Ao no Exorcist had a pretty good start, but then diverged into anime original. It's still decent, but I say read the manga after marathoning the anime.

yeah, I liked the start of AoEx, but at this point I'm pretty much watching it because I don't tend to drop a series once I've started.

I was thinking of watching Season 2 of Haruhi, but if I did I'd force myself to watch Endless Eight, and from what I hear about that it's worse than death itself.

It's not bad per se... Just ungodly boring.

its worth it because the movie totally makes up for endless 8.

Endless 8's ending makes up for endless 8. I died laughing at that. (the heroic music!)

it's not that bad because you get to hear the soundtrack music over and over again (Kouchou Kouchou)

everyone go watch ano hana, now

[arielrachel0527]

Awesome.  That'll be my next show to watch when I get some time (I actually just recently downloaded like all of Haruhi, so I might actually rewatch some of that in chronological order)

@CoolKid3: Agreed.

Yay for Haruhi, it was so good watching it in chronological order. I still need to watch Disappearance though.

WATCH EEET!

yeah seriously, I'd feel gyped if I didn't watch disappearance after season 2

I know!! But there's just been so little time with me being the first year in college and living in New York City where there's so much fun stuff to do that doesn't involved partying or drinking.

was that sarcasm..?

College freshman memes are hilarious ^^

No sorry.  It wasn't a sarcasm. I really don't do that type of stuff.

Anyway, I saw many posts mentioning Ao no Exorcist, and I'm wondering if the show is better after episode 3.  I got to episode 3 and that episode with that girl was so boring that I couldn't continue watching it anymore.  So if it's really good past that, I'll pick up the series again.  Also, anyone watched Bakemonogatari in the past? Is it good?

Hm... haven't watched Ao no Exorcist.

Second series of Haruhi though... did not live up to the first one. I've been following Bakuman, but the anime sort of gets the best of it, the manga drags a little in places, but it is sort of informative on the manga industry.

Currently, I'm sort of halfway watching Kami-sama no Memo-chou. I like what I've seen of it. It's got a bit of a mystery thing going on, sort of a bit like a modern Gosick.

Oh yeah I hear that Kami-sama no Memo-chou is actually really good, especially if you liked Welcome to the NHK.  It's about a hikkimori detective right?

second season of Haruhi definitely is worse than the first season, but the movie makes up for it.

Kamisama no memochou is pretty good, skip the renji arc though

sorry man, I would of told you earlier, but I actually only found out recently from my friend + I don't get to see u as much as I did before

[angelranchan]

wait!! RUROUNI KENSHIN TOO!~~!!!

Kenshin is so handsome..Kaoru is like Ran...OMG!! I remember DC chara in all animes!!

[Belmondo]

Kami-sama no Memo-chou labels itself as being about the hikimori (NEET) detective agency, but they're not really shut-ins, just unemployed delinquents. Well, except for the main girl. It's worth looking at,  IMO.

I almost forgot about Kenshin, it's been so long. It was a lot of fun, but went on for quite a while with a lot of AO filler episodes that really kind of sucked. Which was it, I think the 'Kyoto story arc' was really good. It's been years since I watched it, though. All I watch nowadays on a regular basis is Conan.

aw not shut-in like Satou from NHK? that takes away a chunk of my interest, but still, sounds like an interesting show

Rank from 1st to 3rd: FT x KHR x Gintama

I haven't watched any of those 3. Hope you can provide also other inputs in terms of plot, character and their development, etc.
