Darker Than Black OVA4 (Final)
The Final OVA was released and HOLY SHIT talk about epic, Hei was killing people left and right. but too bad these people had some ridiculous power, you can easily do a whole episode with any one of them. Overall a fantastic ending to these OVA's. Would have been a great setup if only Season 2 wasn't a major disappointment.

Thank you DrRuler, now off to marathon it

OK so there's two seasons/shows and 4 OVAs?
Keiyakusha, Gemini, and Gaiden, respectively? trying to make sure I have everything. And where do the OVAs go timeline wise or should I watch them nonchronologically?

**Elcura** · 2010-07-22 09:14

OVAs are between season 1 and 2. And I don't think it matters much, but I would watch them in the order they were released, that way the relatively mediocre season 2 is washed down by awesome OVAs.

**Qalbert** · 2010-07-22 09:36

ok, sounds good, and is season 2 only like 12 eps or something?

Just read this off of onemanga, sorry if it was posted already. This brought a tear to my eye....

"There is an end to everything, to good things as well."

It pains me to announce that this is the last week of manga reading on One Manga (!!). Manga publishers have recently changed their stance on manga scanlations and made it clear that they no longer approve of it. We have decided to abide by their wishes, and remove all manga content (regardless of licensing status) from the site. The removal of content will happen gradually (so you can at least finish some of the outstanding reading you have), but we expect all content to be gone by early next week (RIP OM July 2010).

So what next? We're not really sure at this point, but we have some ideas we would like to try out. Until then, the One Manga forums will remain active and we encourage all of you to continue using them. OMF has developed into a great community and it would be a shame to see that disappear.

You can also show us some love in this moment of sadness by 'liking' our brand new Facebook page. It would be nice to see just how many of you came to enjoy our 'better than peanut butter and jelly' invention.

Regardless of whether you stay with us or not, on behalf of the One Manga team, I would like to thank you all for your unwavering support over the years. Through the ups and downs you have stuck with us, and that is what kept us going.

As a certain Porky was fond of saying... That's all folks!

Time for me to go lay down and let this all sink in.

- Zabi

Some new announcement.

Edit
Shiki Ep3

This episode was very informative, we are getting more into the mystery of the deaths and even more character introductions.

-The Music Keeps being AMAZING, I must buy the soundtrack.
-The Sundako+Muroi scene was creepy thanks to the music and great visual used.
-The Final scene of the episode was great.
-The first half was weak(thanks to that annoying character) compared to the very good second half.

Ookami-San Ep4

Another fun episode, I love they took the cliche of saving a girl then being your personal maid right after and just ran with it. Otsuu back story was pretty sad, I didn't think her obsession was due her neighbors death.

My highlights
-Ringo's comment having a personal maid is every guy's dream (Otsuu=Mahoro *same voice actress*).
-Wirhelmina Carmel(Shana series) voice coming from Ookami-san.
-Ringo's just awesome She’s cute and angelic, but she’s also a demon. She can suddenly turn into a yandere and an S girl who won’t hesitate to make you lick her shoes if needed.
-Otsuu problem wasn't solved by the end and they lived happily ever after (Wait what?)
-The Narrator voice is just awesome I can't get enough of Kuroko's voice.
-The new character introduced were from Index series(except for one)*Gretel=Index and she is into incest lol*

"Anime, everything anime...looking like Goku, looking like Gohan, looking like Piccolo, looking like Death Note.....pikachu diamonds" LOL

Haha, soulja boy is awesome.

Just finished watching Nadesico and its movie. There's only one series and movie right, or did I miss something bridging the two? Thought it was ok.. but didn't like how the series was left open, and the movie jumped ahead without showing how like everything was resolved. The series was so light hearted too, and the movie took on a much more serious tone. Also felt the flow of the movie wasn't great. It seemed like the resolution happened in like five minutes after the building up. Needed more closure too >.>;

Best part of the whole series was definitely Ruri~

Everyone outside of Japan missed something bridging the two. There was a Sega Saturn game that covered the time between the end of the series and the movie. http://www.clabo.net/nadesico/blank3.html has a very rough summary of the events of the game. There's also a Dreamcast game that covers events that happen after the movie. I agree that the movie was a big let down from the series, just so different in tone and pacing the it created a lot of mood whiplash. I still enjoyed the show tremendously, and I still watch it about once a year or so.

Best part of the whole series was definitely Ruri~GAI DAIGOJI!

Railgun OVA fun at the beach.

I am more impressive with the book than the special ova included. A lot of fan art, character description and staff interview.

"...in that kitchen cooking up that Anime."

Anyways, I've been watching Abenobashi Mahou Shoutengai. I've only watched 4 episodes, but does it get better? I only find it decent so far. Only reason I started watching it is 'cause somebody said that it did the 'randomness' thing a lot better than FLCL, and so far I don't see it.
