Any fans of Hunter x Hunter? I just started watching it. Reminds me enough of Yu Yu Hakasho to compel me to keep watching.

[Sindain]

First version or the remake?

Haven't watched the remake but the first version I'm a pretty big fan of and it was one of the first animes I watched. Felt it went kinda blegh during the last two OVAs though.

[Parsely]

I wasn't aware there was a reboot. As far as I'm aware I'm watching the original.

I wasn't aware there was a reboot. As far as I'm aware I'm watching the original.

The original ran on TV and OVAs from 1998-2004. The reboot started in 2011. So it should be easy to tell which one you are watching. Normally the new one is referred to as Hunter x Hunter 2011 to differentiate the two.

[Parsely]

I'm watching the reboot. Apparently its more faithful to the manga.

Oh man was able to stay up for the late airing for Kill La Kill. I loling through half of the 2 minute compilation up front. New OP and ED, things explained and lots are bared. 8D

[NobodyPro]

Which Kill la Kill subtitles do you all prefer, Kamui or Godrobe?

[Tellemurius]

Crunchyroll?

[Hawkfrost]

Which Kill la Kill subtitles do you all prefer, Kamui or Godrobe?

Kamui, because then I can pretend they are talking about Okami.
Also it just flows better, I think.

[Boksi]

Which Kill la Kill subtitles do you all prefer, Kamui or Godrobe?

Kamui, though Godrobe can be tempting when there're delays like for this episode. And they do have very nice typesetting.

Still, translating Kamui strikes me as unnecessary. It's a fictional object for which there is no preexisting english word for.

[aenri]

Which Kill la Kill subtitles do you all prefer, Kamui or Godrobe?

Daiz's subs - Underwater. So I guess it is Godrobes for me. It's not like Godrobes aren't made up word either. Also Daiz's typesetting rocks.

But I also liked Eotenas . After DUWANG I have a soft spot for trollsubs.

[Furtuka]

I prefer Kamui, the other one is nice to watch every once in a while to know what the translation is, but they don't flow as well for me.

[Boksi]

I just remembered, some people on /a/ had been speculating about chakras being something of importance in Kill la Kill, and this last episode really confirmed that with the bath scene. I only have some old picture detailing it, though.

It's just a silly visual effect in a show full of silly visual effects

Hey all...
Got some manga to share...

1: WARNING NSFW, Quite Ecchi. Lots of TnA...

Dragons Rioting - http://www.mangahere.com/manga/dragons_rioting/
Plot - As a young child the Main Character discovered that he was "allergic" to Eroticism. Yeah, allergic, he litrually could die from being aroused. Think about that for a moment. Done? OK... Anyway, his Martial Arts Father (naturally) takes him away from civilization to train him in a special style that will allow him to control his desires and such, allowing him to do things quite inhuman as well such as boosting his stamina and immune system or such. Anyway, when it was time to advance to High School, he aimed to go to an All Boys School and chose the one which contained the MOST MANLIEST NAME EVER, cause of course that means that its an All Boys School right. Well not this one, turns out, it was orginally an All Girl School that only just started accepting males to become co-gender. The reason that it has the MOST MANLIEST NAME EVER is cause its a school where combat between the students is common, in fact so common that it day to day things. More so is that of 3 different factions forming in the school. Oh and also in a bit of a Three Kingdoms style thing each faction is lead by a unique leader. Anyway MC meets Main Female Lead who is the underdog and due to his martial prowess, she begs him to teach her in his ways to become the strongest (did I mention the Three Kingdoms feel, her "Generals" are quite liturally the female forms of Gaunyu and Zangfei.). Long story short, its a comedy as you watch this guy attempt to avoid all the female curves and such around him by using martial arts to achieve crazy things, along with this combat school battlefield...
8/10 Comedy/Ecchi. Yeah...


ANYWAY

Jitsu wa Watashi - http://www.mangahere.com/manga/jitsu_wa_watashi_wa/
Plot - Main Character, can not lie, no seriously, he fails at even bluffing in Old Maid. He can't hold a secret and his face is too sincere that nearly everyone knows when he is attempting to lie or avoid the truth. Now imagine this guy finding out that his Crush is in fact A VAMPIRE. What? Got weird? Yeah, stick around. It gets better. Oh yeah, despite how obvious he is about his feelings for her to everyone else, she is dense and as bad as he is. But here is the twist. Her Dad put down a rule, she could attend this Human School as long as she kept her true identity a secret. Dun dun Dun!!! Prepare for a weird case of WTF moments in this too when you find out that the Main Character's Childhood friend is the Head of the Schools Newspaper and is pure evil, there is in fact an Alien hiding amougst the classmates (won't tell you how) and a few more things that keep causing this guy who can't keep a secret struggle to even hide everything...
