    Why do good authors have to die? We should research immortality and grant people like Urobuchi Gen, and like everyone from studio Ghibli it so they can come out with good stories forever!

    Yeah, there's a lot of military detail in the novels that you can't really put into an anime, especially since most of the high school stuff ends after the last anime season (up to Owaru Day By Day, IIRC). FMP's anime is probably one of the best LN adaptations yet, strikes the right balance between keeping it entertaining and staying true to the text. Still waiting for the next sequel...

    On the other hand, Kaze no Stigma's anime was just horribad. Pretty obviously low budget.

    It's already been achieved - we just need to convince Nakata George to share his secrets with the world.

    I'm surprised at how much I'm liking Highschool DxD.
    McJon01: We all know that the real reason Archer would lose to Rider is because the events of his own Holy Grail War left him with a particular weakness toward "older sister" types.
    My Fanfics. Read 'em. Or not.

    Probably because the Main Character is refreshingly different from current main characters.

    I find "Legend of the Sun Knight" pretty entertaining.

    So I'm reading Zashiki Warashi of Intellectual Village and I gotta say that Jinnai Shinobu is quite an awesome protagonist. The way the dude actually uses his brain is evocative of heroes of old who know how to manipulate situations to their advantage. His pet youkai, she's also a lot of fun.

    It's proving to be a good read so far. Glad the second volume is coming out December-ish, but seeing work come out by Kamachi Kazuma that isn't his bread-and-butter series makes me want for that danged New Testament volume 6.

    Hmm, I've been wondering, is Infinite Stratos dead?


    It's been over a year since the last volume came out.

    Some funky unresolved legal issues have left the series on an indefinite hiatus. You know, for all intents and purposes probably dead.

    Caught up with No-Rin; it's pretty funny. This part was great because I seriously thought Kousaku was gonna pull it off there:

    Spoiler:

    There was someone quietly shaking with worry. It was Minori.

    “Kou-tan, I guess you really do like her more than me.”

    “You’re wrong Minori; that’s not how it is……”

    There’s no denying that, to me, Minori represents this village, while Ringo is a symbol of the city. And even now, I still have mixed feelings about the city. But that’s exactly why―

    “’Which one do I like? Which one’s better? Will I regret the one I choose?’ That kind of thinking is wrong. Isn’t there a way for all of us to get along?"

    “……?”

    “……?”

    Minori, Ringo, Tsukasa-nee, Takumi, Akina, not a single person here got what I said, but that's not much of a surprise. I just need to keep talking…… because I don't even know what I'm trying to say.

    “You should be able to spread both wings, not just one. Whether it’s villages or cities, you can’t just go on while abandoning the other… Yeah, that’s it! You don’t need to choose one! I got it, Minori! You…



    BOTH OF YOU ARE MY WINGS!!
