I finished "Hataraku Maō-sama" (The Devil Is A Part Timer!)

It was done by White Fox.

It was a fun 13 episodes, I enjoyed it all. I got some good laughs from it, and the action was well animated. Everything was polished. The characters lacking a lot of development is the only flaw I had with it.

The story revolves around satan and one of his generals being sent to earth from his own world. His magic power is limited, and he has no way to get back. The pair begins to work on a way to get home. satan (known on Earth as Sadao Mao) gets a part time job at a fast food place named MgRonald. At the same time, a hero has chased them from their world, seeking to kill satan.

This is a great series that doesn't take itself seriously. The fights are especially interesting.

I would rate the series as an 8/10. I would recommend it, pretty fun to marathon.

Just started Ore no Imouto ga Konnani Kawaii Wake ga Nai and Akuma no Riddle. Not sure how I feel about OreImo yet, but so far I'm really digging Akuma no Riddle.

It is a random hiatus on blue exorcist, I'm going to curl up in a corner and quietly weep.

So basically you want a good mecha? FLCL, Neon Genesis Evangelion, Gurren Lagann are pretty much what I'd recommend, I don't really watch many mechas.

Manga and anime one of my favorite guilty pleasures.

My top 10 (determined by manga)

1. One Piece
2. Gurran Lagann
3. Dragonball
4. Negima
5. Magi
6. Rosario Vampire
7. Outlaw Star
8. Yu Yu Hakisho
9. Hunter x Hunter
10. Needless

I could name hundreds more but I'll leave it at that. Just finished what's currently available for Rosario Vampire. currently reading/keeping up with Naruto, Bleach, One Piece, Fairy Tail, Claymore, and Hunter X Hunter

I thought of reading fairytail again, mainly because I heard Rogue and Sting came back.

I know that when if read it, it's just going to be more of it's excessive fanservice, plot armor, bewbs, and friendship is magic bullcrap....

Hunter x Hunter set the bar too high, fairytail is nothing in comparison.

I mean plot armor isn't necessarily a bad thing, but Fairy Tail is pretty meh either way.

I agree Fairy Tail is kind of mediocre, but it's the sort of manga not meant to be taken very seriously. Even the author admitted that. lol

Plot armor on FairyTail's level is aweful. They literally pull every win out of their asses, and they ALWAYS win....

Assassination classroom is the next series on my list.

I love how every episode of Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei exposes a new side of Tatsuya that wasn't known in the previous episode.

Aka me ga kill episode 1 was great.

I really liked it. Covered the first chapter well and it was done great. Can't wait to see more.

I also watched Akagame Ga Kill, and found it a suitable start.

Also watched the premiere of the new SAO. A slow start, meant to set up the whole GGO thing. I'll give it a shot to see how they'd handle shooters, even though the Alfheim arc was subpar.

Also, Greed Island > SAO VRMMOs

I gave up all hope on the SAO series. I MIGHT watch the first episode if I get bored, but probably no more.

Not much happens in the first episode of the second season. Without spoiling anything, we have the establishment of the apparent antagonist for this Gun Gale Online arc, Kirito being tasked to investigate these virtual shenanigans, and some Kirito-Asuna stuff. A slow start with negligible amounts of action. I want to see how the shooter action will actually pan out, so I'm willing to stick around for at least the next couple of episodes.

I am far more eager for AGK, though. Seems I may have found myself a new series to keep track of. 8D

I've heard Akame isn't afraid to kill characters. No getting attached to anyone!

*resists drawing akame*

I won't spoil anything, but watching Akame ga Kill is going to be amusing because of those reasons after knowing what happens lol

Attack on Titan chapter 59 is ALREADY out. It feels like 58 just came out.

Great chapter, lots of character development for Jean.

Seems there is a search going for the remaining Survey Corps members. I want to know where Hanji and the other SC members are. It hasn't said.....they would probably be useful at this point.

Those military police guys seem like they will be good allies. With them, the group should be able to find every MP location that they need. the next chapter will be interesting, a full out battle between SC and MP will happen. **** is about to get real.

Shirtless Levi fanservice....We all knew it was coming.



I'm starting to think Blue Exorcist is on a hiatus or it is cancelled. There hasn't been a chapter since 57 back in may.

@ Sehnsucht Sehnsucht

This episode should have been the last episode of Season 1. Also, I enjoyed how the anime just blatantly throws spoilers in the ED. Mahouka for AoTS in the genre of comedy. I've never laughed so hard at such a pan faced destruction of a light novel that albeit is pretty awful, but not nearly as awful as the anime representing it.

Perhaps. I recall the end of S1 to have been fairly open-ended, with the dissemination of the Seed program. That wasn't a shoddy way to leave things, all things considered; it's simply the arc that preceded it that dragged it down.

As for the ending, I usually skip them, so I didn't stick around. I did see flashes of the GGO setting and whatnot (because I try to see the Next Episode previews). Maybe I'll go have another look at it.
