Everyone should watch Strike Witches. Yeah, it is the best show of the new season. No one wears pants.

Lol! or should I say... Loli o_o haha. I watched the first ep and thought it was a failed pilot o-o I didn't know that more was coming out.

But yeah. IT's a col idea... little cute girls with guns and aeroplane legs and cute animals o-o but the first episode thing I watched was laughably crap.

It sets the bar for which all future anime must try to achieve.

Seriously though, it is obviously terrible, not even worth the time to insult. It could have been hilarious if they didn't try to take it seriously. Even the mecha musume sucked. The mech legs were all the same.

HMM!
Lol well, I think you're right. Idk, I'd watch it if if wasn't so serious o-o if it was just silly and cool. The aeroplane-leg thing is pretty lol o-o and they fly around. lol it's a cool series, really.
It's weird how the main girl doesn't wear pants.

<frumplstlskn> I think I get it now
<frumplstlskn> Strike Witches is clear social commentary about the evils of pants
<frumplstlskn> it is against the fashion industry at large
<frumplstlskn> specifically any designers and brands that produce pants
<frumplstlskn> by making this show they are expressing that not only would everything be better without pants, but that everyone will benefit from not supporting the pants industry.
<frumplstlskn> You know it to be true philistine!
<frumplstlskn> You just can't accept the genius that is Strike Witches.

Yeah, you're prob right... I'm just not ruling it out... you know how these shounen writers love to cheapen the whole "death" thing.

Hey, anyone watched ep.1 of Blade of the Immortal yet? I'm waiting for a decent subber to pick it up, but any opinions would be cool.

I watched the one from Anime Enlightenment. It seems fine. It's not like the characters say anything complicated haha

What about the action and animation and.. um.. all the rest? Are the character designs good? Is it true to the manga? Humm.. maybe a bit early for that question. What about the VAs?

Big fan of the manga... :swt:

um..i've only read the first chapter of the manga...which is basically episode 1.

But imo it was a bit confusing and disjointed....who is this dude? Why was his sister married to that guy he killed? Who the hell is the old lady? Very confusing but i guess it will make sense later O_o

the animation is ok. Didn't wow me but it works.
