I'm afraid I only skimmed the article in order to state that the existence of Kelsey Grammer as a perfect (or entirely neurotic) Frasier Crane allowed for the existence of David Hyde-Pierce as Niles Crane. This mere fact counters any wrong Kelsey Grammar may commit in his self-aggrandising autobiography. When the gods…

Britta's Britta'd her hair, but Gillian Jacobs pulls it off.

Jokes seem solid.

Honest Trailer's Jon Bailey!

BRING ON THE MOVIE!

If I recall correctly, Yvette's father is unfortunately pretty ill and so she's left to take care of him.

Steins; Gate, which you apparently haven't seen (or don't remember), and must now watch immediately for the sake of this world line and the next. ;)

Explorers of Time and Darkness (and presumably Sky) honestly have some of the best plotting Pokemon has ever done. Definitely worth playing if you liked Gates.

My parents had a fairly catastrophic wedding day:

My uncle managed to slice up his hand on a fan (no idea how) on the morning of the wedding and so my mum and her family had to take him to the hospital to be bandaged up. There was only one car, dad was picking up his parents from the station, and traffic was awful, so…

Fuck Andou and Tomoyo. I hated their self-absorbed attitudes, particularly after Hatoko's breakdown and their generally callous and uncomprehending responses. By the end of the series, I just wanted Hatoko and company to seal them away in their own delusional dimension and join the auxiliary crew who were far more…

Without any of the panache that made KLK KLK...The visuals are lovely though.

This is a really solid list Richard (with the exception being A.Z, which is by now the "What stupid thing with Slaine do next?" show). Thanks for highlighting some of the lower profile shows too. Kudos.

Yatterman has one of the best female protagonists in a while and the emotional beats and tonal shifts are always…

Indeed it does. Looking forward to the film!

Planetes is one of the best space sci-fi adventures.

Steins; Gate is an absolute masterpiece and must be watched by anyone who enjoys a well-wrought sci-fi mystery. Beware, the first half of episode 1 is purposely disorientating, but it's honestly one of the best stories committed to screen or any medium for that…

GARO: Honoo no Kokuin is a series currently airing and seems like a good match. Two knights of mythical power—a father and son—travel from town to town ridding the world of spirits which prey on the insecurities of people. It's beautifully animated, can be outright hilarious, and does some excellent character work.…

Not entirely sure what's compelling me to do so honestly—altruism maybe? :P

I think the problem was the poor balance between exposition and actual story progression. Furthermore, it did become annoying when those rules were altered (and then explained) to make Tatsuya as invincible as possible. Everything revolved around Tatsuya to an incredibly mind-numbing degree.

It was possibly a good taster series, but seriously, there are many series that stand heads and shoulders above it. Whatever gets you interested in following anime must have some merit though!

It's a bit up in the air as nothing's been announced, but given how well the light novels sold last year, it's possible. That said, the anime wasn't that well-received and Madhouse often adapts things just as a commercial for light novels.

My advice would be to find another series to invest in.

Production was just announced and I believe it's being released in 2016.

You have a lot of better series to catch up on in the meantime. If you give an idea of what types of series you like, I could point you to a few as a start.

Digimon, My Teenage Romantic Comedy SNAFU, Ore Monogatari!, Kekkai Sensen and Punchline are the series that I'm looking forward to.

I agree with all the points you've made, but after reading Chapter 56, I have the horrible impression that the mangaka told White Fox the actual ending, and barring a bit of streamlining, that's what they adapted. The manga finishes this summer and so I believe that there isn't much chance of changing the direction…

They are continuing to do a sterling job with the trailers. This one wins for David Bowie.
