    Need help

    There was that one episode of YuruYuri... Still, I could think of a few situations where admitting you lied is probably a better option than admitting you watched YuruYuri.

    MCM London Comic Con - October 2016 News Thread

    I think you'd like Invaders of the Rokujyoma, it's not so much a harem show as a show about a group of odd characters brought together under unusual circumstances. I'd compare it to When Supernatural Battles Become Commonplace, but I wouldn't want to get your hopes up too much. It is yet...

    MCM London Comic Con - October 2016 News Thread

    I've seen enough Gendo poses to know who the real best girl is... Of course, I haven't seen Evangelion.

    What did you RECEIVE today? PHOTOS EDITION!

    I do recall the Squid Girl dub being quite good so I suppose that's an advantage of having the DVD now over watching it streaming. I'm not sure there's too much chance of the rest of the show being dubbed though, which is a bit of a shame.

    Currency vs Brexit: GBP Losses

    Well, I was assuming that ayase wasn't entirely serious about killing a bunch of people and that others would assume the same so I didn't really think it was necessary to expressly state I'd be against killing people. I suppose that's maybe too many assumptions but communication in general can...

    Currency vs Brexit: GBP Losses

    Just to clarify, I'm not in favour of killing people to bring about major changes (hence the "valuing life" comment). I do think major changes are essential though (to be fair, I'd imagine most people do) and I don't think it's to our benefit to simply try to do the best with existing systems...

    Poco's Udon World Episodes 1-3. I actually got around to watching something from the new season, and I'm quite pleased with it so far. It still feels a little tough to say exactly what kind of show this is going to be, it has plenty of ground for some interesting drama but it's not clear how...

    Oh well, breathing is overrated anyway.

    UK Anime Blu-ray & DVD Bargains

    It's certainly worth getting to try the show out. That said, I do think Hidamari Sketch is worthy of being seen in higher quality, if possible, so the Blu-ray is a better option if you're already keen on the show or confident you'll enjoy it. The art and animation can be quite strong, and...

    Currency vs Brexit: GBP Losses

    I'm kind of with ayase on this one, although I'm probably more interested in stability. What we really need is cultural/social change towards valuing life and not feeling guilty about expecting a decent standard of living. We have the technology and resources to look after everyone but...

    My Teen Romantic Comedy SNAFU TOO! Review

    It's a shame that the show isn't streaming anywhere (to my knowledge) because I'm kind of curious but I'm not sure I'd want to take a chance on a blind-buy. I feel like I might have said the same thing about the first season at some point. Your description of the dialogue reminds me of Ghost...

    The Official HdE Does Anime Thread

    Just got caught up on your recent videos, good stuff as usual. Oddly enough, Dai-Guard was probably one my earlier anime purchases and I still haven't actually gotten around to watching it. I'm not sure if/when I will, but it does sound like it could be reasonably fun and it's nice to have an...

    MCM London Comic Con - October 2016 News Thread

    I recall the show being stylish, and sometimes wacky, super spy fun mixed with more down to earth (if still somewhat exaggerated) examinations of the challenges, effects and emotional aspects of espionage.

    The Nintendo Switch Thread

    It'd be nice to be able to play Legend of Zelda games without having to buy a console primarily for that purpose. I can't say I've used the portable aspects of actual portable consoles much, so I'm not sure how much a hybrid system would appeal to me. I guess it's nice that they're trying...

    Photo Kano Review

    Amagami SS is another visual novel adaptation that tries to include multiple routes. It does so by basically resetting things between each (usually) four episode arc (it also has a second season with extra episodes). It's a fairly entertaining show but it's not especially ambitious and it...

    MCM London Comic Con - October 2016 News Thread

    It'd be a very pleasant surprise if a release of that Rakugo show was announced, it feels like kind of a long shot though. I did quite enjoy Joker Game, I'm not sure I'd be especially bothered about a fancy edition but I think it'd be a good show to have handy for watching at just about any...

    [Overseas] Anime News & Announcements

    I think Rainy Cocoa would technically have been a Funimation release, though I don't think that makes it significantly more likely that Comet Lucifer will get a release. I'm not sure if Anime Limited have officially cancelled any releases but I think we can basically at least consider Short...

    Overseas Upcoming Non-UK Anime BD/DVD Artwork

    I recall Wakaba*Girl being mildly enjoyable but it also didn't stand out much. I suppose it having short episodes probably limited what it could do but it also felt like it was holding back and deliberately avoiding being anything other than light and easy to watch. Apparently it aired in the...

    It's also probably worth noting that Ah My Buddha (as it's known) doesn't actually contain much fanservice so it doesn't even have that going for it. It's basically a fairly average old school harem comedy. To be fair, it's probably below average but it does have the occasional decent moment...
