But I have run into this before, and try to keep comments spoilered until subs have been out a while or others have plastered real spoilers all over the place. These threads are basically fansub threads, so I have learned to spoiler my comments on raws. I'll keep trying to be more careful, I suppose, although I'm not sure my mind can actually grasp this idea. I'd feel better if Shiroth told me it was actually he who felt spoiled, rather than some theoretical person. In any case, thanks to you both for keeping me alert, painful and confusing as I find this.

As a rule, I avoid high school romances. If it's sappy, sentimental, soap operas I'm after, I'd sooner watch K-drama instead. At least then there would be real actresses I can ogle and fantasise over.
So, it was with some apprehension that I gave True Tears a try. And sure enough, I come across the same contrived plots of shy girls, love triangles, clueless boys, and a lead hero whom every single girl seems to fall in love with. It even has the *tada* Spoiler:
But then, here I am, seven episodes later, and I'm still looking forward to the rest of the show. The overall aesthetic is very attractive, and the characters are highly likeable even though I find the plot annoyingly predictable. Isurugi Noe made the show fun and interesting ever since Episode 2, and she continues to make me smile, while Aiko is now my favourite girl in the show. I'll be rooting for her, even if it seems futile. Oh wait. What's this? Arrgh. I've been hooked while my guard is down! Dammit! I should be more careful next time when checking out high school romances. |

The drama CD... I had completely forgotten it until today, but randomly found it and listened... Really nostalgic, everything is... BGM... characters... Stories were nicely done too. As expected, Hiromi's story is the lightest and Noe's story (focused on her after being dumped) is the gloomiest...
Poor Noe... Though I support Hiromi, so I guess I didn't suffer as much as Noe's as they listened to this CD. Geez... Whenever Miyukichi talks, I hear Takumi's voice... As always, Noe's attitude is as denpa as ever... *sigh* Well, it really was a good anime... Hiromi saikou desu~!

There might be a logical reason for that. Back in the early days, the show was supposed to get a Blu-Ray release, and then it was cancelled and released only on DVD. So it could be that people who were planning to buy the show decided to hold off and wait for the Blu-Rays rather than purchase the DVDs. With Clannad and Haruhi, no Blu-Ray release was ever promised, so most of the people who wanted to buy the show may have already bought it on DVD (not knowing whether it may or may not get re-released "some day"), so may not want to buy it again.
I know that, speaking personally, I'd definitely re-buy true tears if it were released on Blu-Ray. Not 100% sure about the other two (even though I like them a lot as well). |

but the title of the article was "Japanese Fans Rank Most Wanted Anime on BD" it's irrelevant if there will ever be a haruhi blu ray b/c it's a 'want' survey. else those entries wouldn't be posted in the first place. the small sample size leads me to believe that the Japan’s Blu-ray Disc Association really isn't an influential group and this survey is probably meaningless b/c honestly just looking at "Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu 2.4% 209 votes". really. 209 votes? only 209 people want a haruhi blu ray release? it's like going to an anime convention or something and finding out only 2 or 3 people out of 100 want a haruhi blu ray. i find it odd

You and me both. Still one of, if not my, favorite anime series ever.

Anyone has read the review of TT DVD on ANN? It doesn't seem fair at all to me. I understand that some people could be not happy about hiromi ending, but be honest a bit.

But then again, I fundamentally disagree with the premise that one should be able to take any which anime, watch it, and expect to be entertained just by virtue of the fact that other anime have entertained you before (any more than watching any random movie, or reading and random book, or playing any random game). But this is what these people have to do to justify their paycheque -- they get paid to watch everything so that other people don't have to, and just don't blame them if they don't like most of what they're forced to watch. This is why knowing the reviewer's tastes and biases (and where you stand in relation) is almost more important than whatever they have to say. |

I'm I the only one who thinks that Hiromi didn't do anything wrong -it seems that people are blind to this show and don't seem to focus on Hiromi.. but Ai made 10 times worst mistakes than Hiromi and she was more messed up than her because of her self-loathing (even the writer said that ).At least Hiromi's actions were understandabe given her situation ..messy for sure but she didn't go as far as Ai did ..did she ? though I liked all characters and Ai was my fav .. I'm sorry but he's reveiw doesn't make sence at all ..He only taiked a bout Nobuse and Noe..this review sucks .. |
