Oh, that sounds about right. Though if you told me it was about a group of girls and half-guys and one whole-guy playing simulated games of slapjack, I'd probably believe you, too. I know how you feel though, I need to finish it but it's just so daunting. And it doesn't help that the summer anime so far are actually really good. It makes this one leftover from the spring seem that much worse.

Oh god, you have no idea. In all honesty, I've forgotten what it's about. There isn't really a focused plot and I've been turning my brain off whenever I watch an episode. I cannot believe I have 12 episodes left. It's like I haven't even started...

Since summer anime are starting to air, I'll list a few things I'll be keeping up with: Glasslip Tokyo Ghoul Sword At Online II Aldnoah.Zero Akame ga Kill! Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei (I grow a grey hair for every episode I watch, but I will conquer this pile of trash!) Zankyou no Terror and Tokyo ESP <-- I'll watch these two when they air Finished Fate/Zero, anticipating Fate/stay night remake. Revolutionary Girl Utena is on hold for now.

Yondemasu yo, Azazel-san.

Oh yes, and to join the three I mentioned previously there's now Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei.

I think it's next week, because chapter 901 will come out three weeks after 900, and 900 was just translated yesterday I think about two weeks after we got spoilers, so we're going to get our first look at 901 next Friday. ... Unless I can't count, which is highly likely given the state that my math grades have been in since forever.

Yippee, chapter 900, the one we've all been waiting for, is finally translated! ... ... The title page had "File 900" so small in the top right hand corner I almost didn't see it. It actually wasn't too bad of a chapter at all, I just feel like its placement during a time when we all expected plot is frustrating. Genta is being and looking stupid, the criminal with a black face but white hands creeped me out, and Naeko actually did make an appearance (looks like she's worried about her senpai too). And short-haired Yumi < long-haired Yumi, despite that I sort of prefer women with short to medium short hair...

"Tale of Two Cities" by Charles Dickens ^This masterpiece needs an anime adaptation! Or at least a new movie, because it's better than Les Miserables in my opinion. "The Little Prince" by Antoine de Saint-Exupery ^Teared up and I'm not sure why. I'll take my English teacher's advice and read this multiple times over the course of my life.

Ah, this is where this topic went! Disappeared on me for a few months. I've finished the first Ace Attorney game and am almost done with Justice for All. I was working on the last turnabout when my game froze while saving and now I have to start from the beginning of the turnabout and do everything all over again! Extremely frustrated considering I had gotten really far... Oh yes, but I adore the series. Wish I had started it sooner, and I'm not sure why I didn't take the hint from the occasional references I saw on this site over the years. I even have an Ace Attorney t-shirt now! I'll probably finished the main trilogy, Apollo Justice, and that Investigations spin-off before school starts up again. As for Dual Destinies, I'll buy that once I get my 3DS back from my parents......

Was thinking of bumping this thread up, before realizing I have absolutely no idea what games are trending right now. I don't play app games at all, but from what I can gather the hype for 2048 seems to be dying down. As for actual video games, I can't say there's anything people are getting really into. E3 wasn't too long ago, and I know a lot of people are now looking forward to games coming out in the future. I'm a Nintendo fanboy myself, and my profile pic and signature speak for themselves. We'll see what starts to trend once the holiday season rolls back around...

Shorter than waiting in line to meet and greet Elsa and Anna at Disneyland.

When I first read your post, I thought to myself "um, never heard of Lina in my life..." but then I Googled her and I remember now! I actually remember some of those commercials! My god, this is like one of those Proustian experiences or something (oh, no never mind, Wikipedia says not really). Excuse me for a minute, I'll be back after picking up the blown pieces of my mind...

One Week Friends was pretty cute. Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei <-- terrible, but will continue if only to give it a low rating on MAL Fate/Zero Revolutionary Girl Utena

The first preview video of the previously announced special that will air to celebrate the manga's 20th anniversary has aired. You can watch it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=te4mslUQtr8 The special appears to be a collaboration between Gosho Aoyama and scriptwriter Kenji Uchida, who directed the comedy film Kagi Dorobo no Method. Kenji is also a self proclaimed Conan fan. Yasuichiro Yamamoto, who has been in charge of all the DC movies from 15 onward, will direct this special. It is slated to air on Friday, December 26th 2014.

I expected a darker song considering the title. Well, there were Black Org scenes at least, which I always like. I swear though, this is like the 20th opening or ending with all the 100% good guys running through a grassy field and the 10th opening or ending with their destination being a tree. There were also a lot of really lazy animations. In fact, apart from the running and the skateboarding, everything else was pretty much just pictures with special effects. The opening itself felt kind of fragmented, especially with Conan shooting at nothing and a bunch of other scenes that were drawn out and extended for the sake of filling up a minute and a half of "animation." Considering there are rather massive gaps between openings now, I'd expected for there to be more effort put into these. Ever since "tear drops" (the disaster that was opening 30), the animations have been on a downward spiral.

This isn't looking so good... Chapter 901 will be titled "Mate", calling it now.

Shukichi and his eyes and his glasses and his penchant for pretty women with long hair is reminding me so much of Eisuke, especially considering we're practically tapping chapter 900 on the shoulder. Also, hype for Sera's "sister", who appears sickly as ever (??). If Gosho pulls the trap card, I might cry. Prediction: The Chiba x Naeko super lovey-dovey couple save the day in order to develop two relationships in one arc and reduce the ever growing need for non-BO related chapters.

Ah yes, just checked their official Twitter page and it looks like you're right. Thanks for the heads up!

It has been announced that the new opening for Detective Conan is titled "Greed" and will be performed by KNOCK OUT MONKEY. It will first air with episode 744 "The Rainy Bowling Alley (Part 1)" on June 28th.

Kaoko is back?!?! And that was a really well made AMV. I've always liked the ones that used creative effects to make the anime seem like something it's not.

Perhaps Conan just happens to run into thieves in a museum that Kid is planning to also steal from? Or maybe a bunch of security guards and police conspire to steal a painting during a pre-planned Kid heist and use the confusion to their advantage? Apparently, there is one of Van Gogh's sunflower paintings in the Sompo Japan Museum of Art. Though there doesn't appear to be any jewels there, maybe Sonoko's gramps decides to use that building as a place to lure Kid out with some ruby from Cambodia, or something. This is seriously just turning into a tower of assumptions now. Honestly though, throw in a bomb threat too, and now there's a tri-faceted mess of a transition movie between the big 18 and the bigger 20.

I don't know why I didn't think of this earlier, but I'm going to make a bold prediction. However, this prediction is only valid if the sunflower does indeed refer to Van Gogh. I think the next movie will be a Kaitou Kid film about an art museum heist focusing around Van Gogh's works with visual arts as a major theme. Generally, every recent movie can be given a theme: M-11 is pirates, M-12 is music, M-13 is BO, M-14 is airship, M-15 is snow, M-16 is soccer, M-17 is battleship, and M-18 is Akai. It wouldn't surprise me if they decide to use visual arts (painting, sculpture, photography) as the theme for M-19. The only way I can imagine them pulling this off is having the crime be a major heist at a museum, which is something that fits the DC formula but also leaves a lot of room for fresh ideas. Furthermore, we haven't had a Kid movie since M-14 and it's about time he shows up in one. Not to mention museums have always been Kid magnets. As for a movie title, I think there may be a pun on the word "frame" (picture frame and framing a criminal). I wouldn't be surprised if I'm right, but I'm basing a theory on a major assumption so I wouldn't be shocked if I'm wrong either.

Maybe she's born with it. Maybe it's Maybelline. I'm sorry, ban me now.
