The animation style irks me a bit because its the kind of style production houses use because they want to save money, if you ever notice when a character is completely devoid of shade, thats what i’m talking about.

That’s just the art style. Look at the facial expressions. That’s big animation $$$ and talent right there.

Re: Queen’s Blade:
I decided to open this up and jump a random point to see what was going on. I saw a bunny girl voiced by the wrathful loli use hands made out of her hair to squeeze jets of acid from her breasts, melting another girl’s sword (and more importantly, clothes). Looks like we might just have a contender for best of 2009 here, if it doesn’t usher in a new era of broadcast censorship laws.

I laughed at K-ON! ep. 1 quite a bit, but I couldn’t help it. Even if it is a known quantity I still enjoyed it. The animation is good enough as you would expect from KyoAni and it focuses on the comedy unlike MUNTO! I’m going to watch it.

K-ON! is good, not great, just good. The animation style irks me a bit because its the kind of style production houses use because they want to save money, if you ever notice when a character is completely devoid of shade, thats what i’m talking about.
But if you don’t even try to attempt to blog about Queen’s Blade, then, well…shame on you, its going to be the biggest train wreck in known history, especially with all that amazing voice talent…man, at some scenes the mouths didn’t even move, it’s going to be epic on an unknown scale.

Obviously people weren’t done with the April Fools’ Day fun.
Just watched the REAL CoalGuy’s translation of ep 1. It was better than I expected. I absolutely loved the Krauser II reference.

K-ON! is exactly what you expect a slice-of-life comedy from KyoAni to be. A known quantity. High production values, standard troupe of archetypes, light and fluffy, but consistently better than average too.

Queen’s Blade is LEGENDARY QUALITY. The number of top-draw voice actresses competing for attention against their own characters’ breasts boggles the mind.

I only got two minutes into it, but not because I thought it was bad. I’m in despair! Another show of three week WS delay has left me in despair! Now to cleanse my hard drive of the horrid PAS taint and play the waiting game…
