Shorts are definitely cool, I hope the format continues to grow and/or Squid Girl's format of three shorts per episode makes a comeback.

Luluco is my favorite of the season so far so can confirm that shorts are really good.

Teekyuu is one 3:30 minute show covering 24 minutes worth of gags.

It works on the same principal as Marx brothers comedy, where the best way to do comedy is hit the audience over the head with jokes before they have time to breathe

even if one isnt very funny the next one is only a second away

I keep hearing that Re:Zero is driving many people to depression for similar reasons that Helck did...

Is this true?

Yeah, past few seasons, we've been getting a lot of nice shorts; Wakako-zake Ojisan Marshmallow, Galko-chan, and now Tonkatsu DJ.

No. It's pretty good.

And no one should be depressed about Helck because everyone should BELIEVE IN HELCK.

i wouldn't really call Re:Zero light, since several characters have been killed with a good amount of blood, and the general hopelessness the protag feels at first. it's not nearly as depressing (or charming) as Helck though.

I assume by "is driving many people to depression for similar reasons that Helck did" they mean "is driving people nuts having to wait for the next chapter because they want more"

I like how that collection of reactionary posts doesn't include whatever it is they're reacting to.

Solving mysteries in

Ace Attorney matches the tone of the game for me pretty well (Note: I only played the first game, and only the first three or four cases of that).

Yuuki Aoi wouldn't have been the type of voice actress I would choose for May[a|oi] but she's growing on me.

Then again, as far as anime is concerned, I'm drawn to poo poo, like the proverbial fly.

Yeah. I remember in the second case for the third game, basically knowing what would win the case right at the beginning of the last trial, but it wouldn't exempt the crucial piece of evidence until the very end, and it was so frustrating.

Also, having played 1-3, I feel the series left off at a good point where I didn't need anymore PW and everything was resolved nicely.

Case 4 (and 5 on DS) are great cases. 1 is a good tutorial. I actually hate case 2 (I think it's the most boring in the original trilogy, and the ending is a copout). 3 is good too.
