You should all watch Medaka Box, it's a beautiful satire of the shonen jump formula with amazing animation, story, and uh
character development ![]() but seriously there's not an easy way to explain it without spoiling things important to the plot, so here's the page from MAL http://myanimelist.net/anime/11761 Season 2 is much better though, manga is infinitely better. ____________________ "Comics that go longer than ten volumes just coast on their success. At least that's my theory. And this has already gone three volumes over that. So just watch. I'll end this manga before the anime starts." |

For whatever reason I felt like watching this very anime all over again.
Yeah... :/ ____________________ |

Time to post my opinions. I think a good anime that people should check out is Hyouka. Basically the main group of characters solves mysteries. What made it for me was the main character, HΕtarΕ Oreki. Simply put, he is about the laziest person ever and doesn't care to do much. He often gets pushed into solving mysteries he could care less about. When push comes to shove, however, he is able to solve mysteries solid. It is pretty entertaining and it is pretty high on my list. Its kind of funny that I bothered to check out Hyouka to begin with. I like genres geared more toward the horror/suspense/psychological, all of which Hyouka is not. Those genres just suck me right in. I mean, look at the following clip from Mirai Nikki (its not really a spoiler, its like the 3rd episode in of 26) <object width="560" height="315"><embed src="//www.youtube.com/v/7eOHhg4WwCo?version=3&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="560" height="315" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object> How could you not want to keep watching it?? Although, to be fair, such scenes by themselves don't make a good story. I thought that Mirai Nikki was ok. Not great, not bad, but just ok. Also still hoping that Girlydragon will eventually watch the Umineko anime. Curious of Girlydragon's opinion of it since I am still wondering if the anime just rubbed me the wrong way and how it compares to the VN. Considering it has been a while since I watched the anime, its becoming fuzzy. I guess that's enough crap to say for one post. ____________________ "Consider this a privilege.

Originally posted by JoeThat's true. To be honest, I was also extremely entertained by how Oreki would always get wrapped up in something he would otherwise not care about. No matter what he would do to get out of it, he was always sucked in. All it would take was a shining pair of eyes and the words "I'M CURIOUS!!!" ![]() ![]() Originally posted by JoeWell written indeed. What is kind of strange to me is the fact that the original novel was written in 2001 but the anime and manga came out in 2012 and 2013. I'm slightly surprised it took so long. It is also a bummer it lasted only 22 episodes. It would be great if another season or something came out but who know's the likelihood of that. Not sure if the anime represents the original novel well but if it does and the author wants to stick by that, I'm guessing another season will never happen. Originally posted by JoeI am sooo happy that you found this. It has been some months since I watched the anime (back in May) so my mind is a little fuzzy for what some of the music sounded like. I do remember it being good though and I had a hard time finding music from the anime. While some of the music sounds familiar, I will have to spend some time going through the list. I'd rather savor it than rush through it! Well shit... now I feel like watching the anime again. Perhaps I'll take a look at the manga to vary it up. ____________________ "Consider this a privilege.

Originally posted by GirlydragonStrong statement off of the first episode! I guess it wasn't just me. Very interesting. Your statement, coupled with what I was able to find on the internet, has only increased my interest in the VN. I don't know when I'll get around to it but it is definitely on my to do list. Originally posted by GirlydragonYeah, that's what I do remember about the anime (and considering I remember that clearly is pretty bad). At first, I tried to bear with it since I thought it would get better the farther I got. It never really did and the only reason I bothered to finish it was because I made it halfway through the 26 episodes. The ultimate question is will I bother to watch the second season of the anime when it comes out? I mean, the first season ends on a cliffhanger so I assume there will be another season. Part of me wants to watch it since I already got through the first season but if the second season is produced in a similar fashion to the first season then I really don't want any part of it. The other part of me says that I shouldn't bother with the second season since I shouldn't finish something just to finish it. If I don't enjoy it, why bother. ____________________ "Consider this a privilege. You have been chosen." |

Originally posted by Cuber456FINALLY... we have one good thing that anime did! We were waiting so much... today should be an holiday! ![]() Anyway, if you can just go directly to the VN. It's much much better than the anime. Originally posted by Cuber456To torture yourself, maybe? ![]() Jokes aside, it all depends if you like to see horrible things just for fun or not. If not, just move directly to the Visual Novel, you won't regret that like watching the anime. ____________________ |

Originally posted by Kak64Ya but.... its totally disappointing. There could have been so much more potential for the anime. Originally posted by Kak64Like I said before, I'll jump into the VN when I get a chance to. No idea when that will be since I am always pretty busy but I will eventually find time for it since the story is apparently good. Originally posted by Kak64Well I wouldn't just watch it the anime blindly. Before even considering it I would check out reviews for the second season. Having a choice, I would rather jump into the VN blindly than the anime blindly because there is a chance I would enjoy the VN. ____________________ "Consider this a privilege.

Reviewers out there mostly like it... well... like it in the way "This thing is better than the anime."
In any case , it's a quite good VN. ____________________ |

Originally posted by GirlydragonI can agree with you. I actually tried to see if I could find a sound track from the anime on YT but I came up empty handed. The closest thing I could come up with was a sound track for the VN. The same thing happened to me when I tried to find a sound track for Hyouka. Joe was able to find that somehow so I don't know if I didn't search hard enough or perhaps I didn't type in the right key words. From what I remember, I really enjoyed the music that played when dead bodies started turning up. It was chilling but thats why I enjoyed it. Originally posted by GirlydragonLucky for me, the anime is becoming more of a blur. As tempting as it is to check the spoiler tag, I'd rather forget what happens in the anime and start with a clean slate for the VN. ____________________ "Consider this a privilege.

Hey, that's what I also needed. Thanks.
