I just watched Sora no Manimani. I'm really enjoying this series both the humor and serious side of it. And of course the astronomy side is a big plus :)

Watched the 8th episode just now and kept on laughing at Edogawa's antics and Sayo's dad :laugh:

Naruto Ship 125 is out. Great episode, but I disliked the ending. I don't believe the manga showed off Toby that way as early.... or am I just forgetting that it happened. Still a great episode though.

[trag3dy]

I haven't watched the episode yet, but Naruto and Crew do encounter Toby after the Didera fight or however his name is spelled, when they're searching for Sasuke. In the manga that is, too.

[shakey]

well, in this episode, they have toby speaking to pain, as the real leader of the clan, and during their 3 minutes of talking, he reveals himself totally. I didn't think this happened up until roughly sasuke or naruto finds him.

[trag3dy]

Hmmm, yeah, all that happens before uhhh......more name forgetting....the old white haired guy who trains Naruto tries to sneak into their city. Which happens shortly after the Sasuke fight we just saw. Which will be awesome fight to watch.

[Azusa]

So no opinions as to what i should watch in my Break?

[deletedxyz]

Is anyone else watching Spice and Wolf 2?

[Azusa]

Is anyone else watching Spice and Wolf 2?

i would be if i had seen season 1.

[devBrian]

Is anyone else watching Spice and Wolf 2?

Yeah, this town (latest ep) isn't nearly as interesting as the last one, though. Very boring :(

[Berserk87]

so im thinking im going to give naruto a try.

[shakey]

if you start with naruto first season' you will want to skip the filler shortly after sasuke breaks away. then you will want to jump directly to shippuuden. i recommend reading the manga' it will give you more insight when you start watching it.

[trag3dy]

so im thinking im going to give naruto a try.

You should give it a try. A lot of people look down on Naruto and I'm not entirely sure why. Yeah it's not the deepest anime ever created, but for me it's entertaining and that's all that matters.

And yeah, the filler after the big Naruto/Sasuke fight is horrendous, there's about 100 or so episodes you'll want to skip after that. Watch it if you want, but it doesn't add anything to the main story of Naruto and it's really bad. You've been warned. :rofl:

Animenewsnetwork lists episode 136 as the first filler episode. Oh yeah, if you do skip the filler, be sure to get the very last(before Shipuuden) Naruto episode #220, because that is actually part of the story.

it's looked down on for two reasons 1. the fanbase 2. it is aimed at kids FFS when you have things like Genocyber, Angel cop, Bast4rd, and Queen's blade out there it's kinda obvious as to what age group it's aimed at.

[shakey]

naruto shippuuden is a great quality anime. the art style is well done' music compositition is great' and the story has some good meanings and twist. id rate it higher than bleach' though i enjoy bleach more..... dunno why lol. maybe its that naruto started broadcasting in hd.. or sort of hd lol.

it sort of is. but i think the fact that it deals with kids puts that impression off way more than it actually is. especially with the new ones. theres mass deaths happening every week with characters people have built 'bonds' with.

[Berserk87]

ya the reason ive never watched naruto is exactly as yuri said.

its aimed at kids, and the fan base just makes it look even worse :p

[shakey]

is any animes fan base cool :p * im at work having to surf on cell' so i have limited typing functions lol. my comas are ' for some reason.

[Berserk87]

this is the first thing i think of when someone mentions naruto.

is any animes fan base cool :p

i suppose not.

yeah but when these mass deaths and usually the result of some hand jive it doesn't have the same impact as 5 rounds from a .50 desert Eagle at near point blank range.

is any animes fan base cool :p

Yeah the one from Detective Conan

PS: the plural of anim? is anim? with no S.

[shakey]

omg ' my brain! lol' that pic confuses me.

[Berserk87]

this is one of my favorite pics.

what about a heart being ripped out infront of someones face' arms being blown off and sucked into other dimensions' or someone being buried alive but in several bits n peices. also had a guy forced to kill himself with his own moves. most of these characters are ones with backstories as well. its gotten better :)
