Damnit I just finished Phantom ~Requiem for the Phantom~ only to discover that its source material is a VN. I mean it wasn't bad (season 1 finale sucks balls though) but I vastly prefer VN's generally. I did like what they did with the ending though.
Overall its a pretty decent anime although it never truly hooked me in. However if you want a decent action show while eating brunch and you have already watched the top tier animes then its alright.
Phantom of Inferno for those that wish to avoid my mistake.
Euphonium is hands down the prettiest anime i've ever watched.

Apparently the only english language release of the vn is in a literal dvd menu format though

this fucking game
That's some pretty high praise for UFO that I'm surprised by. The character designs and art style are nice and all but the animation and art quality doesn't really blow me away and while the backgrounds are very well drawn the photorealism doesn't really wow me.
I suppose I prefer more stylised anime, or at least more interesting environments than generic Japanese city and stock anime locations.

i think i'll stick to whomp
I am not fond of Romance anime, or any Romance in media (movies, music, shows, etc) but fuck Mikakunin de Shinkoukei was really damn good, it wasn't purely Romance, it was 50 comedy (Slice of Life) and 50 Romance. And it didn't make me cringe once which is a first.
Also it's adorable as hell.

I hope there is a Season 2.

Also [sp]I was poking fun at it by thinking it was going to turn out to be one of those Romance anime where the interest isn't an actual human, and I started to say that they were actually dogs........My face when it was spot on.[/sp]

Wait so is it "these two are dating" romance or "these two like each other but don't reveal it to each other for most/until the end" type of romance?

Neither, basically it's an Arranged Marriage anime where the two MC characters don't know each other. [sp]But they actually do from their childhood but the main character had an accident which made her lose her memory of most of her childhood.[/sp]
Meh, sounds boring. Does it have anything else going on?
[QUOTE=dcdcdc;47815844]Meh, sounds boring. Does it have anything else going on?[/QUOTE]
It's funny, the art is neat. That's all it has going on for it.
An alright timewaster.
[QUOTE=dcdcdc;47815844]Meh, sounds boring. Does it have anything else going on?[/QUOTE]
It's funny, technically it's more Slice of Life than Romance.
60 SOL, 40 Romance? I dunno.
Ah I guess. I have it on my PTW. I'll probably watch it someday.
[QUOTE=dcdcdc;47815844]Meh, sounds boring. Does it have anything else going on?[/QUOTE]
it's a slice of life 4koma anime with a slight bit more romance then a normal pure comedy 4koma, but that's it.

I dunno dude, Kyoto isn't very "Generic Japanese City" to me.
[QUOTE=The Aussie;47815960]I dunno dude, Kyoto isn't very "Generic Japanese City" to me.[/QUOTE]
The point is that even a very good looking picturesque Japanese city with lots of nice scenery doesn't impress me as much as another location might.

He's good with the comedies, full-serious shows is where he falls flat.

I like Mikakunin, it's a humorous, fun show with cute girls doing cute things. Hoping for S2.

this fucking game[/QUOTE]
I bought a physical copy of that game on release day and the girl at the counter said really loudly "AKIBAS TRIP, HUH? GONNA LOOK AT THEM ANIME PANTIES?" and it was the greatest moment of my life
I've had bad subtitles but this takes the cake

I'm still confused on how Akiba's Trip is still being sold on shelves in my country when they ban a bunch of "inappropriate" stuff left and right
