well yeah cause 1st gen S30 Z's do go for around ?50K each.

More effort could have been put in to make it look real enough.

[Jamushroom Veteran]

Lin has strong determination in his favour, don't think he'll be dying any time soon (Y)

Indeed :D Was very noticable in the previous episode. The conversation between him and Greed was nicely done imo :)

[SidVicious]

Funny. :p

yeah i guess they could have used wrecked parts but then people would notice that too

Funny. :p

That conversation was awesome. Greed finally showed weakness and Lin took over. The next episode will hopefully be intense. My friend watched the last episode with me, only have ever read the manga, and was amazed at how accurate it was. Almost every other scene he was like, " Dude, it was drawn like this. This is so amazing. They haven't changed a bit!"

[RadishTM Veteran]

Full of awesome :D

You're more then welcome and I'm sure we'll have more recommendations. Like for instance: Freedom, Tokyo Magnitude 8.0 and Rideback :)

Also, regarding your question: check your PM ;)

Thanks again, much appreciated :D

What show are you talking about with that conversation?..

Full of awesome :D

I downgraded Eve no Jikan to 8/10 after looking back at it. It's nothing special. The only redeeming factor about that anime series is its inclusion of Isaac Asimov's three robotic laws. Everything else is taken from True Tears and mixed with some silly drama.

[Jamushroom Veteran]

^Those laws are also used in Meguriau Sekai which is made by the same director who made Eve no Jikan :)

@Radish?: WIN!

@shakey: BONES would be happy to hear that, haha :p

You mean Mizu no Kotoba :p

[Jamushroom Veteran]

^Yeap :p Forgot to change the name though I did use the correct url. I was thinking about the wrong title while I was writing it :p

I wonder when a new, intelligent franchise comes out... There's nothing but pop culture, recursive parodies and fantasies. More world politics and action that are relevant to current times like Full Metal Panic! (Second Raid), Black Lagoon and others.

Have you watched Dennou Coil?

i don't see anything like that happening any time soon Japan seems to be making what ever sells best in Japan right now i don't think they even think of the export market much anymore.

[deletedxyz]

Just for a post's sake, Code Geass and Death Note are not intelligent anime series. They focus too much on drama and terrible, predictable plot twists that remove the amazing potential they both had.

I'm struggling to go past the first episodes. It's incredibly hollow since the first few episodes is the chase of a silly virus characterized by fluffy bunny syndrome. I think I will be dropping it if I can't get past another few episodes soon when I have the interest.

'Tis a pity.

It does take a a while to open up but it's worth it IMO.

And I'll leave this here :blink: :rofl:

i admit sunrise could have done better in R2 but as a fellow field commander i have the utmost respect for Lulu being able to take a small rebel movement and turn it into a full blown army.

'Tis a pity.

I for one am enjoying the new season but it could do with another show like Hayate The Combat Butler or a new season of it.

And I'll leave this here :blink: :rofl:

That thing better not be there when i go or else i shall turn it into light.

Lulu does not turn anything into anything. She... I mean he only exists as another Light, from Death Note. He is the glorification of teenage naiveity that is gobbled up by the 13-18 demographic. No one should respect any political or strategic action by any of the characters. It's popular in every anime series gears towards the "older teens". Sunrise merely turned Gundam into something of a spinoff. There's nothing special, unique or outstanding. The anime series is the epitome of looks without substance. It's such a pity that you see such high production values go into teenage drivel.

The beginning of Dennou Coil is a bit slow and I had a hard time with it too, but if you keep watching it the show picks up steam and I really liked it actually.

Code geass is less the gundam spin off and more Warhammer 40,000 century 1 the anim? with the birth of the God emperor.(basically it's what would happen if you tried to apply plot to warhammer40K)

but what you get with death note is nothing more than something to get the fangirls all wet and excited.

and just to pick at gundam. Gundam is just physicsles schi-fi at it's best legs and useless in space also most of the factions you see imn gundam anim? are usually Nazis or the UN and terrorists.

So I take it you don't like Code Geass and Death Note? :unsure:

[RadishTM Veteran]

A heartfelt episode of Kimi no Todoke with Chizu-chan's feelings coming to a halt :cry:

Going back into the past with her childhood was hilarious though, "Tohru! Mushi!" :laugh: :happy:

[Azusa]

So I take it you don't like Code Geass and Death Note? :unsure:

I love Code Geass but hate Death Note.

[bob_loblaw]

Holy crap, anyone catch the new Naruto manga?

Sasuke Vs Kakashi!
