The ~dere Thread; but mostly the tsun (& never the yan) (w/some anime) CHECK 1st POST

[Minato]

I've waited this long for the anime to finish. I'm seeing it through to the end.

 

[MewtwoMaster2002]

While I finished reading the manga, the last chapter was a rushed translation from someone who just wanted to share the ending. The grammar mistakes bugged me. With that said, I still plan on watching the anime to the end because that's how I started. Also, I feel like it is expressed better in animated form.

 

[Minato]

Happy that it's gotten an anime since the manga wasn't too bad

Crossing my fingers for a studio to do it justice. I want the Prison School anime to be good

 

[soju]

i cant wait to see the animated goodness and fanservice that are joe's ants

 

[MewtwoMaster2002]

Kimi Uso just ended. Some parts were underwhelming compared to reading the manga, but some parts still hit me in the feels.

 

[Minato]

That last episode of KimiUso was so good. ;__;

 

[Deleted member]

That episode of KimiUso made me cry so much. I hardly ever cry during anime.

That looks so good. My fingers are crossed.

 

[Minato]

I'll leave this here

 

[MewtwoMaster2002]

If you don't mind me asking, @ Minato , what anime is your avatar from?

 

[Minato]

If you don't mind me asking, @ Minato , what anime is your avatar from?

It's Kiriya Aoi from Aikatsu.

 

[Teczer0]

That last episode of KimiUso was so good. ;__;

I had to sit in front of my computer and think about it for like 30 mins. It was so emotional ;_;

>everyone talking about shigatsu

meanwhile im just all


****ing 85% for years

 

[MewtwoMaster2002]

And Saenai/Saekano just ended today. The series was much more entertaining than I expected.

 

[Deleted member]

I'm so behind on a lot of winter anime I need to catch up before the spring season starts. I hope I'm able to. D:

 

[Perfect Chaos]

Man... I haven't posted in here in so long.

 

[Xyzz]

That is not Haruhi. Who are you and what did you do to PC? :D

 

[Perfect Chaos]

I changed it to Mikuru (due to her being my least favorite SOS Brigade member) and my main to Zelda at the start of April Fool's, but then SmashBoards had to ruin my joke with their Shaq joke... <_<

And that ":D" makes it seem like you're happy that I was replaced by an imposter. LOL

 

[Xyzz]

I just agree with Haruhi that a world where people get replaced by alien impostors would be way more interesting!

 

[Morin0]

I'm watching Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya for the first time. (I'm on the 4th episode.) I like it so far.

Before this, I watched Chaos;Head. It reminded me of Madoka and Welcome to the NHK lol.

 

[Perfect Chaos]

I heard C;H's anime adaptation was a very bad one. Have neither seen it or read the VN, so I can't judge for myself. As for Haruhi, what order are you watching it in? (In other words, is the show jumping all over the place in story or not? XD)

EDIT: And someone actually decided to keep the Shaq avatar, huh...

 

[Morin0]

The Shaq avatar was too good to lose.

Chaos;Head was interesting. I watched it all in one sitting lol.

Oh! I'm a longtime lurker of this thread and I remember reading about watching an anime show in a different order than normal I think. Is this the one? lol. I'm watching the show in order of the episode numbers, so I'm currently in episode 5 of season one after watching episode 1, 2, 3, and 4 in that order.

 

[Perfect Chaos]

I'm currently in episode 5 of season one after watching episode 1, 2, 3, and 4 in that order.

That doesn't really say which order you're watching it in, since episode numbers can be numbered differently depending on which system you use. That's way just saying, "I watched episode 5 after watching the first four," so it's not very informative as to the order that you're watching it in. LOL
Probably better off using events that happened or episode name.
The order that it aired in (broadcast order) would be what I'd suggest first-time watchers to watch it in, since it puts the climax at the end and also gives you the feel of how weird it was for others to watched it early on. That order goes...
1: The Adventures of Mikuru Asahina (weird movie episode) [chronologically episode 11]
2: The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya I (part 1 of main arc) [chronologically episode 1]
3: The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya II (part 2 of main arc) [chronologically episode 2]
4: The Boredom of Haruhi Suzumiya (baseball episode) [chronologically episode 7]
5: The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya III (part 3 of main arc) [chronologically episode 3]

If the order is like that from what you're watching, then it'll be the broadcast order. Also, the preview for the broadcast order would have both Haruhi and Kyon talking during it, which each of them giving (for the most part) a different number for the episode. Kyon gives the number simply in order or broadcast, while Haruhi gives the number of where it would go chronologically. If the preview just has Yuki talking, then that's the preview for the DVD order (which is just chronological order but with the movie placed in front).

/me-talking-a-bunch-about-Haruhi-again

 

[Xyzz]

Personally I skipped the previews :D

And I don't really think there's any value added by not watching it chronologically. Maybe there's nothing "wrong" with that either, but I just don't see the point.

 

[Morin0]

Okay. Then this is indeed the one you can watch in a different order. I think I am watching it in the broadcast order. The movie was the first episode. I'm watching it on some anime site, so I am going off on the order they have it in. After I finish an episode, I click on a link at the bottom taking me to the next episode. I don't know any better. lol

 

[Minato]

Broadcast order is best order for the first time.

 

[Perfect Chaos]

The main point is not ending the season with Someday in the Rain. While that episode does give a nice, mellow atmosphere to end it, for the first time someone watches it, ending on something like that makes it seem too subdued compared to the rest of the story. The climax at the end of the Melancholy arc is so much better to have at the end than halfway through the season, too.

And the broadcast previews were one of the more memorable things for me.

Okay. Then this is indeed the one you can watch in a different order. I think I am watching it in the broadcast order. The movie was the first episode.

The movie episode being first isn't the only thing in determining the order, though, as both DVD order and broadcast order started with it. The fourth episode is the first thing to differentiate the two (aside from the preview, that is).

EDIT: My internet went down (area-wide, apparently) the day that Yuki-chan airs... At least it's back up again not too long after.

 

[Morin0]

I see. Well, episode 5 was Yuki telling Kyon that her and Haruhi are aliens.

 

[Perfect Chaos]

Okay, then that's definitely broadcast order. Would have been easier if you would have just confirmed that you've seen a baseball episode.
And Yuki never says Haruhi is an alien. Not sure how you got that.

 

[Morin0]

I might be recalling wrong.

 

[Minato]

No way is Yamada and the Seven Witches only 12 episodes long, right? Is MAL just putting 12 as a placeholder at the moment or something? They're going to need it to be 2 cour.

 

[asianaussie]

i would guess placeholder

why is kanahana in everything

 

[Minato]

At least she didn't get typecasted in Yamada.

 

[MewtwoMaster2002]

I thought question marks were used as placeholders.

 

[Minato]

I thought question marks were used as placeholders.

Usually. It says 12 on the site, but sometimes they just put that as the placeholder instead of question marks. They show all seven witches, so I'm going to assume it's 2 cour. They wouldn't be able to cram it into 12 otherwise.

I've been reading that they are rushing things, so maybe they'll skip a lot. 2 cour is preferable though.

 

[Shaya]

You act like this is a bad thing

 

[asianaussie]

im kind of tired of her

she's not even in my top three VAs

#teamhayami

 

[Shaya]

I am probably keeping my kanahana quotient lower these days, but as long as it's not just regurgitated type casting it's usually a pleasurable experience.
