[Official] Anime/Manga Thread


Recommended Posts

My feelings towards One Piece have been swinging the whole time.

On episode 130 now, but i was getting bored on the alabasta arc.

I wasnt that excited about it for some reason, and it seemed really dragged out.

But now that its over one piece is back to being hilarious.

Ranma 1/2 Gets Live-Action Special with Yui Aragaki

A live-action television adaptation of Rumiko Takahashi's Ranma ½ martial arts comedy manga will air this December as a two-hour special on Japan's NTV network. Yui Aragaki (Digimon: Data Squad, Koizora) will play Akane Tend?, and Kento Kaku (Paradise Kiss, Gokusen) and Natsuna (Gantz) will play the dual male/female sides of the title character Ranma Saotome.

Viz published the manga in North America, and it also released the television anime series adaptation and the various anime spinoffs.

^ One Piece just keeps better. It tends to drag a bit but the ending of an arc is always more than satisfying smile.gif

Agreed! After watching basically every episode of Bleach, Naruto, and One Piece, I'd have to say One Piece is my fav.

It used to be Bleach but I don't really like where they've gone with it lately.

I'm on episode 171 of One Piece now.

Skyopia arc.

Niice!! Sounds like you're watching them pretty quickly.

I remember when I started One Piece I was so happy there was like 450 episodes to watch. How quickly that dwindled down to zero lol

I usually watch 4 a day.

I can't believe how much these arcs get dragged out... I thought it was going to end 10 episodes ago.

every episode past it i was thinking "one more to go".

It's odd how the Gundam in Mobile Suit Gundam AGE is called Saviour Gundam. Anyone who watched Gundam SEED Destiny will remember that Athrun was gifted a Gundam named ZGMF-X23S Saviour by Durandal. So to me it's somewhat odd how they've named this Gundam the same as it hasn't happened before with Gundams.

Has anyone seen the new reboot of Hunter x Hunter? I never saw the original anime, but I was a huge fan of the manga way back. They say it's too rushed compared to the original, but to me it's everything I could have ever wanted in an anime for that legendary series. Wagnaria!! this season I also found exceptionally funny so far. Has a style of awkward humour that I just love.

I just started Tiger & Bunny from last season. It sounds sort of cheesy to be honest, but I am a huge fan at only episode 3!

Excuse me now. I'll go back to ignoring this thread.

Code Geass is the closest to a mech anime I've watched.

Whats a good mech anime?

Eureka Seven along with Neon Genesis Evangelion both are a must watch if you want to dive into mecha anime. Rahxephon is pretty great too.

I'd also say Gundam but there are many series to choose from when it comes to it. IF you want to watch Gundam and aren't a fan of classic anime, you could start with "Gundam 00" or even "Gundam Unicorn". The latter of the 2 is still being aired with 1 episode at the start and end of the year. If you do like classic anime and want to dive into Gundam, than you should watch "Gundam 08th MS Team", "Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory" and "Gundam Wing".

watched em both.

Eureka Seven was really good, NGE I watched when I was first getting into anime and I didnt like it, probably just looking for something else at the time.

Macross nothing better.

which one? there are a few, and i've heard that most of them suck. :p

    • One reason it might be running hotter is dust build up within the cooling or perhaps the paste has dried out. You could always try repasting your old GPU and cleaning the cooler. Your experience in Linux will be much better with an AMD GPU; the performance in gaming is much closer to Windows than nVidia would be. I personally think on Windows, AMD drivers are junk.
    • I reviewed it back in March, but I didn't have a 5070 at the time https://www.neowin.net/reviews/amd-rx-9070-review-vs-rtx-5070-4070-and-rx-9070-xt-7800-xt--just-good-enough/ When I reviewed the 9070 I did have a 5070 to compare it against, so the scores are there for the 9070 XT. it outperforms the 5070 in raster, and is barely neck and neck in Ray Tracing. So it's better than a 5070 in everything but Ray Tracing where it is neck and neck, or just under. To be honest, the uplift from 3080 when it was new to the 9070 XT is not as great a step up. If you can find a used 4080 Super for around the same money, you would probably be better off, but if you only want to buy new then the 16GB 9070 XT is the best value for money in its category.
    • I really hope the author's health is ok. Squirreling away a official backup of this software. Looks like the internet archive already cached a copy as well - https://web.archive.org/web/20...ldbit-soft.fi/software.html
    • AMD is supported out of the box in linux because of their open source driver. Nvidia does not. All my systems are amd and all of them work nicely on linux arch without doing anything.
    • Never had a problem with TPM and started using that many years ago in Win10. Through several motherboards and OS versions, it just does what it does without complaint. My games library doesn't even know it's there. Secure boot does a lot more than support anti-cheat, as it came along long before anti-cheat software. I've used it religiously since before I started using TPM, and I always liked it for being able to nullify virus contagions that try their best to come in underneath the firmware during boot, so that the OS doesn't see them, etc. That is its purpose, imo. I'll never understand why people who elect to use another OS feel compelled to run down Windows... I guess they need to do that to feel secure about their choices? I run Windows because it supports all the software (including games) natively that I want to buy, and I've never had to run down another OS to make me feel better about it. (Although it's certainly possible to do that, of course...) Win10 is on a ventilator atm, and Win11 is very close to being free, and I finally got to stop running StartAllBack as I moved to the Experimental/Dev channel and my 26300.8553 build supports the moveable taskbar and it's running fine at the top of the screen! Finally, my last major dislike of Win11 is being rectified! So, I'm not at all surprised to see Win11's share of the Steam survey hitting 70%.
