Sup guys, guess who's back!? Don't know if I'll be staying but I'm bored at the moment. Look who just posted a few days ago too, if it isn't raikenzera... Anyways after skimming through all the posts since I was last here, I'm seeing a lot of new people and bad taste but eh, that's to be expected. Except for NeroLunar, I like you.

I'll try to answer some questions on the last page since nobody seems to be doing so:

@NeroLunar and others to whom this may concern. This has been brought up many times in the past and just recently I see, if you want recommendations just check out MyAnimeList and go to any anime which you liked and view the 'recommendations' tab. There will be a list of anime that is similar and reasons why ** is similar.

@Zimmy, the Black Lagoon manga has been on hiatus for three years but the mangaka is actually supposed to resume writing it shortly. Usually years after a series has aired a sequel won't be made, but seeing as how Roberta's Blood Trail was animated four years after The Second Barrage I wouldn't write it out for never getting another season. We'll just have to wait and see.

Glad to see you back i Revive! I was wondering why I barely saw you post much.

Other than that, I just realize that Little Busters came out recently o.O

I guess I could stick around just to post exclusively on this thread. I really need to get caught up with airing shows and start watching the new ones. I'm too preoccupied with finishing all the seasons of Major though.

One show to get another season? Hmm that's hard. Something that was outstanding that somewhat lacked in an ending... I'd go with Macross Frontier first since I loved it so much, but that would only need maybe a few OVAs, not a whole season. Other than that, without a doubt Beck is definitely in need of another season. I'd also like to see the final act of Nodame Cantabile animated, one of greatest romances if you ask me. They at least ended the anime at a good point so it was still tasteful but more could've been done.

Might as well stick around. That's basically what I do anyways.

As for anime that I would like to see another season for, here follows my wish list in no particular order, I would be satisfied with any of these:

STUFF THAT ACTUALLY NEEDS ANOTHER SEASON

Claymore: Ever seen a show were the ending basically says 'we left this open with nothing resolved for a second season' and that second season never arrived. Yeah, that's Claymore in a nutshell.

Tsubasa Reservoir Chronicle: Same as Claymore really, except instead of having some sort of conclusion it just stopped, so another series for them to actually wind it up would be nice. Ending might actually be easier to understand in anime form as well.

Moon Phase: Another show that they just bailed in the middle of. I dont think it even got an ending, they just went straight from the plot to something weird that one would expect of an OVA.The manga gets a little dull past that but still, finish what you start guys.

STUFF THAT I WANT FOR REASONS

Negima: Specifically the School Festival arc. This arc is easily the best bit of the manga, yet this is the one the tattered adaptation of the manga chose to skip over.

Lyrical Nanoha: And no, I dont mean Vivid or that other thing with the long name. The jump straight from A's to StrikerS is to wide a gap for me, so StrikerS dosent really mesh with the first two very well. I want to see a transition series somewhere in the middle with less random people hogging the spotlight and more of what the series is known for, city leveling energy beams and questionable Nanofate moments.

STUFF THAT I JUST WANT BECAUSE I DO

Hidan no Aria: This show is crazy, stupid and ridiculous, but that's kind of why I like it in a 'guilty pleasure' sense. I would gladly watch more of it.

Lucky star: There are times when my brain just needs to absorb something sugary yet ultimately unwilling, normally when I'm very tired, intoxicated or both. Lucky Star is my go-to show for that purpose.

I've only seen the first episode and I'm not all that interested in it at the moment. Who knows though, it was only the first episode. I'll watch more of it whenever I don't have anything else better to do.

A show that needs a second season? Hidan no Aria. I loved the light novels, but the anime got butchered and didn't even get into the plot very much. If they ever do, they damn well better get a better director or something or else I'm gonna explode with pure fanrage. EXPLODE!

And hey, Revive, fancy meeting you here.

@raikenzera

As is so often the case with adaptations, but even if it really was as bad as you say, I would still struggle to dislike an anime that has bulletproof soap. Guess I'm just lucky to have not read the novels then, planning on getting to them at some point in the future, but I want to finish up SAO first, and I imagine it will take me a while to get back to those, considering that as of January first 18+ games are legal here, so I'll have a big influx of formerly illegal VN's arriving on my doorstep soon.

@Earnshaw30

Assuming they do it right but... well... to be honest I really dint think JC is going to do the ending justice considering what I've seen so far. They more or less ignored the central gimmick that the ending is built on, so I dunno if they are going to be able to wrap it up well, because I can imagine alot of people are gonna be to 'Wait...what?!' to get pulled into it.
