Keith Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 That bit was awesome. Someone posted to this somewhere else relating to the very scene. Hilarious. By the way, it's a bit NSFW and please do have headphones on if you click on it. http://a.pomf.se/ktpnbo.webm Cross Ange is seriously my favorite season of Gundam Seed.

Vifam7 Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 I'm going from one Fukuda Mitsuo involved series to another. Just finished watching all of Cyber Formula (TV & OAV series) and have now started on Cross Ange. It certainly took awhile for Ange to end her cringeworthy princess ways!

Keith Posted March 30, 2015 Share Posted March 30, 2015 And that season is over: Cross Ange: Tusk Harem Earth FTW! A/Z: Wing Ending fail This show could have used about 25 more eps, sone real backstory on Vers, and a more drawn out resolution. Parasyte: I'm all around happy here. Kantai Collection: MORE!! Note: Yurikuma is gonna take me sn extra week 'cus I'm watching the hulu stream. But even if they swap out the last ep with Aldnoah Zero, this show is still infinite win.

A. Why are they presenting all this information as an image? Is a tiny bit bit of CSS THAT hard to write? i mean, if anichart.net could do it... B. ANOTHER friggin' Nanoha series? Did I not suffer enough when you monsters did StrikerS? Yeah. I don't see a lot to excite me here. I'm committed to finishing Unlimited Blade Works, but if you ask me, going on a three-month hiatus mid-arc is a big fat load of crap.

Marzan Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 So far the spring 2015 season is pretty meh. Other than Arslan and Oregairu (My Teenage SNAFU or whatever dumb name they gave in English) nothing has really delivered. Fate as usual looks great and has insane production values, but the characters are still pretty boring. Also, a lot of stuff didn't get licensed for the first time in a while. I wonder if CR and Funimation are getting more picky , or if licenses are getting more expensive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dangard Ace Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Kinda ecchi like Daimidaler was to Super Robots. But it's a cooking anime and I haven't seen one since Yakitate! so I'll give it a few more episodes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marzan Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 Not really anime since it's a western series but there is a Macross relation. A series that I backed on Kickstarter called Cannon Busters is starting production, and have announced that it's none other than Kawamori's Satelight that's assisting them with production and animation. http://www.cannonbusters.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kinda boring to me. I'd rather bring a date to a food tasting and watch their reactions instead of an anime girls reaction. I've been reading the manga for Shokugeki and it's very much like Yakitate! Japan. Research of food ingredients by the characters, how to cook it, why it works and how to make it for real. Can't wait for the anime to catch up.

frothymug Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 Since there's been some hype behind the new season (and movie) of The Fruit of Grisaia, I decided to give the first season a try. I was definitely intrigued by the ending of the first episode, but after three episodes, I'm beginning to wonder if I'm wasting my time. The third episode did pretty much nothing to advance the plot. Do I need to give it some more time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not much real cooking from what I've seen (does the one pot dish even count?). Lol yeah, mostly exaggerated reactions (much like yakitate). Oishinbo is the og manga for cooking, with some OVAs too I think. Tanpopo is one of the classic live action movies on food (mostly ramen). I thought that yakitate was done! I'll check out the manga again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dangard Ace Posted April 17, 2015 Share Posted April 17, 2015 Yakitate's been done for a few years now. I just like it cause it covers a bunch of different breads and ways to cook them. Then it got ridiculously with the puns and gags and really weird at the end. Anime and manga endings are different. I've got to get into Oishinbo. I've got access to the entire series, just need to read them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marzan Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 This season so far hasn't been too impressive and I've already dropped a ton of shows (which is good since I only have so much time). Arslan and Oregairu (Teenage SNAFU or however they translated it) are the pick of the bunch and I'm continuing with Jojo and Fate (not as good as Fate Zero but damm the production values are insane). Ore Monogatari is pretty decent too. Unfortunately Sidonia will not be available until it's released on Netflix once the season ends.

chyll2 Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 I am still watching World Trigger and noticed that it is on 26th episode now, it is a good thing since it will go for 50 episodes now so they can cover the current arc and another one but they might run out of material since the manga is not that far ahead.

isamu Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 I'm watching GitS SAC for the first time and just completed the first season. It's pretty good although nothing I'd call revolutionary or "SUPER CRAZY AWESOME" like some others have claimed. Makoto is badass as usual but I really don't enjoy the episodic nature of the show, and wish it contained one long serialized narrative. Hope the 2nd season is more serialized. I still consider the 1st GitS movie the best of anything GitS related. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still consider the 1st GitS movie the best of anything GitS related. I agree. I heard that the Oshii movie isn't anything like Masamune's manga (which I've read about, but never actually read), but I still like it the best among the later anime. The second movie was decent, but it felt overwrought affected, and more like a side-story resolving around Batou. As for whether 2nd Gig is less episodic than SAC, it's been a while since I watched either seasons, but IIRC, it's got a somewhat more unified storyline than SAC. It still has the occasional one-off eps, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnkillingsworth Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 The first GitS movie is definitely a classic, but pure Oshii - slow-paced and dry. I prefer it greatly to the sequel which focused on Batou and had vastly different animation quality (more CG). I don't like how later releases of the first GitS movie changed the color palette and added more CG to make it uniform with the 'sequel'. The manga by Shirow is totally different in tone and he's a playful author with many light comedy moments to balance the serious scenes. Oshii doesn't do comedy. Check out my reviews for them: http://dubsub.blogspot.com/2013/12/ghost-in-shell-anime-movie-review.html and http://dubsub.blogspot.com/2014/07/ghost-in-shell-2-innocence-anime-movie.html The two TV series are very different than the movies (no Oshii) and closer to the manga. You get light-hearted moments (especially the Tachikomas). I enjoyed both series and recommend them. Each has a condensed 'movie' version which cuts out a lot of the cutesy stuff and unifies the main stories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marzan Posted May 4, 2015 Share Posted May 4, 2015 Any else checking out Battle Blood Blockade (Kekkai Sensen)? It's absolutely incredible stuff. It's directed my Rie Matsumoto who also did Kyousou Giga and based on a manga by the same guy who did Trigun. Think a mixture of Baccano, Darker than Black and Space Dandy and you'll get the feel of it. I can warmly recommend it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I havent done any check on the background of it so it is the first time I heard that it is based on a manga. I thought it was all Original for TV, which now kind of scare me since later down the line, I can expect it to go south and create another weird anime-only cheesy ending. Anyone can recommend a good Anime Movie, recently watched Vampire Hunter D movie and it is good. I might have missed some from the 80's and 90's era.

I suppose you've seen the likes of Akira or Ghost in the Shell, right? Some other films I can recommend from the 80's and 90's. The Wings of Honeammise Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind Princess MononokePerfect Blue Grave of the Fireflies Adieu, Galaxy Express 999 Patlabor I and II Angels Egg Arcadia of My Youth and many more...it really depends on what you like A personal favorite of mine is Urusei Yatsura 2.
