[Official] Anime/Manga Thread


Recommended Posts

Is there a thread with as much replies and activity as this one, that is not just a sort of spam thread? :p

On topic though, New Full Metal Alchemist Manga came out a couple days ago, showing what Ed and Al did after it ended. Was nothing really special, but mainly just showed them melting Al's armor down and turning it into useful parts that people will end up using. Looked like it would be 30 pages long,but ended actually around 17, and had nothing but filler advertisements for the rest. I was hoping for a little more from it, but it wasn't too bad lol.

More Mio! :woot:

Just finished an anime called Zipang. So disappointing. Modern Japanese battleship gets thrown back into World War II. Really cool plot potential. The first few episodes were pretty exciting, but then it became boring and slow. I kept watching so I could know how it ended.

Didn't even have an ending. It was basically a normal episode and they just leave you hanging. Must have run out of production money or something :p

That's what happen when writer have a really good concept but don't know how to implement it. Just look at Occult Academy, it had a really good ending (and overall story).

And juresp I haven't seen any good anime like Ghost in the shell (I don't consider FF:SW as a good anime :p ) yet. I would sure be thankfull if someone else has any in mind.

Whoah, it ended?! I think I saw up to episode 11 or 12. I wasn't keeping track of when episodes were coming out. I'll check it out.

This weeks bleach episodes sucked big time, and looks like the next one will too.

It is actually better animated than it was drawn out. They are sticking with the manga well, but it seems more serious at least in motion. I hope they do his death justice, because in the manga, it was pretty lack luster. But after this, it gets totally awesome.

Just watched Broken Blade Movie 2 - I have to say it has potential.

Although more critically I might be watching it just because of the need to know the whole story of what happened in the past. :/

A few other ones I watched,

Kurokami -

everyone goes ssj4 in the end, Type Moon ending, I would say poor from the concept up, Sailor Moon / Digimon Tamers type power-up sequences, shornen;predictable, short.

Avoid at all costs.

Tears of Tiara -

Many useless female characters when it comes down to it, meh storyline (doesn't feel developed enough, some parts are good though!), hidden power type ending, good fights.

OK to watch, but not to re-watch.

Bleach is out, I'm sad thinking it's going to end :(.

Cite your sources. I don't want to be celebrating early. Also is there an abridged version?

    • Ninja Theory's new Hellblade game is action-focused and set in Purgatory by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Ninja Thery has been building its award-winning Hellblade series since 2017, delivering Senua's Sacrifice and Senua's Saga since then. Today at the 2026 Xbox Games Showcase, the studio had a brand-new installment announcement featuring Senua again, but this time, she is in a version of purgatory, and the focus is on the action. Simply named Senua, this new entry is described as a "full-on action-adventure" experience, delivering an expanded focus on combat, puzzle-solving, and freedom of exploration. The developer says that it is keeping the same high production values and storytelling features of the previous games while giving what players have been asking for in the gameplay department. The entirety of Ninja Theory is now working on Senua, giving the project much more manpower than ever before, while also letting the team draw on its action roots from Devil May Cry and prior titles. However, the studio also confirmed that its previously announced Project Mara horror experience is no longer in development. Alongside snappier traversal moves, Senua will be able to take stealth and direct combat routes. She has access to her own sword, plus any enemy weapons as well, with dual wielding also being an option for most dropped melee swords, axes, and other weapons. Outside of melee combat, Senua will be able to use special abilities that let her alter the reality around her. The world is said to be about twice the size of Hellblade 2. While this won't be an open-world experience, the linear story will let players explore their surroundings further than before. The story of Senua will be set after the events of previous Hellblade titles, with our protagonist being stuck in her own version of Purgatory. The series' well-explored psychosis themes will return as well. "She’s trapped between life and death on a quest to reach the afterlife and be reunited with the ones that she’s loved and lost," adds the studio. "Her belief is that by healing the wounds of her life, she can find the peace that is the key that unlocks the gate to the afterlife." Senua is releasing on Xbox Series X|S, PC, and PlayStation 5 sometime in 2027.
    • Windows has had it, it's called camera frame server. I recall when it was first introduced in an early Windows 10 release it caused issues and there was a registry entry to disable it. Seems like they disabled it by default at some point. Windows 11 brought that toggle to the settings app (not just registry) a while ago.
    • You didn't like Mafia The Definite Edition? As a fan of the first when it came out, I liked that remake.
