Haha turns out that drawing isn't as good as I thought it was.

Spoiler

the thumb's too short and the perspective of the palms warped-short

^that's an actual spoiler, don't read it if you still want it to appeal to you as a good drawing.

 

[Loliblade ver2]

I read it.


Still appeals to me as a good drawing.


Your complaint is dumb.

 

[AOS-]

It is to someone who doesn't draw of course. btw I already posted some alternative colours for your posts...

 

[Loliblade ver2]

I'm waiting for you to recreate the image.

Permission to drop FMA:B for Serial Experiments Lain?

Lain's great (I'm such an egotistical bastard ), but why drop FMA:B which is also quite good? I want to agree with Loli because I think FMA:B is awesome, but if you're really not enjoying it, at least you'd be dropping it to watch Lain and not something stupid.

Your criticisms are valid. However, I still like the drawing.

I like the way you think sometimes, Seaman.

I only had the thought of dropping it because it just puts me to sleep.

 

[Loliblade ver2]

I like the way he thinks most of the time.


Because I think the same way.


But then he thinks about older ladies and I'm like wtfIdon'tthinklikethis.

Dude, WUUUUUUTTTT. Then again, I feel the same way about Bebop.

 

[Lain]

Drop Fullmetal Bebop Cowboy Alchemist, watch Bokurano.

Bebop isn't putting me to sleep...Spikes' dubbed VA is pretty damn good, but I still don't like dubbed scripting; doesn't sound natural.

The tone of speech, the pace and responses sound more natural in Japanese, and I can tell because it's similar to Chinese.

 

[Loliblade ver2]

Didja check out the FMA:B dub at least?

Dubs are more natural-sounding than the language used in subs, IMO... but subs get away with it because you don't actually hear it being said aloud, you're just reading it.

Forgot to mention... sweet Geass avatars, AOS. 👍
I'll be sticking with Misato for now though.

Just tried the evangelion ENG dub. Who ever did the dub deserves to be shot in the face 👍. This is my first time hearing a bad dub. All the other dubs I watched were fine like gundam, FMA, etc. Yes I know, obvious response.

That's because you never grew up learning an Asian language

And yes I did have to play dub for a few episodes because the subbed versions weren't working at the time. Don't remember what they sounded like.

Also, if Jordan's closing up the Social Groups, I've already planned to migrate the entire list to BR.. OR it can also go to the blog. http://animeguideproject.wordpress.com/

Yo, you're joking, right? Except for Misato snorting in episode 1, the dub is flawless!!!

Not really, but like I've said before... dubbed Gendo is the only true Gendo to me. <3 his voice, makes his cold commands sound extra badass. And really, the same goes for all the technobabble about sync ratios and AT fields and stuff of that nature... reading that dialog gets the point across, but hearing it with the English voice actors makes it exciting to me.

That's because you never grew up learning an Asian language

What's being said in Japanese =/= what the subs say, just as much as what's being said in Japanese =/= what's being said in the dub.

The Japanese dialog might sound natural to those who know Japanese, but that doesn't make the english subs natural-sounding.

 

[AOS-]

Okay okay it's a good dub, moving on.....

I've hyperlinked the Blog (for our reviews) in my sig... "The Anime Guide Project" (TAGP).

Start making accounts so Jaim or I can invite you slowpokes.

What's being said in Japanese =/= what the subs say.

Duh, I was talking about the way they speak, shout, sigh, react, everything you hear in their voices aside from the dialogue.

Guilty Crown ep 12: O.O

Spoiler

Shouldn't they have drawn Gai a little older in the flashback?

This episode was crazy. So glad the show is back.

I think they did a great job with that dub.

 

[Loliblade ver2]

Guilty Crown is back and at its finest 👍

Spoiler

Holy incest, Batman! MANA WANTED TO GET FREAKY WITH HER BRO.

I guess it's nice to know that any future Shu/Inori relationships won't be incestuous... She just looks like his sister.. and sounds like her. Odd.

But goddamn this episode was awesome.

 

[Sephy]

Thermae Romae is hilarious!

 

[nk4e]

Now watching: Tales of Earthsea again and Seven Samurai.

Thermae Romae is hilarious!

Write a review for something!

DiddyK, move your review to the blog!

John the Thong, Post a review as well. You must have watched something recently enough to write something!

 

[Sephy]

Write a review for something!

I was going to write one or two on Saturday. Just trying to figure out what I want to start with.

 

[AOS-]

Start with something you finished recently, like Haganai or Children chasing Lost Voices.

I'm going to laugh when GC and MN are done. I ain't writing one on MN though. I've forgotten too much stuff... the Reassortment refreshed my memory so it's not as bad...

 

[Loliblade ver2]

This review talk is boring!

 

[AOS-]

You write a review too... on Erioland.

I'm TRYING to get people talking right now... that > boring.

It's definitely going to be things I've finished recently.

That isn't technically "finished". We're all still waiting for the last episode lol.

I could write a review about Erioland, but would I? Nah, I haven't been writing much lately and don't feeeel like it!

Talk dirtay to me, baby!

Honestly, Erioland already seemed finished... Meme already broke the 4th wall saying it was the last episode.

It's not supposed to be though. Last episode didn't air due to tsunami.
