Ehh, I seem to remember one particular shot from when she was sitting at her desk and she did not look very attractive (actually she looked fat IIRC). Though I do like her voice actress (Rias Gremory, Erica Blandelli, and Houki, talk about bishoujos! )

So wait, you don't consider Claymore to be "bishoujo stuff"? Because what I meant by a show like Claymore was a show with a bunch of bishoujos who are super strong like Claymore

When I use that term, I'm more referring to stuff like Clannad - you know, shimmering eyes and all that.

What I thought was the definition of the term might actually be a bit off. I guess I kind of thought it just meant beautiful females but it might actually be restricted more towards beautiful "girls", meaning younger than the women in Claymore (maybe Tabitha knows?). If that's the case, then yeah not bishoujos, I actually tend to enjoy watching the characters that are a little more mature (both male and female). Not a big loli fan.

And it's not just appearance either, it's voices too. I don't consider myself particularly picky about voices, BUT if they sound REALLY young (i.e. super high pitched voice for girls or the guys sound like girls) then I can get annoyed. I dunno if you noticed, but almost all of the Claymores sound mature, and I guess I liked that.

I was using it more to refer to a style than the age they're supposed to be. Not saying your usage is wrong, just clarifying what kind of show I meant.

One thing that I find funny (in a good way) about Claymore is, it always seems like it's set up to be monster hentai, but nothing like that ever happens.

Actually to late, I think I saw somewhere someone was asking how Shingeki no Kyojin

is going to go on with a dead main character

Is that what you are referring to?

Spoiler:
Yeah, though I got to believe we haven't seen the last of him just yet.

Spoiler:

To be honest, I'm not a huge fan of Eren anyways. His personality is abrasive. Perhaps some of that can be blamed on the horrible world they live in, but that doesn't mean I have to like him

. But yeah,

Spoiler:

Also not a fan of Shingeki's OP btw. Instead of coming off as dramatic, it comes off as kinda silly to me.

I just think that his father still has a role to play in this series, I mean he was a renowned scientist or am I making that up? The last time we seen him he was riding toward the wall, I gotta imagine they showed that for a reason.

And his father is probably integral. Maybe he

This might be raining on your parade a bit, but I think Fate/Zero is widely considered better than Fate/Stay Night. I haven't watched much of Zero but I have watched quite a bit of FSN, and I was kind of annoyed by some of it, particularly the main character. He seemed like an idiot who did what he was warned not to do because he was trying to be the "hero" or whatever. Maybe I'm impatient when it comes to foolishness like that...anyways I'll probably try watching some more of Fate/Zero, it seems to be highly regarded.

Also, I watched almost all of Claymore recently (I didn't know much if anything about it before) and it's quite good imo. It has that dark serious atmosphere that I like, and the characters are pretty interesting and well developed (although Raki's kind of annoying...dude grow up) Put a bunch of cool, beautiful, and super strong women together...what could go wrong?

I'm a massive fan of the Fate series, but the FSN anime is to put it bluntly, garbage. The FSN original game that the anime is based off of is however, utterly brilliant and even better than Fate Zero. The anime's problems is that there are three separate routes in the game - but largely follows which is generally viewed as the weakest one, with the main heroine.

There's also the fact that ufotable, the studio that produced Fate Zero, is basically the Valve of anime studios...while Deen, the studio that produced FSN is basically the EA.

I don't know if I'd be that mean to Deen. They've worked on some great shows (Full moon, Fruit Baskets)

No need to be so coy Tabitha, I know you like FSN. You gave it a 10 on MAL so you MUST like it right? :lol:

Besides, I think you pointed this out earlier, but tastes in anime can vary a lot from person to person. For example, while we're on Type-Moon, I actually liked Shingetsutan Tsukihime quite a bit, but apparently quite a few fans of the VN thought it was terrible.

Noo don't trust my MAL ratings. I give most shows a 10 to try and boost the scores :wink:

And the whole VN vs VN anime thing is too complicated lol. I loved Oretachi Tsubasa but most fans of the VNs hated it. It's just like comic book nerds vs comic book movies. A lot of them are picky if the adaption isn't perfect

Nah, something about the characters/animation that just seemed off to me. Maybe I'll marathon it at the end of the season if I hear good enough reviews about it.

LOL WOW me too!

I wasn't quite sure how to describe it, but yeah something about it gave me the sort of "eh I'm not sure if I want to watch this" feeling. I think it was the characters/colors/animation or something like that. But it seems to have positive reviews on MAL, so I might check it out later. If you're going to take a flyer on something, might as well take a flyer on something made by the creator of Psycho-Pass I guess eh?

Anyone watched Chrno Crusade? Is it worth watching all the way through? It seems pretty good. Someone might have spoiled it for me a bit though because I think I read somewhere that someone thought the ending

Time for a resurrection? Has anyone been watching Hentai Ouji? I started watching it and for some reason I found the first minute or so of the first episode HILARIOUS. Might be worth watching.

It was just a coincidence! A mistake! No, wait, a conspiracy! :lol:
