Not sure if want. The anime turned out sorta bad/pointless. Unless the manga is finishing up soon, I don't see this turning out very well.

Can someone recommend me a good anime outside of FMA and Higurashi?I want gore and stuff such as "7 deadly sins".

Puella magi madoka magica
Darker Than Black
Death Note
Speed Grapher
Denpa Teki na Kanojo
Black Lagoon
Akira

That should keep you going for a while.

Hey guys! I'm not an anime expert by any means, but I've been watching a few series here and there just for kicks, and I was wondering if Elfen Lied is any good? I heard it was pretty violent, and that sounds like it would be pretty humorous. I've heard a few say it was great, others said it was shit, so I figured you guys would point me in the right direction.

What I've watched so far (not much, I know, I'm just getting into this stuff): Girls Bravo and Dragon Ball. (only the first 20 episodes, I need to get through to watching more.) I've seen a ton of Studio Ghibli films as a kid, of course, and the typical kiddie shows (Yu-Gi-Oh, Pokemon, etc etc but I don't think those count for much).

Much obliged!

Has anybody here seen the Daughter of 20 Faces (Nijuu Mensou no Musume)? I was thinking of trying to get my hands on it.

I don't know much about it, but everyone who tends to share my tastes even a little bit really hate that show. That's all I can say.

I watched the first 8 episodes, it seems alright I guess. I normally like the goofy aspect of anime (thus why I love Dragon Ball so much) and this aspect of goriness wasn't funny it was just... a little overboard to be honest. I got to an episode where it reveals the backstory of one of the characters and a bunch of kids beat a puppy to death. Not exactly "so gory it's funny" stuff right there.

Only got 5 more episodes to go, might as well finish it off, right?

I'm not usually interested in anime conventions because they're full of insufferable weeaboo dorks dressed in shitty costumes and shitty panels about Yaoi or whatever, but this year I'm going to a convention called AnimeCon in my hometown because Yoshihiro Takahashi, the creator of Ginga Nagareboshi Gin is going to be there.

So, opinions on Basilisk. Some guy told me its good. I downloaded it, but have yet to watch it. Been a bit busy with LoL. Also wanted some opinions on whether or not Toradora manga is any good. I picked up the first 3 volumes again haven't read any yet though.

If all you're looking for is action, it's alright. Just don't expect anything in the way of plot or character development.

I finished up Godannar. It definitely has its share of holes, but it was a fun and entertaining show to watch. The focus on the mechanics was refreshing when compared with other mecha shows.

SHIZURU IS PERFECT <3

Durarara's great. Some didn't enjoy the second season's pacing, but I didn't really see a problem with it. Especially because of the events taking place.

You should definitely give it three episodes.

Yeah I know, durarara is fucking epic. People in this club have such shitty taste and watch entry level shit all the time. Some of them are even like LOL DEFF NOTE/ EFLEN LEAD IS BEST ANIME EVUR!!! XXXXXDDDDDD

Also I think people should know more about true tears, I thought it was really good apart from the ending for a certain reason.

Durarara sucked and I watched quite a few episodes, expecting it to be good. The characters were quirky in an annoying way as opposed to Baccano where the characters were quirky in a cool way.

Look! it's a gay as hobo!

So I'm on ep, 41 of LoGH, and this show is getting real intense now with the Ragnarok campaign. I'm not sure where this battle is headed, but I can't wait to find out.

Reading through Hoshizora no Memoria right now as well, and my verdict on the routes I've finished is:
Komomo > Isuzu > Asuho

Mare is the cutest loli/grim reaper/character ever, by the way.

Man, the Golgo 13 series is freaking badass.

I need something cleared up
Im re-watching Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya again, and ive gotten up to the point of the 8th episode. However, since my normal site for watching anime is down, ive had to revert over to youtube. However, when searching for episodes, ive gotten 2 different episodes that are labeled as number 8, and not being a total expert on this anime, got confused as to which one was the real one(its not a problem of which one looked legit, its a problem of which one i should watch first). So could one of you experts who knows this anime inside and out give me a synopsis of episode 8 so i know which one to watch?

The problem is there are several different orders of the series. The original broadcast series had a non-chronological broadcast order. The DVD has a chronological order but with a single episode out of place (the adventures of mikuru asahina).

So depending on the order you're watching, it might be the baseball episode (DVD order), the one where the make a website then have to find the computer club president (chronological), or the second episode of the remote island arc (broadcast order).

THEN, if you're watching the second season, which aired including the first season, and runs on chronological order, episode 8 kyon + mikuru travel back in time on tanabata. This is a single non-arc episode that slots between the baseball ep and the computer president ep chronologically (and by that note, in the second season broadcast order as well).

My advice is to find a single source (whether it's a website, a youtube user, or a torrent) (ps use a torrent), and then use that solely. Run through the first few eps to make sure you've seen them until you get to ep 8.

phew

Now that I've finished Hoshimemo, my route preference:
Komomo > Isuzu > Kosame > ??? > Mare > Asuho > Chinami

???'s route was tedious as hell and I considered dropping it because I felt that it dragged on a bit too much. The epilogue redeemed it completely, so it belongs in the middle. Smooth sailing for the rest of the routes, though.

SIEG MEIN KAISER!!

JJBA game and anime have been announced (anime isn't in this video, only game)

This was the first fucking thing I saw when I woke up, coupled with the anime announcement.

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCCCCCC CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH HHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

too bad JJBA is PS3 exclusive. fucking shit.

loved Dead Leaves. way better than that overrated FLCL.

Is the new JJBA anime going to adapt all the story arcs, because that shit is long due. The game doesn't look that interesting since I'm not a fan of versus fighters, should have been an action adventure game, but whatever, it might turn out to be good anyway. Speaking of games I ordered One Piece - Kaizoku Musou from Japan last week, the western release isn't until Christmas.

oh boy i love anime club

From what I've heard, it'll cover all of the parts.

I'm excited for part 4 the most -- it's easily my favorite arc -- and animated Kira/Killer Queen will be fucking awesome. I'm betting either Sunrise/Madhouse will be the studio in charge of animating it. Man, I JUST CAN'T FUCKING HOLD MY GODDAMN EXCITEMENT, THIS SHIT IS GOING TO FUCKING ROCK

In other news, I'm starting the Battle of Vermillion on LoGH. This show is going to reach its fucking climax with this arc, no matter what the result. Yang won't survive, will he? Reinhard's going to win and going to seize the universe (I'm okay with that, but I don't want to see Yang die). At least Julian will survive the battle right? ;_______;

Anyone else looking forward to Evangelion 3.0?
