Dang it! Make a Phoenix Wright anime already!

Heck forget the Phoenix Wright Vs. Prof Layton game... turn THAT into an anime!

Has anyone ever felt somewhat disapointed by crossovers where the main supporting character isn't even in it? For example in Phoenix Wright Vs. Prof Layton there is no Edgeworth as far as I am aware... it just isn't the same without him.

No game is the same without Edgeworth.  Except Ace Attorney Investigations.  Since...he's the main character in those.

Well, depends on what you like.

The only thing I'm certain they have that's good is Afro Samurai, which is mostly just an entertaining, very bloody hack 'em up (it does have some depth, just not a lot). Resurrection is considerably worse, sadly.

I think they might have Samurai Champloo, which is somewhat similar but a lot longer, more plot-containing, and with less blood. I'd pretty much recommend it to anyone, unlike Afro Samurai, but again I'm not sure if they have it.

They've also got Samurai Seven, which is an over-the-top anime adaptation of Seven Samurai featuring giant mechs and robots. I liked it, but depending on this and that it might not be your thing.

Finally, there's Casshern. I'm honestly not even sure why I like it, and it's got a lot of tropes I'm sure are very easy to hate (amnesiac regenerating hero who goes into a berserk kill-frenzy when pushed too far, wandering world trying to figure out what went wrong angst etc). It's got a very retro feel to it, somehow, with the main character's outfit reminding me a lot of Speed Racer. Anyway, I like it, but that's probably extremely a matter of taste.


Also, if you meant Clannad, Hetalia, and Queensblade were things you've already seen and liked, you might like Witchblade and/or Claymore. They're both fanservicey action things, though I hear Witchblade does have some semblance of a plot to it.

So I guess I'm watching Fate/Zero, Boku wa Tomodachi ga Suzunai, Un-Go, Horizon, and Mirai Nikki somehow.  I kind of just went around picking shows this season to keep up to date on because why noooooooot.  Read some more Boku wa Tomodachi ga Suzunai manga too and the english subs for episode two of Mirai Nikki are out too now so yaaaaaaaah.

None of this matters though because I have th rest of today free and some awesome Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei to get through and maybe I'll make progress in Tsukihime?  Who knows.  God only knows.  Lalalala DRUM DRUM DRUM

I need to watch the TWGOK anime later toooooo

hmpf

EDIT:
Sorry I accidently posted it early and someone managed to respond to something I said at lightspeed so now this is even more broken.



The mangaka who wrote/drew Mirai Nikki (ESUNO Sakae) has started a new manga called 'Big Order' which started this month and it's being published in the exact same magazine.  Fun stuff.  I'm looking forward to future chapters to go crazy over.

Oh, and before I leave into the depths of DESPAIR and DREAM DIARIES I still have more VNs to do after Tsukihime.  I still have CLANNAD, Sengoku Rance, THE REST OF UMINEKO 8, THE REST OF FATE/HOLLOW NEVER COMING OUT, Tsukihime Plus+Disc, Kagetsu Tohya, Melty Blood, G-Senjou no Maou, Sharin no Kuni, Ever17, all of his friends, all of their friends, everything.

And the Fate/zero LN is going swimmingly.  Volume 4 is soul crushing.  Everything is soul-crushing.  KOTOMINEEEEEEEE

Seeing that scene in the anime will be orgasmic.

If I had the time I could talk forever.

How do you plan to organize all that and integrate it in your schedule, with your studies also becoming a larger factor in your life than it ever was before?

Let me finish my post argh.

Let me rephrase that.  No I think I should do what I enjoy on my off-time.  As I read in Fate/zero, a person who "does what he needs to" instead of "does what he wants to" is just a machine.

Also, episode 2 of Mirai Nikki was great.  Even if asread's animation is wonky sometimes

It's still pretty awesome.

My favorite anime is DBZ.
Contains lots of fighting and stuff, which is why I like it.

So the main character in Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei, Nozomu, has the same voice actor as Shinji Matou.  Dammit Hiroshi Kamiya.  Why do you play with my heart.  I knew I liked him immediately for no reason because HE'S SHINJI-BAKA.

:D

He's pretty much the SHAFT MC voice actor. Araragi in Bakemono, Recruit in Arakawa, Nozomu in SZS. He's definitely at his best with Nozomu by the 3rd season, although I really like him as Takashi in Natsume Yuujinchou.

I enjoyed it quite a bit, but then again I don't know how it stacks up to the manga.

He also did Otonashi from Angel Beats!, which I found humorous.

Anyone else read the manga "Bakuman"? I didn't think it would be that interesting.

I read to around chapter 40 and stopped because it didn't hold my interest at all, sadly.

Almost finished with Girlfriend of Steel 2/Angelic Days manga for NGE. Just need to find the last volume somewhere.

Neat manga series, the portrayals are nice, and I think the personalities are a believable result from canon if the various situations came to pass (except maybe Rei).

Also, if the general idea behind Gendo's and Yui's history is true as portrayed in the manga, then yeah, no freaking wonder Shinji is messed up.

Also, Gendo likes cats. (Tremble, mortals, and despair!)
