[Official] Anime/Manga Thread


Recommended Posts

Yes, this week for anime/manga has been a great treat for those of us.

The bleach anime was just as epic as ever, fleshing out what the manga failed to do. Just brilliant, and I can not wait for the finale!

Naruto anime is back on track, and even after such a long break, it was a great return and start to an insane chain of events.

Naruto manga was just epic, and next week will reveal some secrets I'm sure :)

Bleach manga just teased us for the whole damn chapter, but the last picture frame seemed interesting.

@Capricorn

Seems like there's gonna be more action in the third episode of Gundam UC :)

EDIT: Just watched the new episode of Bleach. It was awesome. One of my favourite scenes was when Ichigo literally shut Aizen up midspeech :pinch:

Indeed, and the plot is about to get bigger as well. Can't wait to see the rest of the story in anime form :D

glad he did it! Aizen kept bluffing/trush talking "i pwn anyone any day bla bla bla" ......... ishigo was like "shut the hell up!!!" :laugh:

Truly Epic. I also love how conceded Aizen is, so where he believes it is his power destroying the world around him. Then Ichigo is like, oh, you didn't notice? That was all me.

I still use CR, don't know about supporting anime industry (after what viz is doing here). I'll seeto the end of my sub if I want to continue or not.

BTW Bleach was excellant, not compared to the last one ofcource. Does anyone know if they'll continue after aisen arc.

I don't think they can. It will be interesting to see what filler they do though because Ichigo will have no powers. Perhaps an arc following another character or one set in soul society.

I say they can't because they are only a few chapters into the current arc.

The current arc that is taking place after the Aizen Saga is a short arc, that will set up the next main arc. Ichigo will most likely get his old powers back or some form of a new one, and then we will get some sort of villain from Ichigo's family past I believe. I think they will delve deeper into the past, and show us why Ichigo is who he is, besides from the hygouku(?) part lol

Right, i did hear the current arc will be short. Still I dunno how short.

so he gets his fullbring, hopefully this chapter and then what, a quick scuffle with someone and he'll get his powers back?

I hope that is true but i still see a filler happening in the anime. Maybe just a shorter one and not one in bounto(sp?) length or Naruto style and give some past stories for a few weeks.

Sorta....

I feel this short arc will give us a good glimpse as to why Ichigo's Dad was in hiding, along with the secret of their power. I believe that his Dad most likely used the Final Getsuga like Ichigo, and up until the Arancarrs showed up, he was without power. Of course, this is all my speculation, but it sort of makes sense. His dad does say how it has been a long time and how it feels good after so long.... so hard to say if he is just talking about fighting, or his powers in general... I really hope we don't see too much of this Full Bring stuff, but more of just a way to bring upon his powers and some history revealing.

After much googling, I have decided to swallow my shame and consult the almighty otakus of Neowin!

I just finished Toradora. Coupled with an album from Ryuichi Sakamoto I got my hands on around the same time, it was an extremely emotional experience. I'd love a series that comes close to being that good to follow it up with, idc about a good/bad ending.

If anyone could help me, I would much appreciate it.

If you haven't seen them yet, Clannad and then Clannad: After Story.

    • Motrix Next 3.9.4 by Razvan Serea Motrix Next is a modern, open-source cross-platform download manager built as the official next-generation successor to the original Motrix project. It has been completely rewritten using Tauri 2, Vue 3, TypeScript, and Rust, while still relying on the powerful Aria2 download engine for high-speed multi-protocol transfers. The app supports HTTP, HTTPS, FTP, BitTorrent, ED2K and magnet links, offering advanced features like multi-connection acceleration, task scheduling, bandwidth control, and batch download management. With a significantly reduced install size (around 20MB), it focuses on being lightweight, fast, and resource-efficient compared to traditional Electron-based download tools. Designed for Windows, macOS, and Linux, Motrix Next delivers a clean, modern UI inspired by Material Design 3 principles, with smooth animations and a minimal workflow. It improves usability through better download organization, system tray integration, and enhanced torrent handling including selective file downloads and tracker management. Motrix Next features: Multi-protocol downloads — HTTP, FTP, BitTorrent, Magnet, .torrent, ED2K, and Metalink tasks BitTorrent — Selective file download, DHT, peer exchange, encryption controls, metadata caching, GeoIP peer flags, and tracker probing Browser extension integration — Embedded Extension API with independent authentication, download confirmation, smart auto-submit, filename hints, referer/cookie forwarding, and real-time controls (Chrome Web Store · Edge Add-ons) Safe filename handling — Content-Disposition, RFC 2047, non-UTF-8, percent-encoded, and extensionless URL resolution with path traversal sanitization Download organization — Favorite and recent folders, optional file-type categorization, stale-record cleanup, and completed history backed by SQLite Concurrent downloads — Independent controls for active tasks, HTTP connections per server, segments per file, and BT peer limits Speed control — Global and per-task upload/download limits with day-of-week and time-of-day scheduling System integration — Tray operation, optional tray speed display, macOS Dock badge/progress, protocol handlers for magnet://, thunder://, and motrixnext:// Lightweight mode — Destroys the WebView on minimize-to-tray while Rust keeps the engine, task monitor, notifications, history, and extension routing alive Notifications and power options — Native task start/complete/failure notifications, keep-awake during downloads, and optional shutdown after completion Network controls — Scoped proxy support for downloads, app updates, and tracker updates, plus system proxy detection Auto-update channels — Stable, Beta, and Latest Across Channels policies with separate download and install phases Diagnostics — Structured logs, exportable diagnostic ZIPs, database integrity checks, automatic DB rebuild, and Linux GPU rendering fallback Personalization — Light/dark/system theme, 10 color schemes, 26 languages, and first-launch system language detection Motrix Next 3.9.4 changelog: Motrix Next 3.9.4 promotes the 3.9.4 beta cycle to stable. This release refreshes bundled engine binaries, improves task detail readability and copy actions, expands link handling for magnet and ED2K workflows, polishes responsive navigation and text wrapping, updates browser extension documentation, and refines network preference controls. New Features Task Detail copy actions — Added copyable values for task metadata and reusable render functions for long text fields.

    • NVIDIA officially supports Ubuntu, as linked above with the GeForce NOW Hands on I did in collaboration with Paul Hill.
    • TO be clear I am not running linux today, however I keep thinking about it. And I want to make sure there are minimal obstacles if I decide to make that switch in the coming months.
    • Yes, I actually glossed over the Linux part from the OP. You could always go for a 9070 XT and if you really want to play Ray Traced games in the future, GeForce Now is pretty damn good on Linux https://www.neowin.net/news/nvidias-native-geforce-now-app-for-linux-bridges-the-gaming-gap-hands-on/
