I've started watching "C The Money of Soul And Possibility Control". Currently after first episode, seems cool and interesting so far.

Decided to rewatch some episodes of Nightwalker.

Boy, it has not held up well at all...

...When Larry the reploid accountant goes maverick of his own accord, he's certainly formidable during tax season, but he isn't going to provide X the challenge needed to make him grow as a warrior and reach his potential.

I have time to catch up on some anime now, so right now my watch list is:
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 just started airing, and I am excited to get into it as I read the manga

I guess all I can really say is it isn't exactly what I'd expect out of a $4.4M game

It doesn't even have mouth animations

Done watching the "Princess no Rondo" season. Moving on to the "F" season of Zero no Tsukaima.


Fear me.

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).

I can't believe Unicorn still isn't done. Goddamn.

On a separate note, I really have to continue After War Gundam X.

Never finished either... I'll do it this time though.

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.


What happens in Vegas stays on Youtube. I also stream on Twitch from time to time.

Yes, it really is.

But through all its weirdness and lolmagicsaliva, I do applaud it for being different; good different.

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.

Shame I lack the money to buy the newest english volumes. : <

Though yeah, the dub of Excel Saga is [tornado fang]ing great.

I'm barely able to watch anime lately. I'm only just now catching up to

Hataraku Maou-Sama!
Shingeki no Kyojin
To Aru Kagaku no Railgun S
Suisei no Gargantia

And I'm still on Spice & Wolf and Steins;Gate.

Soul Eater (dub)

Not sure what to make of it so far, but one thing's for sure: The Excalibur episodes are [tornado fang]ing amazing and random.

Touhou (because there are actually good episodes made for the series) and Kannazuki no Miko again. Because I love it.  <3

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.

That's a shame.

It's too bad Soul Eater couldn't be like FMA: Brotherhood, where it followed the manga beat-by-beat.

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.
[/spoiler]

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