They typically are going off some information given to them by the company for things like this. It's not like they actually know what they're talking about in most cases.

I never get the 'thank the Lord' stuff. No all mighty being decided you were better than everyone else and saved you from a disaster. You were lucky, the end. Definitely amusing seeing that lady do that to him.

The uncanny valley makes it too unwatchable for me. They should have just made it live action.

Probably not for a while. Even at 4 million subs it'd still be quite profitable. Rift always was just kinda 'hanging on'.

My main issue with this layout is how much of a pain it is cycling through comments.

I've found that a lot of people feel the need to announce what they are or expect some kind of special treatment/attention.

The ending was kinda meh but Psycho Pass, Shinsekai Yori and Zetsuen no Tempest at least made up for the very lackluster Winter anime season.

Yea I misread that as several hundred years earlier.

Sounds like it'd then have a lot more fantasy elements than the current one already does since that was when magic and dragons were at full power. Be pretty interesting to see.

I think it's for some of the things here: http://consumerist.com/tag/google/

So it lets you make the city actually be the size of a city and not a tiny little square? Neat.
