Temple of Kraden News: Welcome to the Temple of Kraden! ------ All worshipers may enter the Most Holy Place in single file, reflecting on the bountiful blessing Kraden hath provided unto him or herself since their last visit. Head coverings are not necessary, as true penitence and humility are found within. The Priests and Priestesses of Kraden endeavor to remind all that fresh orange juice is heavily preferred; only whores use frozen.

Greetings, heathen. Perhaps some fortuitous blessing of Kraden's grace hath led you to our humble Temple, or perhaps you are simply curious about this strange and wonderful cult. Should you be willing - and dare to hope - to achieve enlightenment, the door opens before you. Lo! Leave your old life behind! For once you step through, you become something more than just yourself.

You become a Kradenette.

Are you willing to make the rapturous plunge? Do you have what it takes?

One of us! One of us! One of us!

Oh god, that's one of those excessively long shows isn't it Miral? That video is top-tier, the facial expressions on Misaka during the fight scenes are so ridiculous. Also, I've been curious about this for a while and have seen mixed answers literally everywhere, anyone know when/if Shaft is actually gonna air Prism Nana? It's got nice artwork, musicians and magic so I'd watch it.

I would have much rather had the series maintain the low-fantasy setting as opposed to going full out with the whole demon thing as it's overdone IMO. The ENTIRE PREMISE of Berserk is that Guts slays demons. How exactly is the demon thing overdone when it's all there is to the series?

Also, if "slaying demons" was all there is to the series, I would definitely consider it overdone.

I've heard everything from "it'll air soon" to "it's never going to be a thing" so it's just been a huge tease and it's killing me. I'll need something more light-hearted after I finish Bokurano anyways so perhaps I'll watch it, but I've been meaning to check out Aria too so I might give that a shot instead. Quote: I stopped reading once it got a bit too "happy adventure time". I just pictured: "Adventure time with Guts the human and Puck the elf/fairy/thing," wait what.

Country: #226# True Name: Miral	I'd recommend watching Aria at a very slow pace, since it's not a show that's meant to be marathoned. I'm not sure if I'd call it particularly light-hearted but it's very relaxing. Aikatsu is like the definition of light-hearted, though. You can't really go wrong with either.

I haven't really been in the mood to marathon any shows recently so a slow pace works with me.

I didn't have a sense of urgency or intensity from the recent arcs because no one important seems to be in serious danger anymore. Also Guts is smiling too much.

Spoiler: click to toggle Griffith just made his return, so he should start making frequent appearances now. I'm curious to see what he's like as a villain, and it's interesting to see that his goal is still the same, he's just on a different side now.

That's pretty much that episode. Golden Time episode 9 HOLY SHIT SO MUCH SUFFERING WHY SHOW WHY YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO BE HAPPY AND CHEERFUL NOT MAKE ME QUESTION EVERYTHING THAT IS REAL oh my g-g-g-g-g-oooood sobs I looooooved Banri telling Linda that formal love poem. So heian and bittersweet. But then Linda saying it back to Banri about Koko was soooo feels. Man Linda as a character is just like, super strong. Love the analogy between Linda saying she'll have to pretend like she knows nothing between her brother and his fiancee, and how that applies to her pretending she knows nothing about herself and Banri. Because she doesn't want to split them up either. And Linda just leaving after Tada says he didn't know she had a brother. Because that whole memory is just negated. But between that and stuff, that ending is just like fuuuuuuck, ultimate cliffhanger. Also, shit-tier cancer ending that I joked about with Silvy: Banri and Tada become different personalities in the same body, and they enter a polygamous marriage with Koko and Linda. seriously where my golden time peeps at

I know you said it looked like cliche and overdone crap from the first episode; I take it that hasn't changed much?
