The General Anime Thread...

It's expensive and doesn't serve much purpose, like any quality figurine..

Fixed.

Apple products are just expensive... Most of 'em can be pretty useful.

Sculptures are decors, not tools, dummy.

 

[TheCorvette]

Well with figurines, people just like collecting them. It's similar to those who collect certain video games, comics, or DVD's, but leave them in the shrinkwrap.

 

[Lain]

Sculptures are decors, not tools, dummy.

Uh... that was exactly my point, dummy. You should be telling that to Loliblade instead.

Decors such as figurines = Not purposeful
Tools such as computers = Purposeful

We were talking about figurines, so his comparing them to Apple products which aren't just decor didn't make any sense. Thus the correction.

$370 Fate/Zero Box Set=Premium goodness with the 13 episodes (1 of which is 47 minutes long.), and has great purpose to any Fate or Type-Moon fan.

Your point? A box set isn't just decor... unless they leave it in the shrinkwrap.

 

[SuperShouden]

How come whenever I open this thread, no one is actually talking about anime?

 

[TheCorvette]

Because, we love talking about anime girls instead of actual content in anime.

 

[Loliblade ver2]

I would chat more about anime.... but no shows aired last week

Do you only watch currently airing shows?

 

[RACECAR]

I may not be interested in all those anime figures you guys love so much, but this I must have:

Am I the only one creeped out about that?

 

[Lain]

Am I the only one creeped out about that?

I'm not, but I am creeped out by the dude in the comments asking if it's anatomically correct.

 

[TheCorvette]

Yeah, how about he gets to a load of older titles? Go through my MAL list, click on dem tags for stuff older than 2007. Oh, to get tags to actually work (Currently, when you click on them, nothing happens.), MAL is experiencing issues, so you have to install this.

Try some of these Loli.

Or he could watch Bokurano like he said he would, which is 2007 on the dot.

 

[TheCorvette]

Is it a Winter 2007 anime that premiered January 1, 2007 in Japan? Though I doubt a show would premier on New Years Day.

 

[MHPALA]

Watched the whole first season of Ridebacks today. Pretty good anime series. 👍

You mean Rideback 👍. Yes it is a good show. Worth the 12 episodes imo. Like the Younha song used for the ending.

No it aired from April to September, if Wikipedia is to be believed.

 

[TheCorvette]

Rideback never really appealed to me. I didn't hear about it until ads started popping up for the limited edition release.

Also holy 🤬, you can still get the limited edition with the artbox and keychain!

[jeffgoddin]

5 pages in 3 hours???? And Supershoden had to ruin the all premo-strak we had going.

Screw Rei, but Misato's so much better.

Wow, Yay's breaking his loli-complex!

Those Kamina shades!!!

 

[Lain]

Wow, Yay's breaking his loli-complex!

I've always been a die-hard Misato fan, bro. 👍

Just because I like little girls, that doesn't mean I don't prefer older women.

 

[TheCorvette]

I love how AOS- isn't really all that into memes, yet he's pretty much using one.

Shakugan no Shana III (Final) Episodes 1-12 Review
http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/shakugan-no-shana-iii-final/episodes-1
A few things to note on availability, FUNimation probably is simulcasting it as they know many probably watched season 2 fansubbed (Because they were impatient people.), and they probably would have loved a legal way to watch the series as fast as possible.

Also, they have season 2, it's just they haven't been able to receive materials due to the Geneon Universal merger of Japan, hence why lots of Geneon stuff is out of print currently here.

Also, Gundam Unicorn restock, act fast people.

Gah, the Gurren Lagann movie LE's are disappearing!First movie on Rightstuf they list it as "We'll get it for you!", a sign they most likely won't get anymore, and then for movie 2, there's 193 copies left. Well, at least there's the regular editions.

[Loliblade ver2]

Obviously not I will get around to watching Bokurano SOON though.


TC, I don't care about your 2006 titles, I'll watch any show from any time period if someone reputable recommends them to me. Not just going to sift through titles because they're from a certain period of time.

 

[TheCorvette]

So I'm not reputable? How am I not?!!

Also, the point I was trying to make earlier is to try more older titles as there's a much different feel to many of them compared to the newer titles.

 

[Loliblade ver2]

I've seen older shows before, dummy.

 

[SuperShouden]

You mean Rideback 👍. Yes it is a good show. Worth the 12 episodes imo. Like the Younha song used for the ending.

Yes. I like the Mell song used for the intro, as well. Definitely a nice find. It's on Netflix streaming at the moment. Definitely a recommend to anyone who hasn't seen it. It's an unusual premise and well thought out and never over explained. That's one thing that made Ghost in the Shell so good. Different story, no lengthy explanation as to what was going on in the rest of the world. You got the gist of it over the course of the series, but, it didn't usually do the length explanations.

 

[TheCorvette]

I've seen older shows before, dummy.

But how many after you came here?

So I'm not reputable? How am I not?!!

Answer this Loli!!

Just what I thought, not all that much.

Also for shame having Cowboy Bebop on-hold still, for shame. How long has it been down there?
