Anime Nation

Gundams always look like toys for kids, major reason to stay away...
Not to mention its a mainstream anime made to please the masses...
Evangelion does absolutely nothing to please its fans, actually gainax doesnt need to please the fans, just do what they do best...

you really hate gundam, with all your heart!!!:laugh:
im 27 and maybe I still a kid inside, well thats what my wife says
 
And soul...
And naruto too, the more popular things are, the more i love to hate them...
Only reason i watch bleach is cause i dont read the manga and i am watching from day 1, i like it so i wont stop watching and there's never fillers for me either...
 
i enjoy naruto raw story and "some" action scenes, all else is shit.Bleach too
 
How about one piece??
I got one of the movies one of this days and i hatted it downright, didnt even watch it, it completely turned me down...

You touch my Aquiles Heel,I LOVE ONE PIECE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IS MY SHOUNEN ANIME
 
GUYS I GOT GO SEE IN THE NEXT EP. :rockout:
 
How can you love that character design, characters where ugly in that movie, like something out of popeye...
 
Cartoons are Cartoons BECAUSE they are a representation of real life. Not a video recording.

My taste in Anime is very similar to my taste in games. Artistic style counts for more than realism in my book. One Peice, Like Akira Toriyama's Dragonball before it, Has a unique artistic style that sets it apart from other shows..

also One Piece is funny.

AND SCARY,
I enjoy every single joke from eiichiro oda is awesome, i think that he can combine everything so well that each character is complete different and unique.
one piece till now has been great.
 
One Piece is to-date the only Anime with decent filler. Funnily enough its the only big anime that has a significant comedy element.
 
+1, i watched the one piece anime like it was it the original manga, cant say the same about narushito and bleashit. :mad:
luffy is what i call the true legacy of goku but a lot funnier.
i cant imaging Akira T. and E. Oda joining forces.......

2010 was mostly a disappointing year for me. Not much good stuff came out. Evangelion movie and a couple series. Most was just cliched, rehashed, teenage boy targeted garbage.

Or mediacoder.

TheLaughingMan said:
Am I the only one that doesn't watch the brand spanking new stuff? Every time I come here is just stuff that came out like last week. I tend to purposely stay roughly a year behind so I don't subject myself to medocre stuff that is just "ok" by anime standards. I broke that rule and watched Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood to confirm that I need to stop listening to a friend's recommendations, but no more.

It just seems everyone here only wants the new and shiny and watch everything just cause it is anime. Or am I just being harsh or incorrect due to being little more than a passer by?

No, you are correct. Most here jump on everything as it comes out, just because it is anime. I don't do that. I will only watch something if it has a good story, and something that makes it stand out somehow. Lots of low standards around here. No offense to anyone. And I won't watch stuff unless it's finished anymore. I tend to just wait for the BD/DVD rip releases before I grab and watch something.

Then you are missing the best comedy in years: Kore wa zombie
The most original and refreshing anime this season that is not moe: Level E
And best anime of the year candidate Madoka with best animation and best music...
Kimi ni todoke is a nice romance that isnt moe or harem either
Fractale an original Noitamina hasnt started yet, keep an eye on it...

Xilisoft is a great software but not free, in free mode only allows to convert 5m



Because like Mussels says: most of us have already WATCHED the old stuff...
And got nothing else to watch but to wait for the new stuff...

Then get a hobby that isn't watching anime to pass time until something decent releases.

the 00 movie was good, but... the ending was shite.

almost evangelion levels of shite.

The evangellion endings are awesome. They are a giant fuck you to everyone.

Evangelion was 99% angst 1% anime.

I'm going to power watch Gundam when my exams are over (end of this month) starting with the main story line. So i don't know jack squat about Gundam. Which brings me to my question, is victory Gundam bad? or is it just fanboy nerdrage that has it rated pretty much the worst Gundam series (in the main storyline) because a lot of main characters die in it.

And still 100% better than even the best Gundam crap ever produced. How sad is that?

And I never actually watched One Piece. I mean, I've seen a few eps, but never a serious amount. There's just too much of it for me to start now. Had I been watching it from the beginning, I think I may have liked it. It doesn't seem to take itself seriously, unlike Naruto and Bleach. I hate those 2 anime with a passion. They are the anime equivalent of the guy you know that is just trying way too hard to be awesome, and just ends up looking like an idiot.

But there are decent releases like Madoka, Level-E, Fractal and Wandering son, these are the best of the season...
Fractale looks taken from Miyasaki's book...
My hoby is playing fallout new vegas after i got bored with borderlands...
I only watch 2-3 anime episode of anime every day and when i have any...
 
When you feel like drinking beer, you don't find soda to drink. You don't eat candy when you feel like smoking, unless you want to cure your addiction.

You can't have an objective opinion on something when you haven't at least watched the 1st EP.

I have a TV but i don't watch "TV". I use Netflix and watch fansubbed anime.

New anime broadcast 1 EP per week. Usually, there are 3 or 4 anime that's worth to watch each season. That's 3 or 4 EPs of anime per week!

I'm sure everyone here has something to look forward to every week, some kind of shows on TV, but with me that's anime.

The last time i watched TV? 6 years ago.
 
I read the LEVEL-E manga years ago. Its gong to be weird and worth checking out.

I think its incorrect that they have watched all the old anime. IMPOSSIBLE. I think its more like they watch whatever they can get off their favorite tracker and dont even look for decent anime to watch.

I can name a dozen anime from the early 1990's and I bet Mussels hasnt watched most of them.

and i can name a dozen shows that are more recent, that you havent watched :P


i watch everything i can get my hands on, that is relevant to my interests. of course i havent watched everything, because some of them are boring and shite.
 
I just watched a pretty good one called blood. However the story was a bit short and honestly wasn't very deep. But I watch Anime for the gore. So for me its like watching Godzilla for the character development.

+ a live action movie.. I really liked the live action movie. I fell in love with the animated movie when it came out.. The anime.. Blood+ was all right.. I think I might have to relive it.. I think I might of missed a few episodes somewhere..
 
The movie was properly dark whereas the anime was good but certainly felt tamer. Was totally hooked on it at the time though. As Cold Storm pointed out, definitely worth watching the live action movie, it certainly doesn't dissapoint.
