Anime is fine ive had two old mates from school become anime freaks tho and all they do is try to talk to me about some stupid anime ive no interest in seeing and even being blunt to the point of rude about it dosent deter them they also dress up and go to conferences and sorta just fail at life.
So its not really anime i mind its the freaks that devote there life to it that put me off
Damn I cant wait to the GW legal team codex comes out now there is a dex that will conquer all.
Anyone around here watch Claymore? I'm told it's pretty good, but I want to be sure before I buy a DVD.

People are like dice, a certain Frenchman said that. You throw yourself in the direction of your own choosing. People are free because they can do that. Everyone's circumstances are different, but no matter how small the choice, at the very least, you can throw yourself. It's not chance or fate. It's the choice you made.
Damn my empty weekend and my lack of anything else to do!

Also, Off Topic, but could you please use punctuation? It was kind of hard to follow that run on for a bit. [/qu
Never herd of any of the them but like I said they are really hardcore into the genre so I assume its like music nerds and they are always looking for obscure Anime.
Soz about the grammar but I do my best with the time I have.

Fair enough. Some Anime is pretty good, and is worth watching even if you don't like anime in general (especially the older Animes, like Trigun or the extremely old Anime like the origional season of Robotech).
I've never feared Death or Dying. I've only feared never Trying.
Overall I like the stylisation of the art but find some of the tropes get repetitive after you have seen a few series.
TBH if there wasn't this tag of Anime attached would it
get some of the flack?
To me it is just story telling through animation.
Some have a synthesis of a good story well told and great artwork. Some are a synthesis of gakk and dross. but it was ever thus.
There is such a broad spectrum and there is usually something to watch that I find interesting.
The other thing is it has to be SUBBED
Really detest Dubbed anime. As ever personal taste caveat applies.
I hate anime for what it has become through out the years.

Great show, although the end kind of gets a bit weird. Not really surprising, due to a bad case of Gecko Ending, but rather annoying. There's rumors of a new version coming soon, sort of like FMA: Brotherhood, which I'm eagerly awaiting.
Also, what is it with every show I watch having a horrible downer ending? Guy gets girl, three episodes later girl dies. The end. I'm going to go back to watching When They Cry. At least that can't get any worse...
I hate pretty much all of the TV shows, but there have been a few movies I have liked, such as Spirited Away or Castle in the Sky. Oh, and Howls Moving castle. Yay for steamnpunk stuff?

May the the blessings of His Grace the Emperor tumble down upon you like a golden fog. (Only a VERY select few will get this reference. And it's not from 40k. )

If you're a steampunk fan, you might consider trying the series Last Exile. Very well done, although certainly not anything like Miyazaki's work.

Really?? I thought the ending fight scene between Claire and...... that crazy lady was the only thing off about the show when comparing it to the manga if I remember correctly. Other than that I thought the show pretty much followed the manga rather closely (though it's been a while since I read that battle scene).

Like which shows?? Seems like that either happens or they don't end up together due to some silly reason (School Rumble comes to mind). Hmmm... I'm inclined to suggest Gunparade March. It's interesting, has mechs, bugs take over the world, romance that ends well, just a decent anime, not good and not bad.. oh! and it's short (about 12 episodes).
As for the anime I'm currently watching:
Legend of the Galactic Heroes (just awesome military sci-fi)
One Piece
Ghost in the Shell 2nd G.I.G.
Cowboy Bebop
Black Lagoon 1st and 2nd Barrage (can't wait to get the 3rd Barrage about the maid from hell)
Fairy Tale
Aria
"The Journey to the Answer is More Important than the Answer Itself."
a spokesperson from the Florida Humane Society reiterated that it's important to have all pets spayed or neutered, even ugly lame-o's who probably couldn't score in a roomful of calicos in heat.
One thing that is bugging me about a few of the series I am watching.
There is always a main female character whose role is to devote all their time to looking after the hero. Cooking HUGE breakfasts even.
