All Time Fauvorite Anime
Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica
In all my years of watching anime, I would never have imagined that my favourite of all time would be a mahou shoujo. Typical mahou shoujo animes tend to include elements that I tend to greatly dislike: paper-thin plot, enemy/monster of the week, superficial enemies with no reasoning behind their motives and a far too naive outlook on the world. Madoka basically overturned the genre, yet managed to distill the essence of the genre: that it is an anime about hope. As I like to tell others, I don't like Madoka because it is a mahou shoujo. It just happens that my favourite anime falls into that category. To me, Madoka is the epitome of anime: it has visual flair, a stellar soundtrack, a gripping original plot, a succinct cast with great character development, emotionally engaging and most importantly, immaculate pacing. Action sequences were separated by great moments of emotion and character development. There was a lot of imagery, symbolism and foreshadowing and a great use of colours. Finally, this anime would not have been able to achieve the level of immersion if it were not for Kajiura Yuuki's masterful soundtrack. Not once did my mind stray while watching this anime, a feat no other anime has yet to achieve.
Yet despite this, I am always hopeful there will be another anime to be able to wear the #1 mantel that Madoka so truly deserves.
All Time Favourite Anime Episode
Mahou Shoujo Madoka★Magica Episode 10 - I Won't Rely On Anyone Any Longer
The most emotionally intense 24 minutes of anime I have ever seen. Emotional rollercoaster paced to perfection.
All Time Favourite Character
Akemi Homura
Three words: Awesome. Badass. Adorable.
The goddess still reigns uncontested for the last two years.







Don’t forget.
Always, somewhere,
someone is fighting for you.
As long as you remember her,
you are not alone.

Current Season (Spring 2013) Favourite Anime
Suisei no Gargantia
After an anemic winter showing, Gargantia is one of the first anime this year to spark my interest. Great soundtrack, visuals and animations. Subtle humour is a nice touch.
Side note: Reading Aku no Hana reactions are particularly hilarious (I actually don't mind the character models or aesthetic that much).
Current Season (Spring 2013) Favourite Character
Chamber - Suisei no Gargantia
Yes, you read that right. The mech suit.

Your comments regarding "Aku no Hana" are clearly stated
as far as I can see. You are not "setting up a straw man."
What you wrote makes 100% sense to me.
I didn't want to comment directly on the thread because
the guy who criticized you makes a lot of silly comments.
I don't want to "feed" him. So I never comment on
anything that he says. Most other people also ignore him.

Well, I come from a rather... wealthy family, so... I could probably have enough extra money by then to get it... Even seems like a bit of a bargain to me considering all it includes...

A Milla figure, music, and an art book... Very tempting... Wonder how much it will cost...

My 2nd fave, if not tied for first. At fist I wasn't really that into her, but after re-watching Madoka (which means you'll watch it from Homura's pov) I came to that realization.

Ah, so they finally set a proper date? Thanks for letting me know! A bit before my birthday, hmm? That's convenient, I suppose...

You and me have the same anime and episode as favorite of all time.

Xillia is apparently available for pre-order now. We don't appear have a release date yet though.

Oh yeah, I saw that article a few days ago. I was quite amused and impressed. I always knew Madokami existed. We just needed to prove it to the world, and there is the proof!

Watched Kotoura-san. I quite enjoyed it. Thanks for the recommendation!

Yeah similarly, I really loved ep 1 of Kotoura-san and Sasami, also watching Gintama, Tamako Market, Haganai Next, and OreShura. I'm not sure if you've checked it out before, but I'm a big fan of AKB0048 right now as well. It's a completely odd premise that was off-putting by description, but I feel Satelight has done an amazing job with making the setting feel believable and the characters interesting. If you haven't already, give it a shot. First episode moved me more than many series do by their conclusion.

I actually watched it yesterday, loving it so far! Anything else you're following this season?

Why thank you! My life is now pleasant again...

I like rom-coms, so I most likely will not be disappointed. At least now I have a fabulous new hard drive and can actually watch videos. So, I shall watch that as soon as I have some free time.

yeah, graces combat system was so much fun. I also hope they have unintentional funny mystic artes. Instant BALLS! and a funny character. Pascals lines were gold :P
xD

Tales of Xillia supposedly the best of the series :)
