NGE's Fly Me To The Moon is performed by Claire, which imho is so much better than Frank Sinatra's. I'm not a big fan of Frank Sinatra actually.

How come they never use non-Japanese music in anime? There's lots of good tunes out there..

Good tunes outside of Japan, but who's to say them Japanese folks will dig it?

As mentioned, Ergo Proxy uses both western songs for the OP and ED, NGE uses Fly Me To The Moon, Jojo uses Walk like an Egyptian and Roundabout, and then there's Afro Samurai's stuff.

Also, you don't need to watch Inou Battle to see the following. It's a snippet of episode 7. Amazing performance by whoever did the voice acting. Please check out this 2:42 long video: http://a.pomf.se/ieeciu.webm

My initial impression is that it outdoes Kana Hanazawa's performance on Sengoku Nadeko's rant in Monogatari Second Season.





But yeah, let that soak in. If you're ready for a trollsub satire on western otakus, you can watch it here (language warning): http://a.pomf.se/qyxrtf.webm

Watching this show I really didn't expect to see something like this. Truly amazing. Hats off to them.

I wasn't doing anything special last night and I probably will just be playing CS:GO the whole weekend. Oh well.
 
It's because you're not watching Psycho Pass 2 with me.

I guess not. I figured you guys were too busy playing Hatsune Miku Project Diva F 2nd or watching other things.
 
Looks fun:

That actually does look cool.
Wonder what it will be on, probably PS4 if nothing else. Very cool though, I'm going to have an eye out for it definitely. 👍

Too busy going to work at the time of your post.
 
Today I've finally finished watching Kill la Kill. I've watched all 24 episodes except the OVA. It. Was. AMAZING.
 
I still need to watch the OVA...and more of JoJo.

Same here. I really don't have time to do that. Thanksgiving break is a whole week long and I'm planning to learn how to roller blade.
 
Does the M stand for Metroid, and imply Zero Suits? :drool:

"Melee", boob boy. If you are able to get your hands on it, you should give Project M a whirl.

I need to start watching JoJo.
 
You should. Only 2 people here get it when I make "ore ore ore ore ore" jokes.


A disappointing number. :p
