Title: What Anime are you Currently Watching?
Post by: Satoryu on November 08, 2008, 07:06:08 AM
just reviving the thread a little.

my anime queue has been extremely light as of late. i've only been checking out La Blue Girl just to see what all the hubub was about.

i think i want to find a good rewatch. something like G Gundam or GaoGaiGar.

I'm still kind of forcing myself through Zeta Gundam at the moment. While the series had a very cool start, it has been somewhat declining since they went down to Earth and only recovers little by little from it upon returning back to space. One of the main reasons why I'm still watching it is Jerid Messa. I just like this guy.

I'm not sure yet if I should really continue with ZZ after Zeta as I heard it's not that good. Maybe I'll just skip it and go directly for Char's Counterattack.

Ahhh Jerid.  I like Jerid too.  He's also fun to use in DW: Gundam.

I have yet to watch ZZ Gundam.  I've also heard that it's not that great.  My friend told me it starts off pretty bad then picks up towards the end, but by that time, it's too late.  I'll eventually get around to watching it. 

As for what I'm watching now, still just Casshern: Sins and Gundam 00.  Oh, and Zeta Gundam with my Dad on Ani-Monday.

Hajime no Ippo, certainly good! The boxing matches are well written and drawn, they never bored me. Some of the humor is funny too, especially when Takamaru san is part of it. Each boxer is quite unique as well, each of them having a trademark technique such as the Flicker or the White Fang.

Just watched the first episode of Mobile Suit Gundam MS IGLOO 2 - Gravity of the Battlefront.

The concept is pretty interesting, not to mention that this series predates everything in UC. What sucked however, was that my PC wasn't capable of catching up with the video due to it's 720p nature. And those [gg] bastards no longer release any lower res subs...f*cking assholes...
Title: Re: What Anime are You Currently Watching?

Just finished Zeta Gundam. Uh...so this is honestly supposed to be the best of Universal Century? I think not. It's nowhere near 08th MS Team on that matter. It's better than 0079, 0080 and 0083, but not 08th. I also say it's better than W, but I do not understand why so many people claim Zeta to be the best of all Gundams. Not to mention that Kamille got more annoying the further the series progressed, I pretty much lost sympathy for him just like I did with Shinn Asuka. I'll give it a 7.5 out of 10. Not sure if I should continue with the next Gundam series or with something else. If I were to continue with Gundam, I'm still not sure which I should take. ZZ doesn't seem too interesting (except maybe for more awesome Haman), whereas Char's Counterattack does. I still have to continue on X, yet I also would like to see G.

You amaze me.

For the first dozen or so episodes, when Shinn still had something similiar to character development, before he turned into one-way-only blockhead. Shinn DID have potential for becoming a good character eventually, it's just that Sunrise didn't let him and instead turned him into an emo kiddie who got his ass raped by Athrun and Kira.

LOL, I have about a week without touching the tenth episode of the second season of Amaenaideyo!! Katsu. :P It's partly because I know that once I finish that, the only thing waiting for me is Genshiken, and then I have to get myself to downloading some of the other stuff I want to watch. -_-

At most I kept up with one series throughout the entire year, most of the cases being the latest batches of Saint Seiya OVAs. Yes, they were a glorious piece of crap, you gotta try HARD to end so shitty, but I digress.

Once I heard of Casshern Sins, the live action alone would have sold me to see the original concept. Then they said it was to be directed by Shigeasu Yamauchi, who directed the cream of the crop of SS's revival and was then fired by the series' creator in a stupid hissy fit. Then I watched the first episode and the voice actor for Casshern this time around is Tohru Furuya, the one true Pegasus Seiya... and they made Casshern his spitting image (coincidence?). Down to having Kunio Tsujita as the colorist. If you thought Tsujita was SS's colorist too, you're quite right. Add to it that the classic Saint Seiya series had Takao Koyama at the helm for writing and then see that he worked on the first Casshern series and Jesus Fuck, it's all connected, I can see forever. Behold the blanket.

(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v226/muchalucha/blanket_huckabees.jpg) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qiIQbfwJ8QY)

Either way, it's being an interesting ride so far, with some ups and downs alright, but I'd watch this stuff if only to see Furuya doing the spitting image of the character he immortalized (and viceversa). I liked the fact they gave Dio what seems to be his female doppelganger (doppelganger of a doppelganger but with big round breasts and smooth long hair. What's not to love?). When Yamauchi isn't too caught up on his chaotic direction the action scenes are awesome as well.

But boy was 7 a spectacular borefest. Christ, stop being so god damn formulaic. Some of the formula worked well ("The World is filled with Cries of Death" and "Angel of Ruin") but this one was downright trite and stupid. Next episode isn't looking so bright either. Meanwhile Braiking is yet to make an appearance ever since episode two.

Oh, don't worry, I'm actually gonna praise you for that -- Otome and the Otome subseries are loaded with action, but pack very little actual development. I personally like HiME MUCH better, since it's packed with a shitload of story development in each episode. :)

Finished Futakoi. I am sad that I didn't finish it soon. It was nice, well-paced anime. 8/10 Tear jerky at the end and it nearly lead me to tears. Then I watched the first episode of Futakoi Alternative.

The cute, junior high twins all became tough, ecchied-out twins that fought of monsters and the yakuza...  ???

Just watched the Raw of Hellsing Ultimate V. What a blood feast. Then again, it wasn't as awesome as the previous episodes. But oh well, the animated chapters were more of interlude anyway (despite the fact that it actually starts the attack on London). The real fun should start with VI.

A 4 out of 10 is still far too good for this series. I intially gave it a 2/10, but now that I think about it, it's not even worth that.

I only watched like 4 episodes. Don't beat me down yet. I am a pretty lax rater. My lowest ever are Paranoia Agent with 4/10 (Couldn't even finish it) and Rizelmine with 5/10, but I barely lasted through that. Compared to the He is My Master is not bad.

Or maybe you just take things too seriously. If you watch He Is My Master with an open mind, while not good, it's a decent comedy to waste your time on. But since most of you here have sticks way too far up who knows where, you tend to demonize whatever stuff that doesn't strike your fancy. 8D

Well, I usually approach every anime I watch with an open mind, otherwise I wouldn't watch it. But still, I had serious problems with the series. It's not the ecchi stuff I had issues with (though nowadays I think animes should only have minor ecchi (and not have the entire series wrapped around it) or no ecchi althougher, as nobody likes cock-teases (though I don't recall I ever got any hard-ons from ecchi series). Make it a hentai from the start or simply stop it), but more like the entire story. Although I initially had a few laughs from watching it, the entire comedy and plot seemed to have been repeating itself over and over again in a non-funny way. Mitsuki's "contests" for example weren't funny anymore after one or two times, not to mention that I didn't get the feeling that the story or characters actually went somewhere. There was no real development.

When I was finally done with the series (I think I watched it as a whole in one day), I couldn't find any reason anymore as for why I even wanted to watch this series, it felt so completely pointless. I still want the time I spend on this series back.

Thats what I was thinking. Its a time waster, but for us, I guess, its a good time waster.

And of course my weekly watches of Yu-Gi-Oh!, Casshern Sins, Toradora!, Skip Beat!, Digimon Savers, Pokemon D/P, Bakugan Battle Brawlers, Battle B-Daman Fire Spirits, reruns of Hell Girl, Code Geass Season one, Gundam 00 Season one...

I couldn't go through the whole thing, but does anyone here watch Saint Seiya?

My brother decided that I'm all cool and deserving and gave me an early Christmas gift...

(http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y168/da_dood/cancer_closeup.jpg)

That's Deathmask, the Saint of Cancer in Saint Seiya. Cancer as in the zodiac sign, not the disease, although he's pretty much the only character in the series who's always been pure evil.

You actually have to set the whole thing, one piece at a time, like a complex Lego model. There's even a manual. Most armor pieces are made of metal. Feels pretty heavy in the end.

Yes, Deathmask, guard the Wii!

ever since ADV lost 80% of its catalog, Anime Network hasn't had much to speak of as of late. well last week they put up a few of their older shows that i haven't seen n a while. Nuku Nuku, This Ugly and Beautiful World, Ghosts at School. but the one show i'm most happy about is Louie the Rune Soldier. saw that show when i first got Anime Network about three years ago, and haven't seen it again until now. it's a really funny show. kinda like Slayers, except more sexually charged, and the big doofus is a magician/street brawler instead of a swordsman.

OVA is for those who want the story condensed and lotsa lulz.

Universe is for those who like it drawn out, those who savor each moment of a series, and all the little nuances of life. It's not a sitcom 24/7, y'know. I just finished watching episode....uh....9. The one with the snow, sake, and Tenchi's mom. Beautiful ep.

Being made by the same company (M.O.E), Smash Hit! is a lot better to watch than Cosprayers, imo.

Next up, Love Love, an alternate setting of Smash Hit!.

All three are basically retellings of one another. Cosprayers is the actual series being filmed (quite crappy, but enjoyable the first time, and the first time alone); Smash Hit! is the story from the point of view of the series producer, and Love Love! is the story from the point of view of the series actresses and their relationship to the series writer and promo cameraboy.

You seriously don't know what's good for you. Genshiken is an absolutely awesome series, I don't get how you can have trouble watching it at all. Which Genshiken are we even talking about here, first season?
Title: Re: What Anime are You Currently Watching?
Post by: Shiki Tohno on December 25, 2008, 04:36:21 PM
Yeah, first season. And I just finished it. While it was decent, it moved way too strangely and had it not been because I FORCED myself to finish watching it last night I would have probably left it on hold or dropped it altogether.

I'mma probably hit Garan No Dou and then Ippatsu Kikimusume or something later.

Title: Re: What Anime are You Currently Watching?
Post by: Shiki Tohno on December 26, 2008, 09:11:59 PM
Finally watched Kara no Kyoukai 4: Garan no Dou. I jizzed in my pants (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4pXfHLUlZf4) during some parts of the movie, especially when Shiki first got to use her new Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, and when Tohko threw her the knife near the end of the movie. The scene with Shiki slashing her hair off was nothing short of legendary. "ジャマだ" indeed. :O

Full 10/10 marks from me, and waiting for the next. Fukken Nakata Jouji will probably make me [parasitic bomb] my pants in fear when he comes up next. :P

Next is Kodomo no Jikan OVA 2 followed by by what seemed interesting Gunslinger Girl.

Just watched Resident Evil Degeneration. Badass Leon is badass, and Claire makes an awesome return to badassery. Plus seeing the flashbacks to RE2 made me scream in joy. The ONLY complaint I have is that Capcom can do better at animating faces; most of the faces were almost designed to show a single expression and the mouths moved as if they almost were NOT moving, which turned down the quality a notch. Still, an incredibly enjoyable movie, and the new G that showed up was pretty [tornado fang]ing scary. Overall, 9/10.

Well, I finished both Akane-iro ni Somaru Saka and Vampire Knight Guilty so far this week.  AkaSaka was pretty cliched and had some good moments, but was overall a 7/10.  Vampire Knight Guilty was just as excellent as the last one.  There were some slow elements, but it gets a 10/10. 

Besides watching the currently airings (Casshern, Gundam 00, Toradora, and Tales of the Abyss), I'm up to Episode 6 of Macademi Wasshoi.  Insane anime is insane.

Started on Code Geass to see what the fuzz is about. I must say, they talk fast in this anime. Lots of things are happening, but I got used to it now, and cannot wait to see how the story develops further. The protagonist strangely reminds me of the smart ass Yagami Light in Death Note.

Since I got the German DVD Boxset 1 some time before christmas, I started on Kaiketsu Zorro aka The Legend of Zorro. No Japanese voice acting on that edition, but it's still nice to see another series of my childhood again, plus the Opening is still as badass as ever, despite the German version only featuring the instrumental version of this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4yc6RPXiftM).

I just started on the anime you know. I'm sure that the reason is accurate. Death Note was in any case a great cat and mouse serie.

Instantly dropped.


In the meantime, started Doujin Work. Actually seems funny, and the first episode thus far has had me entirely cracked up. I hope it keeps up like this.

So far, the only thing I disliked about the series (other than the first view episodes being pretty generic with the Enemy-of-the-day) is Schwarz Bruder. He's the most rediculous masked man I have ever seen. Seriously, a GERMAN Ninja? Wirth that kind of hat/mask? And the name is just horrible (and incorrectly spelled. I guess people outside Germany will never learn how to properly decline German adjectives. It has to be "Schwarzer Bruder"). Though Gundam Spiegel is an interesting design, the MS and his Fighter are just odd, even for a series like G Gundam.

I know it's a re-imagining of the original FINAL, but, then again, it's good for me to refresh a bit.
Finished Grand Glorious Gathering, and the ending is just as emotional as FINAL, though Taiga's very last words at the ending of Grand made it even more emotional... The whole "Go forth into the future, with all your courage"...

Also finished the GGG Blockade Numbers, not as entertaining as the original, but I did like the EI-72/73 fusion...

Next up, gonna finish up Kyou no Go no Ni TV ep13, Candy Boy ep4, the Touhou unofficial anime, and the Zero no Tsukaima 3 OVA.

I did finish Kyou, in my honest opinion, the artstyle is not as good as the original OVA, but it was still entertaining.
Zero 3 was... well... What do you seriously expected from a fanservice episode at the beach? XD

You think he's broken in Gundam VS Gundam? So far, I can't really tell. Maybe I'm not used to that MS in the game yet. To me, there's only three units in that game I'd call broken: Freedom, Strike and Destiny.

As for the version, definately the regular, mainly because it's easier to get.

Oh, without a doubt he's broken in GvsG.  His speed is ridiculous, and he has a plethora of moves.  Also, the Wing Zero is right up there as well.

Also, the Wing Zero is right up there as well.

Wing Zero's problem in GvG is his utter lack of accuracy. Sure, his Buster Rifles (single and combined) are powerful as usual, but what good is power for if you can't hit [parasitic bomb]? It's a good suit in the game, but definately not broken.

Anway, in order to keep a relation to the thread, I guess I'll spend some time tomorrow to get on track with Gundam X again.

Accuracy, like in every Gundam VS. game, is more a matter of skill than the Beam Rifle itself.  On Ultimate Mode, I have no issue hitting things with it.  Plus, the Neo Bird Mode and very good Beam Saber combos make it extremely good.

The ZnT OVA has been promised to be nothing more than a fanservice episode filled with boobs and swimwear, and S.ifr 3...

finished Macademi Wasshoi. that show doesn't handle actual plot very well. it should've just stuck to the off the wall zaniness.

i've started checking out Mahoromatic. laugh out loud funny so far, but i expect a more serious turn later on.

saw a couple parts of Pet Shop of Horrors. pretty interesting.

finally, i saw a bit of "the anime called Tsukihime." having not seen the real Tsukihime, i can't complain so far. i understand it angers fans of the original, but how would it be for a casual like me?

I'll keep that in mind.


i've started checking out Mahoromatic. laugh out loud funny so far, but i expect a more serious turn later on.
You won't be disappointed. By the end of the series (and I'm talking the REAL end, read: end of season 2), the anime gets a very serious, yet very emotional and heartfelt tone. It'll make you warm inside while making you remember all the fun you had watching it. :)

Horrible. It mangles MOST of the most important points of the story, and uses a half-assed mix of both of Arcueid's endings. You watch that piece of [parasitic bomb], you're missing on nearly 95% of what Tsuki has to offer.


As for me, I had an unexpected outing today, so I got delayed, but I'm going to start right about now my continuous, sequential playback of all three Mai-Otome S.ifr episodes. I'll report back when I'm done. :3

OH. MY. [tornado fang]ing. GOD.

Not only am I typing this with tears in my eyes, I have found the ONLY other 10/10-5/5 (Very High Rewatch Value) entry in my considerable list of anime, this miracle being Mai-Otome S.ifr. I just finished the series, and it was nothing short of absolutely fantastic, the stuff legends are made of. Thus far, this makes it only two entries in my entire list to have a perfect 10/10-5/5 score, the other one being Onegai Teacher.

This OVA was so good, it should be [tornado fang]ing illegal. Crystal meth doesn't even come close to it.




And now I'm too emotional to go back immediately to Doujin Work. I need to let down the steam I built up watching S.ifr. Maybe in about two days time I'll restart my normal anime-watching schedule.




Oh lord... Rena... I'm so [tornado fang]ing proud of you... ;O;




...And now that I think of it, now I'm thoroughly intrigued as to when exactly was it that she got married and gave birth to little Antsy-chan Arika. :P

Of course with that, I'm now up to ep4 of Strike Witches.

I finally chose what will become my 100th anime: Mai-Otome.  I'm three episodes in thus far and I'm loving it.  Definitely different than Mai-HiME.  I was watching it before, but I was wanting to take a break from this genre for a little while so it wouldn't get stale.  Not that anything Mai related gets stale.
Title: Re: What Anime are You Currently Watching?
Post by: Shiki Tohno on January 20, 2009, 03:51:31 PM
After you watch Otome, make sure to watch the other related OVAs, the prequel S.ifr and the sequel Zwei. They're as rock-hard as the main series, and just as enjoyable. In fact, S.ifr is the second entry in my entire list (which, as you know, is quite abundant in entries) to get a perfect 10/10-Very High Rewatch Value score, so you can probably take a guess as to how damn good it is. :D

you know, i've been hearing a lot of crap being slung at The Anime Called Tsukihime. and frankly, it's not fair. while i'm sure the original game is better, who's to say the show isn't alright by itself? it's really giving the wrong idea to nubs like me. it's kinda how i look at Dracula XX on SNES. if Rondo of Blood didn't exist, Dracula XX could've been an alright game. i say could've, cause Castlevania 4 is superior to that game in every way, despite being made 4 years earlier.

to the point, i've seen 10 episodes of The Anime Called Tsukihime, and i think it's about time an unbiased opinion of it shows up. and i must say...



it's not that good. it never really gets anywhere quick enough. rising action was very little. the transition from establishing the setting to the climax is sudden and unfulfilling. that works for comedy, but not here. a lot of characters aren't that interesting either. i doubt my opinion will change with the two episodes remaining.

There you go. For a random, easy example, the fight with Nrvnqsr Chaos is reduced to Shiki mauling one or two measly dogs (I'm looking at you, Akamaru), while in the original novel he had to deal with dogs, deer, sharks, and, if memory serves, even a freaking elephant.





Plus, the Akiha and Hisui routes kick all kinds of ass nine ways through September.

Aight, since I've been stuck at home for the past few days with shitty internet and a cold that doesn't wanna let go, I've been on a watching spree. Finished both seasons of Black Lagoon this afternoon, and while I'm not one to regularly enjoy violent stuff like this, I have to admit I liked it quite a lot -- I especially loved how Rock ended up being more badass than anyone would have thought, and how Revy ended up going all tsundere for him.

After that, started Witchblade, currently on episode 3. Series seems to be good so far, and the Witchblade itself is visually very well represented.

Aight, since I've been stuck at home for the past few days with shitty internet and a cold that doesn't wanna let go, I've been on a watching spree. Finished both seasons of Black Lagoon this afternoon, and while I'm not one to regularly enjoy violent stuff like this, I have to admit I liked it quite a lot -- I especially loved how Rock ended up being more badass than anyone would have thought, and how Revy ended up going all tsundere for him. XD
Black Lagoon is my most favorite anime and I´m dying to see the third season. Revy aka Two Hands is the most badass woman ever.

Black Lagoon is my most favorite anime and I´m dying to see the third season. Revy aka Two Hands is the most badass woman ever.
Unfortunately, the manga series seems to have ended on November 2006, and no new content on the series has been published ever since, so it's VERY unlikely a third anime season will be released.

I need to finish Black Lagoon: 2nd Barrage sometime, speaking of which.  I finished Mai-Otome Zwei tonight.  Awesome series is awesome.  Another perfect 10 from me.  Now, I'm watching Mai-Otome 0~S.ifr~.  Holy crap. :O  The first episode was INTENSE!  I know why the Artist formerly known as DZ gave it a 10.

See? It's the only other Perfect Score entry (10/10 - Very High Rewatch Value) besides Onegai Teacher in there. :)


As for me, finished Witchblade a few hours ago. The ending [tornado fang]'d up the entire build-up of the story.[spoiler]The main star, Amaha Masane, dies at the end -- but the entire build up during the first 23 episodes makes it look as if somehow she's going to use the Witchblade's power against itself to either get rid of it or overcome the necessity for her to die because of its power.[/spoiler]Drastically lowered score awarded to it because of this; a story with an excellent build up right until the end should NOT blow it like Witchblade did. If the ending had been different, it'd have easily been another Perfect Score.

In the meantime, if only in order to cleanse my mind of the anger and sadness at the end of Witchblade, started ToLOVEru. Haven't really even finished watching the first episode though. XD

Finished Code Geass. It was pretty good! The plot was well crafted, but the background could had been more detailed in my opinion. Also, I think the anime had a little bit too many characters introduced, not that my brain could not handle it, but that's just the way I think about it.

I will take a break watching another anime before I start on season 2.

Too many characters is not really a negative point, atleast not for CG, but I just thought that the plot could had still happen with a few characters missing.

Yeah, Bleach is swarming with characters too. Somehow that does not bother me. And in One Piece, well, the way One Piece works is that whenever a new gigantic arc is coming, new characters are introduced, but after the arc, you almost get to hear zero news regarding these new characters and the Straw Hat Pirates then start moving on to the next story with once again new characters. One Piece has definitely the most characters out of them all though.

You might as well just skip all the shitty teasing series and go for the real deal by watching actual H-animes. I personally think Ecchi makes no sense because it's only half of what you'd actually want to see. There's like so many animes out there which are based on real ero-games, but they were turned into regular romance/ecchi series for normal TV which I simply think isn't right.

finished Master of Mosquiton '99.
it was cool...
but needz more crazy red eye Mosquiton. :P
hmmm... what to watch next...
Im probably gonna try and find the first mosquiton anime, and watch that on and off.
but other than that...
hmmm.

Any suggestions?
I have quirky tastes when it comes to anime.
as can be seen by animes Ive seen. (Eatman, Mosquiton, Saber Marionette J, to name a few...)
lol, now that i notice it, Im really into 90's anime. XD XD

also, funfact: I got into Mosquiton through a friend of mine. curiously enough, the guy who made the Mosquiton manga is the creator of SMJ, which is one of my top faves. what a small world it is, huh?

I've begun watching Soukyuu no Fafner - Dead Aggressor, on of these, quote on quote, "Evangelion clones". I've seen the first 3 episodes now and I must say I like it so far, although there's still a little irritation because the main character of the series, Makabe Kazuki, reminds me so freaking much of Shinn Asuka because they look so similiar (and because it's the same character designer, lots and lots of Gundam SEED dejà vus included). I really like the first opening and ending, however.

Started to watch Furi Kuri a few days ago. Weird and awesome series, but 6 episodes...? I want more! >_>

And also today, I started watching the first episode of Queen's Blade: Rurou no Senshi. SO MUCH fanservice. So far only the RAW version is available, so I'll have to wait until the subs are released to get what was actually going on.

Finished Betterman.
twas interesting. I wish it had more of the titular character though. he appeared like once per episode, once to fight, to save the protagonists asses, and a few "cameos" where he's just watching something happen. only in the later episodes near the climax does the series start delving more into his character a bit.

hmm. now im off to watch the first episode of Avatar. me and my Anime club teacher made a deal. I give Avatar a chance, and he'll check out Yugioh 5D's. :P

other than that, any suggestions on what anime to watch next? you guys should get an idea by now what kind of anime's I like.

K-ON! is...very wierd...I actually had to force myself through the first episode, but I'm glad now, since the ED is absolutely awesome. Once the single is out (April 22nd), the mp3 is so going on my J-culture playlist on my iPod.

Other than that, I took a look at Dragon Ball Kai and Valkyria Chronicles today. I probably will also look into Queen's Blade because people say it's such incredible trash that it's awesome again...though it will probably kill me on the inside to hear Kawasumi Ayako as the leading character in this series...and I already couldn't watch Kanokon because of that.

FFFFFFFFFFUUUU-

I forgot about the Valkyria Chronicles animation, is it good Saber? Also, nothing, NOTHING, was going to stop me from watching/rewatching FMA S2 episode 1. I love it already, but it seems a bit more humor filled than the previous series. Also, the "Fullmetal Alchemist reveal scene" was better in the last one.

Not nitpicking though. :D

EDIT - Avatar: The Last Airbender isn't anime and is godly. It's pretty much the last of the amazing Western animated series, with style cues coming from Korean animators. Get it right people. :P

Subtank will definately like it because there's actually a character with his favored kind of ridiculously sized boobs (http://myanimelist.net/character/20893/Cattleya).

Character designs are outright horrible. Compared to that, Word's Worth (also from that studio) looks like Record of Lodoss War. Only character that's remotely appealing would be Risty.

Yet somehow, Dickeido managed to show the world he was the biggest one.

And he doesn't look that bad without the giant heatsinks. Decade on the other hand looks like crap.

Decided to pick up  Tears to Tieria. At 1st I was sketchy about it. Mainly because what I thought was the main male looked like a loser I would surely hate. But turns out it was the awesome silver haired guy that was the Demon King. But he doesn't appear till the end of the episode, so it's not really shown what his personality is like in the 1st episode.

As to the other guy He.....Turned out into the loser I thought he'd be and surely hate >.>. Already hate him due to the whole sister complex he'll most likely have, and   his random yelling in the 1st episode..........Also brown. I can't stand brown clothes/outfits. (UPS RRRAAGGEE!!)

I spent most of the day marathoning through episodes 6 to 24 of Gankutsuou: The Count of Monte Cristo. I am at a loss of words. If there really is an anime out there that is worthy of the title "Masterpiece", it is this series. *___*

I've never seen a series that was this perfect on all accounts. Story, setting, characters and development, music, atmosphere...

I spent most of the day marathoning through episodes 6 to 24 of Gankutsuou: The Count of Monte Cristo. I am at a loss of words. If there really is an anime out there that is worthy of the title "Masterpiece", it is this series. *___*

I've never seen a series that was this perfect on all accounts. Story, setting, characters and development, music, atmosphere...

It's been awhile. Finished Code Geass Season 2 in March, and saw popular animes such as Zero no Tsukaima and Mai Hime/Otome further on as filler material for me personally, and now I am alround halfway of Mushi-Shi. Wolf's Rain will be next, as I heard interesting things about that one.

So far, I have seen the most anime in 2009 than in any other year before. I am just in the mood for wanting to see many TV series right now.

from what i've read, that's exactly what it is. or rather, it's a workout video that uses anime.

That's an intresting advantage, because in Japan, anime is popular. Using anime to get the japanese to work out, that's a given, but in America, it's another workout DVD.

Only one problem, it will have to star either Yumi or Tifa, since they have the most fanservice out of the entire Final Fantasy cast, plus they have been in 7, the most rediculously popular Final Fantasy to date.

Finished Mushi-shi, it was not my cup of tea. Yeah, it's a nice calm serie with beautiful backgrounds, but the characters were generic, I didnt like the episodic way, and found it unfair to associate every strange phenomenon with Mushi beings. Then again, that is what the anime was about.

Started on Wolf's Rain now, and I am excited about it. Wonder how it will develop.

Well, I love the new scenes, the catfight between Adiane and Yoko (8D), and especially so the ending battle.

still checking out Queen's Blade. it feels like they're trying to increase the bps (boobs per second) each episode. in Episode 8, the most recent, Shizuka was topless practically the entire time.

also, in Episode 12 of Clannad, i have to applaud Kotomi's seiyuu. that girl let out the most amazing, blood curdling scream i have ever heard.

about the last episode of Code Geass. i didn't hate it as much as i thought i would. i still don't like it, but i dunno. maybe spoiling myself numbed me of it in more ways than one. i didn't like the shifting narration in the first half; i'm not a fan of that type of storytelling. and the "How are we know?" ending is cliche. there could've been another way to get a happy ending out of the show.

pfft. look at me. arguing about Code Geass.

i will say, though, that i felt sorry for Nunally. seeing your family die before your eyes is horrible. especially when you have to see it twice, and that second time is only a few months after regaining sight. don't know if the slave outfit was necessary, though. crippled slave lolis is someone's fetish, i guess.

i watched like 10 minutes of an episode of YuGiOh 5Ds yesterday. Yusei's VA sounded really good. but Jack sounded TERRIBLE. i already hate the guy voicing him cause his regular speaking voice is atrocious, he's all over the place in 4Kids, and for Jack, they gave him a phoneybaloney accent.

concerning the new motorcycle duels, from what i saw, they weren't that different from regular duels. they just both activated a Field card at the beginning. meh, i can pass on this one.

Anime Network picked up a bunch of stuff last week. some older shows like Lost Universe, and some newer ones like Izumo and Koi Koi 7. the latter is a textbook high school harem. from the first episode, there wasn't a damn thing unique about it.

also, Queen's Blade episode 10. were they wearing tree sap?

And Im glad I did. It was very good. the animation was really smooth and fluent and the art was simple yet really cute- and the story was sweet and really well written.
And I must say; Baron is [tornado fang]ing awesome.

Well, it was created by Studio Ghibli after all. They make some of the most memorable movies of all time, IMO.

Not to mention Miyazaki had a huge roll in creating it, so it's already a guaranteed masterpiece.

I just finally found and watched Master of Mosquiton the Vampire. (The original 6 ep anime)
I found it good... It was really awesome... But It had one of those sad and pointless endings that I detest so much.
Although Berserk Mosquiton is pretty badass. I mean seriously. He can physically manifest his shadow into a [tornado fang]ing scythe.
And he has red bleeding eyes.
Meh. I liked Mosquiton 99 better... I hate pointless sour endings.

Aaaand I finished BBB. its only 12 episodes after all. Im kinda depressed that the story doesnt go on from there, theres more development that can be done. But whatever. it gets the job done. We learn that Jirou eventually has to return his blood to Kotaro once he regains Eve's memories, and we know it'll happen eventually.

I hear its actually a Light Novel. Im wondering if the novel ends the same way.

The anime had some really stunning animation in the first few episodes with lots of awesome shading and light effects, but that pretty much only lasted for the introduction arc and declined over time, until we got that awful Caster arc with hiddeous animation quality. The last arc looked somewhat better, but it never regained the quality of the beginning.

Finished K-ON!. It was an OK show. Too much random stuff of the bad category, too much moe stuff, not enough plot and one of the stupidest main characters I have ever laid eyes on, Osaka from Azumanga Daioh is Einstein compared to Yui. If there was a second season of this, I'd probably watch it, but there's no way I would ever pay money for this show.

EDIT:

Watched Aim For The Top! Gunbuster in one sitting. I can see what stuff Gurren Lagann borrowed from it. While I can see that this must have been pretty inspiring, to me, it wasn't remotely as awesome as GL, or G Gundam for that matter.

finished Black Lagoon. it was a hell of a roller coaster ride with a lot of action. but it's also that roller coaster metaphor that hurts somewhat. at first, everything just keeps getting better. its hits a high point with Roberta, and the Hansel and Gretel arc was by far the hilight of the show. but everything after that started to dip, until it ends with a Yakuza story. call me crazy, but i don't find the Yakuza all that interesting. Yukio, especially. i thought she was pretty lame through and through. Ginji was a little more interesting. perhaps they shouldn't have started Second Barrage with Hansel and Gretel; should've ended on a high note.

overall, it was a fun watch. the action was always top notch, and the characters are lovable despite how [tornado fang]'d up they are.

i'm looking forward to season three.

in the meantime, i have to look around for something. maybe rewatch Godannar and/or Pani Poni Dash.

Nah, the Shiro / Aina thing wasn't really that developed. The whole infatuation was far too quick and shallow. They met like twice and spent a few hours together and then they're suddenly in love and all. Meanwhile, Domon and Rain were working together all the time in G Gundam, but they had their problems that needed to be solved, trusts broken and regained and all and realizing at the end what the other meant for them.

I disagree.  I saw it more as a chance scenario that blossomed into love. These were two soldiers who thought the other side were enemies & evil, but through working together to save each other's lives, something unexpected happened.  It didn't just happen overnight, cause both of them were still focused on their own side of the war, but Shiro still thought about her even despite knowing that the chances of seeing her again were slim to none, especially considering that she was a Zeon soldier.  Through twist of fate, they did meet again, and then realized they had feelings for one another, but even so they had to part once again.  All it took was that second encounter to make Shiro question his involvement in the Federation, and made him realize how much he cared for Aina.  When you meet the right person, a lot of times all it takes is 1 or 2 meetings.  It's similar to Romeo & Juliet.

To me, the story of Shiro and Aina is the truest telling of a romance story, that being one of chance.  That's what love & finding the right person really is all about.  It's about chance encounters.  I honestly thought Domon & Rain would wind up together from the very beginning of G Gundam.  But with Shiro & Aina, going into the series blind, I didn't know.  One could've wound up killing the other, or one could've died saving the other, or they both could've been killed.

Just about finished my Sengoku BASARA-a-thon. It's all I got until Sengoku BASARA 3 and Season 2 hit next year, after all.

Might have to give Guin Saga another look, for more manly action.

Yeah, 08th MS Team ended up being one of my fave Gundam series, because I thought this romance was told quite well, along with a number of other things I thought were done well.

Hopefully, one day, I'll once again see another Gundam series that does for me like 08th did. For right now though, the Gundam fan in me has been largely asleep since mid-way through SEED, and beyond Gundam vs. Gundam and various SRW appearances, has little reason to wake up.  8D

I'll admit, Unicorn does interest me. Especially right on the rebound of that "other announcement" from earlier this year, which resulted in a PS3 game...  8D

But we'll see if it has what it takes to keep me hooked, beyond the obvious "Red Comet" connection that may exist.

If nothing else, I hope a nice Gundam vs. Gundam game comes from it. The suit designs I like. Katoki does it again! 0v0

Again, because of psptube being my only medium, I'm getting the unique experience of getting to watch both Dub and Subs at once. *shrugs* As long as I get everything thats important.

LoL, he's a 14 year old kid so irresponsibility is pretty much standard.  He doesn't just magically become a good pilot like Kamille, but became better as he went along.  Also, he grows throughout the series, in terms of responsibility as well as becoming more of a man, much better than both Kamille & Amuro did, but he still maintains his uplifting personality & confidence.  Char couldn't touch Haman cause he had a much weaker Mobile Suit at the time, and Kamille came close when he did fight her due to his newtype abilities, but also he never really got a rematch due to going insane.

finished the first portion of Clannad, except for the Tomoya/Tomoyo OVA. i'm still surprised that i liked the show and stuck with it. i'm usually not one for sweet things like this. and i'm not a fan of Key, either. but yeah, i liked it.

almost done with Princess Resurrection, which has quickly become one of my favorite shows. just saw the Flandre Goes Bananas episode. it was priceless.

i'm also working on Gun Frontier and Super Gals, just saw the first episode of Daphne, and downloaded the King of Fighters OVA.

aw, the alternate end to Clannad was sweet. that one episode carried a lot of emotion in it, almost as much as the entire show.

also saw the last episode of Princess Resurrection. could have done without it, honestly. it would've been better if that occured before the end and before the plot reared its ugly head. Flandre Goes Banana Sandwich would've been a better ending point.

and now that i've seen the beginning of Revolutionary Girl Utena, it's not so mindfuck anymore. it still is out there, though, what with all the gender confusion and "epic" songs.

I want to say Soul Eater, but I'm afraid of some of the things I've heard about the latter bit of the show. It apparently suffers from the same thing the first run of FMA did with not matching up with the manga & BSing an ending.

Anyone want to chime in on this?

I've watched too much anime in a short amount of time. It really does hurt trying to make yourself see what happens next.
What I finished so far:
Rewatched both seasons of Code Geass. Still kicks ass, as I remembered.
All 3 seasons of Magical Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha. It is oddly a darker anime than most magical girl ones and I am not ashamed to admit that is brought some tears in the end; especially in StrikerS.
Also started watching Kanamemo. Good, relaxing anime; so much ecchi...
Finally, I am going to start watching CANAAN. Just need to find your better-than-average downloads.

In any case, 2nd gig just isnt the same as the first SAC. Dunno, but they started right off the bat with the main storyline, and only have a few "breaks" so to speak. I like the one with that little shop. With the bodies of the cyborg boy and girl. I see that was Motoko eh? Explains how she came across the shop in the first place.
Tachikomas are still adorable, weird face guy is ugly, and Togusa continues to rock his retro hairdoo. srsly, its so 90's.

I thought it was really moving. Sad, but- In a good way. Its touching, really. Truly a good episode.

Though I really like the one with the Tachikomas and their creator. That ending was really touching, with the Tachikoma looking at the guy like a real kid would look at his long lost father.

I'll probably use part of my September paycheck to get these DVDs. Meant to watch this series for over a year now, and the sequel is coming up soon.

Then again, it IS Queen's Blade. XD
So yeah, OVA ep4 watched. Warning of long slimey things. :P

Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?
Post by: Satoryu on September 30, 2009, 08:35:33 PM
Going by the bpm (boobs per minute), it'll be at least as "good", most likely "better." But then again, season one had Death by Exploding Titties in the very first episode, so that's going to be hard to top.

Im watching The Devil Lady/Devilman Lady

Its odd.
best way i can describe what it seems like to me,  is an odd mix between the 90's-ness of Nightwalker, (along with the monster of the day formula and the side bit about the girl with parents killed by monsters) Betterman, with its shpiel of a higher evolution of beings,  and Claymore, what with its thing of claymores "awakening" if they go over their limits, becoming flesh eating monsters. Yeah- that would be the best way to describe it.

EDIT: Well, I finished it. and while the whole series is seriously depressing, at least the end is somewhat nice.

T'was good, all in all. I seriously lol'd at Akira Fudo's cameo appearance though.
(Another of the mangakas creations, Devilman, from another manga. The inspiration for Devilman Lady)
He's little more than "just another character" but its a fun Cameo. He even appears in his Devilman form at one point.

Hmm. I see.. Im proably gonna pick up one of the Devilman Mangas some time.
I was actually somewhat hoping for maybe a brief teamup of Devilman and Devil Lady, but I guess it wasnt gonna happen, with Akira being little more than a cameo appearance with no relevance. he was even under a different name. (still wonder why. It made no difference really) Was fun seeing him suddenly go Devilman on those guys near the end though.

I don't like where the second arc of Revolutionary Girl Utena is going. This Black Rose deal sounds too trope. Though the episode where Nanami turns into a cow was hilarious.

Also watching the second half of Super Gals. i.e, the half that wasn't dubbed. I miss the dub already, although Second Place sounds way better in Japanese. Mami sounds kinda dumb in both versions.

I have a lot more on my watch list, but I can't think of it right now.

Yes, the German version does have Polish subtitles.

But technically, "Anime-Virtual" does now no longer exist. They got swallowed up by the French branch, Kaze. Therefore, the AV logo is no longer on the cover of the Geass boxes, as well as their DBZ release.

No, he meant the previous cover design that was used in early advertisement.

(http://img4.imageshack.us/img4/7927/adv01624.jpg)

They scrapped that one however. The image of Lelouch and C.C. (which the German dub pronounces the way it's written and not "C2") is used on the back however.

The new, final cover looks like this:

Tough, the fact that they are still releasing animu shows that it was not yet closed... I sure [tornado fang]ing hope they won't. I want to at least complete my Geass DVD Collection that will start with this DVD.

You may not get that much about it but its atleast deeper than first series in terms of drawing quality and plot.

suffice to say, I want.
However, the catch is that its region 4.
God F*ing dammit.
I dont think my DVD player is multi region...

I mean, its hard enough to find the DVD collection of this series, (im not interested in VHS's dammit!) and this one is not the right region.
...

I would probably get it anyway. Just cuz Ive been searching for the DVD collection of it for years. >_>;

As for what Im watching right now-
5D's, FMA:B and rewatching a few old animes from my list

Saw New Kimagure Orange Road. It's a nice movie. It's got a lot of heart. But it was a real blast from the past, too. I dunno, something about one of the characters using a beeper made me feel so much older.

After reading the recent Shelf Life on ANN, I'm curious about Popotan. No doubt it's shameless, but I want to see if it has merit.

I'm also watching The World of Narue. I'm a bit unsure about it, it feels kinda slow. But I'm sticking with it for now because Episode 2 is the dub's Crowning Moment of Funny. Was not expecting to hear Arnold in an anime dub.

Other things I'm watching:
-Revolutionary Girl Utena
-Super Gals
-You're Under Arrest
-Alice Academy
-He is My Master
-Clannad After Story
-Daphne in the Brilliant Blue
-Queen's Blade
-Kampfer

Look, I'm usually very, VERY forgiving of anime endings. But even I have to say the Queen's Blade ending was [tornado fang]ing terrible. It's the worst rush job I've ever seen. This is something that should've been stretched out into 2 episodes at least, cause they crammed so much into this one, it's a big mess.

Already at Ep12 of Sora wo Kakeru Shoujo.
Besides the Code Geass references here and there (LOL AT THE FIRST OP), it's a pretty good watch.

Posted on: December 16, 2009, 21:17:05
And finished Sora wo Kakeru Shoujo.
The overall plot really touches on how society and real life can be cruel, and escapism... Very nicely done. A great watch.
Oh, and evil Leopard > normal Leopard. XD

Finished quite a few today.

1. Completed Spice and Wolf II. Longer arcs, and that ending... I wanted more. XD

2. Watched first 2 eps of the Spice and Wolf specials. Horo teaching warm-up exercises? XD

3. Watched first 8 of the Sora wo Kakeru Shoujo picture drama. Sakura's ep was priceless.

4. Watched ep 2 of Mahou Sensei Negima! Mou Hitotsu no Sekai. Good to see Chachamaru being winded up by Negi, as well as Chisame's... Peril. XD

Decided to start Kampfer, and am trying to finish up Mai-HiME.

Also watching Birdy Decode with a friend, and finished Kara no Kyoukai 7 with that friend recently as well.

Edit:
I think Kampfer is alot better when you don't expect much, since I initially saw all of /a/'s complaints first hand... I know not to expect the show to get better, so I'm enjoying it as it is.
Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?

Let me guess. The manga/novel's better, right?

You know what? I'm sick and tired of that. Instead of comparing things to what they're based off of, why not just judge it on its own merits? "Just read the manga, dope." No, I don't like to read manga, I want to watch a [tornado fang]ing cartoon, okay?

Besides, Kampfer's awesome.

Woah, man. I never said that. You guessed wrong...

I have not read the manga, and I probably will never pick it up. Same with the novel.

I usually enjoy shows that take themselves more seriously, and if I was expecting Kampfer to do that, I may not enjoy it as much. Because I'm watching it for what it is, it's awesome.

Ah, well in that case, not really. I've heard of the manga and novel being better, but there's also the people that complain about those as well.

Most of what I've heard is about people expecting it to get better throughout the story and complaining about all the potential it had, but never really going anywhere. Then the good parts about how the show's biggest highlight is just being plain fun to watch despite (however many) flaws people can point out if they feel like it.

The Irresponsible Captain Tylor- Up to ep 19.

Hokuto no Ken - I think ep 45 was the last one I watched... I went through a marathon on Thanksgiving.

Bleach - Which I'm going to start watching online, because it looks like Adult Swim isn't going to show any until after February and then they start with a Filler Arc, some new captain the Soul Society gets. I watched the first episode and watched a little of the end of the arc.

Gundam Wing- About to start on the DVD Collection II.

Great Teacher Onizuka - Hoping to get the second semester for christmas.

I'm surprised at the storyline, very well made, and... Kinda scary due to how terrorism could advance to such a level.

Also watched the Akikan! OVA (What is up with OVA episodes being hot spring stories... XD Not that I don't enjoy either way... XD), as well as the Kanokon OVAs (Summer, but same thing with Akikan! OVA... XD)

Started watching Ghost in the Shell - STAND ALONE COMPLEX since my replacement DVD set from Archonia arrived on monday.

However, I seem to have really bad luck right now, because there's another freak error. For whatever reason, the second disc does NOT have Japanese 2.0 sound (I looked a bit around the internet, and haven't discovered any other cases of this happening). And since I don't have a 5.1 system, I had no way of watching it in Japanese on my television, thus forcing me to watch it dubbed. I mean the dub isn't bad or anything, it's a good dub actually, but it still freaks me out. I checked all other DVDs of the set and they are fine.

So Kampfer is only 12 episodes long, huh? That's a bit of a letdown. The show just ends with a lot of unfinished business. Well, that and a gag episode 12 which while funny, doesn't fill the void.

I've also finished watching He is my Master, which is also only 12 episodes long and also leaves me wanting more. But at least everything's kinda resolved at the end of this.

I agree with you on He is my master, though it could have gone on longer if it kinda ditched the whole "contest" thing, which got stale in the final episode. I also say that the biggest question I have after finishing this is how the hell can Sakura control minds, summon both a gun and sword, and give out Kampfer bracelets, and make animals talk too. Oh and the resolution to the whole moderator thing? No one wins since the battle really does not have a victor?
I prefer They are my Noble Masters over He is my Master on the whole animes with "master" in thier name.
And one more thing I find odd is both of us watching the same two animes.....

Well, card-battling... Service... It's ok in it's own right.

I'm dropping a few shows. Alice Academy is having a hard time holding my interest now. Popotan is too, despite the amount of service. Popotan is trying too hard to be serious; it works better as a full on comedy. I'm also dropping The World of Narue because it's not really getting anywhere, and I'm starting to lose my patience with the dub.

Started Kannazuki no Miko. Giant robots and lesbos? It's gotta be good, right?

Almost done with Daphne, which I'm kinda surprised I stuck with it this far. The serious business kinda came out of nowhere, but it isn't as obtrusive as in other shows. And at least there's a few episodes to flesh it out. But the first bonus episode was fantastic. It might be the show's Crowning Moment of Funny.

[spoiler]Remind me to keep the TvTropes quotes to a minimum. They're going to get played out real quick otherwise.[/spoiler]

Not any more it ain't.

Well it is, if you don't focus too much on plot and stuff.  Its good for what it is, a simple Super Robot show with a blend of Comedy. Also, Tits.

Anyway, finished Episode 13 Tonight. Going to finish up to 16 by tomorrow.

Currently watching Episode 17 of TTGL, What the Hell? Did they just hire the same VA's that they used for Geass? Simon and Rossiu sound Exactly like Suzaku and Lelouch now, and that blonde chick sounds like Kallen. Jeez, talk about a little lazy.

As I mentioned in the Geass Board, I'm taking a small break on TTGL to dive through hell and survive the pain and suffering of Part 2 and disc 1 of part 3 of Code Geass R2, once it gets to the second disc it all becomes so nice.

Damn, I like this show so much more when I don't have to wait through a 2 month repeat torture.

Finished Daphne in the Brilliant Blue. I liked it more than I thought I would. Although the last episode does throw quite a bit at you. The second extra episode does that body-switching thing that's only been done in every show ever. But it was still fun seeing Gloria in Maya's body. The facial expressions were awesome. Kinda reminded me of Revy, except with a huge forehead. Maya in Gloria's body wasn't as interesting, though.

Also, Simon right, he's reminds me of that one friend everyone has that has an insane level of humility but at the same time could outshine everyone. That type of person almost always gets shafted out of a totally happy end.

The original Gundam, which I'm finding pretty repetitive

That is why you should watch the movie trilogy instead of the original TV series.

No monster Mobile Suit/Mobile Armor of the week, no G-Fighter, no Gattai sequences, no Guntank in space or all those other super robot shenanigans. Also superior animation in some cases.

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-lIZe8unpuc[/youtube]

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_GOVudn0SE[/youtube]

This last one wasn't from Samurai Champloo.  Now, I know they're aren't many rap fans on RPM, but I can't stress enough how this one song is infinitely better than the majority of rap that comes out today.  Well, sorry to interrupt the topic and please continue on.

Finished Clannad After Story. The ending is a pretty big copout. But the ride is an emotional rollercoaster. I've almost cried on numerous occasions. Just waiting to see the other extra episodes now, and then wait for the dub.

Watched Evangelion 1.0 last night. It was pretty good. Although cause I haven't seen the original in forever, I've forgotten a lot. Half the time I as saying to myself "Is that new? I don't remember that."

Posted on: March 21, 2010, 22:40:19
Jeez, the Clannad dub came out really damn quick. 2 episodes a week, too. I only watched the first one so far, though.

The only real problem is Sunohara. I think Greg Ayres could pull off the role, but he's just using the wrong voice. He's using the wimpy kid voice for a character that isn't that young. It's especially jarring when you hear him next to some other characters; they sound too adult by comparison. Kyou's the best example of that. I think casting Shelley Black was the perfect choice, she pulls off the bitchy mood really well, but she does sound a bit older than the character looks. Tomoyo has a similar issue, but not nearly as bad. Everyone else sounds really good. I enjoyed Matrenga's take on Tomoya. Sanae sounds perfect. And when I read the cast list and saw Luci Christian, I was like "Oh no, not again." I'm surprised, she pulled off Nagisa pretty nicely. The voice isn't as squeaky as in Japanese, but it still fits the character. And looking ahead, I think no one else could dub Fuko's voice other than Hilary Haag.

Currently watching:
Slayers Revolution
One Piece (Ep 108 of Funimation)
Bleach (ep 223ish, I skipped the 9th and 11th season. I dunno about the 9th, I might watch it on Adult Swim, I'm planning on going back to the 11th when they get done fighting in Karakura town, which will probably take a while.)
Naruto Shippuden (Disney X D)
FMA: Brotherhood

On hold:
Gundam wing
Hokuto no Ken (I watched a marathon on Thanksgiving day, but other than that, haven't watched anything else. Maybe I'll watch some on easter.  8D)

Full metal panic! I just finished and am now watching its sequel, which has better action scenes and pretty much better everything.

I felt the 1st season focused on blended action and comedy. Fumoffu I felt focused more on the comical aspects, while The second Raid is more about action/drama. It's a good series!

Quote from: Hiroki
Because L was the level of brilliant that there's absolutely no chance anyone besides Kira could come close to him and any of his successors can't possibly compare?

Also, because I'm weird and I relate to the weird characters. L is a weird character.

Yea, L's successor Near does come close, but it's not exactly the same cat and mouse game. Light just has too much of an advantage here.

[spoiler]...At least until the very end. At least Near pulled that off well.[/spoiler]

I have to say that it is more dramatic with Tessa exploding straight at Souske, and the younger sister of those two evil ones getting her armed ripped off, then both of them blowing up, and the epic black guy.
Also Fummoffu was overall a funny season, that student council guy with the white hair was hilarious when he translated what that punk was saying. And the way he handled Souske's over the top ways of handling school life.

Before watching episode 2 of Clannad dubbed, I realized that there was a very good possibility they'd [tornado fang] up the Big Dango Family song. And yeah, they kinda did. I mean, it's better than Wendee Lee's take on God Knows, but yeah. As expected, Hilary Haag sounds good as Fuko. Kotomi doesn't sound as awkward as I expected her to, which may be a good thing, actually. Let's just hope this girl can scream bloody murder.

Alright, finally some time to catch up on some anime...

Toradora SOS is finally completely subbed, and it's food discussion and FYI.
Queen's Blade specials are still going on into season 2... And it's still just as lolwuttheheck.
Shana S ep2 is very heartwarming, and Shanatan dos is just so lolworthy.

Should be starting Sacred Blacksmith, or Sora no Woto next.

Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?

Well, I started, and finished The Sacred Blacksmith first.
It's an OK watch, though the climax left me wanting a bit more.

Gonna start Sora no Woto next.

Oh yeah, forgot to mention the Rin Kagamine (Yes, the Vocaloid) look-alike in Sacred Blacksmith.
Pity she died. Horribly too.

Finished Utena last night. The ending made no sense at all, but that's to be expected of a mindfuck show like this.

Up to ep 11 of Clannad dubbed. About Matrenga, his voice fits and he acts well, but his pronunciation always seems to be off. For one thing, he never once said Kouko properly. There's are two os in there, you dip! I could've swore I heard a Yoosooke at one point, too. (On a side note, casting Illich Guardiola was a perfect choice. His accent fits Yusuke's hammy speeches so well.) Also, everyone kinda slurs the pronunciation of Fujibayashi, they turn the first a into a schwa, almost cutting it out entirely. They haven't said Ryou right, either. They always say Rou, which is weird because they get Kyou right. But hey, I'd much rather hear a Rou than a Rayou.

I personally prefer STAND ALONE COMPLEX. I've seen the Ghost in the Shell movie like 3 times, but it's still confusing me on some parts. And I haven't even seen Innocence, which supposedly is even more filled with "Oshii-ness". First movie is still an accomplishment in terms of animation and portraiting mature themes in anime though.

thats pretty much why its so great. As far as Motoko Goes, it strays REEEEALLY far from her original portrayal, But its still an interesting thing. In a society where theres almost no difference between machine and man, who defines what "Human" is?
She starts having this existential meltdown, "what if im actually not real?" Hell, you want to leave Section 9, you hand in your body and all your memories. You basically give up your life and have to start a new one.

SAC is actually pretty good too. I like it. I HAVE it. Watched it a few times over. Second gig felt weird though. But I loved the story about the boy and little girl. (AKA Motoko's past)

Sora no Woto builds up slowly, and then WHAM, the final ep, very touching. ;_;

As for Railgun, it's Biribiri afterall, and it's nice to see the Index characters appearing as well.

And I would be lying if I didn't watch the Queen's Blade S2 specials. Same old wtf.

Nope, she can't. She's worse by FAR. Compared to Japanese, there's like no impact in English. On the bright side, Greg Ayres has been lowering his pitch for Sunohara as of late.

Watced Hotaru no Haka, this movie can not be compared to any other modern animes. This one is a realistic anime, not our daily crap. This is the masterpiece movie of reality. Someone who find this boring or not shed any tear are just inhuman. This is not a movie of enjoyment, it is an experience of sadness and true love.

Finally finished downloading the last of Dance in the Vampire Bund. I have mixed feelings about this one. I love the manga and the way to story cares out its dark plots, sinister events, loving of a cute princess. The anime portrays a lot of that, but since as it was done by SHAFT, the plot all went to hell. They even went as far as dregrading the final boss characters into grunts of another more "evil" villain. Plus, they tried too hard in fitting 5 volumes of the manga in 12 episodes.

Overall, a 6/10.

I'm gonna finish up Rockman.EXE soon, and then get started on Axess.

Might as well continue learning Japanese because not all the eps of Axess have been subbed, and unless I'm mistaken there aren't any subbed eps of Stream. Beast and Beast+ are also hit and miss.

They all suck because either there's parts that are untranslated (supposedly new scenes that weren't in the original theatrical release, though I never saw a sub for a 2.0 camrip), that have no uniform subbing (as in, using honorifics at one point, then dropping them later or using Japanese name order here, and Western order there) or they are just too [tornado fang]ing big for my notebook to handle. I got a supposedly good sub for my DVD raw, and the timing is just way off for some reason (despite being the same source) and I don't wanna use that freaking huge 1920x1080 file.

I'll wait 'till some actual subbers release a decently encoded version of the movie. Took some time on Summer Wars, too.

Also... HIDEYOSHI! *shakes fist* O^O
[spoiler]A trap, so trapful, that he has his own designated toilet/restroom/dressing room/public bath. *shakes fist again*[/spoiler]

Watching Digimon Data Squad/Savers on TV, they just got to the episode where they introduce Bancholeomon and he instantly became one of my favorite characters for some reason XD

Thank god that despite using all of the US dub names and terms that's where the similarities end. I hope that for once they actually show the second OP/ED...although with the whole "plagiarizing a fandub" scandal it may be for the best if they don't.

Oh, and I still think that whoever chose the timeslot for it was [tornado fang]ing retarded.

Hehe, it's a coincidence that they airing Data Squad here too, tonight's ep is the showdown with Merukimon, with Kurata. 8D

Finished up the last 3 eps of the To-LOVE-Ru OVAs.
Ecchi seriously never stops, though I like the RPG ep.

Also watched ep3 of Mahou Sensei Negima! Mou Hitotsu no Sekai.
Finally seeing Rakan, and his antics... XD
Can't wait to see how it all ends... Though it's obvious where it's going.

Lastly, Quiz Magic Academy 2.

You know, to be honest I don't know either, its been a while since I've seen it, I watched a RAW of it I downloaded, with absolutely no Subs! So I had to just watch the action and listen to Japanese which wasn't translated. Very fun and annoying at the same time..

Have to say, the way weapons appearing/evolving to defeat Naraku still felt rushed. XD

Let's see here. I finished Special A. It's a wonderful show, and not as episodic as you may think in the beginning. I'm surprised everything fit together and built up to a bigger story. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants a good laugh and/or those who aren't phased by noodle people.

Also I've been taking a look at Tayutama, Asu no Yoichi, Hidamari Sketch, Hell Girl, and the dub of Dragon Ball Z Kai. I knew some voices were changed in that, but I didn't know all of them. They recast Frieza of all people. In fact, they got a man (Chris Ayres) doing his voice now. I'm not complaining, I'm just so used to the feminine reptilian Linda Young version.

Sorry for reply lateness, but two whole years. It wasn't released until November last year. I'm hoping we don't get 2.22 in 2011, and finally get 3.33 and FINAL in 2013.

Anyway, Funimation hasn't even obtained the rights to 2.22 apparently, according to their message boards.
Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?
Post by: Saber on June 30, 2010, 02:06:31 AM
Interestingly enough, 2.22 will be out here in Germany at the end of July during a convention and then available for regular sale in mid september. Why exactly did Germany get the license while America did not? It was the same with the first movie (except we're only getting 1.11 now, but only on Blu-ray, but not on DVD. Only DVD is 1.01.), which I find to be extremely wierd.

In other news, I finished Durarara!!. I must say the ending was kind of lackluster, but I'm guessing they want to save stuff for season two.

I also found it very interesting that Germany is gonna get WaAaAay before the USA (XD) but since I figuered we might not even get it, I got 2.22 on Blu-Ray w/ english subs thanks to a web site refering to another website were they sold 2.22

But if dub 2.22 does come out in the States I'll still buy it just for the sake of seeing it w/ the dub.

True, still Durarara!! was a great watch.

Also managed to watch the last 2 eps of the Queen's Blade S2 specials... Finally ended... Still... Cracccccccck.

Also, Gurren Lagann Parallel Works 2. To me, it's about there with the prequel, but... Something felt left out for me. Though seeing Kittan and his sisters kick ass, and also some very impressive Gurren gattais...

Lastly, a funny OVA by the name of Tono to Issho. Seeing well-known samurai generals like Date Masamune and Oda Nobunaga going totally out of character... Priceless. XD

I loved the franchise. Especially the first series, Macross 7 and Frontier. I like the combination of love triangles, mecha action and such.

I'm on the fence about Gintama. When it's funny, it is damn funny. But all the stuff inbetween the jokes kinda bores me. Maybe I'd like a dub better so I can follow it easier. And only if Patrick Seitz dubs Gin.

Also started Golgo13. He gets so much tail, it ain't funny.

Last Night: Villgust

Today: Heroman: The Abridged Series


Comments:

Starting with Villgust, I wanted to check it out of curiousity, because of the Villgust Gaiden's sprite rips. It had it's moments. OOC Monsters, a character AS fast as Sonic at full speed, and a badass furry. There's also in-jokes of other anime. In short: Very clean animation, a (flowing) comedy/adventure anime, accurate game-based anime, pip-pip and all that.

Now onto Heroman: TAS. I never watched the origional, which I plan to check out sometime later, I can say is.. wow, a moment where the authors decide to poke fun at the main's appearance for looking like that girl in K-ON!. It also uses the n-word, which I think the YGO: TAS might also have too. It doesn't make sense sometimes (mainly, again, haven't watched it yet, opinions on the ACTUAL anime will come later).

Anyways, I started Bleach and Black Cat I'm NOT regretting it, so far so good. Also caught up on HOTD, Takeshi was a badass with that motorcycle.

Zeta Gundam is now my anime priority.

..Why is it so amazing? At first, I knew I'd get into it eventually but was all like 'c'mon, you can't just throw a new cast of characters at me and expect me to care about them so early on', but around about episode 10 I've become really engaged in the whole thing.

I just like it how it's essentially a sequel to the original series but still gives enough space for it to act on a stand-alone basis. In fact, it's actually better than the original series. It's as if the upper production team, or whatever relevant circumstances, actually decided to listen to Tomino and not force in as many super-robot-genre elements as possible.

And the animation quality is amazing, especially for the early eighties. Can comeone please tell me why in roughly ten years time as with Gundam Wing, the animation quality got significantly worse? I mean, the battles and cinematography in Zeta just astound me. Wing, and even later ones like Turn A and maybe even Seed look sorta' bad by comparison.

Wing's animation I can deal with. Seed however, just took a turn and it probably was the same animation team who animated Code Geass.

Watching Code Geass: R1 via Bamco's Youtube account, in japanese with english subtitles. Episode 4. It will be awhile until Youtube fully loads the episode.

EDIT: While this may be another wartime anime with mecha and sci-fi generes thrown into the soup, I can still hold my opinion that CG has a pretty chaotic plot. I could (barely) get the idea what each character has a role for. Nethertheless, know at least I now know that Suzaku's (Mr. Brown hair origionally) the Naiive tool.  8D

Let's see. I've started Canaan and Ichiban Ushiro no Daimaou. The latter I'm sure to enjoy (I can't get enough of Junko's rear end), but I have some reservations for the former. I've had a bad relationship with the Girls with Guns genre. Canaan seems to be faring better than Noir and Madlax so far. Hope it stays that way. I'm also impressed with the dub for it. A couple of the VAs are acting out of their comfort zones. And they're doing well.

Gundam 00, first season;

At first I was like 'I'm here to watch Gundam, not post 9/11 ******** and then 'I would care about this anime more if there were less characters' and then in the end I was like 'Oh. Oh. This.. That was really quite good'. I actually cared about the characters in the end and that is always a good thing.

Then I watched some SEED and in comparison to 00 it's absolute drivel.

Still watching ZZ. And I started on some Space Runaway Ideon, sorta' because of its reputation in relation to Hideaki Anno.

Gotta say that my favorite from the Macross series is Macross: Do You Remember Love? My least favorite is Macross Plus (didn't bother with watching Macross II).

Let's see. I finished Canaan. Very good, lived up to my expectations of a Girls with Guns show. Too bad it's only 13 episodes, though. And I'm getting towards the end of Ichiban Ushiro no Daimao. The plot got really absurd now, really messy, but at least they're not cramming it into 2 episodes. I'm still being entertained, but maybe I have a higher tolerance for this stuff, so I can't recommend the show. I will recommend the opening song, though. It's really good. And I've finished the first seasons of Panty and Stocking and High School of the Dead.

Amazing in almost every way, and needless to say, LEAGUES better than that "Endless Eight" mess. Music is fantastic and has pretty good character development (namely Nagato and Kyon). I'll probably rewatch it again later.

(BTW, the MAL user interface seems to be non-responsive at times. Does anyone else have that problem?)

Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?
Post by: Satoryu on February 07, 2011, 08:25:32 PM
Let's see. I finished Kaichou wa Maid-sama. The final episode was a bit of a letdown, but I sure enjoyed the ride there. All in all, I really liked it.

I'm taking a look at Koihime Muso. From reading a rather vague description, I was expecting the show to be another Queen's Blade. It's not; it's much more tame. At least so far. I know the OVAs are all fanservice. Disregarding that, it looks like a show you can actually put on TV. Hyakka Ryoran Samurai Girls, however, that is more like Queen's Blade. Girls in trampy revealing outfits and getting into sword fights. Lots of nudity too, but of course I'm watching the TV version. At least the censorship is creative. I'd much prefer this show's ink blotches over the blinding lights other shows use. Even so, I don't understand why only the TV versions of shows like this are shipped over when they're licensed. There's no way in hell these shows will ever air on cable, they'll be only on DVD and on demand, so what's the problem? Hyakka Ryoran pushes the envelope as it is. Seriously, I'm shocked the part in the opening where Hanzo licks Sen's leg wasn't covered up. What, licking a leg is okay, but going tongue-to-tongue on the Orgy Bus in Highschool of the Dead isn't? I hope Sentai Filmworks actually got the DVD version of Kampfer. Seriously, there's nothing wrong with those swimsuits.

I also saw a couple episodes of Nyan Koi. I am not a cat person in the least, but the show is actually quite funny. And I'm expecting this to turn into a harem rather quickly, but that part of the show was surprisingly absent early on.

Finally for now, there's Hell Girl Three Vessels. The show is becoming a parody of itself at this point. The scares are more comical, and I think the setup is absurd. As is the transformation sequence I'm expecting to show up in every episode now. There's only so many times I will stand to see Hell Girl hatch out of a cocoon growing from a girls back. If she would say "I'm inside you" more often to her, though, I'd laugh my ass off every time.

Apparently finished an ep of Kore wa zombie desu ka. All I gotta say is, what's up with all these bullshit plot twists popping about lately? I coulda' swore that white knight mute was the serial killer, but turns out she isin't. And apparently has the hots for the main lead while the others still treat him like crap. Add the fact the Literal Doberman mentions a guy in the shadows that we can barely see his shilouette.

Remember those "Monster of the Week" guys they've been killing? Well, they were just trying to do their job and escort the dead to hell, plus those few eps wasted on lighthearted Zombie Bowling. >.>

Eh, guess this shows I'm probably not a fan of this type of stuff, so I should stop watching this before it goes down the PSG route and takes a [parasitic bomb] on the viewers.
Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?
Post by: Satoryu on February 10, 2011, 07:22:22 PM
I really should take my advice more often and wait about four or five episodes before judging an anime. Based off the first two episodes of Koihime Muso, it seemed innocent enough. Well, I have four episodes under my belt, and yeah, things get sexy. And kinda weird in the case of licking an armpit. And there ain't any censoring on this one, so yay nips. So I was wrong in that you could put it on American TV, but it's still no Queen's Blade yet. There haven't been titties popping out during fights yet, for one thing.

Kore wa Zombie Desu ka? - Three girls, one boy. Seems like a general harem anime. Only it's got zombies, necromancers, vampire ninjas, and demon hunting in it. Oh, and let's not forget the crossdressing. No. It's not Rosario+Vampire.

Eiken - Yeah, I might "accidentally" forget about this one. It's just way overkill. I mean, lolis with breasts larger than your entire torso. Yeah, everyone loves that.

FullMetal Alchemist: Brotherhood - ...Bloody.

Pandora Hearts - As epic as always.

You were really hoping that this season's generic harem anime would be anything but a generic harem anime?
It had potential, although the main character just turns into Keitaro. Although...

The English dub of Highschool of the Dead started up. I think they're going about it the right way. The language is more colorful, there are at least three F bombs in the first episode alone, and there's hammy parts that just seem appropriate. And it's not the usual Sentai Filmworks subjects in the lead roles either, save for Monica Rial as the nurse. Hell, I've never heard of Takashi's actor before this show.

I'm giving Trigun a rewatch. I'm halfway through. After that I have a bunch of box sets on queue. And there's a bunch of on demand stuff. Only new show is Needless, which isn't too bad.

Was watching that for a while. I had to force myself to continue through it for the most part, unfortunately. Up to episode 4, and will watch another episode to decide if i should drop it or not.

Also watching Gosick. Not too bad, but i wish they would pick up the pacing a bit.

The Trigun anime was already good enough and followed the plot to some extent. I actually prefer the way it leads through events as opposed to the manga (which is also good, just not as goood, IMO). Badlands Rumble was exactly what we needed. Stuff that doesn't fit in the anime, but what the hell, it's amazingly good anyway.

Oh don't get me wrong I liked the Trigun anime. In fact it was the first 'serious' anime that I watched (dubbed as well) and I had loved it~ But there were always these little things I didn't really get.
I later read the manga and things make more sense after completion and
[spoiler]
Awww man Wolfwood's manga death was ;A;
[/spoiler]
I think overall the manga was more satisfying that and I'm weak to still images and moar ax crazy!Legato so I'd like to see it done if only for the epic action scenes.

I didn't hate Badlands Rumble, but the plot was a paper thin excuse to bring back all that we loved. It worked, but I still want my completion >O

Also, lusting for the 90s? My my, don't we sound old.
I will agree the moe crap we get nowadays is terribad though. You know, because KyoAni starts doing it and everyone else is following lead. And also story doesn't matter anymore because fanservice is more popular. :U

I lusted for the 90's because if I lusted for the 80's, people would call me old. >_> I guess you youngsters  are more whippersnappers than I thought.

And I liked the anime more, because it was simpler. The manga sometimes crashed and burned with some characters being more than they should have been. The anime kept everything neat and simple, and explained it all. That, and I don't really like the manga art much. Just like Hellsing, it's too confusing for me to tell what the hell is going on sometimes.

Badlands Rumble was perfect. It didn't mess with the perfect canon we have, and it gave us more of the same. The plot was more of the same of the first half of the anime, and it bore no relevance to the overall story. All in all, it's awesome.

Panel to panel transition during fight coreographies is VERY important. The best manga I've ever seen on this regard, was Battle Royale. It really had an amazing style when it came to that.

>_o I don't find either of those difficult to understand...at all.

To be honest, I find relying solely on action-to-action panels in action comics to feel a bit stiff and slow. Which is why I prefer manga better. There are a lot more aspect-to-aspect panels in Asian comics which can make the scene feel a lot more frantic.
In real life you don't watch things like a fly on a wall, right? The eye travels, and manga capitalises on this to shift the audience's focus in order to imply some things rather than show it. There are moments that are crystal clear, still.
Well...I don't really get your problem \(^o^)/

Comics rarely have action-to-action panels. Mostly, they have stills of battles, and sometimes, they have this kind of coreography which I'm showing you. But reading comics, you can see the whole thing animate in your head. Which is harder to do in all-over-the-place manga. See, it's easy to make comics heavily detailed and still with a crapload of frantic action, always moving.

Thing is, stories aren't supposed to be like real life. They're supposed to show you the various angles of things in the best way possible to comprehend the whole scenario around it, and everything that moves. If you have to look around and decode the pic a bit to figure out what kind of move they're doing, it's lost. It should be read as fast as the story is progressing.

1 still = 1 battle? Reeeeally?

'This kind of choreography' = Action-to-action.

Also, I'm not too sure about you, perhaps it's a personal thing, perhaps it's a cultural thing, or maybe it's just the difference between how people go about with life, but I never have to pause or think whilst reading either comics or manga.
And that is me.
But I prefer it when things work out more like the way it does for me irl. You know, immersion and all that?
That, and technically, a story is a metaphor for real life >_>

It's always action-to-action, every comic and manga is. The difference is making it clear how many of the actions are actually put in there.

It's more likely a personal thing, but actually, thinking is a way of understanding. You cannot possibly fully understand Watchmen without stopping to think at certain points, and exploring other words and panels. Decoding certain things is also a way to figure out what's going on. But action should never be stopped. And I think that manga like Trigun and Hellsing has some problems when it comes to transition-to-transition. It's probably my own problem with the really rushed art, but some stuff doesn't really seem to connect fully into the rest at the proper speed. How some characters got from one position to another don't really make full sense.

If it's not one still, then there are panel transitions. And that's what we're discussing, right? >_>a

Comics rarely have action-to-action panels. Mostly, they have stills of battles
Each panel is a still of something, but the space between panels is a transition. A transition can be of several classifications, the most popular in everything, being a action-to-action transition.
I'm using Scott McCloud's comic terminology for the record, as there isn't actually much else of a standard in the comic industry.

You have to think during exposition, but comic or manga, you don't think during action scenes, I believe we both understand this.
Now for me, if panel transitions in action scenes miss a small detail like a character shifting their stance or position, it really doesn't contribute much to me being confused. Frantic is frantic, we all miss little details when things move fast, I don't let it bother me.
If you leave out an important detail though, then yeah maybe one could get confused, like "where in the world did he get that BFG?" (Unless it's hammerspace played for laughs)

I don't like it when they show me everything that happens because I get bored.

EVERYTHING depends on the montage. If a panel fits directly the panel that comes after. My point is that some panels in Trigun and Hellsing do not. Things like changing a small stance don't bother me, but completely different actions that don't flow one towards the other, do. The art also makes it a bit hard to see what type of movement is being made on the single frame sometimes. That's pretty much the whole gist of it.

It's like two pieces of a puzzle that don't fit together. It doesn't "feel" right.

- Porco Rosso
- Ghost in the Shell
- Ghost in the Shell: Innocence
- Blood: the Last Vampire
- Ponyo
- Laputa - Castle in the Sky
- Wonderful Days (it was the first time I saw a Korean movie, it was quite nice)
- Perfect Blue
There was also free green tea, free sushi, kendo show, go, mahjong, drawing, calligraphy, mini-lesson of Japanese, posters, and 2 contest. All of this for mere ~20$. My ass still hurts (come on, 9 movies in 2 days), but I can't for the next one!

Well, finished the first episode. I have no other way to describe this than completely random.

Oh yeah, I also caught up with Madoka. It was pretty good actually, you guys should watch it too. I mean, just look at this guy, how can you say no to such an adorable thing

What, really!? Too bad this series is on hold indefinitely. I really wonder how it will end since
[spoiler=Really, its big spoilers if you haven't seen it.]most of the Puella Magi have died. Seeing as the timeline where its just Madoka and Homura fight failed, I bet its going to end the same way.[/spoiler]

I'm pretty sure it resumes this month, probably this week even.

[spoiler]Homura does what Kyoko did and Madoka is left all alone. That, everybody dies, or the fan speculation that Walpurgist whatever is actually Homura ends up being true and she somehow defeats it just to turn into it herself[/spoiler]

Being the author it is I don't expect anything happy at all.

On another note, just finished:
Asura Cryin' 1&2: Really, I understood the whole anime until near the end, put hat shows how good it was if it can keep your interest until then.
Dragon Crisis: I am a sucker with anything Dragon related. It was good series with nice character development that at least outdoes other harems. :P

Watching the first episode of Nichijou right now.

Well, apparently crashing with a boy on the street triggers a gigantic explosion, who knew? The opening is pretty fun and random, who doesn't love a girl with a machine gu-wait, do the credits say "Hyadain"? As in THE Hyadain? Holy [parasitic bomb] o__O

Yup, this is the new Azumanga Daioh.
But yeah, Hyadain does the OP. The weird thing is that Hyadain was actually a pro before he got into the doujin scene with his remixes and stuffs. But he got so famous as a doujin musician that he's much more well recognised as Hyadain than as himself. Lots of doujin musicians actually 'go pro' by starting off doing anime theme songs and such (eg. IOSYS and Merry) but Hyadain was already pro and now he's 'going pro' as his doujin persona and...yeah it's weird. I found it so weird when my friend told me.

PS: He didn't use to sing though, so I guess that's a plus.

Finished Koihime Musou. It's silly, there's boobs, but the action isn't very exciting at all. The show just kinda felt empty overall. And then there's the two Shin Koihime Musou seasons, which I imagine will just be more of the same. Meh, I'll watch them if I'm bored.

Finished rewatching Welcome to the NHK. It definitely deserves a high rank on my anime Top 10. I recommend it to anyone who considers themselves an anime fan. It's very telling. And this was actually the first time I heard the last 6 episodes or so dubbed. I may give him a lot of [parasitic bomb] sometimes, but Chris Patton is incredible in this series.

Also checking out Akane Iro ni Somaru Saka. I wasn't sure at first, but I kept following the 5 episode rule, and I'll stick with it. In the beginning it was kinda dull to me, but things are starting to get better now. The character development is certainly helping.

Let's see..

Yesteray was anime so.. Half an ep of Zombie (Spoiler Alert! Hellscythe leaves the party.. for now), following a sampler of FLCL (The OVA with the burn't-down school). Day before that was a Ghibli film Pom Poko (Like all Ghibli films, I highly recommend it!). That has got to be one of the highlights of anime for this week. Monday was an random anime short (forgot the title). Now for Tiger & Bunny (IF I ever get to it..).

For the Wolerine anime it was meh, in my opinion. 3rd time a Marvel character has gone to Japan though, I think it's getting old. >.>
And usually I end up watching anime anyway from the kitchen while getting a sandwhich, sometimes it gets distracting.

And I've now seen up to Episode 6 dubbed of Highschool of the Dead. It's creative take on the script has officially won me over. One line in particular in ep6. I'm not going to spoil it, but it's kind of like Kyon's "Super Size Me!" in the Haruhi dub in that it's American popculture and you don't see it coming at all.

Post by: Akamaru on April 23, 2011, 08:53:33 AM
Hi
[spoiler=Ending for Series of MSMM]So instead of witches, there are demons stemmed from the curses of the world. Madoka erased the existence of witches, meaning all the Puella Magi that have became Witches, were erased (including Sayaka). This also means the Puella Magi simply disappear if their time is up, I think? Finally, There will be a second series for the kickass way that Homura decided to appear after the credits, in order to maybe save Madoka... My hypothesis.[/spoiler]

Does it sound right to you...?
Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?
Post by: Solar on April 23, 2011, 09:27:46 AM
[spoiler=Other people's interpretation that I agree with]Madoka pretty much becomes a force of nature/a moe loli version of the grim reaper for magical girls and retcons history so that no magical girl ever turned into a witch by purifying and disappearing their soul gem before they become a witch and die. Becaue of that she retconned herself out of existence too so nobody really remembers her other than Homura. The new fixed timeline is overall better and magical girls don't suffer as much and actually get to fight for what they believe instead of pretty much just being cattle. In the ending scene, Homura is pretty much at the end of her life (notice corrupted wings), which is why she finally hears Madoka again, they're about to reunite.[/spoiler]

Also, I demand fanart of Cleopatra's, Queen Himiko's, Joanne d'Arc's, and Anne Franks magical girl forms >:O

I guess I was wrong after about Sanae in After Story. Same actress still. Her voice just sounded off in the first two episodes. It got better in the third. HOTD is done. I've also watched the OVA. Good lord, that OVA. It's [tornado fang]ing nuts. Finished Akane Iro ni Somaru Saka not too long ago. Yay incest! Or is it? The subs weren't exactly clear on that.

I've also been watching Birdy the Mighty: Decode this week, trying to finish it before it expires from Hulu. It's very good, much better than I was expecting. Considering what the main character wears, the show has quite a lot of taste. Sex appeal is most of the time an afterthought.

I'm also going to take a look at Angel Beats dubbed and the simulcast of Tiger and Bunny. And though it's not exactly anime, the new Voltron cartoon is tonight. I'm genuinely curious about that.

FFFpeeps (http://fffansubs.org/?cat=282)? You should probably get around to it before you get to the second season's fifth episode, since things that happened in the OVA have to do with that episode's plot.

As of now, i'm sorta just skipping around different shows. I've mainly been watching Hanasaku Iroha, which isn't too bad. It's not original by any means, but it's fairly well constructed in story and character development. Some of the "surprise" plot points can be spotted a mile away and sometimes drags on for too long. I do enjoy watching it in general nonetheless.

But aside from that... no anime right now.

Watching the dub of Demon King Daimao. It has some problems. The script is weird at times, not just poor wording but grammatical errors once in a while. I've heard a few occasions where Akuto's full name was spoken last name first. It's got pronunciation problems too, but what else is new for Sentai Filmworks? I swear, whenever there's an e, they never get the word right. In this show for example, instead of Eiko, they say it like Aiko. But the biggest blemish is Kena's voice actress. She's flat out terrible. Horribly miscast for the role, and it almost sounds like English wasn't her first language. It reminds me too much of Bible Black's dub. And not in a good way. It's a shame, cause the rest of the dub is very good so far.

Also just finished Angel Beats. It was really good. You can tell it was shorter than it was planned to be, but unlike most 13 episode anime, the pacing felt right. The ending didn't feel rushed at all.

And I'm watching Maria Holic Alive. It is [tornado fang]ing hilarious, just like the first series. I could really use a rewatch of the first series, though, cause everything in the second overlaps with the first.

It's amazing how suddenly everyone is taking this show so seriously.

Though I think I'm misunderstanding something here. Akihisa's whole thing is to be retarded as [tornado fang], so why is everyone raging when he does something retarded as [tornado fang]?

Did I miss something here?

To be honest I think I missed something too.

I think people are mainly pissed because they decided to show episode 8 before this one.

That and a lot of people don't like Himeji for being a "Useless plot-device moeblob with no personality."

blame /a/.

The only thing similar to GX is that the characters go to school... and they DON'T learn how to play cards there. It's a normal school.
Main character is a [tornado fang] up. He loses so often, it's just funny.
Overall Zexal is heaps better than GX.

Tomorrow I'll finish 2nd Raid, then I'll probably start Maria Holic Alive and check to see if Baka Test Ni ep 11 has subs yet.
 
After that.... I'll need suggestions.

For the Meantime no Madoka, probably because I'd rather get done with series I've already mostly finished or want to get sequels (MH Alive) out of the way. On a tight schedule, y'know.

I started knowing it too late to even to watch/read it or have much interested in One Piece.

Those many many episodes and chapters had me stop from trying to get interested in it, or rather...it creeped me out to even try.  Im just not strong enough/too lazy to read the whole thing....and....the manga's art is kinda blurry/scattered for my eye's to read.....orz

or probably just me don't like mainstreams shows/anime....

WELP-

Tried watching
Ika Musume 2nd-another continuation of a comic relief show to watch

-Fate/ZERO-I'm a noob in the Fate franchise, so i probably dont know much about it while watching it. Fate/Stay Night anime is just screwy or Im being plain dumb not understanding it.

-Nichijou-SLICE OF LIFE WITH MAXIMUM ANDRENALINE EQUIPPED

Done Watching
-Steins;Gate-Science Physic Logic+Time Travel+Time Loop+Final Destination, I'll probably read the VN later.
 
-Ao no Exorcist- Story presentation sometimes bad and sometimes good, and the ending is just...WTF is this [parasitic bomb]?

Still Watching
Dantalian no Shoka-...hmm....ok...loli arrogant tsundere.....cute....but  I got bored with it already....and....story is just slow....I don't even know how far it really went....didn't watch the last ep yet....

Haven't updated in a while. Let's see.

I finished You're Under Arrest Full Throttle and Maria Holic Alive. Almost done with the dubs of Demon King Daimao and Clannad After Story. Started Hidamari Sketch Hoshimitsu. And the X-Men anime started up on G4 last night. Wolverine looks a little off, but maybe that's just cause I'm used to the other anime Wolverine. At least it's Steve Blum this time. Storm's new look, though, holy [parasitic bomb]. After that they showed Viper's Creed. Don't know what to make of that yet.

Also watched Mardock Scramble. Kinda interesting, but the ending kinda confused me. Maybe cause I was starting to fall asleep 5/6 of the way through.

And I'm about a third of the way through MM!. The jokes get tired sometimes, but this is still a pretty funny show. The characters are the main draw. Everyone is [tornado fang]'d up someway or another. Sadists, masochists, voyeurs, crossdressers, incestuous mother and sister. It's mostly played for laughs, but there are some genuine serious moments where characters actually get to deal with their problems a bit. And the opening song is infectious. The hilarious gratuitous engrish helps.

Random as hell, and honestly not terribly funny. There were some scenes (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UDssbjT8MFc) here and there that made me chuckle, some will make you go WTF, but overall it's ok. Overly perverted, but not nearly as good as Kanokon.

Speaking of which I finished MM! No resolution to anything in the plot, but you know how these shows work. And I don't think there were enough shenanigans with Taro's mother ans sister. Still a funny show though.

I'm also checking out Ray the Animation and giving To-love-ru another shot.

Fate/Zero. I summarized what happened so far, and it's quite intresting how they handled the series' maturity without the series' titular characters so far. Around 05:25, I feel that was good enough, and to take a break. This anime feels long, but I'll adjust to it sometime when I get around to finishing it, I'm used to 05:00 being the halfway point in (most) anime, it's pretty long. (around 42:00 I belive for the first half at Anime44, I'd dread watching it on youtube with this string of parts!) (LORD) Kiritsugu was a good way to kick the episode off though.

After Many years of shunning it for no good reason other than intolerance for lots of talking in my TV shows when I was a kid, i've finally decided to start watching Gundam. Starting from the very beginning, eventually working my way up through what is available to me (Eventually I'll end up hitting Wing, when I can finally put my headache-filled adolescence of watching Toonami only to do something else because Gundam or a WB Animated Series, not just action series, came on and shortly after I miraculously got a [tornado fang]ing headache, can be put to rest.)

I should be more clear on what series I will be watching:
-Mobile Suit Gundam (Finished)
-Zeta Gundam (4/50)
-Gundam Wing
-G Gundam
-Gundam SEED
-Gundam SEED Destiny
-Gundam 00

I'll also be watching the OVA's:
-Char's Counterattack
-0080: War in the Pocket
-0083: Stardust Memory
-The 08th MS Team

I'll be updating this with my current progress periodically.

That's what I don't get sometimes about anime and it's producers. Gainax seem like heartless trolls until you watch their earlier work. Another western comparison is My Little Pony, due to similar reaction from fans and conception (in a sense of the formation of the production team, not the show itself), I wouldn't take it too seriously.

In other news, I just watched Fairy Tail last night. Latest episode felt like a total filler.. :\

Technically I've started a lot of shows, but I'm not even bothering to watch all of them because I'm lazy. Or the shows themselves are just plain boring (looking at you Kimi to Boku., whatever possessed me to start you I have no idea.)

What I'm actually currently watching is Fate/Zero, Persona 4 the Animation, Shakugan no Shana III and The iDOLM@STER (lol).

I'll get around to the others... eventually. Or maybe I'll just start something on my backlog instead, it's growing quite big.

K-ON! (1/24)
Madoka (3/12)
Oreimo (6/15)
Just looking at this list alone makes me want to punch kittens.

Anyway.
Steins;Gate might not be the best anime in existence, but... it's a VERY GOOD ANIME. And from what I see, it's also a good adaptation of the visual novel sooo...

I'm mainly going off of stuff that shows up on /a/ frequently, so apologies if this is kind of a [parasitic bomb] list. Hell if I forget about K-ON again i'm probably going to drop it.

Just Started Zeta Gundam, Apparently from what I've been hearing Episode 11 is blocked off by AnimeChannel on Youtube in the US (Despite the fact that they're using the English Dub.) And apparently Wing was available till they decided to make it private, Gundam 00 is the only other Gundam series available on Youtube at the moment. So Wing, G Gundam, SEED/Destiny, and the OVA's will have to wait until I can locate the Dubbed versions (I've started with dub so I'm not going to switch to Subs for no reason in the middle.)

Yeah, I have issues when googling things, mainly because I almost never find what I am looking for.

EDIT: Ah, this place is heaven for somebody who prefers dubs if they are available. Sure I have to download stuff (Not a big deal since I have the Storage for it, its the download times combined with a shitty internet connection that has a tendency to cut off larger downloads making me have to start from scratch every time.) But other than that this will do nicely.

Completed Trigun.

Pretty entertaining watch, although the beginning is boring, It gets interesting later on when you find out the source of Vash's ideals. The characters as a whole don't really leave an impression on me, I found Vash to be the only person to stick out in the entire series. Wolfwood was okay, and Knives was decent. The problem is they focused on Vash's personality and past too often, not leaving room for other characters to develop (Wolfwood was the only other person to change and question his choice of killing). For an anime created in the 90s, the quality is definitely passable and the unique "wild" western feel is appreciated. Overall, I gave the series a solid 8/10.

Along with that, I also completed Trigun: Badlands Rumble. The best thing going for it being the stunningly beautiful animation and detail. As expected from a modern Madhouse production (released 2010). An okay movie, but not nearly as enjoyable as the series. Sure, they captured Vash's personality to act like an idiot and flirt with beautiful women to no end, but the plot and characters undeniably felt boring and sloppy.

I will praise the staff for improving on the western-type atmosphere of Gunsmoke planet. The variety of people in the bars and in the streets have unique traits and quirks to them, which the original series lacked in. Not to mention Vash has a brand new outfit, although it technically makes no sense since this takes place during the series (unless this is an alternate version of the story). I gave it a 7/10. Loved that they maintained the charm from the series, but the terrible filler plot leaves much to be desired. I would've liked them to continue from where the series left off.

Now that those are out of the way, I've started Full Metal Panic, which is shitty so far...

Finishing up Macross Frontier.
Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?
Post by: Phi on January 02, 2012, 08:39:53 PM
I marathoned the rest of FMP. Basically, the only somewhat enjoyable character was Sousuke. I hated Kaname to death, seriously, she's one of the most annoying main characters I've seen. Sousuke has to put up with her [parasitic bomb] in every episode. From the story point of view, It's not like this show is trying to avoid the cliche. Same cocky "best friend" and female partner who has to put him in his place. Secret anti-terrorist organization using super-skilled teenagers.

But even with the cliches, an anime can still be well developed and climatic. Unfortunately, this was not the case with FMP. It all felt underwhelming and had a few episodes where I didn't give a [tornado fang] what would happened (like the paintball contest between Tessa and Mao). The ONLY battles I enjoyed were the conflicts between Sousuke and Gauron. Overall, average series, with a handful of decent episodes.

I moved on to FMP: The Second Raid to see if it improved on the first series, and so far, It doesn't disappoint. Animation is beautiful and fluid. Can't judge on story quite yet. But from what I've read about it, Second Raid is the superior series in every way.
Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?
Post by: Police Girl on January 02, 2012, 09:27:31 PM
So I'm gathering that you mainly didn't care for the High-School aspect of the series?
Yeah, Second Raid pretty much eliminates that and goes more for the serious military aspect. Which in my opinion wasn't a great move (I actually liked the High-School Comedy parts.) But Fumoffu took care of the silly aspect of the show so it wasn't really needed (or practical since TSR is only 13 episodes long)
Chances are if they actually put more development into the Whispered storyline the first series could've been more intresting (And Kaname would've had an actual purpose outside of "Tacked on Love Interest who is not very loveable"), but it seems that they completely dropped it with few mentions of it later on (Second Raid... IIRC they only mention it once.)

And the only "Teenagers" in Mithril are Sousuke and Tessa, Maybe Kurz (Young adult, maybe?), but Mao isn't, and the rest of the staff look to be 30-50.

Shame they didn't try and adapt any of the other books in the series, I would've liked to see the rest (As lets face it, Mecha action really doesn't work without motion.).

Anywho, putting all series I'm currently watching (Re-dropped K-on since I'm never going to remember to watch it.) on hold till I finish FSN.
Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?
Post by: Phi on January 04, 2012, 02:43:14 AM
To me, It seemed that the first series was primarily High School "romance/comedy", and secondary militaristic fighting. And that was a problem for me. Granted, I can't deny that some situations were amusing.

Yeah, Second Raid pretty much eliminates that and goes more for the serious military aspect. Which in my opinion wasn't a great move (I actually liked the High-School Comedy parts.)

The complete opposite for me. I finished up The Second Raid, and I loved how much more mature and rooted it was from its predecessor. Kaname disappeared for half the series, which was a huge plus, although she was somehow made more tolerable than before. The action was fantastic, the darker atmosphere was appreciated and the music was solid. I especially liked the contradictory orders given to confuse that traitor.

The comedy aspects actually made me laugh, and there wasn't a surplus amount like in the first series. THIS sequel right here is how it should have started off. The direction and script writing is fantastic, much better than the less-than-great FMP. Second Raid seemed to take a more focused direction to keep you hooked throughout.

Quote
(And Kaname would've had an actual purpose outside of "Tacked on Love Interest who is not very loveable"), but it seems that they completely dropped it with few mentions of it later on (Second Raid... IIRC they only mention it once.)

That [sonic slicer] had so many chances to tell him. The dude gave up on the world when he thought Gauron had killed her, then she comes marching in "from the dead" with assaults? Not to mention the series ends with Sousuke asking her what she was about to tell him back in China (when she was about to confess), replying with "it's nothing".

Regardless, Second Raid was superb. I loved almost every minute of it. There's still some mysteries that need answering though, like who that black-haired woman with the binoculars was (last episode), among a couple others. I hope they make a sequel, TV or movie would be fine.

Don't get me wrong, I really enjoyed Second Raid. But I missed the High-School Comedy part, needless to say Fumoffu took care of it so I can't really be all that sad about it. :P

And the Music has always been solid with FMP, TSR is no exception.

Almost done with FMP Fumoffu. I'm surprised how funny it turned out to be, it's more creative than the comedy aspects of the main series.

Started two other anime: New Prince of Tennis, and Seitokai Yakuindomo (OVA).

Haven't seen the previous Prince of Tennis series in ages, but anime has a way of even making TENNIS a high-speed, action packed super sport. Seitokai Yakuindomo gave me quite a laugh, with the sheer amount of sex jokes and randomness, the OVA fairs no differently.

Watched Episode of Bardock not too long ago. It was pretty meh actually.

Also finished Ray the Animation. It was good when it was a medical drama, but when the Maximum Clonage business came to the forefront and there was no miracle surgery, it was not interesting at all.

Checking out Yokuwakaru Gendaimahou. Not too bad so far, even though the episode order was all over the place at first. And not like Haruhi. It was bouncing from one arc to another and back.

Princess Resurrection got a dub, which pisses me off cause I bought the sub only DVDs a year and a half ago figuring it would never get a dub at that point. Well, lesson learned, be patient. The dub ain't bad so far, on Epsiode 6. Not going to win anyone over, but I like simple but effective dubs.

Finally, I'm giving Canaan a rewatch.

Everyone sounds better, and the voices (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rqO2_qRFHjI&feature=relmfu) seem to fit better with the action (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rtjphOOmasY&feature=relmfu) (the links are spoilers, but they are the best examples I can give). Same goes for the first FMA anime, FUNimation is just that good with choosing voices.

Let's see. Still watching the Princess Resurrection dub. Also watching the dub for Infinite Stratos. I'm really liking it, even though Cecelia's British accent is so phoney baloney. I'm also giving Pani Poni Dash a rewatch. Catching a lot of jokes I didn't before. It's such a funny show.

Checking out Akikan. The character designs are terrible, I'm just curious where the plot is going. The characters themselves are pretty funny. Also watching the new Lupin III. The artsy look of the show is really nice. And I was floored when after watching the first episode of this and Queen's Blade Rebellion back to back, Lupin had the higher BPM (Boobs per Minute). I mean, it is all about Fujiko, but wow she like never wears anything.

I watched And Yet the Town Moves all the way through. It was fun at first because the style of humor reminded me a lot of Maria Holic. But after 4 or so episodes it "normalized", sorta.

Couldn't blame you for not liking Oreimo, slice-of-life really isn't everyone's cup of tea. Though I am curious on why you find GW more enjoyable now rather than during your childhood. I'd argue that the animation didn't really age very well and is kinda unpleasing to look at. Nostalgia I guess? Just curious, please don't hurt me.

Currently, I'm watching through Hyouka and Sankarea; The latter is surprisingly good even with a batshit retarded concept, proving that good script and execution can save even the dumbest ideas. The former, the last time I raved about an anime you guys ripped me a new one; so instead of going through the motions again, I'll simply say that I like it, but you don't have to.

I tended to get headaches when watching TV when I was a kid (Mostly during "Action" shows), that and I found Wing to be really boring , I wanted an action show and every time I had the chance to watch it I got stuck with lots of talking (Same deal with DBZ, though replace talking with "Goku in the glass tube for 2 weeks"). Thing is I never liked shows that were all talk and nothing else, political intrigue does not a good show make when trying to grab the attention of a 9-year old. Wasn't till I watched Geass that I realized I could actually enjoy mecha, so I figured that I would give it another try.

And I never said I didn't like Oreimo, it just was very short with very little going on. I'm still going to be watching the second season because why the hell not. Also because I like Kyouske and Ruri, they're really the only good characters IMO.

Other than backlog, I'm not watching anything new this season.

Other anime I'm watching are:

Tari Tari: Once again, don't want to be torn apart by your critical thoughts. I like it, and I find the scenarios interesting.

Sword Art Online: I've haven't been THIS disappointing by an action anime since Guilty Crown, I didn't think that was even possible.

Kokoro Connect: REALLY underrated; the drama is well done and it is at the very least intriguing to see where the series will go.

DISCLAIMER: This is my opinion and should not be subjected to meticulous criticism. Why am I saying this, you guys are pretty volatile when it comes to opinions. (Translation: You guys really like assuming I'm wrong.)

And now that I've projected this disclaimer I'm going to be mauled just for the sake of irony. Fortunately, I brought this!  :cookie:

I dunno about Omega, but Lost Canvas is goddawful.

I watched it with a friend recently, and I think that six or seven episodes in we said [tornado fang] THIS [parasitic bomb] and just watched the just as goddawful last episode.

Then we moved on to Fate/Zero. Which we yet have to finish.

Anyway, out of the current airing anime, we started watching Ixion Saga, which is awesome, and if it keeps up wih how the first episode was, then we are in for a good time.

Which reminds me, I need to see if there has been any new episodes.

I actually watched that for the first time last month, believe it or not. I really enjoyed it, despite its age and the cheesiness. I tried watching Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam afterwards, but I just couldn't get into it. I [tornado fang]ing hated Kamille. So I stopped and decided to watch MSG: The 08th MS Team. That series was really cool. I wish there were more series that have similar tone and style(?) like 08th MS Team.

So because I'm [tornado fang]ing bored, and I really enjoyed Tron's arc in YGO Zexal, I'm rewatching some episodes of that.
And I'm doing it raw, in fact, most of those episodes I never seen with subtitles.

Because I [tornado fang]ing still understand a lot.
I can't read japanese for [parasitic bomb], but I seem to understand a lot, when I hear it. Though I can't really speak it either. I don't know how to explain it.
I even began making my own subs for some of my favorite moments, and with small help of a dictionary I'm doing quite good.

In any case...

Tron was such a wonderful villain, he made the show enjoyable even for people who [tornado fang]ing despised Zexal/got bored with Zexal.

I mean, in one episode he basically told his son (IV) who was dueling against one of the main chars (Shark), that he pretty much gives no [parasitic bomb] about him, that he's most useless out of his kids, and in general he never believed in him. Then he went on to help out Shark, win the duel.
His trolling was entertaining as all [tornado fang].
And all of that is given to us in a package of a little boy with strange metal mask on his face.

Just look at this smug [chameleon sting]er.

watching what few episodes are out for Initial D Fifth Stage right now.

I'm liking the song choices so far and uh yeah. Episode 4 got a bit dumb in that they suddenly brought in this concept of the lead character Takumi having these rare occurrences of getting crazy boosts in speed that even the wise leader guy just simply says are impossible. It's presented visually as a small teleport pretty much. I am really not sure what to think about it. Also they call it the "Fujiwara Zone" after Takumi's surname and I just cannot take that seriously. If it were anything but a street racing anime with plenty of in depth technical discussions then this probably wouldn't bother me much at all.

Forgot to put it here a few days ago, but I wrapped up Sword Arts Online. Was it great? Nope. OST was okay but for the most part and the plot was a bit shaky, even towards the end Fairy Dance arc. But comes with most anime is the characters, and I find them forgettable for the most part, even with the new ones down the road. I think the art direction.. swear I've seen it before but oh well. It was amusing when they went the Rockman.EXE route and made any refrences to blood crimson data strains, so that was clever. So yeah, if you are into MMO anime I'd say give this one a go. If not, I'd say there are better ones than this out there. Givin' it a 4/10.

ZnT is actually a pretty sub-par anime but I do like the plot. Plus the last episodes of every season do end up getting pretty interesting thus far.

I'd read the Jojo manga but I can't stand it's art. Pretty much the only seinen with decent art are Vinland Saga and Vagabond.

One of my Xbox LIVE friends got me into Zone of the Enders: Dolores, i, so I've been watching that while I'm desperately waiting for my WAY overdue Christmas present: a Limited Edition copy of Z.O.E HD Collection my Xbox 360. At least can get into the Z.O.E universe more. Aside from that, I've been trying to watch Magical Pokaan and Smile Precure. I need to get more episodes of Precure since I'm behind on the newer episodes that's been coming out.

As of late, Natsuyuki Rendezvous, started Baccano! and Highschool DXD and just kinda didn't continue. I just stop watching anime randomly, I prefer series' no longer than 20 or episodes.

Watched some old school Hokuto no Ken and a little bit of the new stuff as well. Definetly respect the original.

Wandering Son aka Hourou Musoko is amazing. I love Sarashina.

My opinion of it still hasn't changed from when I first saw it. I would have liked it more if the tone was more consistent rather than jumping from one end of the spectrum to the other, but I still enjoyed all of it for the most part.

I'm going to hold off on Unicorn until it's finished. I'll still need something to watch on the daily commute though, so I might skip off to Victory Gundam if I want to stay UC, or I might just diverge off into AC territory for a change.

I started watching this when it started to aired on [adult swim] but since my brother has Netflix I could marathon if I want. I'm watching Witchblade and Squid Girl (just started actually) well. I need to get back to watching The Slayers again.

Well, I mean more minor ones. I know what a lot of people say about it, but I'm not in full agreement about those.

Most of my grievances are not there in the novels apparently, having looked into it in the past. My memory could be fuzzy though, it's been a long time since I've watched these.

Although I still question some of Char's actions, but the hints are clearly there all through Zeta. Plenty of easy to miss callbacks in CC, actually.

DVR Backcatalog cleanup is going smoothly.

Binged through every episode of Tenchi GXP that I had on there. I think I had 17 episodes or so.

Hoo boy, this series is hysterically bad. Not that I don't like some of the characters, its just that its too goofy for its own good.

But what can I say, I like goofiness. And naturally I like the women, because that's really the only thing this series is going for.

Next on the schedule is Eureka 7, I stopped watching mainly because the series so far is Renton being shat on by Gekko State, I've got 24 episodes of this and 4 more episodes of Samurai 7 then I'm completely done with my backlog and I can watch everything else as it comes.

Well just finished watching Elfen Lied on Netflix, I think it was somewhat okay, nothing spectacular (other than gore factor). The anime's adaptation ending was too much of a cliffhanger though...

[spoiler=Elfen Lied anime ending / manga details]I don't get how some find it tear-jerking; the anime's ending seemed more bittersweet than a tear-jerker. Lucy ended up fighting Mariko, Kurama's biological daughter and lost but survived though she lost one of her horns. Kurama shows to spend some time Mariko before they died in each others' arms. Later Lucy and Kouta spend last touchy moment together before Lucy sacrifices herself to fight off the remaining soldiers and lost her other horn. I'm guessing a day or so past since Lucy gave herself to save Kouta and Nana was able to live with Kouta and the others. Apparently someone shows up at the door, but I can guess it was Lucy since Wanta, Mayu's dog, recongized her. I'm gonna assume Lucy "died" but Nyu still lives on since that seems like a likely case.

I remember back when I was reading scanlations of manga, Lucy lost her horns at some point in the story but they grew back later. The anime also left the implications of the guy running the facility Lucy escaped from wanting to usher in "a new world" business for dicloni because revealed himself as one too and the manga might of carried on with that but it's been a long time since I read it I'll have to restart reading it from the beginning again.[/spoiler]

I heard Lynn Okamoto made a spiritual successor of sorts to Elfen Lied, I might check it out. There's still some Z.O.E Dolores, i and Smile Precure! I gotta catch up on, among other series...

Adrenaline pumping goodness.

Anyway, The first episode is actually pretty damn good. Even had me cringe at a particular part at the ending. Apparently, it will really pick up soon if the manga is anything to go by. I cannot stress enough to watch this series in HD; HOLY [parasitic bomb] every single frame in this episode was [tornado fang]ing beautiful.

The Opening apparently goes with everything its hilarious(well not all). I'm in the same boat watching this good show.

Soul Eater
G Gundam
Yugioh Season 0
JoJo
Tiger and Bunny

I'm so up to date <_< I can't seem to find anything recent that excites me.

Also, WataMote (http://myanimelist.net/anime/16742/Watashi_ga_Motenai_no_wa_Dou_Kangaetemo_Omaera_ga_Warui!) just started airing, and I am excited to get into it as I read the manga

Haven't been keeping this up to date, have I? Well, I've just gotten around to G Gundam now. Here's a list of the Gundam I've watched so far in my journey to rewatch most of the series:

Mobile Suit Gundam
Zeta Gundam
ZZ Gundam
Char's Counterattack
F91
Victory Gundam
Turn A
08th MS Team
0080 War in the Pocket
0083 Stardust Memory
Gundam Wing (and Endless Waltz)
After War Gundam X

Leaving these to watch:

G Gundam (just started)
SEED
SEED Destiny
00 + movie
AGE

I'm waiting for Unicorn to be finished before I watch it, and I'm undecided on the rest. Not sure what's next after my venture through Gundam is done. Rewatching these has been interesting, in that some have held up better than others. My preferences still seem to lie with the UC stuff (particularly anything set between MSG and CC).

Yeah, I'm looking forward to Unicorn... whenever it's finally done :P

After War Gundam X wasn't too bad, as far as AU stories go. I think it got the shaft a bit with its smaller amount of episodes though, it was clear that they had more planned than what they could end up doing in the end.

I rewatched Excel Saga recently. Still hilarious. But the original Japanese audio doesn't hold a candle to the dub. ADV really had fun with that one, and it worked out for the better.

Started watching BTOOOM. Looks really cool. Reminds me of Gantz.

Watched Inu X Boku SS. The love drama parts were really sappy, but the comedy bits were great.

Also checking out Mysterious Girlfriend X and Dusk: Maiden of Amnesia. The former is [tornado fang]ing weird.

And there's also the obligatory Soul Eater on [adult swim]. I'm really enjoying it. I'm also watching One Piece mostly cause it's on before SE. It's okay, but I'm constantly reminded of why I dropped it before. It really takes a while for anything to get done.

Manga is better. Different humor even, less based on references and more on actual [tornado fang]ing comedy.
Though it took it like, I believe three to four volumes to truly go into overdrive of awesome.

Finished Sould Eater.

Meh.

I really enjoyed it, but the ending was incredibly anti-climatic and rushed. Also, I feel that Dr. Stein was severely underplayed. I was so invested in his past, and I loved his personality; which was why I was disappointed that they didn't explore his character more.

Maka is an irritating dumbass, Black Star is the embodiment of all the "hero" cliches you can think of, not sure where they were going with Soul (I can barely read his personality) and most other characters are forgettable.

The only people I really liked were Excalibur, Death the Kid, Dr. Stein, Medusa and Sid.

Pretty good show, but not without a fair share of disappointments. And as a Shounen anime, it's certainly much better than anything Naruto has shoveled out.

Well you have to keep in mind that FMA had two series. The first one sort of followed the Manga but they caught up too fast and that's why that one went to an original story and ending, because at least that was better than slowing the story down and either ending abruptly or just sort of stopping.

Who knows, maybe in a few years when Soul Eater gets closer to finishing or finishes we'll see another Anime for that.

Haha yeah, I watched both series. I'm a FMA fanboy, after all.

Honestly though, I liked the ending of the first series more than Brotherhood/manga. I think the ending of the first series left a far greater impact on me than Brotherhood. I know I'm in the minority in saying this, but it just gives me goosebumps every time I watch that ending scene.

[spoiler]Ed dying after seeing his father's younger/"true" face was brilliant to me. A dick move by Envy, but hey, when has Envy ever played fair? Conqueror of Shambala, on the other hand, had an ending that left much to be desired.

But I do have to give the creators credit for avoiding cliches. I don't think anyone expected Ed and Al to stay in the alternate world.

In fact, that's what I love about FMA in general; it's one of the most original/unique manga/anime you'll experience.

I'm watching a few things.

They're all on the backburner for the most part since I don't ever have enough time in my life to watch anything.

Soul Eater (Probably don't need to record anymore since I've got the whole series now.)
Tenchi GXP (Haven't watched the last two episodes yet, can do that whenever.)
SAO (I'd be a bit of a douche if I didn't form my own opinion of this.)
Eureka Seven (I missed an episode due to a recording guff so I can't really continue without watching it.)
One Piece (Both the first-runs on Toonami and the Backlog in DVD's. Both on Hold)
Sailor Moon (Just started the uncuts.)

Also have Eva 3.33 on hold, though I hear its [parasitic bomb] too.

Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?
Post by: Police Girl on August 14, 2013, 08:21:07 AM
It gets so terribly goofy.

I get that it was trying to be all grimdark and [parasitic bomb] but it was just stupid.

I only liked Homura because she's got kind of a neat style going on, Kyouko because I [tornado fang]ing love redheads and she was cute, and Mami because she had tits.

Sayaka is a [sonic slicer] and Madoka was just paper thin. Oh well, it was goofy fun when I watched it.

Anyway, I've only started watching SM because I wouldn't feel great about getting the figures for the show since the last time I had seen it was when I was in grade school and I don't remember anything from it.  -u-'

Same here. And yay we share the same opinion on how Sayaka is [parasitic bomb].

But I had enough of a good time watching it that I bought three, soon to be four, figures for it.

That's like the only reason I watch anime anymore, to justify buying stuff.

I think I have a problem.

I do think that Sayaka has the best Magical Girl costume but that's it.  Seriously that girl pretty much reinforced Homura and Kyoko's ideologies.
Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?

I liked some of it.

Didn't like other parts.

For example, I liked when Sayaka lost her Soul Gem.

I liked when Sayaka went insane.

I didn't like Madoka as a character some of the time, nor did I like her design as a Magical Girl. So-called "Ultimate Madoka" is bland as [parasitic bomb] design-wise. But she was harmless really. Which was really the problem, I didn't feel invested in her character enough to really care that she was some ultimate power. But maybe that's just how I saw the show. Despite the title I honestly believe Homura was the main character. The story was mostly about her and how she affected the universe around her with her time travelling.

I don't know, did you actually like the anime? There's nothing to be ashamed about if you don't like something and as for not playing the games, that's what an anime is usually supposed to be: an advertisement for the source material.

I find the anime to be great fun but like everything else in the world it's not for everyone.

If you did like it then yes, shame on you. Why would you want to miss such amazing humor such as this:

To be fair I actually don't mind the Outers (Maybe because I never really watched the series when they were in it), but they basically come in a package deal with Chibi, so I'd rather not even bother.
The goofy backstory that Chibi has is what really bugs me about her though, nothing says "Out of Ideas" more than "Lovechild of two main characters from the future who is an annoying twat and is given more focus than deserved."

There's so many flashbacks... so so many. Of all sorts. All over the place. Maybe I'm spoiled by the UC stuff, but the various series would have been able to survive without watching the ones that came before it. This one might be able to as well, if they took out all the freaking fluff of flashbacks.

It's just a symptom of the extreme laziness of the series. By now you've probably started to notice the same fight scene over and over again with the two mechs spinning around each other firing beams, then one chasing the other.

Though I guess SuperS focuses more on her so that one might be skipped.

At least read a deep summary of that season, because the beginning of Sailor Stars is quite related to the Dead Moon Circus and Nehelenia from SuperS. Even though it's kinda like a filler, I liked it. But do what you want.

I mainly have questions.

Why is everyone acting so stupid? (and this is compared to the previous series, where they weren't necessarily brilliant)
Why are there so many goddamn flashbacks?
Why are people not dying when they clearly should be?
As a bonus to that one, why are people who clearly died in the previous series still managing to be alive?
Why is everyone acting so stupid?
Why did they reuse so much animation?
Why did they reuse everything from the MSG-MSGZ era? (Even down to using Zakus... really?)
No really, why is everyone acting so stupid?
Why are they  acting like there's some type of newtype-ness at times, when there is none of that in the series? (They even use the frickin sound!)

I'm sure there's more, but man... what the hell. I did like some of the designs of the Mobile Suits, but... again, all the ideas are from elsewhere for the most part.

Meh, there's one I know for the first game, and one I know for the second game.

But I'm not sure how far the scanlations go, or how good any of the manga are.
Though I have no doubts they are better than the shitty anime.

Google Danganronpa manga, you'll find it.

OH. And if you have a good enough PC, you could try the emulator PPSSPP. It works firggin' perfectly with this, and many other games.
Or you could try it also on an Android device, because that emulator works on that too.

I thought the visual novel was localized (unless the translations suck).

The VITA port, yes. It's getting released outside Japan. The PSP version does not.

Plus, the VITA port in Japan also includes the second game, unlike the english release.
Though I wonder if the english release will have that whole "romance mode" thing that they added in VITA port.

You know how often adaptations are not faithful?

Well, this one is a strange case of "TOO [tornado fang]ing FAITHFUL" while at the same time being too fast paced, and skipping a lot.

In the game, you have quite a bit of time, to learn about the various characters. You can learn even MORE about them, if you do their special events, that earn you skills (which are ultimately useless, because the game is [acid burst] easy, but that's another story).

But the anime just basically throws that out the window. It's 13 episodes of fast paced [parasitic bomb], almost entirely copied from the game.

You know when I said "too [tornado fang]ing faithful", well... the thing is, it uses a lot of [parasitic bomb] from the game. And I don't know if that's just them being lazy, or trying to faithful but, [tornado fang].
They copy almost everything from the game itself.

The investigations however, are basically done in a super fast forward style. And during those investigations, a lot of the character interactions happen, in the game I mean.

THESE PEOPLE ARE IN SITUATION WHERE THEY ARE FORCED TO KILL EACH OTHER! AND YET THE ANiME DOES NO EFFORT TO MAKE ME CARE ABOUT THEM.
[parasitic bomb].

I know most of what I said centers around "muh chara interakshunz", but that's first biggest problem here.
The second being the stupid fast pace of episodes. 13 is clearly NOT ENOUGH.
And the third, but not last, copy and paste.

And that's all for my little rant.
I didn't even spoil anything, see? I'm good.

I guess that's a given, maybe I can find an LP of the game.

I believe there is one on Something Awful (Or the LP Archive).

It brought so much people to the board they ended up paywalling the LP board.

One of my friends decided we should all sit down every now and then and watch My Bride Is A Mermaid.

Gundam AGE Down... that's all of them now. I liked the designs of the Mobile Suits decently well, particularly the AGE-2 and AGE-FX.

Why do the newer Gundams like multicoloured explosions so much? Particularly Pink/Purple ones?

I decided what anime to start watching... now on ep 7 of Saint Seiya. Let's see how my memories of this show differ from the reality!

I have to say, this series does seem a bit lackluster in comparison to Brotherhood, but it's still entertaining as hell. I just wish it didn't have all this damn filler.

Post by: Blue Valkyrie on December 03, 2013, 11:25:47 PM

Off the top of my head (and by no means accurate), High Grades about 20$, Real Grades about 40-50$ (depending on the MS), Master Grades = 40-70$, and PG 100$ or more.

Not sure what the typical prices on them are, but a little much to randomly put down even on an awesome model.
Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?
Post by: Protoman Blues on December 03, 2013, 11:38:57 PM
Yeah, I've seen it for $57.

Which I'm totally willing to pay, cause I can't go back to HG's.
Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?
Post by: Blue Valkyrie on December 03, 2013, 11:42:31 PM
I don't mind High Grades really, nice and simple to put together and still look good. But yeah. no comparison to the Master or Perfect Grades. (never cared much for Real Grade though after the disaster that was RG RX-78)
Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?
Post by: Protoman Blues on December 03, 2013, 11:43:53 PM
The HG's just don't stand as well as the MG's. Of course, they've probably been improved since the original Wing models.

Post by: Blue Valkyrie on December 03, 2013, 11:58:05 PM

That movie is [tornado fang]ing trash.

I will say this: The main concept of it can be done in an interesting way, but in this case it wasn't.
It was boring, despite the pretty visuals the fight scenes [tornado fang]ing sucked. The music was managable, but possibly only because I have a soft spot for Kajiura.

Homura is a [parasitic bomb] character.
No, in fact, I'll go even further and say that everybody in Madoka is [tornado fang]ing terrible and leave it at that.

Honestly?

Ruri is a cool guy. He might seem like the guy who just does [parasitic bomb] to get people angry, but he's not without his rights when he does them. It's just that people seem to lose the true purpose of his "malicious posts". Or don't even notice it.

As for me, I don't care if I am "Better than this" or whatever crap.

This movie ruined my mood. I wanted to watch it, I actually got Ruri on it too. And it ruined the mood for both of us.

I thought to myself before watching it:

"Well it can't be THAT bad. I mean, since so many people like it, there must be at least something redeeming about it. That and it might even be fun and we'll get a laugh out of the stupidity."

Well, I sure as hell didn't have any fun nor did I laugh.
The same was true for Ruri.

IF you like it, that's great. I don't mind.
But if you like it and think it's a really good and well made movie? Then sorry, no. You're [tornado fang]ing trash too in my eyes.

And I'm not overreacting. It took me like an hour or two to finally start doing something after I watched this piece of [parasitic bomb].

You know, even if I knew in advance that everybody would come back to life I was still a little sad to see them all die. Its a good sign that a series gets you attached to its characters.

Starting R now, expectations are low because the first season was so enjoyable that I don't think the rest will live up to it.

I finished SAO.

Yeah, that got rather over the top at the end. I can kind of see why some people like it, the first arc at least, the second gets a little overboard with the (sort of) incest stuff and its overall a messily tossed together arc. But I guess it could've been worse. Not completely [tornado fang]ing awful like I was led to believe but its no masterpiece like people think it is.

The first OP is pretty [tornado fang]ing cool sounding at least.
Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?

I have no motivation to watch SAO after hearing about the "endless semen" thing.
Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?
Post by: Police Girl on January 17, 2014, 02:05:32 AM
Wasn't it me who brought that up?

I only started watching it because Toonami aired it and I have some unreasonable obligation to check out stuff that's either new or might be interesting.

But yeah, the 2 years of semen thing was something the author did indeed write and its something that people will use as a compelling argument as to why the series is no good. And to be fair, they're mostly right, the series has a few interesting characters, but the mains are the [tornado fang]ing definition of Mary Sue.

[tornado fang], I'd rather watch a series of Suguha just doing slice-of-life stuff and occasionally playing ALO for fanservice shots because despite the whole incest thing she was a much more developed character than Kirito or Asuna.

But again, its not the worst series ever made, or the worst series I've ever watched, but its not a [tornado fang]ing masterpiece.

This so much this.  That's what I like about G Gundam, heck maybe they could have expanded more about the politics and ethics around it too because that took a back seat pretty quick.  That was honestly interesting since for the first half of the anime they were fighting wherever they damn well please and didn't get in trouble since Gundam Fighters were above collateral damage.  Not to mention the people who were forced to fight in it even if they didn't want to.

Maria Holic got a dub. First episode sounds great. Didn't expect Kanako to be voiced by Cutey Honey though.

On the subject of Sentai Filmworks dubs, a recent trend with a lot of them is to address characters family name first. I really don't like that, it sounds really bizarre in English, especially when there are non-Japanese characters in a show as well and they're obviously referred to given name first. It was the worst in Campione, where the script actually used both orders interchangeably.

I see a lot more dubs using Japanese honorifics as well, which I also don't really like. I understand some don't translate very well into English, but what's wrong with just leaving some of them out? If they're used for some sort of gag, like in Bodacious Space Pirates or something, I guess I can give you that. But if they're just left in, I'm not a fan.
Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?
Post by: Police Girl on January 27, 2014, 01:26:41 AM
Basically their problem is they're doing too literal of a translation?

I can see how that would be annoying. Honorifics are nice and all but the [tornado fang]ing dub doesn't need them.

So I've started watching a couple new dubs, and they're for shows I would've never guessed would get dubs. First is Nyan-Koi, which is alright but it does the last name first thing I mentioned before. The other is MM!, which really blows my mind. At least the VAs seem to having a lot of fun with it. I've also been checking out Gatchaman Crowds. It's really out there, super weird and stylized, and barely has anything to do with Gatchaman. I'll keep with it to see just what they hell they're doing with it.

Wait until it gets to series 2 and when the anime goes through 3-6, it only gets better from there.

The final battle of Series 2 is just amazing.

Its only 26 episodes. Though the next season is coming out in the future and that'll be 26 episodes as well (But it'll only cover Part 3 as its a long one.)

Probably the same reason me and Clef did, just to say we watched it.  I still need to watch the last 3 episodes to be honest, it was okay but I just hated Sayaka being such an arrogant [sonic slicer].

[spoiler]My favorite part is still the part when Homura shot a bunch of holes into Kyubee and then his new body shows up and eats the old body.  Just so hilarious that Kyubee just casually eats it like whatever, it's pretty morbid too.[/spoiler]

oh well I've been away for a while anyways

I watched SAO due to someone else dragging me into it. I enjoyed the first 10 episodes or so, then it kinda went down after that.
Yeah, I have to admit that part of the reason I gave it a chance is that, after all the heckling I gave it and its Titanic counterpart, people who I looked up to actually said it wasn't bad, including DemoD+ who also noted the terrors of Episodes 15-25.

I actually had no idea there was going to be a season 2. Let's hope they don't actually go off of those last few episodes so much, eh?

Chaika's really good. Probably the first anime I've seen with no internal monologues in the middle of a fight.
Also the fights are pretty well handled visually so there's that.

Generally it's kind of like watching a movie or something. Atmosphere and scenes are handled a lot like something you'd see in, say, Harry Potter or The Hobbit.

Characters ain't bad either.

Go watch it.

Hitsugi no Chaika
One Week Friends
Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei
No Game no Life
Mushishi Zoku Shou
Ryuugajou Nanana no Maizoukin

Not sure if gonna continue:-
Soredemo Sekai wa Utsukushii
Black Bullet
Mekakucity Actors- not a fan of Kagerou Project, but whatever

Haven't really watched, just skimmed it through:-
Seikoku no Dragonar
Brynhildr in the Darkness

Dropped:-
Soul Eater Not-I regret watching this, they turned this into an utter terrible horrible abominaniated epic failed attempt moeshit.

Well, I wouldn't necessarily place it that high, but it's definitely an amazing adaption; possibly the most faithful adaption ever. It also has one of the most satisfying conclusions I've seen. Unlike Attack on Titan, it does deserve the praise it gets.

We did as a Random, which means we only show the first episode, though I think that might be licensed already so we probably can't watch it.  Though I have no idea what Shonen we're watching since I always leave at 9:00 pm.

So I watched the Mobile Suit Gundam movies, as well as Z Gundam A New Translation.

The MSG ones did a good job of hitting most of the important points of the series without relying on having previously watching the full series, while managing to cut out some fluff. I still enjoyed watching them.

A New Translation, on the other hand, felt kinda disjointed at times. There was parts that I felt like I wouldn't have known what was going on if I hadn't seen the series previously. This kinda also worked against me, since I felt like a lot of important stuff was left out. Then there was the new footage, which was just... jarring next to the old stuff, particularly in the latter movies.

I suspect that if ANT had a longer running time like the MSG movies did, it might have helped quite a bit. It would have given more time for stuff to be fleshed out, like the various meetings with Four for example. The new ending... I'm not sure how to feel about it. It kinda has a lot of repercussions that might never get addressed.

So did I! Even if the humor was rather hit-or-miss at the beginning it quickly improved after they left Shangirla, Judau was a really fun main character and I enjoyed the whole show thoroughly.
Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?
Post by: Protoman Blues on April 19, 2014, 08:45:06 AM
Judau is still my favorite main character Gundam pilot. He was actually optimistic & fun.

Yeah, it definitely improves once they leave the colony, but it's very solid.
Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?
Post by: Archer on April 19, 2014, 08:47:41 AM
One thing I liked about Judau is that he's not a very skilled pilot, sure he improves by the show but even at the end he doesn't really hold up to the likes of Amuro. Then again none of the pilots in the Gundam Team were all that good, I still remember that episode where they were all getting trashed by a Gelgoog and Judau had to save the day.
Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?
Post by: Protoman Blues on April 19, 2014, 09:08:26 AM
Oh yeah, I remember that one. But you're right. He improves, but he's no way as skilled as Amuro.
Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?
Post by: Archer on April 19, 2014, 09:10:09 AM
Well Amuro is bad example really, he's one of the better pilots in the whole series but I'm sure you got the idea.
Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?

Yeah, I did. Either way, I like Judau a lot.

All I really see in Kek la Kek is those incredibly retarded outfits. I keep bouncing between "fine, I'll watch it" and "I don't really see why".

I have to admit, there was no doubt I was going to enjoy it. I mean I did like PSG and this is the same guys for the most part. But yeah, its fun. Stupid yes, oh so stupid, but I like stupid.

Gotta say most of my enjoyment comes from Ryuko's Seiyuu. She's just got a good voice.

And as quickly as I started it, I've finished Kill La Kill.

Not gonna lie, it was stupid as [parasitic bomb]. But it was fun stupid. The plot was dumb, the costumes were embarrassing, the tone shifted from "Girl beats up students at school" to "Clothing is made from alien beings who want to make the earth explode" rather suddenly, and the animation was subpar most of the time.

Soundtrack was nice, voice acting was enjoyable, at least it had that going for it.

Probably not something I'd rewatch anytime soon. And definitely not as good as people hyped it up to be, but it wasn't bad, just not "OMG GREATEST EVER".

Kind of, but FLCL's far better. FLCL's the kind of Anime I purchase. KLK's the kind of Anime I put on my best pirate hat for. But that might just have to do with FLCL getting a release with a modest price and KLK being released by the king of "I don't know what country I'm in!" Aniplex.

I think I'm in the minority of people who did not like FLCL.

As much as I like FLCL, I do understand where you're coming from.  Naota is a brat, Haruko is a selfish megalomatic [sonic slicer], Mamimi is definitely insane, and most of the side characters are annoying except for the mayor's daughter and Naota's dad since he shows how Haruko will do anything to get what she wants, and poor eyebrows is the most desperate man ever.

I still like these characters though, Haruko is actually my favorite for being bat [parasitic bomb] crazy and manipulative in every step of the way along with the Mayor's daughter, and Mamimi was pretty funny before she went off the deepend after Naoto rejected her.  And I did like the plot and how these characters fit into it, again it's the side characters I don't like particularly Naota's classmates for being pervs, the grandpa for not contributing anything besides being a perv and his favoritism of Naota's older brother, and the teacher while hilarious is a real dumbass.

6 episodes away from finishing Jojo. Battle Tendency's really heating up now.

Also the Persona 3 movie finally found its way to the internet with english subs so I've watched that as well. It wasn't bad, a bit slow at points and it skipped through the first two months of the game pretty quickly (seeing as social links are basically not there.) but the animation was nice and it was fun to occasionally see small cameos by the Social Link characters. I like how they handled Makoto's personality too. Obviously instead of silent he does talk, just not that much.

Only thing I didn't really care for were them doing what they did in P4tA for acquiring new Personas by obtaining Arcana instead of just finding them and fusing and whatnot. And since they're not doing Social links they've tied them to the Full Moon Shadows instead. Its a bit goofy but at least they're not just fighting through their personas exclusively like P4tA had done.

Second one's out next month probably but I doubt we'll see it until same time next year.

EDIT: Done with Jojo. I'll wait till Stardust Crusaders is wrapped up till I watch it.

Slowly trudging through the Canon segment of Sailor Moon R still. I figure I might as well still watch the stuff I have already since it'll be a while till the BD set comes out in the US.

Some thoughts:
-Animation's taken a bump, it looks less like Season 1 now that I'm past Doom Tree.
-Mamoru breaking up with Usagi because of a vague premonition he got? Okay, that's dumb. And it means less Tuxedo Mask theme so that's also a bummer.
-I think there's literally only been like one or two episodes where the other Senshi did anything, its been a lot of Usagi doing everything, Minako and Makoto seem to be hit the hardest with this since they're not only the last two additions in season 1 which already meant they had less screentime, but they also seem to be lucky to get ONE LINE off.
-Chibiusa... She's not as bad as I remember her being. I still don't like her, but she's not onscreen NEARLY as much as I thought she was going to be so big plus there.

It seems to be a bit slower though, not sure if its because I purposefully watched the last season in huge chunks or if its because I've been taking longer breaks, but it seems more talky and less action-y.
Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?
Post by: Police Girl on July 05, 2014, 01:32:21 AM
Finished Sailor Moon R. All the stuff that bugged me about it earlier on, it all made sense as the series wrapped up.

It really wasn't as bad as I was thinking it was going to be with the Chibiusa stuff. Dare I say it, she actually grew on me a bit.

I also liked how the ending involved no senshi deaths. S isn't going to have the same kindness to it though I imagine. Speaking of S, the only copies I have of that are horrid looking R1 DVD rips so I think I'll either wait till somebody subs up the Dynit rips or just wait till the BD set. I'm not watching what's considered the best season on what looks like awful VHS.

Since I was feeling in the mood I decided to finally watch Kara no Kyoukai Mirai Fukuin Extra Chorus and what do you know, some random side stories included as an extra are better than the actual movie itself.

I suppose it helps that they cover characters the viewers already know like Shiki and Fujinon rather than ones no one gives a [parasitic bomb] about like a girl who got a 5 second cameo in the 6th movie or some terrorist bomber.

Well I liked it.

It's far from perfect, has plenty of issues- but I found it entertaining, and I liked the characters. it's boring if an anime is flawless.

Except Nui. Holy Moley was she obnoxious. but I suppose that was her whole point.

I liked the story too. As silly and over the top as it is, i didn't quite expect it to turn into invasion of the body snatchers type [parasitic bomb] with the life fibers, and all the twists and turns, despite being very cliche and obvious in hindsight, I didn't see coming due to just how silly and formulaic the story was for the most part.

Edit:Nui, not Yui. whoops
Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?

1 is much different than the others since it deals more with the super natural than the crazy ass shonen it is really known for, but it's still pretty awesome.

I suppose I should mention which anime I am currently watch since I'm in this thread but honestly there isn't a whole lot. I'm mostly checking out stuff airing this season but there isn't a whole lot.

Sailor Moon Crystal had a pretty decent first episode, I have some pretty good expectations of it. Ao Haru Ride is a pretty cute show but its pretty generic as far as shoujo goes, Persona 4 Golden is exactly as you'd expect not much to say there, Space Dandy 2 is great so far I really missed the show, Aldnoah.Zero isn't anything amazing so far and while I watched the first episode of Zankyou no Terror I don't even remember a single thing about it.

What else is left that catches my attention that I could pick up? Free is gay but I watched the first season so I'll probably pick it up and then there's Love Stage which is literally gay, so I think I'll pass on that one.

I'm still waiting for a better translation of 4, I don't want to read 6-8 until I finish 4.

I remember seeing a few times that the new translation of Part 4 has already been finished.

It shouldn't be Part 4's translation you're complaining about anyway, Part 5's is much worse even if its presented better.

The Duwang guy at least manged to convey the gist of what was going on while the people who translated Part 5 made up a lot of stuff a long the way.

I just don't know how 5's translation is worse, I certainly understood it better than 4's Dwang.  Then again I understood X6's translation better than I should for some reason. :\

It has pretty bitchin' OST to boot

Cosmic Adventure - Space Dandy OST (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m2Hki1ksL1A#ws)

Sadly I couldn't find any of the tracks I wanted to link, seems most of them have been muted.

Yeah I've heard some tracks and it's pretty solid. Definitely have to pick that up/download them.

Speaking of OSTs, I do hope Build Fighters Try brings back the same OST guy, cause I really love that soundtrack.

But yeah I hope the same guy comes back too. He's actually pretty new considering the majority of his work has been from the past 2 years. The stuff he's for Haikyuu! has been great so I'm interested to see (or hear I suppose) what else he'll come up with.

I recognized Crispin Freeman's voice right away from that Space Dandy clip you posted.

Even if he's kinda overused, the dubbing is usually pretty solid if he's in it.

Believe it or not that's not Crispin Freeman. Dandy's VA is Ian Sinclair.

So far...

Persona 4 The Animation: Ep 11/26. Sort of going at this at my own pace, no need to rush or anything.

One Piece: 229 episodes in. Taking a break for about a month so Collection 10 can come out.

Sailor Moon 90s: Episode 6 of S (95/200), slowed down on this one to catch up on One Piece, I'll get back to it eventually but for now I'm in no rush.

Sailor Moon Crystal: 3/26, I'm caught up for now, ep 4 releases this week and then we have to wait till September 6th till another new episode (Apparently Bi-weekly isn't a concept they desire to adhere to, instead its twice a month regardless. That's so incredibly stupid.)

I'm also stumbling through Ranma 1/2 as well. I think I'm on episode 9 of that.

Post by: Frozen Potato on August 20, 2014, 03:47:37 AM
Welp time to list what anime I (tried) watching so far.

Watch List
Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun this show is pure gold of lolz.

Good Game Online(SAO2)- well, at least it has a better start than Fairy Land.

Rokujouma no Shinryakusha- Well the main character isn't a pushover despite the haremness. I like it.

On Hold

Barakkamon- Don't get me wrong, its a good show and one of the best slice of life. Probably will watch again once I feel like it.

Akame ga Kill- Well I've already read the manga, so I don't really feel like watching it for now

Fate/kaleid liner Prisma☆Illya 2wei!- Same reason as above.

Tokyo Ghoul- Same reason. Though I like the manga better to be honest. I'll probably just drop it.

Dropped

Tokyo ESP- to be honest I don't like the premise of superhuman shitting on humans just because their better. But then again its just me. And no I haven't watched Ga Rei Zero or anything related.

Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance- Pure harem fanservice [parasitic bomb], unlimited tsundere works, I can't believe people like this show just because of one loli. The MC is sorta strong but a wimp in regards of dealing with shitty girls with shitty personality.(As if that's something new but its not.)

Watching classic flavor Dragonball. I'm about 35 episodes in so far. Though, having only Goku be present for the most part of the Red Ribbon Saga is sort of a downer after the first 13 episodes had a good dynamic with Bulma, Yamcha and Oolong.

I started doing the same thing myself, actually. You're watching it dubbed, I hope?

I mainly started it because the first Dragon Ball episode popped up in my Recommendations, for whatever reason, so I watched it to refresh my memory.

Next thing I know, those mesmerizing Opening and Ending themes are pulling me in (I could [tornado fang]ing watch that Ending theme all day <3). Goku is just as dumb and hilarious as I remembered. The "pat-pat" scene with Goku and Bulma makes me laugh everytime. XD

Seitokai Yakuindomo S2

Started watching this after I finished the OVA, which was [tornado fang]ing hilarious, just like the first season. The most I've laughed since Carnival Phantasm. The second season seems a bit more... stale, for some reason, but it definitely has a fair bit of laugh-out-loud moments. Still enjoyable, overall.

I recommend this series.

I also decided to watch Strike The Blood because  somebody said it isn't TOTALLY horrible. I'LL BE THE JUDGE OF THAT.

And I also also decided to watch Moretsu Pirates because of the lulz. Also bad.

And I also also also decided to watch Inou Battle wa Nichijou kei no something something because of cute girls.

And I'm watching Hyouka, Kokoro Connect, Love Lab, Love Live, and Acchi Kocchi on-and-off because I need moeshit in my life.

I WOULD be watching season two of Chaika but I'm too lazy to catch up so I'm waiting for it to finish.

Recently watched Gatchaman Crowds with a friends at his behest since a second season is coming out.

I really don't care about anything else in the franchise nor will I ever. I was satisfied with this show alone for what it was. It had some good progressive themes and characters. Especially since the fabulously gay member of the team turns out to be the strongest by leaps and bounds.

Read the manga. It's miles better. People still die everywhere though.

This season's watch list
Oregairu2- MC is an ass but also unique, instead of being stereotypical bland MC.

Destiny/Stay Night Infinite Sword Employment S2 -Welp better than what Deen Studio could have done.

Vanishment of Nagamon Snow - It's ok I guess.

Hiatus/Havent
Danmachi- Havent attempted to watch past ep1 yet. Just gonna let the hype cool down first.
Plastic Memories- Watched up till ep2 but I'm still fraid I can't handle the upcoming feels.
Show by Stone- Heard its a cool show, might watch it soon.

Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?

I have been guilty of that with my brother when I wanted him to watch Jojo's Bizarre Adventure because I did pester him a bit but he has been watching it now though very slowly.

He's guilty of it as well with recommending Fairy Tale even though I honestly have no interest in watching it as well as certain members of the anime club recommending me to watch Sword Art Online.  Attack on Titan was like that too and I honestly did give it a try because the early parts seemed interesting....until we got to the Titan Shifting concepts and I was really turned off by it quick.

It's the fact that people assume that I would like something even though it's not really something I'm interested in. 

Otherwise I can't put into words why this sort of thing annoys people and why it turns them off even though I do understand it and it in fact turns me off as well.  Could be an effect of unintentional Reverse Psychology.

Steins;Gate is completed.

That was... uh, that was quite something. The last couple of episodes demand rewatching, and I have some questions on certain aspects. Overall, it was amazing and a pretty damn ballsy sci-fi anime. Extremely recommended.

If I hadn't played the Zero Escape series, my brain probably would have exploded. It hasn't quite reached ZE level insanity, in regards to time travel, though it came close in some parts. But in all honesty, it doesn't even need to be compared to that. Steins;Gate is unique in a way I never would have anticipated.

Apparently, there's a rumor of a second season, though I don't understand what else they could do in the story. It wrapped up so perfectly, very similar to how Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood ended perfectly. There's nothing else to really prod or pick at in those conclusions.

Either way, I'll definitely rewatch some of the episodes.

OreGairu's gone down the shitter. It's watchable still but it's really not as good as it started out.

On the other hand, whenever Hestia isn't on my screen, DanMachi's [tornado fang]ing amazing. Last fight was flawlessly choreographed. It was great.

I dropped Owari no Seraph because it's [parasitic bomb] though.

Okay, so not a rumor, but it is actually confirmed now: Steins;Gate will be getting a "sequel". It's called Steins;Gate 0

It will revolve around the Beta World Line
[spoiler]An alternate world where Okabe gives up on saving Kirisu and, I presume, will spawn the events of World War III.[/spoiler]

It's not an actual sequel, as it won't take place after Steins;Gate's true ending. I suppose it will be the "Bad End" of the anime, so expect it to be depressing.

On a lighter note

http://youtu.be/E8GiKqzoN8s (http://youtu.be/E8GiKqzoN8s)

I completed the series in dubbed form, and it's really freaking solid. But for this scene in particular, I have to give it to the seiyuu. 8D

I've heard that Robotic;Notes has a shallow plot, in comparison to Steins;Gate. It probably won't be worth it, after watching the latter.

SuperS is over.

Not a bad season, not great. But not nearly as terrible as I thought it would be.

But now, its time. The Beginning of the end, Sailor Stars, is here at last.

TIME TO GET READY TO BAWL MY [tornado fang]ing EYES OUT.

Saw the new Little Witch Academia yesterday. It's one of those things where I absolutely love pretty much every major character so it's certainly a very worthwhile watch.
Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?
Post by: Sakura Leic on July 15, 2015, 12:08:28 AM
So I watched the first episode of the God Eater Anime, it's not too bad though there are somethings to get used to.

Things I Like

[spoiler]
1. The way Lenka was handled.

The guy is your typical spiky haired hot blooded revenge driven shonen hero protag that wants to destroy all Aragami, which is not surprising.  However while the guy is somewhat badass, ie not even flinching when being injected with Bias factor and surviving in an Aragami infested hell hole implied to be outside of the Aegis wall, they show exactly how much of a liability he is instead of an instant prodigy being showered with praise at almost every turn like you are in the game.

He constantly fails his training simulations, which he wanted to skip in the first place during a minor Aragami attack like a dumbass even though he didn't even have his God Arc yet, always trying to save someone instead of attacking the Aragami.  Tsubaki also doesn't take any of his [parasitic bomb] either, as expected of her.  At the end of the episode when the big Aragami attack happen he barely did [parasitic bomb] until the end, by dumb luck I might add, and had to be bailed out by the First Unit.  The only reason that Lenka was out there in the first place was because Tsubaki didn't realize that Lenka's God Arc was finished before it was too late thanks to Kouta showing him his God Arc after yet another failed training session.

2. How they introduced Kouta

It was so friggin awkward in the game with you 2 just sitting on the couch and offering you a piece of gum before realizing that he doesn't have any and not even looking at you when he told you his name.

In the anime Lenka bumps into Kouta when he wanted to go out into the field, with no God Arc as mentioned above.  After things calm down with Tsubaki not taking Lenka's bullshit and telling him to train Kouta introduces himself.  Once again he offers Lenka a piece of gum and before realizing he has none but the instant he takes his hand out of his pocket he's shaking hands with Lenka.  That's a much better intro than the previous one which even added a somewhat cocky mention of him being the Protag's senior by nano second. 

It also shows Kouta starting to be a bro to Lenka in a nice way without his annoying aspects, yet at least.  No obsession with Bugaraly yet either.  Also was a nice touch of seeing Kouta in a generic Fenrir uniform instead of his main clothes.

3. Tsubaki's outfit modification

I have expressed annoyance about Tsubaki's revealing clothes due to obviously showing that she's not wearing a bra or panties a few times.  The way they redesigned her outfit still makes her incredibly sexy and revealing but in a way that makes her a badass former lieutenant much more believable.  I very much approve of this though I wish they did the same with Sakuya and her lack of bra.....

4. The Bias Factor injection process.

Lenka is shirtless and it shows the Oracle Cells entering his system while still attached to the machine.  In the game (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v0-R5J3d2hY&list=PLx-u12t-QXaEti8clr4jpp7j7dJc3QdHI&index=3) (at around 2:50) you're wearing your default uniform and when you get out of the machine a random ass tendril just pokes your bracelet while your character with barely a reaction.  Also in the game you instantly got your God Arc when the process is done, Lenka only has his bracelet and no God Arc at the beginning.

If they do an anime adaptation of the second game I'm curious about how that will look since they way they did it there was absolutely gut-renching.

5. Aragami breaking the Wall of Aegis

Just goes to show how the Wall of Aegis was only a temporary solution, not that it wasn't portrayed properly in the game either though really your missions are usually outside the wall if I remember correctly.

6. The music

The rock music really fits the tone of God Eater.

7. Pretty much no one was really aware about the abilities of New-Type God Eaters.

So as I mentioned before Lenka was always failing his training sessions because he tries to save someone instead of attacking the Aragami and they justified it beyond Lenka just being a reckless hot head.  Lenka, and the First Unit, didn't realize that his God Arc Sword could also turn into a Gun.  As I mentioned before Lenka did not get his God Arc until the end of the episode, and he was using a mock weapon while training, so he had no way of knowing that since he's a New Type God Eater that he has the benefit of being able to use a Sword and a Gun unlike most God Eaters who can only use one or the other.  He blasts a Kongu in the face by the sheer dumb luck of the God Arcs being somewhat sentient. 

It's really good because at this point there's only really 2 known New-Type God Eaters so it makes sense that everyone was shocked about it.

8. Eric is in the first episode

Nice that they introduce Eric and he's not acting like a narcissistic jerk, and he doesn't die yet.  Hopefully when he does bite it it's not to an Ogre Tail getting him while his back is turned.
[/spoiler]

Things I found interesting

[spoiler]
1. Sending injured God Eaters out to fight the Aragami

There's no better way to show how crapsack and desperate a world hanging by a mere thread is than sending out soldiers with broken arms and messed up faces to the field.  It also shows that despite the fact that while the God Eaters are more durable than a normal human due to being injected with Bias Factor they certainly are not invincible, which they did a pretty good job in the game when Eric died.

2. Art style

While I think Johannes looks a little weird I think it looks nice though I wish the Aragami and the God Arcs were a little less CG like, even though it makes sense and it's not too jarring with the art style.  However I know it will mostly be hit or miss with others.[/spoiler]


Things I didn't really like.

[spoiler]1. Not a lot action in the first episode and not a lot of good explanation either if any.

For someone who played the game I'm kind of fine with it, for someone who hasn't this is not going to be very interesting and you'll probably be a bit lost about what the hell is going on.

2. Stupid jump cuts to flash backs with very little rhyme or reason.

The good news is they didn't spoil anything but god dammit I could have done without the flashbacks with Johaness and Sakaki.  It was boring as hell too.

3. The episode kind of dragged, a lot.

It's very slow and at some points pretty boring especially with said flashbacks.

4. Could have used a lot more character interactions and really could have used a little less intense focus on Lenka.

For gods sake they made Sakaki look absolutely boring, [tornado fang]ing Sakaki!  I hope they show a lot more of him in the next episode because he's one of the best characters in the game.

5. Lenka is rather hit and miss with a lot of people with mostly misses as of right now.

Since he is like you're average generic Shonen Hero, as I mentioned before, I can understand why people don't like him yet and if he continues that way why they will keep not liking him.  His design is also pretty generic too, not as bad as Yuu, the game canonical protag, in my opinion but it's still pretty bad.  The ending of the first episode will probably not help this since it looks like generic shonen hero fair of having the Protag's butt be saved by a last minuted not foreshadowed ability.  People have compared him to Eren Jeager, which as a first impression with all those factors, I don't blame them for thinking that way.
[/spoiler]

First impressions are good to me at least, hopefully the pacing will be okay since the Anime is only about 13 episodes.  Then again most of the game was filler missions so actually might make sense.  However this is from someone who has played the game, for someone who hasn't the first episode doesn't really do much to hook in new comers and does a pretty bad job at it unfortunately.  So it's mostly objectionably okay despite the fact that I like it I can see why most won't and don't. I hope this changes in the second episode.

I don't know; I remember watching the first episode a long time ago, but never got into it that time. Now that I watched it again, I then reminded myself why this anime was comedy gold.

Even though a certain melody plays; it kept reminding me of Shanghai Teahouse ~ Chinese Tea (aka. Hong Meiling's stage theme).

Death Parade started off really [tornado fang]ing great. The opening is cool, too.

http://youtu.be/UjjTMNDZi-A (http://youtu.be/UjjTMNDZi-A)

Unfortunately, it tapered off towards the end and the conclusion was somewhat underwhelming. Honestly, this probably would have worked better as a 6-episode OVA, rather than a full series.

Still, for what it's worth, I did enjoy my time with it and I love the casino setting.

Been actually keeping tabs on a thing or more that's currently running.

Watching Monogatari Series Final Season, I think it's technically called? Current arc is specifically Owarimonogatari so whatever. It's brought in a new character pretty late but I'm eager about where it goes. Also I indirectly said this already but the 2nd opening theme (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EMBq6qmOzz4) is one of the best yet.

Also decided to watch One Punch Man after reading the silly premise. Dude kills every monster with exactly what you expect and is pretty bored about it. Surprised with the top notch animation and a song from JAM Project that rocks pretty hard.

This past summer season I also watched Gatchaman Crowds Insight. I think the first season was better since this one kinda relegated the returning cast to side characters. I mean, they were of bigger focus before since it was about their development around the first lead, whereas this an inversion and more run of the mill I guess. Oh well.

Oh yea, and of course I'm watching Dragon Ball Super. I'm curious with how long it's aiming for with the first major fight adapted from a movie getting a bit drawn out.

I'm not saying it's random. I'm saying, that I'm making a random choice on what to watch, since I got nothing better to watch at the moment.

And I sort of also chose it, because of the last episode of Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei, that I watch, kinda mentioned it's name so, you know.

I agree. I suppose that's the consequence of ending a series when the manga/web-comic didn't even finish.

The Deep Sea King arc was my favorite. Mumen Rider's speech and Saitama giving credit to the others Heroes, at the cost of people viewing him as a fraud. That was the peak of OPM, for me.

[spoiler]Yes Madoka ascended and became Godoka.  She basically rewrote the universe so Magical Girls don't become Witches when they die but rather go to a Magical Girl Nirvana.

As for Homura she inherited Madoka's bow, as well as one of Madoka's ribbons which doesn't really do anything.[/spoiler]

This. It felt like there should have been at least another episode or two. I understand that they ran out of material, but couldn't the writers have just made something up to give the series closure? I'm actually hoping that since the series is so popular, that we'll get a second season.

Finished the first season of Stand Alone Complex and I'm currently six episodes into the second.

The season finale had more OOOOHHH SHIIIIIIIT moments for me than any anime I've watched thus far. The animation really took a step up in Season 2 as well. I'm really impressed. Sure it's not the prettiest, shiniest anime out there like some of those KyoAni productions but there's so much fine detail (people in the background making realistic actions and movements, cars pulling out behind people, barely noticeable realistic lens flares from lights) it's actually really immersive to watch, and I can't honestly say immersive is the word I'd use for any other series I've seen.

All in all I'm still hooked. Probably thinking about watching Arise after this.

Arise is pretty damn good, but the fact that they're OVAs means they suffer a bit as they don't have the depth that SAC has. Some of the plotlines can feel a little convoluted or rushed as a result. I'd still recommend it, though.  :)

Y'know, I should rewatch SAC too, once I'm finished with Burst Angel.

so lets recap the [parasitic bomb] i've either watched or started watching in the last few months.

I watched the first Berzerk film, lots of 3DCG but it kinda works?

I watched Overlord, kinda neat i guess but what was the point of having all those characters if half of em made like one appearance ever. I mean you go through the trouble of having a character who's explicitly a trap but never utilize them? also there was an edgy [sonic slicer] with gold armor, blonde hair and red eyes and watching her die was the single most satisfying thing in that series. Other than that, really went for the MMO kinda setting a dark ages time period with an adventurer's guild with a bar and missions and "You gotta be this rank to do this 'find five bear asses' mission" bullshit that's getting so overdone.

I started Konosuba but immediately dropped it after one episode after it starting to look interesting then pissing away all of its goodwill on a [tornado fang]ing trite MMO-MidEvil setting with a [tornado fang]ing adventurer's guild. And the OP(?) at the end of the first episode (since anime tends to do that recently, kinda annoying to be honest but i guess they have to sucker some fools into thinking its NOT a generic sword/sorcery MMO anime) also had generic color coded mage and cleric and [parasitic bomb] so [tornado fang] that. My friend let slip that Danmachi was also a series in that vein so i'm not even gonna dignify that with a watch at all (And I actually wanted to watch Danmachi too, shame)

I finally finished Dragonball Z, now I get to rewatch it and Dragonball AND all the movies in Japanese, plus the [parasitic bomb] that's only in japanese that i skipped the first time around. Then I can maybe watch Super, or maybe i'll get really really drunk and stagger my way through the fever dream known as GT.

So yeah anime's kinda drying up for me.

Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?
Post by: Police Girl on June 11, 2016, 05:32:48 AM
nah, i just don't get into it as much as I used to. either nothing grabs me that much or I watch something with my friend and it falls completely flat. Like I watched One Punch Man a while back and that was a lot of fun, meanwhile I watched like two or three episodes of Watamote and I just couldn't [tornado fang]ing stand it. Stuff like that is why i'm falling into the mindset of just rewatching the stuff I like instead of really going anywhere new. Also I make it a personal point to not watch series as they're airing unless its something like One Piece where I'll either never catch up or it'll finish by the time i get anywhere close to where its currently at (And even with One Piece i'm highly considering switching to the Manga after the timeskip)

and hey while dbz's movies aren't very good i certainly had fun watching them. besides i hear super's really improving after the movie recaps ended.

Fair enough-I kinda liked baby as a villain though since unlike most he had some legitimate hatred for the sayians even if it was genetically programed into him. Also his design while infesting vegeta was kinda neat.

Yeah the Dragon Ball fights were pretty damn awesome, though I'll always have a soft spot for the Cell Saga in DBZ since it showed just how flawed a lot of the characters are and it almost costed them everything because of how everyone in that tournament made so many big screw ups.

Yeah looking back at it Frieza's fight just wasn't that good because it lacked tension to me.  I mean yeah Namek was blowing up, and yeah Krillien's death was gut wrenching and a huge tear jerker just because of how Goku reacted to it and the shock of just how terrifying a Super Saiyan, a being born of pure anger, is but it was just so disappointing just how easy Frieza was to be curb stomped once that happened. 

I mean yeah that's kind of the point, Frieza fearing the Saiyans because of how powerful they are and the show does a good job of proving why Saiyans are so feared, but in the end it was pretty weak compared to when Vegita was first fought and even Raditz.  I mean it was great at the time, especially with how dickish they were for taking so long to get to that point in the US, but now it just looks boring.

I think another problem in the Namek saga was how Goku was heavily depened on for nearly everything, and he became this almost invincible hero.  I mean yeah Goku got wrecked by Ginyuu, but only because of the body switching. 

I also have a huge sore spot for the Buu saga due to Vegita acting so stupid and Kid Trunks being......well Kid Trunks.  That and how overshadowed Gohan became, I mean yeah it's in Gohan's character to not dedicate himself to fighting but it was still disappointing since Gohan is one of my favorite characters.  The only thing I liked was how Hercule was redeemed, everything he did in that Saga was awesome, and he's just a normal guy!

Yeah and I honestly really don't like that, it's a very common trap that a lot of Shonen series fall into and it's also why Naruto is also very much despised by its detractors, other than Sasuke being one of the most badly written characters in history, the Lead Character is the Center of the Universe. 

The only time this didn't happen in DBZ was in the previously mentioned Cell Saga and first 2 Sayian Sagas, with Piccolo finishing off Raditz and Goku only barely winning at the skin of his teeth thanks to Gohan going Oozaru and Yajirobe actually doing something for once and slicing off Vegeta's tail.  Otherwise Goku, and in a lot of bland Shonens the Lead Character, has to do [tornado fang]ing everything because the not Lead Characters can't dare to steal the Spotlight from the Lead Character or else the Lead Character can't be the most awesomest person in the Universe.

Nothing happens without the Lead Character, only the Lead Character can beat the Big Bad and most of their hench men.  Lead Character this, Lead Character that, Lead Character, Lead Character, Lead [tornado fang]ing Character all day erry day. 

It's really infuriating that all of the other characters are either supports or loads, it's almost like they might as well not be there because 90% of the time they don't do anything major, most of the time they stall or they try and fail miserably and nothing changes.  It really diminishs how awesome DBZ is because Goku is usually used as a plot device to wrap everything up and do most of the work.

It's why I prefer Yu Yu Hakusho much more, it's why I absolutely adore Jojo's Bizzare Adventure so [tornado fang]ing much, it's not all about the Lead Character, the other characters actually provide meaningful support and actually do things meaningful and significant! 

I mean DBZ is a fun ride, and I still like it very much, but otherwise a lot of it makes me cringe with how much they kiss up to Goku and how they really trivialize the growth of other characters, even and especially Vegeta.  I mean Vegeta tries to do things, but in the end it almost always falls flat and Goku has to save the day and get all the credit.
Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?
Post by: Phi on June 11, 2016, 11:37:33 PM
You have to remember that DBZ is the foundation for most shounen anime, which is why you have things like Naruto, Fairy Tail, and One Piece with very similar protagonists. And as with many foundations/starting points, there is bound to be countless flaws and plot inconsistencies.

Like you said, that's why shows like Yu Yu Hakusho are so goddamn great. It breaks the protagonist plot-armor mold, and takes time to focus on secondary characters and their personal struggles. Yusuke didn't seem that much more important than the others; everyone had development.

[spoiler]And I LOVE that Yusuke lost the final battle against Yomi. Even with newly discovered strength, he isn't perfect.

I'd like to see a shounen made now that'd have the balls to have their main character lose a major battle.[/spoiler]

Fairy Tail is probably the worst offender of always having the heroes win by bullshit means, so this new RP triggers me a little bit.
Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?
Post by: Sakura Leic on June 11, 2016, 11:58:08 PM
Yeah and that's why I don't fault DBZ as much, I hate what it became at times but it has it's good and even great points.  I mean even the newer movies, which still had plenty of the same problems mind you, did some really good things as well.  I mean they weren't perfect, but they both had some good ideas and Resurrection of F did some character exploration and again highlighted the flaws of Goku, Vegeta, and especially Frieza. 

I mean yeah, Vegeta was robbed at the end, Frieza could have been much more of a threat, and the ending where Goku and Vegeta basically pissed on the idea of actually overcoming said flaws and willingly working together for once instead of as a last resort was one of the dumbest things I've ever seen, but the thought was really appreciated to me.  Hell Master Roshi actually did something again, it wasn't much, but he actually did something!
Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?
Post by: Police Girl on June 12, 2016, 05:58:03 AM
Honestly most of the reason Battle of Gods is any good is because of the very Classic-Era Dragonball style humor. Resurrection F has a lot of the same too but it gets a bit dumb with SSJGSSJ (Thankfully renamed to Super Saiyan Blue which sounds just silly as opposed to obnoxious)

Honestly nowadays looking back while Goku might be the main character of the entire franchise he seems very secondary in Z. I mean if you think about it his story is mostly told in Dragonball, starting with Z he starts falling into the trend of being either Dead/Traveling to the fight via the slowest flying in the series/In the Hospital/On a spaceship/in THE POD/Taking the scenic route back from Namek/Having a literal heart attack then sleeping it off/Training in the Time Chamber/Standing on the sidelines/Dying again (for really real this time guys!)/Training in other world/trying to teach fusion dance/being dead again.

Honestly the only real times he's the focus during Z are the big fights (Raditz, Vegeta & Nappa, Ginyu and Final Form Frieza, Perfect Cell and Super/Kid Buu) in the series. During all the smaller fights (Everybody before Ginyu, Frieza 1-3, Androids, Imperfect/Semi-Perfect Cell and Fat Buu) He either clowns everybody in a few hits (Ginyu Force save for Guldo and Jeice who were both killed by Vegeta), is made to be incapacitated so he can't fight (Androids) or only fights to stall for time (Fat Buu). Everything else is mostly focused on Gohan (Especially when he was Training with Piccolo, but also most of Namek and of course the final fight with Cell) and Vegeta (Everything involving his fights with Frieza, Cell, when he turned Majin, and his involvement during the end of the Kid Buu fight.).

Everybody else got the short end of the stick, half the Z fighters were essentially useless (save for Piccolo and maybe Krillin and Tien), most of the supporting cast from Dragonball up and vanished (Poor poor Lunch.) but that sorta tends to happen with Shonen series.

Z's far from the excellence of the original Dragonball but its still far bettter than like 90% of shonens out there. One Piece might honestly be one of the few decent ones that's still around, if only because it has a feeling more of a grand adventure that doesn't always take itself with the utmost seriousness and less of a "Serial Escalation" vibe where everything keeps getting BIGGER AND BADDER and the stakes keep rising until it all just kinda ends on a wet fart.

Z was SUPPOSED to focus more on Gohan than Goku, but that just didn't really stick as more characters were added to the mix. I feel like Gohan got shafted hard after the Saiyan arc.
Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?
Post by: Phi on June 12, 2016, 08:01:40 AM
It was supposed to end after the Frieza saga, with Goku presumably dying.

But fans liked Goku too much, so Toriyama went "here, have an Android and Cell saga."

So then it was going to end after the Cell saga, which would have been [tornado fang]ing perfect, as Gohan would continue his father's legacy.

Fans wanted more. Then Toriyama said "Shut the [tornado fang] up and take this Buu saga!"

... And years later, we now have Super, so it's clearly all about the money now.
Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?
Post by: Sakura Leic on June 12, 2016, 08:22:15 AM
Actually those are just false rumors that have been circulated by the majority of the fans since they felt like DBZ should had ended at multiple points, the only thing that might be confirmed, I think it is and I have to double check to be sure on that, was that Toriyama wanted to make Gohan the main character after Cell but the Japanese audience didn't seem to like that idea and the executive meddling about the higher ups hating all the villains in the Cell Saga until Cell was made.

Further more Toriyama is only really responsible for the manga, not the anime that's adapted from the manga. 

The only real kernel of truth in this is that the original Dragon Ball was supposed to be only 2 volumes long and he would go back to writing his other stuff.  Then it got massively popular, so that's how we got here.   Otherwise all those other rumors are false because Toriyama himself never said anything of the sort.
Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?

Well, then that works with Gohan meant to carry his father's legacy.

Only now, he's a boring ass student, and is barely part of the Z Fighters anymore, thanks to Chi-Chi.

Title: Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?
Post by: Sakura Leic on June 12, 2016, 08:47:02 AM
That's another thing that the fans are wrong about, Chi Chi's not to blame for Gohan doing that, Gohan unfortunately doesn't like fighting as much as his father.  I mean look at how traumatized he gets throughout Dragonball Z, I can't blame him for just wanting to be a normal guy, he's been forced to fight since he was 4! Yeah the guy has potential to surpass his Dad, but that doesn't mean he actually does when he only has a mild interest in Martial Arts.

My interpretation is that if Gohan was to be the main character he would be forced to fight because he's forced to, not because he wants to.  Gohan himself would ultimately want to be Normal, but if his Dad were not around to pick up the entire DBZ universe's slack, Gohan would not be able to afford having a normal life and going home to be a family man.

So no it's not Chi Chi's fault, Gohan is just not a hard core fighter like his Dad is.  He has an interest in Martial Arts, but he's not a fanatic and obsessed with it like his Dad and the others.

Besides can we really blame Chi Chi for you know, actually being a Mom? I mean she's abrasive don't get me wrong, but do you know any mom who would be okay to send their only child at the time to an unknown planet where he could be killed of disapper forever?  Would any good mom actually say they can do that without resistance at Gohan's age?  And don't get me started on how Goku and Vegeta get father of the year awards.  Oh wait, no they don't because both of them are terrible Dads.  I mean Goku is one of the nicest people you can talk to, and he obviously loves his family but he's honestly not a good Dad.  And you know who doesn't become a terrible Dad?  Gohan, Gohan is not a terrible Dad because he's not another Goku.

Besides if Gohan didn't become a Scholar he wouldn't write his book in the future that revived an interest in True Martial Arts and Ki Control again which also made Tien, Krillen, and Trunks and Goten open up Martial Arts Schools to teach many new generations various forms of Martial Arts and Ki Control.  I mean you have to admit that's [tornado fang]ing badass, he started a freaking movement, even Goku couldn't do that!

Yeah. Think about it like the direction Vinland Saga went. Thorfinn becomes a heartless killer at a young age seeking revenge for his father's death. However, after some time, he mellows out and becomes very anti-violence, and now only fights when expressly necessary. It's a pretty standard trope, but it's criminally underused and I think DBZ handled it gracefully.

Of course, I know it's ultimately Gohan's decision to either focus on his studies or train to become a powerful warrior. But I still blame Chi-Chi for being absolutely relentless in keeping Gohan locked up in his room.

Even in the moments where Gohan DID want to help them out, she would insist on him being just a normal kid. Yes, I know that's a very motherly thing to do, but that doesn't magically make it not annoying. Parents are annoying, after all.

What made me cry on the inside, though, was in Resurrection F, Gohan said something along the lines of "I hope I still remember how to turn Super Saiyan."

Like, really?

It's also worth noting that Toriyama is bad at writing women, and doesn't even know how to draw two people kissing.

So... basically some of my aunts. Acting like a brat doesn't end with adolescence or marriage.

Bulma stopped being hot after Namek (Future Bulma stayed hot though). Chi Chi stopped being hot after the 7 year timeskip between Cell and Buu (Arguably she stopped being hot after the end of Dragonball, but I insist she was still attractive until she lost the bangs). Videl was cute up through Battle of Gods (Seriously, she might not fight anymore but I really really liked her outfit in BoG), and 18 only lost attractiveness after she cut her hair into the same ugly haircut Bulma has at the end of the series.

Of course come GT everybody's old.

Well, he went Super Saiyan for like 5 seconds in BoG, not for fighting but just for charging up Goku's God form.

Other than that wasn't his 'Ultimate' upgrade he got from Old Kai supposed to have basically overwritten his Super Saiyan transformation? Not that he actually ever got to use that ability since he never got the chance to actually do much fighting.

I have no idea. I think i just kinda went off on a tangent.

Point I was trying to make before I got distracted, attitudes don't always change with age, Bulma mostly stayed the same, so when she got older/married her having mostly the same personality as she dod when she was 15/16 sort of comes off as childish.

Chi Chi on the other hand changed a lot, giving up martial arts (though still able to kick ass) to focus on being a doting parent even if her methods weren't always the best. And like Gohan compared to Goku, Videl mellows out with age too, giving up fighting really early on and becoming a very relaxed wife and mother.

18 mostly stayed the same. Not fighting as much but she barely fought anyway.

Yeah though admittedly I don't think Chi Chi changed all that much despite giving up Martial Arts, and even then as a kid she was more interested in having a family more than anything.  Though she did become more irritable, but I think being married to someone like Goku would do that to you I guess. Otherwise she just devoted her energy to being a mother but she really didn't change that much, irritability aside.

Speaking of which does anyone remember why she and Goku live in the middle of nowhere?

What made me cry on the inside, though, was in Resurrection F, Gohan said something along the lines of "I hope I still remember how to turn Super Saiyan."

I was more concerned that he couldn't use the unlocked potential from the Elder Kaioshin either, and he has to power up with SSJ

I'm pretty sure its right next to where he lived as a child. At least that's what it looks like in the old GBA game.

Wasn't there a shrine dedicated to Grandpa Gohan near his house in Z? The same one Goku Jr ended up finding in Hero's legacy when he went searching for the Dragon Ball?

Why are people complaining about Gohan when clearly it should be Goku and Vegeta they should be complaining about. Gohan stays true to his character and development and for some reason the series treats it as a bad thing. Goku has turned into Peter from Family Guy and any growth Vegeta had during the Buu saga is gone, never to be seen.

^ Vegeta getting no more growth? His interaction with Cabba in SUPER is a thing that happened.

Post by: Blackhook on July 18, 2016, 10:02:32 AM
Which felt very cheap. Because he still has this "rivalry" with Goku and pretty much always treated every other Saiyan like trash, but then suddenly he treats Cabba differently??? That's not growth, that's inconsistent writing. I don't expect great writing from DB of all things, but I wanna be able to enjoy it without getting angry at every line Goku and Vegeta spout.

Having watched Dragon Ball Super and reread the Buu Saga, I really don't like how they potray and having always Goku finishing every single and at the same time wasting a lot of time in Super.

In Buu Saga, everyone was so desperate to kill Buu and I recall Goku even regret not finishing Fat Buu when he should have. And when Buu finally got he's Super form, Goku himself admitted he can't beat Super Buu in his current state and had to leave it to Goten and Trunks, but even that failed because Gotenks wasted too much time when they could've just straight way vaporize him when they could have. Just gonna skip to the end, Goku is forced to rely on everyone just to kill Buu and I kinda like that, even Hercule had character progression throughout it but in the end Goku was the one who finished the job as always(minus Cell saga in which Gohan killed off Cell in the end).

Every single [parasitic bomb] that happened start from Cell saga was because the character flaw who are so powerful are so egoistic, bullshitting and dragging their tail around that they deserved to get whooped in the ass in the end.

And then we have Dragon Ball Super, Goku's always stays super excited on fighting every single strong people which always drags out even against Frieza. Tbh I don't really see him do that much in Z, or I just kinda forgot. I feel like any character development in Buu Saga was just lost. Dragon Ball Super to me is always about power up-ing and OH IM SO EXCITED I WANNA FIGHT STRONG PEOPLE which is starting to get boring. Goku forcing Monaka to fight him was just painful to watch if you ask me even if it's just a misunderstanding.

Also God Saiyan Goku and Beerus clashing cosmic shacking punch was like the most boring and draggiest thing I've ever watched in a shonen anime.

Highly recommended, but don't expect it to be like One Punch Man.

It's doing its own thing.

I just finished watching all of Naruto--including Shippuden--yesterday. It was better than I remember it being. I did skip the filler episodes, thankfully. There were so many. The problem with the filler in Naruto was how confusing it made the canon episodes. Characters would act strange--especially Sasuke--and the events wouldn't align with the continuity of the other episodes. Anyway, Naruto was okay. The war arc took way too long.
