He's a surprising character in and inherently unrealistic genre, which, I think, is why he's as polarizing as he is. one of the main reasons why I'm so scared of watching this bloody series Just jump into it. It's a classic, even though it is definitely not perfect. There's a lot to enjoy about it even if you don't end up liking it.

I finished Soul Eater the other day and I thought the ending was dumb, even for that anime's standards. I really enjoyed the first 40 or so episodes though.

Just watched the first episode of Attack On Titan for the first time and man, it doesn't waste any time getting right into the effed up territory as you see this kid's mom get eaten while their town is overrun with giants.

Watching ERASED currently. I'm liking it a lot. The first episode tries to condense way too much information, but after that it's a "next episode"-clicker. 

I've been binge watching anime like crazy lately.  In the last couple of weeks, I managed to finish Durarara!! (loved it, sequel series to follow), Noir (it was okay) and Terror In Resonance (I'll be coming back to this one again, so good).  Now, Attack On Titan is on deck and I'm having a bit of nostalgia from the Toonami days with The Big O.

As far as I remember Attack on Titan, it gets better and better towards the end. I can't wait to see the next season.

I'm currently watching Gundam Seed, which is not bad, but too slow-paced for my taste.

Since the winter season is coming to an end, and I'm still trying to catch up on the shows from it, I'll talk on the shows I'm able to finish thus far:

Okay, definitely going to the side right now, trying to start the Monogatari series during spring break (the last couple of days of it anyway). So far, I finished Bake- and Nisemonogatari, and I really enjoyed it for obvious reasons. The art and animation were beautiful and definitely not of the usual anime, and of f**king course the dialogue and the characters were the main driving force behind it all. Laughing my ass off as well as really being enthralled with the action (when it actually comes lol), Hitagi = bae, her and Araragi being one hell of a couple, I can't wait to see what else comes next whenever I resume my adventure with this series. The pausing to try and read the subtitles (especially with on-screen dialogue) was a pain in the ass, however (especially the first couple of minutes of the first episode of Bake, dear God (also heard it was all in Kizumonogatari as well)).

I like Volleyball, Ajin, Titans Attack

I'm re-watching Steins Gate and started watching the Rebuild of Eva movies.  I love (so far) how the first movie stays pretty close to the series before veering off in it's own direction with the second and third movies.
