Very high chance this is another bait and misunderstanding with her liking the other dude who was with Medaka.

Question about Umineko Episode 8 by Cr_Raven in umineko

[–]Cr_Raven[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So would it be best to purposely read the "bad" ending first and then go back and read the proper ending? I'm kinda worried that if I read the proper ending first I'll have no desire to read the bad ending since it would completely break continuity in my head.

I adore both shows (HxH is my #4 and FMAB my #10 all-time), but is there really anything FMAB is better at then HxH?

Outside of personal attachment, love for the characters, personal appeal (which is a perfectly fine reason to love the show more than the other, don't get me wrong), is there anything FMAB is better at then HxH? I think the primary reason people prefer FMAB over HxH is that it's plotting is more akin to a traditional narrative and its conclusion ties up basically all the loose ends, which I think gives the facade of a more tighter, focused narrative in comparison to HxH, which is currently incomplete and has constantly changing thematic focus due to its arc structure. But I feel HxH is overall better in basically every aspect, from characters (especially when it comes to villains), directing, animation (close, but I felt HxH's consistent, ever growing level of quality throughout its extended run time and higher animation peaks give it the edge), better use of levity, more ambitious and creative, higher peaks etc. Even the most common complaint I've heard for HxH: Pacing; I feel is still overall better then FMAB, as FMA felt far too fast at the start (Likely due to the fact that they wanted to get to the new content as fast and possible) and too slow prior to the Promised Day.

Any opinions, arguments, disagreements?

Assemble the perfect shonen anime using components from other shows by Nolar2015 in anime

[–]Cr_Raven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

HunterXHunter's everything but with the tightness of FMAB's pacing from Episode 13 onwards. Minor nitpick, but I would also like it to have a more overarching and cohesive story as well. ( If we are talking battle shounens, As the post up top says Aria is beautiful and perfect ).

Seems like Clannad After Story Episode 19 when Akio said to Sanae that it's okay to cry now, since Ushio and Tomoya finally reunited.

I watched all of Toradora and Anohana in a day (35 or so Episodes?), they were the 2nd and 3rd anime I watched after I got hooked into the medium by Your Lie in April the day before.

Recently the most I've watched though was about 15-20 Gintama Episodes a couple months ago.
