インフェルノの津波 June 13th, 2011 9:12 PM

I just finished 5D's...wasn't satisfied for Jack turning into an ass again, and Y U NO ROMANCE, YU-GI-OH?!

Watching Zexal now, which is pretty...interesting.

Charizard★ June 14th, 2011 4:58 AM

To be honest, the only good Yugioh season was the first one, then GX was bearable, but the rest, not good. At all.

Rewatched a couple of GITS 2nd GIG on AS last night, god I want to watch the whole season so badly now! Same goes for the first two seasons of Pokemon, Cowboy Bebop, first season of Yugioh and even One Piece for some reason.

I liked the first one, for at least the first three seasons. Duelist Kingdom was brilliantly executed, Duel City was also amazing, and I just loved the concept behind Noah's plot and having all the deck masters. It was interesting and I liked it. After that it went downhill. :[ I also have to agree with you on the GX thing, which was bearable. I haven't seen 5D's or Zexal yet, so I have no opinion on that, although the concept behind Zexal seems dumb. Card games in space, wtf?

I might also re-watch Highschool of the Dead. I enjoyed it a lot, and wouldn't mind watching it again. :D Kohta-san is obviously the best character there.

digi-kun June 14th, 2011 7:43 AM

U just mad at card games on motorcycles.

5D's wasn't that bad, it got a bit cheesy at times, but it was overall pretty good. GX was fun, though it completely forgot Misawa was in the party (plus it had those great OPs and EDs, including Wake Up Your Heart [and also had SEIGI NO MIKATA KAIBAMAN!). ZEXAL is a Mahou Shoujo with card games.

And here I thought they were trying to push Yusei x Aki

Yugioh never really seemed like the romance type anime, which is a good thing I suppose. In the original you could totally see Yugi x Tea happeneing, or even going as far as Tristan/Duke x Serenity.

Charizard★ June 14th, 2011 10:55 AM

Finished Dragon Crisis, and overall it was a good anime. 7/10 Hopefully there will be a second season to it, which because of the ending there should be.

Spoiler:
I wanted to see Rose transform :/

A Pixy June 14th, 2011 2:49 PM

I've seen random episodes of 5D's on TV.

It's pretty cool so far. o3o

Charizard★ June 14th, 2011 3:20 PM

Re-watched the first 4 episodes of Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone complex. God I loved it, the first episodes was good, and so were the rest. I would tell you about them in a review but I honestly already forgot which one was which. And the second seasons opening/closing (Idk which one it is) song is stuck in my head now.

Alternative June 14th, 2011 4:33 PM

I know you're having a marathon, right? :3
Anyway, this has nothing to do with anime, but I'm going to be pre-ordering the new Zelda game on the 3DS at my local game store, which has a sushi bar right next to it pretty much, so I might try some. Any suggestions on what I should get?

Yup.
Clannad. It's truly a 'brilliant' anime :3

God, I want to go to a sushi bar so badly, but the nearest one is quite far and my whole family are vegetarians :/

Alternative June 14th, 2011 6:30 PM

Well actually now mum said she might pre-order for me now, so that sucks, considering I wanted to go and get a sushi for me. I've never tried sushi though. I know it's like, rice, seaweed and a protein in the middle. :]

Weeaboo Name June 14th, 2011 8:02 PM

Clannad After Story is the best series ever, nothings gotten close imo.

Downloading the first GITS series now, looking forward for that.

And wow, The End of Evangelion sure was something.

Elite Overlord LeSabre™ June 15th, 2011 4:10 AM

I'm gonna spend all day today downloading episodes from various seasons of Pretty Cure... maybe this time Yes! PreCure 5 will finally get subbed without the subbing group disbanding halfway through it...

And Clannad = Best. Series. Evar. I've still only seen After Story once, streaming. I'd like to get the DVD of it sometime.

Alternative June 15th, 2011 4:35 AM

Wait, what? Half the subbing group disbands during the middle of an episode, or did I interpret that wrong. XD; I'm going to download Highschool of the Dead, for future reference, or if I ever want to watch it again, which I most likely will. :]

Weeaboo Name June 15th, 2011 4:43 AM

He meant half way through a series.

Can't say HOTD is far up my list of series I'd ever rewatch, 'twas fun though.

Just watched the Ghost in the Shell original movie, was pretty good.

WATCH CLANNAD ALTERNATIVE!

I'm very thankful that Jordan forced me to watch it, otherwise I would have thought it was crap. If you think HotD is good, then you'll be blown away by Clannad.

Weeaboo Name June 15th, 2011 5:27 AM

Although they are just about as different as could possibly be.

Alternative June 15th, 2011 5:29 AM

So Clannad is on the list of anime I should go and check out. :) Are there any good anime which are short (<25 episodes) and are particularly newish? The only anime names I know of are those ones which are either finished and long, or ongoing and short. I want one which isn't ongoing, and is short, so I probably won't even consider Ao no Exorcist, Hidan no Aria, Astarotte no Omocha and so forth, because I think they're all ongoing right now.

Well, they both are school.......but still it's better :V

Weeaboo Name June 15th, 2011 5:57 AM

That's true...but oh well. :P

Anyways, I'm off to go watch some GITS. It's weird how I'm obsessed with that anime now :/

Weeaboo Name June 15th, 2011 6:21 AM

Enjoy. I've got a pizza in the oven so i'll be getting back to my latest watch in a second.

Isn't that the one you were talking about?

And a question to people who have seen the Ghost in the Shell series and movies, is it worth watching the movies that summarize the series? Or are they a bit different?

Weeaboo Name June 15th, 2011 6:48 AM

Think that's the first time i've brought that series up, last few days i've been watching NGE.

There are a couple of films, the original and the second film Innocence. There's also 2.0 which is a remake of the original.

Then there's the other setting, the two series along with recap film/s and spin off episodes.

Ah, okay gotcha. I'm just having trouble finding. GITS: S.A.C - The Laughing Man & GITS 2.0. :/
