I'm with you 100% on GitS. Guyver was the first anime that got me into wanting to watch more anime, where as GitS was the movie that started it for me. I love that movie, and all the others that have followed.. I haven't seen the blu-ray burn yet... I might grab it since in a few mins, after I eat and rest from getting off work a few mins ago, I'll be getting a ps3.

As for Sky Crawler, I'll have to look into that.. Might be something I want.. but I gotta keep it to a min or what I grab.. I'm almost out of space.. Next stop is for me to get a NAS so I be :rockout:

I never mentioned but the director for sky crawlers, Mamoru Oshi did gits and many other awesome movies, like angel's egg...

OMG! just saw Spice and Wolf 1 (where do they come up with these silly names?) And really loved it, the opening song is a definite must have as well.

I am so looking forward to watching Spice and Wolf 2

And this is SO going into my DVD collection...

07 Ghost just left me wanting more!!! Troll ep is always good.

I've seen a few 07 Ghost, and think it's a good anime so far on what I've seen.

I really need to watch Hitman Reborn & Soul Eater... But those are some 100+ things that I just don't have time for! lol

Just come to an end of another series of Spice & Wolf - quite likey but these series's are too short & dont really progress much at all.

still - it managed to score a rating of 8.8 out of 10 on Anidb so I suppose lots of people loved it as well despite bland it was - there were a few twists n turns in the story however but there wasnt too much drama,

really slow paced. I hope series 3 is better.

Reborn i think is still going, i watched like 20ep before stopping, i always thought about giving up on it, but deep down it was kinda fun but in the end i did not watch it and stopped before it was to late...

Soul eater on the other hand is a lot better, a lot more action packed, a lot of uniqueness, you should check it out...

There's Also D.Gray Man, very good shounen anime...

I got D. Gray Man on the hdds, just haven't watched it yet.. I don't know if I have the full anime, but I know I got quite abit of the episodes... which reminds me.. gotta watch the new Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood..

MKmods · Oct 3, 2009

I LOVED(spice and wolf) pt 1, but last night I watched pt2 and really didnt like it.

Pt 1 was even and had the nice song and was realistic (as realistic as a wolf god in a girls body can be, lol)

But in Pt 2 there are 2X when the guy does something I couldnt even fathom doing to someone I cared about and that completely turned me off to it. I dont know if I would even watch the 3rd part.
I most certainly will be buying the first part though to add to the collection.

the ending of D. grayman will ruin the whole series. Or at least thats what it did for me - I watched it all through once & I refused to watch it again & I enjoyed the series an aweful fucking lot

djisas · Oct 3, 2009

Not really...

The only bad think is that there is no end...

Yeah, I remember that their where words on the fact of how the ending of D Gray Man was... I'll have to watch it still.. lol.. I hate endings unless it's a movie! :roll:

thats the point i was trying to make - those last few words at the end just make whatevers happend since a totally pointless endevour. I try not to look at the side that people say it gets repetative after a while because of all the character developments & side stories they go thorugh before progressing with the main storyline.

I got mad - I flew into a rage, I threw a few hard drives at the wall & I deleted the series.

MKmods · Oct 3, 2009

Thanks for bringing up d gray man, I found it online and there are over 100 episodes (so it should keep me busy for a while)

LOL, nice to see I am not alone in my attachment to these stories...

FreedomEclipse · Oct 3, 2009

If you guys are serious about watching d. grayman - id highly suggest that your better off reading the manga

the manga explains a lot more & generally progresses further then the point where they choose to end it in the anime.

well its not so much my attachment. but if an anime drags you through 100 30min episodes & ends it with a completely bum ending which makes the 100 episodes you watched totally meaningless - can you honestly sit there in that chair & tell me that you wont get mad??

I swear my pulse was going over 9000.....

MKmods · Oct 3, 2009

LOL, when series are longer they have much more time to develop the characters and we have more time to develop a connection with them.

I really like the 12 ep ones as it seems to be the best size for me. Not as short as a movie and not as long as Bleach.

For me I enjoy watching for the story and character development, I am EXTREMELY jealous at the amount of creativity they have in even coming up with the stories in the first place.

I have a cure for that!!
Soul eater
It has a beginning, development and eventually ends, although the final battle wasnt at the epic level id like it be, it was still a good conclusion...

now, I tend to dislike extremely short series's because writers/animators try to cram as much story as they can in each episode so it seems rushed. but there are animes out there that are rediculously short but work out very very well. FateStay Night being one (god i love saber :love:

)

Yeah, I gotta watch that.. but need to watch the rest of Bleach.. lol.. Got tons to watch, and got a ps3.. lol..

on a side note.. Is there a new bleach movie?? I see on Anime Media Bleach:fade to Black

djisas · Oct 3, 2009

I told a page ago, i think, the 3rd movie DVD got released on 30/09 and subs are out alover the place, although we still missing db's one, it seems the PUNCH version is good...
I might watch it tomorow...

Side note, soul eater is awesome visually with awesome battles...

Letterbee was one ep and was a complete story...
Tokyo Marble Chocolate is another such anime only 2 ep long, its a kind of love story told first from the guy's perspective and then from the girl's perspective...
Some cases of short anime working...
Another one Hoshi no Koe, a short 30m movie with only 2 characters and it was HUGE success, it was one of Makoto Shinkai's masterpieces...
