What app is that?

iMal on iOS. (Tied to the "my anime list" website, where you can set up a free account to track all your shows) Don't know which platform you use. TeeVee also tracks many animes - and it has the bonus of giving you when it aired, or will air, but it's catalog isn't as vast. I tend to use teevee just for regular tv shows.

What kind of black magic did you use to have wifi with airplane mode on? O_o
2
Toggle airplane mode on, THEN tap the wifi icon on to turn on wifi only.
This way, you're not burning battery power searching for cell networks, if you only need wifi. ;)
2
Wow never knew you could do that. Thanks for the tip :)
2
I would like to know as well.

Oh, I see now. Thanks for letting me know:D

Question though, why the reset with the 2014 series?
I've loved this series so far, the character development, the gun, the adventure...the feels! My only worry is catching up to the newest episodes, and having to wait every week for one. No more marathoning! :)
1
Too close to the manga, needed time to distance itself, hence, the reset.

Ahh, thanks! Makes sense.
1
keep in mind that 2014 is from a different studios so things are different.
1
I'm gonna start it today...thanks for that worrying premonition. lol ಠ_ಠ
I hope it's not too different. :(
1
its still fairy tail.
1
I love Fairy Tail a lot but it is definitely not a 10/10. Some of the animation was ehh, some of the story arcs were even more ehh and some of the cliches made the story predictable. With that being said it is at least a 7/10 objectively but I would give it a 9/10
1
I know...I do tend to be pretty lenient when it comes to an anime I love.
You're right about some of the arcs...the key of the starry heaves arc was pretty convoluted and ridiculous. But overall, it got me who so many times, like when Lucy or Natsu gave little speeches of inspiration. (especially Natsu's at the grand magic games - where he and gajeel never gave up even trying to get one point for last place, and that he was doing it for all the other fairy tail members that were not on Tenrou Island, but kept the guild together.) I was like the feeeeeels!
Maybe it's more of a personal scale for me. If I give it a 10, it's either the feels, or amazing action, the canon of the little universe it has...stuff like that.
Although sometimes I hated the pace of the action waiting for Natsu or someone to come back, and kick some ass. lol Drove me nuts.
1
Nah I get you, but I'm just bringing the other perspective hopefully I didn't sound like too much of a snob
2
Nah, no worries at all. This kinda stuff is always subjective. 👍🏻
I think it's also (that particular grade) for the particular fact that I just went through 175 episodes, so I've just experienced all those ups and downs. It's all really fresh in my head. Heck...I pretty much binged the last 12 episodes yesterday into the wee hours of this morning. No way I could stop when I had like only a few eps left. :)
1
I binge watched 175 episodes in like a 3 to 5 day span. How I did it?! Don't know but it was amazing. And trust me when I say this series rejuvenated my love for anime and it brought me back into reddit and being an active member of this community but when I try and see it objectively I see it's short comings but doesn't change the fact I love this series as much as I loved Dragon Ball as a child
2
Also meant to add...other 10's for me are Ghost in the Shell Sac, 2nd Gig Evangelion Black Lagoon Bakemonogatari
I pretty much love any anime I judge from 7 -10
If I gave it a 6, I probably forced myself to watch it. lol
1
My lowest score was probably a 7 or an 8 and that's me just watching shows I enjoy, if I didn't enjoy the first few episodes I don't give it a chance.
1
True. I give it three eps to make me impressed or curious.
Although...I'm still pissed at the ending of Shakugan no Shana. The entire last season just went ridiculous and drove me to insanity. If I knew it was gonna end like that, I wouldn't have started it.
Then there are completely random, and silly animes I'll watch - like Is This A Zombie, which are SUPER RIDICULOUS (magical garment girls?) but, they just make me laugh. If it makes me laugh, I'll like it. Nisekoi is another one like that. Completely ridiculous situation, but the comedic moments and mixups crack me up. :)
1
I m a simple man really, give me an entertaining/interesting premise, decent/good characters and I'll support it.
I remember watching that ladies and butlers anime, that ending was such bullshit, then I find out the light novel ended the same way I fckn raged. Nisekoi, the how I met your mother of the anime generation. Also Chitoge, Tsugami >>>>>
2
I would give it a 7/10 as well, despite how much I enjoy it.
1
Awesome! It's great. Also after you catch up (in about 60/70 episodes I think) you should check out the manga! Approximately 100 chapters from current anime spot to current manga! :)
1
Eeeeexcellent. Should take me about a week or two to get current with 2014. :)
I finished all original 175 eps in just under 2 months...and that was while watching other animes too. haha Addict. points at self
