I saw Major 79-80 last night, season 4 is fricking amazing so far.


I loved how they dealt with the engrish

After watching Devil May Cry (which was very nice for a game inspired anime), I've started Bleach yesterday, which rocks. Exactly the right mix between action and comedy that I like. Plus there seems to be a nice background story too.

Wow, you really must have low standards.
I mean what kind of story did you make out of the anime?
The fighting scenes were crap, everything was crap about the whole series.
The only thing that was somewhat hilarious was that Dante liked to drink milkshakes (or whatever they are called) and eat pizza.
Sure, I cant recall seeing another anime that was based upon a game so dont have anything to compare it to, there is Blue dragon but since the game was pure crap I didnt want to see it.

Edit: Just remembered that there is Raganrok, isnt that based on a game? That was way better then Devil may cry

I certainly do not have low standards when it comes to anime. But usually moves/series out of games are utterly crap. DMC wasn't high standard by any definition, but it certainly was a nice watch. I've seen so much worse anime. Although I definately have to say I wouldn't have watched it if it wasn't for the game. And while in the game Dante is a unfunny-one-line character, he was really likeable in the anime.

And I guess that you could say Pokemon, Digimon, Yu-Gi-Oh, BeDaMan and all that crappy series are based on a game (although only video games in the first 2 examples) and are all completely horrible animes.

Havent seen it, didnt know it was based on a game either so cant really say if its better then DMC or on the same level

Oh I forgot about pokemon and Digimon, well DMC was atleast better looking then those two

[Libaax]

Gungrave is the best maffia action themed anime. It was awesome.

DMC anime was digusting,looked like some lame hentai. It was written like that too.....

[Grahf]

I just finished watching the clannad movie. As a watcher of the anime series as well I must say I almost broke done crying a few times. It was good though a bit lacking the comedy of series.though I never finished watching air. I think its ten times better than said series. I'm sure u all will run to watch the romance anime now.

Edit: DMC was absolutely horrendous. The fights sucked. That's all I really watched for too.

[Aetherfukz]

Yeah the fights really sucked. But the huge fight sequences I already got to see in the games, I watched the anime to see more of Dante's person / backstory (which was only hinted at though )

[Shaka Zulu]

Gungrave anime was beyond awesome. Highly recommended to anyone who likes mafia drama/hitman shooter style anime. Really compelling series.

Couldnt stomach the DMC anime, so bad in all levels.

[Starnum]

Hey, did you guys know there's a new Persona anime out? Yeah, it's called Persona: Trinity Soul, and it's like a sequel to the game Persona 3. So if there are any Persona fans out there, I definitely recommend it. Hell, check it out even if you don't know about Persona, it's pretty cool.

[Aetherfukz]

Damn, that reminds me, I need to get my hands on that game

[Tonbo]

The only thing that was somewhat hilarious was that Dante liked to drink milkshakes (or whatever they are called) and eat pizza.

I craved strawberry sundaes for a while after watching DMC. Also, what's up with the dancing hate in your sig?

Not an anime but soooo funny.... currently watching Flight of the Conchords. Awesome.

I gave up on Bleach. The only anime I'm keeping up with is Naruto. I hope Sasuke kicks his ass.

Sundaes, thats it
Well the quote Im using is of ironic reasons, I love to dance. Most people do, so he was way wrong back in the days.
Either that or everyone is insane

Im thinking of giving Bleach a rest too, the progess is at an all time low. Almost 7-8 minutes per episode.
Everything else is either recaps or of someone goofing of.
Naruto is somewhat heading the same way, hope it doesnt get lost in filler land once more

[Libaax]

It shows how genius Cicero was, im a very sane man and i dont dance ever


Hey Major 85 has been out for days !

Haha, no you got the wrong idea here. Your one in a million

Have seen Major and as always its awesome

[Malvado]

Just finished Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei and Shigurui before that because of a recommendation here.

[Tempz]

I recently finished DBZ and Battle Programmer Shirase. BPS was pretty good, anyone else seen it?

Took a break from Bleach and Naruto. Ghost Hound is on hold I guess.

I've never really seen all of Afro Samurai so I'm watching that and after this I'll probably go with Seirei no Moribito or Code Geass.

[Facade19]

For a good year now I have not been watching much anime.
I think after an extensive year of reading non-stop I need a break from literature and political science/political philosophy.
The only two shows that I have watched attentively for the year were Bleach and Blood+ (Adult Swim for the US viewer).
Though I have a few anime box sets, they have not been touched for a year now. Time to visit them finally (Gilgamesh, Boogie Pop Phantom, Samurai 7, Gun Burst Angels). In addition I am going to buy the SpeedGrapher box set tomorrow.
Furthermore Code Geass Season 2 is airing soon. I think I will add one more show and that will be it. I will hate myself later on for doing this, but I need to be the "Last Man" for a while. After all I am a "nihilist" too.

Edit: Ah I want to give Ghost Hound a try too.

[Starnum]

Oh yeah, I just noticed a couple of posts I guess I missed before. I just wanted to say that Gungrave was really cool, and interesting, IMO. Grave goes off at the end too, so that was cool. That reminds me of a Boondocks joke.

"Dez nuts, biatch! Ahahahaha, that's from Beyond the Grave. You'll never get me back."

You know, when the old guy had made the tape and set the shit up before he died. That bit was hilarious.

Anyway, what episode of Bleach are you on Aether? I was just going to say that it's a really great series, and I hope you enjoy it. It's definitely one of my favorites.

Oh, and as for the DMC anime, I love the games as you may know, but I haven't even watched the anime. I mean, I should, but everyone has made it sound soooo bad. So I imagine it sucks balls if there's no plot and Dante just one-shot kills everything, meh.

Speedgrapher is a good anime
Whats Code Geass about, havent heard anything about it at all?

[Aetherfukz]

I'm still on Bleach. Up to episode 98 now. And while it has definately the traits of a shonen anime, there are a couple of things IMO that do it apart from DBZ and the likes: Fights don't last 10 episodes, often its not Ichigo who defeats the bad guy, and best of all: The bad guys aren't just "Yo imma gonna take over the world"-bad, they all have their reasons, like the Bounto, I really take a liking to their cause now.

[Starnum]

Ah yeah, that's cool. The Bound arc is filler though, so I didn't watch it all. *shrugs*

I would not even know how to thoroughly explain what Code Geass is without angering someone.
I think the best is for me to give you links to the show.

Hmm, didn't know. But if that's a filler arc, I want more filler

I'm psyched to find out what the Arcancar arc is about... hope it's about Aizen and his gang again.
