Anime Wishlist: Summer 2011

by

Chag: I confess: I have a strange relationship to these rants. Oftentimes I would dread editing these, thinking they would be horrible and unredeemable, yet when I actually do get around to putting it together, the rant is always quite a bit better than I gave credit for. I still find myself asking "why would anyone want to listen to these?" now and, but as the YouTube subscriber count climbed to 50 in spite of the neglect, I guess there are all sorts of strange folk in the world!

Anyhow, here's the second Anime Wishlist instalment in audio format. As per usual, Ashlotte has to put up with my meagre watch list. Also, I think I might have dropped my cheap-ass microphone one too many times, because the audio quality on my end was less than stellar. I've bought a new microphone since then, but for this time, bear with it!

The first part has us talking about ancient grimoires, rollcake-dispensing robots, girls with too much money and time, and spunky superheroes.

  • 1:25 - Dalian - Dantalian no Shoka
  • 5:03 - Shinonome Nano & Hakase - Nichijou
  • 8:02 - Kanade Suzutsuki - Mayo Chiki
  • 9:04 - Dragon Kid & Blue Rose - Tiger & Bunny

The second part is about some blonde chick and a loli who loves  playing with balls.

  • 0:00 - Camille Blanche - Ikoku Meiro no Croisée
  • 2:22 - Hakamada Hinata - Ru-Kyu-Bu!

Finally, there's Q&A, which is by far my favourite thing to edit through every time. We have quite the selection of question this week ranging from the serious to the absolute bonkers. I can see myself totally regretting putting this up few months down the road, but since I've never been one to follow sound reason, time to fire away! After this week, I hope that everyone will know that when we say "anything goes", we meant it. =D

  • 0:24 - Do you see yourselves maintaining a collection of figures when you're in your 40's or is there a garbage can or for sale signs in your collection's future? :P
  • 4:10 - The question is more targeted torwards Ash but Chag can also answer if he wants. Do you have a favorite illustration of Hatsune Miku?
  • 7:23 - If you could be any loli for a day, who would you be and why?
  • 10:34 - What kind of underwear do you prefer on your figures? Traditional white? Frills? Stripes?

  1. HOBBY HOVEL RISES FROM THE GRAVE

    Chag, I don’t think I can consider you a trust-worthy source for opinions on the Japanese animes anymore.

    I actually don’t think I really want any figures from anything that ended in the summer.  Maaaaaaaaaaaaybe a Figma Nano with Shark Puppet, but that’s about it.  I think I just want more yuri doujins than anything.

    I think Chag would make a very bad girl.  Also, you’ll come out and say proudly that you want to have sex as a loli, but you can’t talk about underwear?

  2. it seems there was not much figure material in this last season.
    I would like to have a cute figure of Saya from Blood C, I loved her characterdesign,
    maybe something with a swappable head for the red eyes.

    From Mayo Chiki I would rather like to see a good figure of Nakuru, the megane goddess.
    Kanade was hot but her outfit was a bit too closed for my taste.

    pffft Camille I want her younger crazy sister, Alice was so adorable.

    haha terrible question, eh? I have more up my sleeve, but not today XD
    to be honest I haven’t seen these great illustrations of Miku, thx for showing me,
    especially the first one looks cool ^^

    lol I guess I don’t want to be a loli for one day, maybe in case there would be a hot older sister “lets take a bath” XD

    • Just a bath? Tsk tsk, you’re missing out on some golden opportunities there, Fab! =P

      …Though I think I should at least concede the fact that not everyone is as brilliant/screwed in the head as I am.

    • I wanted to like Blood but just didn’t really do anything for me…Chara design was indeed nice though!

      Haha well again nice chara design I won’t argue on that point but such a boring character Nakuru was…And come on Fab thats part of the fun is imagining whats underneath there! Like anytime she hiked up her skirt a bit and was barefoot…mmm~

      You sure pick some odd characters haha…Mmm Alice was kinda cute, but didn’t do much for me character depth wise since Camille outclassed her so hard.

      Haha your welcome~ Unlike Chag I have huge folders of various art I find places. ^_^

  3. Goddammit Chag, you and your twisted moral model! Pantsu chou-embarrassing, but bring on the underage sex! I would be Remilia, just so you guys know. Seems a pretty safe choice; all powerful, unkillable, CHARISMA, and I could make Sakuya extend the day into infinity, at least until Zun makes a new game on that premise and the player character comes to kick my ass. But in the meantime, a world of women! So many choices! The things I could make Meiling do!

    Thanks for rephrasing Nichijou as the best bad show you’ve ever seen. It seems you fear my wrath more than I at first believed.

    Has a man ever appeared on the Anime Wishlist? A brief re-glance would tell me not so. What with Fate/Zero-the-flagship-of-gar this season, I expect this blatant sexism to change in the near future. HH must spearhead our demands for Alexander in all his rippling glory, or maybe just topless Gil and his sexy lion.

    Dragon Kid reminded me of Chie. My only experience with her is that one donjon. I came, I saw, I came, I left it alone. Imitators have no role in my grand plan. The P4 anime better get the royal figure treatment; if Angel Beats can be taken as any sort of precursor, the mob should be lapping this shit up.

    And Chag, you typo’d ‘puttinig’, you nub

    • There’s one problem with your idea, and that is the lack of a cock. What good is a vagina if you aren’t being impaled by a mighty pork sword? And no, that one male character Zun pooped out ages ago doesn’t count. Are there any canon futas in Gensokyo? If so, everything would be alright. (tl;dr: Chag wants cock)

      Yeah, after watching episode two I’d definitely expect to break the blockade against testosterone in the wishlist. Be it known that I want to lick Caster’s delicious frog eyeballs. Broskander and shirtless Gil are fine too, I guess.

      You know, there are so many people bitching about the lack of P4 figures that I seriously derive a sadistic pleasure from it. Even though this continued lack means there would be no Naoto figures, the butthurt tears of P4 fanboys are too much. I wish they keep making/re-making Aegis figures for this exact reason. Fighting game version where?

      HUSH.

  4. No love for Yuru Yuri eh? Well… it’s not really a popular show strictly speaking, and was kind of boring, but the girls are pretty cute though. Wouldn’t mind a nendoroid or two on it.

    It seems like Konoe is the only character from Mayo Chiki the manufacturers were interested in making at the moment. There’s one by Alphamax, and one that was up for preorder just two days ago from CM Corp. Perhaps Japanese love cross-dressing girls with 150% dere personality once their cover is blown.

    I gave up on Nichijou after 5 episodes. I tried to hypnotize myself into liking the show, but damn, the effect was gone as soon as I started hearing the opening song. Hopefully KyoAni can pick something better next time, for now, I’ll wait for K-ON the movie.

    LOL @ Chag’s twisted pervy mode… tsk tsk, the guts of some people. As if sex change isn’t enough, you just have to escalate it into a whole new level. XD

    • Haha, I dropped Nichijou on episode 4 initially, but when exam season came around, I needed something brainless to distract me from the general misery, and Nichijou managed to fill that role. Still, I find it pretty hard (if not impossible ) to defend Nichijou. I just really wish Kyoani would make another Full Metal Panic series. Going by the animation in Nichijou, it’s blatantly obvious that the Kyoani has the talent and resources to make a top-notch action series, and as much as I enjoyed K-ON, I really wish they would flex their muscles. Or they can just make a Planetarian OVA/movie, for which I would offer my firstborn to. Come onnnn Kyoani.

      “Twisted pervy mode”?! The only thing twisted here is the collection aversion to trying out the equipment!! Remember: it’s not gay if the balls aren’t touching!

      • Isn’t there a new FMP manga featuring a bunch of new casts? I don’t know if it’s a direct sequel to TSR, but it looks promising. And you really love Planetarian don’t you, Chag? I remembered you praised it before waayyyyy back in one of the earlier HH episodes. I’m all for it if KyoAni can get their lazy asses moving.

        Well, it’s not really gay if you turned into a female. But still… the idea of screwing around with another guy just so you can experience the sensation from a girl’s perspective. Hmm, I don’t know, you can just use a dildo to solve that problem. BTW, did you get the idea from X-Change (a series of hentai games) or something? =P

    • I made it half way through the show about before I just got fed up with glasses girl…I want real Yuri not “Oh noes its GLASSES off delusion time!” for what felt like 10x an episode… >_<

      Yea she seems to be the favorite for sure…I can kinda see why she does have a very nice chara design I just find her a bore. Bring on the sadistic oujo I say!

      I gave up on it at episode 3…I hated 1…2 gave me hope and 3 just crushed again…Terrible show.

      • Yeah, that fantasizing through glasses was interesting for the first two minutes, but the increasing frequency was bumped up to the level of pure annoyance after the fourth episode.

        Kanade definitely has a lot more potential, her nature opens up the opportunity to create more lewd and suggestive poses. I certainly would love to see Orchid Seed do a figure on her.

  5. Quite educational, since I didn’t watch any of these shows. If anything I did like Nano from all those 4 episodes I watched of Nichijou. I wanna watch that Japanese loli show someday though, both her and the blonde loli look cute as hell to me.

    Glad to see I contributed to a fun Q&A.

    For a loli I would totally choose Nanoha, I wanna try befriending someone, plus awesome loli yuri sex with Fate.

    Lets see this time it’s a question for each one.

    For Ashlotte, you mentioned you get approached by old folk right, what’s some interesting anecdote about one of those time?

    For Chag, so you wanna have sex, what positions do you wanna try? One or more partners?

    • Being Nanoha for one day is a tempting proposition. I was thinking about hunting down people I have beefs against when it occurred to me: has Nanoha ever killed anyone who’s not a robot/retarded magical animal? Has ANYONE killed another person with magic in the Nanoha universe? Nanoha’s mighty beams may shatter stone and obliterate concrete, but it is amazingly non-lethal. This would not do.

  6. Am I really the only one who liked Nichijou? I’ve yet to talk to someone else that did.

    “The one with the Japanese loli” Everyone calls it that it seems. As if Japanese titles weren’t complicated enough without random french thrown in. I heard of the Camille girl from of friend and she seemed like fun. But I ended up not watching the show, or any show really, last season.

    As for the Q&A, ah, I almost feel like I should apologize for causing such emotional distress to Ash, almost. So here’s the next question:

    You get to spend a day with any loli of your liking. Who and why?

    note: Pick wisely as you must live with the consequences of your actions of anything that happens that day. An addendum, the day will end in a standard 24 human hours, no fancy magic and crap to prolong the day.

    • Another loli question? Now I’m beginning to think that you’re trying to land me in jail somehow. How can I formulate a question like that without spilling beans of dubious legality? Perhaps there’s something I would want out of a day with a loli that doesn’t involve *those* things…but I’m drawing a complete blank. I shall ponder this in the coming days.
