Just double post. Happens in Mafia all the time.

So, anyone seen Samurai 7? It's about samurai who cut 50-foot tall mechas in half with wait don't go it's better than it sounds.  It's more or less Seven Samurai in anime form, which means it's somehow interesting in spite of said ridiculousness. Or at least, I wasn't bothered by it.

I watched it.
The general interpretation of the story wasn't as good as the original or Magnificent Seven, but it made up for it with aforementioned ridiculosity and awesomeness.

Oh god it's even better than I had imagined. The rumours of there being no producer turned out to be false too, which is excellent. This show is due 24-26 episodes, so for 24 minutes a week for the next 6 months I will be experiencing brain frying levels of moe and the heart attacks that come with it. I don't think I've ever seen a better way of introducing all the girls.

So far Saint Seiya: The Lost Canvas isn't really all that bad

Sure the battles are REALLY boring, they keep making things up on the spot, they make large sections of the show pointless by future events, they kill people off like Candy, The main hero is steriotypical, tons of plotholes, and is rather derivative.

But It seems decent enough. Not enough that I'd think I would have got a "Bad anime" suggestion to see it (it is average). It isn't even all that confusing really when you recognise some things as plotholes.

Except Episode 6... I hated that one...

Unless this was suggested because it is confusing... but it all seems rather straight forward.

When I finish R1 of Code Geass, I'll take a break to watch something else again, maybe some Lucky Star.

HERESY. AFTER YOU FINISH R1 YOU WILL FEEL COMPELLED TO WATCH AND FINISH R2. THERE IS NO NEGOTIATION HERE. IT WILL HAPPEN.

And yes, you will feel much, much worse for Shirley.

D:

I just hope she gets some sort of reward for all the shit the Geassverse has thrown at her so far.

She'll pull through, right?

Right?

Suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuure.

R1 Episode 19.

Fanservice that doesn't drown me in panty shots and matrix boobs!

Still annoyed by it, but thank God it isn't like HSoTD.

Haha, Kururugi's boned (never liked him much anyways), and Viva La Revolution!

Also, I wonder how the Ashford Academy bunch'll think of all this war.

I expect moving and shit, and Kallen's identity being compromised but being overshadowed by all that war.

Also, WTF is with Ohgi and Vilette?! I hope that bitch gets whats coming to her.

I miss Jeremiah...

We all miss Jeremiah. =(
Vilette is only ~67% bitch.She becomes less of a minor character later.

Watched a lot of Neon Genesis Evangelion today.  Watched episode 11-18 so far.  This is really really good, like great.  I might even finish the tv series today if this keeps up.  Episodes 21-24 I have are director's cut versions, they're a bit longer for some reason but that's alright, the more the better.

Wait! You must be warned, a lot of people have issu-

Watched episodes 20-26 of Neon Genesis Evangelion, which means I'm done with the tv series.  I've heard that the last two episodes have no budget but actually watching it is a totally surreal experience.  I'll watch the stuff you pretty much have to watch tomorrow.  It's too late now and I don't have time.  Although I already know I'm going to have a hard time sleeping after watching the 2nd half of NGE in one day, man this is gonna be a depressing sleep.

I guess I'll give my review now.

Although the show was really good and I enjoyed it vastly...

Spoiler: spoilers spoilers spoilers (click to show/hide)

the ending just spirals out of control with countless characters just dying and a deep feeling of emptiness, hollowness, and most importantly, incompleteness.  There's a lot of things unresolved and I don't even feel like listing them.  I'm guessing the movies resolve this issue so I can't wait to watch them and feel better about myself.

Well, that is a better reaction than most people, but you really should have waited for the warnings. Now, the next thing you need to watch out for is EoE...

Just be sure to watch both Rebuild movies after.

The ending of the first series broke my heart/brain/soul.

I'm guessing the movies resolve this issue so I can't wait to watch them and feel better about myself.

Good luck with that.

That's exactly why. Now you should really just sit down and take it slo-

So I watched the first part in End of Evangelion.  It was exactly what a wanted, a continuation after episode 24 that actually makes sense.  They even call it Episode 25: Air at the beginning.  Time for the second part now, that was great.

Yeah, but the second part is what you need to watch out for. Remember, slow-

Finished End of Evangelion.  Hahaha aaaaahhhh that was enjoyable.  Going to watch the two Rebuild of Evangelion movies now.

DAMNIT. What is wrong with you!? You're supposed to let it sink in! The Rebuild movies really change things up, but if you pay close attention, they should be really enjoyable.

Watched Evangelion: 2.0 You Can (Not) Advance.  Was really great and awesome.  Unlike Rebuild 1.0 this one diverges from the tv series plot much much more.  I'm sad now because I finished watching all the Neon Genesis Evangelion currently but I always have the many adaptions and other series to do now as well.  While I do other things Rebuild 3.0 will be made kehekehekehe.

Man why can't I feel like this all the time, endless possibilities.  Like my behavior has done a complete 180 in the last 2 years.  Instead of always dwelling in the same and boring I keep on doing new and interesting things.  It's so much fun.

Glad you liked it. Welcome to the wonderful world of Evangelion. NOW PROVE YOUR WORTH AS AN EVA FAN AND DOWNLOAD ALL OF THE EVA SKINS FOR YOUR BROWSER! DO IT!

Hey, ToonyMan, want a hug? Maybe some Tang?

No I'm fine.  I've been expecting this for awhile.

Aww, customary hug and tang jokes and I wasn't able to give them... oh well. Lillith still gives the best hugs.

A Soul Eater AMV that uses Marlyn Manson's version of "This is Halloween."  Exceedingly creepy.  Doubt I'll ever watch the anime, but I sure can't stop watching this vid *cowers in terror*

I've watched that at least a dozen times.
Sooo coool.

One of the best AMVs in my opinion. I've only got about four or five others that I consider in the same league. Should we start an AMV thread?

Blood-C is a collaboration between Production IG and CLAMP, which is one hell of a combination. It's set in the Blood universe, with nothing to do with the movie and Blood+, although I assume it will have some relation at some stage. I thought the first episode was great, especially the fight scene at the end. I can't remember the last time i've seen something with such fluid animation without using shitty CG. It really was that good. The art in general is fantastic, especially the character designs which are the usual CLAMP noodle people that crossover from their other works.

I had no idea about this, thank you for bringing it to my attention.

[ToonyMan]

@Chaoswizkid:
Like hell I would slow down.  When I find something good I devour it.

Also, just to put it into perspective, I watched episodes 11-26, End of Evangelion, and both Rebuild movies without sleeping, all in a row.

I didn't actually go to sleep last night, I just went to bed at 5pm and woke up around 12am.  Although it's 1am making this post.  I think I might have did more than I can handle because I'm feeling pretty depressed now...like I feel so unmotivated.

Hrrrrrm nothing feels right anymore.

EDIT:
Time to read the Elfen Lied manga?

[Acanthus117]

Oh god not Elfen Lied

[quinnr]

Oh god not Elfen Lied

Am I not the only one who watched the first ten minutes and went "Gee, I don't think this is an anime I can see myself enjoying."?

[Acanthus117]

Nah, it's all the squick that got me.

[ToonyMan]

Also, The Beast II from the Rebuild 2.0 OST is fucking awesome.

EDIT:
In My Spirit too of course!  Man there are so good.

You have never said a truer thing, ToonyMan. Even the fundamental laws of the universe are less true than that statement.

I crunched some numbers earlier  Apparently each When They Cry game averages to about 151,000 words and since I've played all 16 (well half of the 16th one) that would come to a total of 2,416,000 words.

That's over double the total length of the Harry Potter series.  Now I feel a little impressed by my reading.

[Chaoswizkid]

From the way that discussion was going, you make it sound like it was the squick that drew you in. It was, wasn't it?

That is pretty impressive. I easily beat that with a few fanfiction authors though. Charles Bhepin is a god amongst men, and I'm sure I can find a few more to round out the number. Bhepin's got around a mil just by himself.

Someone just rec'd it one day and I was like 'sure'

And then I was never the same again

You're never the same as you were after a lot of things.

That reminds me. Keep watching Code Geass. >=D
