I "Dere" You To Choose Wisely






I just wrapped up watching Fate/Zero , which is my first exposure to the franchise after some 6 years of suggestions from friends. I liked it. I give it a 7.5! I've begun Fate/Stay night Unlimited Blade Works or however the heck you type that. I like the cast more already. Rin is bae. I'm also watching Dragon Ball and The Crown . That's right, an 80s animated series with raunchy humor and a modern British Netflix series about Elizabeth II. Get on my level.

I've watched the first chapter of the first season (...) of Star Trek: Discovery and I eagerly await the second chapter which launches in January. My roommates are watching Game of Thrones and The Expanse with me. I've seen both, of course, but it's their first time for the latter and one of them hasn't seen Thrones before either. I'm reading The Wheel of Time: The Shadow Rising , The Witcher: Sword of Destiny and Star Wars: Leia .

Leon is tantalizingly close to finishing Yu Yu Hakusho , so be on the lookout for that. He's going to start the FF15 episodic DLCs, too, now that the initial batch is out in full. He's still playing Mario Odyssey too!

Decided to remove Saber and Rin for now because my rule has been only to add one character per series instead of per iteration, so we'll reach a final verdict after I finish the other F/SN anime.
also heck yeah Shonen Heart is the best

we're in agreement there
Seriously though one punch man and mob psycho 100 are 12 episode high budget shonen shows you can't go wrong with. Not even Leon.

Apparently I hadn't watched DBZ Kai episode 98 because it's separated on MAL from 1-97 for some reason. Oh well, that's fixed now!

Oh hey, Nameless Monster and Toki wo Kizamu Uta are two of my favorite OP/EDs ever. Nice picks.

Did you ever post your thoughts on DIS, Jeff?
All the stars in the sky are waiting for you.
Kid sucks

not as much as Harle though
Kid would be better without the dopey accent

Not yet! I will sometime soon though.
also Jeff Zero and I were just discussing this on Facebook

What's the word on those Persona 3 anime movies? It doesn't look like they're getting dubbed, does it? I was going to wait until they got dubbed to watch them, but if they're never getting dubbed and they're actually good, I might still watch them anyway.

So I watched the fourth through seventh episodes of Fate/stay the night Unlimited Bourbon Chicken Wok Bowl tonight and this is shaping up to rank higher than Fate/Zero for me if it maintains my interest in the characters. Rin and Shiro and Saber are all great, at least right now, and Archer isn't terribly far behind. I also love how Iri is popping up all creepily and calling Shiro "big brother" and stuff. This is absolutely proof that nine times out of ten I'm an in-universe chronological order kind of guy, because I love knowing what's probably up there.

Kiritsugu is dead, huh? Shucks. Shinji is a real dweeb which is as powerful a nod to prior anime as a red-haired mechanic being secretly powerful, yes, hello Amuro. I'm digging the plot a good bit and the music continues to be a serious step up from F/Z -- which boggles my mind considering F/Z had Kajiura and this show has... that guy who did, like, Devil May Cry or something. (Disclaimer: I'm not usually all that into metal stuff so that's why I say that kinda dismissively. But man, I like what he's doing here.)


As promised, the action is on-point and then some. This OP1 and ED1 are already making plays for my top 20 btw...

I dunno what else to say considering I'm buzzing through shows faster than I do when Leon and I take our time and really triple down on examining what we watch bit by bit with the board. So if y'all have questions on my character rankings, any predictions I might have this early in the game, my analysis of various angles, all that jazz, I guess let me know.
"Piece of cake!"

Man, so many people liking Shirou

He's definitely better in UBW than in Fate, but still
Congrats to BKSheikah for winning the BYIG Guru Challenge!
I mean, I could end up turning on my opinion of him as the series progresses, but at least as of episode 7 I like him just fine.
"Piece of cake!"
"We're good to go!"
I hated him pretty quickly, so he might remain fine for you
Congrats to BKSheikah for winning the BYIG Guru Challenge!
ubw shirou is prime shirou, says a guy who hasn't watched a second of f/sn anime or any f/sn anything beyond the first game

How many nights has Fate stayed at, anyway? Just how many of these games are there?
"Piece of cake!"
"We're good to go!"
3 nights

stay night is ufomism for sexy time

that's how I look at it

Anyway, what are deredere and kamidere

Are you just making these up
Congrats to BKSheikah for winning the BYIG Guru Challenge!
is deredere a love of creating new dere terms

Shiro is definitely the type of protagonist Jeff Zero (or should I say Jeff Shiro) tend to like.

Anyway, I watched a couple more episodes of the original Fate/stay night (perhaps I should say "Fate........stay night" since the narrator puts a noticeable pause there during episode previews). Still seems all right so far! The talk with Kirei at the church is a little more elaborate than in UBW, and the Saber/Berserker fight ends pretty differently. Also, Ilya reveals Berserker's identity right away here unlike in UBW, and she called Shiro "Mister" instead of "Big Brother."

A few other observations regarding Saber: Her sword is literally invisible instead of having that weird wavy effect it has in UBW. She also puts a lot of emphasis on the first syllable of Shiro's name, which might be deliberate and go along with what dowolf was saying yesterday. Also, she thinks hunger is the enemy and extravagance is the enemy.
I'm tempted to make my own top 10 OP's and ED's, but it would take way too much time to decide and I'm pretty sure you guys won't have seen most of the shows anyways.

#1 and #2 OP's are probably Spice and Wolf and Your Lie in April though. Not sure what immediately what else makes it in.
Congratulations to BK_Sheikah00 , this year's guru to achieve contest enlightenment!
The only real disagreement I have with Jeff Zero's list is that I liked Higurashi's OP2 better than OP1. I dunno if I could really put together a list of 10 each all that well though.
I found the deres on a list of deres

After episode 8 of UBW I am seriously wondering if Archer is somehow Kuritsugu

in fact Jeff Zero didn't even get them all...!
Okay, at least half of those were definitely made up on the spot
Congrats to BKSheikah for winning the BYIG Guru Challenge!
come on man haven't you ever heard all the people rave about what a great hinedere Hikigaya is

or how Ilya is their favorite mayadere

Random question: Is the Estelle that needs saving a different Estelle? Because after playing Trails FC and SC, I'm highly dubious as to whether Estelle Bright needs any kind of saving.

She is in no need of saving. And she is AMAZING. But I kept trying to "save" her in Save My contests on the board, especially SMFFFC, and it stuck.

I was just about to bring in the cute girls, but if you really need to abandon ship, go right ahead.

it stuck to the point that he failed to get the actual EstelleBright account because he wanted SaveEstelle instead

Oh hey, that Psycho-Pass VN is one of the PS+ free games next month! I might get that, and I'm sure that might interest Jeff Zero as well.

I've never played Deus Ex before, but maybe I should give this one a shot to see if I like it.
