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:

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.

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

      Thanks, Sony and Nintendo, you effectively killed platform-agnostic gaming. Long gone are the days when you could wish to play a specific game on whatever platform you were. Now, you have to buy the hardware just to play that single game. What, you're only interested in THAT game and nothing more? Bad luck, suck it and buy our console.

    • "CRAZIER than ever!" Crazy Taxi: World Tour is officially coming soon

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      "CRAZIER than ever!" Crazy Taxi: World Tour is officially coming soon by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Sega announced it is working on bringing back some of its classic franchises in 2023, and while it has taken some time, the company finally gave fans a look at one of these new projects at the Xbox Games Showcase today, which turned out to be a brand-new Crazy Taxi entry. Watch the debut trailer above, which has snippets of gameplay in between the cinematic bits while blasting a track from The Offspring. Dubbed Crazy Taxi World Tour, this installment is aptly being described as being "CRAZIER than ever!" The director behind the original, Kenji Kanno, is helming this new entry as well, which will come with access to five new cities to drive in, competitive multiplayer modes, a vehicle customization system, and more. Axel is returning as a protagonist as well, but this time a mystery driver is offering him the opportunity to take his adventures to the streets in other countries. This will involve Axel chasing down masked villains that have somehow stolen his taxi, which means even more extreme missions and challenges to overcome. "From transporting passengers at top speed to tackling unique side missions and odd jobs across dynamic maps, there are countless ways to drive crazy and rake in big money," says Sega about this new installment after over 20 years. "Perform outrageous drifts, catch insane air, and drive at crazy speeds across five different cities as you work to deliver passengers and complete a variety of missions and challenges." The studio has even confirmed an in-game Arcade Mode that players will be able to access containing the original games for plenty of nostalgic action. Crazy Taxi: World Tour is currently slated to release sometime in 2027 across PC, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch 2.

      This and Crazy Taxi are the two games that interested me the most from this showcase.
