In case you haven't realized much, there's very few anime released now that are original.

With that being said, this is going to end up being one of my top shows of the fall besides Kampfer.

lol Trying to be a smart ass?

If you want to justify your reason for liking such a generic show, then that's fine. Just don't come out and point out the obvious so as to defend your enjoyment of the series; especially to those who has seen more anime than you.

No, but you putting me down by stating in such a matter of fact manner that you've seen more anime than me makes you one to a degree. Smartass doesn't have be someone stating the obvious, it can be someone who brags as well, which can move off into asshole territory. So, you call me a smartass, I'll give you a smartass answer and call you an asshole.

But, that's not why we're here. We're here to talk about this anime so. . .

Frankly radiantfire, I really don't care how many anime you have watched but there's been so many complaints over there being so many bad or generic anime released recently and it gets kinda tiring after awhile. Almost every topic in this site and many other forums have people proclaiming to the world that this anime is generic or unoriginal when people already know that and don't need someone else to remind them.

Surely you, who has seen more anime than I have, would know by now that the reason we have anime that has generic plots, pointless fanservice or large amounts of bloody pointless violence is that there are a large amount of people that watch these shows over other, more better shows. That's why we have dumbed down anime. Because a majority of anime fans don't want anime with comlicated or original storylines. The tired and true formula almost always wins in the end. The same can be said about the movies released in theaters. People make movies that have special effects and explosions more successful

Sora no Otoshimono has some great production and animation value to it. It's sure as hell better than Inuyasha the Final Acts (a non-filler season that feels like filler ironically). Sora follows the same trail most animes take. Yes it is generic, yes it is unoriginal, but it still does enough to make it entertaining.

I don't go into an anime show expecting for the anime I watch to be some mind breaking masterpiece or work of art. I want to be entertained. There there are some anime that fall into the category of entertaining anime that I do not like (Gurren Lagann, Needless, Naurto, Bleach) and watching them feel like some sort of chore.

Sora no Otoshimono has a simple plot that's easy to get into, predictable but you watch it anyway. Now, if it follows the manga, there will be some dark tone changes in it. That's the thing with Sora no Otoshimono. On the surface it looks like your standard fanservice anime. But lurking within it is a potentionally serious and dark tone. Ikaro's has a past that rears it's ugly head.

So, as a final note, if you can't get into such so called great anime such as Bakemongatari (which started off great but became repetitive as hell), it's someones the more simpler anime that we can watch and get into while we wait for a better one. Some would rather have mindless fanservice and action than 24 minutes of exposition that drones along and makes the 24 minutes feel longer than it is. Then again, that might be my ADHD talking.

Have a nice day, evening, morning or night wherever you are :)

Please don't take what I said just now seriously, you're entitled just as much to your opinion as I am to my own.

A few points:
- What you're saying does not excuse this show from being generic.
- You need not to state what the show is about. I've already been introduced to the manga quite a while back.
- Also, I enjoy Bakemonogatari.
- I fail to see the relevance of you stating you have ADHD.

In any case, I'll stop with this post. If you want to continnue, PM me or visit my profile.

Other than that, there's no need to be heated. People are going to say 'generic' to series they find generic. There's nothing wrong with that. If you don't like it, then that's your problem, lol.

Same here, but it made me laugh and it is short so lets see where it takes me.
I am the light and the darkness tossed away by fate.
I am hope and despair needed by all and to none.
I am CuresDestiny.
Fear me or Not it is all the same to me.

Wow, that was more generic than every other generic show in this new season. The worst one, too. It wasn't really bad, but not good, either. The quality of the drawings seemed rather good to me, though. The Angel is kind of cute, but that male lead is really forgettable and pathetic. There were some part I liked and a slightly bigger amount of others I hated. Quite some unexpected (but generic) drama in this first episode, too. Might give it another episode, if I'm bored.

Anyone know if this show is down in 720p or not? Or are all of them upscales? Trying to decide whether I want to wait for a 720p version or just watch the HorribleSubs 480p version.

It seems to be very good, with a good comedy. I want to watch next episode soon. I hope the blue haired girl will come soon, she looks like Hatsune Miku so I'm interested in how she will be. Otherwise, I like this Slice of Life/fantasy anime!

Exactly what I thought. Nothing as beautiful as Chobits but good enough, and it looks like it might be heading in the same direction of drama later on, maybe a bit more on the fantasy/supernatural side though.

Got my interest. Sticking with it.

So, generic, and highly expected, still, I think this might be somewhat fun to watch.
Sugata's strange x)

The most annoying part so far, is the term "Master". It sounds annoying as shit in engrish.

Also, somehow, this is the worst possible protagonist in this kind of show xD
And he's already screwed stuff up : D

I'm looking forward to the entrance of the smaller angel, with light blue hair (or turquoise or w/e). She seems more interesting that this first one.

Oh and btw, another annoying thing, is that distant look in the angel's eyes >.>

Well not really sure what to say about this Dears/Chobits lookalike, except that i frigging hate the voice of the male lead. His laughing/screaming or whatever the hell that was really took a toll on my eardrums...

Other than that I guess I'll take a few more eps to decide what to think, besides his voice the ep wasn't half bad.
