As the title insinuates, which anime(s) have you seen recently?

Recently I've been watching Naruto and Full Metal Alchemist.

So what about you?

Ayumi · 10-05-2009, 05:54 PM

I must confess, I have been reading more Manga than anime watching, but I have seen a few episodes.
Kemono no Souja Erin 1-3
Bakemonogatari 1,2
Fruits Basket 7-10

I like it very much, and I find it pretty realistic.

Malandris · 10-07-2009, 09:23 PM

It was a good show. Only 11 eps, works out if you like shorter anime. Lot of realism went into making it, creating a sort of "what-if" story.

Fade To Black, I Call Your Name

Malandris · 10-08-2009, 12:48 PM

Yeah gonna buy strain tonight then get samurai 7 tomorrow. And eventually I need to finish gankutsuo

Naota · 10-08-2009, 01:03 PM

Recently none. I don't get into it much, if at all, anymore. The last anime I watched was probably either Noir or Abenobashi Mahou Shotengai a couple of years ago.

Ayumi · 10-08-2009, 03:16 PM

Both of those are excellent choices.
I used to be a action anime type but once I branched out I have seen many more interesting shows that way.
I used to avoid slice of life, romance anime like the plague, but now I can really appreciate them.
Nodame Cantabile, Honey & Clover, the Minami-ke series are all really good.
I still like shows like Bebop and Death Note though.

Watched Darker than Black 5 & 6 yesterday.

Malandris · 10-08-2009, 04:10 PM

watching "now and then here and there" right now

as you can tell i found the manga entertainment section of iTunes

Ayumi · 10-08-2009, 07:56 PM

Just about to start watching the Tegami Bachi Ova as I am interested in the series.

Kenshin · 10-08-2009, 11:17 PM

Recently:

Bleach
Naruto: Shippuden
Samurai X
801 T.T.S. Airbats

Sean · 10-09-2009, 12:17 AM

Today I started with the first episode of Seto no Hanayome. Suppose to be a comedy of sorts.

I enjoyed it.. had a few good laughs.

Ayumi · 10-09-2009, 12:29 AM

I heard it was very funny. What a cute Sig!

Pat Kong · 10-09-2009, 05:50 AM

Have been watching:

_Eve no Jikan / ((Time of Eve))
Seriously I think this is the best anime of 2008 and 2009.

_Genius Part Beyond
Studio 4degrees short movies. Where one of the five was really spectacular.

Ayumi · 10-11-2009, 04:36 PM

I need to check out Eve No Jikan, it seems to be hyped everywhere.
I just watched Tegami Batchi Light and Blue Night Fantasy, and Kemono no Souja Erin 4.

Malandris · 10-12-2009, 11:37 PM

Monster is on SyFy right now

Ayumi · 10-13-2009, 12:28 AM

I just saw that on ANN, but a movie is being taped on the DVR, so I get screwed. I have seen it before though and I have the first 12 episodes (DVD versions)

Malandris · 10-13-2009, 12:40 AM

no idea what it is about was yelling on vent at people during a raid.

Ayumi · 10-13-2009, 12:44 AM

Oh. Well I know if you saw it you would like it. The main character is a brilliant Neurosurgeon, but the anime is bascially about good versus evil, and explores how we can easily fall to the dark side of our own natures even when we are trying to fight evil.
The manga has won many awards and the anime mirrors it.

Malandris · 10-13-2009, 12:45 AM

I am the good side right?

Ayumi · 10-13-2009, 12:53 AM

Of course you are.

Quote:

The series follows Dr. Kenzo Tenma as he pursues a young psychopath/sociopath named Johan, whose life Tenma once saved.

He has to grapple with that decision that he made under duress, as others did not want him to save the child. He does the right thing and gets demoted for it - he loses everything. Then ten years later, the horror of Johan emerges- it is simply awesome.

Ayumi · 10-18-2009, 09:07 PM

I just watched the first episode of The Sacred Blacksmith- I will have to watch more before I form an opinion as the first episode, the heroine, bored me to death ^_^

shinji ikari · 10-19-2009, 08:59 AM

I'm tempted to watch Elfen Lied again, but every time I sit down I get bored and distracted >_>

Ayumi · 10-19-2009, 02:12 PM

I was going to watch it a few weeks ago but I ended up watching something else. It is always in the "Top ten most brutal/violent anime" lists. I just watched Solty Rei episode 7. and last Night Earl and Fairy episode 8 or 9 I don't remember ^_^

Ayumi · 10-22-2009, 05:57 PM

Ristorante Paradiso - 1-7 Excellent Slice of life, Romance series with realistic characters.
Shangri-la-1
Earl and Fairy-1-11
Darker than Black 2- 1 and let me say it was very, very good!

Ayumi · 11-03-2009, 01:52 PM

Finished Ristorante Paradiso and it was very good. Great characters and the fact that it was based around food was quite novel. Also the male leads are all older so it was nice to see people OTHER than HS kids grappling with life.
Also finished Earl and Fairy, and it was good, though as with alot of anime, the end felt rushed.
Kobato is very cute so far.

Pat Kong · 11-05-2009, 06:28 PM

Have you watched Eve no Jikan yet?

Ayumi · 11-06-2009, 02:17 PM

No, but I will add it to my "I have to watch " list wolfie- it's right up there with Millienium Actress.
Do you mean the OVA or the Movie or both?
