J-E Questions [Now Also the Anime Recommendation] Thread

[digi-kun]

To be simple, this thread's purpose is for members to post any questions they have about anime that doesn't generate enough conversation to warrant the creation a new thread. This is an open thread, so anyone can ask or answer questions.

Possible questions can include:
Source request
What episode so and so scene was from
Clarification on something you don't understand
Translation
Etc.

Also, do NOT ask where you can download anything.

 

[Bay]

Quick question, would source request range anything from anime news to anime pics (when they're tasteful, of course)?

Other than that, have to say this is a good idea for a thread. :3 Yeah, it's good to ask questions and all, but a lot of times the threads here are just ones where you get a quick answer and not merit much discussion. Stop the cluttering! XD

 

[digi-kun]

As far as confirmation goes, yes. Anime news comes often, but can be inaccurate from time to time. Something like "Is this true?" or something works

 

[Miz en Scène]

Well then, time to break in the thread. XD

Is it true that Darker Than Black: Ryuusei no Gemini only has twelve episodes not including the OVA?
I'm wondering because it just seems too short in comparison to the first season (Darker than Black: Kuro no Keiyakusha). Also, it seems a bit rushed.

So, is it true? Anyone?

 

[Elite Overlord LeSabre™]

According to both MyAnimeList and Anime News Network, there are only 12 episodes, so you are indeed correct.

 

[parallelzero]

It is only twelve, but I've been hearing rumors of a third season in the works so you can put your hopes on that.

 

[Wings Don't Cry]

Does Suzaku get a Charles' Code in Code Geass R2, since Lelouch said he would watch over the world as Zero for all eternity. Also he doesn't die from the explosion.

If you're gonna say he doesn't just because "live on" still works on him then there's proof that you're only immune to the geass if you gave it to someone which is why Lelouch could use it on Charles when he had the code.

 

[Bay]

Hm, in this article, Charles' Geass is alternating memories, basically. From what I remember, Suzaku didn't use the Geass. About the "live on" part, probably. However, I think someone who knows the series better than I am will give you a better answer. XD

 

[Sarah Paliner]

Is there a name for the instrumental song that plays during the opening of the first Bakemonogatari episode?

 

[digi-kun]

As far as I know, there is no Bakemonogatari OST yet, so at this point, that would be a no

 

[Sarah Paliner]

That's a shame. Thanks for your help.

 

[Miz en Scène]

There's actually no way of phrasing this particular question without revealing spoilers of Darker Than Black:Ryuusei no Gemini's episode 12 finale so it'll be in a Spoiler tag. I don't think it's answerable to those who haven't watched the twelfth episode though...

Spoiler:

What is the song/OST that plays during the sequence when Suou is in the alternate Earth that Shion creates? The song that plays only when she in in the alternate earth with her mother, father ect...

 

[Empty Pot]

I am afraid no one will respond to my question here D:

Anyways, what is the song on the first episode of Death Note where Light is shown killing of people in jail and what not. This is the undubbed version and it is about 18 minutes into the episode. Thanks if you help. :s

 

[SolarAbusoru]

Hey, I'm looking for the name of an Anime, I used to watch it about 7 years ago I think, I can give details about what was in it.

Spoiler:

4 protagonists, A girl, about in her young adult years, in some sort of white dress, A young teen, probs about 12 or something, wears red armour, an adult man with aqua hair, and some fat bloated food loving anthropomorphic cat, the girl I think rode around in some sort of pod, and the anime involved cards, that's all I can remember.

Any chance anyone here knows the name of this anime?

 

[Ryoutarou]

I'm going to guess...Shinzo?

*jumps back to hiding*

That's it, thanks. That's all I needed to know.

That would be 'Low of Solipsism' by Yoshihisa Hirano. It can be found on the first Death Note OST, track #23

You could try Mora Win, on the left hand side they have a top song ranking list that is updated pretty frequently. (below that being album rankings). Clicking on any of the icons/album art will bring up the details of them, but the entire website is in Japanese, so it may or may not be helpful for some :/ At the very least though you can test music and if you like the song just copy the name into google or something and I'm sure you will be able to figure it out from there :p Their top 100 for both songs (left) and albums (right) is here. It may be a little bit easier to use :p
