So episode 14 and Oooooh noooo Senketsu remains dead and everyone is really depressed about it what a sorry turn of events for the series. Even Satsuki cried. In fact, she decided to call off her invasion project and wallow in her student council room, thus ending the series. Wow, what an amazingly downbeat and despairing ending to an excellent anime.
100/10 best anime of the millennium.
Oh, and Ryuko committed suicide. And Mako caught the black plague.

No. Oh, the ending theme had everyone get up for a song and dance number involving all the most popular internet memes right now, and a special hentai OVA was announced. On top of that, next season they're airing a spinoff to the show called 'sherlock dog' where Mako's dog has to go around in a van solving mysteries with the road runner playing watson. ON TOP OF THAT... I'll confess, I don't have the despair fever that causes me to lie. |

Pro lies; I don't plan on watching more anyway, the fact that there is supposedly a "Kamina" is already a major turn-off from the show and I'm not going to watch another one. -_- |

Read the first line of my first blatantly lying post again. I looked it up; I knew that part was true.  Watch up to episode 14. You shouldn't be so hasty to condemn things that you're personally biased against. This is why you complain that you only ever see anime that repeat the same archetypes and formulas again and again, it's because whenever you step outside your usual comfort zone, this happens to you. If there's something in a series that you dislike but the rest sits well enough with you, then the series is merely 'flawed' not outright broken and deplorable. On top of that, I notice that your initial reactions based on incomplete information are almost never what your final reaction ends up being. |

While you are right, if there is something I hate enough that it can ruin an entire series for me (killing off the best character) it's not something that will change. In the end, at some point I will probably end up watching this anime anyway. Eventually. Will I like it? I don't know. I do know I'll probably like the first 12 episodes. After that, I'm not sure. It depends on how much I like Senketsu. I do know that right now I'm busy watching other things, and KLK is on the backseat right now. |

Probably for the best, anyway, as being a major fan of a currently airing show can be murder. This is why Claxus has the most intelligent viewing schedule. But alas... |

Pro tip- Watch Kill La Kill with a friend so that you can watch each other react to this show's insaaaaaane plot twists.
It's been a very, very, very,VERY long time since I've actually disliked the main villain of a work of media- Unless she isn't, which is totally possible... and disliked in a good way, not in a 'this is a horribly written villain' kind of way but in a 'this person's an idiot!' kind of way.

Sure it can, someone will make it. EDIT: Yeah try playing this alongside the video you just posted, it isn't anywhere close to perfect since obviously the animation wasn't edited to match the music, but its serviceable. Especially towards the end. Regal you shouldn't link directly to the episode, a disgusting (HA! Bias is fun) number of people on this site haven't caught up yet. So yeah, oh, no, episode 18 was so bad, boring, and predictable. Boo Kill La Kill boo! (I need a time mage who can make it thursday already.) |

Lol no. Jam Project makes anything awesome but Kill la Kill lacks indomitable mechanical hot-blooded fighting spirit. In other words, it lacks the very essence of Jam Project... Which is a service to mecha anime. *Manly singing as characters go through fashion-changing cycles and skimpy girls doing generic sword slashy stuff at the end*
... Lol no.
Well, to me, they dug their own grave in trying to hype and sell it as Gurren Lagann Mk.II while it's actually a lot of fanservice with Cartoon Network animation. I might have given it more of a chance if it hadn't tried so much to use Gurren Lagann to its own advantage... But oh well. I did give it a try and it just doesn't cut it for me.

Kill La Kill isn't fanservice, if it is then it's miserably terrible fanservice. Go watch Seikon No Qwasar or Highschool DxD to see shameless fanservice. What's the difference between hotblooded mech fights and hotblooded fights between people? What maters is the hot blood, not the combatants. (And Kill La Kill has a lot of hot blood)I can't say if Kill La Kill has surpassed Gurren Lagann yet, but the plot twists are as many (Maybe even more than Gurren Lagann at this point) and the action is just as good, and infinitely more creative. Threw that opening (By the way, Generic? They paint the title with their own blood!) one out there because on a whim, but I looked for other scenes until I found this one to make as a suggestion... Until I realised that I actually preferred the insert song here to the Jam project one. You're very narrow minded, Claxus. I thought you loved generic stuff anyway. In any case, mechs:    |

I believe he can, he does like Steins;Gate after all and some others, and it's not like his favourite stuff is bad or lacking in story. I think the main problem is just the outfits in his case, which causes his nitpicks to grow out of proportion. Because having skimpily clad females in a show instantly makes it pandering and despicable, apparently. (I learned that lesson the hard way when I had that line of thought) Kill La Kill is shot in such a way, with animation rough around the characters that isn't as shiny or attractive as most anime, that it makes it impossible to, erm, 'appreciate' the female body before it cuts elsewhere. The costume design for the Kamui themselves aren't actually as skimpy as you might think either, if you take a look at them, they're designed so that the focal points draw to the stomach or shoulder blades rather than the breasts or buttocks, which are much less pronounced. Even if it was pandering fanservice like Highschool DxD, Kill La Kill happens to be the best kind of fanservice- equal fanservice. The male body is often nude in this show, though admittedly since their character designs don't have skimpy designs, this is less pronounced. |

Yeah, guess you two are right. I could continue discussing my opinion, but I'll ignore the fact that less than half of the animes I've seen are mecha, and have watched nearly everything Al has suggested for me to and liked them (and currently watching another of those suggestions), and I'll just sit here and think narrow-minded, generic, unappreciative thoughts all day.
Case closed, as closed as my mind.

Watch up to episode 14.
