Heaven Society - Week 17 Anime Poll

[Charger]

Week 17 is upon us. Its now time to decide which anime the club should watch and discuss this week. The poll will be active for 48hrs-ish.



Noragami
Current

This was suggested by @Vitalius saying "Supernatural, but with interesting characters and mystery backgrounds. Kinda like Bleach, but not like Bleach. I know. I do that alot. The art was good and the climactic fights made the wait worth it as the story progressed."

Yato is a minor deity who lacks even a single shrine. In order to build his own shrine and gain recognition as a god, he scrawls his cell number on the wall of a downtown bathroom telling people he will help them in exchange for a 5-yen offering, becoming a self-styled "delivery god." Hiyori, the daughter of a respectable family, is almost killed in a traffic accident, but is rescued by Yato. This causes her to become a "hanyou," a person who can exit her body in soul form. She chases Yato down, and they begin to work together to help Yato be recognized. Yato also finds a boy named Yukine who becomes a Regalia, a "sacred treasure" that can be used by a god as a weapon to fight. The three of them battle phantoms who bring harm to humans as Yato's dark hidden history is gradually revealed.

Beyond the boundary
Recent

This was suggested by @RainColt saying "This is so beautifully animated, it's cute, it's funny, it has action and romance, love, loss and I love it and think that it is a must watch."

Akihito Kanbara is a high school sophomore in the literature club who believes himself to be a "Meganest", and although he appears to be human, he is actually half Yomu, which makes him invulnerable to wounds, due to the fact that he can heal so quickly, and also immortal. One day, Akihito meets freshman Mirai Kuriyama when it appears as if she is about to attempt suicide by jumping off of the school rooftop. Mirai is isolated because of her ability to manipulate blood, which is considered heresy even among other members of the underworld, so she is shunned. Soon after Akihito saves Mirai, disturbing events begin to arise.

Nichijou
Post-2007

This was suggested by @Legion saying "Why I'm suggesting it. It's a simple anime.
Its not too long.It has some cute and relate able characters with a bit of hijinks.

Not going to be everyones cup of tea. But some people will enjoy it. It employs a simple animation style with nice over the top exaggerations to assist in some jokes and might be a nice second pick for some week."

As well as by @Vitalius saying "An awesome anime comedy that is incredibly silly in a good way.

While the title suggests a story of simple, everyday school life, the contents are more the opposite. The setting is a strange school where you may see the principal wrestle a deer or a robot's arm hide a rollcake. However there are still normal stories, like making a card castle or taking a test you didn't study for.

Beck: Mongolian Chop Squad
Pre-2007

This was suggested by @frustratedrocka saying "Drama, shonen. A really great down-to-earth series about a boy and his band."

 Tanaka Yukio, better known by his nickname Koyuki is a 14 year old who feels disconnected from life in general. Through the act of saving a mismatched dog, he meets guitarist Minami Ryuusuke, and becomes involved in Ryuusuke's new band BECK. Koyuki's life starts to change as the band struggles towards fame.

Angel Beats
Random

This was suggested by @Vitalius saying "Action/Supernatural/Mystery (sorta), I had feels from this anime. It was done a bit quickly, but I think that actually added to my enjoyment rather than took away from it. Can be very dark at times."

Otonashi awakens only to learn he is dead. A rifle-toting girl named Yuri explains that they are in the afterlife, and Otonashi realizes the only thing he can remember about himself is his name. Yuri tells him that she leads the Shinda Sekai Sensen (Afterlife Battlefront) and wages war against a girl named Tenshi. Unable to believe Yuri's claims that Tenshi is evil, Otonashi attempts to speak with her, but the encounter doesn't go as he intended.

Otonashi decides to join the SSS and battle Tenshi, but he finds himself oddly drawn to her. While trying to regain his memories and understand Tenshi, he gradually unravels the mysteries of the afterlife.

[Vitalius]

I have to vote for the one I suggested. lol

But seriously, Angel Beats is great. The music is awesome. The animation is well done in some parts, although strange in others. The story is a bit fast paced, but I think it helps for the M. Nigh Shyamalan level twists. The characters are unique, even for an anime. You'll love some of them and hate others.

It's great.

Noragami was good too, but I prefer Angel Beats.

[DigitalHermit]

Kyoukai no Kanata for glasses goodness...

 

Also, Senpai.

[91wow]

I really loved Angel beats, its one of the saddest animes I have seen. But in all honesty the anime that you guys should watch right now, if you aren't already watching has to be Tokyo Ghoul, it's literally one of the best animes I have ever seen, in terms of VA, graphics, character development, and also plot.

Someone say Senpai? 

[VG Docs]

Hmm, Angel Beats sounds the most interesting to me, by the synopsis. 

Although, Beyond The Boundary looks pretty interesting to me too. 

I'm excited to see which one will be the top vote this week.

I was going to watch Beyond the Boundary since I've seen two of the anime suggested already.

No need to vote. Watch all of them.

So true.

i really reallly didnt like the ending'

[squirrl]

Added Kyoukai no Kanata to my 'to watch' list

Nichijou is awsesome and angel beats isn't bad either. Noragami is so-so. Not terrible, but it didn't really stand out. I do prefer key's other works (Regarding angel beats), but this is one of the ones that wasn't a visual novel first.

(I can't wait for a Rewrite anime )

Not seen Clannad (After story) or AnoHana?

[Biased Opinion]

I don't even watch these things, I just vote.

That still makes you an active participant in my eyes lol

[CatCloud]

Ok i have NOT seen any of this weeks shows...hmmm

[Vitalius]

i really reallly didnt like the ending'

I personally really liked the ending. The twist. The feels. It was great.

To each their own I suppose. Some people don't like endings like that with such little closure.

[Rashy]

I dont know what to choose.

I Guess I'll pass

[ThyFeared]

Noragami was purely AMAZING. I loved every single moment of it.

[ComradeHX]

Kyoukai no Kanata is one of such good-enough anime made by KyoAni...in between some weird shit(tamago market talking fatbird) and FREE.

[Fred Castellum]

Kyoukai no Kanata for glasses goodness...
