough

saber lion > every other typemoon character

Rose of Versailles is a good thing
