I-n-j-i-n Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 I just finished watching Gurren Lagann and now I don't know what to watch. Anybody wanna recommend me some animes that will make me laugh? Soul Eater is very good and has really good animation. I just watched the first episode of Hyakko and it made me laugh more than most new anime premiers. That one could be good too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malaki-LEGEND.sys Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 And so season 2 of the best Gundam series ever is begun. YAY! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OverCoat Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 They're making another season of Zeta Gundam? I don't see how that's possible Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleck Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 They're making another season of Superior Defender Gundam Force? I don't see how that's possible fixed that for you overcoat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avatar of Justice Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 You guys are wrong, it is Gundam SEED. OH MY GOD. Gundam 00 is so badass. I don't think any other anime's ever get my heart racing like a Gundam does. They have the best intros ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H. Guderian Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 The first new episode of 00 season 2 was indeed bliss, though there's a lot of great new stuff out this season. I found this picture over the vast internet detailing the shows out this fall: http://img528.imageshack.us/my.php?image=fall2008seasonpreviewfidr5.jpg But yes, Gundam 00 has got to have some of the better fights in Gundam history...next to Gundam Zeta! I love Zeta with a passion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gafgarion Posted October 8, 2008 Author Share Posted October 8, 2008 Genshiken went to a 2nd season, then stopped. They made a 9th volume of the manga, leading me to think they were going to make a 3rd season, but to my disappointment, it said end of Genshiken on the last page.

OverCoat Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 http://img528.imageshack.us/my.php?image=fall2008seasonpreviewfidr5.jpg I'm looking forward to the Nodame Cantabile there also: new hokuto no ken series? goddam There's SO MUCH NEW ANIME OUT and I'm still stuck in the 80s basically, haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H. Guderian Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 Aye, I've watched so much anime recently, and I'm behind again. I never even finished the first season of Nodame yet. I basically spent the summer catching up on really old anime. Its just amazing how much stuff comes out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gollgagh Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 http://img528.imageshack.us/my.php?image=fall2008seasonpreviewfidr5.jpg ooh Hell's Angels OVA I really liked the manga, maybe I should look into this one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OverCoat Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 Well, on the plus side, most of it is total shit, so we don't need to watch EVERYTHING It's just seeing a huge image like that makes it seem a bit... overwhelming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H. Guderian Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 Yeah, the list includes everything. Like, all audiences. I maybe only 'attempt' 5-8 shows and stick with like...whatever's good. but its nice to see whats coming out like this, sometimes things can air, you may like it, but never even know it existed. This helps...somewhat. I only seem to find these for Fall and winter seasons. I guess I'm too busy in Spring//Summer to look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I-n-j-i-n Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 This seasons so far has unexpectedly been very good. Hyakko (Azumanga-lite), Clannad, ef, Shugo Chara, Bounen no Xam, Casshern, Tales of the Abyss, etc etc. I don't need to introduce Gundam 00 or Nodame Cantabile to anyone. And there's even other really good watches. Kannagi looks like it'll be a lot of fun too. I think the funniest and potentially the most unique one is One Outs, which basically combines serious gambling with baseball. Really weird but really fun. Also has that old Akagi/Kaiji feel. And speaking of comedy series, I think Detroit Metal City is easily one of the funniest anime running right now. Basically a much more digestible version of Metalocalpyse. Also its two-episodes-per format makes it seem like oldschool cartoons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkeSword Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 Kannagi. When she eats the taiyaki. Adorable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H. Guderian Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 I enjoyed Toradora so far. As to how it pans out later I dunno. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkeSword Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 I enjoyed Toradora so far. As to how it pans out later I dunno. I've read a bit of the manga, it's a very fun series. The anime is shaping up to be great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I-n-j-i-n Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 Toradora proved to be really good show from the second episode. The first ep was all introductions and nothing much. Ep2 had way more comedy and relevant drama. Also Casshern is turning out into a classic from the looks of episode 2. Also, what's with anime openings and endings having chiptune music? It's all the rage nowadays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H. Guderian Posted October 11, 2008 Share Posted October 11, 2008 aye, got around to Casshern yesterday. Its certainly picking up a unique award from me. I wanna see more of whats going on there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brushfire Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 Also, what's with anime openings and endings having chiptune music? It's all the rage nowadays. It's not that chiptunes are all the rage with anime. It is more that budget cuts are all the rage with anime nowadays. I mean would it kill some of them to have more than the choppy 2/fps that most have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brycepops Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 aye, got around to Casshern yesterday. Its certainly picking up a unique award from me. I wanna see more of whats going on there. I saw the live-action movie sometime last year I think. It was pretty awesome. I might look into the anime soon :3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H. Guderian Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 Well the new Casshern has this...feeling to it. I don't know anything of the franchise. I'd recommend it to people just to experience its different-ness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I-n-j-i-n Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 It's not that chiptunes are all the rage with anime. It is more that budget cuts are all the rage with anime nowadays. I mean would it kill some of them to have more than the choppy 2/fps that most have. It's not just that either. Most shows can't be bothered for the normal 13 eps and most have 12 episodes or even only 10. In the 90's, most anime were at least the standard 26 episodes long. But now, they barely sputter to episode 24 or 25. But I still do think chiptunes is all the range with anime openings and endings though. It's awesome, but it's like they caught onto a trend and aren't letting go: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gxtg7KEuuSw http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2nsPhy5jY58 As for Casshern, the study on the extinction of robots is sort of like looking into what humans will devolve down to (ZOMBIES!) when faced with the prospect of certain death. It's quite ironic really. And easily one of the best anime running right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brycepops Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Bump with some news Dragon Ball Kai --------------------------------- From Wikipedia: "In February 2009, Toei announced that they would begin rebroadcasting Dragon Ball Z as part of the series' 20th anniversary celebrations. The series premiered on April 5, 2009, under the name Dragon Ball Kai, with the episodes remastered for HDTV, featuring updated opening and ending sequences, and a rerecording of the vocal tracks by the original cast.[38][39] They were also re-edited to more closely follow the manga, resulting in a faster moving story, and damaged frames removed.[40] As such, it is a "new" series created from the original Dragon Ball Z footage." And the new OP: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SnvupMV9su4 I'm pretty excited about this. The first episode has already been subbed, and it's pretty spiffy so far.

OverCoat Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 I'll probably watch the radditz arc and then stop watching forever series went downhill after that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malaki-LEGEND.sys Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 New Full Metal Alchemist began airing recently with the first episode out this week. I don't wanna dash any hopes of an actual sequel, but from the way thing looks it's a reboot, which is no problem to me because it's still FMA and they're still calling Ed short. I dunno if I'll want to watch it now or if I'll just wait 'til Funimation gets the dub out. This was one of the animes that I really preferred the dub over the sub.
