Yes, the Light Music Club (pronounced Kei-on-bu, hence K-ON) is a group that formed without a solid msucial foundation. They just fluked out with Yui who magically learned to play the the Guitar.

How you watch it? You put the show on your Television, sit on your sofa and observe the screen with it playing. 💡 :lol: There's seasons 1 and 2, K-ON! and K-ON!! respectively (note the different number of exclamation marks).

Any plans to release a complete? No idea look that up yourself, I'm guessing they won't (if they haven't already), since the show's old now.

Parents ate up that AQROBRA story. I'm in the safe zone now!

Saw a drawing where there were the earlier forms presented that is the sketch, draft and line work. I can most certainly learn from this. Therefore, I'm off to doodle some DFCs.... not for Slybee though. :p

oh oh oh! I think I managed to save that last recording! *cross fingers, pats table*

Not to spend something on so eye candy and big?

How good "K-ON!" is? Is it sad, mixing emotion or happy, funny?

It's not sad at all, just cute with a bit of funny. It's a music-themed slice-of-life show. So if slice-of-life and/or music's your thing, you'll like K-ON! Otherwise it won't really appeal to you.

I don't particularly care for slice-of-life but I enjoyed K-ON! thanks to the music theme, even though the songs were substanceless pop garbage. :lol:

That tray's quite useful if Shinji gets too close...

I was thinking, when Misato shows up for school in Episode 26, she's driving a red car. What is that car? I'm betting 5 Zimbabwean dollars that it's an AW11 MR-2.

For me, it was none of these things. I read the first few volumes of the manga when it came out, being enticed by a guitar-wielding cute girl. It was pretty much just slice of life with a musical-themed flavour, a standard cute and humorous four panel. I guess I'd recommend it, as the jokes are quick, the art was nice, and I could imagine my own music and stuff, where applicable.

Doesn't this look better than the moeblobs of the anime?

However, the anime severely let me down. Basically, it took what the manga did and draaaaaaaagged it out to fit into the number of episodes. Jokes are made obvious and repeated ad nauseum, characters are made painful and stereotyped, and the infuriatingly small amount of time spent actually on the music (which is kind of what the series is named after) is skimmed over or cringeworthy. I refer you, of course, to their first 'song': "Fluffy Fluffy Time". It is a song about stationery, and love.... or something.

I tried to watch it, I really did. Then I just couldn't take it anymore. I just felt a insulted, both as a musician and as someone with a brain.

JoshB, and anyone else, do yourself a favour and stick with the manga. Yaywalter summed up the show for me pretty well here:

I actually hate manga illustrations that look like that....

I too was hoping for more music, but whatever...

Wasn't Fluffly Fluffly time about Marshmallows and clouds and dreaming and stuff? God, their songs were so corny!


Also, started Toradora!
 
Biggest Tsundere I've seen, ever. :D

^ Oxymoron?

Just found this:

What do you do?

Ah yeah, I was getting that confused with some other song they performed as one of their first, with staplers and pens and stuff...

Ah well, to each their own! For now, I'll stick with BECK, though I've yet to actually buy all the DVD volumes I need. I could buy the complete collection, but the DVD box I have is made to look like an amplifier :dopey:

2012? I can't wait that long! :grumpy:
 
Dude, '12 is almost here.

Okay I'm going to get that BRS Original from HLJ

I'm going to see if I can get them to ship it like 4 days later, because I need time to dish out a TON of drawings before that damn figure arrives.

edjt: Order placed, though I may have screwed up the payment though..guess I'll find out when I return from work!

For a second I thought that was going to be new Evangelion. Then I realized it was just another Rebuild movie.

Gonna finish You are (not) alone now.
 
Well with the way the second movie ended, I have a strong feeling we're gonna see a whole lot more new material.

And I just can't believe how in some Harem shows the male lead is a clueless meathead! I know it's how Harem shows are, but man, it just makes me want to flip a table!
 
I may be there for some of the stream. I'm guessing the power shouldn't go out here until around 4:00am.
 
A href? This forum are not HTML.

Don't mind the laungauge, kiddies.

Also, my name should now be red. Does this please you?
 
Power just went out for about 30 minutes. Don't know when it's going out for good. See you guys on the other side :lol:



EDIT: Congrats Dice on taking the Premo Plunge!
