Title: I'm... actually starting to like anime.
Post by: The Riddler on September 10, 2011, 10:12:16 AM
Thanks to Netflix, my eyes have been opened up to anime. Granted I haven't gotten into the most popular stuff yet (Bleach, etc), there were a few I've watched strictly out of curiosity and absolutely loved. The only problem is... I get into these shows... then am immensely disappointed with the fact that they've been canceled.

Air Gear is my current favorite. So sad that they stopped at 25 episodes. ;_;
I've watched Sekirei all the way through, Elfen Lied all the way through (good intercourse ing god this poop was depressing).
Oh! Edo Rocket is what I'm watching now. It's weird.
Also Girls! Bravo is intercourse ing hysterical intercourse  you.

POINT OF TOPIC:
What're some of your favorite animes and discuss the ones I've mentioned.

Note: I don't like reading mangas or watching subbed shows. In Sekirei's case, there are two seasons I haven't watched because they haven't been dubbed yet. In Air Gears case, there are over 300 chapters in manga, 170something English, and I refuse to read them. D:

First off, go sprinkle yourself generously with some holy water or something to get whatever demon is in you, out.

And then if after that you still like Anime, watch Death Note (even though the comic was always better) and Full Metal Alchemist. My favourites from way back in my dark days of enjoying anime.
That stuff doesn't sit right with me anymore, but those two were always my favourites. I'm intrigued by Brotherhood, but not enough to watch it.

I'm bored and haven't posted in a while so why not... And so I see you've joined the dark side, land of cookies and booze... and cookies.

Deadman Wonderland - It's gory, twisted, awesomeness [spoiler]
[/spoiler]

Black Lagoon - I think this is the only one where I can say that the dub is better. It fits better imo. [spoiler]
[/spoiler]

Hellsing - Yes, it's a vampire anime, but there's none of that glittery Twilight poop. It's the complete opposite. [spoiler]
[/spoiler]

Highschool of the Dead - A When-Zombies-Take-Over type anime... Lots of T&A but enough action in it to make it okay. [spoiler]
[/spoiler]

Higurashi no Naku Kori ni - Avoid the English Dub like the muthaeffin' PLAGUE! Also lots of gore/mystery/mindintercourse s here. [spoiler=Warning, lots of gore]
[/spoiler]

Umineko no Naku Koro ni - Similar to Higurashi with the mindintercourse s but it gets more... confusing... [spoiler]
[/spoiler]

Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood - Better than the 1st anime series, following closer to the original manga storyline. Not like the first one was bad though.

FLCL - It's a mindintercourse , but a good one. Short series too, there's only 6 episodes.

Cowboy Bebop - What can I say, about this one, it's frickin' amazing! [spoiler=This is why we keep the fridge clean]
[/spoiler]

Samurai Champloo - Action + badassed-ness [spoiler]
[/spoiler]

Kuropoopsuji - Black Butler is the English title, dubs are okay. It may seem girly, but the story's dark.

Ghost in the Shell - Haven't seen the movies, but the Series Stand Alone Complex and 2nd Gig are good along with its dub

Excel Saga - Do not watch in English unless you want to gouge your eardrums out with the nearest sharp object. xP [spoiler=Clip in Japanese]
[/spoiler]

You say you haven't gotten to Bleach/Naruto/the super mainstream stuff yet... please don't go near them. -_-;

Riddler, intercourse  what the hipsters say. There are reasons why Bleach, One Piece, Naruto, and Dragonball are all as popular as they are. Check them the intercourse  out, just be sure the be wary of which episodes are fillers and which aren't. The Dragonball fillers are pretty great though.

I didn't like One Piece because I just listened to the general attitude the hipsterfag anime community had until I saw this:



I saw this and just had to start watching. Enjoying the hell out of it so far. On Episode 57.
Also check out:

Soul Eater
Fairy Tail
Samurai Champloo
Samurai 7
Trigun
Big O
Case Closed
G Gundam
Yu Yu Hakusho
Fullmetal Alchemist/FMA Brotherhood(Both are intercourse ing sick)

That isn't completely true, lol. If you knew anything about Shippuden you'd know this. Either way, obnoxious characterization is standard in anime. It's japanese humor.

Dragon Ball Z is still the best.

Trigun was pretty sweet, but not as great as

Cowboy Bebop, which is the poop.  Seriously.  It's the poop.

FLCL was alright, but like Shorti said it's pretty short so it's not a huge investment if you don't like it.

The others on this list I never got into.  I never really liked the Gundams or Inyuyasha. 

Big O was alright though.  Kind of a Batman thing, but instead of Batman he has a giant gundam-esque robot.  And instead of Robin, he has a andriod.  Still has the butler, though.  On second thought, not too much like Batman at all.

Black Butler is good. I think someone mentioned earlier under its Japanese name... The show appeals mostly to girls, though. However, I've gotten Zero to watch a bit of it and he liked it.

I read the Soul Eater manga and began to watch a bit of the anime. It seems good so far. I've been told that after a while the plot of the anime deviates from the one in the manga, though. One of my friends told me flat out not to watch it because of that. Not that I'm listening.

Alsooo... I started watching Trinity Blood. And when I say started I mean I've only seen like the first two episodes so far so I can't say much about it yet. Only that I'm looking forward to seeing more.

So, that's what I've seen lately.

i don't understand how people watch anime

it takes too much time and you always have to pay attention to it

you can't just put it down like a book or some poop

Uh...there's this great thing called "pause". I'm sure you've heard of it.

also riddler you're watching anime unironically so you're lower on the faggot scale. in fact, you could start doing so poorly you'll downgrade to a n_gger.

There isn't anything wrong with not having a powerful need to multitask. You don't always have to do 2+ things at once.

not more than me, nigga

the localization of it was fanintercourse ingtastic, but it only lasted about a fourth of the series until it was cancelled.

the only good localization that I can think of outside of that is Yu Yu Hakusho, which apparently got cut down a bunch of episodes from the manga anyway.

but intercourse  it who cares

I watched the show religiously when I was younger, I always tried to figure out who did it before they reveal it. That show was the poop.

But I'm not a manga/subtitle guy, so I never followed the full series. D:

Anime can be annoying as piss but I don't mind reading manga.

God, I intercourse ing loved Detective Conan/Case Closed but I finally stopped reading it after a while just because it wasn't going anywhere and the formula was getting stale. 

Fullmetal Alchemist is also pretty great poop.

I will more often read manga than watch anime. Simply because I don't have that much free time and I can go through a series faster when I read it than when I watch it.

I looooove YYH. I was so sad when it ended. It felt like I was losing some friends.
That's okay, though, because I started reading Hunter X Hunter which is by the same mangaka. So I have new friends now. :3

I'm also reading Bleach, Ao no Exorcist, and Soul Eater. (And various shojo manga but I doubt many of you care about that.)

I'm bored and haven't posted in a while so why not... And so I see you've joined the dark side, land of cookies and booze... and cookies.

Deadman Wonderland - It's gory, twisted, awesomeness [spoiler]
[/spoiler]

Black Lagoon - I think this is the only one where I can say that the dub is better. It fits better imo. [spoiler]
[/spoiler]

Hellsing - Yes, it's a vampire anime, but there's none of that glittery Twilight poop. It's the complete opposite. [spoiler]
[/spoiler]

Highschool of the Dead - A When-Zombies-Take-Over type anime... Lots of T&A but enough action in it to make it okay. [spoiler]
[/spoiler]

Higurashi no Naku Kori ni - Avoid the English Dub like the muthaeffin' PLAGUE! Also lots of gore/mystery/mindintercourse s here. [spoiler=Warning, lots of gore]
[/spoiler]

Umineko no Naku Koro ni - Similar to Higurashi with the mindintercourse s but it gets more... confusing... [spoiler]
[/spoiler]

Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood - Better than the 1st anime series, following closer to the original manga storyline. Not like the first one was bad though.

FLCL - It's a mindintercourse , but a good one. Short series too, there's only 6 episodes.

Cowboy Bebop - What can I say, about this one, it's frickin' amazing! [spoiler=This is why we keep the fridge clean]
[/spoiler]

Samurai Champloo - Action + badassed-ness [spoiler]
[/spoiler]

Kuropoopsuji - Black Butler is the English title, dubs are okay. It may seem girly, but the story's dark.

Ghost in the Shell - Haven't seen the movies, but the Series Stand Alone Complex and 2nd Gig are good along with its dub

Excel Saga - Do not watch in English unless you want to gouge your eardrums out with the nearest sharp object. xP [spoiler=Clip in Japanese]
[/spoiler]

You say you haven't gotten to Bleach/Naruto/the super mainstream stuff yet... please don't go near them. -_-;

Most of those animes on your list are intercourse ing awesome (mostly because I have not seen the others).

Deadman Wonderland and H.O.T.D are intercourse ing for the win.

I might take you up on that, but I am always skeptical of dubs since they rarely have better voice actors than subs (Black Lagoon is an exception to that statement.)

I have found that Funimation typically does a good job at dubbing anime. There are some exceptions, of course, but for the most part I'm satisfied with their work. Yu Yu Hakusho happens to have three of my favorite voice actors in its main cast.

Not quite.

It's just that the fascination some people have with watching anime in a language that they don't even understand simply for the sake if it intrigues me, if anything.

That and the very same people can be irritating. If you aren't like this then you probably know people that are. OH NO NOT ENGRISH. ANYTHING BUT THAT. ENGRISH ISN'T KAWAIIIIIIIIIII

So I shouldn't try to learn any Japanese (and or insert any language that you watch in that is not English) and only listen to things in my language? I think I learn enough English from everything else around me thank you very much.

Subs aren't culture, they're language.  It'd be multilingual, I guess, if you were using the subs to learn Japanese.  Otherwise it just means you want to read and hear the original voices.

Exactly. If I land a lofty tech job and have to outsource to other countries, it would be good for business to learn THEIR language instead of forcing them to speak English. TV shows, cartoons, and animes are probably some of the funnest ways to learn a different language, imo.

Have any of you guys heard of the anime Mushi-shi? One of my friends introduced me to it and it's great. It's kind of like an anime version of The Twilight Zone in that it's a kind of sci-fi/fantasy/horror drama and there's no continuity between episodes (as far as I can tell); they're separate stories--although one character is in all of them and I think that there are some other recurring characters. It's worth checking out.
