It's one of those weird shows where just about everything you need to know about the tone of the show is conveyed through the opening animation. It still doesn't quite get at the last few scenes of the final episode, but I still cheer every time I see Ikari break down.

I watched a bit of Rurouni Kenshin, like a long time ago, dubbed. I came back about a year ago and tried to watch some of it, somehow under a different dub (Hulu and such) and I didn't find it as engaging as I did before. It had some moments and all that, but for all the time and energy people these days spend on talking about some of the long-running anime of that era (COUGH DRAGONBALL Z COUGH), looking back on it now, it doesn't feel as though a lot of it was fully realized in a conceptual way back then.

Maybe I didn't get far enough into my re-watch though

Desert Punk is good stuff. You can tell the points at which it diverged from the manga, but the result is nonetheless ballsy.

ALRIGHT just finished all of my list and to anybody concern i will say what i thought about it.

Lain- I Just got done with it and it was hard to follow at the beginning but i got interested in it around the 4th episode then everything kinda sorta made sense. it was a great point of view and i enjoyed it. the end left me kinda derp.


durarara- i liked the action, everybodys personality, and the story. that's it.

Black Lagoon- i hate the main character of the story. but i loved the action and the back story on the other people. duno if there is gonna be another season but i would watch it.

ergo proxy- dunno how to explain this, but it was interesting. the concept of the entire thing was amazing. hard as hell to follow half the time.

MLP FIM-

outlaw star- if i was to advertise this program i would say it is like gurren lagann but with none of the fun.

Spice and Wolf- :I

Not sure what that emoticon is supposed to be, but it looks discontent.
SaW is definitely hit or miss... I think you've got to have a certain sense of humor to really enjoy it, and if you don't, then... It's just another love story, I guess

I love it though, I've watched both seasons twice, and will probably watch them again


Edit: Plus, Horo is like...

And yet at the same time, she seems like the type of girl that you could settle down with :3

Well, if you didn't much care for the first season, then probably don't watch the second season... they're pretty much the same.
Also, the end of the second season is one of those ones where it's like "WTF, YOU CAN'T JUST STOP THERE!" type of endings that would make you think there's a third season, but yet, there's not...

You obviously haven't seen much anime then. It's usually either baddass warriors with huge fucking weapons raping the shit out of other people and/or demons, or chicks with huge tits that... go around raping the shit with out of other people and/or demons.

Aw man I was totally going to recommend the hell out of Bakemonogatari, seeing as how the initial run of this thread was before I became a Nisio Isin fanboy, but you're already watching them it seems. And you've hit up Katanagatari and I haven't watched enough of Medaka Box to formulate an opinion, though I hear that its "high school, slice-of-life" facade blows up later and it becomes a completely different show. Which seems like something Nisio Isin would do, I just don't have the patience to get to that point, or haven't yet

If you get into Durarara!!! and like the style then you should also hit up Ryohogo Narita's other adapted series, Baccano! The plot is that a few hundred years back someone on a ship sailing for the New World made a deal with the devil (or something that says it was the devil) and subsequently unlocked a formula for immortality. Crazy shit ensues and moving up to the modern era, more people become immortal, on purpose or on accident, and some of those are probably are too irresponsible to be immortal. Most of the characters are crazy at any rate and the Rail Tracer might be one of the most sociopathic (though entertaining) characters I've seen.

Its flaws: Like Durarara!!!, they opted for a limited-run adaptation of what was still an ongoing light novel series, so unlike Bakemonogatari, they had to tie shit up without resolving much of anything between the characters (there's just an arc or two) and who knows if they'll ever finish the damn thing.

The other flaw: it's jumpy. As in it spends a lot of time bouncing around between time periods and locations and while I appreciate the experiment, its purpose is obscured by its excesses.

Asides from who actually watches tv/anime/tv... what is so fun about animes? :( Also aren't you guys like 20-something you should be ASHAMED that you like anime like unless you're korean like the guys I knew, you should not be watching this ghey stuff.

So if you're Korean, it's fine to watch them, but if you're from any other country it's gay and childish?

We watch them because we like watching them. If you don't like them, don't watch them

While I understand maybe being a fan of watching them or something... if you discuss them and cosplay like some of the people here... then you're WEIRD AS FUCK. and as for the koreans, will they're asian, and we lived in malaysia, where it's asia too. But I bet you haven't even been out of the country, so why the hell would you support asia's fucking shitty culture? Japan + Korea + China + Polynesian countries = fucking shit culture with fucking shitty animes and you should be glad we have american tv shows and not fucking stupid nigger stuff like this anime. It's glorifying culture that should not be glorified, it's almost as bad as those fucking faggots too claiming "gay" pride. If you stopped talking about your gay pride then there would be no problem fucking shit heads. Same with racism. I know this may not have to do with anime, but my point is that you're glorifying culture that should not glorified unless you want to go live in their fucking shitty country.

tl;dr

I would suggest that you watch Legend of Galactic Heroes, but nobody should ever watch that.

I know I mentioned it before, but anyone that hasn't watched Jungle Guu yet needs to get on that shit.

I've discovered the means to do so so I guess I'm watching Jungle Guu now (Jungle Wa Itsumo Hare Nochi Guu, if you can't find it that easily)

I've watched an episode of Jungle Guu and I don't understand what's happening.

There's also a tendency in comedy anime to have at all times a straight man explaining the jokes and absurdities to the audience. I'm a little tired of it.
