it was more suggestive than bad. (didnt show much)

I havent figured how to get anime like you guys do so I just go to AnimeSeason and watch what they have.

PS: guys I have disk 3 of Ai Yori Aoshi (I bought it because I sent my personal one to Netflix by mistake but Netflix returned my disk) I tried selling it at eBay a couple times but no buyers.

If any of you want it I would be happy to give it to you as a gift, just let me know if ur interested.
(has episodes 11-15)

this thread has been a HUGE help to me.

Has anyone watched vexille, if so, is it any good?

vexille was craaaaap, i wrote a hate filled review many pages back.

summary: the tiny plot is full of holes, its more usless than a butterfly net for catching attention.

Yeah, I rented it via netflix right when it came out... Animation was good, but the story just tore it all to shreads.. lol.. If you look at my work log, or was it my GTX Hr3 log, the video that was playing on my living room tv was Vexille..

If your getting it for yourself.. Don't bother... but if it's streamed.. watch it a bit.. I say after 20 mins you'll think the story just craps it all out..

Kimi is of my favorite anime of all time. Enough so that I bought it.

I just saw part 4 (Il finish up the rest tonight) and I must say it looks like I am gonna be sad for weeks with this one. I can tell I am gonna need a lot of cheering up after this fricken series.

Netflix sent me the first 3 DVDs of Fate: Stay Night, Il see that tomorrow after I finish Kimi.

EDIT: ok here is a HUGE WTF! moment for me....Kimi ga Nozomu Eien OVA :wtf:

The reg Kimi started off making me sad than the sadness turned to being pissed off but I sat through the rest of the episodes anyways.

I thought what the hell il see the OVAs, sorry Wile E we are of different minds on this series..
(it goes to the bottom of my list)

Hey, Mk. I'm trying out Fate Stay as well from other sources, and enjoying it so far. What do you think?

Its ok
I have been watching anime from other sources and REALLY appreciate the fact that I can, however this was a DVD and I must say the picture quality and soundtrack is so much nicer it makes it better to watch.

("Whisper of the heart" is another thats beautiful to watch and listen to)

I have a Blood+ game in my phone. Considering I haven't watched it yet I barely have any idea about the characters and the creatures.

WHAT!?! Got any more info? ie what phone? name of game? How have i not found out about this!

And yeah - vampires> schoolgirl> sadness> not wanting to get past half way through the series> getting past that difficult part> loving the end of the series is basically what most people remember about the series (that is if they finish it, the middle is very difficult to get past).

Cold Storm · Sep 25, 2009

I gotta rewatch Blood+.... I skipped back and forth on the anime and just need to watch it all the way threw!

its a good anime but its not great, the anime clearly has a 'target' & it knows how to achieve it but it decided to drag you through the same repetative or in some cases pointless shit for a good 70-80% of series. certain discoveries early on in the series trigger certain events that are still triggering the same events 20-40 episodes later & they still havent reached a conclusion. then the final plot kicks in & its all over

secondly the soundtrack must be boring as fuck. they played the same fucking opera song in almost every episode after they discoverd the plot really early on & theres no variation what so ever.

Its worth 1 watch then you can delete it - its not crap. its actually quite good for what it is, but its so badly let down by very minor issues.

I liked it for it's true to life honesty. These are the types of tragedies you see IRL. As far as the OVAs, they are alternate timeline/reality. They don't actually follow the original series. The OVAs were actually kind of crap, tbh. Just so we're on the same page, the series itself is known as Rumbling Hearts in the US. I recommend it for a good tragedy/drama with little to no action.

As far as finding ways to watch high quality anime via alternate means, give me a PM, and I can try to walk you thru the process. I have a 720p version of Fate Stay Night that was acquired in this manner that is of sunning quality, for instance.

MKmods · Sep 25, 2009

I would hate life to be like that, had I made my GF (especially someone I claimed to love) feel so bad she would randomly have sex with someone else I could never forgive myself.
And if a friend of mine took advantage of her I would return the favor by removing his legs and hands.
(I was REALLY pissed, good thing it was a cartoon)

I just started watching Claanad (much better to me)

And I know I keep repeating it but :toast:

for all the help Wile E.

entropy13 · Sep 25, 2009

The game is titled the same, Blood+, it's made by Glu Mobile. An Animax logo pops up as well at the start. It's not in Glu Mobile's website though...

I got the game through um..."other" means through some site.

Cold Storm · Sep 25, 2009

for the last two mornings i've woke up to the fma: brotherhood opening that was on from episode 1-14... glad i gotta find that tune!!

For those who like vampire animes, Vampire knight should suit your taste, Karin if you look for some fun, hellsing for one of the best in the genre, Trinity blood is awesome too but doesnt have the schoolgirl part, Tsukuyomi: Moon Phase is also quite good and Vampire Hunter D if you want a classic...

Good to see you like Clannad, keep enjoying it, it is all very pretty in season 1, when you watch season 2 prepare yourself...

Gzero · Sep 25, 2009

Yay just finished Macross F. Was fun.

Vampire Knight + Guilty was disappointing (just didn't go anywhere).

djisas · Sep 25, 2009

Try watch Macross Zero now that you watched Macross F...

With season 1 I never laughed so hard before (or cried). Than I got to ep 9 in season2 and had to quit. I enjoyed the "flow" of season 1 but season 2 seems different, almost tacked on.

While taking a break I went to read the descriptions in Wiki for season 2 and decided I would not subject myself to hours of misery that were sure to follow.

Its amazing to me what effect these silly cartoons can have.

djisas · Sep 25, 2009

The ending makes for all the misery that will come, if you endured Kimiga Nozomu eien, you should be able to complete this...

You have no idea yet...

Try watching higurashi no naku koru ni, the first 5 seconds of the first ep will tell you if u have what it takes to watch it...

And since you are watching dramas there's 3 good ones for you but less miserable, they are Ef - Tales of memories and tales of melodies, 12 ep each, very beautiful story and true tears another beautiful story...

Just found me something really good, one of those rare pieces you dont see so often, Letter Bee: Light and Blue Night Fantasy, not expecting anything special i found out it was really good to watch...
I like this kind of anime, rare jewels like kakurenbo, noiseman, Angel`s Egg, Letter bee now and some others in the past, sometimes they turn out to be more fun than anything else you might be watching...

Its just 27m long, Letter Bee is easily available, check it out and see if you guys like it...

Vampire knight is the only manga that i've read quiet a few books of (also watched both series)

- i've nearly finished karin and i already did hellsing too (so yeah, i do like vamp anime it seems). I'll check out Trinity blood when im done with my current watch list and i'll then look into the other two

Yeah, I starting to like the second beginning of it also.. I really liked Gundam 00's music. My parents thought I was crazy since I was streaming it threw the house speakers.. :roll:

I forgot to turn it off in their room this morning and my dad woke up to it.. :laugh:

kid41212003 · Sep 26, 2009

Lol, isn't Vampire Knight abit too girly and cheesy?

Cold Storm · Sep 26, 2009

I think after listening to more of Yui's music... I'm moving to Japan, and becoming a fan that will FALL in love with her! lol.. Nah, I just can say I love it.. Really do.. lol
