    Guilty crown has been suggested by me several times, so I back it completely. It's great.

    I've seen the trailer for Guilty Crown, and it looks sick. Maybe when I'm done watching The Familiar of Zero.

    Speaking of which, I just finished watching the first episode last night, and as with all the other anime I watch, I have no clue what is even going on. I guess that's why I continued to watch all the other anime I've seen.

    Guilty Crown's been awesome so far. They're almost the same anime, but I like it much more than I like Code Geass.

    No problemo zigy. If you finish the first season of TLR do watch the second. It's much better since it follows the manga for the most part. No Omamori Himari? I didn't expect you to like that one anyway, lol.

    Just finished the second episode of The Familiar of Zero, and I'm already interested in the series. This episode really made me want to watch the entire thing. Hopefully it won't dissapoint me. Looks like Guilty Crown will have to wait.

    Watch the first episode of Guilty Crown and you'll want to watch the rest of IT instead. Probably.

    Nah, Digimon had a perfectly fine run for a while.
    At least until that whole THE HUMANS BECOME DA DIGIMON thing.

    Well, I'm that person who likes to stick to watching only one anime at a time, whether its new or I'm rewatching it. So... Guilty Crown can wait.

    Yu-Gi-Oh in general is very meh.

    Most powerful anime deaths: Possible Spoilers!
    1. Mami (Madoka)
    2. Lelouche (Code Geass)
    3. Yui (Angel Beats!)
    4. Portgas D. Ace (One Piece)
    5. Nagisa (Clannad)
    6. Hughes (FMA)
    7. Kyouko (Madoka)
    8. Kamina (Gurren Lagann)
    9. Otonashi (Angel Beats!)
    10. Euphemia (Code Geass)

    Nagisa should be number one and Mami shouldn't be in this list.

    I would add Kurisu or Mayuri from Steins gate into that as well.

    Kurisu's death puts the entire shows events into motion, while Mayuri's (repeated deaths) makes Okabe decide to revert all the changes they made, including stopping Kurisu's death.

    For those who haven't seen the show or don't know, Mayuri dies like a thousand time in the show, all in front of the main character while he tries to save her.

    Semi-important information to the plot of the show in that spoiler. Just forgot to spoiler it at first.

    EDIT: Started watching Kore wa Zombie Desu ka. Main character is a zombie, and then gains "magical girl" powers. (yes, he does the clothes transformation too) It seems to be a harem/comedy/mahou shojo.

    That's a very good list, although I would probably move Otonashi a bit higher.

    Normally I would watch one anime episode a day, but today I've seen three episodes of Familiar. The series seems to be going somewhere now, instead of just "filler episodes" like in Family Guy.

    Aschur: I've heard of that one from somewhere, but never watched it. Let me know if it's worth watching.

    Sky: I could agree with that since he died for a very good cause. I think Hughes should be higher up too.

    Okay the one I mentioned last, its ****ing HILARIOUS so far. The guy is a zombie, lives in a house with a mute necromancer, a vampire ninja, and a magical girl that had her magic stolen by him somehow. So now, he is a Zombie/magical (guy?)

    The best part is when he transforms into a magical (guy?) and is wearing the clothing that the girl wore when she was a magical girl. Then the vampire ninja calls him a piece of ****.

    FYI, almost NONE of that is a spoilers because it happens in like the first 2 episodes.

    ****. Just found out that Familar has 4 seasons. Well, I'll probably just watch the first season, then watch Guilty Crown, watch the second season, then To Love-ru, and see where that goes.

    Man, I've got a lot to watch.

    Finally finished season 2 of Strike Witches last night, I hope they do another one as I really enjoyed it and they had a short epilogue with a quick glimpse that the story may not be over.

    Time to get through some more Toradora, Cowboy Bebop and if I feel like it, more Love Hina.

    I'm also tempted to watch K-On, but after everything else is done.
