I also dislike anime that have extremely metrosexual guys such as Code Geass and Gundam SEED. They are so feminine that I cannot stand seeing them pose in awkward hip-to-the-side stances while proclaiming to defeat their enemies.

Now right there is a point we can agree on (Y)

also look up Pigeon Blood.

No, I'm afraid of your suggestions :no:

:p

also..

NGE = Giant mecha beating the crap out of aliens the Christianity-in-your-face parts and complete drug trip of a final episode is just to make you feel a little bit more intelligent

Code Geass = Roman General's wet dream

Gundam SEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED = the other Gundam that girls like.

I've watched the first two episodes of Winter Sonata. Animation production, dialogue, music .... It's all executed perfectly (Y)

This is definitely going to pull at the heartstrings :pinch:

Radish?

I think you'll enjoy it. If you like classical music, it's a bonus (Y) Though I recommend seeing the live-action drama instead of the anime, mainly due to the actors.

Radish?

^Am I glad that I'm keeping my figurine collection at a minimum.

@Radish?: Is Kimi ni Todoke any good?

I wish I had more time in a day to watch anime. School isn't giving me any free time currently due to projects which need to be finished next week. There are loads of shows I still need to watch and there are also shows constantly being added to my "plan to watch" (I haven't updated this list on MyAnimeList in a long while).

The new bleach manga was sort of a let down. Yes, it was just pushing story forward, but the translation or just scripting in general was horrible. Everything felt generic and like it was supposed to be some horrible comedy bit. It just could have been done much better I think.

Naruto Shippuuden anime is out as well. Time to watch the saddest episode.

Hey masked, I was thinking, did you like Saikano? Just curious

I love it. If one looks past the simple boy-girl cutesy story, s/he can see a beautiful post apocalyptic story that grips one's heart and refuses to let go.

It's art, especially the narration, which made it stand out in my eyes. Teenagers forced to take on roles that they never asked for... I could relate to the guy too since I could easily place myself in his shoes if I ever was in a disastrous situation (minus the affair he has).

I gave it a 7/10 because it wasn't consistent through all its episodes. Sometimes, it felt a bit forced.

im sure i can name them all...

:o You must be quite fit if you swim through all of that stuff in your room everyday. :p

Also i think you may enjoy "Mahou Shoujo Lyrical Nanoha"

I'll take a look at in the coming weeks.

It looks like Shakagun no Shana meets Fate/Stay Night... *remembers the time I dropped F/S N because I couldn't stand the absolutely naive view the male protagonist had on his female knight... "SAAAYBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!, I'll protect you even though I am absolutely million times weaker than yoouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!"*

You know what's an anime that I'm not ashamed to say that I liked?

...

....

..... Kodocha.

The manga was fantastic (basically a much younger version of Kare Kano). It was very Shoujo at times but still felt refreshing and wasn't too outlandish. I have yet to finish the anime since it's so long.

errr the mistake you made with F/S Night is that you watched it the visual novel is a lot better.

Are the visual novels really that much better than the anime when it comes to TYPE-MOON? I really enjoyed Shingetsutan Tsukihime. The soundtrack was sublime and had a really eerie yet sexy female protagonist.

    • Should Microsoft be forced to stop promoting Edge over other browsers?

      By cleverclogs · Posted

      I haven't paid for windows since windows 8. So I guess I would be happy to pay for a new version if it meant seeing fewer adverts (none) or product pushes. But that applies to _any_ service or OS.

    • Save 35% on Sony's SS-CS5M2 3-way high-res bookshelf speakers

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      Save 35% on Sony's SS-CS5M2 3-way high-res bookshelf speakers by Taras Buria Sony is currently offering a big discount on its SS-CS5M2 bookshelf speaker, saving you 35% on a set of high-quality audio equipment. The SS-CS5M2 is a passive 3-way bookshelf speaker with a 5.12-inch woofer, a 25 mm soft-dome tweeter, and a 19 mm super tweeter. This design allows different drivers to handle different parts of the sound spectrum for a clearer, more detailed audio when watching movies or listening to music. The compact cabinet size allows you to place these speakers on shelves, desks, or stands, making them a practical choice for apartments, bedrooms, and small living rooms. Despite its compact size, the SS-CS5M2 delivers up to 100 W of power. Note that since the speakers are passive, you will need an amplifier to drive them. However, if you do, you can use them for high-resolution music, thanks to a claimed frequency response of 53 Hz - 50 kHz. It is able to extend so far high in the spectrum as a result of those super tweeters. While they will work with most amplifiers and AV receivers, Sony says this pair is a perfect match for its AV receivers, such as STRDH190, 590, 790, or 1000.

    • EU Commission explains why Siri AI isn't launching in the EU, and Apple is to blame

      By AltecXP · Posted

      So they somehow expect Apple to easily make it so that if I install say DeepSeek that DS can then handle all the tasks that Siri would be doing while integrated in the OS? That sounds like just rediculous.
    • AMD 9070XT

      By Mockingbird · Posted

      For ray-tracing, the Radeon RX 9070 XT is better than the GeForce RTX 5070, but worse than the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti The Radeon RX 9070 XT is similar to the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti in rasterization Both AMD and NVIDIA have had serious issues with drivers in the past, so I can't say that one is better or worse than the other. Yes. AMD has better support Linux than does NVIDIA. Use Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) to uninstall NVIDIA's drivers before installing AMD's drivers. That's up to you. Supplies of memory is unpredictable because AI using up a lot of memory. As a result, there is a lot of volatility in video card prices.
