I haven't heard of the first one. But Jetan's recommendation is like the Japanese version of The Final Countdown. A JMSDF destroyer that goes back in time in the middle of the Pacific War.


Hmmm, that seems intersting. Depending on whatever Symphoger is, I may watch Jetan's suggestion.

In capitalism, you pretty much have a 50/50 chance of being rich or poor. In communism, it's 1/99. What makes people think they have the luck/skill to become the 1% if they can't even succeed in a 50/50 society???

It's also fairly divided politically (or at least the characters) and it doesn't whitewash the fact the Japanese Empire was zealous...like Konpeki no Kantai, which is practically an alternate history wank.

Symphogear: Take idol singers, toss in some Sengoku Basara levels of kickassery, a fucking awesome soundtrack and some decent Yuri overtones, and boom. Symphogear.

You should see the real Gendo and Fuyutsuki. I saw my father watching the series (UFO) online and thought it too much to be coincidental, so I searched it up...and I was right.


Not sure whether to be amused or frightened– after all, we're talking about Eva here. Either way, I can see the resemblance.

As a swimmer, this series has a lot of problems.

1. They swim unrealistically fast. As in, they're high-schoolers swimming at Olympic record speeds.

2. Their hair is way, way too perfect. If you're a longtime swimmer, your hair is going to be a mess of split ends.

Eh.

It's unrealistic too.

At least, for now. Their shoulderblades are not pushed out nearly far enough. Thus, the "v" shaped profile of a swimmer is lost.

It's a fanservice anime. You can't really complain about things like that.

Everything by Hiroyuki, kay?

Though Gundam Unicorn, Sengoku Basara, and SnK OSTs were by far his best works.

Baccano!
Code Geass
Cowboy Bebop
Death Note
Fate/ series (Avoid the old anime, watch Fate/stay night unlimited blade works 2014 first, then watch the upcoming Heavens Feel movie-though I'd recommend reading the VN first, at least the Fate route, before anything else, then finally watch Fate/Zero and optionally read Fate/Hollow Ataraxia. Or wait for it's anime adaptation. That is the recommended order, though you can watch Zero first -it is finished, so you might feel like watching it first. Most would recommend other wise, though)
Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood (Brotherhood, not the original, the latter isn't bad but it isn't as good)
Kara no Kyoukai: The Garden of Sinners (Do note It's a bit of a heavy show and not for everyone. There are several movies, watch them in order of release, not chronological order.)
Psycho-Pass
Rurouni Kenshin: Tsuiokuhen (I'd recommend doing it like this; watch S1 and S2 of the original anime, then watch Tsuiokuhen, forget the third season and pick up the manga where S2 ends, and optionally watch Seishonen, though keep in mind the mangaka considers it not canon. Though it should be noted while the original series is mostly good, it doesn't compare to Tsuiokuhen.)

"Shaft doing Grisaia would be awesome," Imota agrees, "but it's pretty alright as it is now. Imota admits he was mainly interested because of Tomoe Tamiyasu and Kaori Mizuhashi," Imota concedes.
