So... I just realized I could watch JoJo on Crunchyroll for free. Just a little question... what the hell is it?

 

@Simfam

 

I'm not sure I follow about Geass. People of average intelligence do remarkable things in fiction as well. Heck, even complete idiots (See Son Goku). A lot of Lelouch's later tactical knowledge felt very Hollywood (Napoleonic line tactics? Seriously?) and his strategic knowledge felt like chance, especially at the battle for Damocles. 

 

To be fair, everyone was on the same level of contrivance.I think it mostly showed in R2, though. In R1, it was more tolerable.

Right since i've finished the persona 4 anime and watched all of the ongoing golden one (which is more like a collection of OVA's than a full fledged series) it's time to start LOTGH.

LotGH is more star wars then Star Wars.

Well i'm watching the first episode and to say I have no idea what the **** is going on is an understatement. I'm hoping I will know later on.

You will, the future episodes explore he origins of both the Empire and Alliance and how the war started.

LotGH > Star Wars x10000000

There's a huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge cast of characters, but don't worry, it'll all settle down in the noggin' after a few episodes.

 

All you have to remember now is that the man with blue hair and goes "yare yare" and rubs his hair all the time is the greatest character known to sci-fi.

 

Yes.

 

Even greater than John Sheridan, and that's a hard thing to pull off.

 

@Avenger.

 

R2 has a lot of coincidences, but I won't really call myself a 'general' or 'military genius' but from fiction and history, I've seen that a lot of things have to do with chance. There's hardly a situation where pre-planning will do everything because situations change all the time.

 

R2 has more "let's bring out our huge gun" moments, but hey, what the hell, it's still a card they have to play so why not?  I'd say the war side to Code Geass is just part of the entertainment from the show. But it gets a mixed reaction a lot of the time.

 

Hell, we've even had complaints about LotGH's way of handling tactics and strategy. I can't really argue against these people (nor you for that matter) since I'm not a military genius myself xD

 

I remember once (like a long time ago, before I got into how politics works) I got into a political debate (and it was a debate, not really a b*tch-fest) with KNIGHT OF PHOENIX of all people. That's like trying to out-box Tyson xD

 

Needless to say I was totally ripped apart. So I learnt my lesson and from thereon he earned my respect because he was such a nice guy about it all.

 

Hell, if it wasn't for him I wouldn't have gotten into how politics worked.

 

So, long story short, I'll argue about how weak this is or that is for the overall plot, but strategy and tactics is something I've yet to look into xD

 

The most I know is that waging a two-front war is almost asking to lose. But that's about it really.

No worries, I did *expletive* off, but I *expletive'd* off to go convince my stepfather to watch Halo: Nightfall later in the year, watch a little Saving Private Ryan with him(since he was in the Army & Army Reserve its a powerful film for him), and then I worked out with Xbox Fitness.

 

So it was a good reason to *expletive* off. :P

 

Well, just letting you know, it was an invitation because you're a funny dude with long hair and is the closest thing to Khal Drogo we have in the BSN :D

About if Gintama wraps up nicely or not! BAKA!

 

Just cos we're discussing this don't mean we can't enjoy our beautiful Gintama!

 

You mean as some climactic, great ending arc?

Gintama did have some arc, but honestly, it's episodic as heck. So kinda.... nyyyyyyeh.

Nah, I meant if it wrapped up nicely as a whole. Like I won't be compelled to read the manga afterwards because it ends with Shinpachi's balls hanging off a cliff.

Ah well, got like 135 episodes of laughs to go before I can cry my eyeballs out that I won't get to see Gin-san, Hijikata and Kondo in the same room again.

Aw, it's not fun when you guys spoil the whole scene. You're supposed to watch it completely unprepared for that level of wtf and be scarred for life by it.

Don't worry, Reinhard won't do a 180, he'll develop from this sure, but this anime doesn't pull crap like cartoon villains.
