The General Anime Thread...

[The Vanishing Boy]

-> ...

Just watched the first episodes of Welcome to the NHK and Clannad.

^ Both are good series in my book!

NHK left me confused. Also, with the appliances coming to life and that weird thing dancing during the credits freaked me out. I don't think I will return to that.

^ On a hikikomori standpoint, it does make some sense in a most psychological factor. Good thing it doesn't happen to me, it does with my cars though...

​

Clannad, on the other hand, seems pretty good. I think I like anime that take place during high school, so if any of you suggest any more anime to me, this may also be a good category too. I also think I have a think for Tsunderes and girls with ahoges (how do you pronounce that any way?). It also seems very funny. Plus I love the credit song. Only complaint is that the blonde dude sounds like he is about 10 years old. I feel this will be the next one I watch fully.

^ Pretty good!? THAT is an understatement! Clannad is by far is one of THE best I've ever watched. Many of the usual (and tiring) and endless/countless Filipino soap opera are garbage compared the two magnifacent seasons of Clannad.

-> You might probably like GTO, Lucky Star, Azumanga Daioh, Suzuka, & Onegai/Please Series (namely Teacher & Twins duo).

Because I made 'em for you all, goofballs... some of you didn't pick yours up.

^ Um, I didn't get the memo...

Potato is awesome, Air is a steaming pile of 🤬

 

[Dravonic]

Nihongo for the win. Dubs are for the weak

 

[Cano]

I have watched the english dub. It's even worse than the latin american spanish one. And that is saying A FREAKING LOT.

 

[TheCorvette]

Now we're in the pointless sub vs. dub debate, nice...

Potato is awesome, as a steaming pile of 🤬

^ For some reason, that's how I read your post.

Now we're in the pointless sub vs. dub debate, nice...

And now we're out of it.

 

[uMadson?]

I saw that talking thing. It kinda creeped me out.

That's DK for you.

We need a Team Rei, dude. There isn't one.

I'd be in it if she wore glasses.

There was. It just wasn't active. I was a former member of Team Rei before we started Team Mari.

Hey... you're one to talk about pointless debates

I did not exclude you...


Black Rock Shooter Official Art... for that anime.

Black Rock Shooter, Dead Master, Strength, Mato, Yomi and Yuu are confirmed to be in it.

Chariot.... I call it Taiga-on-wheels
Regardless, I love that crown.

???????????????

I prefer it over anime industry debates

 

[Cano]

I just saw this:

Screw your hard-to-find women...

You remember how some time ago you asked me Fuu or Gally and I answered Fuu? I was thinking about that the other day (yes, really) and not really. It's just that Fuu is one character that I deeply love, it's really weird. But my favorite character as an anime character has to be Gally.

Let's put it this way: You know how all my gurls wear glasses? Gally is so cool she doesn't, and she's at the top of my list.

 

[Dravonic]

???????????????

Loli just gave you your answer

 

[Lain]

Now we're in the pointless "sub vs. dub debate" vs. "anime industry debate" debate...

Where's Xzibit when you need him?

 

[TheCorvette]

Industry debates aren't really pointless because we're talking about how it's doing, what can be done to help it, etc. It goes onto the fate of the industry.

Industry debates are pointless because half the people here couldn't care less about industry.

 

[TheCorvette]

So they wouldn't care if the Japanese one went under completely?

 

[Cano]

nah.

 

[Lain]

So they wouldn't care if the Japanese one went under completely?

Maybe if that happened, some people here would be forced to watch some of those ancient pre-2011 shows...

 

[TheCorvette]

Without that industry, no new anime comes out, and all the other anime industries fold because the stuff they're distributing, the licenses automatically expire.

 

[Loliblade ver2]

Of course we'd care, but we'd rather not have it bog down the discussion. Seriously, this isn't a business topic, this is a topic about Japanese cartoons. Entertainment and business, two separate worlds.

I think we all understand that. Thank you for telling us though.

 

[TheCorvette]

You do realize the anime industry is a business right? What we're watching is part of a business.

 

[Lain]

Loli and Dravonic, why did you have to open Pandora's Box?

 

[AOS-]

I posted pics, stop talking about business!!!!! *flips TC's computer*

edjt: *shuts pandora's box and forces it down TC's throat*

....Okay, so what are you trying to say?

 

[TheCorvette]

What computer?This is a laptop!!

 

[Cano]

Gally (:

You do realize you have the attention span of a water flea, right?


I was stating that we should keep the business talk out of here. Which is(as hard as it may be to believe) referring to the anime industry.
