    The time skip strength levels are pretty screwed up, I'll give you that. But I haven't read any of the manga at this point so I'm hoping things even out for proper suspense later. HxH manga I couldn't stop reading and I mostly care about the story, this anime series should be better then...

    Interesting evaluation, I watch one of these for my weekly shounen fix. I'd rate them the similar as far as targeted age. The only reason I stopped watching HxH was because I read all the manga already last year and forcefully stopped myself with fairy tail.

    Agreed, i'm surprised i kept up but at least it's ending now on a high note. This chapter is far shorter then normal though, da fuq.

    Doubt she killed him but it seems like he has some auto-repair function. He was aware that she hurt him so I don't think it's a backup of his mind but probably body. Where the hell is he storing a backup of his body anyway, unless it's a backup of his body component data stored his mind.

    I'm not gonna lie I shed tears a bit for One Week Friends in the first two episodes. Haven't watched the third yet. As for Mahouka, I guess we'll have to wait and see but I feel like they are hiding too much of his powers, that restoration bit was also interesting. Brynhildr is getting...

    Definitely an issue of specialization but I wouldn't say physical, per se. He was using some difficult magic in the end of episode two with the three compounding waves and again using two of those bracelets type things in episode three, which the 1st course guy thought would be impossible for...

    Mahouka definitely went up another point in my book after today's episode. Looks like we'll actually have some action, I was afraid they would be too secretive at first dragging the plot along for no reason. They haven't revealed the full extent of his abilities but we are getting a good idea.

    The Expanse

    No, quite different. I've only read the first two books but they take place within our solar system alone so far. This is mostly humans vs. humans it's a bit more but don't want to give away important plot points.

    The Expanse

    Yeah, syfy is just trying to ride GRRM's comments about the first book and Game of Thrones popularity. It really makes no sense to compare the two.

    One Week Friends - That show just hits you in the feels. Just watched episode 1 & 2, skipped it last week because it's not the type of show I would watch often but it came recommended. Should be one of the better series this season. Brynhildr seems to have gotten even more dark.

    The Expanse

    They might actually be putting a lot of money into this considering they are using known movie writers for scripting. Hopefully they stick to the books which were good and don't add too much filler to space out the time. These authors put out a book once a year so far for the last three years...

    12 Monkeys The Series [Syfy]

    I can't remember the last time I saw a sci-fi channel original show that I actually liked. If I remember correctly, even SG1 started in one of those regular networks. Pretty sure they can take any concept and shit the bed. Edit: Just remembered battlestar galactica. That was probably just...

    Uh, What? Don't remember how Reed was involved except later in the war on the Stark/Baratheon side. Since we're on the subject, I still hold that Snow is probably Lyanna/Rhaegar's kid. I don't see what else really she would have cared about promise wise with her last breath other then to...

    Out of the new shows I've seen "The Irregular at Magical High School," which seems to have potential. The first 15 minutes were to introductory and bit boring but based on the last five it could be good.," which One piece is biggest weakness now is that they don't take breaks. Episodes as a...

    So i finally decided to give fairy tail first series a try after downloading it almost a year ago. It's actually pretty decent after you watch the first six or so episodes. I also used an online filler episode guide to skip all the non-manga storyline episodes that have zero progression on the...

    SAO was better in a few respects then Horizon but they aren't trying to do the same thing at all here. Log Horizon wins in the world building department as it's simply far more rich and in depth.

    SyFy network admits they fucked up

    Funny you mention that, pretty sure a lot of the same people were involved in making it. The problem with wheel of time is it's going to be hard to implement after the first three or so books. Besides that, anyone outside of HBO is guaranteed to fail.

    Or he's extremely confident about his ability to judge her character and slowly developed some trust in her. Her goals and potential marriage to the Kholin household (not known for being sneaky like Sadeas) meant that he could understand her. Still that doesn't mean he didn't keep his most...

    Also pretty sure Sanderson doesn't go with convoluted powers usually so if the book mentions IQ variances then that is what we have. Powers in his books may be used creatively but always falls under the original system. Besides the story doesn't work if Taravangian had all the info from the...

    Sanderson has publicly stated that book three will be a Szeth book and Book five will be a Dalinar book. Based on his past writing patterns I'm guessing we'll see a healthy amount of Kaladin/Shalan/Dalanar pov's there to with a few doses of the other minor characters. I hope we don't get a...
