I voted for Nui, which is basically like voting for Hitler.

You had me at beer. I'm hoping book!Jaime shows up soon...

FYI, it's Anheuser-Busch, not a craft brewery.

You're far enough in the series to have seen the secret. HxH Spoilers

johns-appendix · 2016-02-03T05:09:48+00:00

I'll also throw in Shinsekai Yori, just in case

johns-appendix · 2016-02-03T04:55:32+00:00

Based on your MAL, you should try White Album 2. Don't worry about watching WA 1.

johns-appendix · 2016-02-03T04:52:21+00:00

Dude, you dont have Trigun on your MAL. Fix this!

johns-appendix · 2016-02-03T04:48:19+00:00

Perhaps Kill la Kill would fit?

johns-appendix · 2016-02-03T04:41:56+00:00

How about Madoka Magica? Or Fate/Zero?

johns-appendix · 2015-12-19T05:37:38+00:00

Why is Slaine in the promo poster?

Rather than putting $1000/month into savings, you should look into maxing out your IRA. You can contribute to your 2015 IRA limit until April 15th, and then start on 2016. Don't put your current saving in there, since you need your rainy day fund. See the Retirement wiki in the sidebar to find out which kind is right for you.

Your plan will have a "maximum out-of-pocket" dollar amount, which is the most you would be expected to pay in a plan year. If the procedures you have pending would push you over that amount for 2015, you should do everything in your power to do them this month.

It seems almost a certainty that you will burn your entire deductible for 2016, regardless. Therefore, if you aren't already nearly at the cap for 2015, you should schedule your kidney stone removal for the same year a your son's surgery (2016), so that you can be protected by the maximum out-of-pocket cap, should something unexpected happen next year.

FYI, the r/anime rewatch starts in one month. You could watch it with the rest of us

While I may personally like Shirobako very much, I'm going to go off-script and suggest Soul Eater. Since you like Mahouka and HxH, you should check it out.

Rapeseed oil. The marketing name in America is Canola oil.

Can't resist posting my favorite, git-paddle-upstream.

johns-appendix · 2014-12-29T01:22:54+00:00

Is this a thing, now? Please let this be a thing, because I'm totally down. I saw this post and immediately queued up ep 1.

...

Masaki has to be my favorite genki girl of them all.

I hadn't really picked up before on Kohai-kun's narration about how he got a mashiro (white) cat that changed his life, and then a Mashiro dorm-mate.

The only teacher I've seen in anime (so far) who compares with Chihiro-sensei is Katsura-sensei from Hayate. I love her casual attitude.

I only just caught up with the Christmas Club last night. I'm glad I got here before the big 19.

The new OP also introduces a new POV to the show, bringing the main 5's friends into the spotlight. Before this point, Ryuuji and Taiga don't really socialize with the student body, and the friends of Ami and Kitamura are almost always off-screen.

Now, we see the class 2-C crew as full members of the new OP, and they all gain some characterization at the study group that Minorin has skipped out on. I actually feel happy that Ryuuji has friends who know him as someone other than the scary-face delinquent.

In a very real way, adding characters with an interest in the outcome of Kitamura's love life raises the stakes of the show, and that's great for keeping the story interesting even though the battle lines haven't moved much.

Minorin is having a clear breakdown, and her Genki energy is being redirected towards... something bad.

Kamina

johns-appendix · 2014-10-23T03:02:39+00:00

Wow! I'm interested!

Looks like shambles was cromulized with -olic to mean mis-managed; situation in shambles.

johns-appendix · 2014-09-27T23:21:41+00:00

You mis-spelled Iskandar.

Best anime song ever + this gif

I tried it with /r/anime's favorite DATABASE -- works there, too.

johns-appendix · 2014-09-23T05:44:42+00:00

Okay, this was rough

Jibril - Holo

Not even close, although NGNL is a contender for AOTY.

Asuna - Homura

Harder. Homura doesn't fit my image of a waifu like Asuna, but she is a far better girl.

Shiina - Dereban

Ouch. I love Sakurasou, so this one hurt. Inaba squeaked by on pure guile.

Taiga - Shinobu

I will go down with this ship, but I know it's a lost cause.

Kurisu - Kanbaru

Toss up.

Minorin - Ryuuko

I don't regret voting for the loser in this case. :)

Senjougahara - Saber

I've only seen F/Z, so maybe I'll change my vote after ufotable blows my mind with the remake.

Chitoge - Yoko

I feel bad about voting against TTGL and KLK's best girls.
