Last Anime You Watched 2.0

[Zargabaath]

I finished Mobile Suit Gundam yesterday. When it aired on Cartoon Network I got to the Battle of Odessa but stopped watching it for some reason I can not recall. So I decided to give it another go because I really enjoyed the show. Seeing Ryu die was a bit sad as it was the first time I watched that episode; I came to like Lt. Slegger as well with his personality but then he died as well - I kind of saw it coming in the episode he died in - but I was still affected, a little, by his death. I noticed something that I saw in Gundam Wing, that they would re-use some scenes for a battle: it takes a little from the production; I know that it would be tedious to create totally unique battle scenes for each battle however, if they had some variation - they used Sayla turning side-ways dodging a missle/laser then shooting a Zeon mobile suit frequently as her move, for example.

I know Mobile Suit Gundam was supposed to be 52 episodes but due to the lack of popularity it was cut to 39, however the staff was able to extend the series to 43 episodes. The episodes they lost hurt the plot a bit as they introduced the "newtypes" pretty quickly without getting too much into it and Amuro became a "god" in a short-span of episodes. Overall, I really loved this show giving it an 8/10.

I aslo completed Mobile Suit Gundam: 0080 today. I saw this OVA a long time ago but I am in a Gundam mode, will be moving on to 08th MS Team later, so I gave this another run. At first I was a bit confused exactly when this took place in the One-Year War but after I did a little research I was able to figure it out and my questions were answered. I wouldn't call 0080 great, but it was still good with some likeable characters.

A couple of weeks ago I finished Pumpkin Scissors; I first saw this show (first episode) at the inception of a small anime club at a local library, which probably never got off the ground. I had been meaning to watch and did so a few weeks ago. The ending really leaves a lot left open as there is a new player in the game between Div. 1 and Div. 3. I did watch one episode in Japanese and I prefered the Enlgish VA's because they seemed to match how they looked and their personality more than their japanese counterparts.

My last sentence brings up a point that I definitely prefer English VAs because I know English and I don't like being distracted by reading the subtitles then looking at the animation - I can miss stuff. With English VAs I can focus on what is going in the anime while fully understanding what they are talking about.

I also got watched up to episode 8 in Witch Hunter Robin but I stopped to watch Gundam. I saw up to episode 8 or so when it aired on Adult Swim but then I stopped watching Adult Swim thus I did not see the rest of Witch Hunter Robin. From the episodes I saw back in the day I liked the show and wanted to finish it one day.

The last anime I watched recently is Fist of the North Star. Its been too long since I've watched the series. I loved watching that anime. Its one of the shows that got me into anime more and I grew more appreciative of it too. I recently watched episode 8 and i don't think i finished the 9th one quite yet.

[Josh_R]

I have missed the last 8-10 episodes of Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood, and Naruto Shippuden. So I have been online watching the episodes I missed so I that I can get caught up with what is going on.

[SeaAlchemist]

Decided to watch Sailor Moon again! Why? WHY NOT?

Haha... I really have no idea, I just felt like watching the episodes again. I skipped the first Season of Sailor Moon, and moved right on to Sailor Moon R (the second season).

I plan on watching all the ones that I never got to watch when Toonami started messing with the scheduling, and I never could watch the show anymore because it would be over with as soon as I got home from school. However, I really liked this season, so I'm starting with this one.

[Asectic]

I'm watching Pokemon diamond and pearl: sinnoh league victors episode 30 on RAW or DP 180.

I watched Gundam 0083 quite a while ago; overall I enjoyed the mini-series. I definitely loved the artwork as it offered more detail than what had been done in previous U.C. entries. A good thing about 0083 is it shows how & why the Titans came into power, which never got too much attention in Zeta Gundam. The mobile suit battle between the main character Kou Uraki and one of the main antagonists, Anavel Gato, after the catastrophe at Solomon (Konpei Island) is one of the best in the entirety of Gundam.


After taking a break from it I recently finished Zeta Gundam and to date this is my favourite Gundam show. Plenty of great characters that left an impression on me so I would remember them. The plot kept moving at a good pace and even though it took some time for the "big" villains to appear, the show kept things interesting. Initially I found some of the English VA's to be awkward for some of the characters, chiefly concerning those that returned from MGS. All of them were noticeably different but Cpt. Bright's, Amuro's, Hayato, Fraw, & Kai were the ones I found weird because I was used to their original VA's. Surprisingly, though Char had a different VA, it worked out pretty well because the VA did a good job of sounding like Char from MGS but older working out well since Char had aged. Eventually I got used to Cpt. Bright's and for the most part Amuro.

My biggest detraction is with Kamille; not with his attitude but with his time in a mobile suit. The show never did a great job of showing how powerful Kamille was throughout most of the show. Even when fighting basic enemies, though they are elite Titans, Kamille would miss a lot and there weren't many scenes of him destroying a mobile suit. This irked me because I would have liked to had gotten a better glimpse of his prowess so I could better match him against other Newtypes.

I have recently watched
Kuroshitsuji 2
High-school of the damned

[Andromeda]

This week was Gundam 00 Season 2 Episode and 1 and 2. I've already seen Gundam 00, but it is still very nice to be able to see it again. The awakening of the 00 is especially great to watch. Plus everything really got amped up in the second season with Louise joining the ranks of pilots and the new characters that get added.

Descendants of Darkness Episode 1 and 2. Never seen it, but it was something I haven't seen so I couldn't pass up the chance to see a new anime. It is shoujo and lays on the Shounen-ai pretty heavy in a few scenes. I don't mind, so long as the show is fun I'll watch just about anything.

Marmalade Boy Episodes 24-27 or something like that. It's another Shoujo and an older one from the mid 90s. It is quite a bit of fun though. The characters keep things pretty interesting. The destined couple are together and there is still a lot of the series to go, so I'm wondering when something will cause them to break up. Though right now they're just introducing new conflict by way of a new girl. I do like the idea that the previous love triangle members are looking like a couple. So I'm pleased to see that it is not just two characters that get to have happiness in the series.

Avatar The last airbender was my recent anime and now i m planning to watch death note tv series.

[Unlucky Rufus]

I'm watching alot of Basilisk i'm on ep-14. Its gonna be on my top 20 favorite anime list.

[ZantetsukeN]

I've been watching 'Sora no Otoshimono Forte', of which I am on episode 4. It's a weird one, but it's pretty funny. Also, if you like large anime breasts, this one is for you.

Of course, I've been watching 'Lucky Star' aswell. I finished watching the OVA, and am going to start watching the series again.

[Unlucky Rufus]

Of course, I've been watching 'Lucky Star' aswell. I finished watching the OVA, and am going to start watching the series again.

Lucky Star is hilarious, ive re-watched that series lots of times.

[Azuteor]

I've watched all of Highschool of the Dead. Too bad it ended in 12 episodes. It's about a group of high school students caught in the middle of a zombie apocalypse. The animation is excellent, but the story is okay even though I care about the main characters' survival. There is a lot of fanservice too! Woohoooo~

[ZantetsukeN]

I am in the process of catching up on 'Shinryaku! Ika Musume '(aka Squid Girl). It is hilarious! I seriously recommend watching this anime if you want a good comedy.

[CloudvsLightning]

As in the last week:
Hitman Reborn! eps 1-9

Working my way through anothr 200 . . . might take a while

[HUNK]

I'm not sure if this one counts as anime or just tv but I'm currently watching an anime for the book series Deltora Quest. The animation is alittle bit lacking but it's still interesting for me to see a visual representation of the book series that I loved so very much as a young child.

[Dodie16]

I found some episodes of Grimm's Fairy Tale Classics that someone uploaded to Youtube, so I've been watching those for the past couple of days. Man... What a nostalgia rush. I remember watching those on early morning Nickelodeon.

Anyway, I watched: The Frog Prince, Hansel and Gretel, Bluebeard, King Grizzle Beard, The Worn-Out Dancing Shoes, The Marriage of Mrs. Fox, The Story of the Summer and Winter Garden, The Magic Heart, The Coat of Many Colors, Brother and Sister, Four Skillful Brothers, and The Man of Iron.

They're all pretty enjoyable, but my favorites are King Grizzle Beard, The Worn-Out Dancing Shoes, and The Magic Heart.

There's still quite a few more episodes that I haven't gotten around to watching, and there's also a few that aren't uploaded. I'll probably watch the rest of 'em later.

After not continuing my Gundam run for some time, I quickly finished Gundam 00. When I initially left the show I was on episode 5 of season 1; I had watched all the way up to episode 9 - 11 of season 2 when it was first subbed but stopped watching for some reason.

This Gundam series is another favorite of mine. I noticed some similarities with other Gundam shows primarily the A-laws being Titans; I also noticed that the same amount of time had passed between season 1 and season 2 of Gundam 00 and 0083 and Zeta Gundam which takes place in 0087 where the AEUG fight against the Titans. Innovators seemed a little like newtypes though only through trans-am could people hear each other unlike the abilities of newtypes.

I didn't like some characters in season 2 compared to their season 1 counter-parts though that is for a couple of characters. Some of the music reminded me of music from Xenogears and another sci-fi setting. It was only a few notes but they sounded similiar from where I remembered them.

[xXx Rikku xXx]

Kissxsis ova 2
about an hour ago :3
its fricking hilarious xD

[ZantetsukeN]

Watching a pretty good one at the moment called 'The World God Only Knows', which is pretty funny. It's about a boy called Keima who is god of bishojo games (dating sims), but accidently signs a contract with hell to capture lost souls, which will involve him conquering girls in real life, not just in games. Obviously, he's going to use what he has learned from his games.

Like I said, it's pretty funny. Also, if you like the whole Otaku-love story type thing you will enjoy this.

[Josh_R]

Hmm I have been watching a few these past few days, other matters have been on my mind, so I haven't watched as much as normal.

Avatar The Last Bender: Book One Water
Avatar The Last Bender: Book Two Earth
Kaze No Stigma Season One
Dead Space Downfall
Hellboy Blood & Iron

[Dodie16]

Last anime I watched were actually movies:

Perfect Blue: About a young pop star named Mima who wants to be an actress, and she starts out in a bit role in a crime drama, but then gets a bigger part in the same crime drama. However, she's constantly terrorized by a stalker. This, along with pressures of her new career path, cause Mima to have numerous breakdowns. During the course of the movie, there are many times in which the viewer is wondering whether Mima herself is actually causing all the violent crimes that happen in the film.

It's a really good movie. I'd definitely recommend it if you're wanting to watch a psychological thriller.

Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind: Yes. I finally got around to watching it, and I thought it was good. It's a about a young princess named Nausicaa, who seeks to find a remedy to the deadly poisons that are affecting the world. During the course of the film, she also has to face off against an invading kingdom, who find that they too want to do something about the poison, but their method of doing so is more destructive.

Like I said, Nausicaa was good, but I was also pretty surprised by it. I went into the movie knowing NOTHING of the plot, and to be honest, was a little put off by all the giant bugs. Yeeeech.... Other than that, I'd say it was another perfect Ghibli movie.

[ZantetsukeN]

^ I've been meaning to watch Perfect Blue. I love Satoshi Kon's films, especially Paprika.

A brand new anime I literally just watched was Rio~Rainbow Gate. If you don't like fanservice anime, stay the hell away. I like them to a certain extent, and I will keep watching it, but it is basically built on fanservice. The first episode introduced a small girl named Mint, who has just arrived at a casino with her grandfather. She hears of a person called The Goddess of Victory, which happens to be the title character, Rio. Everyone wants to see her because she is basically Lady Luck.

I finished Mobile Suit Gundam ZZ two days ago then watched Char's Counterattack and Gundam 00: Awakening of the Trailblazer (a movie).

The first 17 episodes of ZZ were iffy to ok but afterwards it does get better. While Judau and Haman were supposed to be Newtypes the show sparingly showcased any Newtype ability in Judau. I would probably place this somewhere in between my top tier of Gundam shows and Gundam Seed/Gundam Seed Destiny.

I've seen Char's Counterattack before, I remember watching when it came on Cartoon Network years ago. I always felt said the Hathaway killed Amuro new gf or girl interest. A good movie that keeps it going though the ending makes me a bit down.

Awakening of the Trailblazer was definitely a good movie. How the plot goes does fit into the show which I liked since it wasn't some random tangent. I understood the message and reasoning/goals of the characters but I have an issue with the ending which is a little atypical.
