Well that was a nice third episode of Nobunaga The Fool. In some ways there's an air of Sousei no Aquarion in The Fool which is no surprise considering that some of the staff had worked on Aquarion before.
 
But I have an observation to make. One of the main themes of this show is Tarot cards and obviously, each episode is named after tarot cards (1. Star; 2. Lovers; 3. Chariot) and that got me thinking, just how many episodes will there be. If we use the Marseille pattern, there are 22 cards so maybe 22 episodes? Also, I noticed that one out of the 22 cards is "The Fool" which is card number 0 or 22 and it has a particular meaning. "It represents the newly incarnated soul, a blank slate free of the imprints it is soon to receive from the society of men" according to tarotpedia. But then in the very olden days, "The Fool" means "The Madman" if translated from French (Le Fou), which does fit surprisingly well with the main character.
 
Hmmm... Interesting.
 
So on that note, I hope the foolness of this show continues.

  And to think it happened in 2011...that's the same year I watched the Haruhi Suzumiya series
 
Since watching Haruhi, Lucky Star and Death Note, I don't think I've watched any other anime that stars Aya.

The most recent anime I saw with her in it would by Gatchaman crowds
 
She was Paiman!! A resident Alien Panda!!

Nobunaga the fool ep 3 was quite good
 
To me, its a good abridgement between a serious show with lots of themes and a fun one.
 
I like and enjoy Space Dandy because it is literally a ride. But I also like serious shows.
 
Valvrave SUCKED at doing this.
 
So far, this anime has done quite well. I'm liking it.

The problem with Valvrave is that they tried too hard making it serious, so much that it looks unnatural and ridiculous I mean the political drama in Valvrave was quite **** while with Nobunaga The Fool, that show embrace its crazy, out of this world themes and makes them a joy to watch.

  Monogatari series is actually on the easier side to me.. The MC's speed was somehow fast, but the CV said fairly clearly, and most weird terms get explained.
Those with lots of special terms or "dead words" here and there without proper explanation are harder to follow, like Nichijou.
 
 

Ah. Well, it doesn't help that most of my Japanese skills come from anime...with no formal training. So stuff like that is kinda hard for me to follow. 
 
I also try to watch with nico comments streaming by. Some kanji are synonymous to some chinese characters (which I've forgotten alot of already), which makes it easier to follow.

Yep, exactly. The Fool is doing it decently right now. The execution was a bit off during ep 3's battle scenes and didn't feel 'right', but so far, still so good.

  Good Lord.
I'm a bit jealous to be honest. I would never ever put that much money into a PC. But that's just me.

hehe =3 some people like cars, i like computers
