    The idea sounds really great but it doesn't seem anyone is interested so far (60 reads and no replies... lol)

    Count me in, hopefully you can set this into motion if you get a decent number of followers.
     
    For too long has low-, medium-, and quasi-class anime taken the limelight. It's a fact. Not enough people appreciate the fine, honed art of anime elitism.
    This changes now. We will set in motion a grand scheme unlike anything seen before. We will wage a war the 8.7-averaged MAL users cannot possibly win. We will show the world that--

    Hell yeah, I'll watch hipster animus with you lads.

    And so will YOU.
     
    I'll be interested if we actually try to watch some good stuff. If it's less known/obscure stuff in question, I'll probably know some good recs. Still need to catch up with that Hataraku Maoh watch as well.
     
    Neat, some members. I'd like to get a few more people through the doors before we start with that anime stuff so now would be a good time to gauge opinion on my initial rulez. As I've said, I'm open to suggestions. I think if we can make it as tight as possible from the start we'll be less likely to die by the end of September.

    I may skip some if they don't appeal though if that is cool.

    Yeah, I won't be expecting people to watch everything. All I can ask is that people keep an open mind and give things a go.
     
    Suppose we'll go with 6 then, hopefully people will join along the line with the thread constantly being at the top of the page ({XD}).

    Feel free to put forward some ideas for our first shows then (1 series and/or the film/ova). Also over to you Kenchiin, you get to pick one straight up, that's some pressure right there.
     
    I have a few on my to watch list that i would like to suggest.
    However just want to confirm if there is an age rating we have to keep to, or anything goes?.
     
    Well per site rules, any porn is right out. Outside of that, just be mindful of keeping screenshots PG-13, and if you're going to share illegal sources, do it offsite. But all those should be a given.

    ^ Just stating all of that in an official capacity. Below is in a personal capacity.

    I'm interested in joining, but I've got enough on my plate over the next 3 weeks that adding 3 episodes of anime to that is a bad idea.
     
    Yeah, I'd assumed people would be fine without me quoting house rules.
    Spoiler:


    Would be good to have you in here once your schedule clears up a bit. Perhaps the OVA/Film part would be doable for you now?
     
    In that case from my to watch list I would like to suggest the following;

    Texhnolyze
    Aoi Bungaku
    Mnemosyne

    Will be watching these myself at some point regardless but let me know if there is any interest for them or if anyone has opinions on these would be glad to hear, please don't spoil though =p.

    Aight! Here are some proposals—straight from my Plan To Watch list:

    Blue Submarine No. 6 (Sci-fi OVA)
    Kino's Journey (mushi-shi with a moped)
    Yamada-kun and the Seven Witches (OP is comfy as hell, I want in)
    Kare Kano (Anno and romance, what could go wrong?)
    Click to expand...
    First two look interesting =). Submarine might be a good start?, not too many episodes.
     
    Now the moment you have all been waiting for, my first suggestions.

    For the main show I'll be putting forward some sci-fi from the turn of the century, Brigadoon. From what I've read it'll give us plenty of talking points and it's been on my PTW for years.

    The Wings of Honneamise will be my film suggestion. I'm sure most of you know of it already but it's just so underwatched compared to all of the other Gainax classics.

    From the selections thus far I'd be happiest to go along with Kare Kano or Texhnolyse (although I kind of feel that's a 'watch at your own pace' sort of show).
