[Official] Anime/Manga Thread

A cute ending for Kimi ni Todoke...and Pin was just Pin again. :p

Ooooh, can't wait to watch it :happy:

Watched Kowarekake no Orgel last night, an dōjin OVA with a story similar to Chobits! Animation/artwork was definitely above par for a self-published OVA; nicely detailed, fluid and vibrant (the backdrops are just awesome). However, the character development/human emotion within is what makes this shine and recently, a side-story has been announced; which I'm looking forward to now :D

And finished Sora no Woto just now. I was expecting the "moe" characters to be overpowering after watching the first few episodes but as I went through, it turned out to be a really nice series about friendship, music and war, with a hint of mecha. The soundtrack by Michiru Oshima was superb (Y) :yes:

Did anyone watched "Eden of the East the Movie I King of Eden", I just got it but haven't had any chance of watching it yet.

Had it for a few days now, just haven't got round to watching it. Might do it tonight.

RapeLay is not that bad, there are some worse things on TV.

The funny thing is Japan has one of the lowest rates of rape in the world (1.9 per 100,000). The CNN report paints the pornographic game as if it might cause people to go out and do such horrible acts in real life. The woman's rights group needs to learn about the Streisand effect.

Nothing is more anti intellectual than a group tries to control what other people regulate the morality of artwork.

It's just hit me that they'll have to ban Evangelion and Code Geass in the UK after the 6th and many many more if upskirts and deemed illegal.

Depends if they will re-evaluate existing anime under the new law, Evangelion 2.0 will be screened in May at London.

I found an amazing anime streaming site. It streams in 480p and 720p. Enjoy: http://www.animedreaming.com/

Why don't you just keep your stuff and Truecrypt an external hard drive? It's such a waste to delete hundreds of hours worth of stuff you painstakingly searched for.

Well, well. Look who was one of the writers behind Ghost in the Shell 2nd GiG: http://myanimelist.n.../Okamura_Tensai

He also was one of the writers for Cowboy Bebop, the creator of the Darker than Black manga, Samurai Champloo and one episode of Ouran High School Host Club. He also one of the key animators of the Ghost in the Shell and was behind some of the episodes of an interesting romantic comedy that had quite a successful run from 1988 to 1992 called Yawara! I can't find any completed subs or translated manga. v_v

I just realized that the most popular Japanese animation manga and anime in the West side of the world are greatly influenced by a select group of people, such as Kenji Kamiyama (Ghost in the Shell, Higashi no Eden, Serei no Moribito).

    • Agreed. And this is a great discount offer! It's a shame that there's no discount offer option for people who would be fine subscribing for a year-long term, but pay monthly.
    • A Warhammer 40K racing game and a chess roguelike are free to claim on the Epic Games Store by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The Epic Games Store has returned to its standard giveaway procedures after weeks of mystery freebies. The latest drop is replacing last week's Rogue Waters and Songs of Conquest games and has brought in a double giveaway offering Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks and The Ouroboros King. As always, the game is yours to add permanently to your Epic Games Store library within the next seven days. From the duo, Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks lands from developer Caged Element, and it's a racing game that was only released last year. The title has you piloting Ork buggies, tanks, and aircraft modeled after the popular tabletop miniatures. The focus is on multiplayer mayhem, offering multiple game modes that have you fighting other players as everyone tries to survive and get across finish lines or destroy mechs. Crossplay support between PC and consoles has now arrived as part of a free update, too, giving a boost to matchmaking times for this multiplayer-focused title. If racing carnage isn't your thing, then The Ouroboros King offers tactics. The indie title is a mashup of chess and standard roguelike experience, letting players create their own armies to defeat an enemy faction, all on the familiar checkered board. There is a procedurally generated map, pieces with special abilities, relics that bend the game's rules to make overpowered builds, and more. The newly available Warhammer 40K Speed Freeks and The Ouroboros King giveaways on the Epic Games Store are set to run until June 11, giving PC gamers seven days to claim the latest offer. Once this closes out, a new freebie will take its place on the same day. Don't forget that mobile gamers can check out the Epic Game Store's weekly giveaways on Android and iOS to grab a freebie there as well.

    • The most consequential argument in technology right now is not about which model is smartest or which chip is fastest. It is about whether the entire enterprise is a generational revolution or the largest financial bubble ever inflated — and the unsettling answer, increasingly, is that it may be both at once.,,,, https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318138/20260610/ai-revolution-ai-bubble-trillion-dollar-question-splitting-wall-street-silicon-valley.htm This is a very good read.  For what it is worth, I agree with the answer to the question.
