Installed CCCP, fixed problem but the subtitle are gone. Re-installs MPC, I'm running fine.

Also, Hyouka is a Slice-Life while I'm not an expert on the genre I've found that it's not exactly the most exciting. And my guess is, that's not the point.

Hyou-ka can be described with one word. Meh.

Trying to combine a slice of life with mysteries is OK, but clearly, it's not working.

I'll still watch it in the hopes of it getting better, but who knows, really.

Okay apparently I see something you guys don't. Or maybe it had been longer then I thought since I last saw an anime. I still like the series though.

I'm gonna go with you on this ace. Of course, I'm a long standing fan of the slice of life genre, even the slowest paced shows like Hidamari Sketch just fills me with delight. Hyou-ka isn't bad at all. I disagree with Brando in that it's forced intelligence. I think MC does a fair job at doing what he does. What Hyou-ka gives is a different perspective of what a mystery can be. There doesn't have to be murder or a million dollar case or anything. It runs simply on the fact that the mood is there and the problems are just as complex as a murder mystery, while maintaining that simple style.

So I started Yumekui Merry, and while the first episode was pretty trippy and hard to judge, I enjoyed most of the characters. I also almost shat bricks when I saw the OP and ED were by IOSYS.

Also, I only just got around to last week's ep of Nyaruko.

So I've been trying to catch up, because as far as I remember, the last time I watched anime was at least a month or two ago.

Finished Medaka Box, pretty disappoint, will start reading the manga later. Unzen has balls. Respect.
Caught up with Kimi to Boku. I like the direction it's headed the last few episodes. S2 is very heartwarming for me. I can actually remember their names.

I also decided that I'd watch Angel Beats, Lagaan, ♥♥♥♥, and try FMA on my sister's PS3 because I ♥♥♥♥ can. Don't know when I'll get to it, though.


TWGOK Manga 192: I think Keima has a weiss in him now. I'm interested to see what happens next. Several people now share his secret, and that vision intruiged me. I was expecting the manga to end after Vintage was beat

Keima has a Weiss in him? Wasn't it already established they can only infect female hearts? And also the fact they were all taken care of by the godesses?

I'd say it's more likely it's someone else who's about to be introduced, or maybe Jupiter is a male god, and that was the godess alarm going off.

In which case he has a god inside him.

Oh snap.

If that's the case, I think it still has similar meaning. Someone or something has to awaken the god inside him (spread his "wings", for lack of a better phrase). Either way, something in someone is in trouble.

And sorry, I've forgotten some of the details of weiss over the months.
