Chimera Ant arc...it is coming.


It's catching up to the manga fast.

Togashi needs to get out of his 14th Hiatus which has lasted a year already...


Yeah it's getting really annoying. Not only is he taking a hiatus all the freaking time, his drawings have been awful. HxH could have been One Piece big if it weren't for all these hiatuses. 

The thing is Togashi unlike almost any other Mangaka doesn't use any assistants (I have no clue why) so everything you see is done by him and him alone. He did say he would start the manga up a few months after the movie came out (Since he wrote the script) so hopefully it restarts in a the next few months.

Nodame Cantabile, because it's like none of the above and you'll probably never watch unless pressured.

The story follows the Manga's which is good, the problem is they used horrid voice actors and the animation is beyond cringe worthy.

Haxton, never before have I found someone with whom I disagree some much with.


You are free to do so, and I might be glad to discuss some points you might attempt to raise in defense of this series which I almost wholeheartedly loathe.</slowpoke>

So far I have only tried watching Date A Live, despite hating the novel so far. After all, I only went as far as two and a half chapters in. Still coulnd't stomach it and shut down after two minutes or so. Not sure if I'm starting to hate generic, panty-flashing tsundere imoutos or just her with her dislikeable double personality, along with a worthless brother and an excuse of a premise.

Time to try Shingeki no Kyojin, Photo Kano, Yuyushiki...

Yeah, well... no. It's an awful story with two of the worst female characters I have seen. I'd be hard pressed to find someone more irritating and annoying than Yozora or Sena, and the fact the plot is revolving around them for a good deal of time isn't making things any better. Most of the time the series is lacking any form of plot or at least its progress, presenting episodes whose only purpose is to further the main traits/stereotypes of each of the characters instead.
I can't say the series has no worthwhile elements - Kodaka with his fear of attachments and Rika who saw through him are the only reason why I'm sticking with the novel, despite all my hate towards the two main females. It's not enough for me to call it even remotely good, though.
As for continuation - the anime adapted all of the novels up to and including eighth, while nine is not released yet.

Haganai is good. It tries to go against a lot of generic tropes of harem anime and be a more real show. While you do like Yozora or Sena, a lot of people do. They're incredibly popular characters. The show doesn't have a plot, as it's a slice of life comedy about people who don't have any friends. It's like complaining about lack of plot in K-ON. I'll say Rika isn't some sort of all knowing seer. EVERYONE knew what he was doing, which is why a big fuss was never made till the end of the show where he pressed his ignornance too far.

I personally loved both seasons and found them very funny and enjoyable. I did hate the second season's ending though.

 

Happy?
