At first glance, my scores may seem a little low, but allow me to explain how I interpret the 10-grade ranking system:

1. -- Garbage. An anime with a 1 is the bottom of the barrel. I have yet to rank anything this low. Mars of Destruction is a 1.

2. -- Incredibly Poor. Rank #2 is reserved for shows that are very bad, but have redeeming qualities.

3. -- Actively Bad. A 3 is an anime that is not only subpar, but actively bad for one reason or another.

4. -- Below Average. Anime ranked with a 4 are not necessarily bad, but fall below what I deem to be your average anime.

5. -- Average. 5 is my baseline. A show ranked with a 5 is neither good nor bad. It is what is expected of most anime in their respective genre.

6. -- Above Average. A 6 means that the anime rises above the average, but doesn't go much further than that. These shows are aptly described as good, but they are short of great.

7. -- Worthwhile. An anime ranked 7 is a show worth watching. It is high above average, and is a show that will not waste your time.

8. -- Very Good. The 8th rank contains excellent anime. They are very strong in their genres, and are sure to be enjoyable or meaningful.

9. -- Amazing. The bridge between the 9th and 10th ranks is a short one. Anime that fall into this tier are the cream of the crop, with only a few blemishes.

10. -- Perfect. The 10th tier is the most exclusive. If an anime earns this rank, I will have little bad to say about it. Rank 10 is reserved for as near to perfection as we can possibly get.

Yeah that's pretty much my take on Root A as well, series 1 was interesting because there wasn't as much action as I'd expected (and a pacifist main character is unusual too). Root A's just loads of fairly unexplained action, and increasingly strange proportions (eg Amon's increasing yaoi-shoulders).

Yurikuma's making much more sense, but I think there's a little culture gap on some parts of it. My angle is that it's about degrees of (non-)acceptance of gay relationships vs the sort of school-age crushes that are vaguely accepted (and expected to grow out of and be straight after). Specific meanings are still hard to figure out...

Shirobako's great, it's instantly one of my favourites. The Bluray sales are fantastic too, apparently. I already reckon it'll get a second season. Pick it up when airing stuff starts to finish!

Lachan92 Feb 26, 2015 2:48 PM

Update: Caught up on Yurikuma. Daaaaaang.

Lachan92 Feb 26, 2015 11:01 AM

Jeez, I thought I had a lot with 8 airing... lemme know how you get on with Tokyo Ghoul's 2nd season, I have opinions on it (I have opinions on everything haha, this season's been mixed...we'll compare notes).

I've finally got two evenings off, ish, so I'll catch up on Yurikuma and get back to you. It's definitely getting pretty real.

& pick up Shirobako, won't you?! It's so good and no-one else I know likes it.

Lachan92 Feb 24, 2015 2:18 AM

Yo. Doing alright - been both flat-out busy and ill for a few weeks, so I'm a bit behind on seasonal stuff. Shirobako, Kiseijuu & Yurikuma are still the best things airing - everything else is average-to-forgettable so far. Yurikuma's getting better and better.

How're you doing?

Greetings, and welcome to the 2015 Winter / Spring Edition of the Namine's Café Newsletter

First, I would like to thank everyone who has joined the cafe, as well as those who actively support us. After being open for less than 18 months, we are closing in on 5000 members and 100 affiliations. And Namine's cafe just recently passed the incredible milestone of 8000 pages of chat comments (that's 160,000 comments), the first club in MAL to ever achieve this goal.

So please come back to the cafe to support the Tournament!!!

Now to the important stuff ^_^

We have an amazing amount of things happening at the cafe: First, we have three major competitions coming, including an Anime Couples Competition, a Voice Actor Competition, as well as the 2nd Annual Namine's Cafe Best Girl Competition. We'll also be having several other small competitions along the way, including an Anime Scavenger Hunt, a Best Scene Competition, a card making competition, plus many more. In addition to our competitions, there some big news at the cafe. First of all, Skype is back!!! While we still have a dedicated IRC chat, we've brought back Skype, and it's as popular as it ever was in the cafe. Also, member card editions are returning to the cafe shortly, with some of the best card makers in MAL signed up to help make wonderful cards, so stop by early and often to see what cards are available.

The details for each of our event sare listed in the below spoilers:

Namine's Café Anime Couple's Competition

Namine's Café Second Annual Best Girl Competition

Namine's Café Voice Actor Competition

Please note, if you any questions on any of these competitions, please contact militus, himikoi, shap111, or elkensteyin.

congrats on finishing nge

No worries, we chatted about the previous comments in irc anyway, so I hadn't expected a reply :3

The 3rd KouGraf episode was kinda a let down for me - the animation seemed to plummet in quality, and it wasn't as interesting as previous ones. I hope it's just a minor blip - the first episode was fantastic visually, so it was a bit of a shock!
I gotta use more lentils in my cooking I think, I rarely do. What's your lentil curry recipe? I'ma try it if I get the chance.

Last season I ended up dropping everything but Kiseijuu and Shirobako, but this season's looking better! I gotta watch more of Yurikuma, but I'm liking Rolling Girls & DRRR!!x2, as well as Tokyo Ghoul 2, AssClass and I picked up Cinderella Girls after seeing it on tumblr a lot. (I'm watching a lot this season...)
How's Junketsu going? I watched the first episode but didn't really think it was my thing.
DRRR!!x2's the only one I'm getting mixed feelings with - it's definitely done by a different studio and some of the differences are a bit jarring. I hope it picks itself up a bit, but the pacing & art's really noticeably different and it's putting me off a bit. 1st season had great art, the spindliness is new...

NGE was definitely a little difficult to piece together first time around. It just gets better though! You might have been warned already, but you should probably watch End of Evangelion pretty soon after you watch episode 25 & 26 - they happen at the same time, and 25/26 were done with a lower budget than they should really have been. I can't speak for Death & Rebirth though, I skipped it because everyone said it wasn't really worth it.

Lachan92 Jan 24, 2015 2:32 PM

So you're watching DRRR!!x2, right? Have you noticed how frickin noodley everyone's proportions are?!?!

Also, Evangelion, nice one. Liking it?

Oh, as an extra to the Koufuku Graffiti summary, I found a blog that's posting the recipes from each episode:

Lachan92 Jan 15, 2015 2:40 PM

Koufuku Graffiti is gonna be great, I know it. Cooking-based show with yuri undertones? Hits every mark. And it's SHAFT, too, but it's the least... well, shaft-y show of theirs I've seen. The character animation isnt shafty at all, and the dialogue's not very either - only thing that clued me in was the backgrounds.

But yeah, gonna be a dark horse show for me I think. Every dish shown in the first episode was veg*n as well!!

Interestingly, swap the Udon for Soba from the 2nd dish cooked and it's pretty much something I cook at home sometimes. You'll spot what I mean :3

For a season that's got DRRR!!x2, Tokyo Ghoul 2 and continuing Kiseijuu & Shirobako, this season's (so far) the best one I've watched live. I really, really, really hope DRRR!!x2 isn't a let down, though, the first season's one of my favourites.
