Japan - now hailing from the Proxima Centauri system.

You know what I meant -.-

Double post

 

[nessokman]

mfw my only long running shounen series has been Dragonball and Dragonball Z

I feel like I just walked in on a pair of pitbulls fighting

I don't like many long series either. Fairy tail is my only series at 300 or more chapters. My favorite is death note, 37 episodes of awesome. Most of my favorites range from 12-52 episodes

Lol little quote
What is that pic in your avatar. I recognize it, I think it looks like izumo from blue exorcist. Then again I don't think you give a **** about BE so...

 

[asianaussie]

saten from railgun

i prefer to call her satan

stop being so pseudo-aggressive, just because your reasoning is terrible doesnt mean i hate what you like

I never said you hate what I like, I said

they do look similar, and based on what you said, their personalities are similar. Though, Izumo is more of a B***c than anything else, and as of the current arc, she's changing a lot.

saten from railgun

I never looked into those series despite hear about it and Index every now and then, I did not expect it to be so massive.

Well over 30 volumes and almost everything is translated? I'm kind of curious now.

 

[deadjames]

Anyone been keeping up with Space Dandy? If so, what are your impressions so far? I thought it started out kind of rough, but it's kind of grown on me after the first episode. It seems like it's shaping up to be one of the best comedies I've seen in a while.

30 volumes of light novel (as in, not manga)

the index manga doesn't go further than the anime, may as well just watch that if you have the time

the railgun manga is 9 or 10 volumes at the moment, it's honestly the best raildex universe media aside from the light novels themselves

It's certainly weird. I can say it's more off the walls than anything I've seen before. I skipped the first episode after getting tired of the monologue about boobs and @$$, but now that that is *mostly* gone, I find it to be highly enjoyable.

Does the anime follow the novels well? Most anime's stray away from their source material in a bull**** ending...
I'm interested in it now ^.^ Those ponytails are a universal sign of being evil/mean/b*tchy It's great.

 

[asianaussie]

she's none of those things

 

[nessokman]

F**K! THE RULE OF HAIR IS GONE AUGH!

I've been watching an anime called "Log Horizon", anyone else here seen it? It is like SAO, but it kicks SAO's butt at everything.

Yeah, I was talking about the light novels, I'm not used to seeing light novel translations up to date(as far as I can tell, it is for Index.)

I figured the light novels would be the best source to go to for the series, seeing how much has been done makes me want to check it out.

Now there's something I can agree on.

I do love Log Horizon My favorite character doesn't get enough action, or at least hasn't so far. (anime is still ongoing)
It seems to be doing well as an anime, I'm hoping there is a second season if the source material is enough. I think the novel series is ongoing.

 

[asianaussie]

there probably will be

it focuses on the actual MMORPG elements a lot more, rather than the vapid emotional saga SAO ended up as, which is probably why people like it more - it actually makes use of the setting in and of itself, rather than as a backdrop for yet another tale of love transcending logic

I've been marathoning it. The way you described it is perfect. It's more appealing as a gamer because it focuses on the MMO elements. I haven't seen many animes based on light novels get multiple seasons.

people love the raildex novels, they're one of only a few on baka-tsuki that are up and translated within weeks of their release in japan

it's getting more and more ridiculous, but the main characters continues to (literally) anchor the narrative in a somewhat plausible way

i hope you're ok with suspending disbelief

 

[nessokman]

I just realized I've never seen asianaussie post in the actual smash bros threads, same for rutger.

 

[asianaussie]

i wrote the smash 64 ruleset, own the smash 64 index thread, helped lead the short-lived 64 backroom and contributed to the current stock tier list (which i believe is a little off-base)

your point?

I mean, I don't typically go to the 64 boards, but I've never seen you on brawl/4 threads

 

[asianaussie]

because i dont play brawl and i dont care to speculate on upcoming games

Not to offend someone but I think Smooth Criminal is your stalker/leader of your fanclub.

He/she likes almost everything you post :I

That's impressive, I wouldn't have expected any light novel to get translated so fast.

Not a problem at all. I suspend my disbelief very quickly for any story with magic in it.
Hell, I don't know if I could like anime as much as I do if I couldn't enjoy something getting ridiculous every now and then.

I'll probably read some of it soon, see if I like it.

I just realized I've never seen asianaussie post in the actual smash bros threads, same for rutger.

I don't follow Smash very much anymore, I'm interested in what Smash 4 will be like, but don't see a need to hang out on those boards. I used to play Melee everyday during lunch in high school, I also helped out the Toon Link board for a while before deciding Brawl wasn't for me.

I've pretty much all but moved on to Arc System Works fighting games for now, but still enjoy some of the small communities at the Light House and here.

 

[asianaussie]

me and smooth criminal are media metropolis bros from way back when (more like a couple years lol)

something something aizen something

That's impressive, I wouldn't have expected any light novel to get translated so fast.

NT9 was released exactly 3 weeks ago, translation was completed 3 days ago? or something? idk, it's pretty wack

 

[nessokman]

I'm almost done with what is currently out of log horizon.
I might try to forget it after I get caught up and marathon the remaining eps later.

shingeki no kyojin has some issues that annoy me, as it seemingly never stops on about "Ermagerd, terrified of titans" I still love it's action. As my friend explains it, "It's a cool series, but you can't become attached to any characters but the mains, because they all die."

And I have a habit of liking minor characters. Potato girl is still alive now in SnK, as long as she lives, I will continue with this series XD

and more fairytail pics are out, I have to say it looks better than the original

[nessokman]

I finished Fullmetal. I am miserably disappointed with the end, mainly because it never confirms if Roy gets his sight back. I guess to be promoted, he would have to have his sight.Even with the philosopher's stone is was stated that they couldn't restore izumi's missing parts, so why would Roy's eyes and whatshisface's paralysis be fixed.Too many unanswered questions for me to be happy.


A lot of Disappointment I will never get over in this ending. Let's try to find something to get my mind off it before I go insane.*goes to google*

 

[Rutger]

I don't have a problem with manga FMA's ending. Sure, we never learn if Roy gets his eyesight back, but I don't think we really need to, it was never his story. It was a fine ending to Ed and Al's journey imo.

At the very least it's far better than what the first anime had. :/

Roy was a pretty major supporting character, I guess they left it open so that we can decide for ourselves and choose whatever conclusion we thought was best, sight or not.

Don't even mention that blasphemy.

 

[Rutger]

Yeah, Roy is a major character, but the story was always about Ed and Al getting their bodies back. I'm okay with Roy not getting his eyesight back by the end because the ending doesn't really have a place for it. It probably wouldn't have sat right with me if Roy was able to easily get his sight back right after watching what Ed and Al had to go through.

I like manga FMA's ending because of things like that. Overall it's a pretty happy ending, but not every problem was solved perfectly, it's the kind of ending I wanted when I started the series.

 

[Hot_ArmS]

Just finally got to starting and finishing attack on Titan. I've never been more annoyed at a main character with eren since ang in avatar

Ed and al could have used the stone if I recall, but didn't want to. I like the idea of roy getting his sight back, considering he's arguably the most badass in the entire series. Thinking about it, getting body parts back wouldn't be hard, the stone could be used to produce new parts in a similar fashion to lust and company, rather than taking his sight back from the truth.

Just finally got to starting and finishing attack on Titan. I've never been more annoyed at a main character with eren since ang in avatar

I actually kinda sorta maybe like Eren. When he's not going I to
Fits of rage and rushing blindly for
Revenge, he's pretty cool.I like Mikasa, she kept me interested. I was pretty indifferent to Armin, because he's useless in a fight and has yet to kill a single titan from my memory.

 

[nessokman]

ever notice that animes rarely kill off the main character . Well, a few exceptions

Good damn, or bad damn?
I love AOT, I have 2 volumes of the manga, and I'm keeping up with it and it's spinoff "Before The Fall".

Finished FMA: Brotherhood
Pride is the best homunculus. So much badass in a tiny body.

Damn as in faking badass as f*ck. so basically a good damn.
And FMA:Brotherhood is like..... mad awesome. Although I think Wrath is the best homunculus.

Well, pride is the oldest, and is second in charge after father himself. I would Love to have his powers.

I'd suggest reading the rest of AOT, you can find it on most manga sites. We won't have a season 2 for a while

There are still shadows at night with moonlight. Also shadows formed by fire/lightbulbs work.

April? What happens in April of importance?
