its not a matter of who is the best, but who are so shit that you should never watch them.
for example, i would spend a couple years learning japanese so i could watch without subs before i would watch anything that was subbed by hadena or commie.
with everyone else you're getting at least a "good enough" job done for free and often it is done with impressive efficiency as well.

as for a favorite, i'd choose these folks
http://www.hokutonogun.com/
because they seek out good older shows that never got a treatment and sub those rather than piling on to whatever the latest kyoani shit is.

Commie / GG.

I kid I kid, no seriously fuck Commie and GG for making my life miserable when I find an anime I love on Nyaa and the only avaliable translations are from commie and ggsubs who're known widly for translating internet memes using broken english

Examples including but not limited to
>re' ye havn a' giggle m8
>Best go before I smack ya one in tha cunt m8
>saged. reported.hidden.called the cops.
>do not want
>im only 12 and what is this
I'm looking at you, steins;gate

The best freelance groups will usually banhammer you on their forums if you complain about accuracy of subs, so don't bother.
It's like getting free ice cream, and being told to be grateful for free stuff when there are cat turds sprinkled ontop of the ice-cream.

commie really is utter shit
they created an effective monopoly on torrent distribution with nyaa (commie owns nyaa in case you didn't know) and now commie will ban competitive sub groups from being listed on nyaa or will threaten to ban other groups from being listed if they do certain shows that commie doesn't want them to do.
doki, one of the larger groups, is currently on a sitewide nyaa ban because commie didn't like the fact the doki was putting out the same show commie was working on, but doki was faster and better.
as a result a lot of people never see any of doki's releases (doki is still listed on TT)

Okay Yuyufans, get to Commie Subs.....nao!

They've got alternate OP & EDs, as well as a BD special.

I'm not "shilling" for Commie, but just happened to see this posting and torrented immediately I don't think there are any DDLs available, but for "completists" like yours truly, I'm glad I got it.

Pic definitely related.

Anyone else take note of the Yuri, but charmingly so aspects of latest ep? Since it pretty much kicked off with Yukari, oh-why the heck not?

Noticeable by absence-the "other 3". Yanked my chain, dammit. But that's offset by a "bit" that I think will go overlooked. Where Yuzu comes in, blows the line, does a "......take two"" move. Kind of like an out-take within a show. Dunno if there's a "trope" for that or not. That, and the "popping" opening bit is so well done.

What hit me upside the head this week was actually Aiura. The little show that does. Heckyeah, "Crabby Crabby, ad infinitum:"!.. I'm halfway expecting something to happen in Henneko, but that won't be available until tomorrow, and Oreimo S2 has it's own thread.

I just got the Soundtrack and it sounds better than I thought for Yuyushiki. Took less looking than I thought to find it. Makes me wonder if anyone else on /a/ listens to actual soundtracks, not just op/eds.

That's okay, we'll forgive you for your trangression of going to that other place. Just say a few "Hail Haruhis" and repent your sins.

Anyway, there are so many possibilities about the endings, I don't see it wrapping up anytime soon-even if S2 is.....inconclusive.

I just watched episode 11. it makes no sense. he was kicked out of his home. watch it and you'll see what i mean. my mind is full of fuck. i think i should stick myself to the "Zero no Tsukaima" easy type anime

>>33550

The being kicked out of the house thing.
The until I get my feelings for Kirino worked out thing.
Manami making a re-appearance.
Pretty much nothing much from Saori since the flashback ep.

And Kuroneko coming back .....with her apparently unfinished book.

This is too popular, with too many possibilities to get it all wrapped up right now. Though I believe we can remove Kanako from the possibilities list. As if she ever belonged there. Probably the series least needed character.

No picture worth grabbing of her.

Anyways, as far as getting kicked out. There's such a difference in the looks of the siblings. One of them, and I suspect it's Kirino, may not be "blood". I don't think it's mentioned anywhere (if so, I missed it) and since Kirino is: 1) a minor; 2) the "golden child" of the two; 3) Dad and Mom both got strict on this; 4) Gotta keep 'em separated.

It didn't....well, no in the sense that it didn't really explain kites "how can I die like this" ability.
Remember, even if the person has a strong will before they're eaten, they do not retain ALL of their memories.
Kite immediately knew gon, and ging, so it's obvious he has memories of the past and present. But Doctor Blythe being used to put kite together again after feeding the queen his brain aside, the question remains, how exactly was kite born?
Like in fine detail how did he go from being decapitated, to being developed inside the stomach of the queen ant, to being born, and the aging quickly enough to be around the same age as gon?

>Plothole
When the chimera ant noticed the extra fetus inside the queen ants stomach, pulled it out, and begged the team that was there to save the queen to nurture and protect the fetus, It was infact a fetus, so did it age at the same pace that prospective chimera ants do while they're inside their cocoon sacks?, If so, how is that possible? The fetus was born outside the queen ants womb, so how did it receive any nutrients from the queen at that point? It aged much much too quickly for it to really make any sense.

>>33548
Well first of all, the quick development is natural, since all the other Chimera ants developed rapidly (albeit inside the queen's eggs). Kaito was born as King Meryem's twin, but as you can see in the manga, kaito was like a premature fetus kind of thing, which may explain why he isn't a full grown woman yet (not to mention the fact that the queen was mortally wounded at the time and so couldn't supply nutrients to the developing Kaito.)

The rapid development is simply part of the genetics of Chimera ants. In ecology, you have R-strategists and K-strategists. Chimera ants (and insects in general) are R-strategists, maturing rapidly (not necessarily in the egg), which combined with the fact that Kaito was "malnutritioned"by the dying queen, might explain why Kaito developed rapidly, but not at the rate of a normal Chimera ant/stagnated in development after a certain point.

As to how he ended up in the queen's stomach is a mystery, and I would hazard a crazy guess at something like his "How can I die like this" ability lets him transfer his soul/memories by nen to a nearby body or something...of course, this ability probably randomizes what body he enters, which would explain why Kaito is the only gender swapped Chimera Ant we've seen; his nen went to a body that was originally supposed to hold the memories of a female consumed by the queen.

>lets him transfer his soul/memories by nen to a nearby body or something...of course, this ability probably randomizes what body he enters,

Ah, now that makes sense! It fits with the properties of Nen that there has to be a very strong restriction to have an ability that powerful (I can transfer my soul, but I don't get to choose where I end up... it may be a nearby human, or an animal, or even a bug) and it also fits right along with Crazy Slots randomly choosing his weapon for him.

Or if you want to be even darker (ignoring Panda's thoughts on the matter), there are no such things as souls in the HxH universe. When a CA consumes a creature, the exact quantum structure of their brain at the moment of death is somehow preserved and then reconstructed when a new CA is born, in whole or in part. So they aren't the exact same PERSON, just a mind-clone of sorts.

So that CA isn't Kaito. It just was born with a brain that is a copy of Kaito's at the moment when he died. Functionally, there would be no difference, but still.

(Also, it makes sense that she would still have Kaito's nen. I can't be the only one who would be absolutely delighted at a Badass Loli going around with that gigantic scythe or gun in the Outside World, beating up on stuff.)

>This is the kinda shit i'm talking about when I wonder whether or not to reconsider accelerators gender

No doubt accelerator is a man

I read the forums explaining that shit a while ago, thanks for the ban faggot mod.
For your information, that shit hasn't worked for me for a LONG time.

I know how to link to posts, the issue is deletion, and ID's.

Not driven away, just bad at keeping up. I personally enjoyed the fight sequence, though I wasn't totally blown away by some of the characters. It wouldn't hurt to tone down the cutesy moe shit once in a while, although Misaka's own performance goes a long way to counteracting that. That said.... was a fan of the super-overuse of 'super,' that character was pretty dope.

Iggy (why do I think of Herculoids when I see that name?), from what I understand, this will definitely be a 24 ep season. So there's plenty more to come, don't worry.
A Next Season request already? Dang, we haven't made it halfway on this one, but considering the popularity of this franchise, I think there'll be plenty to come.
-maybe it'll light a fire under some asses at KyoAni-

Now as I understand, there was a Railgun Movie a few months ago. but I'll be darned if I've been able to come up with it on the 'net.

For some reason, I just don't see Takitsubo as "cutesy", but maybe that's just me. I can dig her swimming style though.
Plus, unless you don't want a serious spoiler alert and you're a Frenda fan....if you don't know now.........ah, but I've said too much as it is.

Now to see if I have any unused screencaps left, dagnabit.

I have to admit that the fight sequences were getting a bit boring and video gamey by episode 10 so I am ok with a break from it all for now. Exciting, but a bit bogged down at the end there.

>>33496
actually teared up at armin's salute.

>>33520
I've teared up a good few times at this show actually, not something I expected. I think Mikasa being so stoic for the others means when she does finally break a little it all comes gushing out.

putting myself in that mindset made it difficult not to salute with him.

>>33524
it would be hardcore both the breakdown itself and the situation causing it.

Really Stand Alone Complex is probably far too complex for your kid if they're of the age that you're worried about them seeing nudity. I'd second the Time of Eve rec, and also maybe think about vetting some of the stand alone episodes of GitS before you watch them with you kid, cause I'm sure there are a few that might be ok.

The recent Metropolis movie is well worth a look though and definitely kid friendly.

Aside for the very first scene in the original Ghost in the Shell in which major kusanagi is being remade due to her body being destroyed after she assassinated the leader of the resistance group in the building by swinging down in front of the window, and then falling from 200 stories to the pavement below, that is the only nudity in the entire series aside from the final battle against the tank in which she takes her clothes off so that her optic camo works better in the rain, that, and in Innocence, in which the dolls are usually undressed, but there is no distinct gender referencing with the dolls, they're just robotic parts, Best bet is to watch Ghost in the shell Solid State Society and Ghost in the shell 2ND G.I.G.
The first movie, like I said, DOES have nudity in it. The second one, has almost none save for the dolls, but the second movie has quite a bit of nasty gore in it.

>>333334
I'm going to third Time of Eve over GitS. Aquatic Language is also a nice 10min stand alone. Both are safe for your kid though some of the deeper issues might fly over your kids head but (s)he'll be entrained regardless.
