well then you should check out yuruyuri. it's kinda tame but still really funny. and i'm pretty sure there's not a single guy character. i mean it's an all girls middle school they go to. and maybe bakemonogatari if you want some sexual harassment of a loli :D

I thought the random sex scene was really pointless and narmy.

even though yuru yuri doesn't have yuri untill the last episode bakemonogatari/nisemonogatari does have some boring part and I think it was unecessary for it to have a sequal

kashimashi girl meets girl is the best yuri series out there

well i for one enjoy it. i really love how the dialog is written and i love every one of the characters. and i'm rather enjoying nisemonogatari and can't wait for the prequel movie that's supposed to come out. though, to be honest, i haven't really been paying that close of attention to that one. so, for all i know, it could be out already.

on a similar note, when does the K-on! movie come out on BD?

Judging from how long it usually takes for them to come out on discs, youre going to be waiting a loooooong time.

Someone bringing up Kashimashi saying it's the greatest yuri series ever? Sure is 2007 in here. I still need to watch that, though.

Nisemonogatari is easily the best of the winter lineup. The whole show is made of characters using play on words and totally fucking with the audience in anyway possible. It's the sort of unorthodox craft that can make a show so compelling, despite how much of a pretentious wreck it can come off as.

I do like the show but I don't think the show needed a sequal and maria holic, sora no otoshimono, kampfer, and initial d does

The dialogue and humor are good, but the fanservice just got so ridiculous I dropped it.
I'll probably just pick it up one day another time after I've grown to tolerate it better.

well i actually like fan service of that sort. i kinda see what you mean though. it is a bit heavier in the new season. I wonder If he'll be adding more girls to his secret harem... I mean his sisters don't really count and so far there have been no new female characters :/

shits going down in nisemonogatari now

Trust me, he's like this all the time, don't let him under your skin.

As for Kashimashi, I would say that it's the best yuri anime out there, even though I'm not too familiar with the shojo-ai genre I would obviously recommend the watching the TV version first. I've been busy with other stuff recently, so I couldn't enjoy all of the anime that I wanted to see, but I think I've found some decent ones.

Usagi Drop: I'm going to be honest, I'm generally not into any of the cutesy slice of life anime. But this one, I'll gladly make an exception. For those who don't know, it's basically a story about a bachelor who raises his grandfather's illegitiame kid, and then it goes on from there. This is a pretty heartwarming series with excellent character development and a nice change of pace compared to all of the excessive blood and fanservice anime that's out there.

Sengoku Basara: Honestly, I simply took a flyer on this anime, thinking it was going to be a adaptation off of a videogame series that I've never heard of {which it is BTW}, and I got a kick out it. Is it anything special or revolutionary? No, but it's action packed, and so over the top with the characters and animation, that it would give Gurren Laggan a run for it's money for overall craziness.

Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai: I won't mince words here, it's a fanservice anime to the max. Really more than a very guilty pleasure more than anything else, but as guilty pleasures go, it's not half-bad.

It's just faithful, most of the fanservice is actually written into the novels.

yeah, it has quite a bit but still more tame than i thought it was going to be. but it does have references to like every really popular anime from haruhi to eva to oreimo.

I'm aware of that, I just thought I'd be able to tolerate it.
Oh well, I've got other stuff to watch this season anyway.

Youre going to be waiting quite a while since the bluray release is always months later.

Fodderbaka, it won't be that long.

I heard a while back that it might be march but just seems a bit too soon to me. I'd love it if that were the case but I doubt it.

CONSPIRACY

:still trying to figure out this new layout...

So I've been re-watching 2x2 =Shinobuden. Man I'd forgotten how good that one is. I've watched nothing but new anime lately. Si, it's nice to go back and watch some oldies every once in a while. Up next will be Rurouni Kenshin I believe.

yeah, and? that was a long time ago for me. it was actualy before i really started to get into anime.

b-b-but it came out over ten years ago! HOW DARE YOU SAY THAT ABOUT MY FAVOURITE ANIME blah blah blah...

that does raise a good question as to what you can classify an anime as an oldie. i say between 20-25 years +.(original air date)

That's like saying an anime released in 2004 would be considered an 'oldie' to you if you only started watching the stuff in 2008.

Kids think anything over 5 years ago is old, dusty and needs to be replaced with the next forgettable title that grabs their attention. It's a complete disregard to any past credible works, some which probably had a large influence in the shows you watch today.

It's a train-of-thought that should be discarded, all it does is provide a massive disservice to yourself and works that deserve a little more recognition.

no, i really think you're blowing this waaay out of proportion. who cares what one person considers old. I'm in no way saying that older anime sucks and newer anime is better. sure, there're some new anime I like but that doesn't mean that it's all I watch, or all i care about. And it's not as if the first anime I've seen was back then but i just never really thought about it as being anime. they were just cartoons. whether it was voltron when i was little or even outlaw star and dbz when i got a bit older. What I mean by getting into anime I mean when I started actively searching for the stuff online. I think it was about 2006 when I started watching bleach. Also, keep in mind I AM older than you.

No, you weren't. But it's still foolish to call Ninja Nonsense an 'oldie' when it's still relatively modern. Your personal definition of what an 'oldie' is, isn't relevant because it's not very old at all. All I'm suggesting is re-think what you consider old.

Hell, let's just go ahead and call Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex an 'oldie', because it came out in 2002.

Also, keep in mind I AM older than you.

Really, now? Could have fooled me.
