Hahaha I remember I downloaded that little clip agesssssssssssss ago, on my old pc, on dial up.

Honestly I only like dbz because it was the best cartoon back in the day (when I was 5-10), to me it is just nostalgic

Ranma ½

I'm watching first episode.

I am very confused.

In a sexual way.

I also really enjoyed the first episode but never very sure if I'm allowed to fap or not.

You're not watching anime, you're watching ear rape.

I have to disagree with you here :P

If I'm watching something like bleach for example I wouldn't even bother if there was no dub, I want to watch the show not read the subtitles, it really annoys me - might as well read a book with flashing lights. Going back and forth between what they say and the actual image gives me a headache and that aint why I watch anime :P

Also, japanese voice actors are terrible - everytime someone offends their honor they half scream as if they're cumming, and their honor, or something along those lines, seems to get offended so much that the show is just like one japanese guy blowing his load for hours and hours. That's what I call ear rape >.>

I like anime just as much as the next guy, it's rather silly how people think they're a bigger fan for watching original japanese versions, really it's all got downsides, and I pick the one thats easier on me, after all I watch it for enjoyment.

But I'm sure someone will get all righteous on me regardless, oh well, so be it.

That's the style, it's how it's done. You'll get crappy ones like any others profession, they're not all good. However to blanket them all as terrible is not fair.

Mrs. showed me Ranma. It's OK to be confused. It's how it is so popular. Just embrace it.

another messed up one is FLCL. same kind of randomness and amazingly weird.


i dont understand why some people feel so weird towards subbed anime. I enjoy it because the native tongue and emotions expressed goes well with the content of the anime which is very japanese in itself. It's like watching "The Raid" or "Old Boy" in english dub where the voiceovers are terribly done and simply don't express the culture which surrounds the film. majority of the jokes, expressions and the feel of the content can only be truely expressed in the native language.

each to their own, if you like dub thats all good. but to say all voice actors that are japanese is a bit silly

Finished trigun (was kind of putting off the last 4 eps... They were kind of a struggle to get through?)

Him not killing anyone - > Aggrivating, hahaha. It was a good anime until the very last few episodes, It was like they decided to just cram the last few eps full of any unexplained back ground story?.. heh lol.

Now onto the 3rd episode of Code Geass. Hot damn.

Edit : You guys might be wondering why I update this thread every time I finish an anime, its because I'm hoping you guys will say "I just finished so and so and it was fucking awesome"

:3

Finished Code Geass season 1 (Is Geass the name of the power they get? I'm just wondering because of pronunciation? I thought it was called a Kioss :P)

I'm very surprised you didn't say "If you liked death note you'll like..."

So very similar heh. Nah it was good, I would say I'm not happy with the ending butttt I have a season 2 to watch. :P

Yeah start of S2 has made me happy. Answered all the cliff hangers.

Shit I hate them cliff hangers.

well would you look at that O_O

Shit. I re read this whole entire thread, Just to be sure no one said that.

Shows how much of a good reader I am.

But season 2 is great :D, I don't like it when the main character goes crazy, and It seems they're normalising him a bit more. Sure it can be interesting, But all feelings i've built up around the characters just contradict.

Wow. 10 out of 10.

Thank you for suggesting Code Geass. The ending was perfect, Something I don't think i've seen in any Anime yet.

## spoiler is me discussing ending.. ##

Spoiler :
You watch the series, as he deceives everyone with his plans, Hidden actions placed along the whole way.
But in the end, He shows his true form, as we too, along with every character in the anime, is deceived.

Sorry for sounding like a fag. But it was simply beautiful.

I really wish he could of lived 5 minutes longer, told everyone why everything happened. Why Euffie was accidently killed, What happened with Shirley, and what he really thought of Colin. Oh well. I'll never get to see that happen, as it would ruin the whole idea of the worlds hatred being all on him.

What has made this ending perfect the most, is the fact that I wasn't happy that he was a fucking loony bent mad on power. I see that he was sane, used his power for good overall... just wow. :)

The movie is just a re-hash of all the episodes but with a few changes I believe - If I remember rightly. Still bloody good though.

Eureka Seven holds a special place. It's one of those rare animes that gets under my skin and has me feeling depressed and displaced after watching it.

Ignore all previous writing here. It is just characters with different back stories pretty much.

Except now the Nirvash is actually a cute anime turned into the type zero some how.

The movies good. It's not as great as the series. Probably because its a movie. Def need to watch the series first.

Quite a few re used scenes (i'm not giving away any endings here, they're mostly used in different context)

Can't imagine the artist's being paid too well :P

One thing I got while watching "Constant Michael Jackson References"

Think i'll watch digimon season 1 again. That shit was awesome.

* also im currently acquiring Cowboy Bebop

Yeah but 8.6gb. Will give it a good go when data recap is closer

Found another which is 1.5gb + movie... First one was remastered so I guess that makes sense.

I just got cowboy bebop. But I can't watch it, because my brothers shown me HALF a series of another awesome anime.

Deadman Wonderland.

I'm just going to say its good, No problems so far. I think its one of those things, (like Cell by Stephen King), Where if you explained a single bit of it, You'd ruin any mystery involved. You guys are just going to have to try it out based on my opinion on so far, its very good.

Contains gore, Tiny bit of nudity, wimpy protagonist that becomes good when hemad.

Also, Cell, By Stephen King. Good zombie book. Read it
