Anime shit

[deadpie]

All you animefags get in this thread and talk about anime.

Blah. You can talk about manga too I guess. Post whatever you feel like.


I'm currently reading Dogs: Bullets & Carange, Future Diary, and Apollo's Song. I heard the third one is really depressing, so I had to get this. Depressing shit makes me really happy.

Uh, I'm also watching Ao No Exorcist, which is doing alright. The stupid ass fucking filler episodes bother me and I hope they don't pull some "Courage Punch" ending to the season and actually let it flow with the story. I love the manga and it's probably my favorite series. Why? Because I'm a big fan of character progression. That's my favorite thing to read about in books and shit because I love reading about people, getting into their personalities and stuff. This does it really well and the plot is pretty good.

Also said this in another thread, but got the Ao No Exorcist OST.

/

I finished Uzumaki a while back and now I feel like reading Gyo and Parasyte soon, which are supposed to be disturbing and fucked up. Hopefully they are. Fucked up shit makes me happy.

/

Eventually I'll have to come down to the choice where I say, do I want to buy an ounce of weed or the DVD's of Natsume Yuujinchou? It's a hard decision. If only I could choose both and watch the series stoned. Well, life sucks and than you die.


Uh, talk people.

[Dog Desab]

I need some good anime/manga to read. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

[UnknownError]

I just watched Ouran High Host Club. *hangs head in shame and hides in corner*

[Magus]

I am still reading Dragon Head. Not scary, but it's not bad so far.

Huh. I just started reading the manga of Blue Exorcist (or Ao No Exorcist, or whatever you call it) today. Funny coincidence. I really like it so far, but I only read the first volume.

Parasyte is amazing, you should definitely read it. Really dark, bloody, and strangely profound.

Enjoy Blue Exorcist yo. The plot might seem slow, but it's all about progression. I like that they work more on characters and plot than pointless fight scenes.

Yeah, Parasyte does look exciting. I want to start going into Berserk after reading a few of the manga's online, but it's a never ending series and those kind of bother me.

I just watched Ouran High Host Club. *hangs head in shame and hides in corner*

That's a series that parodies other series, so don't be ashamed. I've watched a few episodes and found it alright.

[death_to_my_heart]

i like bleach angelic lair and some other one on adult swim

[HeroesAndCons]

I am currently in the prosses of not pocrastinating on anime cause i need more things to cosplay.
But i finished Darker than black.
I am currently
Reading, Alice in the Country of Hearts, and Anne Freaks

Watching, Gurren Logan (gah i have to start watching it again i pocrastinated big time) Highschool of the Dead, Durarara, and Angel Beats

[Dog Desab]

I keep trying to watch the movie Jin Roh. But I start watching movies when I'm really sleepy so Ive never got the chance to fully watch it without falling asleep and waking up a couple hours later and finding it's either at some part I don't understand cuz it's on repeat.

[Scooby Dooby Drew]

That reminds me, I watched Nausicaä Of The Valley Of The Wind the other day.
Definitely one of Studio Ghibli's best movies.

[Magus]

Yeah, Parasyte does look exciting. I want to start going into Berserk after reading a few of the manga's online, but it's a never ending series and those kind of bother me.I have read Parasite(first tankabon, though). It's not that scary -- it's fun read actually. It's like a shonen with more gore and shit.

[Lawliet]

I just finished re-watching Death Note. I just started watching Sacred Seven, mainly because it was the first anime other than Shippuden on the front page of Hulu. It seems alright, as far as the premiere. I think I might start watching Ao No Exorcist also, it sounds interesting.

Edit: Who also is annoyed by American Voice actors? Its the primary reason why I watch all my anime subbed.

[Vonn]

Enjoy Blue Exorcist yo. The plot might seem slow, but it's all about progression. I like that they work more on characters and plot than pointless fight scenes.

Amen.

This is probably my favorite show of the now, though that isn't saying much since I don't watch a lot of TV. I'll probably end up buying the manga too.

[deadpie]

I have read Parasite(first tankabon, though). It's not that scary -- it's fun read actually. It's like a shonen with more gore and shit.

Yeah, I started reading it and it's quite a funny fucker. I like it. Uh, I'm reading Solanin now, which is a Slice Of Life 400 page book. Pretty good so far, but it could never be any better than Not Normal, which is easily my favorite manga novel of all.

[Korashk]

I'm really excited for the series of Berserk movies being made.

[Zephyr]

I've never really read manga, I suppose I should sometime.

Currently I'm watching Gurren Lagan, as suggested by a friend.

[Magus]

Pretty good so far, but it could never be any better than Not Normal, which is easily my favorite manga novel of all.WTF Solanin, Slice of life, 400 pages? Wow. Never mind that. I personally don't like Slice of life. I like anything that's really weird.

I just caught myself reading 14 Years. A sci-fi horror.

[Perseus]

I'm watching Black Butler since my friend suggested it to me.

[MilitemDilectam]

I'm not a big anime fan..only one I ever got into was Fullmetal Alchemist

[Angel Androgynous]

I watched Black Butler, Elfen Lied, a bunch of yaoi and I wanna read Elfen Lied because the anime never finishes the story. :c I have to finish watching Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni, I want to start Death Note, Uraboku, Angel's Feather....maybe Angel's Sanctuary? Also I want to start on Shiki. (:

[Scooby Dooby Drew]

xxxHOLiC (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rx28WrsqhII)
This is definitely my favorite anime ever.

[DoctorWho]

I need some good anime/manga to read. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Hey I have a good one for you too read its called fruit basket manga/anime (NO DUH)

[Korashk]

I need some good anime/manga to read. Can anyone point me in the right direction?
What kinds of entertainment do you like? Just off my intuition, but I don't think you'll like Fruits Basket like the above poster suggested.

[Angel Androgynous]

I need some good anime/manga to read. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Fruits Basket is shojo AKA cutesy boo romance. (I don't like it much xD)
If you like action, I'd recommend Death Note or Shiki. If you like gore/psycho, I'd recommend Elfen Lied/Higurashi No Naku Koro Ni. Oh and I recommend Black Butler. ^_^ I've never seen Soul Eater, but my friends love it. Soo... yeah. Also there is a bunch of run-on anime and stuff. (Naruto, Bleach, One Piece...etc. Never watched those xD)
:yes:

[Perseus]

Oh and I recommend Black Butler. ^_^

That is, if you want to watch one hell of a butler, Dog Desab.

[JaredIsStupid]

i like yugioh and pokemon

[Philleeep]

I love Escaflowne, just finished watching it it has bad ending but i love it, also the films don't match up which is a shame but i don't mind

[Vonn]

xxxHOLiC (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rx28WrsqhII)
This is definitely my favorite anime ever.

It's great, even thought the only thing I can focus on is how tall Watanuki is.

[deadpie]

Watching the second season of Ookiku Furikabutte (Big Windup), which is extremely awesome. Ren Mihashi has to be one of my favorite characters ever. Reminds me of me when I used to be in sports.

[Vonn]

I'm almost done with xxxHOLiC, and Blue Exorcist episodes are coming too slowly. What should I watch next?

[Angel Androgynous]

Maybe Fullmetal alchemist? Or Death Note? I heard those were pretty good. ^_^

[Scooby Dooby Drew]

I'm almost done with xxxHOLiC, and Blue Exorcist episodes are coming too slowly. What should I watch next?

One Piece.
...
Though it is ridiculously long.

[Angel Androgynous]

Does One Piece have a plot or is it just:
"Let's do wacky pirate stuff!"

Cuz if it doesn't have a plot really then it has an excuse to be that long. (:

[Vonn]

Plot please.

Yes I'm too lazy to look those up for myself.

[Angel Androgynous]

Death Note has a plot. :D I'm actually planning on watching it later.
Oh and try Uraboku (Also on my list) I read a summary and the plot seems very interesting. (: It's only 24 episodes.

[deadpie]

I don't like One Piece or Naruto or any other never ending series.

Watch something strange like Serial Experiments Lain or Paranoia Agent.

[Scooby Dooby Drew]

Death Note is amazing, but I haven't read the manga in forever. (First manga I read though) Definitely read/watch it.

One Piece has a plot, it just.... has a lot going on. The over-arching plot is augmented by lots of story arcs, which in turn have even shorter story arcs, backstories, and flashbacks augmenting them. Honestly I find it brilliant, and the recent chapters of the manga have been moving the plot a lot faster I think.
It's about Monkey D. Luffy, a 17-year old, chaotic-good boy who sets out to become a pirate. His goal is to find the eponymous "One Piece", a treasure left behind by the Pirate King Gold Roger, and become the new King of the Pirates. When he was young he ate one of the Devil's Fruit, rare fruit that, when eaten, grant the eater incrdible powers but also makes them unable to swim, the Gomu-Gomu no Mi (Fruit of Rubber-Rubber, called "Gum-Gum Fruit" in most dubs/translations) which allows him to stretch any part of his body like rubber (it's much cooler than it sounds). I won't say any more because I don't want to turn this into a full story outline, but Here's the wikipedia page if you want to read more. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_Piece)

and yeah, it is somewhat endless, but still, it's managed to stay interesting over this whole time.

Uh huh. Is this another series with a lot of complicated cross-overs or something? Because I just want to watch a show without worrying about the plot being stretched out all over the place.

I'll just check out every show that's been mentioned so far later.

And is this the same Luffy from the really weird topic on HUG?

No cross-overs, but the plot is long enough that it can get somewhat confusing sometimes. (Good confusing though, Oda (the mangaka) connects stuff from the very beginning all the way to stuff that's happening right now, it's brilliant. It's like reading Harry Potter, sure it's really long, but the forethought that went into it is astounding.)

The thread about Wunder's car? Yeah, but that's offtopic.

[HeroesAndCons]

i started Yumekui Merry and angel beats. i perfer angel beats over Yumekui merry but its still good.
also i started reading Fruits Basket again!

[Angel Androgynous]

I might start reading Angel Sanctuary. The plot sounds beautiful.

[NomSan]

I love Higurashi.
Watching Kira now, too bad only 1 episode is out yet =(

[Angel Androgynous]

I love Higurashi.
Watching Kira now, too bad only 1 episode is out yet =(

Higurashi is amazing. :D I love Mion and Keiichi! Oh and Rena....

♥

[NomSan]

Higurashi is amazing. :D I love Mion and Keiichi! Oh and Rena....

♥

Yeah I know :D
My favorites are Takano, Shion and Rena ^^

[Angel Androgynous]

Have you seen Elfen Lied?


And I'm lovin' your Rena avatar. :D

[NomSan]

No, I haven't seen it.
Is it good? I could need a new anime to watch.

Hehe, thanks :D

[Angel Androgynous]

Elfen Lied is amazing. (: It's bloody, it's gory, and it's beautiful. I swear, it made me cry! (Almost)
It's aimed at males, but I know a LOT of girls who love that show. xD It's for everyone!...Well...not for little kids. xD
I suggest you watch the Subbed version.

I don't like dubs much...

(Pronounced LEED not "lied" since the title is based off the German poem "Elfen Lied" or "Elf Song"...it's not about elves by the way. xD)

[NomSan]

Okay, thanks!
I'll check it out :)

[HeroesAndCons]

OH MY GOSH i love this anime X3 it made me cry

[Angel Androgynous]

I love it toooooo...


Blah if I had the attention span I would've started Bleach....but it's wayy too long in my opinion.

[HeroesAndCons]

Bleach sucks, i used to be a hardcore fan but it dragged out and made it boring.
Ida u watch Gunslinger Girl

[Angel Androgynous]

Nope, never seen it. :P What's it about?

[Travis Is Losing It]

LOVE BLACK BUTLER. im watching soul eater now cause my sisters cousin got me on it

[HeroesAndCons]

Nope, never seen it. :P What's it about?

Basically this agency is taking girls that have been through trauma and stuff, brainwash them and train them to be assassins.

[bigdaddy101]

The only manga/anime I've ever been ever interested in was Dragon ball and/or Dragon ball Z!
