Was the anime odd?  Manga versions aside, I've had the anime versions of both Parakiss and Nana sitting on my computer for...eight and seven years now, respectively, as a part of my extensive backlog.  I may have to watch the anime versions of both, now.

I'm guessing it was the relationship complications... and maybe the castle.  The castle took me by surprise.

@Japanese Truck Drivers
Semi-relevant: Sunshine Girl Its an animated video/song thing.

Alright, I just want to reel back a couple pages to say that whenever I see an "award winning" short, my expectations are almost always VERY LOW. It just comes with the package of being a disillusioned manchild.

However, after watching, only one thought is in my head: "This is the most award winning shit I've ever seen. The critics must have been ejaculating praise onto it. I know I would've."

Damn Madan no Ou to Vanadis is a hard show to take seriously, a certain "something" totally overshadows all the politics and war themes. A few pics from 1 episode to illustrate:

And a shot from another site, this is a preview of one of the 7 Battle Maidens (the seven most powerful warriors in the world) we haven't seen yet:

Yeah I can't wait for that.

... so this... keyman thing. Seems to be a few years old. Fanservice aside (and yes, if anyone goes looking, it's got fairly rather explicit fanservice.), kung-fu tyrannosaurus-person detective.

I... anyone know what I can expect from this? I intend to keep reading, but. But.

Actually, can folks recommend awesome lizardpeople in general? This one's the most impressive scaled thing I've seen since monster collection. Which... was also pretty fanservicey, actually. Is there some sort of correlation with that?

Non-humans in general would be okay, I guess, but scales seem to have a certain panache. Non-mammal in general, I suppose...

suck the venom out

By the by don't do this... it doesn't work.

Extra points to Naruto for doing a poison curing technique that wouldn't even remotely work... AKA cutting open your hand and bleeding.

... you, uh. Do know that Naruto would have probably been fine even if he hadn't done that, right? Of course that wouldn't even remotely work -- that's not what fixed the problem :P

It is implied that it was the actual method of curing poison if your hit with a poisoned weapon. Just happens that Naruto has the ability to self-neutralize poison... at least that time.

I don't think the implication was that Kakashi was messing with Naruto.

Mm. Well, there's always the possibility it actually would work for ninja, too... chakra is magic, et al. One-eye might have been giving accurate advice. Just... not advice you should follow if you're in a world that doesn't have random physics hax and whatnot. Or maybe even starting out on genuine advice (ninja medicine applied directly to open wound) before fishcake jumped the gun and stabbed 'isself like a twit.

... or the writer didn't know what the zog they were talking about :P

I'd accept that Frumple if it wasn't a common belief held even today. It is a relative of the "sucking the poison out" method of cutting yourself open to bleed it out.

Okay, wow, I am kinda' conflicted as hell on this keyman thing. On one hand, there's tits hanging out during a fair chunk of the chapters so far and there's bits that are honestly kinda' skeezy.

On the other hand, the art direction both during that and especially everywhere else is basically goddamn amazing. This is a series with a tyrannosaurus-man as one of your primary characters. Among other things, he fights gigantic animal-conglomerate more-or-less kaiju with a multi-breasted witch sticking out the top and skull-headed doom-butlers that kicks the shit out of things with a cane. And, just. It's part 60s noir detective, part super-hero comic, part eldritch monstrosity flick, part... a dozen other things. And almost all of it looks kinda' incredible.

It's. I half-way don't know what to think. Other than to keep reading. This is both mildly off-putting and kinda' great.
