Huh?...I thought that was just his shikai?

I'm pretty sure that is his bankai. His shikai just does the wind attack and brings out both swords. His bankai requires him to play games with the enemy, but it is a clean bankai. The more his move could hurt him, the more powerful his attack will be. That's why at the end, he removed his white robe, wearing all black, and said "black".

Rewatched "Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex 2nd Gig - Individual Eleven" today but this time at 1080p. It felt like I was watching it for the first time. I had also totally forgotten about the bible references at the end because it's been too long since I had watched it. Was very smartly done by Production I.G. the way they used those references. Several apples around Motoko and Kuze who were about to start new life on the net with the refugees (Adam and Eve). And later Motoko seeing Kuze had taken a bit of his apple (The forbidden fruit/apple). Batou who tried to free Motoko out of all of the debris with a cross (Jesus).

According to the wiki his bankai form is yet to be revealed though :blink:

Now finished Toradora! and Mushishi.

Mushishi was stunning, Ginko is ridiculously cool. The artwork and soundtrack completely just engrossed me, and I finished the whole series in a matter of days.

Toradora! was very,very funny. That was one big plus point for the series. Looking it over it seemed different to other romance animes which was also quite refreshing.

Guess real life has taken priority for him.

Moving along .... Need to catch up with some anime, J-dramas and StarCraft II have been taking up most of my time lately :p

Bleach is the only exception to this ;)

I'm pretty sure that was just his shikai too because I dont remember it being mentioned as bankai in the manga

I have to catch up with the anime when I get the time

I could be wrong, but I thought these fights are what show us their bankais. Hard to say, but wiki says it is still unknown as well... bleach needs to clear this up for me or us :p

Is neon genesis evangelion good?

Yep. Though I recommend watching the new film remakes as opposed to the original series for a newcomer to NGE, easier to understand and Shinji won't annoy the **** out of you :p

Is neon genesis evangelion good?

Both the series and the rebuilds are good IMO. But just what RadishTM said; If you're a newbie to NGE then you should definitely start with the rebuilds.

    • 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.
    • The AI data centers need it more than us so...let them gobble it all up at that price!
    • "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.
    • Good, because the nonstop chattering from the voices in her head made me quit the second game.
