steins;gate 0 has a worse pacing. It's driving me nuts.

 

[bubbleawsome]

Oh yeah, I need to start on Steinsgate for that depression

 

[kurosagi01]

Well I've just finished episode 2 last night of aot s3. Definitely getting interesting now

 

[StrayKAT]

you're meant to feel that way, keep watching and you learn more

I get that. But it's a big reason why I hate Shounen.. the myriad setbacks and problems.. I was only in it to hate Titans. Suddenly I realize I'll have to be to watching longer than I care to.

And yes, I can already tell Annie isn't the only Titan in disguise. This also blew it to me. And they couldn't even have the courtesy of giving a hint of her motivations at the end of Season 1. That's no way to do a cliffhanger.

Then again, maybe it's because I watched Galactic Heroes. According to this vid, I apparently ruined my liking for most anime. lol. I hope that's not true.

^ Number 13 at the 4 minute mark. Pretty funny vid in total btw..

I forgot to mention I watched Steins Gate after LoGH. That must've deceived me that there are a lot of great new anime. lol. It was like squeezing the last bit of droplets from a sponge.

Where do I even go from here?

 

[GoldenX]

Yeah, Gigguk is great, I love his Evabridged series.
Annie's motivations are going to be known much later, with all of that faction's justifications.
If you want new good series to look for, change genre.

Well, I figured I'd go back to LoGH's author.. and saw he had another novel series adapted. Heroic Legend of Arsland. So I'll give that a shot soon.

 

[Ahhzz]

The only "trapped in a fantasy world" I can tolerate is Konosuba.

I enjoyed the first SAO

 

[StrayKAT]

When I was going over anime to find, I was amazed just how many "transported to a fantasy world" anime there are. Wtf? I thought it was already a lot, with the few MMO anime I heard of. But it's so much more than that.

edit: Damnit, I'll just finish up Titan season 2. Heh. Seems to be shorter anyway.

That new GGO is pretty good, thanks to not having OPrito. Well, It's more of a normal action drama than an isekai.

His video pretty much summed me up quite nicely on my view of Anime lol

Relistened to some AoT soundtrack today, and I'm pretty sure it's got influences from Godzilla in there. The older songs also had some really tearing bass riffs going too, hope they keep that around.

Now I just wait for the s3 opening song to be released in full, I'm a huge fan of it.

 

[GoldenX]

I like the ending song, feels a lot like the first one.

 

[StrayKAT]

AoT soundtrack is pretty catchy, I admit.. although I don't know what you mean by Godzilla. It just reminded me of Symphonic Metal.

I probably should have walked away instead of watched season 2. Now I'm in it for the long haul. Damnit. It's gotten too complicated to simply walk away from. I have to know who the hell the monkey man dude is now.. or why the Colossus and Armored Titan kids were part of some separate faction of Titans.

 

[GoldenX]

Muehehehehe, I can spoil it for you with a single PM.

No one started a classic Best Girl War?

I guess I mean a modern interpretation of it. The new Shin Godzilla sounds similar, and is super obviously based on OG Godzilla. And I know what you mean, that's the main reason I'm sticking around too, a giant talking monkey titan is really something else. I'm also honestly a little miffed they haven't made it back to the basement yet but whatever, that's anime pacing for ya.

Asuka obviously.

Heh no thanks. I suppose Season 3 will be over in no time, and then I'll just marathon it.

Best Girl War? I couldn't decide. I learn towards the badass older women types. Revy from Black Lagoon maybe?

 

[jormungand]

I heard My Hero Academia is good. But I haven't rushed to watch yet, since it seems oriented towards younger audiences.

edit:
Haha.. btw.. Overlord is starting to piss me off, and I'm at the end of Season 2. I don't understand the motives of the lead/necromancer dude. He still treats everything as if he's in a game. Season 2 seemed to really amplify this, where he dominated over the Lizard people and almost forced that butler to kill the girl he rescued.

watch My hero Academia, the way is narrated is amazing ,not one episode got me bored. Its true that is oriented to younger audiences like you said but its really interesting as a shounen.
I would like to see more interesting seinen shows but not all are that great neither the shounen from nowadays (imo)
i was a kid when i watched Akira ( my first anime film) but always returned to watch Voltes V everytime i could. Then Dragon ball Z came to my life ........enough said..... 35 years and counting lol i still watching dragon ball super like a kid along with my 6 years old son.

Muehehehehe, I can spoil it for you with a single PM.

gonna join ...Chiquita from Jormungand , is like a mixture from Revy and Roberta

 

[GoldenX]

Asuka obviously.

Heh. You know, that war inside NERV has been going non-stop for over 20 years.

Mine is Akane Tsunemori from Psycho Pass.

 

[StrayKAT]

Cool. I found that they had made a "sequel" of sorts to LoGH.. Legend of the Galactic Heroes Gaiden, made later in the 90s. It's a bunch of short stories, most prequel. Runs about 50 episodes, so I'll be entertained.

Anyone else use HIDIVE? I only signed up to watch this. Not as big a selection as Crunchy Roll it seems.

One other great thing about the series is the heavy use of old classical music. That'll always win me over. That's partly why Carl Sagan's old Cosmos series will never be topped.. despite being scientifically outdated. And I don't think you could get all of the rights to music they did back then.

edit: Damn, it's just as good as the first one. Must be from the same novelist..

I'm used to density in novels, but it's so rare to see it in anime or shows. It's a real treat.

 

[GoldenX]

New two seasons Ghost in the Shell anime for 2019, from the same people that did Stand Alone Complex.

 

[StrayKAT]

Cool. Is it old Makoto or based off of Arise (I don't mind that either)?

I saw that you were watching Steins Gate 0. Is that good? The whole premise didn't exactly interest me.. I loved the Mad Scientist persona.. didn't want to see him change.

 

[GoldenX]

It has worse pacing than the original, but a lot of potential. I heard from a friend that finished the visual novel, that they choose a weird way to adapt it, but it's finally on its way. He said the ending is great.

GinS seems be something new, not Arise nor SAC.

Cool, I won't miss it. I even sat through Innocence, which is probably the worst of the bunch (imho)… but even that didn't disappoint me exactly.

Confession: I actually watched the Steins Gate dub... and it was great!

 

[Mussels]

Downloaded Sword Gai on a whim, so far its entertaining, if not that original

 

[jormungand]

I loved Gits SaC... cant wait for a new one
