Pfft....please, please tell me someone actually said that. That would be hilarious.

...BTOOOM!, specifically its 8th or 9th episode, I think. I enjoy thinking that this one is probably trying to save Battle Royale from cheesy teenage drama.

Next on the list: Steins;Gate, Puella Magi Madoka, and One Piece. (Yep, I haven't watched these, especially the latter 2, yet.)
Our achievements should not see the light of day; but our failures will become widely known.

My opinion of Angel Beats' as a comedy/bizarre high school fantasy story thing is that it's good.

My opinion of Angel Beats' as a look at tragic characters is that the writers hate their own anime and anyone who enjoys fiction.

Free! is surprisingly emotional and unsurprisingly homoerotic. I love it.

Also SHINGEKI NO KYOJIN. JESUS EFFING CHRIST. STOP EFFING DOING THAT. STOP IT. I NEED SOME FEELS LEFT FOR THE NEXT THOR MOVIE.

The Rose of Versailles is on hulu, so I'm watching it. Stuff like that is a guilty pleasure of mine and I've been curious about that title ever since they did an article about it in Animerica way back in the day.

I'm also trying Sound of the Sky. I liked the first episode, but the second one was underwhelming. :/ I might keep on because of the Michiru Oshima soundtrack, though.

I'm trying to avoid making a Haruhi comparison because that's too cliched (I guess) but episode 4 is apparently a baseball episode so this might be difficult.

Assuming you're talking about Angel Beats, you should've seen some of the original promotional art for Yuri. She looked so similar to Haruhi that people figured it was a straight-up ripoff/parody.

I believe this was one of the earlier promo pieces: http://download.minitokyo.net/Yuri.Nakamura..393781.jpg

So Battle of the Gods was released in DVD, and already someone subbed it. Any idea on how reliable are those subs?

I watched the omgimyellow subs, and they were okay. About what you'd expect from speed subs, though two lines weren't translated (but they were throwaway lines). Don't get the google translated subs. Or, you can wait a week or two and TakaSubs will release their version.

I'll be honest, if they had continued Tomoko's parents complete no-selling of her behavior, it would either be the least or most believable part of the show.

Blood-C: The Last Dark. It's kind of making me want to rewatch Blood-C, but the rational part of me is going "Noooooo... that one was shit, remember... only the movie is good and beautiful and full of Saya killing things like she should..."

I am convinced that Watamote is just a sad drama series where they added a comedic spin at the last minute.

When I do my weekly anime catchup I really should leave Free! for after Shingeki No Kyojin so I walk away from my laptop squeeing and giggling instead of morbidly depressed and crying
