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.

    • no thanks is overpriced and its not the fastest ram neither.
    • It is, but it also has a bad performance reputation even on high-end gaming PCs. Some people say it's the engine's fault, others say it's the games developers' fault, who knows... At the end of the day, for the average gamer, the take is this: PC game with Unreal Engine 5? Be affraid and cross your fingers, it's a 50/50 chance.
    • 25th anniversary Xbox Series X unveiled with classic translucent green design by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The Xbox Games Showcase had a new Xbox console reveal from Microsoft celebrating the gaming brand turning 25 years old. This is to be a new limited edition Xbox Series X and controller collection that draws on the design of the rare green version of the original Xbox console. The "XBOX Series X25 Limited Edition" is coming out later this year with its matching controller. "Inspired by the look and feel of the original XBOX console, both the console and controller feature a translucent OG Green design, with subtle tributes to the journey we’ve been on together," said Microsoft in the announcement. The Xbox Series X|S line has received several new variants over the years, but this will be the first edition with a translucent design. The Xbox Series X25 will have one terabyte of internal storage and a green light on the X to signify the console lines' history. There is a 25th anniversary logo printed on the front plate. Microsoft is also teasing that the community will be able to find "a few hidden surprises throughout" the machine as well. As for the new X25 Special Edition Xbox controller, this is also coming with the classic translucent green design for its front and back plates. "From the original ABXY colors, to the timeless green, every detail calls back to the beginning, including the bumpers honoring the original black and white buttons on the original “Duke” controller," says the company about this release. "The back case and battery door are fully transparent, revealing the classic XBOX logo." The XBOX 25th anniversary collection, containing both the translucent console and controller, will be available for purchase in November 2026 as a limited-edition release. Microsoft will be offering the new XBOX Wireless Controller X25 Special Edition separately as well. Pricing details and pre-order information will be coming later.
