Just finished FMA:B, sweet ending that wrapped everything up nicely and seeing how all the remaining characters progressed in the future was a emotional yet nice touch (Y)

10/10 from start to finish and in my all-time top five anime without a doubt :happy:

What do you think of the first anime series?

What do you think of the first anime series?

I've never watched it. I was going to start the first series just before Brotherhood began to air but decided not to as I read Brotherhood was more faithful to the original manga. Maybe I'll watch the first series somewhere down the line for comparison.

O_O When are you going to watch Cowboy Bebop too?

I'd like to know aswell! :yes:

Do you know if there is any new news regarding the new season? I haven't heard anything in a while :(

The new season about Roberta has started to air in Japan and subs are out :)

You've also got a PM about the omake ;)

Is it a waste of time? Or is it something that actually warrants a watch? It has mediocre reviews and everyone has said something about the ending.

I thought it was a good concept, somewhat unique as well.

As long as you can pay attention, you will get the ending.

It is worth seeing.

Can't say more, haven't seen it in years.

Finished Baccano. Absolutely loved it. i couldn't spot a character I didn't like in a way (except Szilard :p) I think it was episode 12 which was where everything was brought together and was literally action packed. The ending to the core 13 episodes was brilliant with Miria and Isaac. Literally ROFL'd.

Not sure what to watch now. Might watch one of Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagaan or Mushishi or Planetes.

Holy crapness! :cry:

Rurouni Kenshin Live Action Movie ?in Production"

Japanese actor Takeru Satoh, known best for a series of roles in drama, has been identified as the most likely actor to play the role of Himura Kenshin in a rumoured movie adaptation of hit Shonen Jump bakumatsu era samurai manga Rurouni Kenshin.

One unnamed source connected with the film reports that the Rurouni Kenshin film is going ahead, and that Satoh has the role.

Satoh has ?just the right look, and there aren?t many actors with the right image for Kenshin? he says. Satoh himself has already trained in cinematic swordplay for an earlier samurai role.

Another source supposedly validates this:

?Back when it had just ended serialisation there was talk of a movie adaptation, but back then manga being adapted to film wasn?t something you really saw much, unlike now.

Add to this the fact that CG technology wasn?t very good? CG tech has come a long way since then. As a result, the movie was suddenly decided upon recently.?

Oh man, this could be just totally bad ass or just totally ruin the chances this will ever come back lol. I would love for this to come across in the fashion a lot of older samurai movies have done, and I sure hope they don't make it cheesy.

Read my previous reply to you? :p But not have been obvious but it was a reply to your post :)

You should definitely watch as it's by the same director plus it has those cameos. You're gonna laugh ones you notice them :D

I LOL'd at the end of episode 13 as well. Isaac and Miria all of a sudden noticing they haven't aged throughout the years :rofl: The both of them are funny as hell :p

    • FWIW, I've been using Helium on Linux and Windows since the first time it was mentioned here. Actually, maybe a day or 3 before, as I searched for it when I saw it mentioned on the MX Linux forums. Haven't had a single issue on either OS. Not bad for a beta.
    • See up until a few years ago y'all could get away with simply denying your war crimes, pretending it never happened. Unfortunately for you, it's the 2020s and Israel's genocide has been livestreamed in real time. You have to be dumber than a rock to think anyone still believes your propaganda. See the cat is already out of the bag. The world already knows who you are so do yourself a favor and just drop the facade. Bet it gets real tiring keep track of all the lies. Take some inspiration from Israeli ministers who boast on live TV they like massacring civilians. Every zionist accusation is after all a confession.
    • He's just reporting what Microsoft posted. https://msmessagecenter.com/MC1381119 It just means that Windows Defender updates will no longer be bundled into the monthly Cumulative Windows security update and will now be a separate download. They'll still be on Microsoft update of course but now they can be released faster.
    • Apple announces iOS 27 with no changes to the list of supported iPhones by Taras Buria At WWDC 2026 in Cupertino, Apple announced iOS 27, the next mobile operating system for compatible iPhones. The update focuses on tweaking and improving last year's iOS 26, particularly in areas like app launch time, Liquid Glass design, and more. Additionally, Apple has reworked Apple Maps with a significantly enhanced Flyover view for a much more realistic view. Apple also promises better performance, smarter search, new Health features, new parental controls, and more. The most important part is that iOS 27 is compatible with all iPhones that can run iOS 26. That means that even the seven-year-old iPhone 11 can run iOS 27 (supposedly better than iOS 26). iOS 27 will be available this Fall, with the first developer betas expected later today. You can follow the live stream here.
