I'm listening to Abnormalize right now... And.... Not really feeling it.
The vocals are overproduced to the point of getting annoying, could hardly heard what TK was singing with all that was going on in the song, mastering is subpar even for a Jrock song, only part I liked was a the riff.
Going back to unravel.
I'm a huge fan of the band, but all of their albums sound like ****, especially I'mperfect. Feeling Your UFO sounded kinda decent though. Japanese rock on a whole, is some terribly, terribly, terribly mastered stuff

hey guys i always asked myself why so many love bakemonogatari, so i decided to give it a chance again after many years, and then i was happy that i delayed it.
it was a good challenge that i feared to waste time on, and i didn't ^^
but now for the biggest anime challenge in my life!! lol yes.... MADOKO!!! what is the deal with it!!! even my friend took the challenge and saw it all, why is Madoka a big deal?
will i like it? convince me Madoka fans!!! go go go ;3
oh why madoka now? while watching monogatari second, a good PV appeared at the end of one of the EPs, it was one of these good short PVs that leave you wondering , lol Japanese advertising is so foxy...
Other than what everyone else has said........
If you like Gen Urobuchi stories, i'd say yeah. If you don't like them, maybe not. If you don't know who Gen Urobuchi is, watch the first 3 episodes: He shows his "good" side in ep 3 and on.
(Define "Good" as Gen being Gen.)
Yeah, i'm terrible at recommending stuff. I'll just say it's not really anything new if you've seen alot of amine, but it's still one of my favorites.
Madoka is a bit overrated in my opinion. There have been many mahou shoujo series that depict mental torture, but everyone seems to think Madoka came first. Its good, but to me not as good as it's made out to be.
Overrated? Damn right. So much hype for almost nothing truly 'new'.
Still good? Hell yeah. It's in my top 10 stories. (Along with most of The Urobutcher's other works, and Saya at #1 for god knows why reasons)
First one that comes to mind is Black Rock Shooter. You can argue it's not actually mahou shoujo, but it pretty much follows the formula. BRS is worse than Madoka too but I think it's pretty dark and screwed up. I think Mahou Kishi Rayearth got pretty dark and that was from the 90's.
Thinking about it... it's more the hundreds of "Madoka took Mahou Shoujo genre and flipped it on it's head"/"Deconstruction of the genre" articles out there that piss me off, because I don't see it as being ground breaking in those ways. Thus it "appears" to be set on some pedestal like it reinvented the wheel... and I don't think it's an accurate assessment.
I do like Madoka...I just want to set realistic expectations for Shini
What BRS tried to create was awesome. They failed at bringing it through though. (the 8 ep length was part of the problem)

@Akiroz - ... The **** did I just read?
never heard of "don't watch an anime called boku" ?
i Highly suggest you give it a shot, its translated up till the 2nd chapter but you won't regret playing it, you will understand all what i said about it in the previous pages
i really thought that Akiroz played it, how suprising XD
oh the name is : Aiyoku no Eustia.
Haven;t played it, will check it out now...
Also watched the first episode of Yuri Kuma Arashi.
^my face during the entire episode....seriously.
The first half was just stupid. The second half was absolutely bizzare.
What the heck.
It's a loooot like Mawaru Penguindrum, but uncomfortably yuri. The yuri-ness is off the damn charts. It's like the Kill la Kill of yuri.
Hoo boy....needs further investigation. I mean, it's by the guy who is responsible for Penguindrum and Utena. Everything could happen.
Pretty much my reaction...
I didn't know it had anything to do with Penguindrum when I went in, figured out half way through.
but I actually enjoyed Penguindrum despite the same style.

"Lesbian Bear Storm" sums this up pretty don't you think?

I don't think it was overrated, tbh. Simply because it does everything well. I've watched a few but it just doesn't show it as well as Madoka. BRS has that constantly ominous feel to it that braced yourself for the worse, Taiyou was literally dropping hints everywhere on when and how it would get dark. Madoka? Boom. Ded. Welcome to the series madafaka, cue Kalafina ED.
It has shock value, it had the weird runes that was literally a hidden language, it had moe and ultra-cutesy OP that luls you into a stupor and then Urobutcher kicks you in the head.
Execution is key, concept is second, and for me, no other Magical Series tackling the series does it as well.
"Lesbian Bear Storm" sums this up pretty don't you think?
Great naming sense right there.
Don't watch an anime called "Yuri Kuma". Man, this schiit is is so wrong on so many motherf***** levels yo. I was talking to one of my white friends and he sent me a video only labeled "Yuri Kuma", I said to this dude "What's this schiit?". He just giggled and said "Just watch them and make sure nobody is around when you're watching it!". Then I thought it was some weird porno or some strange schiit but I watched the first minute it's like "yooooooo...... what the screw!"
Then I continued and I was like "YOOOOOOO~~~~~~~~~" Then it got to the motherf***** OP and then I said "YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!"
I couldn't screwing believe what I just saw! It was like Satan gave me his porno collection, schiit was so disturbing yet... yet I couldn't stop watching it! Then half way in and it was like two of them, those niggas.... yo, those niggas.... and that girl saw them... then she YOOOO!!!!! then the nigga took the gun and YOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It was like your bitch wanted to have sex with you but she wanted to do something different.... and it was so screwed up and creepy. you just... kept watching it and that's what I screwin did!!!! Then there were those three.... three niggas THREE!! IT WAS THREEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!
and Life Sexy was his name nigga, Life Sexy was his motherf***in name. oh my god, I aint going to heaven niggas, I already sold my soul to the Kuma. so I just wanna tell you all right now, don't watch an anime called "Yuri Kuma". Don't do it nigga, It's like succubus! Remember what I'm sayin' to you niggas.
Looks good, will watch tonight =D
Dude what? How can you NOT know Paul McCartney? I can understand today's generation not knowing Neil Young (Pono player) or U2 (iTunes Gate), but how can you not know Paul McCartney of the Beatles that everyone still listens to? People these days still listen to the Beatles' music but they don't know the band members?
Welp perhaps I have seen some of these names before, but never knew who they really are or what they have done....
Cute girls doing cute things :3
What more do you want?
Yeaaaah talk about correct expectations before watching Madoka XD
I'm not sure which movie I saw, but the one that wasn't a recap or whatever? It had absolutely insane animation. I'm curious about the animation budget. It was very impressive and makes stuff like the Rebuild films look like a joke
That should be the last movie.
Hmmm seemed to me pretty much like usual Shaft tricks (slideshow style, rough effects, high contrast patterns, etc), perhaps just a bit higher profile, nothing really special :/

On mobile device as I watch AGDQ...
Wanted to drop in and say that I enjoyed Mawaru Penguindrum even tho I didn't get it. The Penguin charas were hilarious and the "Rock over Japan" single is in my music library. Thanks for reminding me of Fabulous Max, too. Too good.

I just got the rifle in today
Holy schiit is it heavy as ****.
The biggest problem I have with it now is that I can't do the artillery hold properly. Airguns are different and require you not to hold it locked in place like a real weapon. However the artillery hold requires you to basically...almost act like an artillery mount. Where you have the rifle in hand nearly as if nothing was hooked onto it.
This is really ******* heavy.
It's got recoil too....a lot more than I expected.
