The General Anime Thread...

[CAMikaze]

Though I haven't seen any of the eps for it yet, I hear F/SN UBW TV will be back in the Spring of '15 picking up from where it left off.

I'll bet you yen to yakitori this might be the most anticipated title of next year.

Evangelion is...



...weird.

 

[Techy]

So many nice sounding romances out there. Too bad they all have terrible art or not art at all

I cannot read for extended periods of time, even a book that greatly appeals to me would turn me off eventually.

I also want to play a non-NSFW visual novel with good ENG translation... got any suggestions?

The F/SN VN

Welcome to the club. You hadn't watched it yet?

 

[Sage Ages]

I barely watch anything. This is a first.

Not the original series though. I probably missing out on a lot. Feel free to scold me.

 

[Downhill Dino]

It's not like you're missing anything good.

Now join Team Asuka.

Just don't run away

Now join Team Asuka.

Team Yui!

Watch the original Evangelion, in Japanese with English subs. Please. It has the worst English dub imaginable.

a) It actually vaguely makes sense to newcomers, at least until they ran out of budget.

b)It has awesome dancing angels rather than rubbish clock based angels.

c)They actually bother to characterise people who aren't Shinji.

 

[TheCorvette]

In all honesty I actually unironically like Evangelion's dub.

That's the most frustrating thing about Rebuild IMO.

Are you kidding me? Evangelion had the best dub. Especially the "normal" part of the last episode. /sarcasm

 

[jacnob]

So yesterday, in a fit of boredom, I watched a few episodes of that Sega Girls thing; its actually better than I thought, and is actually fairly funny, but I don't recommend it if you aren't familiar with Sega history or didn't grow up with Sega.

 

[nk4e]

Has anyone seen any news for Heavens Feel movie for fan?

 

[CAMikaze]

-> Just started Goldentime, and I was surprised!!! It was really good!

Now will it get you to go into farming?

Also, now that I think about it...

I can't help but think of her resemblance to Kujikawa Rise (Persona 4) albeit with a different hair color. Must be the studio doing the animation and character designs.

 

[jacnob]

Rin is better than Rise though.

 

[CAMikaze]

Rin is better than Rise though.

Why?

Spoiler: From another game in the Fate series

Is it because Rin becomes a mahou shoujo in the guise of KaleidoRuby?

Nah, I just don't like Rise

 

[nk4e]

Spoiler

Someone doesn't like Rise?

Started watching Date A Live. Seems very cliche, can anyone tell me if it's worth my time? There's a lot of it too

A similar show I'm trying out is The World God Only Knows. Though I dropped it on S3

Same here B-)
But The World God Only Knows is actually done well... I'm not sure about Date A Live.

Yeah it's pretty good. The main character some reason annoys me though

 

[Not_A_Guest]

I'll see. It has 2 seasons IIRC so it can't be terrible.
I'm usually not irked by the main characters of harems anyway.

 

[TheCorvette]

Has anyone seen any news for Heavens Feel movie for fan?

Nope, and we probably won't until well after the end of the second cour for UBW.

 

[The Vanishing Boy]

-> ...

Now will it get you to go into farming?

^ Farming!? I used to work at a farm before, is that even a joke?

Started watching Date A Live. Seems very cliche, can anyone tell me if it's worth my time? There's a lot of it too

^ For me its worth the time, for sure! Each character make me smile and god I love these three:

Kurumi, Tohka, & Origami

A similar show I'm trying out is The World God Only Knows. Though I dropped it on S3

^ Mind you that S3 TWGOK definitely follows 95% of its manga content. It was very well adapted manga to anime series, in which its a rarity these days...

Manga Version

 

[Not_A_Guest]

Gotta be better than Aoki Hagane no Arpeggio's adaptation. The manga and anime have the same characters and premise, but the anime ends up going way off. Oh well, I think season 2 might come in a few years.

 

[AOS-]

Wonder how rushed these will be, fitting long VN into one cour=Rushed
http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2014-12-27/2-more-grisaia-visual-novels-get-tv-anime/.82664

Pfft. I would just play the VN. The fact you're forced to read more dialogue keeps you more engaged. And plus, Yuuji drops a lot of philosophical ideas on you, the reader. He does almost none in the anime. I highly encourage passing on the anime as it skipped way more context to feel for any of the heroines.

Why is Rin > Rise?

Both are eye candy, but one doesn't know how to fight. Or use magic for that matter. No contest!

 

[CAMikaze]

-> ...

🤬

Sorry about that, I didn't know you worked on a farm before.

 

[The Vanishing Boy]

^ Nah, I'm cool. 👍

-> Just started watching Infinite Stratos S1. Boy that was fun!

-> Nooooo!!!! I want MOAR episodes of Sega Hard Girls & Danna ga Nani o Itteiru ka Wakaranai Ken!!!

-> And as usual, Yuru Yuri cracks me up as always!
