You spent that much on Fate/Zero after already having seen it? What's wrong with you?


Also, you must have a terrible memory... You post about that crap all the effing time...
 
HAHAHA this place is alive again. It's been a REALLY, REALLY long time since I laughed hard, and I mean hard-as-in-unappropiate-for-the-time-hard about something. The book thing and japanese market was amazing. What a jewell.
 
Forgot to mention, but oh how I can't wait for Shakugan no Shana III (Final) to be over. Episode 23 was yet another horrible episode, and basically pointless. Can't wait to be done with this garbage, and get the ending.

If anyone wants to know how it ends next Friday so I can save them time from enduring this garbage, let me know, and I'll tell you how the show ends so you can drop it in peace.

Also finished Guilty Crown. That ending, my feelings are fairly mixed about it. 8/10

I've got two words for him: "anta baka?"
Dude, Neon Genesis Evangelion is INCOMPARABLE to Naruto, Bleach...or One Piece.
Mainly because it has much less filler than them. :sly:

Endless 8 just took on a whole new meaning.

Anyways, gotta go calm Asuka down now, after that Malaysian GP.

The guy's response to my PM.
Eva's an interesting case.
I've watched the TV series, but not the movies.

It ran in an evening time slot, and my impression is that it was intended as a modern-Gundam-style triple-demographic show (kids + otaku men & otaku women), and then as it went on the director sent it in the direction of more "adult-ish."
Looking around the net a bit, there's some debate amongst Japanese posters whether it was "for kids" or "for adults."

I've been in the habit of calling it a "kids show" to contrast with shows aimed only at adults--it certainly did sell robot toys to children and wasn't dependent on adult otaku to make all its money. It might be compared to the topic of whether or not Star Wars movies are "for kids."

It probably belongs in the same category as modern Gundam and Code Geass R2, so a "kids + otaku" show, or maybe "family" show.
 
I wouldn't call it a family show either, regardless of time slot. It's cool if it sold toys to kids though, that sounds fair enough.

Reminds me of what I'm not going to have tonight...:(
 
Madoka Magica continues to frustrate me.
I'm 6 episodes in, and Madoka STILL hasn't become a magical girl. I'm starting to wonder if she ever will become one. Shaft is trolling me, almost as much as CLAMP trolled the entire Blood fanbase with Blood-C last Summer.

I'm curious why you are so impatient for her to become a Puella Magi. Most of the show I was hoping she would not, as the Kyubei is clearly operating on ulterior motives, and just has a very unsettling feeling to it.

Also, watch a show before you talk about it too much. It helps your argument quite a bit.

yeah, what about QB, and the stuff he's telling Madoka?

edjt: It's TC's lucky day.... See if you had figurines, I might have supported you, but you probably wouldn't have anything I'd like to own anyway.





Asks for artist name; gives me character name instead. You're getting there, Michael; baby steps if needed :P...

Found the artist nevertheless, so I ain't that mad. Ateka:

They're pretty simple in terms of content, but I like it never the less; no black outlines, soft tones, and loose.
👍

My head hurts just by looking at all that. Why is that so, bud?

Also, it had been AGES, AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGES since I last saw anyone anywhere even mention something about Utena. Man what a trip to the old days. Believe it or not that was aired here on open TV... uncensored and unchanged, just dubbed (quite good I might add). I remember it was so SO gay. I liked the glasses girl (surprise).
 
I don't know what you mean by "no black outlines" but all of those look like they have black outlines.

I also don't know what you mean by loose because I don't see your mom in any of those pictures. :3

Why would you want to do such a thing?:(

@T-12, never thought I'd see anything from Revolutionary Girl Utena in this thread. I don't know much about it, but from what I understand, it was REALLY popular with people during the anime boom, but unfortunately bombed in sales for Central Park Media. Nozomi Entertainment has brought it back in remastered (Is that what they did?) box sets, and people were extremely hyped. I need to see the show sometime.

This thread needs some Ouran High School Host Club.


I'm still baffled at the fact I'm like the only person in this thread who has seen the show, despite it ranking 9th in popularity on MAL, with 100,000+ people having it under "Completed".
And you could have if you didn't get Fate/Zero. I'm surprised you didn't know this.
Sigh...

"Oh no, he got Fate/Zero, that means he'll NEVER be able to get anything else EVER!!!"

I'll never will be able to get through to people why I bought Fate/Zero, and why it was worth the money to me will I?
 
I love how he truly believes we care about what MAL and other anime popularity sites say. It's just so tender.

Also, never watch Utena, any of you. NE-VER.
 
I'll never will be able to get through to people why I bought Fate/Zero, and why it was worth the money to me will I?

As long as it was worth it to you, that's what matters. I spent $2379 on aftermarket goodies so far this year, only on my car, and it's all worth it because I'm actually saving money by buying used.

But of course I have the money to purchase all these.
