Thanks mate, time to buy more nendoroids. Now to wait for a Satsuki release. I read somewhere that there are about 8 possible meanings to Ryuko depending on how you use the characters. I don't even know how the Japanese can handle this stuff and it certainly can't cross over into English too easily. Still curious to hear Nui and Ragyo.

Sarah Williams (Peacock from Skullgirls) is getting more work and that is making me really happy to see. She absolutely nailed Jakuzure. Out of the voices from the trailer, Jakuzure, Gamagori, and Satsuki were the best. Sanageyama, Aikuro, and Inumuta were acceptable, Ryuko was iffy, and Mako and Senketsu were garbage. Pretty alright job all around though, just have to see who's voicing Nui and Ragyo. Also it's gonna be weird hearing Psycho Mantis' voice coming out of Satsuki's butler.

Another one of those top ten lists split by men and women, and once again women have better taste (though of course there's some poo poo on there).

NGNL's anime adaptation isn't doing very well because it's not perverted enough to pander to the LN readers/otaku crowd but it's a little too much for the regular watcher crowd (as evidenced by this very forum). Which sucks, because it's great.

I realize it's sharing a season with a mecha show powered by molestation and one with younger sister infatuated with her older brother who invincible and everyone else doesn't understand them, but being better than that trash hardly makes a show where they have a gag where it's okay to show all the girls naked because they have their genitals removed "great."

No game no life is a show that for every good thing it has there's like a billion terrible things it also has. Like, I guess I'm enjoying it but I will never recommend it to anyone.

The discussion threads on reddit have almost 4-times as many comments and upvotes as Mahouka. I don't know what your metric for "regular" anime watcher is, but from my experience it's pretty much the epitome of what casual anime fans will eat up.

Didn't know about the Reddit thing but last I heard the word out of Japan was that the reception is kinda tepid compared to the following of the LN. My metric for a regular show would be "can have a thread on this forum" though. Silver2195 posted:The difference is pretty slight, though; Mahouka is #2 on the women's list. I dunno, Haikyuu isn't on the men's list at all, neither is Kamigami, which is understandable because it is an otoge. That being said Kamigami is pretty funny from what I've seen of it so I'm just assuming the fan pandering parts of it just totally turn dudes off. Mekaku being completely absent from the boy's list is kinda weird though, I mean its main flaw is that it is very inconsistent from episode to episode which wouldn't turn off a whole gender from it.

Arguably the whole point is to avoid normal anime forum bullshit.
