So was K-ON.
Hey, now I'm getting hopeful again. Baka, baka, baka!!
Nobody ever said cosmic's list was intended as anything other than parody.

Erm...can't argue with that, I guess, heh
The deliberately abrupt scene transitions from Three Card to the plot are still entertaining!
Henrietta's
O_O Well...you can't make this stuff up, folks!
Overall, nice episode with a few random elements mixed in for "Wonderland". Twenty was still great, Kokoro still delightfully conniving and Sherlock still lovably stupid!
The girls have a cold! Oh noes!
He's going to keep topping himself, isn't he?
That mask has made quite the journey!
Resplendence Berserk! = Wonderland?

Hope is for the inexperienced.
I'm beyond cool with this; for me it's really exciting to see Watanabe involved in something outside of the Bebop/Champloo formula for which he's mostly known.
Cowboy Bebop's genre is Cowboy Bebop.
It had an overarching narrative though. Nothing I saw in that synopsis blurb mentioned anything like that.

You really should consider removing that E7 avatar to prepare for the mourning process when E7 Ao begins.

While the animation wasn't as fluid as the first episode this still had all that Hidamari charm.

Not even The Principal is immune to the effect of valentines chocolate.

Have you seen his short for Genius Party?
May it remind me of the good times.
Otherwise I think I'm going to want to put a shotgun to my head.

Another end
Okay I'll admit I did not see that coming. What a tweest! Solid finale to a solid show.
This really surprised me in the end. Wasn't much to it at first, but the deliberate slow pacing of the first few episodes seems like a good choice in retrospect. It really helped set the mood while keeping it subtle (even if that was mostly thrown out the window by the end). The Final Destinationness just kept escalating until it all culminated in one crazy climax. Great atmosphere too.
Definitely the best horror show since Shiki (though I don't even know if there's been any since then).

You think you can keep me unaware, but alas, I am ever watchful.
Man I wish it was my tag, too bad Duck has me on junior member until I undergo the torture that is anime like school days.
Lol, that one does work though, so I'll leave it.

You have to stop being such a glutton to enjoy the finer tastes in life.
You will not stop the idol takeover!!! My AKB0048 OT will consume us all.
Your error was believing that it was possible for a Kawamori anime to be sinful. His series are the judge of our sinfulness.

I still have to catch up on ben-to and another.
So far behind
Luckily im off tomorrow.
Ben-To was glorious at the beginning and the end, they kinda got sidetracked from fighting over half-priced box lunches in the middle though.
Another...well, Mei's cuteness is a miracle of the universe itself. The show itself made me sad at the end, so much potential was wasted on that ending.
What would you know about that?

[Ano Natsu Whatever - Finale]
This is a fairly strong finale all round. Things and characters are wrapped up (as much as is appropriate), the plot is tied up and the actual episode is well-made. This show has been consistently good throughout, with no real missteps or bad episodes in sight, which is quite a feat.
Personally, I was rather detached from the ending because I don't really have any interest in the characters of Ichika or Kaito, but that's just due down to personal taste.

But who judges Kawamori?
Hush you.
I want at least a fake monocle, damn it!
Let's see...
Apollon
Hyouka
Sankarea
Kore wa Zombie desuka? of the dead
Zetman
Jormungand
Mysterious Girlfriend X
Tasogare Otome x Amnesia
Space Bros
E7 AO
Medaka box
Cthulu girl
Accel World
Sphere the anime
Acchi Kocchi
Every time I see Kids on the slope, I would immediately think of the name Kids in the hall.
Edit: Oh and those who finally watch finish Another,go check out the difference in the novel vs anime. Apparently I heard P.A Works butchered the show.

I guess I can re-list what I plan to watch with nonsensical commentary behind it.
SD Naruto: I like gag stuff, so I might watch this.
Sengoku Collection: Will probably be a painful experience. Curse my like for the Sengoku period.
Fate/Zero S2: Let's get the
started!
Hyou-ka: Them eyes.
Acchi Kocchi: I dunno why.
Accel World: Maybe if I could get over how stupid the MC looks.
Tsuritama: Fishing anime?
Natsuiro Kiseki:
Haiyore! Nyaruko-san: Silly, Nyaruko-san.
Sakamichi no Apollon: Give me all that jazz.
Medaka Box: I guess hype?
I would probably also want to watch Kore Zombie Desu Ka? OF THE DEAD whenever I get around to finishing S1. Also, expect to drop half if not all of these shows.

Really nice addition on the Apollon banner there. I'm nowhere near good enough to pull something like that off.
Spoiler that shit yo, I haven't watch it yet.
Still? There's at least a few good anime every year.

Amazing. How does the show keep topping itself?
I could have screen capped almost this entire episode. Everything was gold, Jerry. GOLD!

I heard the manga was different too.
