Silly Neo, the point of magic tricks is that you don't see through them. What are you, a critic?


Oh wait. Never mind.

Well they do show them, but they are usually done using whatever wacky gadget they can pull from their butts.

Hence why I called it "Magical technology"

Since APPERANTLY masks that completely disguise you as someone else, perfect voice copy modulators, and junk like that... All exists.
All of these things are in Conan whenever Kaitou shows up though?  Heck Conan uses a perfect voice copying device all the time.

Yeah but they long since established it rather then just pulling it out of their butts after the fact.

But to admit I didn't stay long enough to see the actual mystery. For all I know the mystery does things proper.

This was written way before Aoyama decided to make a realistic murder mystery series and as such the breeaks from reality are much more common. Hell, Kaito has an IQ of 400, which was proven through DNA testing. Basically, just go along with it.

Also, he doesn't have a voice modulator.  He's just that good.

I should really be watching some new anime. Finished Redline a few days ago and that was a brilliant mix of nuts and awesome.
But with that out of the way, there is the backlist to pay attention to. But I can't be bothered going through like ten different anime. Don't suppose you guys have any ideas for me? I tried watching Coppelion and while it was entertaining I couldn't go through five episodes before getting bored and just finishing up Kill la Kill.
What animes have just been finished?

tl;dr looking for teh new animes, pls halp

Death Parade; The less you know about it going in, the better. Also, watch the prequel Death Billiards first.

Does Knights of Sidonia count as recent? Because that show was pretty good.

I'll watch anything really.
It's just I still have the Steins;Gate movie to watch, along with 5cm, Puella Magi however you spell it and Railgun. That's literally only scratching the surface.
But thanks for the two suggestions, they're going in the to-watch list.

JoJo's bizarre adventure (2012-2015) if you're not already watching it...

Some good airing shows:

Is JoJo any good? I hear it's good, but I also heard that it has a nazi who's portrayed as a good guy in it, so I can't really be sure on that.

Echo that. Jojo's definitely one of the best bits of anime the industry's produced to date.

It does, indeed, have a good guy cyborg nazi, though.

It's Jojo's Bizarre Adventure for a reason.

Several reasons, really.

For one, one of the main characters is a pug dog, and not a talking one to boot.

Holy shit Death Parade is pretty damn good. Just finished episode three, and that is quite a very brilliant plot twist. This has gotten my approval.

I would argue that the first two parts (Phantom Blood and Battle Tendency) are better than the currently running Stardust Crusaders, but yes it is good in a over the top shounen manly men fighting series.

The Nazi is less of a "Nazi's are awesome!" and more of a "You are a good guy regardless of being a Nazi, so we will let that slide for now because more important things are going down" kind of thing.

I'm glad you like it. So far I would hazard it's the best show currently running, unless it completely and suddenly drops the ball for some reason.

I dunno if he's really good, it's just that sometimes his love of Nazi Germany happens to put him on the same side as the protagonists (and sometimes it doesn't).
