Like I mention earlier, I believe Lelouch is still alive. I think everyone is looking too deep into it. It doesn't really matter if he is alive or not, unless Sunrise/writers will do a direct sequel from the 2nd season. Code Geass is not Code Geass if there is no Lelouch.

On a different not, I want a 3rd season, but not a prequel. Spin-off will be okay, but something similar to Fumoffu and Full Metal Panic would be fun.

Isn't there going to be an OVA based around C.C.? Maybe I'm just hearing things.
 
Don't understand Japanese but watched Gundam 00 season 2 ep 1 anyway...... fuck the series got bloody.
Terminator Exia for the win!

Maybe there is. I don't keep up with news on anime too much.

On a different note, there's a Tales of Abyss series? I just saw it when I browsing AnimeSuki.

The first episode of Abyss aired yesterday.
 
well after catching up to Bleach i see it's in filler currently, i just finished 168. main story is starting up again next week. skip all the filler or is it worth watching?

also how are the two bleach movies?
 
So, the Fall 2008 anime season is pretty buff'd out... What is everyone watching/following this season?!

For me...

- Gundam 00 S2
- Hokuto No Ken Raoh Gaiden series
- Linebarrels of Iron
- Rosario + Vampire S2
- Michiko to Hatchin
- Ga-Rei Zero
- Vampire Knight Guilty (S2)
- Kurozuka
- Casshern Sins
- Shikabane Hime
- Alive - Saishuu Shinka Teki Shounen


That's a lot for one fuckin' season!

Gundam 00!!

Jan though.... IPPO RETURNS!
 
I really wanna check out Shikabane Hime, but I gotta figure out who's doing it first. Can't watch it if someone isn't subbing it.

Batsu-Geimu is.
 
[quote name='SeanAmI']Do you have a site that shows what the different new shows are about?[/quote]

Google random curiosity. There's a post on there that goes over all the new shows for fall.
 
So I was checking out some of the manga selection that right stuf has on sale from tokyopop. Wanted to find out if any of these are any good:
Cowboy Bebop (either one , I heard the original was kinda boring , but I've never heard of Shooting Star before)
Escaflowne
GTO : The Early Years
Trinity Blood (I thought I remember reading that the manga was better than the anime)
 
The advice is appreciated , but it doesn't help regarding the ones I asked about.

I thought about mentioning Samurai Champloo and FLCL as well ck64 but I figured they would be in the same boat as Bebop. Good/Great Anime that make for mediocre/lousy manga.

Ok, fine. Those ones suck. Shoulda been able to infer that from my post, otherwise I would have recommended them.

Saying "these would be better" doesn't mean the others suck. I could say Final Fantasy is better than Star Ocean , but that doesn't mean Star Ocean sucks. No need to get upset. You could have just said those suck , these are better and could have saved us both the time.

I already said that I appreciated the recommendations , I'm always looking for something good to read/watch. I was just asking about those titles that's all. I figured they would probably be bad but I thought I might have been wrong.

I can't speak for GTO or Trinity Blood, but the Bebop and Escaflowne manga are pretty bad. Actually, the Escaflowne manga is downright AWFUL. Possibly the worst manga I've ever read, even.
 
I saw the first few episodes of Desert Punk. I got the DVD via the Desert Punk/Basilisk starter pack from Rightstuf (I think it is $5.99 now). Really funny show so far. I'm going to have to buy the rest one day.

You sure anime's your thing? Desert Punk is one of the worst shows I've ever had the displeasure of watching.

Yes.











While my opinion of Desert Punk could change, I clearly said I have only seen the first few episodes and that it was funny so far.

Still haven't had enough time to watch it, though.
 
Watched the first two episodes of Tales of the Abyss. I like the animation more in this than the Tales of Symphonia OVA. I think I'm going to keep watching since I never finished the game and wanted to at least know the story.
 
Just watched Hanbun no Tsuki ga Noboru Sora (or Looking up at the half-moon). It's short and sweet. I heard there was a live action version of this as well. I'll probably watch it.

I also watched the first 5 episodes of Gurren Lagann because people keep urging me to "OMG WATCH IT." It's okay so far.

Finally, my list. It's probably nothing compared to Guile's.
 
[quote name='coolsteel']Wow another person who bought the Armitage Dvd+Lunchbox , I thought I was alone in that shame[/quote]

:lol:

Nope, I got it during the Rightstuf blowout. $4 for a lunchbox and DVD can't be beat.
