Attack on Titan it is then.
I'm saving School Days for after the exams. As much as I love romantic dramas, I can't afford being depressed right now. I just got over Ef, I'm tired of spending my nights thinking about existentialism and unfulfilled love. So right now Imma go with some fantasy/mistery/action animes.
Thanks for the recommends!

Alter Memory episode 10, godlike. Grinned like a madman throughout the whole thing, TERUUUUUUUMI.
Episode 11 should've been equally godlike considering the events but apparently the budget became zero or something? Whole episode looks superweird.
Anyway, IDEA ENGINE KIDOU MOTHA****ER.

D-Fragments finally started, w00t! The manga is fricking awesome, you should all read it.
The first episode of the anime was pretty strong too, good things will follow, oh yes.

Sooo... Attack on Titan simply owns. 5/5 without a doubt. It's way too good to be this short though, only 25 episodes?! Someone tell me this is ongoing, or some second season is planned. Onegai?... I should look for the manga...
The only ones I didn't watch yet are those cartoonish ones. But I'll surely do, maybe even tomorrow. The journal special was quite interesting, I had expected some social interaction between human and titans for a while and I see I wasn't disappointed in the end.
Fighting scenes are osum, the scale of the plot - amazing. The characters are good, though I don't find Eren to be top, not even Mikasa, they'd be 3rd and 4th in my book. Jean's definitely my favorite even though he's the foil, followed closely by Levi. Whoever came up with those chars did a great job.
Ok... I think Imma take a break now and "enjoy" my exams. After that it's School Days, unless you guys recommend me something better

@Joonas: Alter Memory is at its absolute best when I see a move being made and I actually call out the move's name just as the character does it.
Like episode 10, see Jin sheathe his sword and prepare himself, Ragna hits the red Armagus shield, OH **** IT'S GONNA HAPPEN.
"Nani?!"
"Kokujin... YUKIKAZE!"
YOU JUST GOT ORDERED RAGGYBOY.

My fight with alter memory is that it was done by a brokeass animation studio. The animation in the series is simply subpar. It annoys me to no end as the fights could really be much, much more epic.

Congratulations, you've picked up one of the best series out there. It's old school in the middle of all this new stuff. And I love it all the more for it.
I'm such a romantic and can't run from it.

You got it all wrong, it's no romance drama.
And no, there's nothing sad about it.

Weeeeellll... so far this seems to me like a turkish telenovela. I'm at chapter 10 and what I think about it is that... how should I put this... I think I should grow up a little more before I can fully appreciate this kind of manga.
The art is... well everything is so perfect that it seems improbable. I feel sick like when you eat too much candy, eye-candy in this case. And maybe some fan service... but naaah, it was waaay to artistic to be like that.
Maybe I'll change my mind after I finish it, or catch up, I don't know if it's ongoing... Please excuse my tastelessness Joonas, but don't loose faith in me!

Ah, you're reading it like that.
You should take it as a chance to go on an adventure to the turn of the 18th-19th century middle asia.
You don't like good art and you're reading comics instead of books?  This seems...inefficient.
And I also realised I lied, it does have a certain sadness to it, not because of the story, but because it's "the last of the mohicans" kind of setting.

Too late now, I can feel it, especially after reading those chapters with Talas... But I can't stop now, I always finish what I start. There's no going around it I guess, Imma be a sorrowful wreck after reading this, I bet.
Edit: About Talas/Tarasu , I had only read 3 chapters about her and the traveler when I wrote those things above, and I thought she was gonna face life alone when that english man abandoned her. But the story had yet to unfold... I really hope this has a happy ending Joonas!!
And about the art, it's definitely very good. But that's the problem, it's to good to be true
And I don't like books, but I like reading, sounds kinda awkward eh?

Sooo, I'm at chapter 27 in Otoyomegatari and I can't say things changed that much. The whole plot is focused on romantism and turkish history/culture. It is enjoyable, I liked it so far. It makes me think that people used to be something else. They used to be actual humans. Great emphasis on family relationship, great tradition and patriotism and of course the food, gotta love that (I actually know what Pilaf is and what it tastes like )
Watching School Days now... Can someone recommend me another anime like Shingeki no Kyojin for after? Really intense series, watched it 2 times already and planning on watching it again with my bro. The manga's epic too. Has a bit of that LotR feeling, or maybe it's just me...
(sorry for double-post, you ppl ought to post more)

I don't know if you've watched Fate/Zero, but it's excellent.

I did. Stay Night, Zero and Prototype. To be honest I just wanted to find out which anime is Saber from at the time. The episodes were nice but kinda gross at a point (the grail thing, body infesting worms, zombies and such), so not looking for something quite like that
And I don't get why you wouldn't recommend School Days to wee lil kids Joonas, cuz so far to me it looks to be the targeted public of this anime. Seriously now, it's enjoyable... before I say anything else let me watch the whole thing and talk about it later.
Edit: Scratch that above, the anime was great. It captured how life is entirely, and how our decisions and carelessness affect it. It made me sad... yes, it did, but I wouldn't change anything. Such cruel things happen between humans, such hopeless idiots we are. That guy made me sick, he was a complete baka! He ruined the lifes of so many people, so many girls suffered because of him. But they brought it onto themselves, you could say... AAhhh, such foolishness, such idiotic people... and yet so true to reality. That's what's the saddest thing about this anime, the world is exactly that crazy. All of us pursuing our own happiness, our own well-being, neglecting or even trampling over someone else's 
God dammit Joonas, I admit I... misjudged you, please forgive me. Great anime, sad but truthful ending, makes you think about things, about life... Arigatou
Also, I still think that Sekai was pregnant, yet Katsura "saw" otherwise, but I don't know how reliable her words are, considering her mental state and all. What do you think?
