MM, Amagami SS, Panty& Stocking with Garterbelt, Ore no Imouto ga Konnani Kawai, Soredemo Machi wa Mawatteiru

I would like to hear some opinions on these anime. Thanks

With your feelings on tsundere I can absolutely guarantee you'd be one of the people who fuuuuuuuuucking haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaates Kirino so OreImo would be a monumental waste of time for you.

I am not watching P&S but it's supposed to be pretty crude and thus up your alley.

MM! is a lot more interesting than the first episode led me to believe it would be. The masochist scenes never became all that funny but they sure toned them down from episode one, with a few exceptions. It's a pretty funny show and Arashiko and Mio are hot, and I love the ED. But that's all it really is, "pretty good". A worthwhile way to spend time but nothing amazing.

I'm behind on Amagami (only seen through Ai's arc) but it was the right kind of story to attempt an omnibus "4 eps then reset for a new heroine" format. I find that my enjoyment of an arc is directly related to how pathetic the protagonist is, and that varies. He's pretty terrible in the first arc, but much better in the second. I'd have to rate them Kaoru > Sae > Ai > Haruka. I'm looking forward to Rihoko's, which I'll watch eventually. It's a very very very silly and stupid show but largely uses that to its advantage to turn it into a charm. And no there's no sex or nudity and won't even be on the BDs as far as I can tell so don't get your hopes up.

Would that mean pianocello would also not like MM! too much since Mio is tsundere (granted I don't know how much he dislikes tsundere). Or would the other characters and the fact that Mio's other tendencies are enough to outweigh her tsundere-ness?

MM! is much less serious in tone than OreImo (not that OreImo is all that serious either) and her and the lead actually enjoys her "tsun" (more like sadism) so it might not annoy him as much. Mio is also a bit less one-dimensional than Kirino appears to be to someone who is going to be predisposed to dislike her. Given how strong and consistent Kirino's tsuntsun is, Piano would have OreImo on his "worst of 2010" list without a doubt.

Sekirei's Tsukiumi is a tsundere done right. Zero no Tsukaima's Louise is a tsundere done terribly wrong.

Average but watchable, average but watchable, dropped after 4-ish eps, outstanding with one or two issues that are probably easier to overlook if you haven't read the novels, outstanding.

I've only seen Panty and Stocking from that list, and it has very crude comedic material, but it really is off-the walls awesome. Definitely worth checking out.

In regards to this last one (Soredemo), if the name "Omigawa Chiaki" means anything to you, you may want to keep in mind you'll be hearing a lot of her.

If you don't recognize the name, or do and don't go screaming in horror, then you should be fine.

As long as, we're on the subject. One thing that makes me glad I've stuck with the series is a girl known as Kon Futaba. With the exception of maybe Hotori, I consider her to be the best character in the series.

Heck, there are times I consider to be much better. That and for a seiyuu with only one role listed at MAL (Take a wild guess which one), I like the way Yazawa Rieka has been playing her.

So far I find the main issue with the series may be stuff like the following. The scary face one, the fact that Eri hasn't gotten enough screen time, and the fact there can never be enough Futaba.

Still, I'll leave people with the following. Episode 8! Yeah, some of you know what that means. Those that don't aren't worthy! What? *Goes to watch it again*

[ilmaestro]

Oh yeah, I should probably have pointed out that I do tend to love Omigawa characters.
