General anime thread/Anime (and manga) New OP,Edits Coming Soon!

[Sehnsucht]

I read a bit of Berserk a few weeks back and forgot Shingeki even existed after that.

You're likely to forget everything even exists after reading Berserk, though.

 

[nessokman]

Is never forget one of my ongoing series

 

[Vinylic.]

That's not much of a problem though.

 

[:mad:]

Nah there was a new chapter of Non Non Biyori that day. That was a good day.

 

[nessokman]

I stopped caring about soul eater not! I think I'll just watch the anime later, I can't be bothered to reread a spinoff with no real action. The original had so eh awesome fights, but NOT disappoints me.

Think how awesome black blood from SE would be. Hardening your blood to make yourself impossible to cut, and shooting needles of your own blood. Though the insanity that comes with it is a drawback.

 

[:mad:]

I dream of a day where the conversation doesn't go back to something boring like ol' Shingeki, Soul Eater, or that exorcist dreck.

 

[GwJ]

This show's better than your favorite show.

Spoiler

It might not be, but it's really good and one of my favorites.

 

[nessokman]

So, what site do you people use to get anime/manga news? I use crunchyroll.

 

[GwJ]

I don't regularly check anime news. If I'm bored and have already refreshed my usuals 10-20 times, I MAY check Crunchyroll news once, but that's it. I get my anime news just from news trickling down the line until someone mentions it to me or I see it on a message board.

 

[nessokman]

I check at a certain time every day. News I am waiting for like a release date for an anime in looking forward to, or a confirmation of a season 2 on others. Sometimes I just look for cool crap

 

[:mad:]

I've been meaning to watch Tsuritama for awhile now, but quite a few others have taken priority. What's it like?

I just use MAL, it's pretty all purpose and the mods post the important stuff. New Yuru Yuri soon so needless to say, anime has been saved.

 

[nessokman]

God knowing me, I'll miss a day on news, and articles along the lines of:
-Attack On titan season 2 gets green light

-Soul Eater gets "Brotherhood" type remake

-new trailer and exact release dates for soul eater not anime confirmed

-Blue exorcist anime gets remake (never actually gonna happen)

-The Seven Deadly sins to get anime adaptation

Save Tsuritama for a time when you're in a really good mood and you'll be in a state of pure bliss for the entirety of it. I forget the season when I first watched it, but I rewatched it last Spring as the school semester was coming to a close and it was so wonderful. The wonderful weather with the longer days and warm but not hot days was the perfect environment to watch the show.

The show itself is about a kid named Yuki (orange hair) who moved to an island called Enoshima. He has social anxiety which causes him to make some odd faces to people when he gets anxious, but he meets Haru (blonde) and black-haired-guy (it's been a while) at the school and they do what anybody would do in a show with such vivid colors and water everywhere - they fish.

Watch it in late spring or in the early summer and you'll thank me later.

 

[nessokman]

Found an anime series called
Noragami, (hope I spelled it right)
It is by the same animation studios behind both FMA,Soul Eater, Space Dandy and others. Anyone seen it? And is it any good?

 

[GwJ]

It's eh. It's one of the shows I'm still watching this season if that means anything. It's about a god with just about no reputation trying to become a bigwig god.

 

[:mad:]

I could use a feel good show, I'll take your advice and watch it during Spring when everything is bright and happy.

I'm following Noragami and it's not all that good. Yato (the main god) is the only decent character. With its 8 current episodes, they haven't done a good job of world building. It feels like they barely touched on the inner workings of this separate existence. Hiyori and Yukine are both incredibly bratty, but they'll probably throw some character development into the mix in a later season. It switches between comedy and drama far too often, I can't take it seriously at times. This show is too big for just 12 episodes. That being said, it's a 4/10 in my book as of episode 8. Just shy of average. You'll probably like it though.

I was apparently offered a 1-month free trial of hulu plus, so I'm about run into animes galore until March 27. Started with psycho-pass since the characters were designed by Akira Amano. The opening's surreal, but the rest is good. I'm interested in seeing more until the end. After that, it's sankarea, eureka seven AO, deadman wonderland, and....squid girl. I'll be watching what mad recommended after and see how it goes.

Here's some random image to brighten the day.

 

[Sinz]

Kill la kills hype train keeps on going and going. when will it run out of fuel

march 27 is my birthday. coincidence? I THINK NOT!

 

[:mad:]

I've always preferred the gif version

Ah, back when the show was good.

 

[GwJ]

Counting down the days...

 

[nessokman]

Counting down the days...

Lol, that's how I an with blue exorcist volumes being released.

I might stop buying manga all together, I have 43 volumes if various mangas, I might just start reading all ofthwn online and forget buying them

 

[GwJ]

Even if you're not gonna read them again after online, still consider buying them to support them. I do that with anime I like.

I read most series multiple times, it's something I can do with manga that I can't with anything else. The small details you miss the first time make it fun to read again. I tend to worry about having too much. Is say I've supported my authors a lot
12 psyren
17 soul eater
4 attack on titan
2 fairytail
2 bakuman
10 blue exorcist

(planning to sell psyren for $60, half what I bought them for)

 

[GwJ]

How come you want to sell one of your manga series? I couldn't imagine ever selling any of my manga or anime even if they're bad.

It is a bad series, meh art, meh story, I lost interest and know how it will end (16 total volumes) my friend loves the series, so he'll make better use of it

 

[Smooth Criminal]

...why sell it to him/her if they love it, then? Just give it to them free of charge. Kind of lame that you'd cop a buck from a friend like that, especially when it comes to something easily shared/transferable like a book. IMO, of course. Not saying you're a bad person or anything, but I'd feel scummy for doing it. I'd rather give my books up to people or places that wouldn't turn around and sell it, so that they could be (potentially) passed on to others.

Well, I didn't originally want to sell them to him, I just said I was thinking of it and he said he wanted to buy them. I was originally going to sell them online.

I need money is one of the main reasons I'm selling it, aside from being bored with the series.

 

[asianaussie]

@ GwJ i hope you're reflecting upon the events in your life that eventuated in you buying ****ing To-Love-Ru

goddamn, son

 

[:mad:]

Nah I respect that. You do you, GwJ.

 

[GwJ]

To Love Ru is top tier harem.

 

[deadjames]

I may have to check that out. I've yet to see any harem that's actually good other than the Tenchi series and Ouran High School Host Club.

 

[asianaussie]

love hina is gud

 

[deadjames]

Haven't seen it.

 

[asianaussie]

dont watch it, read it

 

[deadjames]

Ok, I'll have to look into it.

 

[Vinylic.]

The manga is better than the anime. Much more entertainment when flipping page by page.

 

[:mad:]

So I'm 60 chapters into Vagabond. It's pretty good.

 

[nessokman]

I hate waiting for new chapters of my manga.. Blue exorcist and Shingeki should have new chapters this weekend.(I think)

Getting back into bakuman. Might start psycho pass

 

[deadjames]

I hear that, I just got volume 5 of The Disappearance of Nagato Yuki-chan after it got delayed for three months.
