I'm mainly interested in it because it's based in Chicago, and I want to see how it's depicted. It should be pretty interesting, since I asked here and some other people and they all said they enjoyed it. |
The first 4 episodes I saw made perfect sense. o3o
Also, Gintama 211, I lol'd, then I was sad, then I shouted awesome, then I was sad again. :C |
Quote:
Isn't Gintama more of a parody series than anything else? Something similar to Lucky Star or something? |
Lucky Star isn't exactly the best thing to compare it to. While it does reference other shounen anime liberally, it's still a shounen anime in essence. Meh. I'll just let the fantard take over in explanation from here.
|
I would draw comparison to The Simpsons. You think it's just some silly, stupid parody thing. But then you get attached to the characters and that's when the creator can do whatever he wants with your emotions. He made me sad. :C

Exactly. Depends on whether or not you would dedicate about 30 initial episodes of slow character character development before the show goes full throttle. And by full throttle, I mean filler filler filler ARC filler filler filler ARC etc.

Anyone like the series Denpa Onna? |
I'm not even sure if it's characer development in Gintama, it's more just you getting used to them. I've been watching it for months and I'm still not even half way through the first lot of episodes, still better than most comedy series out there so it's cool.
Also I'd say Gintama is nearest to Hayate no Gotoku! or strangely enough Cowboy Bebop imo(shoot me if you wan't). Gotta love the random moments. Spoiler:
As for Denpa, I answered the other day I think. Ok but far from amazing, it's like Arakawa but worse with an annoying lead. |
/shoots Lapras.
Anyone seen Astarotte no Omocha? I haven't yet but the info on it is a bit odd.... Synopsis: Spoiler:
Is it just me that thinks that it's a bit weird? I'm all for an ecchi anime, but this might just be too weird for me. |
I've read some of that, it's not as bad as it sounds. Couldn't stand another Rie Kugimiya loli lead so I'm not watching. The story is pretty vanilla, nothing special. If you want a purely fanservice orientated show i'd go with Enma kun or seikon no qwaser.
Just to let you know Takuto's radience is even more magnificent on my widescreen tv, It was also amusing when my sister said "is that sailor moon for boys?". |
Nahh, I'm not in the mood for purely ecchi anime right now. I'm looking for more of a plot. God, I wish there was a new good romance anime similar to Amagami SS. That was one of the best.
I'm guessing Takuto is one of the characters in it? |
Takuto is Star Drivers lead.
I haven't seen Ama SS but my favourite romance series are Clannad and AS, ef - a tale of memories, Spice and Wolf, Arakawa, Koi Kaze, Toradora! and True Tears. You've probably seen most of them but yeah, my faves. Actually looking at this list it's a little outdated but i haven't seen many romance series lately. |
Quote:
I get what you mean, I think, there hasn't been any good romance anime as of last year. |
Amagami SS was not long ago was it? There was also the second season of Kimi ni Todoke which wasn't horrible. There were other series i've liked that have a bit of romance but nothing enough so that you could truly give it the tag, Fractale and Star Driver are perfect examples.
I'm thinking about giving Kare Kano a go soon, see if I can get into the genre again. |
Quote:
That's a pretty old series. I was looking for it in the .avi format last year and had no luck. Now that I'm not, I might have some luck. |
I forgot i might also start Onii-sama e, Nana or Nodame Cantabile for the romance.
Yeah, i downloaded it in a few hours from Bakabt, looks good quality wise. Just looked at next seasons chart, very little for straight up romance series. There's a probable reverse harem that looks better than Starry Sky and of course Usagi Drop which has a bit or romance. Meh, looks like older series for this genre atm. |
Quote:
I'll go get it from there. The next seasons? Where? Link please? As for right now, it seems like I'm more interested in past series than the new ones. |
Here it is.
Spoiler:
I'm not sure what i'm interested in atm, if the airing shows i'm watching had already finished i'm not sure I'd even bother with most of them. Meh. |
Ohh. I saw that one, I thought you meant next seasons, not the summer, but the winter :x
I'm interested in a couple. Not too many tho. Have you seen any of the Break Blade movies? |
Kamiya, Nakamura, Hoshi and Chiwa Saito as the films main cast...very nice. I haven't seen the series but it sure has some voice talent.
Mostly looking forward for Usagi Drop and Blood-C, as long as they're nice I don't care too much about the rest. |
Quote:
Is Blood-C a continuation of Blood+? |
If you've seen Shaft shows (nekomimi, Arakawa, SZS, Bakemon ect) you'll know Kamiya instantly..
Spoiler:
|
Who does he voice in Arakawa?
Another youtube video I cannot watch -cries- I'm going to start Baccano! now, Inuyasha is starting to bore me for today! :x |
Ric, he's pretty much Shinbo's main male voice actor.
And Baccano, I might actually start that now. Are you watching in English or Japanese? |
