This is getting exciting!
Completed "Claymore"
>>>>In a world with living devils (Yoma) disguising themselves as humans the only people who can detect and fight them are the Claymores. The Claymores are women who have been implanted with yoma flesh to make themselves half-human, half-monster fighters to protect the people. Though the world sees them as monsters one boy sees them as human and decides to follow one on her travels around the world.
>>>>One of the shows where it was very enjoyable from the sheer amount of curveballs. Many of them i didn't even see them coming and usually I am pretty good at guessing the direction. The fights and episodes leave off cliff hangers that just can't be ignored and made it difficult to tear myself away from the show to finish my homework. It has a better use of darkness than Steins;Gate where it had enough darkness to tell us it is dark, but didn't make me unable to see what was going on. [Lots of Blood!]
Going to watch "Girls und Panzer" (Kinda sad right now. I am thinking some moe/action may cheer me up. Though, I don't exactly know what I will find in this. :3)
[Military School] (12 episodes)
Lastly, Attack on Titan final episode in 3 hours :D :D :D
Edit: Going to watch "Kill La Kill" this Fall since it is made by the same creators who made "Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann"

I'm near finished with an anime Tuna showed me called Shinsekai Yori
It's basically about a civilization and the rules they implemented and the lies they fed the people to keep them complacent after humans developed telekinesis called "Cantus" Really interesting on it's own, but the story has so much emotion and the characters feel so explored. I highly recommend

Completed "Girls und Panzer"
>>>>Such a great anime for tanks. Very educational surprisingly. I didn't care for the girls too much, but the tanks and tank battles simply gorgeous! The tanks were such finely detailed and the battles so interesting and filled with History puns, tank parts, and fire that i couldn't stop my heart beating out of my chest after every episode. I want a second season just to see the art again, but it ended so exceptionally i think i will stick with the single season. I truly did not expect to get this much excitement from this anime that i did. A definite watch!
Going to watch "Btooom"
My roommate tasked me with watching "Btooom" and I tasked him with "Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann".
[Action Sci-fi Phsychological] (12 episodes)
Fall season watching: "Kill La Kill" "Log Horizon" "Unbreakable Machine Doll"
FYI vati180 monogatari is still on going if you didn't know. >_> It is good though returning to what made it great in "Bakemonogatari".

Wikipedia says there are 26 episodes total.
>>>>I actually am enjoying this season really getting a deeper look into the symbolism for the "spirits" that reside in the anime. Like the crab ailing Senjougohara represents the weight of emotions that provide us pain. She lost her weight because she didn't want to acknowledge the hurt that her own mother has caused her making her lose her real weight. She gained her weight back when she realized that the emotions she didn't want to carry are ones that make us human. From that perspective we can say that the people who are ailed with spirits thinking they should cut off certain emotions to be "normal" are actually the strange ones. (This is pretty deep anime man, and it took me 4 seasons to figure out how deep it was. sheesh...)
>>>>Arararararagi-kun is really a big pervert at times xD
26 EPISODES, SAY WHAT. That's like Nise and Bake put together. I guess I will put it on hold for now until all episodes are out. Thanks for telling me xD. Probably gonna watch Baccano then cause infernofox recommended it to me.
Edit: K1ngHoward Btooom! is amazing. I just wish there was a second season
26 episodes makes me happy.26 EPISODES, SAY WHAT. That's like Nise and Bake put together. I guess I will put it on hold for now until all episodes are out. Thanks for telling me xD. Probably gonna watch Baccano then cause infernofox recommended it to me.

Technically Bakemonogatari and Nisemonogatari are one season and that is why this is the "second season." I see it as the 4th season going by arcs coming out (Bakemonogatari, Nisemongatari, Nekomonogatari Kuro, Monogatari Series: Second Season)
Glad i could help though and I am already halfway through "Btooom!." Pretty good though a few episodes made me feel uneasy *cough* girl's backstory *cough*
Superchops Never heard of it, but i can probably place it on my list for later :3 Wiki says it is only 5 episodes (30 minutes each) OVA which i could be knocked out easily. :3
Completed "Btooom!"
>>>>Ryouta is a "NEET" who just plays games 24/7, but not just any game, but Btooom! A game that relies on the person's use of bombs to kill their opponents. Life was good until he was whisked away to an island to play Btooom! in real life and the only way off the island is to collect 7 chips including his own so he can return home. Each person on the island has a chip embedded in them and you must kill the people to get the chip. A great action player that shows off how crazy some people can be when ones life is at stake and the only way off the island is to kill or be killed.
>>>>The anime brought up interesting points as to the line between real life and games. They are two separate mediums and can not be confused. Though what we do online can only affect us as much as we can put into it. Many people now-a-days equate violent video games to becoming a violent person in the making, but that is not the case with gamers since crazy people just be crazy and you can't blame a game, but the parents who raised them. Our interactions in games are real and what we put into the game reflects upon our own lives and grants us our own experiences that we can learn upon. Brings me back to Kirito and Asuna where Asuna viewed being locked in a game as losing time in the real world, while Kirito viewed this virtual "prison" as a new reality that they can gain new experiences from.
>>>>Liked the show, liked the ending, liked the romance, did not like the ending (why is this not longer??). Maybe a tad too many crazy people and awkward scenes. (awkward scenes that involve Himiko and men ._.)
Going to watch "Squid Girl" both seasons because this:
Is cute as all hell :3

Psychosomatic
I liked Chaos;Head, but I felt that way too much was cut from the VN its based on. Stein;Gate and Robotics;Notes did a much better job. (Granted, I haven't played R;N's VN, but I've heard they did well.)Just finished Chaos:Head. It was really interesting.
Also, C;H had about half the number of episodes as the others, so it's understandable I guess. Still.
I like to give every anime a chance to see what it has in store. I mean it is 5 episodes and as long as it doesn't resemble school days in the first episode alone i might continue.
Edit: Dropped Yumekui Merry. I just didn't like it lol.
Going to watch:
Neon Genesis Evangelion
Genres: Action, Dementia, Drama, Mecha, Sci-Fi, Psychological
I remember watching this when I was 10 years old. I rented the DvD at the library and I really enjoyed it. I only saw half of it so I plan on re watching the whole series.
Oh my gosh...
"Kill La Kill" is epic :O
I knew it would be good just because it was being made by the creators of "Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann", but dear gosh I am still hyped after watching only one episode. Someone fired the starting pistol for a track race and it comes racing out of the start line with a flipping jet-pack. Can't wait for the next episodes to come out :3 (mature content warning)
(Hope it is 24 episodes) (I am calling it, this will be the most popular series for Fall 2013)
Best legal site to watch it on is "Daisuki.net"

Watched "Sword of the Stranger" (Dub)
[Action Historical Samurai] (Movie: 103 minutes)
