  1. Mmmh... Frankly, it's discussable: after Z was ZZ which was everything you want except "the Z formula" (except maybe in the second half...), and after that was V. I agree that G has nothing to do with Z (or any other Gundam series to begin with...) but X appears very different than Z, all the more as it can be considered as an alternate future of the post-OYW era: the setting, the newtype concept,... everything is very different. Because it's crap, W doesn't count. Seed is obviously a come back to the roots of the franchise and it's closer to First than Z; on the other hand, Destiny wanted to be some sort of Z clone, but failed What I like the most in V is how it is an independent story: you'll have more difficulties in following Z than V because of its elements taken from First. Z is a sequel, V is a standalone: this is what makes it more appealing to a newcomer to the franchise IMO
  2. Anyway, I found V far better than Z But not even half as good as Turn A, of course
  3. That's the sort of stuff these guys could come with, especially Kubrick...
  4. I'm onto Dangaizer: this show is... surprising in some ways Otherwise, I agree on the "Planetes owns" statement
  5. There is no original book, but a short story called The Sentinel; the book was written based onto the scenario that Kubrick and Clarke wrote together in taking this short story as a basis and in extrapolating it David Hingtgen & Gubaba: me too, I couldn't read Fellowship of the Ring, at 12 as at 32... One day, maybe I'll finish it... One day... Maybe...
  6. He changed of face since the last update As long as he doesn't look like Neo...
  7. OK, thanks: maybe I'll give it a try then...
  8. I also enjoyed it: there was some funny moments Never played any of the games though: is Till the End of Time a good start or should I buy a PSP instead?
  9. Maybe... I don't really remember any more: I didn't play this game since at least 15 years; youth doesn't know what is good
  10. Never mind, dude, there's indeed a way to damage internal structure because of a fall: just roll a double 2 onto the damage location chart and it will do a critical hit which will go right through the armor and damage the endoskeleton only The "fun" part is when this critical hits an ammo storage, except in post-3050AD
  11. Now that you tell me that, they are indeed pretty similar... You were talking about the Max from M7, right?
  12. I'm onto Gravion: I expected something more serious...
  13. Finished Ef - A Tale of Memories yesterday: simply one of the greatest shows I've seen so far Currently downloading its sequel, Ef - A Tale of Melodies
  14. Watched Cobra The Animation: Time Drive lately: I have been rather disappointed by The Psychogun last year, and this one is not really better. As a general rule, I don't really like prequel-like stories which dig into major characters' past: it's often disappointing because it gives a picture of the character which is not in accordance with what I expected and which hurts the myth more than it dolls it up A very egocentric point of view, I know... It was nice to see Cobra again nonetheless: I hope the incoming TV series will be really good
  15. Finished .Hack//Liminality yesterday: I thought it was rather interesting but very slow and sometimes difficult to follow; fortunately, it is only 4 eps long...
  16. Several solutions to your problem : - change of girl friend - don't make her watch animes: it's violent and perverted, she'll think you are too and will leave you - explain to her that culture deserves efforts (good luck to make a girl get this...) - tell her that 50% of the interest of animes resides in the original voice acting (girls being very sensitive to sounds/voices/musics, this may work, except if she listens to sh!tty music which is probably the case because girls usually have bad taste: see right above...) - bring her to bed instead of watching animes with her, you stupid!
  17. Saw The Sky Crawlers the day before yesterday: it's a very good movie although a bit confusing in the beginning; you have to wait the second half to get where Oshii wants to go, but after that it all becomes pretty clear and appears as very characteristic of this director's previous works (especially GitS: one of the characters in Sky Crawlers makes this quite obvious...) I've not been very awed by the visuals though, not as much as I expected to be actually: even if the various landscapes and the animation of the planes are flawless, the characters looked rather bland to me (but, due to the theme of the movie, it may have been intentionnal...)
  18. I think we are a lot in this case...
  19. Oh, OK: now I understand why there's 2 different websites Thanks for the clarification, and keep up the good work: some of us waited for a long time to get subs of these shows
  20. It's a good thing that some fansubbers decided to work on these old classics - A.X.S.U.S. does Xabungle (17 eps so far) - [msubs] does Daitarn 3 and Great Mazinger also - xnebula works on Dougram - and starseeker is on Raideen Finally, [msubs] boards are full of win and gold Feel free to share your own links, guys
