| PV watching time. |
| There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do. |
| I don't know much about that type of transactions in Japan but isn't 1 yen per share really cheap? Is AIC in some kind of trouble resulting in such poor price or is Aplix so desperate they need 70 bucks? ^^ |
Ii tenki desu ne... |
| that Isshuukan Friends friends series interests me, it looks really cute and also kind of sad since the girl has amnesia, reminds me a bit of chihiro's story in EF but looks more upbeat, i think ill be adding that to my ptw |
Immahnoob said: Jizzy, I know you have no idea how to argue for shit, tokiyashiro said: Jizzy as you would call yourself because youre a dick The most butthurt award goes to you And clearly you havent watched that many shows thats why you cant determine if a show is unique or not Or maybe you're just a child who likes common stuffs where hero saves the day and guys gets all the girls. Sad taste you have there kid you came up to me in the first place making you look more like a kid who got slapped without me even knowing it and start crying about it to me |
| For Date a Live II, there was also an announcement much earlier than that for the seiyuus of two other characters. I think they should be mentioned as well. Isaac Ray Pelham Westcott: Okiayu Ryotaro Ellen Mira Mathers: Itou Shizuka Source Also, Seikoku no Dragonar will be airing on Spring. I dunno if this is a credible source though. |

Wind_Sr said: Wow, this actually looks really cool. Hopefully it eventually gets subbed, and then I'll be able to watch it. |

| Kinda wish they put more in the Hachapre preview than just their transformation, but oh well. |
 |
| Will there actually be a live action of SnK? Because that video is just a car commercial.. Unless there's something i'm missing here? |
Chibi-Alice said: Will there actually be a live action of SnK? Because that video is just a car commercial.. Unless there's something i'm missing here? Yeah you can find a post about it here. Like I added to the end of the link it was preview to show what the titans in the live-action movie will look like. |

| I got anticipated when Asumi Kana was announced as Ene's seiyuu in Mekaku City Actors since I am a big fan of Asumi Kana. *rubs hand excitedly* This is getting interesting. I dunno if this is related or not (but I hope this is a yes), but I got the news that Asumi Kana stars as Female Protagonist in the upcoming Persona 3: The Weird Masquerade stage play. |
| You know an anime is successful when it stars in a car commercial. |

ihateeveryone said: Still enough for /pc/ to call it the worst Precure season yetKinda wish they put more in the Hachapre preview than just their transformation, but oh well. Speaking of HapCha, I just came to the realisation that Tomatsu Haruka's character won't gain her Precure powers until half way through the show. Although considering half of Doki was enough for me to be turned right off of Ace I suppose she'll have a good amount of presence. |

| I hope we get to see a full preview of Mekaku Actors soon. |

Stark700 said: I hope we get to see a full preview of Mekaku Actors soon. I'm sure we'll get one after the last CM. By announcing each seiyuu one by one they are building continuos hype. Showing PV now would kinda ruin the surprise. If they are going in order of the songs then Kido's(Blindfold code) seiyuu announcement should be next. I predict it will either be Miyuki Sawashiro or someone with a similar voice. |

| I like that your compiling this smaller news into one thread. Gets rid of a lot of clutter and I don't have to keep clicking on threads. Anyway Issuukan Friends is adorable, not exactly the best thing ever, but I've enjoyed reading it. I wonder if this means an adaptation of koe no katachi is possible someday. It deals with a similar premise, but much better fleshed out IMO. Only other thing I care about is Tokyo ESP since its by the creator of Gai-Rei Zero. I read the manga for abit, wasn't very impressed. Hopefully the anime turns out okay though. |

| Well that was an interesting . . . car commercial |
