Guess the Anime

The latest and greatest of Japanese Animation. Found something new, or perhaps old and arcane... if it has to do with anime, it goes right here.

Time's up!

It was the infamous "Super Dimension Fortress Macross: Genesis Climber Mospeada".
I'm surprised no one got it, given how many Macross fans lurk this place.

Next one:

Come on guys, that was a classic! It was Lupin III, the father of all seinen anime!

Anyway, here comes the next one:

This is downright depressing.
I guess there is a reason most cultures consider necromancy a taboo and thus rarely indulge in it.
What lies in death should stay that way. My own creation, this undead monstrosity few would still dare call a thread confirms it.
Sorry Nature, I owe you one.





Oh, and by the way, it was TOKKO.

It kind of looks like Saint Seiya, but I don't recognize it so it must be something else. Looks strangely familiar though.

I just cheated.
I checked the guy's entire career on wikipedia.
The saddest part?
I still have no idea what anime that picture is from.
Still, I'll guess the shit out of it.

Ok, so guess nº1:

Mazinger Z

PS: Fuck nature!

THIS.
IS.
SCIENCE!

This shot hails from The Rose of Versailles, in which the Japanese VA for Zodd happens to be the father, although this was way before that, and he doesn't have much of a role... It's not that great of an anime, just somewhere around that medium delicious level.

C'mon, science is just part of nature.

Pfff...ignorance!
Science may be nothing more than a method. You know, an induction followed by a falsifiable hypothesis, which is then empirically tested.
Bacon, Popper and all that crap.
Fairly boring, in my opinion.

SCIENCE! is nothing like that. SCIENCE! is awesomeness. SCIENCE! is insanity. SCIENCE! is an aberration, a twisted mutation that mocks the very foundations of illustrated positivism.
And SCIENCE! advocates everything that should not be. Or could not be. Or just would't have been conceived were it not for the bizarre combination of drugs and psychiatric disorders that SCIENCE! practitioners usually indulge in.

aaaaaaanyway, my turn:

Hmmm... I'm gonna guess that it's from:







Hmm, this must be part of your SCIENCE!

Anyways, if science is part of nature and is boring, then SCIENCE! is part of NATURE! and both are extremely entertaining. NATURE! is the almighty category which contains all things not possible in the imagination. Wtf does that mean. Well, I don't know, but I know that BLAME! fits in there somewhere...

In the meantime, I'll post another one. Should be pretty easy for anyone who's even remotely familiar with the show.

I doubt this will help any, but you never know. So here's a couple of hints.

1.) It's made by the creator of Rurouni Kenshin.
2.) Alchemy is some-what involved.

Pfff....that's easy: Busou Renkin
Best antagonist ever. His aesthetic tastes were so delightfully bizarre and he pursued them with so much dedication I just couldn't help but end up sharing them.
Which led me to this:

Still can't upload screen shots (for some reason, they all look black), so please bear with me as I insult all of you by posting this monstrosity: Fanart from a lame anime series

Please, feel free to kill a cat (or a dog, if your tastes go in that direction) when you burst in outrage.
