Yeah anime is literally just a shortening of animation in Japanese. It's not a genre it's a medium. It'd be the same if you said "I like TV but I don't enjoy the shows for teenagers. But I really enjoy the cop shows"Quantumsurfer wrote:I think, as with anything but perhaps moreso with anime, when you talk about anime, you almost have to break it up instead of discussing whole shows.

Evangelion Rebuild 2.0
I finally tracked down Evangelion 2.0 You Can (Not) Advance on animetoon.tv.com. So far so good, but imagine if Shinji were not so much pussy, and instead a sarcastic closet perv like me or Overwatch.

I reached the part where Kaji was flinging the California bullshit at Shinji. Despite my worries (through the roof), listening to that scream (Shinji) was well worth it

Re: Anime Thread
Just watched Tekkon Kinkreet, and it was good (although I think it was lacking in story). I just have one question, is the character Rat also the older Yakuza in Mind Game? I also noticed that the time traveling superhero from Mind Game also appears for a moment on the TV in Tekkon Kinkreet.
This sig is too fucking large: show anyway

Re: Anime Thread
Is anyone watching Zankyou no Terror (aka Terror in Resonance)? It's a more serious anime directed by Watanabe (Cowboy Bebop, Samurai Champloo, Space Dandy). I just watched the first episode and I thought it was pretty well done.

Re: Anime Thread
I forget he also does serious stuff. Kids on the Slope was really popular a few years back and most people have a giant boner for Macross Plus.

Re: Anime Thread
I have a general, all purpose boner for all things Macross - that being said, I prefer Macross 7 (and the associated OVA's) over Macross Plus.
Macross Frontier and the recent films are by far the best of the collection so far. DAT MACROSS QUARTER.
On another note, I have laid my filthy little mitts on Suisei no Gargantia after a recommendation from a friend.
I'll let ya'll know what I think soon enough.

Re: Anime Thread
So I have now sat my way through six or so episodes of Suisei no Gargantia (otherwise known as Gargantia on the Verdurous planet) and I have to say I am enjoying this well made, fairly laid back little series.
I have to admit, the plot line itself strikes me as being family close to webcomics I read nearly a decade ago (language barrier and culture shock, the main character is a warrior from an eternal war thrown into a completely opposite society, oh the future lulz) but it is something I can just turn on and sit through fairly brainlessly for a few hours, so it gets a thumbs up from me.
