Zan Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei

[-Sho-]

Lol episode 2 :

XD Tower of druaga , Negima , Hayate no Gotoku , King of the pop ROFL Harumi too ."Tierra sensei"
Well , it was an hilarious episode .
They introduce more Harumi in this season .

[sirn]

Episode 3 has a new OP animation this time, a mix between Zoku and Goku. Totally a parody to (make fun of?) Cosmic Brotherhood Association's Ringo Okure C. Good to see them finally stop mimicking Bure OP.

On a side note, Kafuka is really moe in this opening.

That last bit with Kafuka falling into Itoshiki's arms is going to spawn mountains of fanart. XD But pretty nifty new OP.

Aaah Nico's giving me an error on the full version vid... too lazy to look up the kanji I don't know (aren't I always?) but it looks like the third line is telling me to wait a while and try again... so I guess I'll have to do that. :\

Waitin' for raws...

[ellifeedn]

The new OP animation was not too bad, but it made me feel that there are too many girls in this series.

[ClockWorkAngel]

Well it IS a class after all.

The 2nd episode made me wonder how they would look a few years after...

Pffft. You are talking to a Negima fan here. After Negima, no amount of girls will ever look big enough to you!

On that vein, and after the Lupin/Detective Conan crossover, wouldn't a Negima/Zetsubou Sensei crossover be awesome? They both are animated by SHAFT, and Negi and Itoshiki have even appeared together in a PSP game. It's a natural fit! Negi's never say die attitude vs. Nozomu's pessimism! Harumi and Haruna teamup! Kaere and Setsuna in a drawing contest! Everyone freaking over Konoka and Kafuka having the exact same voice!

[Vallen Chaos Valiant]

Man... the new op is just...

Only ZanSZS would dare to throw in the Challenger Shuttle Explosion.

I gues it makes sense; what with all the Space Travel imagery, that was probably the most "Despair" filled space event to this day, right next to the Shuttle Colombia Disaster.

Or doujins. Take your pick.

But damn, Kafuka sure is cute in this opening <3

And in general. Man I need to make a gif of her little sing-along from ep 2, only I don't recall any obvious loops in that sequence...

... raws sure are slow today, aren't they?

[serenade_beta]

New OP was... nice. The song is still horrid, but with the chaos animation, it feels like it is better now. Good chaos animation though.

The episode was as fun as ever. Though I kind of wish they didn't drag the imposter thing for another episode...
Wonder why they chose Hayate (volume 18?)...

[Celestial Kitsune]

haha I was quite surprised to see works of Michelangelo and Rubens in the new OP

[Jintor]

That opening is ****ing credible.

[ellifeedn]

The Zetsubou drawing song at the end of episode three had two characters I never thought would be doing that.

And I found out that the third parts of the three episodes are part of an arc, of sorts, which will continue to the sixth episode.

[ClockWorkAngel]

The Zetsubou Drawing Song was hilarious.

Can't wait for subs, but some parts do transcend languages.

[Revenger1589]

Apparently Rin only appear on the third part of every episode, acting like some sort of host for the arc. These arcs give some continuity to the show that I find pretty nice.

Also, it's worth saying again, the OP was incredible.

[The Bloodlust Kid]

The part in the OP where the girls' eye color are changed gave me a Persona 4 vibe.

[SuperKnuckles]

Except Persona 4 was never even close to that creepy, ever.

I loved the 'everyone has a switch!' idea in this episode. Oh so true. I keep thinking about stuff like that and it's surprising how many mental/psychological knacks the author is picking up.

Yeah that was great. I quite like how sensei ended up with a button behind his left ear.

I can related to the third choice part so much, especially when it comes to food. I do that on a daily basis when it comes to deciding what to eat. Meru's reaction to getting the wrong drink, and sensei's "nes." cracked me up though.

[mageormike]

I loved both those parts as well. Though the highlights for me were both Meru's father(?) showing up(reminding me of the epic punch that he gave Nozomu in the previous season) and the absolutely frightening(but disturbingly logical) third choice that Chiri made.

That girl just gets more and more homicidal as the show progresses, and I'm not sure if I should laugh or be frightened 0_0

[Noe]

So many switches for so many different purposes.
