Wait, I'm confused. The other Arata (not Hinohara) isn't old or dead. Did the anime do something that wasn't in the manga?

Here's the list of currently airing anime I'm watching:

Chihayafuru 2
Technically a high school sports anime (they play karuta, have competitions, practice, etc.), but the characters are all so vivid and interact with each other really well. And Japanese poetry is so pretty! Actually, the entire show is really pretty, all done up in bright hues and amazing animation.

Dansai Bunri no Crime Edge
Starting out, I wasn't so sure about this one. It's about a guy who's...obsessed with cutting people's hair? Then he meets a girl who's cursed hair can't be cut? What kind of absurd/stupid comedy is this going to turn into? Except, of course, it's not a comedy at all, it's more of a mystery/horror. While it takes awhile to get over the initial premises, the latest episode, ep 8, was genuinely really good, and I'm disappointed that there'll only be 13 episodes and I'm not sure it'll be able to wrap anything up in the five episodes it has left.

Hataraku Maou-sama!
What happens when Satan arrives on Earth without any magical powers? He works at McDonalds of course! XD Not only is it great comedy, it also has amazingly poignant moments.

Hunter x Hunter (2011)
So exciting to be watching new material! Surprised at how much darker it keeps getting, and it seems like it's only going to get more depressing. I can't wait to watch more!

Kakumeiki Valvrave
This one is decent. Somewhat cliche mecha.

Karneval
The worst show of this season (out of the ones I'm watching). Super poor pacing, terrible character development. It has a couple nice action sequences, but it's mostly irritating and all over the place.

Shingeki no Kyojin
Such amazing insanity. It's like a war documentary, mythology, and personal narratives all rolled into one. And despite the setting, such realism! I expected it to be over the top in a ridiculous way, but it never hit that point. Instead, everything has moved along really fast and fit together really well.

Suisei no Gargantia
It's such an interesting cultural clash. I wish Valvrave had more of this. From continual language difficulties to strife between different ideologies, it's just so cool from a sociology point of view. While the "slice of life" stuff is the best part, it does also have an intriguing world mythology to it too.

There was another old man encountered and it was noted that he came from the other world. However, I don't remember who he switched with right now. I think he'd been there a while, before the story takes place.

As of now I'm watching HxH 2011 (best show, probably), Shingeki no Kyojin, Miyakawa-ke no kuufuku (how come no one named this?), Dansai Bunri no Crime Edge, Ginga Kikoutai Majestic Prince (worst one, I'm still watching it only because I hate dropping animes) and Photo Kano (nice ecchi, but I don't like how they're doing arcs for each girl). Would you suggest me Suisei no Gargantia?

BTW, yesterday I started reading Another (I didn't know whether to watch the anime or read the manga, in the end I decided to read the manga) and today, at school, a friend of mine came with an eye patch on its eye. Laughed sooooo much.

Not me Drake. That's a bit beyond me, whatever it is.

But hey! A little help is needed. I was linked to this bouncy song and I want to know where it's from. I think it's an anime based on the thumbnail but I can't be sure. Does anyone recognize it?

I'm going to keep listening anyway.

That's Touhou, a vertical shooter . Search Touhou, you'll see mostly impossible levels with about the 99% of the field covered with missiles. If you do, that's touhou.
And if you're interested in this kind of songs, there are a whole lot of them. A-One do lots of remixes of those sung in English, like "don't break me down". If you want to listen to other original ones, you might be interested in "U.N. Owen was here?", Flandre's Scarlet theme, or you could listen to stuff like "Cirno's perfect math class" or "Marisa stole the precious thing". I think you might like the original ones better, though, since they're just perfect for grinding (yeah, lol), and are lot more serious.

The first anime I ever got hooked on was Dragon Ball Z. Years later I would stumble onto DBZ Kai and have a "meh" view on it. Then I went back and watched the original and realized something. Kai has way more action. In the original, characters would usually scream at each for 3 episodes and then throw a few punches.

Since then I've acquired a taste for action and shonen anime, as well as a few others.

Darker Than Black
Tenjou Tenge
Naruto
Bleach
One Piece
DBZ
Kekkaishi
Death Note

and my all time favorite; Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood

I have a bad habit of skipping story stuff in a few of the less interesting one to get to the fights.

Yeah, really, you shouldn't skip 'em. I know a person that is totally repellent to Shonens and watches only Seinens, you are basically his antithesis.

BTW, you could watch Black Lagoon, I really liked that one, even though I'm not into this kind of animes. It's a Seinen, but action-based, you might like it.
