And I thought anime was dead

Sumomomomomomo is great. Funny, fast-paced, definitely looks to be worth waiting for. In fact I'll go out on a limb and say it'll probably be the most popular comedic show this season. My only complaint is I don't think Momoko's voice suits her very well. Too nasal, no moe to it.

EDIT: Deleted, it's not her

Older shows I've been following recently:

Nanoha + Nanoha A's (With A's being far superior than the the first season.)
Binbou Shimai Monogatari (Might be a little cheesy, but it's not so bad)

As for this season's shows (for now):

Kanon '06
Black Lagoon - The 2nd Barrage
D.Grayman
Death Note

Waiting for Yamato Nadeshiko Shichihenge to get subbed, while I'm going to check out Negima!? and Asatte no Houkou in the coming days.

Just finished watching Noein, i liked it!
It probably contains the most anime bullshit i've ever seen, but it's a good show. Excellent art and animation.

French subbers subbed Souten no Ken and yet no english sub of this anime: wtf?

It seems no English sub groups are MANLY enough for Souten no Ken!

does it have something to do with Hokuto?

It is its prequel about Kenshiro's uncle. Voiced by Spyke's VA nonetheless.

Is it just me or were there a few references to Haruhi in ep 2 of Kanon?

Kaori: That was a pretty normal introduction.
Yuuichi: If there are any introductions that aren't normal, I'd like to see them.
(Referring to Haruhi's weird self-intro in ep 2)

Yuuichi: When I turned around...Misaka Kaori was standing there.
Kaori: ...why are you doing narration?
(Referring to Kyon's narrative tendency)

Asatte no Houkou seems to be an interesting concept which I hope would be handled well, at least in the dramatic sense. Character designs/animation looks good tho.

Didn't read the manga or watch the first series, but I thought Negima!? was fun. I wonder if they'll manage to balance out the offbeat comedy (very PPD!-ish, but not too extreme. Even the blackboard jokes are in.) with the action in the coming episodes.

Heck, I wish I had SOME time to see the Nanoha, DaCapo and Canvas 2 chapters I haven't seen

Iori E · Post by **Iori E** » Sat Oct 21, 2006 02:52

If any of you watch Yoake Mae Yori Ruri Iro Na, the animation quality takes a huge nosedive at episode 3. It almost looks like a Higurashi episode at some points. But the episode still wins for IRON CHEF REFERENCE.

Happiness! and Otome wa Onee-sama ni Koi Shiteru satisfy my need for traps~ ^o^

Indiana Jones vs. Nanoha?
HEAVEN OR HELL

Cabbage anime is a keeper. I've come to see the previous animation quality as a strong point. :B
