Fall 2011 Anime thread

[Deadgye]

Fate/Zero is so good I almost regret having started it. Marathoning through the whole thing in one go would have been amazing.

Far too much to list otherwise. Yes, it's all in HD on my network storage. I eat terabytes with my morning breakfast.

[warc]

you have..... pretty good taste. lol http://myanimelist.net/animelist/warc

c3 is pretty wtf, ben-to is getting better, fate/zero is awesome, working adorable, ika is not as good as s1 so far but I have hope, chihayafuru is eh, still waiting on last exile and haven't gotten around to UN-GO and Guilty Crown.

[Elcura]

If you watched Guilty Crown 1, this is WELL worth a read:

Excellent lol. The parts in the middle really were full of wtf.

Anyway, I'm watching basically the same as everyone else. P4, Guilty Crown, UN-Go, Working!!, Ika Musume, Hanagai and Kimi to Boku.

Maybe's include Ben-to (I just got that) and Gundam AGE.

No plan to watch last exile?




Anyway, I followed a friend's recommendation last night and watched Chihayafuru. If anyone is looking for a cute romance, coming of age or w/e, I thought it was excellent. Definitively one of my favorite this season so far.

Oh shit, totally forgot about Last Exile. Yeah, I'm watching that too.

Will check out Chihayafuru and the one Avve mentioned earlier too.

[Gulkeeva]

Yeah I need to watch it too, saw pics of a "interesting" scene... just need to drag it off my backup drive n watch it later O_o

[Gokulo]

I'm always all for "games" anime, coincidentally I've watched the first 2 episodes of it today too :D

The anime studio Brains Base will produce the project.

Is macross movie a sequel, or a pointless retelling of the story?

[Gokulo]

Weird retelling

[Zilong]

fuck, if brain base have the time and money to animate shit like kenichi, they ought to be making s2 for DRRR or Baccano

How do you guys download your anime or find out something is out? I used to use feeds that I made then started using MAL but I'm curious what others do, what's your workflow, is it automated at all or do you remember what comes out on what day?

Was linked to me recently, great site for figuring out when shit is coming out.

Also, is it worth watching Fate Zero (and I guess the movie) if you haven't played the games? I've only seen the anime (which I know is nothing compared), but I want to watch this if it's better than the FSN anime.

[Cantih]

Rinne no Lagrange PV

BINGO! There's the sci-fi stuff I was hoping to see.
Well, I wanted more of a, hmm, something like a cross between Planetes and Aria, but I'll take what they're giving.

Edit: to Magus

How do you guys download your anime or find out something is out?
...
or do you remember what comes out on what day?

As for discovery, I start with Ker/Nelson's charts.
For dates, the final versions of the charts usually have an airdate, and you can get the day of the week from that.
You can even get airtimes/dates nowadays from the http://www.fansubwiki.com/ (and also handily tells you what's licensed)

Though I personally get "who's fansubbing" info from MAL, because it shows who's subbing despite licenses (since US streams are generally the censored versions of shows, I have to skip them at times), it also lets me check comments/ratings on the subbers to see who to avoid, though sometimes you have to wade through griefers/politics.
From there, I go directly to each fansubber's site to grab torrent files. Or watch streams if it's warranted.

As to reminders, I'm an odd man out. I'm not the outlook/calender/etc kind of person.
Because of how I organize the info, I have a .txt file for US shows, and just added a small appendix at the bottom with the days of the week and anything I'm watching listed when they are.


Yes, I basically do everything manually. I'm fucking weird, but happy with it.

[Kaylia]

It's almost a crime to not complete these series

[Gulkeeva]

alot awesome stuff

Rinne no Lagrange lack of fanservice!? , looks good enough for me

also... Guilty crown ep2 preview...catgirl is hawt, especially what she did in that preview (´￢`)

Somewhere between ker's posts and preview pics and tokyotosho popular tags is where I keep up with new anime/download new anime I may find interesting. Ker posting preview pics/videos of upcoming/current anime though helps alot on deciding what to get for me, seeing is believing ...! (more so then words)

[Rivero]

I usually just check Nyaatorrents every now and then. Cool thing about anime for me is I can never remember when they are released; only anime I remember is One Piece. So I just tend to watch them whenever I can and it's usually a cool surprise.

I check chartfags or whatever it is after the season starts and try to make note of the things with pretty pictures, studios I like, or interesting synapses. Then I use anidb to see which groups are doing each anime, and after I pick my group I just download directly from their site or from nyaa or something. If I can't decide between a few sub groups I'll use ji-hi to compare them.

It probably helps that I'm usually a season behind due to me preferring to marathon stuff. If I'm gracing stuff with my presence weekly, I just remember what day the subgroup I'm using usually gets it out by and check that day or the day after.
