Apparently Basilisk was liscenced by Del Rey.

Go fig.

www.mangass.com.

They only have ch.1-7 from the 1st volume up right now.

[bakablitz]

speed grapher is pretty trippy so far... I also got that weird ass twlight zone type show episodes one and two up at suki. Weird as hell.

[WasFemto]

Just read the 1st chapter of Baslisk. Holy Shit! this was EXACTLY(if not pretty close) like the manga. Impressed so far that GONZO got that close.

If it keeps up like this I probably won't even read the manga.

[Stabby]

What the fuck?! New Elfen Lied OVA?!?!

[Gasaraki]

soundtracks
ah, I always see that typed as OST for "original soundtrack".
Apparently Basilisk was liscenced by Del Rey.

Go fig.
Awesome, their releases are always top-notch, even if they tend to take a while.
What the fuck?! New Elfen Lied OVA?!?!
Do you mean that 14th episode thing? Or a totally new OVA? I hope it's new cause I want more closure damnit, though I mostly know how it turns out form people telling me who read the manga.

[Stabby]

And Basalisk is sorta lame.

I want the new Naruto raw. And no Gantz until next week. And yeah, that 14th episode thing.

[WasFemto]

Just watched the 1st episode of Speed Grapher. Pretty cool. The photogapher has to be one of the dumbest fucks ever tho'. Man, so far so good, as GONZO releases go :tup:


Gonna watch ep.2 of Aim for the Top! 2 then hit the hay.

[WasFemto]

Well it seems like I;m fucked for the Beck manga since the link Gasaraki gave me some weird as page with listings and another one I found took down the torrents. TP aquired it and I beleive the first vol. comes out the same month the last volume of GTO comes out, so it's all good I guess.

DLing eps.1-26 of the anime tho'.

AIM for the Top! 2 is pretty kick ass. It's just goes all out on everyhting. Fight scenes, fan service and everything else. Good shit. :tup:


EDIT: *looks at torrent* COOL! it's going to take me between 18 to 23 days to have Beck dled :xeye:

[WasFemto]

Well got all of the Beck anime birned on discs and just finished watching the first 4 episodes. I'm really digging this. Ryuusuke talks like he has down syndrome but it's still all good. I can't wait for the manga to be released but in the mean time I'm digging this shit. F-bombs akimbo and "I Was Made To Hit In America!!!"

[ReggieHadoken]

InuYasha has gone to the crapper with all these sucky filler eps. The worst offender was then one with that giant rat illusion. Everything about it was suckola. Now I don't mind filler but it has to be GOOD filler. Example of good filler: DBZ ep where Goku & Piccolo take Driver's Ed. Example of bad filler: DBZ Garlic Jr. Saga. They better get this series back on track and quick.

Well I bought Love Hina 12-14. I have the all of the manga now. I'm so happy. Keitaro has the patience of a saint to put up with Naru's indeciveness. He tells her he loves her and she can never tell him she loves him back when it is painfully obvious that she does. Not to mention Naru's short fuse temper. Any other dude would have said "Screw it" and leave.

[DeafNYCPlayer72]

I watched Mew Mew Power. It was good. I thought that it was not editing often except names. I found few unedited Tokyo Mew Mew episodes. I downloaded and began to watch it. I was surprising that Mew Mew Power removed few scenes of Japanese episodes. Ichigo (Zoey) has tattoo (American version removed), and then transformation scene...

Never mind... =P

Well... I keep watched Mew Mew Power until it will finish. I got only unedited Tokyo Mew Mew 1-3.

Ah My Goddess TV looks so better!!! I will get DVD. Anime Works confirms that it will release Ah My Goddess TV to America. I think that it may release next year because Ah My Goddess TV DVD is not arriving yet. It is currently airing in Japan (up to 15 episodes of 26 episodes).

[Civic Si]

Finally got around to watching Love Hina. On ep 10. I am not impressed. yet ANOTHER anime about a guy failing the entrance exams to get into to Tokyo U, while falling in love with a girl. Then, of course, she has to fall for him, but tries to not let him know, yet they both get the feeling they like one another. It's been done quite a fucking bit, I'd say.

And HOW MANY TIMES can someone end up in "compromising situations" in one episode? I mean, where the guy fall on the girl, and they end up in that "about to kiss/fuck" position. It happens entirely too much here.

Last stereotypical thing of this sort of anime, it gets frustrating when the guy can NEVER seem to get his feelings out, or the girl tries to stuff hers.

Very stereotypical entrance exam prep school maybe she loves me maybe she loves me not kinda anime. I will finish it, but it's kinda hard to. Normally I can watch a whole series, like *SNAP*, but this tries me.

now unto something interesting news seems that Speedgrapher.com, Trinityblood.tv, and Basilisk.tv d are owned by Funimation
now this mean anything although last year s7. and i believe gsg domain names were owned by funa,and fuan licensed them so looks like they might have it, oh they also have beck domain name too. peace

The manga is WAY more bearable.

The OAV isn't bad either.

I still don't know why you guys aren't watching/reading School Rumble.

Yeah, the show is real repetitive. There's not too much left there either if you're already half way through.. I don't recommend that you finish it. Frankly it's just an average show. My problem is that besides shinobu and keitaro the characters have no real back bones of their stories. but it was pretty fun to watch a few years ago. The comic is OK at best too. But yeah comic is a little better.

I felt that same way the first time I saw it, but I dunno... the series and the characters kind of grow on you after a while. I'd keep watching it if I were you because I hated it at first for the same reasons you listed, but when I saw the Christmas special and the last OVAs (which end the series), I really really enjoyed the series.

- Trailer for the NEW Elfen Lied OVA

And I second School Rumble heartily.

[Gasaraki]

To anyone, watch Eureka Seven. It seems like it might end up being intresting. It's a BONES project btw.
Well it seems like I;m fucked for the Beck manga since the link Gasaraki gave me some weird as page with listings and another one I found took down the torrents. TP aquired it and I beleive the first vol. comes out the same month the last volume of GTO comes out, so it's all good I guess.

Catch me on AIM. I have all the manga released so far. I just hope I can find that groups page again so I can get more of their releases, if they continue anyway =/

DLing eps.1-26 of the anime tho'.

AIM for the Top! 2 is pretty kick ass. It's just goes all out on everyhting. Fight scenes, fan service and everything else. Good shit. :tup:


EDIT: *looks at torrent* COOL! it's going to take me between 18 to 23 days to have Beck dled :xeye:

Beck anime was really good. I downloaded the huge 1-26 pack in one night. I'm not sure why it would take you so long. I spent most of the weekend watching it. :tup:

[Gasaraki]

Oh yeah, a note for Beck and the pillows fans, episode 26 has the songs "Advice", "Blues Drive Monster", and I think "Hybrid Rainbow" played by one of the bands. At least I think it was those tracks, it's been a while since I watched 26. Either way, the pillows rock.

[Stabby]

Goddamn Eremental Gerad sucks.

[tempest]

only shows i'm picking up this week.

MADLAX i heard mix reviews, at first i wasn't going get ,but has me half interested from hearing about it.
scrapped princess need new fantasy type anime since 12 kingdoms is over.
and going hunt down hippo vol 5 i want see Miyata boxes with Mashiba .
and i'm going catch up with getbackers and finish off iukk toushin(only reason is so i can get all the penical borads thats the only saving grace for this show. peace

[Stabby]

Scrapped Princess isn't a good series for pure fantasy.

How about Mar? Made by the guy that did flame of recca, and it is way better than his first work.

Glad to see other ppl like this anime other than me :P

I've been reading the manga forever..it'd be pretty cool to see the tv series eventually catch up to the manga.

Ichigo 100% manga is so much better than the tv series....well, that's usually true for any manga/anime comparison. But i really didn't like the changes they made in the TV series...

[WasFemto]

[ReggieHadoken]

I saw the first InuYasha movie, Affections Touching Across Time. I was a bit disappointed with it but it was still OK. I liked the plot and the slighty different style of animation was cool. It made up for all those crappy filler eps I saw on Inu on [as].

Reading Love Hina vol. 12 now. I really love the manga but I think I won't like the anime as much. Nevertheless, it will still be nice to see the Hinata crew in anime form.

Astro Boy continues to rock. This is old-school stle anime redone right, folks. GET IT. NOW!!!

I bought a used anime flick called Sukeban Deka. It was only $10 and the story and characters intirgued me. Plus it was the only one left at my fye so I didn't wanna not buy it and regret it later. Haven't watched it yet. After work tonight I will, though.

[dialupsucky]

anyone know where i can dl some kimi ga nozomu eien hentai!? Specificly when akane is still in middle school cuz I little girls! :sad: :blush:

[Crusader]

Glad to see other ppl like this anime other than me :PNo, You're not alone. I'm loving the A!MG TV series. It's way better than the OVA.

[js2756]

No, You're not alone. I'm loving the A!MG TV series. It's way better than the OVA.

A!MG TV will only be better than the OVA if they introduce Peorth. Otherwise, OVA is still better. Then again, I'm probably in the minority here, since I think that the movie was the worst of the 3 (so far).

dialupsucky: You might want to try and find the Kimi Ga Nozomu Eien game. It was a hentai game that the series was actually based on.

Didn't like Love Hina manga, the anime sucked way worse though.

I liked the movie! good animation, and decent storyline. That little bike thing was cool.

Yea, i'm hoping the TV series will catch up to the manga (though i doubt it), but at least get some of the new characters in....

[DeafNYCPlayer72]

Thanks, Tempest. I thought that Japanese AMG TV series DVD vol. 1 is not releasing yet. Oh... fansub group might not do with AMG TV series DVD because it is licensed. I really like Speed Grapher anime preview because great artwork. I do not check Speed Grapher episodes yet. I hope that Funimation will have great work.

I read forum about Ah My Goddess manga will end at volume 31. Is it true? I will check it and buy it at Japanese Bookstore in New York City. ^.^

i just want sombody license monster, and Kimi Ga Nozomu i hope be geneon gets both i thought geneon would got kimi before koikaze but oh well.

He really wants to end the manga soon, seeing as there was a large break between his manga releases over the past 3 years(he only got 5 volumes out in the past 4 years, and 3 of them were released in the past 16 months), and the fact that it's been 15 fucking years since he started it. It may or may not end on 31, but it will be finished soon.

AMG TV is really shaping up, I don't doubt that Peorth will show up soon after Skuld.

[WasFemto]

Astro Boy continues to rock. This is old-school stle anime redone right, folks. GET IT. NOW!!!



I was reading at AnimeSuki that even the dvd version was censored and edited. So I'm weary about purchasing it, since I don't like edits and censors.

I got Speed Grapher ep.2 dled, just need to watch it and then dl ep.3.

I'm on ep.6 of Beck.

waiting for the second episode of Basilisk :rock:

ep.3 of Aim for the Top! Die Buster!

Gonna buy the Lupin movies from Funi after this semester is over( 2 1/2 more weeks).

Once this semster is over I'm gonna jump into a bunch of old school and hopefully get a dvd burner for my pc and start burning eps. of Ashita no Joe, Galaxy Express 999, Space Captain Harlock TV and more old-school joints on DVD.

[ReggieHadoken]

Astro Boy edited and censored? As far as I know, the series was never overly violent. It's robots duking it out not humans. Weird.

[WasFemto]

I'm thinkin more content wise. I'll go ask.

Gonna watch ep.2 of Basilisk :nunchuck: :rock:

[ReggieHadoken]

Ohhh I see. Well if it was edited, that sucks.

What is this Basilisk? I've heard it mentioned before. So much anime out there that I've left unexplored.

Anyone know of anymore good short series I can check out? They can be original series or manga turned anime, I don't care. I'm just looking to beef up my collection.

[Stabby]

Elfen Lied, Genshiken, and nothing else at all comes to mind. Just check out boxtorrents for series.

And Basilisk is basically Ninja Scroll if it were a series.

[Serapis XLE]

Ninja Scroll did have a series I thought. But, I suppose it is similar seeing how characters come out of nowhere. I didn't like how they went back in time however, I wanted it to continue from episode 1.

[tempest]

can't remember reggie,have you seen hellsing? its pretty good series, till you get to the last couple eps, that just trash the whole show, so might want pick up the manga and wait for the hellsing which says follow the manga.
i would wait for Elfen Lied dvd release the animation on the dvd is unreal.

yes they made ninja scroll tv and it sucked monster of week kinda series,just trash no worth watching.

[js2756]

I liked the movie! good animation, and decent storyline. That little bike thing was cool.

Yea, i'm hoping the TV series will catch up to the manga (though i doubt it), but at least get some of the new characters in....

It's not that I didn't like the movie, it was pretty good, but I didn't like it as much as either the TV series or the OVAs. I also found that Celestin was acting a bit like a pedophile in the movie and it kinda creeped me out.

Reggie: It's not exactly short, but Fullmetal Alchemist is definitely one you should pick up. A few good 26 episode series are Chrno Crusade and Rahxephon. I also second Stabby's recommendation of Elfen Lied.

[noodleman]

Fullmetal Alchemist is a wicked series, everyone who watches anime should watch that series.

Raxephon was so so...abit too abstract for me i suppose.

Macross Zero is a definite must if you want a short mecha/action ova.

js2756: hahaha on the pedo thing...i didn't even think about that...and now that you brought it up, it can be viewed as bordering pedos :P

[WasFemto]

Reggie you gotta see Basilisk. Probably the best new anime that's out right now. The first episode owns so hard. The second episode is more character introductions, but like I said in a few other forums, it's most likely the calm before the strom. It gets compared to NS alot already, but that's because the art and animation are top notch. The source material for Basilisk came out long before Ninja Scroll did. Story wise I'm not seeing it. NS draws waaaaaaaaaay more parlells(sp? fuck this word) to Kawajiri's other film Wicked City(also based off a novel). Ninja Scroll, while kickass and one of my favorite movies, is basically Wicked City but with Ninja's.

[ReggieHadoken]

Hmmm. Well this Basilik sounds interesting. Is it out on DVD?

As for Ninja Scroll, I've only heard of it. I haven't seen it.

I love Full Metal Alchemist. I watch it all the time on [as]. Yeah, I'm sure some of it is edited but this series still owns.

About Astroy Boy being edited content wise--well there really isn't much in the way of extra content at all. The only bonus on the whole DVD set is the remaking of Astro Boy.

basilik is not licensed so its not out on dvd yet ,but may change by end of this weekned or con season.

has far has i know fma is uncut on AS
i wouldn't go has far has say that Basilisk is best new show there series out there thats pretty good.. and gonzo Trinity Blood first ep aired and its freaking nice, i just hope gonzo wont start filler eps and try follow manga more. peace

[WasFemto]

I NEED BASILISK OSTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!


and yes this is the best new series out there.


Just about everything so far kicks ass(some of the character designs are a little...hmmm.....dude with mad nostril hair......regardless this shit owns.

[dialupsucky]

not sure if anyone is really into it but me and henry lol but heres a tsukasa from ichigo fan site thats kinda cute...

[shiniduo]

Gundam series that I've been watching as of late I definitely would say that it's a very welcome to the series..but I hope they do improve on the mobile suits can you imagine calling the new Freedom Gundam which is just like the old freedom with new parts wtf.... :wow:

[Serapis XLE]

Shiniduo - If you meant you need episodes, I got em all cept for the first one (bastard corrupted).

What did come out for the next season of animated shows anyhow, so far all I have found new was basilisk anything else noteworthy this season?

Trinity Blood seems be really good i just hope gonzo follow the manga .speaking of which seems be SP Trinity Blood and basilisk have been licensed or one of the 3. this just in amg tv first dvd be out 2d half of the year.

[ADarkSilhouette]

Is monster good? I was watching when it first started but I stopped around the episode where the brother shows up to pick up his sister cuz it was her 18th birthday or something...Anyway I just want to know if I should pick it back up.

I also just checked dattebayos torrent page and it shows that there is a torrent for a naruto movie. It wouldnt by any chance be the one that came out in theaters now would it?

yespick up monster. this show needs be picked up really bad by anime company.

[Stabby]

Yes, that is the Naruto movie. Monster is good, but you have to get accustomed to the suspense genre. I suggest you don't read the manga, so that you actually won't know when the anime will end.

[ReggieHadoken]

Well I just finished reading Love Hina vol. 14, the final book of the manga. I reall, really enjoyed this series and it is one of my all-time favorite mangas. It may not have been anything original but what it did, it did very well. I like how the story spanned 3 years and then showed how things were 4 years later. Keitaro and Naru got married, Shinobu & Motoko were still gunning for Keitaro's affections, Kitsune was/is still a slacker, Su was still pyscho, etc. I enjoy action manga as much as the next guy but it was really nice to read something where the characters led normal lives. I'm a little sad that I'm finisihed with it but now I can finally get on with reading my other mangas.

[js2756]

If you want a manga that shows a more realistic point of view of people growing up, get Maison Ikkoku.

I still stand by my opinion that Love Hina sucks.

[WasFemto]

I wanna get the MI manga. I have the first two boxsets on DVD. They are cool and all but seeing as how the mangas (in general) take the story farther I wanna get this.

[WasFemto]

My DVDs just came in, last night actaully, from the ADV sale.

[Holy Knight]

Mine came a couple of days ago. Did they do anything on your dvd covers? Since mine had barcodes, those fuckers used a punch hole tool rip holes in them. They must have been lazy because they ripped right through the clear plastic area to get to them. I'm pretty pissed about that.

Now that you mention it, yeah. I just thought it was on the MegaZone 23 vol.2 but it was on 3 and Kino's Journey vol.4. It's also on the box of the MegaZone23(got vol.1 + box). Weird. Guess they had to mark the sale items or something.


I should've picked up Plastic Little as well.

[shiniduo]

Shiniduo - If you meant you need episodes, I got em all cept for the first one (bastard corrupted).



Thanks dude but I've seen all the episodes so far Im currently waiting for episode 28 ^_^

So far I like how this series progresses IMO this is one of the better AC (Alternate Century) Gundam series

[js2756]

Actually, the anime covers the entire scope of the manga. Obviously, there are some omissions as well as a few filler episodes, but the MI anime for the most part, remains very true to the manga. It still isn't as "full" as the manga however, and if you read the entire manga and watch the entire anime, you can easily identify certain parts that are very different.

[SA.M]

Anyone know a good Captain Tsubasa site? I need info and/or manga downloads.

Thanx man, that's cool to know. I do enjoy the anime (espicially the music) so maybe I'l just go with the manga and the anime. It adds some diversity within my collection of DVD anime so I'll continue.


Watched some Mega Zone 23 so far. When the meat of the story picked up I had to get ready for work BUT I was digging it and the video quality is OMFG awesome. ADV di a nice job eith this. I can't wait to see more.

[Serapis XLE]

Yo, anyone else watching Gundam Seed Destiny? If so thought and comments welcome, this show might make me go back and watch some of the other gundam series.

[Hunter D]

Destiny is better than Seed so far but is barely above average when compared to other gundam shows IMO.

[OmNiExiZt]

I just got done watching 24ep. of Grappler Baki. Please tell me that there are more than that out there? Pleast tell me that you've heard rumors of the anime being completed? Please tell me where I can find more!!! I'd hate for this to end with me not knowing or ever going to be able to find out if he'll ever beat his father. Could you imagine if Naruto just stopped right now? That would be terrible. I think that this series is/had turned out pretty good.

*ONEZ*

[Stabby]

Well, Grappler continues on in the manga, I think.

And anyone that wants the new elfen lied episode can get it HERE (http://www.point-blank.cc:7001/torrents/%5BAnY%5D_Elfen_Lied_-_Extra_%5BB10E27A5%5D.torrent?info_hash=d95f89e353 e23b2f647ed4655b569a139f6461bb). Supposed to take place in between episodes 9 and 10 or 10 and 11 or something.

[WasFemto]

Isn't there a Grappler Baki 2? The Hawks are supposed to be subbing it soon.

[WasFemto]

EPISODE 3 OF BASILISK IS OUT, BITCHES!!!

dling right now....

[WasFemto]

Just got done watching the 2nd part of Mega Zone 23. Holy shit did the Matrix bite of this series (of what I've seen so far). This some good shit. The style totally changed in the 2nd part of the story (which is a continuation of the 1st part). It's less "anime" more "realistic". I liked the style.

Lonely Sunset > me.

anyone know where i could dl vol18 of 20th century boys?
cant fidn it anywhere =/

[ReggieHadoken]

Looks like you guys were right about the last few eps of Hellsing. The last four were just a downer for me. They jus didn't have the flare and and momentum of all the others before it. What a letdown.

Well I saw Sukeban Deka with a buddy. The animation was from 1991, but this was still an anyoable 90-100 minute anime. Saki has to go undercover into a highschool to get to the bottom of a crime orginazation which involves 3 very loaded sisters. Saki uses only a yo-yo that has wire that cannot be cut or burned. And she's awesome with tha yo-yo. :wow: One of her teamates took out a dude in a chopper that was shooting a gattling gun at him. 1 shot to the head. Chopper loses control and explodes in the woods. :wow:

I also started watching Record of the Loodus War. It started out a bit dull but now I want to see the last 6 eps. I like how everyone is divided into classes (Nights, theifs, mages, etc.)

I'm reading One Piece vol. 6 now. Don Krieg started a mess at a resurant at sea and now things are about to get ugly.

[Stabby]

Poptard, the group that was doing it dropped it because it got liscenced. Volume 18 is untranslated, and will stay that way unless someone else picks it up.

Actually....

#manga-heaven@irchighway

apparently they picked it up instead. If you don't like IRC, I'll probably manage to do it.

More actually...

Since this hasn't been posted here. I picked this bit of info on the Hawks forums regarding Hokuto no Ken


If there are people interested in Hokuto No Ken (Fist of the Northstar), then know that there are no less than 3 MOVIES and 2 OVAs which will come between 2006 and 2008, from japanese prod. NorthStar Pictures.
This is the greatest news about HNK for the last 20 years, the project is called Hokuto no Ken: Shin Kyuseishu Densetsu

Hojo Tsukasa, creator of City Hunter (aka Nicky Larson), will handle the character design. The films and OVAs will be distributed by Toho Co. Ltd.


Here the schedule:

- Spring 2006: Movie 90'
HOKUTO NO KEN RAOH GAIDEN JUNAI-HEN
(Fist of the Northstar: Raoh Side-Story - Arc Junai)

- Autumn 2006: OVA 30'
HOKUTO NO KEN RAOH GAIDEN GEKITÔ-HEN
(Fist of the Northstar: Raoh Side-Story - Arc Gekitou)

- Spring 2007: Movie 90'
HOKUTO NO KEN UREA DENSETSU
(Fist of the Northstar: The Legend of Urea)

- Autumn 2007 : OVA 30'

(Fist of the Northstar: The Legend of Toki)

- Autumn 2008: Final movie 90'
HOKUTO NO KEN KENSHIRO DENSETSU
(Fist of the Northstar: The Legend of Kenshiro)

[WasFemto]

was the Fist of the North Star manga fully translated with all the volumes out?

well at least geneon going make hellsing ova which will follow the manga now only question is how far it will follow the manga, and how many eps it be, i'll be happy if The Millennium story arc is animated fully . peace

[ALawnGnome]

Currently watching-
1) Naruto (it'll never end)
2) Bleach (same as above)
3) Tsubasa Chronicle
4) BECK
5) Samurai Champloo
6) X/tv

I finished FMA but I'm buying the vol. that go with my shiny black tin :D
Oooo and I also want to watch Azumanga Daioh and countless other stuff. Ok, i'll stop rambling :-D

[Stabby]

According to Kishimoto, Naruto is about half-over, manga-wise.

But Bleach will go on forever, just because that guy can't tell a story.


If you like Azumanga, you should also watch School Rumble.

[Crusader]

But Bleach will go on forever, just because that guy can't tell a story. Bwahaha, random Bleach hate... I love it. (I'm not exactly a fan of Bleach for those who don't know me too well)

[Stabby]

Random? The series is dull. He can write characters well, and abilities, and he draws well, but he can't tell a good story. The entire thing is just Ichigo powering up-- 170 chapters, and there hasn't been a single opponent he's faced so far that he couldn't just beat with raw power.

I mean, the guy has so much power that while he was suppressing his powers enough power leaked out to give his friends powers. Just think about that for a second.

And it is the most predictable series I've ever seen. I've called every plot "twist" up until where I stopped.

Give me Gantz (http://voiea.net/manga/Gantz%20v01c001.rar) over that, anyday.

[Crusader]

Oh no, don't get me wrong... I wasn't flaming you, I was *agreeing* with you. I can't for the world of me understand how Bleach became so popular. I agree with everything you just wrote. I don't even know why I bother to keep up with the series anymore... it's probably because all of my friends love it and that way I can follow their conversations, but otherwise I probably would have stopped keeping up with it a *long* time ago. Bleach.... :tdown:

[tempest]

how good is Tsubasa ? and since i'm asking this question how good is Starship Operators ? peace

[Stabby]

Y'all should check out D-Gray man. Scanlated by Timcampi (http://timcanpi.net/), series runs in shonen jump along with all the other more famous series. You can get all the releases for it here (http://voiea.net/manga/D-Gray%20Man.rar), or just go to the first website and download a few chapters to see if you like it.

It reminds me of Hellsing, but less dark, and with an art-style more like FMA. I'd rate the series about a B so far.

[WasFemto]

Posted this in the Anime suggentions thread Nastradamus started and I'll post it here. It's the torrent for GunBuster. Unless you happen to be lucky(like me) and live in a state that still has the U.S. Renditions version on VHS you might want to check this out. It's a classic Gainax show that everyone should see. Peep DieBuster as well.

Bought a ton of anime in Suncoast on Friday. They had 7 DVDs on sale for $7.99 each so I picked up 6 of the 7. I got the following:

Tokyo Babylon
Cyber City The Final Collection
Voltage Fighter Gowcaizer
Big Wars
Garzey's Wing
RG Veda

And since I had a $15 gift certificate, it all came to a total of $35.41 :clap:

I also picked up Gun Smith Cats: Bulletproof for $12.99 and Yu Yu Hakusho the Movie/Ninku The Movie in a one case package deal for $6.99 at Best Buy. And finally, I got the starter box set of DBZ Vegeta Saga for $26.99. The Saiyan (now Vegeta) Saga uncut at last!!!
:tup:

Manga-wise I picked up Dr. Slump vol. 1 and Kenshin 14. Man, did saito mess up Usui something fierce!! :wow:

[WasFemto]

Just got done with ep.3. Man this shit is sweet and Ogen's clan is fucking beasting like a mother fuck. I know I'm not the only one watching this. This shit is getting it's own thread next week after finals.

So what's up with that sale Reggie?

[ReggieHadoken]

So what's up with that sale Reggie?

Beats me. I have no clue. I just went in there looking to get vol. 2 of Fighting Spirit (Hajime No Ippo) on DVD but it was gone. So I looked to my right and there was a set of anime on sale. It was only selected DVDs but I was still very surprised. I've never seen any of the animes I listed on sale for $7.99 but since they were dirt cheap, and I wanted to expand my anime collection, I figure "What the heck? Why not?" Tokyo Babalyon is supposed to be the prequel to the X Movie, something I've wanted to check out ever since I saw my first X AMV. I figured that'd be the next best thing.

[Duel=Master]

Here everyone check this out

Sousei no Aquarion

And i found this site

be ready shop for ippo online , your be lucky if you see new vol ippo on retail self you may see maybe one and thats it , reason being has much has i love geneon they charge retail chain like 4 dollars more then show from different company that charges less reason you see like more then on dvd say hmm eva or something, and some retailers wont order more of same vol if they don't feel its going make sales. by the way suncost sucks so stay way from them lik they have aids or something.
watch xtv k very good, and it follows the manga pretty close and music just rocks on it.

Sousei no Aquarion i'm sure were see this show out in the states next year,but i heard first couple eps are so/so although they did say the same for fafner and that show is very good .
well comming out this week is apple seed the movie.. and i'm sure bb release Elfen Lied since adv show, and they release there shows like weeks before d- date. happy hunting =)

Tokyo Babylon is good stuff. I need to pick that up.


Reggie pick up X tv. I thought the ending was going to suck, hearing the ending copped out, but I don't think it did. I liked the movie ending more myslef but the tv ending wasn't bad at all. You should be able to get it cheaps since it's in those two specialty packs. It just won't look as good as the box set with the vinyl slipcovers for the dvd :wink:

Way too average shounen adventure I thought, and this is coming from a Naruto fan. I admit the art is awesome both in the manga and the anime, it's just not very intresting.

[tempest]

couple interesting things. for one
gunbuster both ova and 2d one is licnesed by somebody and good part its not manga :tup: .

2d i'm picking up s7 sory stabby the extras own are worth it and covers are freaking sweet funa has turned it around and if it is true that funa has beck.. which looks like they do dear god they are up there with geneon.

Samurai 7? Well, your choice. But that series has an episode with the worst art that I've ever seen for an animated show.

[tempest]

Samurai 7? Well, your choice. But that series has an episode with the worst art that I've ever seen for an animated show.
any show has ep with bad animation look at berserk and trigun, but look at overall of the show, and s7 is gonzo show which there shows have been hit or miss, but with the huge freaking extras, i can take gamble.
its like this.. if i can watch black jack ovas where cpm doesn;t believe in remastering, i can watch anything.
and i go by story then animation i'm not nit pickie like most people unless its viz or manga show.

[Stabby]

No, no, seriously. They tried a different artstyle for episode 7 or 8, and it looks absolutely horrible, but I guess they get props for trying something new. Anyway, I hope you enjoy it.

I actually have never seen the Berserk anime. I just jumped straight to the manga.

This has been known for awhile which pissed me off but it makes sense that when AftT 2 is done they will release both together. I hope it's Geneon. Synch-Point did a good job with the dvds but took for fucking ever to release this whole series.

[ReggieHadoken]

If anyone wants to see Metropolis, [adult swim] is gonna air it May 14th at Midnight (Saturday). I've been wanting to check it out for a while now and I'm finally getting my chance.

no no see everybody though manga still had gunbuster 1 which they said they did last year and look for be out this year... but one of the top guys at media blaster said no somebody has both first ova , and new one and its not manga or mb me i think its either bandai or geneon.... synch point can't stay with there own release dates yes they do awesome job with shows,but there so small its hard for them get good license.
xtv is 8 dvds well worth it.

[Crusader]

I am also looking forward to Metropolis. I've never seen it before but it looks like the kind of thing I enjoy.

[Gasaraki]

I didn't like metropolis that much. It was pretty to watch with some stunning animation but it was kinda a disappointing story.

[dialupsucky]

anyone seen the new Raimuiro Senkitan show? Sorry if its been talked about maybe I missed it shrug... But anyway is it any good? the first one was well umm... retarded, but anyway is this second one any good?

[ReggieHadoken]

Well i finished Record of the Lodoss War at my friend's place. Wasn't the greatest anime but I enjoyed it. Parned turned out to be a pretty sweet knight. Deedlit was so crushing on him and she was pretty aggressive about it. The anime world AND the real world needs more chicks like her.
:tup:

I also watched Gunsmith Cats at my buddie's place. The first ep started out a bit slow but mid-way and in the end of the first ep, things really picked up. Minnie May was just so cute and grenade-happy. The chick never carried a gun. It was all about things that go BOOM!! After seeing that girl, I think I'd rather deal with a gun funatic any day of the year. Girl woould be a nightmare in a Bomberman game.
:wow:

I know DBZ is never really discussed in this thread but the uncut ultimate addition of the the Vegeta Saga is TIGHT!! I can't believe how much stuff was edited out when Pioneer first released the DVDs. They practically omitted full episodes. Many non-violent scenes with Gohan were in this version and Raditz just seems so much more pimped. The sucky part is that the last ep on the DVD ended just as the fight with Goku & Piccolo vs. Raditz just started. BOOOOOOOO!!!

[tempest]

yea thats was whole sublicense mess with toei/ Pioneer/ and funa which only thing funa did was just release dvd they could do nothing more ubtil that contract expired. now funa is freaking monster licnese shows and bring them out like R2 counter parts, like i said if its true funa has beck oh..dear god.
hmm shows that come out this week this be what i'm getting
inital D vol 11
try hunt down getbackers vol5

getbackers
oh and elfn lied..
saldy no gunslinger girl was in sight :sad:

[Hunter D]

Tempest is right, SDK manga is leagues better than the crappy anime.

I purchased Samurai Champoo vol 1. Sensory overload ppl. :wow: The animation, voice acting, and music are top notch.Only airmaster has better animated fight scenes. The plot for each episode have a nice natural flow to them. Collect this show now because I have a feeling this will end up being one of those $300 boxsets. :tup:

Edit:Femto do you see the prices for the Trigun and Cowboy Bebop boxes. Collector item is what I mean when I say that.

[WasFemto]

I still need to pick up the Lupin movies from Funi. and vol.2 of SC (Fat Fuu is the cuteness).

HunterD: What do you mean $300 boxset?

[tempest]

the price for the bebop drop now since bandai is bring out remaster disk,and i'm sure there addemplty box for the last vol like what there doing with ghost in the shell tv, and scrapped princess.

Trinity Blood

One of the characters knows "Gunkata"

it's about vampires. Pretty decent.

I bought the second volume Sunday. I was extremely disappointed by it. It was all random and didn't really tie into the quest for the sunflower samurai (except one ep).

I picked up Appleseed (regular edition) and Ninja Scroll the Series collection on Wednesday. Walmart has some really cheap prices for Anime ($35 for Ninja Scroll). I also saw Gantz for $11.

Would anyone on this thread recommend Full Metal Panic? They just released the collection, and it's pretty affordable and enticing at the price ($50 retail).

dude samurai champloo is just like cowboy bebop..in its a bunch of seemingly unconnected episdoes. Every episdoes is a one shot..but eventually everythign ties nicley up in the end..just like cowboy. their both random series but are nice and come together when u need it most.

I still think there is more of a story element to SC compared to Bebop. In Bebop they just happen to run into Vicious and what not. While this happend with Mugen, Fuu, and Jin it wasn't nowhere near as random. They are always in search of the Sunflower Samurai it's just they come across certain people (understandable since they are on foot). The only real random episodes imo, are the shitty Zombie episode and the too-dope as fuck Samurai Baseball epidode.

[ReggieHadoken]

Well [as] started airing Samurai Champloo. I wasn't really into it at first but after a few minutes, it really sucked me in. Being the first ep, I really have no clue what is going on but the animation style is very nice and the music is excellent, as are the voice actors. This is an excellent blend of action and comedy. Can't wait to see next week's ep.

[as] is also showing Metropolis as I write this. This has Osamu Tezuka's various characters all over the place. Only an hour in and I've already seen Rock, Duke Red, Skunk, Drake, Boon, and Atlas. I love how Tezuka-San created a star system with his manga/anime. This way he didn't have to think up new characters every time he started a new series. The man was a genius. Metropolis is like a darker version of Astro Boy. The whole conflict between humans & robots is alive and well. I haven't even seen all of it and I'm loving it. I'll def pick this up on DVD someday.

[Stabby]

I love the series because it is so cliched. But it took so many of them that it made something really original.

Best harem anime of all time.

Who the hell is Yuka? Is that the bitchy cousin?

Beck, can someone give me more information about this wonderful series?

I started watching the anime, and learned that there are 26 episodes I think. And ofcourse the manga is longer as usual.

Do you know where I can get the manga from, how many chapters there are, where it left off from?

Also, are they doing a season two?

Thanks!

yea that be her the annoying one, and are we talking about same show here.. ??? now i'm confused here....????

[dialupsucky]

blah....

I started(unfortantly)to watch the ichigo 100% series.. man its gawd aful. They changed quite a bit, and well it doesnt help that the series just looks UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGLY as fuck. Im not even sure what the point of having a opening for it, as well.. The opening looks nothing like it does when its the acctual show. Yea anyway it sucks.....

I got the saikano game, I read somewhere that the game has like 80 endings or something??? But from the bit ive played it looks like there is only 22, unless there are some hidden ones and stuff... Anyway not much to say about the game other then it sllllllllllllow. Plus of course I automaticly kinda hate it cuz there is some time answered questions.. sigh dont they know people need more then 10 seconds to read through 5 options... sigh ._. plus doesnt help that they make it all dramatic with heart beating noises and the screen getting all wiggly.. oh well guess it just sucks if you arent omega japanese master shrug.... Oh and the option music is awsome.

[Stabby]

Yeah we are. I just never knew her name, I always called her bitchy cousin.

I keep seeing sweet X AMVs. I saw this awesome one that used Switchfoot's "This Is Your Life" as the song in an AMV to Tokyo Babylon. I haven't even watched my copy of TB yet but after seeing that vid, I'm dying to see it now. I may even start buying X manga. This series looks soooooooooo good.

Just finished Kenshin manga books 13-14. Sano's fight with Anji was tight!! Def his best fight yet and it was awesome to see him get his due time in the spotlight. And Kenshin>Aoishi.

Is there anything mentioned in this thread about where to find Rurouni Kenshin manga to download?

Anyone know where I can download it?

[Gasaraki]

i meant kouta and yuka has cliched. not lucy like i said she cold hearted bitch. don't pop a vain ok..
No one's popping a vien, I just asked a question.

[tempest]

Yeah we are. I just never knew her name, I always called her bitchy cousin.
k i just wanted make sure, and yea she annoying has heck,butoverall i enjoy this series with visuals, music, and the story .
reggie wait till you seee seta and kenshin battle..and i can't wait till you hit revenge arc in the manga

[WasFemto]

Just saw Steamboy last night at the theaters. HOLY SHIT!!!!! This movie was AMAZING! None of you should sleep on this, it should be out on DVD pretty soon, but makesure you peep it on HUGE tv. This movie made me feel like a kid again. It's just sooooooooo fucking imaginitive.

[ReggieHadoken]

I take it the Revenge story arc is the final chapter for the Kenshin manga? I read that that books end in volume 28 and the anime of season 3 was completely original eps. Kinda of a bummer.

I didn't finish watching all of Metropolis when it aired on [as] Saturday night but what I saw was enough to make me pick up the 2 disc DVD edition today. Man, I can't wait to watch this.

I saw Tokyo Babylon last night. Interesting short series. I didn't know Subaru had powers. And that one dude with the glasses was tight!!

I picked up Hunter X Hunter vol. 2 and Case Closed vol. 5. Speaking of Case Closed, how did such a great show get placed in a sucky time slot of 5:30 AM? I like InuYasha but not enough to watch those crappy filler eps that [as] is curently running. At least FMA is on weekdays but they are repeats.

While i was in the store buying CC5 and HH2, I was flipping through Video Girl Ai manga. This looks like something I'd really enjoy. I don't know how many books it is total but I think I'll buy the first two books when I get paid this week.

[DeafNYCPlayer72]

"He is My Master" TV series is great!!! It makes me laugh. I still wonder if American company may edit it. =/

Ask Cartoon Network!!! I wanna see Case Closed episodes 50+!!! ;_;

guy in the glasses i TB be seishiro he turns againest subra and makes his life hell..just watch xtv or read the manga of x.

[Stabby]

Wait, wait, wait-- Hunter x Hunter is liscenced?!

[ReggieHadoken]

Wait, wait, wait-- Hunter x Hunter is liscenced?!

Yup, yup, yup! Sure is. Well, the manga is anyway. Books 1-2 are both out now for $7.99 each. Its looking to be a montly or bi-monthly book series.

Anyone into Cyborg 009? I really didn't like it at first but when it came on at 1:30 AM on Cartoon Network on Friday nights, it grew on me. Why doesn't this air on Toonami instead of that gay Rave Master? The manga of 009 also looks interesting. I like the art style. It reminds me of Osamu Tezuka's works.

[tempest]

Wait, wait, wait-- Hunter x Hunter is liscenced?!
no the anime is not licensed

to deaf hmmm its huge fan service show/ from studio gainax, and maid show hmmm geneon license anybody?

yea i picked up elfen lied vol1 last week very good dvd all smooth animation, adv did great job with the show dub i didn't check so can't say anything bad or postive about that,only minor thing is i wish they did art design for the dvd case and box ,but anyway .
i also picked up gunslinger girl dvd and box so for good show i love the soundtrack. anyway peace

[Tekno Virus]

Anyone heard of Heat Guy J?

I think it's one of the better animes out there. Underrated, i think. Episode 3 was so badass with the introduction of Boma. Usagi, where is my Usagi?

[DeafNYCPlayer72]

no the anime is not licensed

to deaf hmmm its huge fan service show/ from studio gainax, and maid show hmmm geneon license anybody?

"He is My Master" anime and manga are really having huge fan service. Manga is published by Square-Enix. It is not licensed yet. I still wonder if American company will change three maids' ages because all of three girls are middle school students (Japanese = American Junior High school).

Elfen Lied anime is very good. I will check Elfen Lied manga later.

[ReggieHadoken]

I finished reading Dr. Slump vol. 1. Man, this stuff is hilarious.
N'Cha!

I found out there is Tokyo Babylon manga! 7 books to be exact. So I'm guessing TB takes place and then X comes in. The manga actually looks pretty interesting.

I picked up Cyborg 009 manga books 1-2. I had no idea this stuff was from the 1960s. 1963 to be exact, I think. I also didn't know that 009 has all of the other 8 cyborgs abilties and then some. And he's half-Japanese. This stuff may be old but it still looks good.

[Emil]

I found out there is Tokyo Babylon manga! 7 books to be exact. So I'm guessing TB takes place and then X comes in. The manga actually looks pretty interesting.

X was incredibly good but I found Tokyo Babylon rather bad. I guess it's worth watching if you want to know the relationship between Seishirou, Hokuto and Subaru but other than that, I don't know...

Edit: Yes, Elfen Lied is some good stuff...although I'm still wondering what they were smoking when they created it. Too bad the new missing episode (OVA?) that came out for Elfen Lied wasn't that good.

i think they weren't smoking anything i like how they persent the story with huge the amounts of volience, and aother dark things like i hear in the later eps which helps spoints out the themes in the show like innocence lost, i'm enjoying this more then what i thought only down side of the dvd release is adv didn't get the art work dvds from the japanesse dvds,glad i have somebody hooking me up in that dept.
i'm glad companies are releasing shows thats seems like there never make it out here cuz of they adult content or tabbo themes like EL, and kk which is another good series.

Oh I like tabboo themes (I rely on anime to bring those), but it just didn't seem as necessary to have young girls being ripped to pieces (even if they weren't totally human). Still, the oddness of this anime was certainly refreshing.

[Genocide3366]

Just checked out the R2 dvd art for EL. Yeah it's way cooler. Most of the time R2 art is best. I don't see whats wrong with just keepin it the way it is.

liceisne fees i guess, this where geneon funa standout more then rest in that dept, adv here and there go with r2 dvds like with eva plat.gantz, peacekeepers, and cc why they didn;t go with r2 artwork for el is something i have no idea, i mean they license the show before ep1 even aired. but still great show.

[WasFemto]

Just picked up GTO vol.24. All I can say is :wow: Only one more volume to go and it's over :clap: :sad:

[tragik]

oh, thanks guys.

[ReggieHadoken]

Well man. I guess I'm just a hopeless romantic and a sucker for love stories in anime and manga because not only do I want to pick up Video Girl Ai graphic novels but a new series called I"s (Eye-Zoo) has caught my attention. Both series are done by the same creator. At least the Video Girl Ai anime is only 6 eps. Now I just need to find it on DVD.

[Stabby]

Yeah, Girls Bravo is the smuttiest series I've seen in a long, long, long time. (http://voiea.net/gb2.avi)

[FatalFuryD]

Nice and perverted, just the way it should be.

OK, Tempest I think you might be aware of this, but just in case you weren't they're doing a new Hellsing, it's gonna be OVA and the title is called Hellsing Ultimate. I've no idea what the studio is, I guess Gonzo? Well, that's all I know.

[Crusader]

yes i heard bout this , but its not gonzo thats doing the series its the studio that did heatguy j with geneon backing , more info bout show be at cons comming up i'm sure like how many eps, if they follow the manga dear god that would so rock buti'm holding my breath here till i hear more. i agree about girls bravo and funny thing is geneon is getting the dvd verison which shows more fanservice then what aired on japan. i may pick it up just for heck of it. later

[Genocide3366]

Yay! Picked up EL box today. Obviously Im happy! I'll be watching it tonight. When I picked it out my mom asked me if there is anything bad in it since the box is covered in blood. I straight up told her, "yeah there's lots of killing in it". LAWLZ.

[ReggieHadoken]

I'm almost finished reading vol. 1 of Cyborg 009. I can't beleive I disliked this series before. This is some very good stuff. It is old but still very cool. I like how the story revolves around war and the conspiracy to keep it going so the makers of the weapons can keep getting rich off of it. I can't believe how fast I've breezed through the first book. I was hooked from the prologue. Now I can't wait to see the first 8 eps on DVD uncut.

About Toonami. They need to ditch Rave Master and Duel whatever and put some good anime on. Those shows are just screwing up an otherwise solid cartoon/anime Saturday night lineup.

[WasFemto]

Picked up Giant Robo vol.1 and Lupin III : Island of the Assasin/Wahlter P38. I haven't watched all of it yet. Fell asleep in the begining/middle of GR, I was just sooooo pooped from today BUT I can say this shit was sweet. It just hit the ground running, gonna watch the rest of it tomorrow. ROBO PUNCH!!


Lupin III only watched alittle bit as well (Shield was coming on and I think my dad would rather watch that then Lupin, both awesome but c'mon man it's fucking LUPIN!!!) anyways only saw the first 10 minutes of it and I already liked. Probably watch the rest before I go to bed.

The trailers on Lupin were interesting. How is Gunslinger Girl? Baki the Grappler looked cool as fuck. I don't like Child Prey from DRE, but I sorta liked it when it was playing during the trailer. It's supposed to be the intro which imho kinda blows, but oh well.

[WasFemto]

Anyone having trouble finding the SC dvds? Either I'm getting there at the wrong time or they are ALWAYS sold out. I went to pick up vol.2 and vol.3(?) today but neither was there. I've seen em'all bla bla and shit but I heart Fat Fuu.

[ReggieHadoken]

Hey, WasFem, you gotta let me know how that Lupin III movie is. I've been wanting to see that ever since I saw the trailer of it.

SC dvds?

[WasFemto]

SC = Samurai Champloo. I got vol.1+box+bandana when it came out and it's getting lonely by itself.


Not to mention my little bro and friend are up my ass about deleting the fansubs and not getting the dvds when they come out.

[WasFemto]

So I was at the Tokyo Pop website (checking about the Lupin III manga) and apparently SC is getting a manga adaption. It'll probably like the CB ones. I believe it's do out in October.

[Stabby]

Oh yeah, the SC manga. I remmeber that from back in the day.

[WasFemto]

SC = Samurai Champloo.

two quick notes.

1.i heard cyborg 009 is possibly what inspired all the sentai series in japan..sentai=power rangers ...hell inspired possibly x-men but i doubt stan knew what manga was at the time

2.rave master is cn sad attempt at competing with pokemon, yugioh and any turn based card game/anime

[Stabby]

Yeah, the SC manga started back during the original run. Some groups picked up a few chapters, but I dind't really hear much after that.

[tempest]

i heard samething about sc nothing to exciting .

hmm femto seems like you have problem like i had when i was hunting down EL one store didn't have it and another one did oh i got sc3 today ggvol6 and last 2 disks on PA. which i want watch tonight. peace

[Spiderjericho]

I finally finished watching Full Metal Alchemist. I'd put it into my top five Anime series of all time.

I love the adult morality issues presented to Ed and Alphonse.

Hmm...a new Samurai Champloo DVD? I guess I'll pick it up along with Chapelle.

I'm going to watch Witch Hunter Robin and Wolf Rain next.

[ReggieHadoken]

I breezed through Cyborg 009 manga vol. 2 today. Man, this stuff is just too Good. Black Ghost keeps sending 00 cyborgs after the first 9 they created. And 009's abilities are just tight. He's supposed to have all 8 of his comarade cyborg abilities but thus far, I've only seen him use his accelaration and his strength. I'm guessing he taps into his other powers as the series goes along. And yes, Cyborg 009 did infact inspire Power Rangers, Voltron and Such. Heck, Cyborg 009 series creator Shotaro Ishinomari also made Masked Rider.

Started vol. 1 of Hunter X Hunter Manga a few hours ago. It started off slow but its begun to pick up. Leorio just has me giggling off the walls. And without spoiling anything, can someone please tell me whether Kurapika is a male or female? Seriously, I can't tell and no one has referred to this person as a he or a she.
:confused:

[tempest]

k looks likes alot of geneon new shows are going be getting box sets right after the last vol like gungrave and now R.O.D which is really cool now since you don't have wait like half year for them like you did trigun( wish geneon would remaster that show and do better artbox ,but anyway.
speaking of geneon i'm hooked for there new big shows since watching the trailers, and seeing has what stuido behide it
one fafner

2d melody of oblivion

3rd being gankustuou *hopes geneon uses the r2 artwork anyother artwork would look so.. strange considering the visuals are for this show.
k enough rambling later.

[WasFemto]

Just watched Lupin III Island of the Assasins. This was one of the sweetest Lupin films I seen in awhile. It's got the usual Lupin goodness mixed in with some Real Folk Blues/Hard-Boiled type shit.

I need to pick up the last vol. of PA as well. Can't wait to see how this ends.

[tempest]

huge adv sale on rightstuf all there dvds 30% great time pick up couple good shows. peace

[WasFemto]

^ cool to know.

Maybe I'll finish Azumanga. Only have the first 2 volumes.

[Spiderjericho]

yeah, it would be an awesome sail if their prices were a little cheaper. I looked at getting Azumanga series and Evangelion Platinum, but the discs came out to about $17.99 (not really a big discount over just getting them from Best Buy).

Best Buy is having a decent sale on Azumanga where the second volume is $6.99, the third and fourth are $9.99 (the six is $11.99 I think). I guess between Right Stuff and Best Buy, you could probably complete your collection.

oh i agree with you there i'll save off this sale for bills and i already spent why to much on anime already,but knowing me in the last min i'll get eva plat. dnangel, and azumanga then have 2 series done going along with wolf rain, and P.A ( good series can't wait see how masses on here respond to the show when it airs on As.
only thing good about righstuf sale is if its geneon sale which bestbuy prices are still high ,and righstuf bundle sales which they havn't done in long time. later

[WasFemto]

Just watched ep.5&6 of Basilisk. Show is just too damn good. :tup: I'm going for the Kouga group, howabout you all?

[Emil]

I can't believe you guys actually buy your anime...perhaps I'd buy a few of my favourite all-time series, but you guys must be rich...I know if I were to buy all the anime I have on my cds/dvds, it would probably be over $10000.

[Spiderjericho]

snip

Well, I went to Best Buy yesterday and purchased Azumanga Vol. 2, 3, 4 and 6. I still need the other volumes. Also picked up Samurai Champloo Vol. 3.

I'm probably going to wait until there's a Full Metal Alchemist Collection, before I buy that (great series though).

And Right Stuff needs a buy four get two free sale...

[WasFemto]

DLing the first two episodes right now. This is some more old-school goodness fromt the late-great 80s and was one of the inspirations for EVA. This series is from the creator of the original Gundam as well...I believe.

Anyways peep this shit!

[WasFemto]

Just watched the first episode of Ideon. The alien chick Karara is hot as all fuck as well as the scientest lady with pink hair ( forgot the name but she reminded me of Haru Haru from FLCL).


Going to peep the second episode later on, but right now gotta go to my friends for a BBQ and to play some T5 (wish they played VF :bluu: )

[Spiderjericho]

UGH. Just watched the third volume of Samurai Champloo. I hate the episode pacing. I guess if it were a longer series, then I wouldn't mind these random episodes, but I want to get to the Sunflower Samurai already (or give me background into the characters).

i see what your saying,but its sort like bebop pacing, but you do get little insight of the characters, like mugen in the first 2 eps,and jins in the 3rd, and the 4th ep being interesting recap ep. like i'm saying now i'm enjoying the ride its fun show. i just can't wait for oct for geneon new big show.
later

[Crusader]

Watching Yakitate Japan. I fucking love this anime. I suggest everyone to go ahead and watch it. YES it's about baking bread and I also thought, "wtf? Sorry, not my thing..." but I gave it a chance and I am glad I did. Tsukino is incredibly hot... god I love her.

[FatalFuryD]

^^shit's so over the top it's ridiculous. Not nearly as over the top as Hikaru no go though. AND it's over 26 eps! Funi or Pioneer(still not used to the new name, fact I can't even spell it) better get this

[WasFemto]

Just picked up P.A. vol.4. Gonna watch it tonight since watching it while the sun just doesn't feel right.

The Count of Monte Cristo looks ill as does alot of the trailers on this DVD.



Probably gonna peep ep.2 of Ideon right now.

[Genocide3366]

Best Buy is selling Please Twins LE Box for $19.99. They are become more rare/expensive to find so I'd suggesting getting the box now if you planned on doing so.

So I watched Vol. 1 of Elfen Lied and....the dub is the worst I have ever heard. I've never had any complaints before about a dub I've listened to. There's no emotion, its all throwed off. The sub though is EXCELLENT! As they usually always are.

Anyway, I've had episode 1 of Basilisk setting on my desktop for about two weeks. I think I'm gonna watch it tonight.

Edit:
K, watched it. 1 word, TRICKERY.

I'm really digging Ideon. You all should chek this out! The intro song me owns me for free. Finished Kino no Tabi yesterday and all I can say it :wow: .

[Spiderjericho]

I finished watching Ninja Scroll TV. Tempest, you were right.

It was some monster-of-the-week, Voltron-form-blazing-sword type show.

I don't think it lives up to the original movie.

Seeing the Basilik thread makes me want to watch it.

[nasci]

Hey guys, I have a friend who normally makes costumes for local films and theatre, but they are trying to break into doing some cosplay costumes for people. Anyone know of a good place or thread that I could post their info? Well it's http://www.skullandberries.com

[Stabby]

Trinity Blood is the worst show of the year.
Just watch Speed Grapher and be satisfied.

[Genocide3366]

I've never seen anything from Ghost In The Shell, but it looks interesting. Should I buy GitS:SAC? Also, when does the movie take place in the story? Do they even relate?

[HellSap]

GITS SAC is an alternate world where GITS movie never took place / happened the way it did. Kusanagi is still her normal self and never merged with Puppet Master.

and trinity blood is ass.
