horizon in the middle of nowhere episode 6 was bad and you should feel bad

Well, I too got recruited to watch and write about a random episode of Horizon. I accidentally watched episode 5 by accident since I just went and watched the most recent episode on the date it was supposed to have aired without realizing that the Olympics had pushed it back a few days. So I am actually doing double duty and talking about both episode 5 and my assigned episode, episode 6. This also meant that I ended up with a little more background than I expected to have. Previously, my online background was the very first episode (which I promptly forgot everything from except that it had an incredibly exposition dump over the end credits to barely scratch the surface of the premise), and a few glances at Wikipedia and TV Tropes solely to say “lolololol this is nonsense lolololol.”

nobody cares

presented without comment: anime with “interesting” english titles

ALL LIGHT NOVELS ARE THE SAME

So JP and I are always rolling our eyes whenever we see some light novel title posted and just for kicks & giggles I decided to go on Amazon Japan and search for the following keywords: Boku no, Oniichan and Imouto. Let’s see what we get!

My girlfriend & childhood friend are too violent

And for kicks & giggles I’m translating all the titles.

hoisted from the archives: the complete minaide! hazukashii… coverage of dragonaut

(In “celebration” of the premiere of Symphogear, whose first episode was one of the most terribad anime that I’ve seen since Dragonaut, I’m republishing my posts from my old blog so that everyone can remember just how unbelievably bad Dragonaut was -jpmeyer)

fall 2007 day 3: boobnaut and goshuushousama ninomiya-kun (originally posted on 10/04/2007)

I watched Dragonaut: The Resonance first. I thought I was getting Starship Troopers. I coulda sworn that one preview that I read said that the show had “people fighting aliens with mecha”. What I got was…Divergence Eve. More than anything else, the one thing that stuck out the most (HAR HAR) from this show were the ridiculously enormous bakunyuu boobs on the mature ladies of this show. This of course made perfect sense when I saw that this show has the same character designer as Gravion and Witchblade.

ridiculous boobs #1

what i was (not) forced to watch this week #30: skelter+heaven

The other day, I came across this. In my curiosity, I wondered if any of those could somehow be worse than Mars of Destruction (which is either the worst or second worst anime that I’ve ever seen, along with Gun-doh Musashi), so I went to the MAL rankings. Skelter+Heaven was right behind Mars of Destruction as the second worst anime ever. Wuh oh! And seriously everyone, when you say that an anime is bad, or that something is the worst anime that you’ve ever seen, you’re almost undoubtedly not even scratching the surface. Something like I dunno, Naruto or K-On or even Sister Princess is not even close when it comes to the true bottom of the heap.

Nobody cares about videogame rape if men are involved.

It's not "teasing" it's fucking violent sexual abuse.

So few years ago JP wrote an article about the hubbub over Rapelay. It was some stupid eroge where the player rapes women but then gets hit by a train or stabbed to death in return (so not like justice wasn’t served!) Recently though, a BL game came out called Hadaka Shitsuji – aka Naked Butler. In my eyes, based on reading both the gameplot for Rapelay & following a friend’s game progress, Hadaka Shitsuji is a million times worse.

Itsuka Tenma no Kuro Usagi is the dumbest show ever

But I’m watching it ironically.

ok fine I'm watching it for this ww

This is like the most 中二病　anime ever. You got the male lead whose name is KUROGANE TAITO, and his rival is KURENAI GEKKOU who has an evil twin brother out to destroy the world whose name is KURENAI HINATA. Hinata is SO BADASS that he wanted ALL THE POWER EVER so he KILLED THEIR PARENTS and now KURENAI GEKKOU is out to take REVENGE with the help of his LOLI SIDEKICK who then transforms into PIKACHU when he KISSES HER (on the forehead.) On top of this our hero is SO BADASS he can die up to 6 times and be revived instantly (これはゾンビですか？) because of the POWER OF LOVE from HIS OWN LOLI SIDEKICK LOVER. Taito also then joins the STUDENT COUNCIL where he continues being Gekkou’s bitchslave アッー！ But because he has not given enough LOVE to his LOLI and also accepted home made bentou from his CHILDHOOD FRIEND [who also happens to be an EVIL MONSTER DEEP INSIDE that will join forces KURENAI HINATA TO TAKE OVER THE WORLD!!!1one]…his loli LOVER gets JEALOUS and gets posessed by a RED SLIMY TENTACLE MONSTER which then turns her into a giant WHORE who proceeds to STRIP OFF HER CLOTHES and hump the main guy’s leg. The only way he can solve this problem is of course to proclaim that she’s the only one for him, and everything is resolved with a KISS♥.

…….and that was only the first 5 episodes. So anyway if you miss those really fucking terrible sci-fi shows from the late 90s, I recommend giving this a shot.
