The General Anime Thread...

Surely that can't be your current wallpaper.

Just finished the first episode of Welcome to the NHK:

 

[Lain]

It all makes so much sense now...

Steins;Gate is just a Welcome to the NHK ripoff, except with the craziness toned down a bit and with a mediocre time travel plot thrown in.

It's a letter "O", not the number "zero".... 🤬

Fixed.

I am the middle of reading it..lol I always found that the Manga is a bit better than the Anime. Though some titles I tend to lean towards the Anime side..( Like Fate Stay Night and Initial D)

Yeah, manga usually is better. Rarely does the anime surpass the manga it's based off of. This is especially true on Shojo and Shonen anime. For example, Rosario + Vampire manga>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Rosario + Vampire anime.

Gonzo took out so much stuff that set itself apart from other series, and what made it so great in the first place. They just left in the romantic comedy stuff, removed action from

Spoiler

Tsukune when he's a vampire, and later a ghoul; They had him transform into a vampire only once. Basically, they removed the stuff that showed his growth as a character, and made him a great protagonist,

and left in just all the fanservice. Not to mention, the canon material they put in such an odd order, and it screwed things up. I can only hope when a proper adaption that's true to the manga is made.

tl;dr Gonzo screwed up big time adapting Rosario + Vampire.

It's a race if we could do the driving of the courier trucks and planes and stuff

Otherwise, it's just a bet on whoever gets lucky... I can totally turn it into a race if I use Standard shipping at NAVI-TO, but I'll probably win.

Is that a new Eureka Seven?!!!:0

Better order soon, I'm sure it's going to be gone quite soon... LOTS of people want and ordered this. Luckily, the price tag stopped some people temporarily.

To Japanese otaku, the price usually on any stuff relating to the series they love is completely irrelevant (They'll pay just about any price to support their own market. Not all that many import our releases like Japanese companies think.), so not surprising.

 

[Loliblade ver2]

you guys weren't too talkative today, woo! Easy catch up.


Going to load up the new Guilty Crown and then Persona 4

 

[MHPALA]

It begins today.

Good luck emerging newtype:tup:.

About to start ZZ Gundam. PURU PURU PURU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[TheCorvette]

I looked, and it's true, a new Eureka Seven anime is going to premier. I loved the series, so I'm already looking forward to it. April, why must you be so far away?!!!!

Might as well post some E7 music.

True that it's common for the manga to be better than the anime, but in this case they're identical... except for the addition music and voice acting. And the fact that you can read through the manga faster than you can burn your way through all 74 episodes of the anime

 

[TheCorvette]

Speaking of the speed you can read manga, it usually takes less than 5 minutes to read a single chapter of Bleach.:|

Tite Kubo, what part of don't use too large of panels, and having too little dialogue do you not understand? Oh wait...

 

[Azuremen]

Ugh, E7... Let them suffer with it. Awesome for a bit and then it just goes down hill. I honestly wish I could unwatch the last two episodes because it would just be a better series without them.

Haven't you heard of End of Eureka Seven? It replaces the last two crappy episodes with an awesome ending. 👍

 

[TheCorvette]

Sentai, what's with this cover art?👎

Also, here's to hoping if our release sells well (As it sold gawd awful in Japan. Each single for both seasons sold only a few hundred copies each, while most singles sell at least a few thousand.), a season 3 could happen. With Japanese sales, it'll never happen.

 

[Azuremen]

I've not, and that would be quite nice. Provided this isn't trolling the guy that rambles about everything. Cause people do that, and then I have to ramble even more.

Guilty Crown Ep. 11:

Spoiler

It's getting real, son. Oh yes.

Why won't Shu just punch Yahiro in the 🤬 face?! I really can't stand him, he needs to die - trying to defend Jun's death when deep down he considered him a burden anyway. Daryl kills his father... What a surprise; just another person I want several feet under, preferably while he's still breathing.

Inori has been captured by whom I think is the person seeking the one with the King's Power. I have a feeling Shu is going to have some 'splainin' to do (especially now that Gai is either dead or severely injured). If he is dead and Yahiro and Daryl are not, I swear I will troll every possible GC thread on every forum on the internet.

T'was a joke, but you failed to catch it.

Haven't you heard of End of Evangelion?

haha, I actually laughed hard at it, but when I saw Azure didn't get it, it was even better.

Gulty Crown ep. 11:

Yay not a recap episode!

Spoiler

Dan, nooo!!! I liked Dan.

Shu finally manned up. I'm proud of him.

This is what I wanted Guilty Crown to be and now it's doing it. Did TC say this show is on break next week?

Haven't you heard of End of Eureka Seven? It replaces the last two crappy episodes with an awesome ending. 👍

 

[TheCorvette]

Yes, FUNimation who simulcasts the series the same day as Japan said that it's not airing next week.

[Sephy]

But I NEED the next episode! Like right now!

 

[TheCorvette]

Blame Japanese TV stations for making shows take breaks during the holidays.

Next week will have no One Piece, that'll be painful for me.

BTW, am I seeing 1/19 in that blog entry for Guilty Crown? Two full weeks off, uh, what?<_<

 

[Terronium-12]

Break? You can take a break after a particular two people die a horribly excruciating death.

Until then you keep airing episodes, dammit.

 

[TheCorvette]

These breaks will seriously affect my Winter break which FINALLY starts as of today. It'll be less enjoyable. They made me go to school all this week, including today. I get Friday off, all of next week off, and the Tuesday after that. So including weekends, I get only 11 full days off.<_<

Well, this could lead to me finally getting back to Pokemon Black Version. I haven't really played it much since March after I got that last gym badge.

 

[MHPALA]

^^ My break is almost over.

Time to watch GC .

Haven't played it much since... well, since I bought it actually.
