Son of a vondruk! I was hoping for an upset, but I suppose the fact that Heroman made it to the round of 16 is a victory in itself. Engage, suckas.

I won't let this be a clean sweep.
Blessed be the LORD my strength which teacheth my hands to war, and my fingers to fight:
My goodness, and my fortress; my high tower, and my deliverer; my shield, and he in whom I trust; who subdueth my people under me.

Not at all. I liked Bakemonogatari and have seen neither Tatami Galaxy nor Tamayura. Thus I figure that since people have voted Tatami Galaxy over Bakemonogatari, it must be pretty good.

Haven't seen Eva 2.0 but I need <1@DRRR!!> in order to defeat FMA.

By the way, are the vote codes case-sensitive?

I am coming around to Eva, but I haven't seen these movies yet. Since they are a different entity...

<1@DRRR!!> The movies for Eva are neat, but they're coming out so slow that they're losing in the story department for me.

Whatever the season in life, the RIGHT attitude makes all the difference.

"I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth."
Psalm 121:1-2

"Though our paths may have diverged, you must continue to live out your life with all your might; you must never consider your own life to be something insignificant, and you must never forget about the friends whom you loved for as long as you live."
The Third Rule of Fairy Tail

"Mistakes are not shackles that halt one from stepping forward. Rather, they are that which sustain and grow one's heart.
Mavis Vermilion, Fairy Tail

Coincidentally, I was supposed to write about Durarara!! in my twelve anime moments of the year series today. Except that I trashed that post and wrote about something else instead. Because I feel bad for Durarara!! (and also because I want it to beat FMA), I guess I'll vote for it.

I know it's the running joke and all, but have you actually watched it or are you just being snarky? In all seriousness, I didn't enjoy Neon Genesis Evangelion that much (and I think I know why), but I've really liked the first two Rebuild movies so far.
