And Crunchyroll have also added Deadman Wonderland! They're really picking up some great shows this season

Reply 23

Meh, only three out of the sixteen shows I'm considering so far...

Crunchy also has Kami no Mizo Shiru Sekai (The World God Only Knows) 2, but I'm not sure whether I'll pick that up just yet.

Oh LOL! Crunchyroll has Sekai-ichi Hatsukoi!! :laugh:

My thoughts on Toriko from the on-topic thread:

As for the current season, I've seen the first episode of Toriko... I don't really know what to say about this or whether I should be pleased or flabbergasted... This wasn't so much Toriko but rather a peculiar 'filler' episode of One Piece... The whole Strawhat crew were featured... Assuming the incentive was there, which seems highly plausible given the popularity of One Piece, it just seemed like the biggest form of a sellout that I've seen in anime.

Edit: Upon further research, it seems the crossover occurred in the manga for Toriko as well. Regardless, I'm all for crossovers on the basis that they're minimal (like a character from the same author walking by in the background) or, in the case of Cross Epoch, at least it was more of a tribute for the two shounen titles and the relationship Oda and Toriyama share... But with this, it just seemed like a waste of an episode, given what happened, especially when it's the first episode in the series...

Yeah, it's really exciting. You do want yaoi, you just don't know it yet.

Crunchyroll acquired Steins;Gate earlier. :yes:

Also, as usual I'll be updating my first post in this thread with the series I pick up, on the off chance anyone cares. I've already said so in the ontopic thread, but so far I'll be keeping on Oretachi ni Tsubasa wa Nai and Nichijou.

steins gate was weird :lolwut:

that white noise the whole time except during the op was a pain :hmmm:

but it was clearly intentional

Hansoku iroha :sad:

poor girl with such family :s-smilie:

The UK streaming site Anime On Demand now has Nichijou, Steins;Gate and Deadman Wonderland... All Crunchyroll series. I don't know whether they're available in the UK on Crunchyroll; if they're not then I'm assuming AOD's license is the reason for that. If they are available to UK viewers on Crunchyroll, then they're in for some competition. :hmmmm2:
