Enthusiast Cyborg – Ep9: VividRed Operation 1 Live Commentary

What happens when you cross a considerable amount of sugar, endless boredom and an exciting episode of anime?

A F******G LIVE COMMENTARY OF SAID ANIME BITCHES.

I LIVE COMMENTATE OVER EPISODE 1 OF VIVIDRED OPEATION.

WHY? BECAUSE I GOT SO WORKED UP AND EXCITED BECAUSE I HAD SO MUCH FUN MOCKING IT I JUST HAD TO RECORD IT. F**K YEAH.

Are you scared of the dark?

Have you ever been so spooked out by a dark passageway you ran down it to get into a lot area? Or have you ever walked down a dark road, covered in dry leaves and have the extreme paranoia that something or someone is following you when you hear leaves cracking behind you?

That is the human emotion of fear, a survival mechanism built into us (and most animals too) to safeguard our sorry arses when we’re in the middle of a s**tstorm.

For today’s post, I will be having the usual “surgical” dissection of a topic with brute force ideology and for today, we have the topic of “The compelling power of Fear” and I will be referencing Tasogare Otome X Amnesia.

There will be many various posts in the near future where I speak of various aspects of Tasogare and similar manga/anime (like Sankarea).

Warning: Spoilers for TasogareAnd pic spam

Nope, I'm certainly not biased toward Persona 4 in this compilation of previews. It just so happened that I had a Persona 4 widescreen wallpaper ready. It's purely coincidence.

Fall 2011 Season Preview on Multiple Perspectives

Nope, I'm certainly not biased toward Persona 4 in this compilation of previews. It just so happened that I had a Persona 4 widescreen wallpaper ready. It's purely coincidence.

Prior to compiling this post, the regular bloggers of AOIA, that is, Valence, Azure and yours truly, @fkeroge, had some light conversation over at MSN. The original plan was to just copy/paste everything we talked about in the convo over here, but as we have expected, it didn’t really work out very well. So now, without further ado, I, your host for the AOIA season previews for Fall 2011, present you with the completely biased opinions of the AOIA blogging staff. Most of us, anyway.

Synonpses provided by me and most pictures are ripped off from Scamp’s own 2011 Fall Preview so I don’t have to Google them. The Cart Driver is a great site. Visit it if you haven’t yet.

On fanservice

Fanservice is an inevitable, unavoidable aspect of anime. In most shows, there would always be at least one scene or two with a female character being in some kind of sexually provocative situation, and we bloggers would thus term it as ‘fanservice’.Some bloggers even go to the extent of calling an entire show a ‘fanservice anime’. However, on the subject of fanservice, I have several points to raise. No ecchi scenes in here, move on

Fanservice: Aren’t you tired of it?

Look, I’ll be honest with you. I’m sick and tired of all the fanservice in anime today. I think it’s really demeaning for girls to see that their animated counterparts are (almost) always the receiving end of “accidental” groping, panchira, compromising positions, master-servant relationships and more things that give anime a bad rap.
