I have the first episode on my hard drive, but I haven't watched it yet.  Looks okay.

The next two are on torrents.

One Piece 484 is out, too bad I'm holding myself from watching until my brother comes home.

Watching FMA Brotherhood on Adult Swim right now. Gotta say the new opening's grown on me.

This being Homestuck, I'm not sure whether that's post-scratch Rose or Vriska with a wig.

The first and third are my favorite.

Flcl defies logic worse than TTGL! my brain hurts.

Still awesome though.

Don't get FLCL?
Watch it again until you do.
Average numbers range from needing to rewatch it 6-10 times.

I saw an odd case of Japanese culture.

This girl wanted to be a detective but what she also wanted was to be married and have a family as well.

Oddly enough most of the characters took this as a contradiction. (When they tried to picture it, she was carrying her children onto cases)

Maybe there is something about being a Detective I just don't know.

If crime shows are to be believed, being a detective is full-time job that keeps you away from any sort of family matter.

Makes sense, though how much of that is dramatisation?

The occupation of babysitter does not exist in Japan, apparently.

Heh, I like how the mentions of Madoka Magica are slowly trickling in.

Indeed, it is a happy and heartwarming tale. The scriptwriter said so himself. "I will do my best to deliver a heartwarming, happy story to our viewers!"

Surely we B12ers can all do with some gentle heartwarming.

Hey, I just want everyone to know that Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica is a fun, light-hearted magical girl anime with uplifting and wonderful lessons for the whole family to enjoy. Watch it with your kids, it'll be a great experience.
I'd claim to be 'quoting for truth' but I'm pretty sure I'd get struck by lightning. At least twice. And I only watched the first episode.

Eh, it's not so long ago that people in the west would've had the exact same attitude.  I think of it as a kindof time displacement...

I'm looking for a new anime series to follow, any suggestions?

I have watched Death Note, Full metal Alchemist and Full Metal Alchemist: Brotherhood (which I prefer to the other one), and I'm still following Naruto Shippuuden and Bleach. I have watched One Piece but the flashbacks and fillers make me really pissed off, and I haven't watched it in a while. (Same thing with Naruto, too fucking many fillers. I'm still following the manga, but I'll look into the anime again after the filler season ends..)

Also some Studio Ghibli movies seen:

And I've liked all of those.

I've seen other movies (which I can't remember) and tried following some other animes, but I just haven't caught up to them.
If you need more info I most likely can give some.

Oh, i ncase you need to know, Death Note was awesome as was FMA:Brotherhood. Bleach & Naruto - They're okay, but since they're long series, they're going to get milked for money and thus they get stretched unnecessary long (flashbacks, filler episodes, repeating things in battles etc.)

Yeah... what sort of thing do you want to see?  Anything in particular you enjoy?
