When people say to me that Sengoku Basara is cool and to watch it...  I respond with Sengoku Basura? 
(Basura is Spanish for garbage.)

To this day, I havn't bothered to watch it, despite being a fan of the Warring States and 3 Kingdoms period...

[Neonivek]

Honestly you are not missing much. I actually think the games are cooler then the anime.

Heck at one point in the anime their budget runs so thin they actually have to run it without color.

[Hawkfrost]

It was certainly not amazing but some of the scenes are so ridiculous it can be worth watching if that is your kind of thing.
Like the scene where Hideyoshi splits the sea by punching it, or when Takeda rides up a castle wall on his horse while standing.

The show is no work of art, has a lot of shonen bullshit and filler and the games are quite better. The best part is the engrish, the physics breaking, and some of the music.
It's a guilty pleasure because you know you are watching something horrible.

It isn't that bad. The show does everything it attempts to.

There is no guilt in this pleasure.

For a moment I was wondering why you guys were calling it a show, I only knew it as related but different to Dynasty Warriors games. But now I have something else to watch eventually, because why the heck not.

Well I'm not saying I didn't enjoy it, I love silly hotblooded shenanigans.
It's hard to find stuff that goes as over the top as I'd like, unfortunately.

[Neonivek]

I know... but to me guilty pleasure means: Something you like, but you know isn't good (or at least not intentionally)

For example I absolutely love the TV show Life with Bonnie... Yet I know it is terrible.

But what I am saying about Sangou Basara is that it is actually legitimately good on purpose. Not amazing, just ok... but certainly not a guilty pleasure.

ANyone messed around with the shingeki no kyojin game/simulator thing? It's okay, takes a while to get the hang of the 3DMG though, and those running ones always get me, seems right now it is nigh impossible to kill them. Managed to get 10 kills before one grabbed me.

Link (http://fenglee.com/game/aog/), for those interested (it's unity).

Rewatching Toradora atm, and then Clannad, if I can figure out why my HDD is twice as full as it should be. Seriously, I have been trying to figure it out for the best part of half a day now; a tech wizard I am not.

BUT I AM


probably just got some files piled up place deep, try running this program http://windirstat.info/
thats how i found out where all i hid my 100s of VNs >_____>

Huh, wow, this is useful! Booted it up and am not 100GB up, after deleting that huge chunk of data that was steam... SO I can download more anime, huzzah!

Still doesn't quite match up though, the file sizes. Maybe windows is trying to keep backups of my anime folder or something *shrug*. Gonna look for an external HD, since right now apparenty 63% of my HDD is dedicated to anime

[Hawkfrost]

The missing space could be caused by fragmentation or system restore shadow copies. Vista in particular can have problems with going crazy on both fronts and eating up 30+ GB.

[Aklyon]

Yeah, if you alter significant amounts of free space, you should probably defrag if its not an SSD.

I've got a bookshelf with two shelves dedicated to anime. The top shelf is anime I'll want to watch again and again as the mood strikes me, while the second shelf is anime that I've watched and maybe will watch again but probably won't for a long time. In hindsight I don't download anime because I like having a hard copy of the shows I like to watch so I don't end up accidentially losing it and having to redownload the whole thing, and also because my computer can't play HD due to the fact that it's an old piece of shit. That in hindsight is kind of what I meant when I said old-fashioned previously.

[Furtuka]

So everyone's favorite openings seem to have come out now...

[Glowcat]

Gen'ei o Kakeru Taiyō seems like it wants to be another dark magical girl anime. I'm not sure I want to watch another show that likes to stab my heart and leave the knife inside. Not unless I have enough good light-hearted series to cancel it out this season.

Spoiler: What it's about (click to show/hide)

Magical girls who have to kill people turned into monsters due to their emotions. Those who die are removed from causality and it's as if they never existed.
