Just watched Sirius the Jaegar, and it was, I guess, mediocre? I think my favorite part of the show is that the setting completely renders the moral of the story useless. It's set in 1930's Japan, they reference the previous World War, and the moral is about how we can all get along and how the main character is now a god that will help guide people to be cooperative. And all of it is undercut by the fact that WW2 is coming up in a few short years and all of the main characters are going to be party to massive bloodshed and horrifying atrocities.

The main characters are vampire hunters, they won't participate in the loving war.

It must've been super awkward being an early 1940's Japanese vampire hunter.

I never really got into Hoknai 3rd Impact, but the crossover event with EVA just being a retelling of Evangelion with Honkai characters was pretty cool.

Shinji was a good protagonist... But would it be better if he was a depressed lesbian? :thinking:

And then she tries to go right back to give flyers and that's when the teachers are like "NOPE!". Mikuru being in tears at that point and you can clearly tell even though both hers and Haruhi's frames are so tiny is so hard to forget.

That whole scene still gets me in stitches after all these years.

Different episode, but Haruhi being a top 10 giant dork in the baseball game is also so much fun.

I miss Haruhi, they should bring that show back one day (there’s plenty of stories left to adapt after all). But unless I’m forgetting something there haven’t been much in the way of new light novels to promote lately so I’m not sure if they’d actually do it.

Just a short story, IIRC.

Also, while I wouldn't mind more Haruhi, what I really want to see a new anime of is Slayers. Especially after the 2 new novels have been such a fun romp.

The author recently released a new book that was a compilation of short stories published elsewhere and one (fairly substantial iirc) new one. It was coming off the series' anniversary though, so who knows if it was him intending to come back or just a last huzzah.

Not as far as I know. Buddy of mine got them for me since the music store he works on is just a stone-throw away from his fave bookstore in Chiyoda.

Apparently the slayers rights were in limbo since j-novel's acquisition was called a rescue last summer. They're not current but I'd trust them to get there.

How many of the novels were brought over to the west out of curiosity? I’m really only familiar with the anime side of the franchise.

Yeah, basically both the novels that Tokyopop localized and the anime seasons have already covered much of Part 1 of the story.

I know it's done for ease of understanding, but I still find it funny that Inuyasha speaks modern vernacular while everyone else in the past speaks ye olde Japanese.
