I never really watched any before. Then the other day the gun charms thread had me looking around online which led me to this.



Holy crap this is a riot.

Is that a 1:2 scale M249 that shoots 17HMR or something?

I tried to watch the show (cuz the gunz are kewl), but holy crap; every episode was just incessant "Gee, I guess it was pretty wrong of us to make little girls into psycho-robot-ninja-witch assassins!"  --That plus the obvious weird undertones to the whole premise...I gave up after like two identical episodes that didn't feel particularly rewarding as a viewer.  And I'm a guy that can stand watching the Trigun pilot .  Does it at least get better further in?

Why couldn't they make a season(s)-length thing from Gunsmith Cats instead, that was a way better premise

@barnbwt

The 'why couldn't they have done another season of...' question is far from new.

Sometimes the answer is that the author of the source material kept putting off the next chapter (writer's block, or more interested in another project), until they died.

Other times it's just that the source material (manga or novel) is still being published, but not enough has been released to make another season of an anime, and by the time another season's worth of source material is available, everybody involved in the anime has moved on to other projects.

Then there's the times when the big wigs decided that the source material was popular enough for a single season, but not enough for two seasons, and that's that, as far as they're concerned.

Or perhaps the big wigs hired a consultant from HK (the fans suck, and they hate them).

ETA: I rather enjoyed this episode. Had enough of a mix between action, derp, and funny that I actually laughed a few times.
Mii is definitely a character I am starting to like.

The ranking at the end of this episode:
1) Order of the Holy Sword.
2) Kingdom of the Flame Emperors.
3) Wizard Hideout.
4) Rainbow Wings.
5) Rapid Fire.
6) Shambhala.
7) thunder storm.
8) Bulletin Board Bros.
9) Rose Stars Brigade.
10) Maple Tree.

That was a good episode.

I lol'd so hard at the part when Maple goes Mecha. In any other show it would be an emotional scene. As she's so op their morale is instantly broken. But instead it's so absurd that you can't help but laugh.

It was not the mindless shounen action series that you turn off your brain & watch.
As someone who was active in the Cyborg Central scanlation group (I was directly responsible for the end of the 2-year scanlation break for the manga), I would suggest you give the manga a good read-through.
At the time the anime was first airing (2003), the manga was still being written and published.
The OVAs that ended the anime series aired in 2008, while the final chapter of the manga was published in 2012.

On the other hand, you do realize that Gunsmith Cats was a lesbian series, right?

1- Correct. Which is why they changed animation studios for the second season.
2- Correct. Which added to the above prevented the series from further animation.
3- That is something that should be discussed later. As it gets rather in-depth and super nerdy very quickly.

So. Updates: I still have the last episode of Bofuri to catch up on.

Against my better judgement, I bought FLCL Progressive/Alternative. I am going to watch this now.

...

I also bought an FLCL cat charm. Fuck me please for not checking the dimensions. I was originally going to put it on my 7.5 Kitty Kat. That's not going to happen... it is too big even on my last M4 . My partner just wants it as a stuffed animal now.

Also. Don't mind the floor... my partner stole part of her gym today.

So That's fun.

Also don't mind my sketch-ass China town copy of the original FLCL.

Obviously, on the Lesbos.  Cats was still a better premise, with more interesting characters.  The philosophy stuff is too subtle if there's more to it than "this is really fucked up, what we're doing."  I get that the handlers/pets have slight personality differences, but not nearly enough to be interesting.   But hey, I'm one of those cretins who thinks the ending of Eva was a hackneyed cop-out that was completely unsatisfying and an insult to the audience, so what do I know.
