You know, I think my problem with CCS and SM is that now that I'm older, I grow weary of monster of the week anime. I like the characters and what I recall of the stories enough to get behind them, but there's too much filler for me to sit through. Even with something like DBZ, a lot of the filler actually did contribute to the story, even if you could cut most of it out.
Basically. I've never really been a fan of the monster of the week formula, though if the story is good enough in canon material it can keep my interest.

It's kinda why I wish the SM anime wasn't in legal limbo, because honestly a Kai situation would really help the series out.

Yay for CCS! :) I agree it's dreadfully slow as a local bus, but it's really cute for a kids show. The manga series goes much quicker and has some interesting twists.

The slow magical girl development and multiple series holds me back from getting into SM and Pretty Cure. So many episodes, so little time.

Why not just watch something that you at least don't already know will suck going into it?

Where would the fun be in that?

Enjoying a good series that's well written, I suppose. :>

On episode three.

Frankly compared to the last 7 weeks of Gundam Seed Destiny this is a refreshing kind of terrible.

Episode 4 now... I'm not sure if this supposed to be some sort of parody of old 16-bit rpgs or is just incredibly uncreative.

........on the plus side, I'm rewatching Black Lagoon for the first time in a while.

Wow, they've really dedicated 2 episodes to the kids learning how to cook.

I'm pretttty sure the Nelvana dub cut these eps out. I sure hope so. Even Inuyasha would've been ashamed of filler like this.
Life is not about the second chances. It's about a little mouse and his voyage to an exciting new land. That, my friend, is what life is.

Sir, do you have any Warrants?
