[Shade]

Damn. On Ep 9 so far of RahX, and Ayato is surrounded by pussy. Goddman, I wouldnt know what to do. He's got;

Reika (Undead Enigma bitch who wants to fuck)
Megumi (Young nextdoor neighbor bitch who wants to fuck)
Haruka (Older seasoned bitch, who wants to fuck)
Quon (Weird bitch, who wants to fuck)
The short haired fine ass bitch who lost who family, who wants to fuck
The hot pilot bitch, and her comrade with the big tits, who wanna fuck.

Etc, etc.

[Wellman]

After 19 eps of E7 I have come to one conclusion, holland is an asshole.

I actually got that vibe off him in the first two minutes of the first episode. But apparently he will prove it down the line in a bigger way than him just acting like a dick.

[Gasaraki]

Yeah he does, but the good thing is that he, like most of the characters, grows as the series goes on.

[WasFemto]

I've been thinking about picking up Rax down the line, since ADV released the thinpak awhile back.

[WasFemto]

Just finished wathcing eps. 8 and 9 of Haruhi. I'm really digging this show. I hope Geneon picks it up.

Loved the Phoenix Wright reference. Shit was too good.

[PsychoSquall]

Figured I should post this here:
http://www.rightstuf.com/1-800-338-6827/catalogmgr/lv=DcuZsmX5t1oIFQZ/browse/item/55063/4/153/100

Ive never seen it anywhere under $150. A steal if you ask me.

I love that series. I'm still pissed that the ending credit sequence song for the final ep is not the same extended version that was in the VHS version!

What reference? Was that during that 4 minute session of Yuki reading with some noise in the background?

[Master Chibi]

Am I the only one who doesn't like Harahui? I usually love the aggressive / bitchy types in anime, but Harahui totally rubs me the wrong way. In fact I find her pretty damn annoying, and I feel sorry for Kyon for having to deal with the bitch.

Also, yes, Holland is an asshole, but it will all come to light later on, just you wait.

Also Also, I haven't seen Mushishishishishis past episode 13.

Also also also, what the hell happened to Magikanno?

;D

[DannyCat]

What reference? Was that during that 4 minute session of Yuki reading with some noise in the background?
No, the reference was in episode 8 where she was going over the evidence.

And don't worry about Yuki; her slow scenes in episode 9 are more than compensated for by her scenes in episode 10. :wow:

wth? You liked her originally didn't you? What changed your opinion so drastically O_o

[Zor]

Yeah I love me some Tenchi. It was the first anime I ever really go into. That does suck about the ending song. This will be my first time watching the Universe dvd's. I had them on VHS as well, but never got the dvd's until now. I also got the Tenchi in Tokyo dvd's, which I've only saw bits and pieces of before.

[WasFemto]

Rightstuf.com is having a 33% of sale on all Dark Horse manga.

I think I'm gonna pick up vol.2&3 of Lady Snowblood.

Hopefully there is a bigger sale down the road so I can pick up the volumes 6-whatever is out at the time of Berserk.

[Gasaraki]

holy shit awesome, I hope it lasts til friday. Need my paycheck =(

She is pretty much an unlikable character, self-absorbed, domineering, and selfish. I'm sure that will change in ways over time. It has to.

Man, older Asahina is hot.

And thanks to whoever got me randomly curious about Black Lagoon. It started off as "heh, mindless violence" and just started to subtly get deeper until eventually ep. 7 happened, which is one of my favorite episodes of anything ever. BALLS, SON.

[ReggieHadoken]

Picked up the following manga:

Naruto vol. 10
Kenshin vol. 27
I"s vol. 7

Also got the July issue of Shonen Jump. They had a 53 page preview of Buso Renkin, a manga that is done by the creator of Kenshin. I liked what I read. It's about a kid that gets killed and is brought back to life and gets to use an alchemy sword to dispose of... wait for it... homonculous. The sword he uses is called Buso Renkin. I must may have to pick up vol. 1 when it comes out in August.

[Gasaraki]

Warp, if it was from SRK, it was probably me, I mentioned it a few posts ago =)

As for Haruhi, she doesn't change if you've seen episode 9. You'll notice during the episode previews Haruhi mentiones the number of the next episode and Kyon corrects her, what she's saying is the chronological order while Kyon says the ACTUAL number. So for the preview for episode 9, she called it episode 14 which would be the last since it's a 14 episode series.

I imagine there'd be much more change if you read the novels since there's like 6 of them or something.

[DannyCat]

She is pretty much an unlikable character, self-absorbed, domineering, and selfish. I'm sure that will change in ways over time. It has to.She's amusing to watch, though. After seeing episode 2 a couple months ago, I recall my two-word analysis of her character being that she was "brilliantly insane".

Actually being with her might not be wholly pleasant, but it'd sure be interesting.

[Warpticon]

Well, she's certainly amusing. If she wasn't, it'd be a pretty boring show, and she makes it what it is. And her blatant insensitivity heightens the intensity of her rare selfless moments. That doesn't make her likable, though. She pretty much doesn't have any evident redeeming qualities aside from being good looking (which really doesn't come across that well, either, a lot of the time). And at first her "insanity" was pretty unconvincing. It wasn't until ep 5 that I was really sold on the show largely for those reasons.

[Hunter D]

stay away from Glass no Kantai. I have seen only one ep so far and it was horrible. I have heard from others that the other 3 eps or just as bad. Watch at your own discretion.

[tempest]

Just finished wathcing eps. 8 and 9 of Haruhi. I'm really digging this show. I hope Geneon picks it up.

Loved the Phoenix Wright reference. Shit was too good.



i doubt geneon pics up haruhi seems like adv show or maybe funi.
i see either adv having that or school rumble.

i see geneon getting honey clover and and few other shows. oh yea geneon has
Black Lagoon

peace out

[WasFemto]

MANABU-KUN IS A FUCKIN BEAST!!! :nunchuck: :pray:

[Gasaraki]

sweet, depending on how it turns out, Black Lagoon might be worth buying.

BTW, did anyone watch Kurau Phantom Memory when it came out last year or so? It's a great show and I heard someone liscenced it, but it's been so long I almost forgot about it and I realized there are still no DVDs from anyone for it.

[Master Chibi]

Harahui was always interesting, but only in the sense that (and this was only for the begining of the series) you were curious as to what she'd be doing or saying next. Once everything was established (plot / setting / characters) she instantly became my least favorite character. I don't like her selfish attitude, I don't like how she treats anyone in the show (especially Kyon), and frankly I'd smack the bitch and be done with her if it was up to me.

About the one reason I'm still watching (even though I KNOW IT WILL NOT HAPPEN) is the hope that there's even a tiny, tiny, tiny little bit of romantic involvment going on between Harahui and Kyon.

Otherwise Tsurura (green haired gal) is my favorite, and older Asahina was absurdly hot, as is Yuki somehow.

<3

[orka]

man, i haven't posted here in weeks. D:

i also didnt realize there were already 2 volumes of mai-hime out in the u.s. until few minutes ago. imma go buy after work today.

Yeah, I getcha, and I agree for the most part.

And yes, the future Mikuru was incredible, and I like the "little" hint that they get involved haha

[Brandon Lee]

Does anyone know where I can find complete volumes of Naruto?

[Hunter D]

You know how to use IRC BL?

[Brandon Lee]

Yeah.

[Hunter D]

gotlurk.net my friend.

[Brandon Lee]

Thanks.

[Gasaraki]

In fact, just use lurk for every manga you ever need =D

Anyone watching Jyu Oh Sei? It's lookin pretty good so far, I'm on episode 4 right now

Tsuruya is adorable! Even if she's doomed to be a non-character.

[GGL-steve]

Looks like the second part of Tsubasa Chronicle has started back which is great, and Fate Stay Night is keeping me busy. I wonder how long Tsubasa Chronicle is expected to go for?

[Stabby]

Haruhi is garbage.

Only show worth watching this season is Higurashi.

[Master Chibi]

I caught up with Higurashi as well, I rather like it, great stuff.

@ Warpticon:

Tsuruya is adorable! Even if she's doomed to be a non-character.

So true.

Seems the likes of 2 / 4 chan have dubbed her LOL-Tan. Haha.

<3

[Hunter D]

blood+ my friend. One of the best action anime I have ever seen.

[Warpticon]

Haruhi is garbage.

Only show worth watching this season is Higurashi.

I can see why you would think that, though I disagree. After about 3 eps, I was thinking that pretty much myself.

[Gasaraki]

Higurashi is pretty good, but I HATE the type of series where it's a bunch of alternate events to one story. It REALLY gets on my nerves, and then of course, it's just morbid the whole way through, nothing good happens, it kinda feels pointless to watch it. I like the mystery aspect, but the resolutions are killing it for me.

[tempest]

Haruhi is garbage.

now i'm not big fan of harui,but i wont say higurashi is only good show that came out this or comming out.
Black Lagoon / ergo proxy/Mushishi.
and there few shows thats going start in fall time frame thats got me interested.

Tsubasa Chronicle is 3 seasons long and they been license already by funi.


i think stabby meant the new shows that started this season and blood tv kinda started in 05, but its still pretty good ,and god help us all since sony license the show.

mi hime dvds come out july/sept/nov jan/


i hope funi channel takes off since cartoonetwork is dicking E7 putting it on 1:30am .....

[Bowling Pin]

What reference? Was that during that 4 minute session of Yuki reading with some noise in the background?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zRhB7xgdcfc

Scope the Gyakuten Saiban TGS show special linked to on the same page if you still can't see the reference.

Oh, and Yuki is a fucking beast.

Are you kidding?

1. Four to five lolis.

2. Barely any romance.

3. Blood.

4. Pain.

5. Torture.

6. Creepy.

7. Everyone dies.

8. Everyone dies again.

9. Everyone dies a THIRD time.

Apparently you don't know Stabby very well. I'm like, 99% sure he meant exactly what he said

snip
First, fuck loli I hate that shit and those girls freak me out :wasted:

Second, I hate that everyone just fucking dies and that's it, fuck that.

[Master Chibi]

I meant loli's in contrast against the content of the show, which works ;p.

As for everyone just keeling over, well that's always a good thing, what the hell is wrong with you?

>:P!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?

(Let's keep replying to one another so that this wonderful avatar we're wearing goes on for two pages <3).

[orka]

i see double @_@



...

and impulse buy is awesome. while buying mai-hime vol. 1 + box and vol. 2 at best buy earlier, i also bought kannazuki no miko vol. 1 + box for no other reason other than that the main two characters are extremely hot lesbians that wants each other (physically!!) and the op (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BwLk2CsJq18)/ed (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hd8_KC-fYpQ) feature really catchy songs by kotoko. o yea and the box came with a cool pencil board.

yes irrational.

[Master Chibi]

Have you seen Eureka 7 yet Orkadoo?

[orka]

i was thinking about buying eureka when it first came out like 2 months ago, but i think i ended up passing it cus i didn't have much money to spend back then or something. and i have a tendency where once i miss a initial release, i just end up not buying until the boxset comes out. it's weird, but true. this is why i still don't own a single disc of champloo.

dunno. i suppose i coulda bought it today. there were vol.1 with collectors box still lying around too.

sorry. lesbians and explosions ended up winning the battle. :(

[Gasaraki]

Kannazuki no Miko SUCKS. I thought it might possibly get intresting or that at least the blatant yuri would keep me intrested, but no, it just sucks all the way to the lack-luster end.

[orka]

i have bought many dvd's in the past that i have no idea why i did. :(
the list includes:

mezzo (tv)
comic party (ova)
sakura taisen (tv)
those who hunt elves <-- both seasons

^ i collected all goddamn dvd's along with the box for those

nurse witch komugi-chan
sakura taisen: ecole de paris
devil fighter kocho <-- most likely my worst purchase ever and also the only anime dvd that i have ever sold back

...

and the list goes on and on. but i'm also a collector as much as a viewer, so i guess it's ok. and all i have to say for now is... LESBIANS!!!

[Master Chibi]

I think it's about time your broaden your viewing field, because save for maybe, 3 of those series, that absolutely blows.

;p

[orka]

what do you mean broaden my viewing field? you already know that i watch lots of different stuff and prefer anime with substance. :(

it just turns out that i have weird tendency to buy even subpar shows when i see them sitting on shelf with cool box or something. so yea there's human nature and clever marketing for ya. :(

[Warpticon]

I hear Kannazuki no Miko translates to "Hey, what if Utena really sucked?"

[tempest]

i see double @_@

i had skip mai artbox..it was ughh and flimsy too but yea the show rocked, but insatnd of kannazuk i would had skipped that and went for Kamichu instead thats very nice show.

but hey its your money and your taste.

[orka]

yea mai-hime box is pretty bad. it's actually hardly a box. i was kinda surprised since it's a bandai release. maybe they'll come out with a better box by volume 6? :(

i didn't know that kamichu was out in the states though. i'll check it out next time.

[angelpalm]

so whats hawt right now

is that new witchblade anime any good?

[Gasaraki]

I've mostly heard really bad things about witchblade, I haven't watched it personally though.

And man, people like Mai-hime? I couldn't get into that show at all, it was pretty meh, and the character designs REALLY bothered me.

[ReggieHadoken]

Well Borders called me Thursday and I went in to pick up my reserved copy of Dragon Ball Z manga vol. 26. It has taken me 3 years but at long last, one of my all-time fav mangas is complete. All 42 books (DB books 1-16, DBZ 1-26) are in my collection. Interesting, though, in the US manga of DBZ Vegito is atcually called Vegerot (combination of Vegeta and Kakarot). I wondered if he was called the same thing in the Japanese version but I didn't read anything on Wiki that confirmed this.

Anyone know where I can find scans for Neko Majin? Or are there any plans to bring this manga to the states?

EDIT: Nevermind, I found a place. =)

Read chapter 310 of Naruto. Suck city, man.

[WasFemto]

If you havrn't already, peep the new chapter of Berserk. The bnext few chapters are probably going to the most beastly yet


bed time....

EDIT: All I gotta say is FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK!

So Animeigo has this kick ass sale on their products, KOR, UY and YUA but I'm saving $ since I'll probably be out of a job for a month(at the very most hopefully) htat ends at the end of August. Of all fucking times this shit drops. ARGH!!!

KOR is being disconitnued btw after July.

FUCK!

[tempest]

yea mai-hime box is pretty bad. it's actually hardly a box. i was kinda surprised since it's a bandai release. maybe they'll come out with a better box by volume 6? :(

i didn't know that kamichu was out in the states though. i'll check it out next time.

i doubt that bandai remakes box for mai hime for last vol,and be honesty almost all bandai's boxes are meidcore,only artboxs that were nice are E7 and cowboybebop rest are umm ugh,.
but if want box go with mai hime you can check out madman site i;m sure there mai hime box might be allot different than r1 one and more sturdy


and yes kamichu is very nice


about mai hime well guess different strokes for different folks although i don't mind charcater designs alll that much after seeing gank/monster
i don;t judge show by designs but by content and maihime content pretty good. by the way whats so bad with charcater designs of mai hime?


yea femto i saw that license of orange road expired but really whose going pick it up and way? i mean i have the first set with the thick box* and i'm pretty happay hope maybe animigo goes after touch
next or older show thats where they need go for since alot compaines skip them couse of length and outed animation.

yea femto

[DannyCat]

Having played the games, I can report they're noticeably better if you've played the games first. Unfortunately, they decided to license, translate, and publish the anime over here while forgetting almost nobody's able to play the game series. :sweat:

[L.one H.iryu S.aga]

Does anybody have any links to Battle Royale?

I haven't been able to find any sites that still scan it since Stop Tazmo cancelled it. I'm just looking for Vol. 12 - 15 A.K.A. the rest of it.

[orka]

Having played the games, I can report they're noticeably better if you've played the games first. Unfortunately, they decided to license, translate, and publish the anime over here while forgetting almost nobody's able to play the game series. :sweat:

well... i actually like sakura taisen games (i've only played 1 and 2 on the psp though) but the anime just ended up being really dull for me. not really sure why. and yea, by your logic i probably shouldn't have watched "ecole de paris" since i haven't played sakura taisen 3. but i think that one i would have hated anyhow. :(

tempest, i don't own many bandai releases so i didn't know. i always assumed of them as one of the larger distributor though (like, maybe behind adv and geneon?). dunno. so maybe they aren't as great as i originally expected... on the other hand it's kinda funny since how i used to think funimation was a really mediocre distributor, yet some of their releases in this past year changed my mind. i hear they still translate stuff somewhat poorly tho.

and dunno. i personally like mai-hime. like, yea it's definitely not kind of stuff i'd rewatch the entire series three times around or anything. but it had its charm and it stood out for a time when moe was oversaturating the market. i particularly don't think the designs in mai-hime is ugly. some of the stuff in mai-otome was definitely "wtf" though. but even you can sort of get past that once you assume that it's meant to be a campy sentai-themed action.

Did you try www.manga-sketchbook.com or www.tokyotosho.com?

[Stabby]

Whoa, I'll qualify myself. Shows this season I've seen have been Haruhi, Black Lagoon, Pokan, Kiba, Soul Link and Higurashi. Shows that I conciously haven't watched are Blood+, Ergo Proxy, Fate Stay Night.

Haruhi didn't hold my interest. I've seen 4 episodes, and by the end of those I wanted to beat the shit out of her, not watch her crazy antics.

Black Lagoon I've seen 6 episodes of. Levi is a fucking ridiculous character, Rock is silly too, black guy is just uninteresting and the computer guy is not even present. It still hasn't gone anywhere, and I can't even imagine something interesting happening to any of them. Rock joined for arbitrary reasons, and the other crew memebers (beside Levi) seem mostly normal.

Kiba sucks almost as bad as Soul Link.

I like Pokan. I shouldn't, but I do. And it makes me feel bad.

Blood+ I didn't bother with, since I heard the beginning sucks, and sucks bad. Even if it gets better later on, I don't want to watch 10 episodes to justify it. Even Gasaraki thinks Ergo Proxy is boring, I already knew about FSN before it began (and the adaptation of Tsukihime was horrible).

Higurashi has an interesting format, and is a suspense-ish series that doesn't piss me off. Each of the story arcs has some value to the overall story, even if everyone does wind up dead in the end. And each arc is different from the last and best of all, I can't tell what will happen by the end. It has its fair share of problems (i.e. Japanese don't know how to make stuff scary. "Oh no, school-girls~!") but overall the series is really something I haven't seen before. I like it as much as I enjoyed Elfen Lied. Not everyone may be able to appreciate it, but for my tastes (extremely picky and specialized) I love it.

But then again, my favourite anime of all time is currently Law of Ueki.

[orka]

But then again, my favourite anime of all time is currently Law of Ueki.

seriously?

not like i have any objections but i find that rather surprising.

[Stabby]

Ueki is an utterly amazing satire of shonen anime.

[Hokuto no Jeffro]

I really haven't watched ANY anime for a year or two. All I do is read manga. It's just better. The only thing I'm watching right now is E7. Damn it you bastards it's actually kind of good....

[L.one H.iryu S.aga]

Did you try www.manga-sketchbook.com or www.tokyotosho.com?

Nearly all of MSB's links are broken and Tokyotosho was a dry run because of that.

Appreciate your help nonetheless.

[Gasaraki]

Whatever I might have said bad about Ergo Proxy, which I don't remember, cause I thuoght it had always intrested me, I take back at this point because i find it pretty intresting.

about mai hime well guess different strokes for different folks although i don't mind charcater designs alll that much after seeing gank/monster
i don;t judge show by designs but by content and maihime content pretty good. by the way whats so bad with charcater designs of mai hime?

Well, the character design didn't stop me from watching it, I finished it all, but I just never really liked it. The main character annoyed me heavily both in appearance and character as well.

As for the why I didn't like the designs, I guess... I have no idea. I just hate the artstyle. Irrational I know, but I'm not good at explaining this kind of thing, sorry.

[Master Chibi]

I enjoyed Mai Hime (read: NOT LIKED) plenty until they gave me the biggest pussy ass cop out of an ending in the literal written history of all anime created on this earth.

I didn't go NEAR Mai-Otome mind you, that was pure shit before it even started.

I'd like to see Fate / Stay sooner or later.

And Ah! My Goddess TV.

And Aria.

:O

no cop out ending would be R.O.D tv well maybe not cop out just rushed ending

[Master Chibi]

Nah, R.O.D. TV was a bit rushed, but hardly a cop out.

Mai-Hime's ending was flat out pussy ass bitchin out. What finally made the series good is what they do away with in a fuckin cheesey ass 18 second long sequence that pretty much UTTERLY DESTROYS what slight credability the show had going (save for Haruka, who is my saving grace~).

;p.

[orka]

uh no.

natsuki/nao/midori (i like shizuru too, sort of) were clearly the best. except they turned midori into a weird ninja in mai-otome for whatever reason.

MATERIALIZE!!

[Master Chibi]

Man Haruka went and kicked a fucking tank in Hime. She didn't give a shit what was going on. If she had powers she would have cleared house easy.

In conclusion you suck foreverz.

[Hunter D]

I'd like to see Fate / Stay sooner or later.


I heard that this show is horrible.

[ShadowHawkv2]

just finished watch eureka seven and wtf i dont know how it kept me interested. But it was ok.

Anyways i need a new anime to watch anybody got a good recommendation i want action but with good story, but more action. Mind you im already watching bleach and naruto.

[orka]

only nubs would say fate/stay night is bad.

it's pretty good, regardless if people are familiar with the game or not.

and about haruka... eh, dunno... she is okay i guess. she was sort of a braindead character in mai-hime but she was portrayed slightly better in mai-otome. she was one of the weakest out of the main otomes though. meh, anyhow... materialize! (http://youtube.com/watch?v=0Ysdp-_8jdY)

[Master Chibi]

You're out of your mind, she looks like a Sweedish body builder in that, absolutely awful. Can't even believe you bothered to watch that garbage. Yikes. You should know better ;P.

[orka]

i did not bring up haruka, it was you. :p

actually, she sort of did get screwed over in mai-otome with a crappy outfit and weapon that gave her a rather brutish image. i guess they based it on the edginess of her personality? still, some of the characters' outfits were way worse (i.e. nao).

natsuki and shizuru (http://youtube.com/watch?v=bH6fMB5MMGU) on the other hand got pretty cool outfits.

[tempest]

I heard that this show is horrible.

chib i'll explain what i mean bout R.O,D tv later . peace out

[Hunter D]

anime academy was where I heard this. People there have been very negative of this show the last couple of weeks. They also said its not worth it to sit through all the shitty episodes just to watch the few great ones that the show has.

Edit-anime academy is a harsh site that pulls no punches in their reviews and discussions about shows. Don't even bother trying to convince the people there that a show is good if you don't have valid points about said show.

[Rodimus]

just started to get into eureka 7. where can i d/l episodes??

[Master Chibi]

i did not bring up haruka, it was you. :p

actually, she sort of did get screwed over in mai-otome with a crappy outfit and weapon that gave her a rather brutish image. i guess they based it on the edginess of her personality? still, some of the characters' outfits were way worse (i.e. nao).

natsuki and shizuru (http://youtube.com/watch?v=bH6fMB5MMGU) on the other hand got pretty cool outfits.

Gah, I still can't believe you watched that from start to finish. Pure fucking trash.

I cry for you Orkadoo.

:(

[orka]

i need not your tears or pity, just gimme more money so i can buy more anime this month! >:O

and mai-otome is not trash!! *runs into the sunset*

who?... the only opinions i take with grain salt is regs on anime on dvd, * note i don't believe them 100% all the time.

[orka]

i could understand somebody entrusting others' opinions on a anime series if it is something that has been out for a while... as in the person having to make a big decision to buy multiple dvd's (or download a batch torrent, etc.). but in the case of fate/stay night, it is a still ongoing series so i personally think it wouldn't hurt to download few episodes and actually watch them yourself before prematurely arriving to a decision.

[Warpticon]

Oh my God. Nana is awesome.

It's almost like a girly half-Beck.

[ReggieHadoken]

My friend had vol. 1 of Ah! My Goddess. Man, that was good stuff. Good, fun romantic comedy. I'd wanted to see this for the longest time when I saw AMVs of it. The first 3 eps did not disappoint.

I also saw Cowboy Bebop the movie. Great plot, slick animation and awesome music. The song "Ask DNA" was boss.

My buddy let me borrow Spriggan. Gonna check that out soon.

[WasFemto]

Hope you don't have your hopes up.


As far as Ergo Proxy goes, it was only one episode but I could see where it was going. I know it's premature but it just felt too been there done that for me...
maybe I'll watch more of it down the line.

[pimp2303]

What is gantz about

[Gasaraki]

just started to get into eureka 7. where can i d/l episodes??
1. Go to Nanashi's website for torrents, just google "nanashi"
2. For the more recent stuff, just use www.tokyotosho.com and search for "eureka"
3. If you don't like torrents n stuff, use Youtube. I believe they have at the moment, 1-38(of 50 total) or something.

[L.one H.iryu S.aga]

What is gantz about

Greatness.

[WasFemto]

Anybody heard of Battle Royale2 Blitz Royale? I saw this at tosho. Is it the name of a new Battle Royale manga or is Illuminati-manga just naming BR something else?

Regardless....Touch is the fucking shit. Finished vol.6 gonna start vol.7 tomorrow. Taking my time with this series as well as Adachi's other works. Them shits is too fucking beastly.

[DannyCat]

well... i actually like sakura taisen games (i've only played 1 and 2 on the psp though) but the anime just ended up being really dull for me. not really sure why. and yea, by your logic i probably shouldn't have watched "ecole de paris" since i haven't played sakura taisen 3. but i think that one i would have hated anyhow. :(
Eh, I liked 'em. Not to a "whoa, this anime's good!" extent, but still enjoyable. Not as good as the games themselves, though. Which is why THAT is what they should have ported over.

ST3's my favorite out of the series, primarily for the presence of Erica Fontaine. And because ST4 was short. A bit wider than usual, but short. More like an OAV presentation than the season-length format of the main games.

[Master Chibi]

i need not your tears or pity, just gimme more money so i can buy more anime this month! >:O

and mai-otome is not trash!! *runs into the sunset*

Mai-Otome is the purest form of anime trash there is, SON!!

If someone gave me that for my birthday I'd melt it on the spot, while making sure the present giver received third degree burns for ever bringing it within a breath of my existence!

Also, STOP BUYING ANIME. Forever.

I will cry for you until you realize the ERRORS OF YOUR WAYS!!!!!!!!!

:**(

[orka]

how would you know trash if you haven't watched it tho? ;(

and fans actually buy stuff... well, official stuff.

[Master Chibi]

:sad: how would you know trash if you haven't watched it tho? ;(

Man you can tell from just the look of the damn show that it's just shit.

Hell, it's one of those shows that gives anime a bad name.

And I really mean that.

I hope you're happy (read: MISERABLE AS HELL).

Also, I buy stuff too, but you're not a fan because you watched all of Otome.

[Shin Akuma]

I finished Azumanga Daioh a couple of days ago...

And I have got to say that it is one of THE best animes ever created.

This is just an amazingly funny, dare I say, it's even better than Love Hina.

Lots of funny moments, not to mention memorable characters.

Tomo/Chiyo/Sakaki/Kagura <3.

Oh and the dim-witted Osaka <3.

#1 on my list.

Although, I'd like to see an ACTUAL movie of Daioh, rather than some 6 minute short that doesnt really explain anything since it is bascially a preview for the series to come.

Nonetheless, Daioh = ANIME GREATNESS

This shit is too good. Hopefully this gets picked up some time soon,probably by DH since the have Crying Freeman. Hopefully Koike doesn't censor shit this time(ala Crying Freeman).

You all need to read this. The art is gorgeous, plenty of action and machismo, and comedy "Stick something in her ass" :rofl:

I'll probably peep it now tho'. Does Manga still have the license for the anime?

to those attending AX and/or volunteering:

Anyword on the New hokuto no ken movie being shown other than the obvious place If you volunteer? post up although I REALLY doubt they 'll show it as this years exclusive. SDCC might have a better chance at it.

[PsychoSquall]

I just saw the live-action japanese film Shinobi, and immediately noticed that it was rediculously similar to the anime Basilisk. Then I found out that the movie was intentionally a live-action version of Basilisk...I never knew that before!

wtf? I didn't know about that, I hope they DO show it, I'd love to see it. Wish I could help, did you already try asking at the AX06 forums?

[dji]

hmm does anyone else keep track of the anime they've watched? i have a list on my HD somewhere, but i know i've watched 1500+ episodes/movies in the past year. and i can't believe i still have more than that to watch.

...and so begins the "how much anime have you seen" pissing contest?

[Chozen1]

no need to ask in AX forums as I already know where they Will be showing it (if you'd volunteer/staff for as long as I, then you would understand) however, I was just curious whether or not anyone knew if it would be showin in the theather as one of the con exclusive films.

Oh, I misunderstood the question, I thought you were just asking if they would really show it or not at all.

I dunno, i enjoyed it alot.

Anyone have any reccomendations for anime that's simillar to Daioh or Love Hina.?

[orka]

I personally don't think Azumanga Daioh and Love Hina are too similar...

But if you like Azumanga Daioh, watch School Rumble.

And if you like Love Hina you will probably like Negima, as they are both originally written by Ken Akamatsu. Shows like Maburaho or Girls Bravo might be good too. I'm not really into that sort of thing so you might find otherwise, though.

[ShinkuuR]

Waitaminute waitaminute there's MAD BULL 34 MANGA????? :amazed: Where was I for this shit?? Mad Bull is god tier!

That's it, I'm gonna start posting on this thread again. I've been reading alot more manga than anime lately(Though I am partial to Gankutsuou, the count's a badass), I'm almost finished the Ippo thats on Stabby's site and I'm caught up with Berserk and Gantz. What else should I check out(anime and manga wise), and where can I get the Tenjo Tenge chapters past 77?

...And is Eureka 7 REALLY worth watching? I just can't get into that shit.

S.a.g.a:Where did the Gantz thread go?

[orka]

mmm, i made a tenjho tenge thread a while back but people stopped posting in it so maybe it got deleted (not sure). the manga is currently up to chapter 94.

there are no means of directly downloading the chapters other than raws, but i believe fugu still releases his translations via irc. but i'm not sure what the channel name is. i'd help you but i don't have any translated chapterss on my hdd.

and semi-spoilerish stuff:

after the big battle with souhaku and the "f", there is going to be another brief flashback arc about 4 or 5 chapters long.

[Akuma4Real]

What!? Definitely gotta see this.

I know it's been out for awhile now, but Full Metal Panic: The Second Raid OVA was released. Hope they do another season, FMP is just too good. School Rumble is still my #1 with FMP being a close 2nd.

[Master Chibi]

Anyone know where I can d/l the first season of School Rumble ;p?

I can't download the second at all because wannabe is down.

They don't actuall host on their site. search for wannabe fansubs and you'll find the site, as well as torrents for season one. And there's at least one other group (your-mom or something like that) subbing season 2 of School Rumble.

I only saw eps 1-9 of Azumanga, and found it amusing, and wanted to keep wathcing it. I like School Rumble considerably more, personally.

Just got done reading Kenshin vol. 27. Kenshin is going to reveal a new move that I've never seen called the Dragon Howl Strike. And he turned his sakabato over to the cutting side. Snap! Enishi is going to get cut the F up!!

Read the first story of Neko Majin. Freaking hilarious. I hope Shonen Jump decideds to bring it over here. If they brought Dr. Slump and and Sand Land here, they can bring over Neko Majin.

[Gasaraki]

Er, RKenshin *SPOILERS* about his "new" move:




It's not a new move, I'm almost positive he's used it before. Anyway, it's a manuever that simply generates a loud sound from the very quick unsheatheing of his sword. What ends up happening is since Enishi's senses are greatly heightened, it basically blows his ears out.

Yeah, I need to find the manga volumes somewhere, but most scanslation site are really anal about Kenshin.

Yes I did and was unimpressed. It was pretty funny though, I must admit.

and yes, E7 is REALLY worth watching, how many eps have you seen so far?.

I've only really paid attention to the first ep. The plot didn't seem like it was going anywhere and the main character had to much of a hard on for surfboards lol. If it gets alot better I start watching it again...

For Tenjo Tenge, stoptazmo.com that shit. They have the manga up to Fight 94(don't know if that's the most current, but it's the most convienent). And anything you can't find there(like Kenshin), try http://gh.ffshrine.org/manga for it.

Anyplace that has Kenshin scans is a good site. Thank for that. And yeah, Tenjo would be soooo much better if they skipped on all these damn flashbacks. I'm glad this one won't last FOR A WHOLE VOLUME though.

[Gasaraki]

Wait until AT LEAST episode 10 before you give up on it. The story starts moving on episode 7 and gradually picks up, then it just gets better and better.

[WasFemto]

Yes I did and was unimpressed. It was pretty funny though, I must admit.



NIGGA WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAATT? \

Where Curtis's head streaks blood on the train was one of the most "OMFG" moments.

Not saying MB34 is better than Berserk(that would be Vagabond...but then that's better than anything, moving along) as a whole but that scene was too beastly.

Sleepy > Guts tho'.

[Zor]

Well I've been meaning to watch Eureka Seven for a while now, but I've been so busy watching/reading other series that I haven't been able to find the time. Finally though, my Special Edition Vol. 1 arrived today and I watched the first 5 eps. All I can say is wow, I've really been missing out. I already love this series and I'm only 5 eps into it. It's so well done. Without a doubt, this is the refreshing change of pace that I've been yearning for in an anime lately. I'm also loving the box & all the extra's. It's awesome.

[Gasaraki]

Yes, another fan to see the light that is... Eureka seveN :rock:

Monster>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Eureka Seven

I'm up to ep. 10 on Eureka Seven, and so far I really cannot see what all the hype is about.

Renton has to be the dumbest 14 yr. old ever; and Eureka... NO chick in the history of mankind was ever that clueless in matters of sexuality (unless she's trying to play that "I'm-too-pure-and-innocent-to-know" card).

Edit note: I will say though, the music in Eureka7 is good. There. LOL

[#reload]

i didn't watch eureka 7, but i heard it gets a lot better towards the middle of the series

just finished tsukihime... liked it a lot, but that's maybe only because i like melty blood. gonna start downloading fate/stay night tonight.

edit: just watched an episode of fate/stay on some random website.. first impressions are reaaaaaally good, i'll be expecting a lot.

since this is my first post in this thread, i'll introduce myself by saying that i seen bebop, champloo, chrno crusade, peacemaker, appleseed movie, and finished tsukihime today. not much, but hey, i just started getting into it. was a waste of my time, not recommended at all, and chrno crusade had potential but was really really average

Well I can't comment on this too much without giving heavy spoilers, but I'll just say that Renton and Eureka develop as characters very well. As for Eureka's personality, there's a story reason for it. Just keep with it, you'll have a very different opinion of them by the end.

thanks.

[Warpticon]

I just found my Fantastic Damage CD, and was reminded of two AMVs I wanted to do.

The first one is to Deep Space 9mm. It'd be to Cowboy Bebop or something similarly gun-heavy and space-themed, and would be modeled after the original video for the song, which is crazy itself:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dNJFq6VjHJI

Just thinking about how dope this video would be makes me jittery.

The second is for Now & Then, Here & There, and would be the ong The Bush, The Nang, The Front, and the Shit.

[SRKev]

I just recently got into reading Tenjo Tenge and I was wondering if anyone knows where I can DL some eps to watch?

[Master Chibi]

Fuck, just stick with the series, if they threw everything at you from the start you'd have a series that lasted two hours and then you'd be done with it.

I, of all people know that judging a show by the first handful of episodes is hardly anything to go by, especially when the show goes on for FIFTY episodes.

:\

[ReggieHadoken]

I didn't know Galabida Hotel had manga for DL. I couldn't stand waiting to see how I"s turned out. I've got the first 7 books already, so I DLed zip files for vols. 8-15. Man, I LOVE this manga. Freaking great stuff. One of my fav romantic comedies. I just may check out Video Girl Ai since it was done by the same dude behind I"s. Despite having read all of I"s via scans, I'm still going to be picking up books 8-15 as the come out.

Anyone else have any manga to recommend?

[Master Chibi]

Yeah what he said!!!!!!!!!! :sad:

Shinryukev: The Ten Ten anime is okay(it's easier for you to understand what's really going on in the first flashback than in the manga), but the manga is where it's at. The anime is censored a little and it only really last until the flashback ends, so you'll have to read the manga anyway...

Garasaki: I watch ep 10 of E7 the other night...it has gotten alot better from what it was, but I need to watch more eps to see if I want to stick with it. We'll see...

I just finished watching Fate Stay Night. It's one of the best anime I've seen in a while IMO. Check it out. It's not feminine but the main char is a pimp.

Should be easy enough to find torrents for it.

If its action that your looking for check out Black Lagoon. Its has a lot of action, basically gun play and a lot of trash talk which makes it funny. Its about a businessman who leaves his life behind and starts working with a bunch of mercenaries. Some say it has that Cowboy Bebop feel to it except with more blood and cursing.

I'm so envious. :bgrin: Gungrave is one of those animes you watch a couple of times to make sure you get everything right, the story is really good, but it feels as if it was two different series.
Gotta love their engrish names, they are hilarious after a while.

Anyway I'm trying to finish The Devil Lady series, I'm finding it to be incredibly boring though. I liked the original Devilman much more...

Yeah I jumped on that deal as well. Mine came yesterday, but the first vol. disc was defective so I had to mail it all back. Luckily, they had another one to send me.

[Master Chibi]

No prob, dude.

BTW that av is nice. Speaking of which, I saw ep 11 of Eureka Seven on [as]. Things just got weird. Some girl with pink hair that looks like a carbon copy of Eureka appeared at the end of the ep. So far I'm really liking this anime. Really different from your typical "kid piloting a giant robot/mech" anime.

Yeah, I thought she was weird / annoying at first, but I really did end up liking her alot.

Won't say how / why, but you'll see once things get rolling.

I'm also watching it on [as] too, I'm curious as to how they're handling it. For the most part everything works fine (the voices fit in my opinion). Though already they've begun to ruin things a little.

The pink haired girl's name is Anemone, in the original rendition it's pronounced Ann-nay-monay.

In the dub they pronounce it as Ann-nee-moany I believe, definitely not even close. Made me cringe a little.

I like her dubbed voice though.

^_^

[SlaughterX]

Anyone know where I can get Vol. 3 of JoJo's Bizaare Adventure for around $15 or so? I need this alst vol. to finish off my collection. It's one of the greatest anime of all time BTW, the last 3 vols at least (the original OAVs). I remember I downloaded them about a year or so ago and I kept wishing they would release them on DVD here int eh US and they already were, I thought the Super Techno Arts was jsut making a new series but only the first 3 vols are "new". :)

[Jaldaboath]

Anyone know where I can get Vol. 3 of JoJo's Bizaare Adventure for around $15 or so?I don't think you can get these for under $25 unless you want t get them used.

[Master Chibi]

God damn at @ Haruhui episode 12.

How the fuck they managed to get Kyoto to give them this much of a fuckin budget to ACTUALLY ANIMATE PEOPLE PLAYING INSTRUSMENTS REALISTICALLY in this show of all shows is beyond my comprehension, but man, just wow.

I certainly don't hate the gal anymore, that's for sure.

I still haven't seen ep.11, but this doesn't surprise me. The whole show's presentation reeks of high budget.

[BlackHeartKing]

Does anyone know where I can download "Samurai Deeper Kyo" online (preferably for free)

And also, does anyone know the name of a mange that's about this guy that owns a hotel that's completely inhabited by females. It's supposed to be a comedy.

[Gasaraki]

Kyo anime is crap, just look for the manga. Use "gotlurk.net"

As to your second question, it's probably Love Hina, though it's technically not a hotel. Still that discription is vague enough to be alot of other stuff too.

just finished fate/stay night.. good series overall, but IMO the ending was somewhat lacking

spoilers

i just think there could've been more to the scene where saber and shirou part. kinda anticlimatic. and the two fight scenes weren't that good, i thought i was watching dbz for a moment

/spoilers

now that i'm done with fsn and tsukihime, i'm gonna start on eureka 7 now..
fucking a though. two series in less than a week.

[Warpticon]

Just actually finished Haruhi #12. That was, by FAR, the best animated musicianship I have ever seen. It made me very happy. And, again, <3 Tsuruya and her laughing and excessive energy and hair that has more volume than her entire body.

Yeah I agree, the ending was lame, though I thought it was worse than just "somewhat lacking".

I HATE those "learn to live without her" ending copouts. FUCK THEM! :annoy:

[DJcream]

That latest episode of Haruhi was really badass. Not only did we get to see Haruhi jam out in a bunny suit ("God knows..." has been on repeat on my itunes for 'bout 2 hours already) but we see a side of her that we all didn't know she had...normalcy.

[Gasaraki]

Holy crap, ep 12 of Haruhi was indeed freakin sweet. Easily best episode so far, I hope the soundtrack has those 2 songs they played, that was great stuff, better than I could have expected. And yeah, the animation was INCREDIBLE. I was getting pumped just watching it :rock:

[Master Chibi]

I have the two songs she played, I'll u/l them later ;O!

[orka]

anybody else catch the razor ramon reference in haruhi? lol

[WasFemto]

oh shit:rofl:

*DLing ep.12 RIGHT FUCKING NOW*


Chapter 5 of Mad Bull 34 is the beginning of the "Curtis vs Sleepy" arc. Curtis "Black Rose" is on my list of favorite baddasses of all time. :karate:

[Master Chibi]

No, where was it Orka?

Also:

People at 2ch were saying that during the concert(especially when using close up views such as Nagato playing the guitar & Haruhi’s screams~) frame rate increases to 24fps, typical OVA frame rate(so if you slow down the clip, you can still see Nagato tapping the guitar with her fingers, instead of some blurry frames); if that’s true then KyoAni really puts a lot of thought in promoting this single.

Seems that ENOZ is actually an homage to ZONE, an actual J-rock band made of four gals with the first letter of the first name deal going on. This is also why in the anime it's four gals and not three like the manga.

Also also:

During much of the show before the concert, you can actually see ENOZ walking around looking for help in their predicament. When they meet up with Haruhui it's actually in the bg with Kyon and friends infront of the shoe lockers and all that.

Fucking Kyoto Animation man, damn.

GOD I AM SO TEMPTED to change my avatar to that shot of Haruhui looking back after they finish GOD KNOWS, but I have will power damn it!

thanks though

Hook it up here too, por favor :lovin:

I knew the Culture Festival episode would be good, but I didn't think it would be THAT good.

[Mr. Bastos]

anybody else catch the razor ramon reference in haruhi? lol

Oh and where was the Razor Ramon reference?

[DJcream]

Oh and where was the Razor Ramon reference?It was early in the episode when Kyon was still wonderin' 'round the school solo.

[Master Chibi]

An update from a blog I believe:

Sales update: The CD single of the songs from this episode is currently the #1 music CD/DVD on Amazon.co.jp. The upcoming Haruhi, Mikuru, and Yuki image albums were just put up for presale and claimed slots #11-13. The Haruhi DVD preorders have surged up the sales list and, with no regard to order, are occupying top sales slots #2, #7-12, and #19! I don't think we need to worry about season 2 happening.

[DJcream]

I seriously can't wait for an announcement for Haruhi season 2.

[Gasaraki]

If there is a season 2, hopefully it'll show more development of Haruhi being less insane all the time like in ep 12.

[Mr. Bastos]

It was early in the episode when Kyon was still wonderin' 'round the school solo.


oh are you talking about "Razor Ramon Hard Gay"? Like the guy Azrael talked about on outpostnine? I thought you meant the wrestler, lol.

[WasFemto]

I know Tempest talked about it, but how is Midori Days?

I'm still watching the auditorium scene and still loving it more each time, this is Haruhi btw, 9:55-10:03 really own me.

[Warpticon]

Midori no Hibi is the best show about a guy whose hand turns into a girl I've ever seen. Despite a really stupid premise, it's pretty amusing. As is the typical trend, the manga is better.

[Gasaraki]

yeah, Midori Days is really weird idea wise, but the story isn't too bad. It's not drawn out long either, and has an ok resolution. Pretty good stuff.

[DannyCat]

During much of the show before the concert, you can actually see ENOZ walking around looking for help in their predicament. When they meet up with Haruhui it's actually in the bg with Kyon and friends infront of the shoe lockers and all that.

Fucking Kyoto Animation man, damn.
This show is ridiculously rewatchable even just for purposes of finding all the little details they stuffed in. One I noticed just now: when Itsuki shows up at the end of the first song, explaining that he rushed over in a hurry...his costume is still dripping wet from the rain outside. Also, the single raindrop in the pool thing at 8:13, people drying themselves off as they entered the auditorium at 8:36, and the sound of raindrops hitting the roof of the building in the background, all before we see it actually raining outside.

They must have some people on payroll whose sole job it is to think out every single possible detail they could add or something, no matter how subtle.

[Gasaraki]

They already hinted that it was about to rain with the cloud cover though. I dont' think that's on the same level of detail as including Haruhi and ENOZ in the background =P

[DannyCat]

It's not. But it's added detail that wouldn't have been missed had it been absent. If Itsuki had merely shown up dressed as he was earlier, it would have been fine. But they went ahead and made his costume soaked through on the head and shoulders and added water dripping from his hair, as if he'd dashed through the downpour outside. Not as subtle as other things they've done, but enough so that one could miss it on the first viewing(s) and only notice it later.

[DannyCat]

On the other hand, speaking of details, finally noticed this sign behind Kyon and friends as they walk over it. Photoshopped it out to get a clearer look, and discovered they have the same coffee shop as the one Megane and friends set up in Urusei Yatsura 2: Beautiful Dreamer.

[tempest]

my god can't wait get the the speedgrapher set now...just damn looks very nice.

[SlaughterX]

I finished watching The Devil Lady yesterday and I was really underwhelmed. The story was pretty absurd, the fight scenes really weren't very spectacular, I think the whole low budgetness of it all killed it for me, or maybe because it just seemed to drag on for entirely too long.

I downloaded Amon Apocalyse of Devilman, and though the version I have isn't even subbed in english I peeped an ill fight scene that has me interested in seeing it all. Anyway I noticed that the guy in that OAV looks a lot like the guy at the end of The Devil Lady, and on top of that he had an A on his shirt and could turn into a Devilman so I am guessing that's Amon. :)

Also there seems to be a live action movie as well, is that worth seeing?

[Hunter D]

Nanashi has released episodes 39 and 40 of eureka 7.

Holy fuck I can't believe you caught that.

Being the absolute Urusei Yatsura whore that I am (especially with that film), my respect for Haruhui has shot through the roof now.

Wow.

@ SlaughterX:

Did you watch any of the old school Devilman? Hell, do you understand exactly what it's about?

In Devilman, Ryo and Akira finds out demons from hell are coming to Earth, so they decide that they need to stop them. How? By having Akira become a 'demon' himself. They bait out the demons from hell, and Akira gets possesed by the second most powerful demon in Hell (under Satan), Amon. Akira however, ends up being able to control the demon with him, being as pure, kind, and gentle as he is. He gains more courage and confidence from this; and from then on, they kick ass. Ryo ends up being taken control of by Satan himself, and the complications go from there.

In Devilman Lady, the entire opposite happens. The main character already has the demon within her, and her friend (who has a striking resemblance to Ryo of Devilman) aims to become a god. The main character here stays shy and lacks self confidence / courage for much of the series, crying a good bit here and there over what she's done. As for the guy in the yellow shirt with the red A on it (that shows up near the end), that's in fact an homage to Akira from the original Devilman, not Amon. It was his trademark outfit.

If you ever happen to catch Cutie Honey (the newest revision by Gainax) they threw him in there too, twice, and with Miki to boot! I'll see if I can dig them up again.

I downloaded Amon Apocalyse of Devilman, and though the version I have isn't even subbed in english I peeped an ill fight scene that has me interested in seeing it all. Anyway I noticed that the guy in that OAV looks a lot like the guy at the end of The Devil Lady, and on top of that he had an A on his shirt and could turn into a Devilman so I am guessing that's Amon. :)

Amon is the name of the demon that Akira took control over once he entered his body. In the film, everything that could go wrong with the world does, and because of it Akira loses control of Amon, and the shit hits the fan from there. Excellent film mind you, really damn good, and sets up the begining to Violence Jack I believe.

And the guy in the shirt is again, Akira, not Amon.

Also there seems to be a live action movie as well, is that worth seeing?

As an homage to the ORIGINAL series, it's plenty fun to watch and holds true to much of the original content. CG Devilman / scenes are pretty damn sweet (especially when him and Satan fight, god damn). As a stand alone film though, it's pretty lackluster, and you'd be hardpressed to really understand what the fuck is going on.

<3 <3 <3 for Devilman~

[Hunter D]

Devilman lady is a good show. It is a very deep anime.

[GreyFoxx]

"Good Witch of the West" is AWESOME shoujo stuff. Watch it people

[tempest]

Did you watch any of the old school Devilman? Hell, do you understand exactly what it's about?



Yes seeing it was the only reason why I decided to finish The Devil Lady series, but I still don't think it compares, it was just boring as hell and the fight scenes were weak.

[capconian]

watching Genshiken, officialy the best anime ever!!!!

[SlaughterX]

Heh, why do you guys have the same avatar? Anyway your name made me remember, I thought Gasaraki sucked too...

[Zor]

Yes, Genshiken is too good. I've had all of Gasaraki for a couple years now. Never could force myself to get past the 4th volume.

[Gasaraki]

Heh, why do you guys have the same avatar? Anyway your name made me remember, I thought Gasaraki sucked too...
1. Because Eureka seveN is the best anime ever.

2. Gasaraki is an awesome anime, some people just don't like it's somewhat slow pace. The story is really intresting though

[SlaughterX]

Has anyone seen The Zone of the Enders anime? Is it worth seeing?

[shinobi00]

Anyone see negima? I saw a couple episodes and it was decently funny. The harry potter kid is awesome. I've heard negima and love hina are similar, should I just watch love hina instead?

[capconian]

Anything like genshiken that anyone could tell me?

[WasFemto]

Anything like genshiken that anyone could tell me?


Otaku no Video. I liked it alot more than Genshiken. Not saying that Genshiken is bad(it's awesome) but the drama, story and characters were more loveable in this one.

Not to mention the transformation Kubo(OnV) goes through is more intense and hilarious.

[tempest]

Anyone see negima? I saw a couple episodes and it was decently funny. The harry potter kid is awesome. I've heard negima and love hina are similar, should I just watch love hina instead?

how bout neither and thank me later?

such a shame though the art box for negima is cool has hell.just the show is medicore.

same goes for zone.

reason why people place devil lady higher then devil man is the story and charcaters are more fleshed out, but that might be bcause GO nagai didn;t write the story for the show.


E7 is very good,but i wouldn't say best ever umm no.


ummm somewhat slow pace for gasrakia is kinda being nice isn't? but will say if ya can get past vol3 then your enjoy 4>8.

and when did manga pick up noein? i thought bandai had that in the bag.
peace out

[Gasaraki]

E7 is very good,but i wouldn't say best ever umm no.


ummm somewhat slow pace for gasrakia is kinda being nice isn't? but will say if ya can get past vol3 then your enjoy 4>8.

Yes, I do indeed think E7 is the best anime I've ever seen. It actually has the best development, pace, characters, story, ending, I've ever personally seen.

As for Gasaraki, no I think slow pace is perfect to describe it, it's NOT that bad.

[tempest]

bullshit the slow pace sucked in vol 1,2,3 your kidding yourself if you don't think other wise.
the story didn;t get interesting till vol4 .

[shinobi00]

Now i see why you keep the Dude as your av, Gankutsuoh is an awesome anime. Everything was great about it, animation, soundtrack(excpet the op and ed themes), characters, story, etc. This is one of the only anime I've seen were there are absolutely no annoying characters! i knew what was going to happen(saw the movie), but it still didn't take any enjoyment out of the show for me. Now i just have to read the book. All 1200 pages of it(yeah right).

The ninja comedy show 2x2 = Shinobuden is next. I don't care if it's bad, it's about my ninja bretheren.

Edit: Seriously is it bad?
