Zoth, I had low expectations for SAO II (because of the second half of the first SAO season, and because I expected the guns to be boring as well) but I have been delighted by it so far. I wish Kirito could keep his hands off of Sinon, though. Anyway, I am eagerly anticipating each upcoming episode!

Cubellius, Bakuman is wonderful. I pulled the manga off a shelf in a book store and was quickly engrossed. I never finished the manga, but I've seen all three anime seasons now. The concept seems boring enough, but the show is actually quite full of energy.
