So I decided to watch Kill la Kill on mostly a whim. I saw so many absolutely insane gifs from it, and I just had to know why they were so weird.
It was weird, and definitely NSFW, but I think I liked it.

I do. Its such a great show. Its absolutely insane and completely out of left field 90% of the time, but I love it. I wouldn't have watched it all in 2 days if I didn't love it...

It was weird, and definitely NSFW, but I think I liked it. I was disappointed with Kill la Kill frankly. A show that absolutely oozed style from start to finish yes but one that ultimately left me dissatisfied with everything that could have been. Everything from the intro to the initial introduction of Tsumugu was absolutely sublime but after that point I feel like the show stumbles and is never able to quite pick up the pieces on the writing front. Tsumugu never does anything significant after that point. Nudist Beach, an organization that's implied to have much more significance to the overall arching plot, gets wrecked in a single episode. The "Fiber Bullet" plot point is completely dropped and forgotten about the moment it's brought up. Ryouko has the world bend over backwards to make up for her fuckups (how many times did she "get away" after being pummeled by Satsuki's forces?), the field trip arc was pointless and a waste of time, etc etc etc. It really feels like there was a major re-write during the middle of development where they just veer off into a completely different direction. i liked it, the plot was far from a masterpiece but i think it did alright, it was entertaining and didn't have too many gaping plot holes, and everything else from the style, to the fight scenes, to the music was fantastically done. i wouldn't rate kill la kill as one of the greatest anime's ever, but i would rate it as one of the most entertaining. thats what i think of it at least, i understand its something of a polarizing anime. That's pretty much how I think of it. The plot wasn't its strong point. The plot was alright. Not bad, but not epic and amazing either. And still not the best anime IMO. I like it a lot, but it's not my favorite.
For me is was just the sheer entertainment of it. That's why I like it. It was never boring, at any point. There were no slow episodes and it kept your attention at all times. The combinations of the great visuals, the subtle (and not so subtle) jokes, and the sheer weirdness of every new thing was great.
It also has a pretty awesome soundtrack, IMO. Ragyo Kiruin's theme was great, on particular.

Just "finished" Spice and Wolf.
I love it. The characters are absolutely great. I know that a character is good when you can't predict their acriosn, but their actions end up being exactly what they would do. That is a sign of good character design and growth. ...The lack of closure is devastating.
It kills me that there isn't a third season, even though word is that the light novels were finished a long time ago. Why did they stop? Surely this show was/is fairly popular, so why didn't they finish the series?

Read a book and learn something! No ****, it's called manga A real book!
I book is just a vessel for a story or message. Who cares if some books tell their stories in different ways?
Is the experience somehow lessened by reading it as a graphic novel or on a tablet?
