Just started watching Deadman Wonderland.

Last new anime I watched was Shigurui, and I'll probably be getting one tomorrow.

It's really good so far. I'm two episodes in. Typical crazy Japanese idea for a show. Shiro's mannerisms remind me of Ed from Cowboy Bebop.

Layla

^ Both good choices ^_^.

About to watch the finale of Gosick, but it is too hot for both me and my laptop.

malandris
07-05-2011, 06:11 PM
Phantom seems like it has 3 chapters in it, it's weird. The flow is kinda odd but not sure.

I'll probably check iTunes later to see if there is anything new.

I'm watching Wolf's Rain.

I dipped into some old stuff and watched a few episodes of Shoujo Kakumei Utena.

Well right now I am re watching Speedgrapher.

Layla
07-10-2011, 04:02 PM
I am trying to decide what to watch next as I just finished Arrietty.

Either re-watching some Minami-ke, or starting Usagi Drop.

I need Hellsing OVA 8! And I know I have to wait for the Berserk Movie, but I really want to see where the go with it.

Kenzou
07-10-2011, 04:17 PM
I think I finished Deadman Wonderland. Are there only 12 episodes? If there is that was an odd end-point.

Layla
07-10-2011, 04:31 PM
Yes it ends at 12, but there is an OVA. It was way too short considering how long the manga is, which I am glad I didn't read before watching the series.

Kenzou
07-10-2011, 04:40 PM
Are the 12 episodes and ova it then? No plans for more? Maybe I should tackle the manga.

Layla
07-10-2011, 04:46 PM
The OVA is bundled, like they constantly do nowadays, with the 11th volume of the Manga due out in October. The 26th I believe.
People have posted that the manga is sooo much better. The anime really had no time. It began, it introduced characters, showed some of the backstory then boom over, with no resolution. Hopefully the OVA clears some of it up.

Re-watching Minami ke ep 1.

malandris
07-20-2011, 01:58 AM
Is Deadman Wonderland out in the US?


I'm in the middle of watching Summer Wars.

Layla
07-20-2011, 03:47 AM
It is licensed by good old Funi, and I believe you can still watch it on Crunchyroll, but as it just ended you will have to wait a bit for the dvd release.

malandris
07-20-2011, 10:54 AM
Ah ok so i'll have to buy it in a few months.


BTW........Summer Wars, fucking amazing movie. Seriously amazing.

Just got High School of the Dead and probably getting Canaan as well.

Layla
07-26-2011, 08:05 PM
Summer Wars was great, but many people dissed it as it too closely resembled War Games. I still enjoyed it ;)

Good choice Sonic!

I should get around to watching ep. 2 of Usagi Drop soon.

Layla
08-02-2011, 02:22 AM
Just finished Hanasaku Iroha 16 and about to start Usagi Drop 4 (both very good shows for those who like a good slice of life with a little drama thrown in)

malandris
08-05-2011, 09:14 PM
High School of the Dead is an odd anime I will say. I somewhat don't get the premise sure it's zombies so i get that, but other parts i don't get.

Sonic

High School of the Dead is an odd anime I will say. I somewhat don't get the premise sure it's zombies so i get that, but other parts i don't get.

What's not to get? It is filled with some much over the top fan service, which for some actually detracted from the show, but for others was the major draw. And how many shows actually have the boob gun??? Personally, though I dislike when fan service detracts from the plot, I just had to laugh at the massive amount of it in the show, though sometimes it became annoying. Zombie action!!!! *cut to scene of massive mammary glands, that defy all logic as too gravity, time seems to freeze as we watch them bounce and sway* then wham! back to Zombie action! I would like to see them make it without the ridiculous T&A, as I was interested in the learning how to survive, banding together aspect of it.

Usagi Drop 4

malandris
08-06-2011, 08:30 AM
It was moreso the plan they had for zombies.


Who doesn't have their own plan already created for zombies. It seemed like they were chickens with their heads cut off at one point confused at what to do.


Basically whenever I see a Zombie series it seems like the characters in the show/movie don't know what zombies are. I find it hard to believe someone in their world didn't come up with a story about the dead walking around and eating brains.

Layla
08-08-2011, 01:44 AM
Well the men couldn't plan, because they had too much to distract them, and the women were too busy trying to angle their bodies, and clothing, in each scene for the maximum amount of panty-shots, cleavage exposures etc. and don't forget the bathtub scene! All of that was so exhausting, that they had no time to plan for the zombies who wanted to munch on, and consume, that exposed flesh.

But Saeko was kick-ass!!

Watching Canaan these days. Not bad show, only got through a couple episodes thusfar thou.

Hellsing Ultimate OVA 8------so Epic that words fail to convey how awesome it is!

A little heavy on the CG, but still EPIC

Hanasaku Iroha 20

Layla
08-20-2011, 05:08 PM
Just finished Redline and it is pretty damn epic! Sure the plot had some holes, but it is one awesome adrenaline ride!

Layla
08-27-2011, 01:21 PM
I watched the first 3 episodes in the latest marvel character brought to anime, Blade. It's not as bad as people were saying, but it isn't great either. His foes all go down too easily, and I am not sure how the comics were, but the vamps come in different animal forms, which is more common in Japanese lore.

Sonic
09-09-2011, 03:44 PM
Good choice Sonic!


ikr, I'm very picky about what I watch now especially anime but my good friend recommended this, so far I wasn't let down, the plot is just pained out mysteriously, it's not obvious in any way with story direction

Layla
09-10-2011, 06:22 PM
It can be somewhat confusing yes, and make sure you watch the specials after your done with the series. ^_^

Just finished Natsume Yuujinchou San 5 and I am pondering what to do next.

Tenchi Muyo Ryo-Ohki episode 16. I haven't watched the 3rd ova, and I do not like the character designs at all. They look similar, but there is way more silly expressions going on, almost super deformed mode.

Good for you! Murder Princess was fine, just too damn short.

I have a princess thing i guess

Layla

Hajime no Ippo 3
Memories-awesome movie
The Utena movie-big mistake to watch that without having seen the series.

Kenzou

I started watching Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood. I did not know this even existed. Much truer to the manga and better in my own opinion.

I'm currently watching Aquarion Evol. Highly recommend it. It's very different to the original 'Genesis of Aquarion' with a new cast. Every episode seems just to end with a cliffhanger, wanting to know more what it about to happen. Could someone please recommend some other animes, they think which might be similar and very good. Thanks

Layla

You can check out Macross Frontier, and Rinne no Lagrange to name 2 that are similar.

Layla is that a movie based on the first series or the brotherhood series?

Layla
03-24-2012, 06:53 PM
The Sacred Star of Milos is set during Brotherhood, but it has a far different story. I liked it but not nearly as much as the series itself.
