I thought Ritsu was awesome. But she doesn't really shine as a stand-alone character. :(
I really don't see too many Mugi fans though. But I do remember someone here being a Mugi fan though.

Also, I'm finally caught up with Madoka!
Guess that means I need to hurry up and get started on stuff that you (and many others) told me to finish.
Stuff you and other told me to finish/watch are: DtB, S&W, F/SN VN, GTO, Infinite Stratos, Black Lagoon, Katanagatari, Nanoha, and Ookami.
... By the way that you worded this, it sounded like you were holding out and waiting for me to catch up to it, in order for you to start watching those things, as if we made a contract or something... /人 ‿‿ 人\

I really like the plot of the series and am excited to see what will happen to Lawrence and Holo(horo?) when they get to the next town. I'm only on episode 5 season 1 right now.
The official romanization is "Holo". (You even see it written within the anime that way in S2.) I recently marathoned a rewatching of S&W S1 and the first half of S2 (since I didn't really like 2nd half of S2, but the first half I like more than S1). I hope you continue to like it as you go along.

@Tec0: The periodic table image is one I've seen a while ago, but I haven't seen the crossover one. But that's one's just weird, since Yui looks like she's cosplaying a Hitagi+Tsubasa hybrid.

Everyone's favorite ends up being Mio at the start.
Mio was my fave but then Azusa came in so yeah... lol
Pfft...mine started as being Yui, then went to Mio and stayed that way...

I thought Ritsu was awesome. But she doesn't really shine as a stand-alone character. :(
I really don't see too many Mugi fans though. But I do remember someone here being a Mugi fan though.
If there are Ryou fans out there, then Mugi fans aren't that surprising... ;)

And WTF Minato. I taught for a moment that I changed my avatar accidentally to the Sasaki cover for a moment there when I first saw your post (since my main wallpaper on my computer right now is a splice of the two vol10 covers right now). Oh well, I like now we both have the two boths, now. Two halfs on a whole!

At first my favorite was Mio, then Azu-nyan, then Yui and stayed Yui.

Mio and Azu-nyan have their cute moments as all the girls do, but Yui is cute ALL THE TIME!

There's a contest next week I'm entering and if I win I'll get an awesome Yui figure. I swear if I win it, I might cry a little :embarrass:

If I was holding out on you watching one anime, it would probably be Eva or something.
Next week is midterms for me so I should have more free time after that... hopefully...

LOL, it looks pretty good side by side. Makes me want volume 10 even more now though.

The story of how this thread came to be called that is quite something, too.

This thread was originally started by Steel2nd (Steel now), as a K-ON! thread when the anime first came out. K-ON!'s cuteness caused this thread to get a fast stream of posts about it every week as more episodes aired. Afterwards, when the K-ON! hype died down, Steel changed the thread to the KyoAni/Key thread due to recommendations from people, since Kyoto Animation and Key (visual novel studio that Kyoto Animation has done many adaptations from) were the primary things that were talked about at this point.
Occasionally, Steel would change the thread title on a whim, often (more like always) to something witty. This thread would on occasion go off topic quite a bit, and a couple of times, mods/admins (Mic128 one of the time) had to come it to tell us that this isn't meant to be a social group, and that if we wish to continue, this will be locked and we can continue by making a social group about it. (The funny thing is, Steel had previous made a social group for a similar purpose to this, but no one posts there with the existence of this thread due to the combination of no way of getting notified of posts there at the time, as well as, for some people, not 1up-ing posting count.) We would also get told to change the thread title to something more sensible and specific so that people will actually know what the thread was about (I think it was called the "Moe Thread" at that point in time). (When the 2nd season of K-ON! aired, I suggested to Steel that we should temporary change the thread title to K-ON!, and talk about it (exactly) like everyone did before, for nostalgia's sake. That was something memorable for me. LOL)
Time passed, and Steel somehow abandoned anime (he was so into it before, too), so he, being an Administrator at this point, decided to transfer the thread to me, changing the first post of the thread to be mine, after everyone in this thread (everyone that spoke up, anyway) agreeing to this. At the point, this thread was called "The Tsundere Thread (with some anime)". After the transfer, I decided to be "less" discriminate towards the other ~dere archtypes, so I changed the thread title to "The ~dere Thread ...but mostly the tsun-type (with some anime...)". But Steel, being very anti-yandere, quickly noticed and wasn't having any of that, so he added the "and never the yan)" part. A lot of people, including myself, though it was funny (even the yandere-lovers laughed), so I kept it as that...
...and here were are.

The title didn't often matter unless it's for the purpose of informing random posters that decide to drop in, only to never be heard of again afterwards, as regular posters of the thread know exactly what this thread is about, and how we conduct business 'round here. New posters eventually adapt over time if they stay long enough, and when they do, it' becomes 2nd nature of them.

Such a thread title helps weed out attention from people that we'd rather not have here... XD (I remember a strong disliking of "Narutards" and the like amongst many people here.)


Hmmm... I've typed up the history of this thread a couple of times already for curious new posters of the thread... Maybe I should just add this to the first post.

she was emo moeblob and she was main heroine in the anime

meaning she made steel sick too

i mean he has to deal with emogeek (baw i'm bad at a bad geemu: barlw) AND a human-sized Gokicha?

i'd feel sorry for him too

but it's all behind us now

he's busy being white and that's fine too

obv :012:

This is the first time I've read that. Do you have that saved to a document or do you write it from scratch?
I type it from scratch...every...freaking...time... (So I'm glad I decided to put it in the first post, now. :laugh:)
i started out as a mio fan and ended as a mio fan
I was only a Yui fan for like 2 episodes...and even then, Mio was like barely behind at that point.

How can you be anti-Nagisa? She may have gotten sick and stuff, but she was still a very nice person. Just doesn't make sense.
Well I can't say anything for Steel but for me, it's simply the fact that ALL the other girls were better than her and yet she was the main character.

Kyou is god tier Tsundere.

Oh man I did the Kotomi arc last night in Clannad VN and took like 10 awesome screen shots. Might need to find where I put them lol... Kotomi is at least better than Ryou. Right Jungle? :troll:

Double post due to seriousness....

According to a post on the Madoka webpage, the broadcast of Madoka is suspended until further notice. They’ll update the webpage with the new schedule once they know it. Also, all of the BD/DVD have been pushed back a month.

People have been making some bad jokes about Walpurgis and the tsunami… Maybe there really is a big flood in eps 11/12 and now they have to re-animate?

DAMN YOU KYUUBEI!!!

Top 3 tsundere's:
1) Taiga
2) Kyou
3) This is a tough one between Louise, Haruhi and Hinagiku but I'm gonna say Hinagiku.

I don't think that's the case. I think Shaft is just taking advantage of this time and working on the animation for the last 2 episodes more.
Shaft anime usually gets pretty bad by the last third of the series and on *cough*Nadeko Snake*cough*.

And considering what the last two episodes are about, they can't get away with a slideshow battle.

As for my top 3 tsunderes, I'll post that after later. lol

Maybe the last episode will end up airing 1 year after the premier of Madoka (i.e. around the beginning of 2012), like a certain other SHAFT'ed show... :p

And I'm guessing Minato's top-3 tsunderes are Shana, Hinagiku, and Kagami? (I just looked at his current MAL top-characters list, but that may be out of date.)

I guess mine would be Kyou, Taiga, and Mikoto. Haruhi isn't truly a tsundere (hence her absence); people have argued either way, but it's really hard to place her, since she's such a unique character.

EDIT: And I recently looked into the next season in-depth, and there's 11 shows that I'll surely pick-up, and 6 additional ones that I might. I'm going to be really busy...
