The General Anime Thread...

I'd pity the Fuu who would have to go through all those "Fool" puns. Wait, that's not how I wanted to put it...

"Hestia Factor". That's all you really need to know about that. Most people tend to know that show all thanks to the "Hestia Factor", for the better or worst...

It roped me in. But hey, I'm not complaining

Find me some Fuus!

^ Uhh, which one!?

Where's that held at?

I'm going to Ai-Kon this July, which is (probably) smaller than AX, but I loves it.

For those who watched the show (not me), this might be a little sad.

^ Most of my anime friends here always mentions about Ai-Kon. But at the moment, I'm too focused on AX.

From the '09 event

^ Never forget!

What the hell. You don't have 6 months visiting the thread dude, you know who I'm talking abouttttttttt

@Heldenzeit Upotte is entertaining. The cover art is quite odd, but it's alright on closer inspection.

Elle is definitely the best.

Oh, it's a whole "comic book" series about Rayearth vs Mr. T. Why am I not shocked?

Ah right, Internet. 👍

Of course you won't complain 'bout the "Hestia Factor". Very few would, after all...

-> ...

^ Uhh, which one!?

You just did not ask that, Foo. You just did not ask...

Fool, I mean "fool"! Dammit, now I can't help but confusing the two! Curse you, similar sounding words!

I'm kidding, by the way. But really, don't forget; I'm pretty sure it isn't the Fuu from Naruto because Naruto belongs to something I like to call "Cano's Rubbish List", so that one is unlikely. Samurai Champloo's Fuu could also count, since Cano does not consider that show as rubbish. But if you pay attention, you'll realize that the number 1 Fuu for Cano will always be the young knight girl with green armor and the glasses. Cano Facts #23, my friend.

It's still not out yet.

^ Argh too many good (looking) figurines now!!!

-> Good thing collecting figs is not my priority at the moment.

So Shiki wears Timberlands huh.... Maybe I should get a pair, it will make my knife skills better.
Or are they Wellingtons? Hmmmm....

@The Vanishing Boy where do you find these pictures

In other news, Initial D..... 3 episodes in and it's rub.... I lie , I like it. If you enjoy cars, JDM cars that is, as it has been stated earlier in this thread, then it's fun:tup:. Especially since I like being technical about a lot of automotive tid bits. I like the car sounds, nothing more to say about that. As far as animation goes, I know it's old but you gotta love 90s CG though , reminds me of Beast Wars and Reboot. I wonder, if Initial D had a Redline approach and an Unlimited Budget then I wonder how it would look.

Guess after the 1st season of ID I'll lay my hands on Chunnibyou

 

[Not_A_Guest]

Initial D

Hey after you finish the four goddamn seasons and the third stage movie, you can move on to the most recent movies.
They use a completely different animation style; I think it's much more pleasing to the eye.

 

[SVX]

You mean six seasons, right?

 

[Downhill Dino]

Does 3rd Stage really count as a season?

 

[TayeezSA]

Is it wrong for me to want a pair of New Balance shoes and to put a cup of water filled to the brim in my car's cupholder , drive and not let it spill?

I think I have a problem....

 

[Downhill Dino]

Spoiler alert: It'll spill. Trust in the fact about every guy has tried it.

TGAT Activity for the Week.

If you have access to a car that you can drive then please try the Official Initial D Water Cup test.

Results by the end of the week

 

[SVX]

Does 3rd Stage really count as a season?

True, but he still missed Final Stage.

 

[AOS-]

@Tayeez_SA, I'll see if I can get that requested doodle this week. I wanted to spend the entire working week working on another project, so I'll try and make this a quick one.

 

[Techy]

This bit made be laugh

Spoiler: UBW 23 spoiler

Next week's eppy is the last one, sadly. I'm gonna miss watching UBW, and the (rather salty) discussions every episode brings. T'was a nice ride until Heaven's Feel comes around

 

[AOS-]

Is Heaven's Feel going to be the epilogue?

 

[Techy]

Is Heaven's Feel going to be the epilogue?

No, it's completely separate. ufotable's gonna adapt it into a set of movies. The last ep for UBW is the epilogue for UBW only. Probably should have clarified that in my post

 

[Not_A_Guest]

You mean six seasons, right?

The four seasons are

• 1st stage
• 2nd
• 4th
• 5th (I didn't count Final Stage because it's too short to be called a "season

And then Third Stage movie and the new Legend movies.

Ah, I suspected that'd be the case.

Don't forget the live action movie.

 

[SVX]

I found that kinda trashy if I'm honest... tried too hard.

 

[Not_A_Guest]

Don't forget the live action movie.

I'm sorry that was Chinese or from Hong Kong, I can't be bothered to remember.

High School DxD BorN was absolutely terrible but I loved it. It's a sickening addiction.

^ I'm a web-surfer, so I stumble on somethings.

Joining the club of anime series finishing for good... welp. Rakuen's ending was pretty good, and satisfying all the same. Going to be a bit of a shock to not have anything to look forward to on a Monday any more, though.

Also, I just couldn't help but laugh at this:

Spoiler: Spoiler

So typical of the character.

Where does that leave me now? Thinking about starting NGE, but I think I'll leave that until I've finished Kuroko no Baske's three seasons.

Buuuut, this does have to be the best opening I've listened to.

Well, that depends on what you want to see next; if you just want some good ol'fashioned shonen sports action, with all your classic tropes and a basketball game, Kuroko is your best bet. Don't worry about the "emo main character" claims that other people have said, they are overdone. Kuroko isn't "emo", he's just silent most of the time.

Now if you want real emo, plenty of Japanese school boy screaming and the most mind-boggling ending in anime history, NGE should be your choice. Also robot action and Asuka/Rei (pick your favorite and then watch as the other side tries to entice you to join them, haha). It won't be an easy anime to stomach for plenty of reasons (storyline and more gore than a GTA game), but it has quite the reputation... And the opening song is good, if anything.
