And we have the first joke of the season. I dropped Haruchika so hard, it almost went through the floor. Actually hard to believe that this shit show was directed by the same guy who did Tari Tari.

Yeah. Somehow ever since I finished highschool and with my exams, my schedule to watch anime every week got ruined.

Woo, first anime of the season and it looks like a keeper. Haruchika was fun and interesting. A promising start.

Hm true, Kizaru did do a lot of kicking. I could see a Sanji fighting him. It'd definitely need to be a Haki user for sure. Though if Usopp was up against him...and sniped him travelling at the speed of light....that would be crazy awesome. I suppose I can see a variety of options for the admirals...other than Sakazuki who has to fight a main character.

Do you think Rokugyu will be a new character? I was kinda curious if it was actually a known vice-admiral or commodore, like Hina, Momonga, or that guy with the huge hair (Strawberry?). I guess the problem there is that the 3rd admiral has been built up to be so strong, and picking a random officer wouldn't have the same impact.

I definitely think the Kaido fight will be more complicated than Luffy using a new Gear or Zoro cutting something that can't be cut. Seeing Usopp pull it off would be interesting for sure, his fights are always fun to watch. Not sure how he can beat an immortal, but he'll figure something out...like blowing him up and sealing him in a pit...heh...

Logia users have always been built up to be overpowered from the start, while the Paramecias and Zoans seem to have more growth potential, which is why I think the Strawhats have lacked one until now. Though I would like to see one join though to add more variety to the crew. Maybe Caesar will be swayed after all their travels? Maybe Crocodile will return to join the New Monster Trio with Jinbe? I think Aokiji's end goal is to reform the world government still...even if he is currently a pirate...but I think both he and Smoker will ally themselves with the Strawhats several times before the end.

So, yeah.  Here is a list of what I think are some underrated anime.

Soredemo Machi wa Mawatteiru (And Yet the Town Moves): It's about a maid cafe.  I'm not sure what to say beyond that except that it's a very surreal brand of humor.  The characters can go from normal to very wierd at a moment's notice.  I loved it.

Sakasama no Patema (Patema Inverted):  An interesting movie about a girl who lives underground.  The reason why she lives underground is that her people, unlike the surface dwellers, seem to be immune to gravity.  I was really impressed with this.

Nagasarete Airantou:  It's a harem anime but I found it to be funny and entertaining.  It's about a boy who washes ashore on an island populated with only females.  The culture is also stuck several hundred years in the past.

Muteki Kanban Musume (Ramen Fighter Miki):  I love this one.  Miki is a bad-ass ramen delivery girl always up for a fight.  The only one who can beat her is her mom, who is tried of Miki's trouble-making.  Miki is hilarous.

Renkin San-kyuu Magical? Pokaan:  Both cute and sexy!  Monster girls!  Yay!

Abenobashi Mahou Shotengai (Magical Shopping Arcade Abenobashi):  I consider this one to be way underrated.  It's hilarious yet it has a serious theme running through it about death and the consequences of running away from reality.  Two kids, with the real world holding the painful moments of growing up, find themselves falling from one crazy dimension to the next.  It was a fantastic adventure.

Bamboo Blade:  About a High School Kendo club and the very small, quiet, otaku girl who happens to be a prodigy.  It has some really good characters who each have their own motivations.  Also, Tama-chan is incredibly adorable.

Bungaku Shoujo (Book Girl):  A rather mysterious and melancholy tale about a girl who literally consumes books.

Gokujo:  It's vulgar, ridiculous, and hilarous.  It's a bunch of short episodes about how girls really act.  Well, if they're like the main character and have the manners of a thug.  Warning - Girls Behaving Badly.

I'm tired now.

I recently watched Book Girl! And I thought that it would be some nice, clam, romance anime (Something like Kimi ni todoke). But i was tottaly wrong =D I think I missed one of the genres as "Mystery". Sooo I was very surprised with some of the things that happened there =D Which I think made the show more enjoyable for me. 

Like that part where that short hair girl (Who was in the hospital) and the boy tried to kill themselves at the rooftop. I was like WOW!!!! This shit is getting REAL! =D ANd then she tried to kill herself again! (the third time) when she jumped in front of the Truck! ANd by that time i was just MINDBLOWN!!!! Then There was that last part where she tries that her mind was some 5-10 years old. And then that girl Bitch fight here! 

Seriously!!! That chick is fucking CRAZY!!!!! 

See, told ya so. Now who you're gonna believe with Haruchika? :P

That's exactly what I thought.  "This is so charming!"  Then it kept getting heavier and heavier.  I liked the title character a lot, though.  I was just surprised at how dark it got compared to the soothing atmosphere it generated to begin with.

I wish there was more, especially about the actual Book Girl.  I should look into the light novels.

If there was any doubt that ERASED was going to be the best of the season, I think it's gone now.

agreed thus far!
