So you like anime, huh? Whatcha watchin' right now?
« on: January 04, 2008, 10:36:04 PM »
First of all, mods: If this rather belongs in Sacchin Toast, allow me to apologize and request that this thread be moved there. :)

Now, to the point of this thread. :P

Yeah, so you like to watch anime, huh. Actually, there's no way in this reality a bunch of guys who fap themselves to playing a doujin fighting game like us wouldn't like anime, but that's beside the point.

So I decided to make this thread to create a central hub in which to discuss whatever anime series you're currently watching, and hand out opinions on what other people are watching. I myself have watched quite my share of it, listed here. Currently, I'm on to episode 8 of Soul Link, and though it hasn't really been the crème de la crème, it's at least been enjoyable so far. Though, maniac as I am with kissing scenes in anime, I was kinda pissed when they blew the only scene so far perfect for a kiss and didn't show it onscreen (same thing happened when I watched Fate/stay night, with Rin kissing Shirou and later Shirou kissing Saber). >_> Oh well.

In any case, for the time being, whatcha watchin'? :)

damn i can't even think of all the anime i've see, but i didn't pick up a new one that looks good today. H2O footprints in the sand, its based off a game. i think its goign to be 12 eps so it better not end like the others i just finished ended... >:( that means myself:yourself...Goshuushou-sama Ninomiya-kun... LovCom, all of those ending could've been alot better. myself:yourself should've been longer IMO cuase those last 2 eps got rushed to death. i hope they'll be OVAs for Goshuushou-sama Ninomiya-kun. if your looking for a cute/funny anime go watch Seto no Hanayome, its ended last summer. well enough of that i'll just try to make up a list too.

Just finished Haruhi. The ending episode was better than the whole anime IMO.

Before that was "Higurashi no Naku Koro ni". Holy fucking shit. That series was FUCKED UP. And totally awesome. It made #2 on my top 5 all-time anime. Proceeded only by Ghost in the Shell.

And prior to that was Ergo Proxy. That anime... it lacked action. I know it was extremely philosophical, but there are ways to do that while packing in some explosions and gunfights that keep my attention. It was like a half-hour philosophy class every time I sat down to watch an episode. It was good, but in no way my favorite.

On my list to watch currently:
Mai-HiME
Mai-Otome (aka Mai-Z-HiME)
Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai
Fate/Stay Night

Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai is so close to being finished that I'm not going to bother starting anything till I'm done with it. Any suggestions on what to watch after though?

I totally rep Inuyasha and Naruto. Best series ever! I'm totally cosplaying as Miroku next con!

Umm, just wondering...

Is Melty Blood like based on an anime or something? The story would be really cool if they ever decided to make one!

Melty Blood was based on the original story of Tsukihime.

Higurashi no Naku Koro ni Kai is so close to being finished that I'm not going to bother starting anything till I'm done with it. Any suggestions on what to watch after though?

you said you haven't watched fate stay night. that was really good. mushishi is a must watch if you haven't seen it. full metal panic is awesome(especially the fumofu series).  Sayonara zetsubo sensei is one of my favorites. Nodame Cantabile is really great.

Also, here are some that i thought were great or really interesting but have less of a widespread agreement about there greatness.  Aria(not action. more of a peaceful days thing but very original. no school life thanks)  Black lagoon(definitely action but pretty original). Record of Lodoss War(true oldschool greatness. knights and stuff.)  Sunabozu( what can i say, never been done before. both awesome and suprising. farily heavy on the action). Zipang(oldschool omg. who the hell wrote this. its awesome. not in my top 10 though).  Code geass( probably not for everyone, fair bit of action. i liked the concept).  Junni kokki(about 50 eps. really good. only problem is the first 15 or so are kinda average and it has to much emo.)  Ghost hound(Started this season. 10 eps out and its pretty nice. bit of a slow start though, supposedly by the person responsible for ghost in the shell) The third( not fore everyone , i liked it though. watch with caution i suppose.)  Star Ocean Ex( and excellent anime based on the epic star ocean 2nd story for the ps1. in some ways its better then the source material. has its issues though.)  Well, thats all for now. i may post some more if you want them.

Anything scarringly tragic.  I'd say Grave of the Fireflies would be the height of that.

Full metal panic is really good. How about you try Azumanga or Pani Poni Dash(creator is same with Sayonara Zetsubou). Code Geass is pretty good too.

Higurashi is really epic. :slowpoke:

EL was... decent.  I need to catch up on the manga, but the anime ending left me a little too uninterested to continue.

Actually, I'm watching Lucky Star (finally!), after that I'm moving to Kanon and Tsukuyomi -MOON PHASE-.
I really enjoy epic and manly stuff, like GGG, but I tend to be a sucker for tragic dramas, like Elfen Lied, Kannazuki no Miko, or X.

Actually, Elfen Lied was the third series I watched, and after I watched it, I completely broke down for around 3 weeks/a month. Luckily, I got over it, but I'm still a sucker for tragedies.

I usually just roll with the season, but since a new anime season is just starting I'll pretty download anything at this point and pick out the keepers and stick with them. At this point I've only seen H20 and it rocked my soul.

Last season I watched:
- CLANNAD (and will continue watching it since it's carrying over)
- EF (SHAFT did a good job making this, my candidate for anime of the year)
- HiguKai (I liked the Higurashi first season)
- Myself;Yourself (typical drama)
- Sketchbook (good slice-of-life to kick back and watch)
- Zetsubou-sensei (downloaded any sub of it because no one was releasing it on a solid timeline)
- Shion no Ou (Anime about shogi that I got to ep.9 before realizing that i never understood shogi and dropped it)

I'm currently watching Higurashi no Naku Kokoro Ni Kai (the second season of Higurashi) since it just finished, and I will be starting up Shakugan no Shana Second soonish.

Higurashi is fuckin crazy.
