But--- they're not describing how they're going to kill each other unless they're about to actually, you know, attack.

On an unrelated note.
Full version of Meiya Kadenrou, series opening, has additional guitar sequence closer to the end, as opposed to leaked version.
Gotta love dem guitars!

Sannomiya Shiho, huh. I approve.

Wait, what drama cd?

Towazugatari (不問語), came out Jan 21th with a script book like Haykumonogatari of Bake~ series.

...That's not the way to enjoy the episode. The dialogue is good enough on its own, people shouldn't need to read some 'witty' parody/meta-narrative into it to find it engaging. This sort of 'explanation' for this serie's 'weak points' is unnecessary.

The art is fine overall but I'm kinda bothered by the close-ups on the eyes; kinda wish they would have added some more detail -- or at least tried to.

I'm simply amazed you were capable of focusing on the eyes whilst those subtitles were just flying by...

Ehh.. its actually pretty slow compared to say Bakemonogatari. Try checking your player settings you might be watching it at 150% speed or something.

Got it via japanese wiki entry on Katanagatari, also the new about the drama cd was on the anime website, but didn't get its own page there.

SquirrelLuvsPnut · 2010-01-31, 16:32

WTF?
The Katanagatari JP wiki page is really effed up when you put it through Google translate. It translates Togame's name as "Prick". I'm not joking. It also say's Koumori's hobby is ceramics.

I don't think this part is wrong.

My comment was towards SuperKnuckles and Katanagatari.

Dude, I would give anything to have Koumori's profile paragraph translated properly. It's hard to get anything out of the automatic translations. So far I think it talks about his abilities, his distinct laugh, and it might say someing about his upbringing, but who knows.

Probably infuenced by phrases like "ryoushin no togame" /"prick[pang] of conscience". Funny, though.

Ahh google translate. For this game Latale's wiki it translates something like "spear case" to "vigina holder".
There are alternative full site translation sites... though their names are escaping me now.

I like the simple art style.

Although the plot is slightly confusing me on the details, I'll figure it out.

Girl meets boy, and they both go out to hunt for 12 swords. The end.
Its not so complicated.

Vexx · 2010-02-01, 02:29

Thought I'd download the first ep or two.... good god, what kind of crack are the fansubbers smoking? 300+MB for .avi? 800+MB for .mkv?

... eek? ...

May have to put this on slow drip...
