-> Just finished Rosario Vampire Capu2 and (finally) Negima!?. Now I'm beginning to watch Mahō Sensei Negima! ~Shiroki Tsubasa Ala Alba~. And thinking of watching Futari Ecchi, maybe Tokyo Magnitude 8.0, and the 2nd season of Haruhi Suzumiya. Before I watch some of my Anime DVD collection namely:

- The rest of Genshiken
- Kujibiki Unbalance
- The rest of School Rumble
- The rest of Kiddy Grade
- Gurren Lagann
- The rest of Gravion series
- Cosplay Complex
- The rest of Green Green
- The rest of Gunslinger Girl
- My Dear Marie
- Tristia of the Deep Blue Sea

:scared:

FMP is next on my "anime to buy" list :p
^ You will definitely like FMP; but I advice you to do this:

1st-> FMP! - Original series (got to know how everything started. Complete collection on sale now thru ADV.)
2nd-> FMP! - The Second Raid (if you like more action and drama. Complete collection on sale now thru Funimation)

and/or

3rd-> FMP!? - Fumoffu! (if you're like me, love-comedy w/ harem galore! Complete collection on sale now thru ADV.)

Black Lagoon is just awesome in general. Period.

FMP! kind of is soft and fun compared to Black Lagoon, which gets really heavy sometimes, to the point of just depressing.

I haven't watched the Bleach anime in ages... Kind of gave up on it, just wasn't as compelling as the Manga.
On BL-> Really? Is it as serious as Beserk and Gunslinger Girl or Serial Expleriment Lain? :confused:

On Bleach-> I find the manga a bit more of a serious tone compared to the anime version. I find the anime version *relaxing* and *entertaining* compared to the Kubo-san's original. And I don't know why, I'm one of the few who likes filler episodes. :)

Golden Boy is so awesome.
^ The manga is, the anime is too short. I really hope that they could reproduce the whole series with stories that wasn't shown in the anime version. :)
 
lol, I already saw all 3 FMP series before :p
It's just that I wouldn't mind supporting teh anime industry buy buying the series I really like ;)

^ I really want to buy Godanner, I watched it already but it was so good that I have to have it! I only buy DVDs if its proven to be that good. :)

And Randy Hayes needs to do Kintaro.
^ Um, sorry, but you recall me who he is. I'm terrible with Seiyūs. All I know are my loves from Japan Aya Hirano and Nozomi Sasaki; and in the US, Chris Patton, Luci Christian, Monica Rial, Wendy Lee, Peter Cullen, Steven Blum, and Bridget Hoffman. :dunce:

has it came out already?
^ Yup, its been a month already. :)

Endless eight (You know what I mean) is really pissing off fans, isn't it?

Oh yes, very much so. :guilty:

You might as well watch up to the second episode and stop there, you won't miss anything. Really.
^ May I ask, why everyone is bitter about the 'Endless Eight' episode? I havent watch it yet. whats up with that? :confused:

-> I know Haruhi is as in a way *twisted* (as my best friend describe w/ Evangelion), can it really be as annoying as the Bleach fillier episodes (as what everyone claims)? :confused:

:boggled:
 
^ May I ask, why everyone is bitter about the 'Endless Eight' episode? I havent watch it yet. whats up with that? :confused:

Seconded. I saw the internet explode about it a little while ago, but I don't get whats going on. Is it crap or something?

Well, the thing is, it's not just an episode. It's been 4 now iirc. *cough*hint*cough*

I don't want to ruin the "surprise" if you can call it that, but seriously, if you see it, you'll know what we mean.
 
^ Anime marathons are a piece of cake for me (I can watch animes up to 9 hours minimum straight), it wont bother me at all. I've seen worse. :sly:
 
Glad to see I'm not the only one who can total marathon through a series. (My record so far is Bleach, eps. 1-170-something, in one sitting.)
 
Um...wow. The most I can attest to watching in one sitting is Tenchi Universe 1-26 (and the first movie) after I got home from FYE.
 
Hey which episode of the endless eight is the best? i thought that the third one was the best. I actually haven't watched the very latest one because i heard it was the same (odd isn't it?) as the other ones. The one where he sits in the aisle, because i thought that the dumb 🤬 was finally going to kiss her or something plot relevant.
 
Ok wait, so the next Haruhi is out? There is no real "second season" all they're doing is throwing in the new episodes with the old? I've been waiting for another legit season but I guess I'll have to just fill in my first season with the new eps.
 
Well, they're new eps... I guess you could call it a 2nd season, most people are. But I don't imagine this one selling anywhere near as much as the first, when/if they're released on DVD.

And the most I've ever watched in one go (my only real marathon I think) would be the 2nd half (eps 26 to 49) of GaoGaiGar with a couple of mates :)

I finished Beserk, Neon Genesis, Shuffle!, Comic Party, Chrno Crusade, and FMP in one sitting.
^ The most I've done was InuYasha from ep.15-133 and 4 episodes of Azumanga Daioh in one sitting. I ate a lot of Kellogg's Rasin Bran during the process. :scared:

-> Oh BTW, where could I find the other Suzumiya anime? Its that Suzumiya-chan version. It's like Lucky Star with with the same Suzumiya cast.

:scared:*I love Aya Hirano*:scared:

EDIT-> Oh wait! I'm watching Suzumiya-chan right now! After that I'll watch that 2nd Endless Eight. :dopey:
 
Another thread that I like to go to on Crunchyroll just detonated itself. It was quite a shock to visit one of my favorite sites and find more porn than could fit on my HD.

Well, anyway, currently watching Needless, it's almost exactly like Gurren Lagann, without mecha, and amplified several billion times.

Yes, Black Lagoon is dark. Suicide, murder, crimes, no happy endings sometimes, and so on. I wouldn't dream of comparing it to the much lighter tone of FMP, except maybe, just maybe, FMP: Second Raid.

And that is just a maybe. Yes, Black Lagoon has funny stuff, but its got its heavy heavy stuff. Lain never made me laugh, BL did, but it was kind of the "haha, oh man that is a little twisted" a lot of the time. I'll go back and re watch it again and let you know.

As for sittings... I did all of Rah Xephon in a day, and watched entire series in two or three. Usually limited on how fast I can get ahold of them. Hell, I've watched about 7 seasons of Star Trek: Voyager in about a month now. And I read all of Death Note in a couple of weeks, while going to school and working 30 hours a week and dealing with the holidays and a wedding.

I tend to get a bit obsessed when I like something...
 
^ Hmm.. I like stories w/ a bad ending. ^_^

Suzumiya-chan-> BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! Damn! I've never been so cracked-up since Azumanga Daioh, Rosario Vampire and Lucky Star!!!! A definite recomendation!!! :lol:

Click on the pic to get started:


^ If you think that you know all the characters? Just watch this!!! The only ting missing is the Lucky Star cast to show up. 👍

:lol:

~> After the 7th episode, I'll be heading to bed. (its 3am here already!!!) :scared:
 
Personally, I like the Nyoro~n Tsuruya-chan ones better, but Haruhi-chan is pretty entertaining, and while waiting for "new" episodes to be released (Nyoro~n...)
 
It seems like a new season as far as I can tell.


As for which episode of the endless eight I like, I like the most recent one the best, it was actually somewhat interesting to watch because of the new angles and stuff, not to mention what happens at the end.
