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.

    • Why does a PDF software need an audio player inside it. What is this bloat.
    • Sadly, that is the state of things. It's basically considered acceptable for any random app running on your computer to use 1+ GB of RAM, and install space, lol, no one even seems to consider that.
    • EU Commission explains why Siri AI isn't launching in the EU, and Apple is to blame by Hamid Ganji Image via Apple This week at Apple’s 2026 developers conference, the iPhone maker unveiled the upgraded Siri after more than a year of delays. The new Siri is now called Siri AI, and it's powered by Google Gemini models. While Siri AI is preparing to roll out to Apple users worldwide, the company’s EU customers might need to wait much longer before getting their hands on the new assistant. Shortly after announcing iOS 27, Apple said in a blog post that Siri AI is not coming to the EU anytime soon due to hurdles posed by the Digital Markets Act (DMA) and other regulatory requirements. To comply with the DMA in the EU, Apple apparently needs to open Siri AI to rival assistants on iOS 27 and iPadOS 27. Apple has refused to do so, which has resulted in Siri AI being delayed for its EU users. The company argues that such a move would put users’ privacy at risk. In a statement to Neowin, a European Commission spokesperson provided more details about why Siri AI will not be rolled out to Apple customers in the region. The statement first noted that the DMA does not prohibit Apple from launching its services in the EU and that the company is simply required to comply with the law. The European Commission spokesperson added that, since Apple is considered a gatekeeper under the DMA, it is “obliged to give third parties access to equivalent features as they give to its own products. Because the DMA is precisely about giving users the choice to use the product they find best suits their needs.” Moreover, the spokesperson said the Commission has been in contact with Apple, though the company “did not develop proposals for DMA compliant interoperability solutions.” The statement also clarified that companies designated as gatekeepers cannot leverage their status and products, such as operating systems, to favor their own AI services. The first public beta of iOS 27 will roll out next month, while the stable version is expected to launch this fall following the release of the iPhone 18 series. It remains unclear when Apple will be able to resolve its DMA-related compliance issues with the European Commission and bring Siri AI to its European customers.
