Fall 2011 Anime thread

[Man0warr]

I don't think it's an anime announcement for FMP, looks like a spinoff by another author or something.

[Gulkeeva]

Needs to be, was a great action/comedy anime back in the day! Especially Full metal Panic Fumoffu (like the disease outbreak episode)

[Man0warr]

KyoAni producer said a couple years ago they were waiting for the novels to finish before they figure out if they will do more anime. Generally though it's not the studio's decision, usually the novel publisher or record producers fund them because they are a tie in to sell more novel/manga/music/toys.

That was years ago though, so who knows.

[Zilong]

fumoffu was great, but holy shit second raid was so goddamn angsty i felt like cutting myself halfway through it

[Elcura]

TSR had some good moments, then half way through it got kinda weird. Fumoffu is easily one of the funniest things I've ever watched. Holy shit, I will never get tired of watching those episodes.

[Pharaun]

The Rugby episode of Fumoffu is quite possibly the greatest comedy episode that I have ever seen, I still crack up just thinking about it.

Also while TSR was very angsty it made sense for Sosuke. Being around Kaname and in normal situations at school he was starting to change from an emotionless war machine into something almost human at the end of the first season. TSR was just an extension of his growth and him learning how to deal with all the shit in his life instead of just bottling it up and ignoring it. Watching him flip out on Gauron was probably one of the most satisfying things that I have seen him do. That being said it still makes the middle part of the series annoying since he goes full emo for several episodes before getting his shit together.

This was also fairly humorous.

[Elcura]

This was also fairly humorous.

I love this scene. Can't find it on youtube, but the episode where they go outside for an art lesson had me rolling. Shit was so good.

Beach episode was great too.

[Radec]

Art lesson is part1

[Souj]

So the new Rurouni Kenshin anime is just a 2 part OVA? I assume roughly 90minutes since it's airing in theaters.
I'm confused because the article also calls it a "series".

[Silenka]

There is supposedly a live-action Ruroken movie coming out as well, maybe that's what you mean? I too was under the impression that the animation was going to be an actual TV series.

no, the article linked on the last page said 2 part theatrical OVA

Make Ano Natsu de Matteru Anime
http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news...matteiru-anime

The October issue of Gakken's Megami Magazine is announcing on Tuesday that Onegai Teacher/Onegai Twins story creator Yousuke Kuroda and Onegai franchise character designer Taraku Uon are collaborating on a new original anime called Ano Natsu de Matteru. The anime will be an adolescent romantic comedy.

The three main characters are the two girls Ichika Takatsuki and Remon Yamano, and the boy Kaito Kirishima.

[Elcura]

GDI, when is this fucking anime coming out?!

[Zilong]

in about 6 weeks?

[Silenka]

no, the article linked on the last page said 2 part theatrical OVA

Wow I totally missed that. They probably meant it was previously called a series but is now a couple of movie-length OAVs. Man, that blows, I was hoping for a full-on TV adaptation of the manga like Brotherhood was for FMA. Alas, the Jinchuu arc still gets no love...

You can't do the Kyoto arc as well as it was done in the original series in 180 minutes. Not even if they did manage to dig up the entire original cast... It was too involved, there were too many characters and anyway the Kyoto arc was the best fucking part of Kenshin TV, why not do an adaptation of one of the other parts of the series that was done poorly or not at all?
