[Official] Anime/Manga Thread


Recommended Posts

I only managed to find episodes upto 4th March which is titled "Activate the Forbidden Jutsu" (episode number 150). My guess is arc might go on until around episode 155-160 :(

Oh no, that is bad news :(

Just finished watching History's Strongest Disciple Kenichi. Good series, don't ask why or how I ended up finding it. :laugh:

I have to say Nijima is one of the funniest characters in an anime I've ever seen.

Moving onto The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya now.

Awesome:

TvTropes all well known anime series and you get lost for hours.

Even though Ghost in the Shell: SAC features a fantastic cast, this is what made me feel like I was watching an intelligent series:

In a big way. Ghost in the Shell has been classified by some commentators as Neo-Cyberpunk or Post-Cyberpunk rather than classic 1980s Cyberpunk, in that the protagonists of GITS work for the government and hunt down terrorists instead of being urban guerillas and streetpunks fighting against governments and mega-corps. Most noticeably, while GITS shows a global community still suffering from the aftereffects of a third and fourth World War, the society in those nations that we get to see has not utterly collapsed and segregated into corporate wage-slaves living in gated communities ("arcologies") on the one hand and the rest of the population living in dismal slums outside the system. The Japan of GITS, while being something of a police state with government and intelligence service controlling the propaganda permeating the media, still has an urban middle class, nature resorts and traditional society. Even the poor and the refugees in their ghetto are not "invisible" and "falling through the cracks" (except in a social sense). Instead, cyberbrain interconnectedness is widespread and surveillance by public cameras, spy satellites and the Net is all-pervasive.

History's Strongest Disciple Kenpachi was a good series. I esp liked the fight at the end where he used all styles respective to each of his masters :pinch:

There is some damn detailed info in there. I'm gonna get lost for a while, thanks (Y)

TVTropes is great. I spent so much time on it last semester during one of my classes looking up tropes for series' I have watched and other random things.

This is still one of my favorite pages to visit just for the hilarious content linked on it.

Guess I've got something nice in store for me this evening: Pale Cocoon :D I've also gotten Yasuhiro Yoshiura's even earlier work called Mizu no Kotoba which I'll be watching after Pale Cocoon :)

be prepared to be depressed for the rest of your life knowing there will never be a computer as awesome as the one in Pale Cocoon

Turns out that both animes where really interesting. Definitely a recommendation if you like Yasuhiro Yoshiura's Eve no Jikan :D

@yurithedragonhalf: Haven't gotten depressed :p

That's for sure. Yasuhiro Yoshiura is really making great progress with his own, kinda unique stories. Can't wait to see what Eve no Jikan's 2nd season has in store for us :D

Whoa, Pale Cocoon looks good!

Anime News Network is such a useful website (Y)

Can't wait to see what Eve no Jikan's 2nd season has in store for us :D

I really do hope there will be a second season, the barrier between androids/humans getting broken down was touching (Y)

^That means you haven't watched CENCOROLL (jumped into my mind the minute I read your post). I'd recommend to watch that anime as well. Prepare to get blown away by a piece of work directed and animated by one and the same guy :)

@Radish?: It was indeed :) Yasuhiro Yoshiura has really won me over with that bit. I'm gonna be watching all current episodes non-stop soon :D Gonna be interesting to see the extra footage from the movie btw.

    • 2 was a fun game but felt a bit shallow, like not enough there. I hope this expansion fixes that.
    • 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 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.

    • 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.
