Moretsu Pirates (AKA Bodacious Pirates)

Episode 7 ended with a DUN DUN DUNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!

[Rednal]

It did.

Shame that previews always spoil. I should stop watching them. I think I'll like the next episode, though.

Spoiler:

Marika: I'm a scary pirate! D< And this isn't a passenger ship! You're gonna pay your way or start swabbin' the decks!

Stowaway: o wo *Slaps Marika with a wad of bills* Will this do?

Marika: ...Passenger it is! Ready a room for our esteemed guest! =D

I rarely watch opening/ending credits unless I already know the source material (e.g. Persona 4), and I always skip previews, because of spoiler issues I've had with other shows in the past. It makes sense when you flip through channels on TV since they want you to be interested enough to "tune in next week!", but nowadays I know that I'm going to finish out a whole anime series, so I don't need to take the risk that something gets spoiled :3

Also, the ANN forum has reaffirmed my love for this forum and general abhorrence of The Internet: http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/bbs/php ... p?t=961215 Some people, seriously...

Wow....

I also avoid previews at the end. Though sometimes those ending songs are pretty hard to resist

But...those comments just...wow...

Glad it's doing better in Japan now. I'm worried that KMB is pretty much done for though. I guess the only way they'll save it is to do some sort of ecchiservice episode -_-

You sound surprised to see shitty comments from a shitty site.

[myskaros]

I read their forums pretty much never and typically only read their news/look up voice actors. Hey, I won a copy of Burst Angel on Blu-ray through one of their random contests, so they can't be quite that bad :X

ANN is a terrible place with terrible posters. Expect anything that comes out of their mouths to be either stupid, pointlessly self-righteous, or just flat out wrong.

I'unno. I think it depends on the subject. Personally, I think the forum was right to criticize the guy who writes the gaming column when he dismissed Katawa Shoujo as a creepy, fetish-pandering game before playing it (since, y'know, it's not). So I wouldn't say they're always wrong.

And Zac was totally right that Moretsu Pirates is probably the best show this season. o wo

Well that stemmed from an editor being the one exhibiting those behaviors. When it comes to opinions, ANN tends to be like the IGN of anime.

Episode 8 ~

Spoiler:

Things are really getting interesting. Why is a military firing on their own ship?

Also, subtext keeps on rolling in xD Now Chiaki has competition. What will she do?

I don't watch the previews though. I really don't care to know what's going to happen next. Like someone else said, I know I'm watching the next episode, I don't need a preview to convince me of that.

Spoiler:

The whole situation with the princess reeks of conspiracy. Watch, all of a sudden Villagiulio will show up in his mech and bust some balls

Spoiler:

Well, personally, I figure some kind of coup d'etat is going on...

I think they're thinking that too, they just had to reference the other show that this guy is doing xD

Spoiler:

I wonder if she's going to add that class to her crew at some point? Seems odd that they would do all that with them, and then have them never show up again...

[Rednal]

Spoiler:

They can staff the school's ship, and the end result will be that all of the original seven pirate ships will band together into their own little fleet and proceed to kick some serious butt. o wo

*Not quite kidding*
