I'm making a huge mistake for allowing you to continue watching Naruto, but here, take your poison: http://anilinkz.com/series/naruto-shippuuden

I already did previously, but here it is again in all it's creepi--- glory, I mean in all it's glory!



Plus this one.
This one is interesting; It's a special Sega one, she's all in blue, with the X-mas gifts and instead of NERV written on the base, it has SEGA.

Now, Asuka, I do have the plushie and a small figurine but nothing that special... one of these days I have to correct this, Asuka wasn't bad at all, but with the recent Evangelion movies her badass level reached new heights!

Well it's not too creepy, you don't have a sailor fuku Rei yet.

Finished Arpeggio. Damn. That was some good stuff. The character animations were a tad choppy at times. But the battles were smooth and looked quite good. None of the characters got on my nerves and I liked them all on the whole. Would definetly watch a second season if that was to come down the line at some point.

Do you know if there are any plans for western companies to pick it up? If i remember right some of the CR subs were a bit dodgy
Also my DVD collection needs it

No, unfortunately I have no idea!

Also had a good intro. Was kinda weird that it sort of just disappeared for like 3 episodes in the middle there though...

Now go read the manga. You can find the new chapters on CR for free but the manga premium is different from the anime one sadly so you have to get that for the old ones. I found that the manga was really really good. The anime takes out quite a lot but still really manages to remain afloat. You feel a bit gutted about the anime after reading the manga though since you realize just how good it could have been. Maybe ones of the best page turning manga I've read.

I'll add it to the list! Lots of Manga I want to go and read. On top of all the shows I want to watch too... Must resist overloading!

I SHALL WATCH WHAT I PLEASE! Seriously? What's with all the Naruto hate? I know it's regarded as a sub-par Anime but I still enjoy it...

Thanks Dracon!

I'm sure it was mostly in jest.

What are your guy's opinions of Gurren Lagann? I've heard it's pretty good as a pop-corn anime, but was just wondering what you guys could say about it, be it good or bad.

It IS true that I hate Naruto. I really do: I followed it weekly, but after a year of fillers (this was back then between Naruto and Shippuden), after a particular bad one, something just clicked. I gave up on anime for... years, actually.

But I have nothing against people liking it! Hence why I helped Thraka. People are free to enjoy anything they like

Gurren Lagann is probably one of the best anime I have ever seen. Period.

Ok, if I have to add some details.

It's a love letter to the Mecha-genre through 3 distinct ages: the 70s, the 80s and 90s. It starts with 2 idiots attempting to leave the village, it ends in a scenario of massive awesome. No exageration. The characters are fleshed out and likable, one in particular is the stuff legends are made of and I'm sure you'll find plenty of him around the internet: Kamina.

Just be sure to prepare yourself for LOADS of over-the-top action. And I mean loads, including crazy epic speeches like you rarely see anymore. This show was the definition of OTT for me until Kill la Kill, and of course, KLK is from many of the same guys that did GL AND Evangelion. And it showed. A Lot.

Honestly, it's all kinds of awesome. Just be sure to skip the infamous ep. 16. KLK even made a reference to it scaring the gak outta me, making me think ep. 16 would again be a flashback episode.

Is it on the same level of Awesome as FMA or Trigun? Or slightly below that?

hm i have wolf children sat waiting for me to watch it.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

It's above. I've seen only like, the first 7 episodes of it, and I can tell you that easily.

I'm a big fan of Trigun. I watched it all those years ago, I have the manga, Vash was my "FPS" multiplayer tag since that time and remains one of my favorite characters of any anime and even then I have to say Gurren Lagann is so much, much, MUCH more awesome. It just never stops. The action just keeps coming, keeps getting better until this final episode of sheer mind-blowing OTT awesome final fight.

Oh, and I'm a big fan of FMA aswell, and I devoured FMA: Brotherhood in a really short time. And even then, I must say GL is more awesome.

But, again, it's very OTT. VERY OTT. I honestly think it is a "hate it or love it" kind of thing.

Well, after three episodes, I'm definitely liking it, and can see why everyone loves Kamino. It's weird though; he's the type of character I usually hate.....

I think it's the... earnestness of him. He's just who he is, and takes it all the way.

Gurren Lagaan is one of my favorite animes, right up there with Full Metal Alchemist:Brotherhood. Also Kill la Kill, Soul Eater and Slayers.

Trigun, though I thoroughly enjoyed it, is not ranked quite that high on my list. Same would go for the original Full Metal Alchemist. They're definitely good, but they don't reach that top echelon of favorite animes ever.

It's so great to come back and see this thread again. anyone here like Kill la Kill? I just finished watching it again.

Hahaha. Oh goddess. Remilia this thread was a multipage love letter to KLK and Trigger while it was airing XD

it was such a great series. I didn't expect any less from trigger. (◕◡◕✿)

Meh, KLK was fun but nowhere near as awesome as Guren.

Also, think I'm pretty much done with mahouka koukou no rettousei. This is just going nowhere and the ever present incest theme is just dumb, it adds nothing.

Thoroughly enjoying hunter X hunter though.

Yeah, if you try to check our posts when KLK aired, well, you'll see the *BOOM* each time an episode aired. It was fantastic (and some people are fanboys of certain KLK characters. No idea who, tho )

@Soladrin - Bah, surrender to the awesome that is KLK!

I dropped that show weeks ago when they gave me uet another over-complicated explanation that'd require to read it more than once... Complex is good, over-complicated is a no-no.

HxH... I have a friend who's following it and he's desperate for the current arc to finish It's hilarious how much he's suffering because of it.

Speaking of KlK, I saw a similar image to this going by on on a semi the other day and got a tad nerous...



Automatically Appended Next Post:
Season 2: Life...pigments. Bodypaint... y'know, pretty much as much coverage as was already going on.

Meh, I felt it was extremely overhyped and a lot of left me with a "meh" kind of feeling. Hell, I even took a 4 week break right in the middle of it.

So I learned the reason that all the Anime Draconiclord gave me in that link was subbed. (I only watch dubbed as a matter of personal choice)
The Naruto Shippuden English dub only extends to about episode 250. Oh well. Buuut... LEGEND OF KORRA SEASON 3 STARTS SOON! (Not sure if considered anime)

Oh dear. I haven't even watched the second book! Oh, I have to correct this ASAP, I loved the first one.

Pity it didn't have more Sokka in it. The world needs more Sokka and his boomerang.

I saw that on Amazon, is it pretty much just more of the same in terms of similarity to Avatar, or is there a lot of difference?


Still chugging through Naruto on Amazon. It's a bit conflicting to watch. The parts where they actually act smart and "ninja like" are pretty neat, the OTT ninja wizardry that goes on is a bit meh. The repetition is really what gets to me though. The very first neat trick where they throw the shuriken at the badguy with another shuriken in it's shadow but that's actually a knife throwing Naruto instead.. that was neat. Watching it happen three times at varying camera angles was a bit much, and then seeing the entirety of it again in the next episode was just boring. And pretty much everything of significance (or even not) gets overlapped like that. Still, something to watch

Sure it counts.

<----- excited for season 3

Tonight I think I'm either going to start Golden Time or Asura Cryin'. Not sure which yet. It'll All depend on the mood Im in tonight. Also still impatiently waiting for the last Episode of Nanana's!

Legend of Korra is as closely related to The Last Airbender as, um, The Lord of the Rings is related to The Hobbit. (actually that's a pretty good analogy)

It's set with, essentially, the 2 generations after the Gaang- Aang's kids, Toph's daughter, and the next Avatar and her friends are the 'main' characters, and the story is a little darker, and everyone's a little older than the Gaang was, so there's more, well, "adult" stuff. Also, steampunk and jazz. (that seems to have driven off a lot of people)

I think Nickelodeon actually has most, if not all, of the full episodes available in high quality for streaming on their website (surprise surprise!)


There was a lot of issue with how the Legend of Korra seasons are all 'neatly wrapped up' season to season, unlike the overarching plotline the first series had- this is because Korra was only ever bought by the season, so Bryke never knew if the show would last beyond a single season. Because of this, things are a little... compressed- it feels often like it wants to be a long, seasons spanning show, especially in the pacing of individual episodes, but because of that unsure-ness, they had to wrap up the storyline within a single season.

It's fun, and pretty cool to watch. Not ATLA, but good in its own right.
