[Official] Anime/Manga Thread


Recommended Posts

Got all nostalgic yesterday with the new Bleach ED from episode 330, was surreal seeing scenes from the last decade. Can't believe it's been that long already; I remember I started watching the series around episode 20 :)

And currently watching "30-sai no Hoken Taiiku". A hilarious (those facial expressions are comedy gold), adult plot surprisingly without much fanservice :laugh: (Y)

Same here, especially with Naruto...

Well, I haven't been up to much anime/manga reading except for the same ole same old.

Bleach anime arch is good. Still a lot of mystery around what is happening, but the fights haven't become stale or neither has the plot. Liking this filler a whole lot actually.

The manga of Bleach is just getting crazy, and I'm unsure how this is supposed to be playing out. A lot has been left unanswered, and even more oddness than before is happening. Right now, I think I'm staying with it, if only to see where it is going..... sigh

Naruto... this is just getting better and better, for both anime and manga. Anime is sticking to the story, and is at the part where all out war is about to break loose. There have been some epic fights already animated out that have made me very pleased, and many more to come. The manga of Naruto is just epic as could be, loving this war.

Gantz... hrrmm... what to say.... I'm dumb struck with where they are at right now. The alien force that had captured them declared peace... but then war again... then some other aliens come in and **** up gantz.... and the humans are sent to some other alien ship or planet.... hopefully it all comes together in the next few chapters.

The current filler arc in Bleach is probably the best filler I've watched so far, certainly can't go wrong with Kenpachi vs. Reigai Kenpachi <3 Maybe Kujo will become Ichigo's sidekick for the remaining filler episodes to defeat Inaba, while Rukia takes a backseat with the Gotei 13?

I need some new anime to watch. I'm finding going through my old collection and re-watching some.

I want something new though...

I like a bit of action and drama. Saikano is one my favourite animes. While not so much action. The story was brilliant.

I've watched/watching most of the popular ones (Naruto, Bleach, GITS/SAC, Eva, Death Note, etc)

I noticed someone mentioned Tsubasa further up. Is that show still going has it finished? I stopped watching after Season 1 and it seemed to take ages to come back on, so i never continued. If the series has finished, i might grab that.

<3

RADISH, ANSWERS NOW! :p I must know, is this a new Beserk... One that is to follow the manga? What have my eyes just witnessed? Have you just made me the happiest girl in the world? :p ANSWERS, I DEMAND ANSWERS! DO YOU WANNA **** BESERKER!?

lil bit predictable the last two eps :/

so far so good , not much to add about current 'filler' arch

*nigh quite /again*

Haha, it's one of three films to retell the "Golden Age" arc (and possibly more later) from the manga.

i shall look up this "golden age" arc... I haven't kept up with Beserk in so long, but it is by far, one of my favorites. Even the anime, which strayed so far away from the manga, is a masterpiece.

Ah, thats right, golden age is just what they refer to as the beginning.... I wonder though how this will exactly pan out. Will they stick with the manga, or is it just going to be a remake of the anime... and will it go further past where the last anime left off? Still very excited for this.

It will stick to the manga, separate from the original TV anime. Essentially, the plan is to adapt the entire manga into film; boggles the mind as to how long that will take (a few decades going by length of the manga? :|) but I'm certainly not gonna argue with more Berserk :D

Damn man, you have made my day with that statement.... More Berserk.... *goes into coma of happiness* :drool:

Hey guys. I was wondering if any of you could help me out here.

I recently went to the Ghibli museum and got this ticket. I was wondering where it's from?! I can't seem to recognise it at all :(

(Apologies if it's the wrong way round!)

It's from "the cat returns" it's pretty new but it's a sort of spin off of "whisper of the heart".

Just watched the latest ep of Detective Conan and damn it's nice seeing a show that can run for 623 episodes and put a little plot in what could be called filler.

Also Lupin III S2 where did the budget go?

The worst quality drop I have ever seen was Gunslinger Girl S1 -> S2

berserk movies = epic, can't wait for that.

griffith does look very feminine, but everything else looks good.

on a side note, I need a new series to pick up...

I havn't been able to find anything thats held my interest recently other than re-watching deathnote with my room mates.

Link to MAL if anyone has any good suggestions.

I'll probably be watching tokyo godfathers tonight, but i still need a series to pick up.

MAL

just watched "Blood: The Last Vampire".

I really liked the animation and sound effects, the story was pretty good, but it was a short movie, so not much in terms of plot i guess.

There is other Blood related media.

For example, Blood+ was an ok ONE TIME watch.

Watched Ghibli's "Arrietty" earlier this evening with family. Loved the characters, gorgeous animation and the lovely soundtrack but felt the fantasy plot needed just a bit more depth to make it into a complete masterpiece; still 9/10 tho.

Going through another Lupin III special tonight; "The Pursuit of Harimao's Treasure". Fun so far with James Bond and Nazi's making an appearance against Lupin III (oh and Goemon-chan as a "part-timer" :laugh:) (Y)

I really enjoyed the live action movie of Goemon. I thought they did a good job with everything.

    • Doom: The Dark Ages Revelations expansion gives the Slayer a brutal Chain Spear by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Last year, id Software released Doom: The Dark Ages as a prequel to its reboot series, offering a look at the legendary Slayer character during an ancient war between Hell and Heaven. Today, at the Xbox Games Showcase, id Software returned with a new announcement that unveiled Doom: The Dark Ages Revelations as its first story expansion. The expansion will see the Slayer being betrayed and cast into a "merciless purgatory only escapable by confronting haunting truths." Somehow, there is one ally in all this chaos seemingly attempting to help our protagonist escape his fate. Players will be ascending this prison and fighting plenty of new demons and abominations as they work to free the Slayer's followers. One new aspect of the expansion will be the Chain Spear. This new weapon is described by the studio as a "uniquely satisfying combat system that rewards mastery with a potent combination of power and mobility." Check out the trailer below to see the new weapon in action, where the Slayer is seen using it to even pin enemies to walls. id Software is also preparing a free update to all owners of Doom: The Dark Ages that will land alongside the new paid expansion. Dubbed the Ripatorium 3.0 update, this will add more customization options, an improved pass code generation system, and preset options for players diving into the game's arena challenge mode. Expansion buyers will also receive additional maps, demons, and new weapons to use in this mode in addition to the story levels. Doom: The Dark Ages Revelations expansion is out on July 7 across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5 with a $19.99 price tag. Those who own the Premium Edition or the Collector's Bundle will receive the expansion for no extra cost as well.
    • Hyped for this. Replayed the remasters recently and they're so well done, and Crash 4 was great too. I trust this team to deliver.
    • 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.
