I like girls who are bad ass.... Ergo Anime (Thread)

[quote name='karsh']Call me crazy, but I'm finally catching up in Bleach (I hadn't watched any of the filler prior to a few days ago), but I find myself rather liking the Bountou arc. They seem like an interesting enough group of villains for a filler arc. The only thing I'm not sure I like is all the stuff that has happened that messes with the next arc, like Rukia showing up and everybody finding out Ishida is no longer a Quincy. I'm not even sure they know that in the manga yet.[/quote]
The bounts were alright for a bit, but the last two episodes or so have been awful.
 
[quote name='jmcc']Yeah, they know he lost his powers.
They don't know he got them back yet, though. To be fair, neither does he, yet, as he got knocked out pretty good by Pa. But when he comes to, oh boy will it be beatdown time.
[/quote]

Okay...I sorta remembered them finding out in the manga, but couldn't completely remember. Still, the changing of order things going on in the filler is kinda annoying.

I don't know what you're talking about. 78 wasn't the best, but it was a sorta necessary step in this arc. And 79 was one of my favorite episodes of this arc so far. I just wish there had been a bit more to Yoshino vs Jin.
 
It seems a rouge AonE employee decided to delete shit off their FTP after being fired, so any chance of getting newer stuff from them is gone for now. :whistle2:( Why the hell do people have to pull these stupid stunts?

No big. ;) I'm just excited & cravin' like a crack fiend for another episode. :bouncy:
 
Downloading Haruhi 7. This one isn't supposed to continue off of ep 6 right?
Pretty sure after the ending it said it wasn't going to follow it, not sure though.

You're correct, sir.

[quote name='GuilewasNK']Daft Punk is awesome, and I usually don't like that type of music.

Speaking of Daft Punk (and their relation to anime), I really want to buy Interstella 5555.[/QUOTE]

[quote name='GuilewasNK']Has anyone read and Korean Manwha (manga)?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manhwa

I just stumbled onto the subject yesterday and today I saw Moon Boy at Waldenbooks. It looks pretty cool and the books are in the same left-to-right format as American books.

http://www.icekunion.com/ice/previews/moon_01.html (Moon Boy Samples. The story actually starts on preview page 12 in the drop-down box)[/quote]

A few. The ones I remember off the top of my head:

Ragnarok (based on the Korean RPG Ragnarok Online)
King of the Dead

Cool. I'm really getting into comics of all kinds again (including American).

I am trying to look for as many new experiences as I can afford.

[quote name='jaykrue']Good luck. At $10 a pop for each manga/manwha, I've decided to cut back and just read them whenever I'm at B&N.:lol:[/quote]

What I plan on doing is waiting for the buy 3 get 1 free deals that Waldenbooks has on Manga from time to time. That's when I do most of my manga shopping unless Rightstuf has a sale going on.

Now, what would this anime be called?
 
[quote name='Blade']Now, what would this anime be called?[/quote]

That would be Kashimashi Girl Meets Girl. It's about this guy that gets hit by a runaway alien spaceship (yes, a runaway alien spaceship) while he's out picking flowers (he's a bit on the flamboyantly gay but still straight side). The aliens feel bad about killing him so they resurrect him... only they're not that good with human physiology so they turn him into a girl. So he starts to live his life as a girl and lo and behold, all the girls that liked him as a boy also like him as a girl and start to question their own sexuality. Hijinks ensue. And no, I'm not kidding about that synopsis.

I've heard of it before too, but evertyime I see a synopsis for it I always think it sounds like it is a pitch for a new, real cheesy sitcom on the WB or something... That clip just made it seem even cheesier too.

The story is weird. It tries to be shounen-ai for the shoujo set. I suppose with the gender-bending, confusion is about the only thing you can expect. Even still, the story is quite bland. You'd think it'd be quite interesting but it's like soda that's been left out of the bottle for 2 days - flat. The main guy (or girl depending on your view) is this ultra-demure fem-guy. Upon first sight, you'd think he was already a girl. Then the girls who like him are rightly confused yet the story goes nowhere. I gave up after 5 episodes.
 
I watched Kashimashi all the way through and was impressed with the story. There are a few typical comedic moments with Hazumu still getting used to being a girl, but it's the love triangle that was interesting to me. It really picks up steam in the last few episodes as things really get intense and I thought the payoff was worth it.
 
just read Naruto 307

poor sasuke, does he really think he can/will kill naruto with Sakura, Sai, and Yamato there, I think he really just wanted to give Naruto a hug while keeping his tough outer shell

This album, track 3:

The verses for this particular media file:

Things that bother you,
Never bother me
I feel happy and fine! HAHA!
Living in the sunlight,
Loving in the moonlight
Having a wonderful time!

Haven't got a lot,
I don't need a lot
Coffee's only a dime.
Living in the sunlight,
Loving in the moonlight,
Having a wonderful time!

Here's hoping the new OP pulls a "Hikari E" and reveals a new crew member, I'm sick of this whole Paulie vs Franky ordeal >_>[/QUOTE]
It doesn't. However
Gear 2 Luffy hitting Blueno and the resulting blood cloud is pretty awesome.
edit: the raw is out now, btw.

Also, this struck me as humorous: http://img197.imageshack.us/my.php?image=11482389848577zx.gif I do like a good parody.

It was also in an episode of Spongebob Squarepants.

Does anyone have a couple of good links to resources that go over the best, most critically acclaimed, or most artistic animes?

I've been going and buying mostly seasons, movies or complete collections of older animes, and I'd like to find out about some of the older stuff that may have slipped through the cracks.
 
http://anime-otakus.org/

Anime-Otakus has officially dropped Prince of Tennis as it has been licensed by Viz. It is set to air online at Toonami Jetstream on July 17th. Anime-Otakus' longstanding policy has been to drop any series once it has been licensed. We wish to thank everyone who has supported us throughout all these years.

Nooooo! I was so close to getting it all downloaded before then. :whistle2:(
 
I'm surprised no one's posted about this yet, but Haruhi 8 is out now! It was a damn good episode. Though one thing about the preview has me wondering...I heard it was only slated for 13 episodes...Yet Haruhi says the next episode is 14 in the preview. Which makes me wonder if they decided to do a full season with all of the popularity Haruhi seems to be gaining.
 
here is the naturo anime schedule

Jpn. 06/14/06 Episode 189: “Underground Water, Inexhaustible Supply of Ningu”
Jpn. 06/21/06 Episode 190: “Insight of the Byakugan! Magnetic User Blind Spot”
Jpn. 06/28/06 Episode 191: “Sentence of Death ‘Cloudy and Sometimes Clear’”

I really think they are just waiting till 200 to start it up again
 
I could've sworn I saw atleast a glance of a little caption at the top during episode 80 of Bleach saying there would be no episode this week and a two episode special next week.. Guess I was wrong.

Question: Just now getting back into Bleach after taking a break. I notice that Lunar has stopped.

The most popular alternative appears to be DB, with Bleach Society behind them.

I was just looking for a recommendation for who to go with now, since I like to be as consistent as possible.

Dattebayo. They're much, much faster. Eps are subbed within a day of the raw 99% of the time. Also, in my opinion the quality is better than Bleach Societies.
 
Naruto 308 is out

they have made sasuke toooooooo rediculous, with his EMP Chidori and chidori sword. Plus he took out Yamato so easily and somehow he enters Naruto's Kyubi v Naruto inner conflict. I know they wanted to set him up as bad ass and everything but this seems a lil much
