Found this... what do you make of it?

Isn't that the anime "Berserk"? The characters look almost identical... The dark skinned girl looks like Casca and the warrior is Guts. Guts is also well known for slicing tens of enemies in half with one swing of his GIGANTIC sword.

I put my bets on "Berserk". If it is, it looks horrible since it looks too clean and happy to be a continuation of the epic Berserk manga/anime.

It is Berserk done this time by Studio 4?c so it can't be that bad...

also you think there's anything missing from my anim? list?

It looked like Muramasa was able to tell that Ichigo has a VL inside him. I wonder if he is going to try and rip that part of of him as well......

that was Zangatsu who told Muramasa that the hollow is another soul residing in ishigo

but i think that is bizarre since the hollow said that he and Zangatsu are one/same

i guess maybe Muramasa can only call out Zanpaktou , so the hollow part got left out ?

Don't write it off totally until we see some sort of animation released from Studio 4?C. That said, it could also be cut-scenes for a game based off the original manga.

Need to read Bleach, and Kemono no Soja Erin has been sad since Jone passed away:((

Radish?

Interesting that they're putting Puck in there so maybe they're going for the full manga effect instead of the really cut down, but really awesome, version from the first anime.

New Bleach and Naruto manga out.

Great ending for the fight in bleach, felt a little short though.

and in naruto, sasuke goes super saijin in the end LOL.

What do you figure that was behind Sasuke before he slaughtered all those samurai? It looked like Naruto in Kyuubi mode, but I'm not sure why it would have been in that frame.

That is what I was wondering and thought as well. It sure did look like naruto in fox form. Maybe it was showing how lost he was in his hatred.... and how sinister and evil he has become due to it... hard to say, but can't wait to see it drawn out in anime :p

I'm wondering what the heck is it that Madara wants to talk about. Kakashi, Yamato and Naruto agains Madara would be a pretty awesome fight (if they end up fighting, but I doubt it).

And Raichu vs. Sasuke, the fight everyone was waiting for.

also you think there's anything missing from my anim? list?

Compare and contrast with my list. We only share 62 anime series. I watched 200. I think you're missing 20 or so worthwhile ones. As I state on my profile, 8+ is a must watch while 7 is a story with some loopholes but decent.

:p I forgot you only recently joined MAL. There's a neat feature that allows you to check the anime that is unique to a user's profile. If you go to my page while logged into your account, you can click on "Anime unique to arimakenshin". You can then sort the anime by the rating I gave it.

Here's a direct link: http://myanimelist.net/shared.php?u1=ytdh&...u2=arimakenshin

im going to start watching Neon Genesis Evangelion.

A bunch of people on here seem to like it, and i need more things to watch then fma, and bleach.

You should check out Eureka Seven then. Neon Genesis Evangelion is a genre defining anime series. If you enjoy NGE, then look into RahXephon (one of my favorite all time) and Akira.

I was kinda hoping for recommendations.

I personally can't stand Neon Genesis Evangelion. It's convoluted and the main character is a whiny ass (in my opinion) and I can't stand him. There are much better animes to check out I think. I'd suggest some if you're interested.

I started reading Bleach manga series just to see what the hype and fuss is all about. It's not original but it's certainly an entertaining read. The one thing I'm finding annoying is the random Mexican influences in the battles (Vol. 28+?). Very awkward transitions to say the least. It certainly is nowhere near a 9+/10 manga but it definitely is enjoyable to anyone who enjoys alot of action with a tinge of drama/romance.

Neon Genesis Evangelion might not be the best anime series ever created but it is definitely in the top 10 most influential and genre defining. The fusion of mecha, psychological horror, fatally flawed characters brought together with a style not seen in anime makes it unique.

^Ever checked out Soukyuu no Fafner? I've seen the first 2 episodes and so far only those 2. To me those looked like a direct copy of NGE and RahXephon mixed together, which is the reason why I only watched 2 episodes.

Granted. But it's just not something I can get into, when the main character is so annoying I can only watch an episode in bits of 2-3 minutes at a time. I also don't think it should be suggested to someone who is just getting into anime as one of their first to watch, for the very reasons you listed. I only know one other person that shares that opinion with me though. *shrug* Imo none of the OVA's or movies improve it in any way either.

im on Neon genesis episode 8 now, and i cant blame anyone for not liking it.

it dosnt seem attention grabbing or anything, but 8 episodes in and theres a bit of interest growing. seems there spending a long time character building first.

    • Genocide is intent to exterminate and both the Israeli government AND its people openly declare, even boast about their intent to exterminate Arabs. This society of sick psychopaths has even made songs about it. Zionist means believing Israel should exist as an religious ethno-state where only Jews have rights and everyone else is second class citizen. As for the blood libel thing, we already know zionists get off on killing children. We also know Israel is a safe heaven for all the pedophiles and rapists of the world. Honestly, after what we saw in the Epstein files, I wouldn't put anything past this depraved death cult. Of course all atrocities committed by tHe wOrLds mOsT mOrAl aRmY are always "unproven or taken out of context". Unfortunately for them, their soldiers are dumb enough to leave a trail of their war crimes all over social media. Then again, when you live in a society that's obsessed with death and destruction, posting videos of yourself in the act of ransacking homes and desecrating religious monuments earns you brownie points I guess. Israel is the only society in the world where people come out on the roads for the right to **** prisoners. Also claiming that the BBC said this and AP said that without so much as a link has gotten me curious. Are all zionists this dumb? I really hope you aren't getting paid for this because this is some low effort propaganda.
    • Microsoft is bringing big performance improvements to OneDrive on Mac by Taras Buria Microsoft has announced a major update for the OneDrive client on macOS. Today, the company released version 26.098, promising significantly faster sync, optimized CPU usage, a smaller memory footprint, and better energy efficiency. In a newly published blog post, Microsoft acknowledged that changes implemented in OneDrive for Mac in 2022 brought some unwanted side effects. Due to architectural changes and the need to keep the OneDrive sync engine unchanged, Microsoft created a hidden cache folder. With time, it would cause reliability and performance issues for customers. Now, Microsoft is ditching the old engine for native sync, delivering a faster, more reliable experience. As a result of this change, OneDrive for Mac now integrates more deeply into the operating system, offers about two times faster sync performance, and uses fewer system resources. While the hidden folder still exists, the app only uses it to store files that have not been uploaded yet, link file types, and macOS-related packages. In total, even when holding hundreds of files, the temporary folder does not take more than a couple of megabytes on the drive. Besides optimizations, the new sync engine enables external drive support, allowing you to keep your OneDrive folder on a removable drive (it should meet all the requirements). Microsoft is now rolling out the updated OneDrive client for Microsoft 365 Insiders. To check if your Mac has the new sync engine, go to the About tab and check the app version. If it ends with something like 26H, you are on the new engine. If not, you are on the old one. Microsoft says it will take a few weeks to complete the rollout to Insiders, but it won't say when to expect the update in the stable channel. Big performance updates for OneDrive on Mac came right after Microsoft confirmed it would soon kill document editing in Office 2019 for Mac due to expiring certificates. This change will force users to look for alternatives or switch to Microsoft 365.
    • Sorry but that makes no sense. What does using the same laptop have to do with anything? 
    • Playground drops 30 minutes of Fable gameplay, shows off life sim and morality system by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Playground Games gave fantasy RPG fans a new look at its Fable reboot last Sunday at the Xbox Games Showcase. While that was a short cinematic trailer revealing the main villain of the storyline, played by Hayley Atwell, today, the development team released an entire gameplay demo to show off the game in action. There is some combat and action near the end of it, but most of the demo is focused on the game's NPC simulation, relationships, choices players can make, and the complex reputation system. The studio is touting over 1,000 hand-crafted NPCs who have jobs, homes, routines they follow in their villages and outskirts, and a memory of what is going on in the world and what actions the player has done. All of these are voiced by real people too. The demo begins with a short interaction with a butcher who wants to kill a talking pig named Colin. The protagonist chooses to save Colin by paying the butcher a bunch of gold for his troubles, giving the hero a rise in reputation for being shrewd, merciful, and virtuous. There were also options to simply let Colin get killed or even fight the butcher for the pig instead of paying him. How NPCs judge the player depends on how they interact with the world. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=doV0yq4kAP0 Later, the demo shows off how purchasing and managing businesses work, where players can hire employees, change their wages, tweak the price of the shop items, and reap profits if they do well. Different NPCs react differently to each type of reputation the player is touting. One shop owner jacks up prices by 80% just because the player is rich and owns businesses. The demo even shows the player deciding to attack random villagers and causing a ruckus in the streets, turning the hero into a criminal. This is where the magic combat systems are shown off, where the player can teleport, turn enemies into chickens, sword-fight, and more. "This is how you’ll build an extraordinary life in Fable. It’s all about shades of grey – it’s not us or the game telling you what is good and what is bad," says Dan Greer, Lead Game Designer. "With the Living Population, it’s the NPCs themselves judging your actions." Fable is releasing across PC and Xbox Series X|S on February 23, 2027. Premium Edition owners will be able to play starting on February 18 instead. Xbox Game Pass subscribers will also be able to jump in at launch for no extra cost.
