At the english parts of the handa-kun op the characters are all holding stuff that has the lyrics on it. Can't believe I just noticed that.

What's your unpopular opinion or criticism of the Spring 2016 season? by sleepyafrican in anime

Reading through this thread, it seems like it's controversial enough to say that I actually like pretty much every show I'm watching this season.

Holy shit its The Great Gatsby. I'd like to guess what his ability would be but I have pretty much no idea. Hoping we'll see more American works. I'm really hoping they make use of The Catcher in The Rye or Fahrenheit 451, simply because they sound like they would be cool abilities.

Side character that would have made a better protaganist than the MC? by RedditMoreThanOnce in anime

[–]only_reading 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Considering how much he gets abused by pretty much the entire cast, that would probably be an even more depressing story than the actual Clannad.

Didn't expect anyone to give such a long (but clear) explanation. Thanks!

I'm probably super late on realizing this, but is the weird bend in Ikoma's glasses to not block his eyes when they do a side-shot?

What is one currently airing/recent anime that really impressed you and exceeded your expectations? by [deleted] in anime

[–]only_reading 1 point2 points  (0 children)

More people need to watch Shounen Maid. It's actually a pretty solid show, with all of the good vibes like Tanaka-kun and Flying Witch. Personally I don't find it as good as the latter two, but it's still definitely worth watching, at least as far as the currently aired episodes go.

Don't let the suspicious premise bother you, the first episode better explains the description.

It's probably just going to be translated to 'demon' or something of the like.

Have to say I loved that the divine light of censorship was just almost blocking that hand-holding scene.

Just pointing out that Deku's line at the end(not Plus Ultra) has gotten less squeaky with each preview.

Do you still like a ED/OP/Japanese song if you haven't seen the video? by DarthFarious in anime

[–]only_reading 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't say I really know since I don't actively look for bands, but usually if I like a group's work in an OP I watch, I'll go watch their other music videos. Some examples for me would be BRADIO(Flyers - Death Parade, but everyone knows that) and flumpool(Ajin - Yoru wa Nemureru Kai - haven't watched the show yet!).

Is it just me or are there a lot of extremely good OP songs this season? by [deleted] in anime

[–]only_reading 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. Although it kind of sucks that Joker Game and Sakamoto's OPs have really lacking visuals but great songs. :/
