At first, I was disappointed to hear that Wangan Midnight finished at 26 episodes, it could have been more so that it would follow the manga and all that. The guys behind WM somehow made an epic ending, it truly deserves an 12 out of 10 (lol). It has a deep connection too with the characters, the viewers, the plot, everything is something worth thinking, unlike Initial D which feels repetitive. That's just me though, but yeah.

Dude WUT. When I watched WM I could not believe they could stretch it to 26 episodes, with 5 it would have been enough. It ALL sucked hardcore with the exception of how awesome the cars look. In fact if it was just a series of short films showing the cars racing trough the wangan with some thumpin' tunes it would have been awesome. But no, lame characters, lame plot that went nowhere, stupid "devil Z" thing that also neever went anywhere, very poor technical background for a racing anime... a disaster, like every other car anime. The only good points were some of the music and how cool the cars looked.



He didn't like it? Your brother is weird.



He liked it. The "Disturbing" was in a good way.
 
Why no YES for #3?

I think they're all quite nice. 👍

Indeed. I'm just especially fond of the first two. :D

So, TTGL recap up to Ep. 21:


Rossiu is a 🤬 moron. "Hey, let's scrap Gurren Lagann because we have no longer have a use for that, right? Right?" That's just so unbelievably retarded. You don't understand Spiral Energy, okay fine... but (threatening to, anyway) scrapping the one Gunman that kicked every bit of ass that came it's way? Seriously?

The populace are a bunch of pampered numbskulls. I fully understand the premise of the government and punishing Simon and everything for all the obvious reasons, but he really went overboard with the whole thing and that snide remark regarding Kamina was entirely unnecessary - that's a brilliant way to make a point: bastardize the reason everything changed in the first place. Unless Rossiu can redeem himself entirely in these last six episodes... I want him dead.

This is turning into a review of sorts so I'll cut it short: Nia's been an Anti-Spiral all along? Big 🤬 surprise there (I'm being serious), Simon can't catch a break to save his life. Yoko looked a wee bit better when she was younger... but is amazingly just as hot as Yomako, and I say that as if it's an entirely different person, but you know what I mean. Viral is now apart of Team Gurren; at first I was like "WUT?" but then I was like "Awesome!" I left out a bunch of other stuff I'd want to rant about, but I'll close with this: What was the deal with that 🤬 rooster beastman? :lol:
 
It's already gotten insanely fun.

I still want that fool to kick up dirt though unless something goes down where I'm all like "Oh, so that's why he was such an ass."
 
I loved it the first 5 or so episodes, but then it started with the ridiculous scenes... it still had some moments, so I was at least hoping for some wicked ending, but that's not happening. So yeah, I'd agree it sucks :lol:
The first 5 episodes were definitely great. I remember losing my mind at the end of episode 3, so I ask, what happened? Why? Who must I go back in time and slaughter to make it like that again?

Oh and episode 20 could've had 30% more badass from Yukki. Seriously.

It is? :odd:

If that's the case they should annunciate the "a" better. Sounds like a goddamn "u".
 
Mirai Nikki is postponed til next week apparently. Hope this means something good.

Yeah I finally found out there wasn't one this week. I was a sad panda but like you say, hopefully next week will be awesome.
 
You're watching it dubbed.

That doesn't mean anyth... who am I kidding? Yes, it does. :lol:

Dubbed?

TTGL?!

OF ALL SHOWS?!

WAT.

You should have caught wind of that when I kept mentioning Netflix.

n00b.


I bet he is. What a noob. Also T-12 hurry and finish it already!

Shut up and tell me where you got that plushie!

Also, I am finishing it!
 
Terronium, search up Simon's rebirth subbed and then watch it dubbed.


THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE MISSING.


This is exactly what makes me so frustrated with it. It had so much potential. But no, they just had to destroy it and I don't get why.
Pffff dude, you don't even know yet.

Mirai Nikki is postponed til next week apparently. Hope this means something good.
45 minute episode, not rushed and making it better than the manga, I'll be happy. It wouldn't be hard to make it better than the manga. Because the anime(from what I saw) copied scenes pretty much exactly. And then there's the advantage of BGM and voice actors, so yeah.


I'm still praying for an alternate ending. An alternate ending that takes place after a certain somebody dies.
 
Okay.

If you're just pointing this out, awesome. If you're trying to tell me that, 9 out of 10 times, the original audio is better than dubbed... I already know that. :lol:
 
Shut up and tell me where you got that plushie!

A friend gave it to me. He got it from Amazon if that helps. He later told me he wanted to get me an Etna figure but he said the ones he was looking at were like $150 lol. I didn't get an Etna figure. I still love my game and plushie though. :)


Also, I am finishing it!

Good!


The only anime I would go out of my way to watch dubbed is FMA/B and Cowboy Bebop.

I can't speak for Brotherhood but regular FMA has a pretty good dub. I like Bebop's dub as well.
 
I think the only VA that changed in Brotherhood was Al's, and that's only noticeable in the first few episodes. Ed, Roy, Hughes and Barry are the best.
 
Outlaw Star has a great dub as well.

I love OS, and need to watch it for the 87th time.


My brain automatically filters out anything "Netflix" since I don't use it nor interested in using it. Sorry for the inconvenience.

That's because you're a heathen. And a pirate.

A heathen pirate is what you are. IN 'YO FACE! :p
 
DK
That Mari pic with the giant ass will do that. :lol: I know you secretly long for her to return.
"Yeah, at least then she'd stop kidnapping me...but then I'd miss her massages."

You have low standards, don't you.

Dude WUT. When I watched WM I could not believe they could stretch it to 26 episodes, with 5 it would have been enough. It ALL sucked hardcore with the exception of how awesome the cars look.

I guess Mr. Glasses Man doesn't feel the "connection" in WM...
