Evil Genius

All things considered, I was pretty okay with this adaptation, to my surprise. I maintain that the first episode was really bad, and some others were quite sketchy (the one with the pagan ritual, and the anime original one). But the last 6 episodes or so were actually pretty good imo. Much better th...

For the most part, it's as bad as I expected it to be. Horrible CGI, tons of stuff skipped, cringe music trying to be badass, story is a mess trying to do everything at once and is apparently adding filler, Iwanaga is still trash as Guts. Having said that the second episode gave me a glimmer of hope...

I'm kind of in shock that it actually looks worse than the movie trilogy. Impressive. Here's to hoping that whatever format this is going to be, it's at least written better than the previous movies. The terrible CGI and such could become semi-permissible if they are able to do justice to the story,...

I fear that it will be more bad CGI movies from Studio 4°C, but we won't have to wait long to find out as the promo vi...

They started from the beginning. It goes a good bit faster than the 90s one though, so you are pretty much at the Yorksin arc before you know it.

Yeah, there is a currently airing TV series being handled by Madhouse. You may be happy to hear that it's being done very well too. At least one par with the 90s one, if not better.

Warlord of Mars, Miura version.

Great art, seems interesting. Phenomenal job EG. I mean that sincerely, EG is rivaled by few as far as HQ scans and translations go, almost a shame you are limited to Miura's dismal output.

Over the last ~12 years or so I've been following Berserk it's the same thing over and over If you were following Berserk for 12 years, you should know very well it hasn't been the same thing over and over. From 1990-2005, his productivity was more or less a steady two volumes a year. Since 2006 it...

Definitely excited for this. He should do stuff like this more often. Those other mini-series he has worked on seem to catch a bit of flak, but I thought they were pretty cool. Not as good as Berserk or even close, but worth reading for the art alone.

Picked this up from a con the other day. It's not an Art of War statue but it's pretty good quality nonetheless, I'm a bit impressed even. I think it's probably a Banpresto figure, but I'm not sure because it didn't come with the box. http://i.imgur.com/esoDS6m.jpg High Res: http://i.imgur.com/QUrZT...

Not officially. It's just all gloom and doom because he is on his longest hiatus ever, with no end in sight.

Fake.

Although, Berserk may as well be over, as I genuinely feel like Miura does not give a flying fuck about it anymore.

Stardust Crusaders is so good. One of the best manga I've ever read.

The next part is a big shift in tone. It's still great, but it's far less serious and the comedy and general strangeness is on full blast.

Been reading JoJo's Bizarre Adventure for the first time and really loving it. I'm up to part 5 (Vento Aureo). So far Stardust Crusaders has been my favorite part, but I have thoroughly enjoyed every part. It feels like it's been a decade since I've been meaning to get into this manga. Any JoJo fans?

I've read some interesting articles that have claimed that eating breakfast is not good for you, with evidence to support the claim. Obviously there is an abundance of studies out there that claim that it is good for you. When it comes to eating/diet, there is no "right" answer for a lot o...

I don't think I'd even call it a rumor, I'm pretty sure it's just a joke.

I think breakfast is a very important part of daily living. I usually just have bread or vegetables due to my morning being really busy, but I'd like to change that and get a more well rounded meal in the morning. It's come to this. Berserk releases are so sparse breakfast is a more viable discussion.

MOD NOTE: This is new information to me. I had no idea Miura had psychological issues and I’m sure alot of other fans weren’t aware either. It doesn't take very much exposure to Berserk to be able to conclude that the person coming up with this stuff clearly has some "issues". It would be...

No way, that would suck. Maybe he's busy helping with the films? I don't think so, Berserk has been being released at a painful snail's pace for years, well before these movies were in the works. Not that I'm telling you anything you don't know. The series is no longer what it was, hasn't been for ...

I think I've noticed before but god damn, lon3vvolf confirmed for never fuck with status.

Great pics.

Well... y'know...

The highlight of the film for me was the Skull Knight vs Zodd part. It felt really awesome to finally see that animated after all these years. Skull Knight looked pretty cool too, I guess only SK can transcend the limits of shitty CGI and look sweet no matter what. The part where he busts into the E...

That's interesting that you thought the second movie was the best, any particular reasoning there? I thought it was the weakest one myself. Although, I don't think any of them are very far apart from each other.

I watched it and wasn't really impressed... but it didn't flat out frustrate me like the previous two movies did. Some quick mostly spoiler free thoughts (no specifics mentioned). Negatives - Misplaced scenes making it feel kind of slopped together, frustrating omission of some scenes, CGI is just a...

I will say this was one of the best E3 events in awhile (completely demolishing last year's joke), but there wasn't really anything that got me excited.

This is great news. I'll spread the word, and perhaps I'll have to give the game another run myself.
