Shizuo is a total pimp.

Where are you at in the series, so I don't spoil nothin?
Watched episode 1-9 yesterday, about to watch 10.

what anime is that Toony?
Durarara!!, I think it's from the creator of Baccano! but I'm only thinking that because of the exclamation point.

I'm not a fan of anime. I can't stand the low framerates and cliche characters and stories. Plus, I find the voice acting to be irritating. No offense to any of you otaku out there.

That's why I'm hoping when they dub Durarara!! it will be just as awesome.
The only thing I don't like are the main character and his female love interest, shit is boring man.

I highly recommend Bakemonogatari. has some very interesting characters, plot and some witty dialogue and funny interactions between them. Let me rephrase that, there's actually a lot of talk and banter between characters but it's well pretty written and you'll hardly notice. Its visual presentation's also certainly different & can be rather odd & may be an acquired taste, but do give it a try.

Some conversations & quotes from the series:
“Just this once, I’ll do anything. Anything at all. Just this once, I’ll fulfill whatever you wish for. Whether it’s world conquest, eternal life, or defeating the Saiyans that are coming to earth.”
----------------------
“My harsh remarks are made by transmuting 40g of copper, 25g of zinc, 14g of nickel, 5g of hiding my embarrassment along with 97kg of spite.”
"It's mostly spite!"
"By the way, the hiding embarrassment was a lie."
"That's the one part you shouldn't get rid of!!"

----------------------
"There was a figure of a man who fought an elementary school kid, threw her over his back with all his might, and was boasting about his victory from the bottom of his heart, despite the fact that he was in high school. Actually, that's me"

"There stood a high school boy, who for selfish reasons had twice beaten an elementary school girl unconscious, and had gotten all nihistically worked up about it. Actually, that's still me."

----------------------
And finally, something serious:
"Different conclusions are reached when one fact is viewed from two separate points of view. When that happens, there is no immediate way to judge which point of view is the correct one. There is no way to conclude one's own conclusion is the correct one. But for that exact reason, it is also premature to decide one's own conclusion is wrong."

Couldnt resist watching something called 'Highschool of the Dead'. Its entertaining zombie madness, during which you probably shouldnt be paying too much attention to the logical loose ends, cause theres a lot of those. The fanservice is way over the top though, to the point it just seems parodic.

Also if you like 'Bakemonogatari', you might like 'Katanagatari' from the same writer. Its got the same brilliant 'talk and banter' in it, along with a neat artistic style and unpredictable story.

I think that it has to be a parody. The most recent ep abandons all pretense of even retaining character personalities, in order to display more boobies. It's just hilariously over the top.

Meh, I guess it depends on the person watching.

For me, it's the best thing since sliced bread, but of course for everyone who loves something, there'll be someone who doesn't like it as much.

I mean, some people can love an abomination like Twilight, whilst I cannot stand it. at all.
I love Twilight for the complete stupidness + corniness of it.
Nothing to see here.

Twilight is hilarious depending on how you see it, I mean:
Ed: "I like, can't be around you or something bad will happen, I'm also allergic to girls, so please stay away, k."
Mary SueBella:[/i]"Oh ok ;__;"
ED:"So uh, want a pigback ride through the woods?"
Bella:"Kay ^_______^"

Talking about hilarious
, Maria+Holic is the most hilarious thing ever coceived by the twisted japanese psyche, seri ously, its about a lesbian student that goes to an all girls school. Seriously, just watch the first few episodes, if you don't burst out laughing then you don't have a sense of humor. Try it.

It appeals more to the animu savvy crowd, though.
