So, I just started to read Tobaku Mokushiroku Kaiji, and man, it's certainly awesome - I think I need to look for the anime soon.

Well there was a reason MSN ended so abruptly, something to do with the author not agreeing with new copyright laws I believe.
Kingdom Hearts.
Picked up Trigun and Lupin III. Their art styles are pretty different from K-ON! or Bleach, it's old-school (which makes sense since they were published in 1995 and 1967 respectively). Kinda fun to explore how manga-style art has changed over time

Also, in 2011 Ryukishi07 published the "Kira" season to celebrate Higurashi anniversary with 4 OAVs episodes. They are simply crazy, a must watch (like Rei season OAVs)!

Also, in the manga there are some arcs that are based on the videogames (like the "Beyond Midnight arc"). So, because I can't play a game in full japanese, I'm happy because I can at least read them.

Reading Hayate no Gotoku all way from Vol 01 till the newest. I'm kinda lost interest in this manga starting from Vol 10 up but then the Athena arc really gives nice turn from the usual comedy, great.

Well anyways, Hayate is a common harem. So don't expect a really deep and serious plot since it's a 4th-wall breaker-comedy harem.
A couple...
Switch Girl
Ware wa Ken-Ou!!
Dengeki Daisy
Nisekoi
Bloody Cross
Watashi ni xx Shinasai!
GE - Good Ending
Infinite Stratos
Unbreakable Machine Doll
Rosario + Vampire 2
They barely get released though, Nisekoi and GE are weekly, Rosario is bimonthly, and idk about the others, they seem to release at random intervals...

Haha it's not like I expect a deep plot from hayate, I read the series for the comedy but it get dragged so much I starting to get bored. That's why when I get to Athena arc it gives a nice turn from the comedy even if it doesn't have very deep plotThe Ribbon Red wrote:

True. But you know, they'll get back to the usual harem comedy right? (If you're still reading the Athena arc)Sallad4ever wrote:

Though there are some non-mainstream harem out there, I'm not really interested into harem right now (being single and all). And I forgot to read Umineko, damnit.
Hayate no gotoku was already good to begin with, but the end of the world (Athena) arc just made it go up 10 levels in awesome, it went downhill and started fluctuating at a low level from then, though stuff seems to be picking up now.
Btw not talking about anime, not as good as the manga because no Athena, and I didn't like the art for the second season AT ALL, the openings and endings also took a hit, that wonder wind song was annoying, and the rest don't hold a candle to the originals, Honjitsu Mankai watashi iro was good though.

They probably saving Athena for the 3rd Season, or just saving it 'till needed. I mean, Hayate (Anime) doesn't really have a clear plot to begin with (since they only force a plot in the 3-4 last episodes in S1 & S2).
To put it simple, the anime is a typical stereotype harem show.
Finished Umineko EP 1. Moving to EP 2.
I just caught up with Hayate no Gotoku, Yotsuba&! and Unbalance x Unbalance.

It's a supernatural genre, it's not a normal romance, and it's also a very funny parody of the videogame world. Try to watch the first episodes if you can, the original name is "Kami Nomi Zo Shiru Sekai".

So, if you know the story, why you said that it's quite decent and why focused on the fact that you can't take it in a realistic way? I can't find something really bad in this show/manga so I think it's very good.The Ribbon Red wrote:

Well, the introductions a bit weird. It's interesting to see an otaku+hikikomori stepping out of his comfort zone to face the conflicts. But having to "date girls with crevasse in their hearts" took me a while to adjust.Accelerator-kun wrote:

But I suppose they repay it back with an interesting "god-stuck-inside-humans" dilemma that gives them memories of Keima "dating" them.
You are trying to take it too seriously, yes, there is some accuse to hikikomori but you just have to enjoy the charm of the protagonists, trust me, don't think too much, just enjoy the show.The Ribbon Red wrote:

Hey, telling a story of a Hikikomori stepping out of his comfort zone to save those who're dear/strangers to him are very impressive. I bet no one has ever thought of that before this manga came out. But the concept that I had a hard time adjusting to is how the problems are solved by dating the girls. Though I'm fine now, seeing as the god-dilemma problem made the previous concept much more worthy and intriguing.Accelerator-kun wrote:

And that's my point of view for the manga. It's not that I look down on it. Hell, I'm praising it LOL.
