I am now of the Order of the Black. Thou art a kind god UnspeakableCutness.

As it should be! How else are we going to protect to the world from devastation and unite all people within our nation?

I think American Football is stupid in general, but I have a deepset craving at the moment to play Madden.

This is incredible. Thank you for showing this.

Anyone should have thrown Shyamalan in a volcano. I consider it a public service, nay a public duty.

Born-again ghosts eat comedic bureaucrats for the good of Japan.

Mutant aliens transform into powerful cyborgs to fulfil a legend.

Cursed Shinto priests get medieval on furry robot pilots because of an ancient curse.

Sinister mecha betray giant ghosts because of an ancient curse.

Horny hitmen go skiiing with confused…

Despite my love of women, this is the second time this year after Conchita Wurst that I'm strangely attracted to a man with a beard in a dress. I think it's the hair.

It is the crux of the series/manga. Otherwise everything would be grim-dark and depressing.

I seriously think MegaCloyster needs to happen.

Apparently Kantai and Arpeggio collaborated during the anime's run and I read somewhere that Arpeggio's future is tied to Kantai's success.

I loved Arpeggio too and it looks like the CGI animation has (albeit by a different company) improved greatly in the last few months.

Oh yes, I completely understand, as I too am a Brynhildr manga fan.

I think a lot of the problem is that anime adaptations these days seem to largely serve as a tool for manga promotion rather than a cohesive entity unto itself (and thus it is ironic when they butcher the source material).

The CGI actually looks amazingly good; pretty excited for this.

Yeah I know; the Brynhildr adaptation is awful purely because of them condensing and dropping key character moments in favour of more trivial material. I dropped it after the fourth episode.

I was mainly responding to the statement "The original manga is better. Again.", which I believe is more the rule than the…

To be honest, it's quite rare for an anime adaptation to exceed the manga unless the execution of the manga itself is subpar or the anime adds to the concept and style of the manga by virtue of being animated. Chihayafuru is an example of the latter that springs to mind.

Aldnoah is great and well-executed, but I have a feeling that it might become a little cliché at the rate things are going, despite Urobuchi being involved. Also, the characters are seriously underdeveloped.

Zankyou no Terror is utterly gripping, though I am mainly watching for Shibazaki.

Nozaki-Kun enters the fray.

Well, I guess we know the S&M theme of the official Pokemon hentai...

No, Diplomacy makes you hate your friends. Monopoly reminds you to thank God every night that your family aren't your landlords.

I have seen the future.

There it is in writing. Nui's awesomeness = over 9000

Also, I could do with a Nui and Satsuki-centric prequel detailing exactly how Satsuki rose to power (in between recruiting the Elite Four) and her rivalry with Nui over the years. Nui loves Satsuki and Ryuko, but she's just fighting for her mother's affection and is…
