Chewin, I wasn't trying to give the idea that HF is bad, far from it.
 
I just dislike Sakura a lot but like House points out in his post here HF isn't just a route about Sakura. 
 
Still personally prefer UBW as a whole.

Ah no, that wasn't what I meant, but that Sakura isn't that impressive of a character in comparison to Rin and Saber, which was the impression I got from your comments a while ago.

Apologize that I wasn't specific.

Happy Presidents Day!

If all of you don't like Sakura, I'll take her.

 

Plus she's got Rider and as far is relations go Sakura + Rider > Rin + Archer.

Man, don't date someone to get with their hotter non-worm friend.

Just because Rider is based does not mean she can make up for Sakura. So Rin and Archer are still the best team.

She's all yours!

 

I'll be sitting in camp Caster

 

[Mr.House]

I'm still waiting for my Caster route from Nasu dammit!

[TheClonesLegacy]

I've posted this before right?

Yupp! Last time I declared my allegiance to camp Caster

 

But that's fine

 

You can post it often!

Ok, have been binging on LotGH I do enjoy it. Although at times it can be a little dull( mainly due to the Machiavellian politics ) but, I get it. Seems like both sides have corrupt leadership( among the upper elite ). While at the bottom you have Yang and them trying to make the best of a bad situation. At times I have wondered how they are capable of fighting said war, when it seems some of them are more concerned with advancing their political standing. Or, am I mistaken?

Internal struggles during conflicts are quite normal. In terms of the Alliance, it showcases how influental individuals in power can have in a democratic state, wherein it comes to personal desires being a driving motif despite trying to represent the public interest. They do discuss in one episode the difficulties the war has in the nation on a socioeconomical level, which is something I respect.

Miura was writing Berserk when LOTGH was being done.
 
He was still writing it when all the prequels in 2000s were being done.
 
Jesus f Christ ><
 
Yeah, Martin is a blessing in comparison to Miura.
 
But to be fair... being a mangaka is harder than being an author imo.

Goddammit Miura...

Ah well, I have anime and manga to keep me busy til 2077. Maybe Berserk will have updated with a chapter or two by then

I'll take both.

Especially since during the events of Heaven's Feel, she'll purge her body off Zouken's worms.

 

Caster is a very, very, very, very close second, but I'm not going up against Souichirou. Guy is a decent dude and deserves Caster foot massages!

I find Medea's obsession underwhelming. Rena>

I remember Nasu saying that one of the very early discarded routes was a route with a loli caster. 

 

NASU, WHYYYYYYYY?!

 

I'll take both.

Have you read the VN?

[Fidite Nemini]

Have you read the VN?

 

Still in the process, but couldn't help avoiding spoilers.

[Fidite Nemini]

Guh, how I hate it ... that moment when you read a manga, read, read some more and then all of a sudden it says:

 

 

Kingdom chapter 421 has not been released yet.

[TheClonesLegacy]

Night dudes.

 

 

Watch and enjoy.

 

It's even got an Angel Beats/AoT opening.

Been months since I've seen this.

[CrazyRah]

Done with Another which was overall a rather mediocre horror/thriller show. It had a decent beginning and an alright middle but the closer it got to the end the worse it got and it was pretty bad towards the end with just so much stuff going so very wrong. It's mediocre in the character department and the same goes for animation. The ost is incredibly unmemorable. Just being done with it I can't actually recall any tracks.

 

 

But hey, at least it had an eyepatch!

[TheClonesLegacy]

Everyone likes Eyepatches!

Ok so I'm going to level with you guys. I've spent about 7 hours total so far on this top 15 post and I'm burnt out. It's not even fun anymore and it's just basically turned into a an assortment of multiple book posts combined into one gushing about each series. It's already the single largest post I've done and I'm not even close to being done yet so I need to call it. Given an indefinite amount of time I could work on this leisurely and come out with something half decent but right now I'm just stressing out too much about it. I'm going to give a much more simplified version of it, which I admit it bad considering how long I've waited but my brain needs a serious break atm or I'm really going to start hating posting and talking about anime and I don't want that.

 

anyways here we go:

 

Spoiler

disclaimers: I'm not going to be including anything I went through more then a few years ago, with the exception of Berserk since that is still relatively fresh in my head. The animes which would likely be on my list but I decided to hold off on actually putting on because of this are: Neon Genesis Evangelion, Full Metal Alchemist (original) and the manga (source material for Brotherhood), Video Experiments Lain, Akira (manga version), .Hack//sign, Cowboy Bebop, Samurai Champloo and The Slayers. A few of these I was hoping to revisit eventually in the future but until then they're put off to the side of this list to collect dust unfortunately >_> Same with anything that I haven't finished like LotGH and Princess Tutu (although I'll make exceptions if I've seen completed seasons that stand strong on their own for a show)

 

A few things that can effect my opinions or certain themes which may click particularly well with me to help give a bit of context. First off is something I've said a number of times before: A story needs to work with all it's parts as a whole, and if one part drags on or is weaker then it drags everything else down. Some arcs in a show can be weaker then others, but I hate storyline arcs or character arcs that feel pointless or like they're just trying to waste my time. I do however like good buildup. A story doesn't have to be deep and meaningful right away, infact many of my favorites are ones that appear quite simple at first and then spend a great deal of the series messing around with that initial appearance, which works particularly well in deconstruction stories. Things like animation and the OST can also have a large impact on my opinion of something, although the actual impact of those things can vary quite a bit.  Almost everything on this list has tracks that I can either listen to on repeat for hours, or ones that can destroy me emotionally just by listening to it simply by making me remember the scene it played alongside. I prefer surreal type of animation the most, particularly the darker toned types that are full of large amounts of symbolism.

Theme is large since I like the story to feel like it has a purpose, and something that makes me feel like I have experienced something unique as I went through the story, and furthermore that the purpose of it is being conveyed effectively. This is particularly hard for longer animes to do since many of my favorites, and many of the ones I feel have the most purpose and meaning are much shorter. When I take a good 100+ episode anime it's much more difficult for it to stand up to a good 13 episode anime. Some themes do work better when spread over a longer period of time however, such as Breaking Bad (I know not an anime) and Berserk, I just feel it is much rarer for them to have a point and avoid the black hole of pointless storytelling that is known as fillers that are usually just there to waste time until the next arc. Also in terms of themes I like ones that push my understanding of a concept and deal with grey area and ideas that have multiple points of view and are hardly simple. Duality, love, memories, connections and staying true to ones self (or discovering ones true self) are all themes that I find especially drawn to.
