Ugh....
Am I the only one having difficultly for catching up a anime, because it's really difficult for me to try to catch up with animes, especially a anime with 100+ episodes. I have like, 6 Animes to catch up.

You mean new stuff? Yes. Every October, January, March/April, and July are when the new seasons start.

You're never caught up with anime. But seriously, with long-running shows, I just watch them in spurts...

Yeah. Another reason I always fell behind on animes, is because of school and I get home at 5:30 P.M.

I read the new chapter of Bleach today!

Oetsu of the Zero Division faces off against the vanguard of the Stern Ritter!

With an unassuming zanpakuto, Oetsu easily crushes Stern Ritter "M", Stern Ritter "X", Stern Ritter "C", and Stern Ritter "D" (what! Ywach's vanguard taken out so easily?)!

As it happens, the zanpakuto Oetsu used was one he considers to be a failure of a sword, but the reason for that is because it is too perfect. So sharp it never chips, gets dirty, and can't be restrained by a sheath, it was too powerful to be put into circulation amongst the Soul Society (Oetsu the one who forges every single zanpakuto), which is why victory came so easily with it.

Suddenly, Stern Ritter "D" rises again! Apparently he can't be killed by the sword, because his power prevents him from ever dying, no matter others (or even himself) try to kill him. How will this end!?

Gundam: Reconguista in G ep. 4

While I'm still conflicted about the main character's actions, and the pirates aren't much better about dealing with prisoners...I mean at least these guys seem to have an inkling as to what they should be doing, but then they don't follow through...

But other thann that, it's getting pretty interesting, and now there's some mystery to the Gundam itself and the motivations of the capital army. Definitely looking forward to seeing more.

Both SAO and Log Horizon are having questing arcs, which is pretty cool.

Except Log Horizon's is much more interesting IMO (as usual).

Yeah SOA seems to be getting worse, especially now that Kirito is opening harassing the girls. I'm surprised Asuna didn't snap at him. -_-

BTW, I'm gonna start doing my big Toonami overview thing on Sunday nights now (I'm just too tired to do the whole thing right after the block).

That said, here are some brief things. Shadow of Mordor review (with no number score!?), first DBZ Kai promo!!!!! (speaking of DBZ, Naruto was trying to pull his best imitation routine tonight, and it was pretty cool). Oh, and Bruce Willice in Hellsing Ultimate O_O... (and don't get me started on the rest of that utter massacre...)

I will say the beginning of the latest Hellsing Ultimate episode stunned me. Like, the use of bizarre, wtf goofy humor just staring our protagonist in the face is almost too much. I mean this in a good way.

Alright, time for my big Toonami wrap up.

Attack on Titan - I actually got to watch it for the second week in a row! No titan action this week, unfortunately, but it looks like next week is going to hit big. As for the story, I'm not even going to try to analyze it since I've seen so little. The animation quality continues to impress, though.

Bleach - This week we got to see Byakuya beat Tsukishima (who is at least one of the two Fullbrings who actually puts up a fight, though it's a bit confusing since he has probably the most convoluted power out of any character in the series), and most of the fight between Rukia & Riruka. Rukia was trapped inside the form of a rabbit/devil plush toy (remember, this arc IS canon, lol), and STILL managed to whup up on her opponent.

Naruto Shippuden - As I mentioned briefly in my last post, Naruto is completely unhinged, and is doing his best to show his early DBZ level destructive power. Oh, and his skin is peeling off... ew.

One Piece - And now off to Robin's past. There's some mystery regarding forbidden texts, a giant washed up on shore for whatever reason, and the head archeologist has green hair & beard that's shaped into an upside down clover, lol.

Gurren Lagann - Things are a bit heavy around team Gurren after the stunning death of Kamina, but things pick back up after the sudden appearance of a young girl named Mia, and her bombshell announcement.

Hellsing Ultimate - That's it, the creators of this show have to be on acid, end of story. First we have a totally random goofy interaction where Alucard is getting lectured by Bruce Willice (yes, THAT Bruce Willice, complete with a ton of movie references), followed by the goriest event I've ever seen on TV (seriously, one scene showed a Nazi vampire with "something" in it's mouth that's just way too horrific to describe). This is the most successful I've ever seen the villains in any medium. Though the moment with the head of the British central command center was surprisingly poignant, as far as this show goes.

And other than that, they reviewed Shadow of Mordor (with no number score), and had their first DBZ Kai promo (Yes!!!).

Though not officially related to the block, is was cool seeing Nintendo advertise effectively during it, as I noticed at least 2 Bayonetta 2 adverts, and 2 Smash Bros. 3DS adverts.

Beginning of SAO quest arc:

  • "Onii-chan" appearing about 10 times in dialogue.
  • Pointless Asuna bath time fanservice.
  • Boring info dump from character we've never seen before and may never see again.
  • Kirito's harem pretending to be useful.

Beginning of LH quest arc:

  • Shirou doing the anime glasses thing about 10 times.
  • Tetora fanservice done for parody/comedy.
  • Interesting info dump dialogue from main character spoken over action set pieces.
  • Several characters discuss strategy and contribute to success of the raid.

Seems about par for the course.

Watched the new episodes of F/SN, Psycho Pass 2, Log Horizon, and SAO this weekend.

  • Info dump on F/SN. It's a little repetitive, but not gratingly so. First real fight is next episode.
  • Psycho-Pass hasn't been quite as intriguing as the first season yet, but it's a slow burner kind of show, so I'm prepared to sink my teeth into it.
  • First two episodes of Log Horizon seemed lazy in the animation department, but this episode was a marked improvement. Interesting info dump episode.
  • SAO gonna SAO.

Still have to get around to catching up on Monogatari Second Season/Hanamonogatari. Still have to watch last Kara no Kyoukai movie. Still have to check out Barakamon.

I just started a new anime called Akatsuki no Yona. And it's supposed to be an action Shoujo thing I guess? (they got a lot of hot dudes though...)
I found it interesting how the opening theme is totally instrumental. I haven't watched many anime like that.

So the newest episode of Detective Conan (they're using the dub name of Case Closed...fair enough) is on Crunchyroll now!

I would recommend most people start at the beginning though. The first episodes are honestly the best way to try out the series even if you aren't certain you want to go through the whole thing, and if you are already interested in doing just that, this might spoil some things.

Well, I figured the problem why I'm having trouble catching up with Animes. It's because I started a Anime so many times when I'm trying to finish the current Anime I'm watching. :l I have like 7 Animes to catch up with and some of them had 100+ episodes to watch.

(Ugh.... Did my grammar went so terrible?)
