Anime Thread. [Prob not 56k safe]

Was it just me.. or did the end of Star Driver seem.. I dunno.. odd? What with the panting and 'deep' breathing? Haha. Oh lord.. that was so awkward. Fight was win though. Animation continues to astound me.

Yeah the fighting was pretty good that episode, the breathing part was like.. wtf is goin on here

[Zilong]

I mentioned this on the last page, the whole mecha fighting was a symbolism for homosexual intercourse.

And while we are at it, can anyone recommend series with characters that behave more like real human, and less like mindless drone? I'm talking about stuff like Tokyo Magnitude, Monster, or even death note. Series like last exile and Xam'd work for me as well.

Honey & Clover
Eden of the East
Time of Eve
Mushishi
Nitaboh (movie)
Eureka 7
Nodame Cantabile
The Glass Mask (drama or 2005 anime)
Anything written by Junichi Sato except Pretear (Kaleido Star, Princess Tutu, Tamayura)
Aria

Orenoimo this week was kind of weird. Feels like we haven't had progress in awhile. It's almost the same every episode now, Kirino fails and Kyousuke solves the problem, Kirino acts like he didn't do anything with a tiny hint of acknowledgement. Kuroneko's expression at the end to Kyousuke's response to defending his sister was a bit odd. Oh well, like 4 more episodes or something, they better get on their shit and make this end well..

At first, the pacing accommodates the possibilities of going up to volume 5, in which Kuroneko's character would be fleshed out.

But, if they're going for anime original material on the next episode like what they've been talking about, it may not go that far...

Kinda ironic going on original arc right after an episode specifically bitching about anime company making up their own shit.

[Kaylia]

Did you watch Natsume? Probably did...

yeah, was gonna recommend natsume yuujinchou and mushishi

Never did, gonna check them out.

Started rewatch of LE yesterday actually :D so fucking good.

It is. They seriously need to make more anime like this.

Honey & Clover
Eden of the East
Time of Eve
Mushishi
Nitaboh (movie)
Eureka 7
Nodame Cantabile
The Glass Mask (drama or 2005 anime)
Anything written by Junichi Sato except Pretear (Kaleido Star, Princess Tutu, Tamayura)
Aria

Time of Eve was great...I'm still waiting for the sequel that was hinted at the end of the "movie".

I loved everything on that list except the one I havent obviously (eureka 7, mushishi and the 3 animes by junichi sato). Eureka 7 was already on my list, so i added the other.

I'm surprised nobody mentioned Haruhi for Tsundere. Real from Ergo Proxy is very well written and may qualify as a tsundere.

As for this:

I will never stop recommending Bokurano. The Characters are what make this anime.

Eri Takenashi's Take Moon Type-Moon Anthologies Get Anime
http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news...gies-get-anime

The January issue of Ichijinsha's Monthly Comic Rex magazine is announcing on Saturday that an anime adaptation of Take Moon, Eri Takenashi's anthologies of Type-Moon manga short stories, has been launched. Seiji Kishi (Angel Beats!, My Bride is a Mermaid) is directing this anime of the Type-Moon stories from the creator of Kannagi.

[Gokulo]

Naaaajsu :>

[Dantrag]

That Saber scares me.... she looks WAY too happy.

[Insanecyclone]

[Zilong]

That fucking explains the lack of Kannagi chapter as of late.

I'd rather have that than another type moon bullshit, I mean I like their shit to a degree, but now it's just overly saturated.

[Maguspk]

Is that Raging Blast thing for real? It sounds like a game why would there be a full movie for it?

[Insanecyclone]

Raging Blast 2 came with a remake of a 1990 vhs JP-only dbz movie.

The World God Only Knows Ep8 Hot damn

Spoiler: show

^

[Zilong]

Yeah, Keima's mom definitely has it going on

[Xno Kappa]

You know it's funny, after all the countless battles Goku and Gohan have been through, you'd think they'd eventually snap and tell Chichi to shut the fuck up and be grateful.

[BerenTebogo]

Is the Tales of the Abyss anime like the ToV movie where it is a prequel or otherwise different story from the game or is it just an anime walking you through everything that happens in the game?

[Zilong]

the latter, Luke is fucking unbearably annoying though

[BerenTebogo]

Haven't played ToA, loved ToV, have downloaded ToA batch. Watch ToA or play ToA?

[Caiyuo]

I was wondering, are all the seasons of Dragonball paced the same way the original airing of DBZ was? Kai got me wanting to watch the later versions of the show since I never saw anything past DBZ and I was curious as to how potentially awful GT would be to watch now that I'm used to seeing shit actually move along quickly.
