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?

Radish, by the way, knowing my taste in anime. Nodame Cantabile, will I like it?

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.

    • Microsoft is bringing big performance improvements to OneDrive on Mac

      By MacDaddyAz · Posted

      It does invite Linux because MS should have been improving their products all along these years instead chose to ignore the users now this year they’re making all of these improvements to their products where as Linux doesn’t have this kind of problems in fact it has gotten so good I can even play Windows games in Steam that I no longer ever needed Windows to carry on with my life, unlike you still use Windows and chose to try beat down down those who don't use Windows because they love their LG TV. (Surprisingly I actually own a 55” LED LG TV and it has been going strong for almost 14 years, longer than any Sony TV”)
    • Nvidia's GeForce NOW summer sale drops prices for Ultimate and Premium memberships

      By sphbecker · Posted

      As much as I love owning my own hardware, it's hard to argue with the value. I'm not a huge gamer, I'd actually be interested in a cheaper plan with limited monthly hours, or even a pay-by-the-hour plan.
    • Euro-Office must default to ODF to be considered "genuinely European", LibreOffice argues

      By leonsk29 · Posted

      Well, they (LibreOffice/The Document Foundation) are bitchy and whiny, yes, but they're right, at least this time. It doesn't make sense to market something as "free and open source to thwart dependency on foreign companies' software" but at the same time, using the formats of said companies (Microsoft) by default. That way, you are changing nothing, essentially, you're just using another UI. We all know that users just use the defaults and almost never change them. I'm not saying they should drop other formats altogether, but they shouldn't default to the thing they're trying to run away from in the first place. If you're gonna do something, just go all the way in, don't stop in the middle, IMO. Otherwise, shut up and move along.
