Last Anime You Watched 2.0

[Keisuke Takahashi]

I just finished watching Full Metal Panic, Fumoffu and The second raid... Good stuff. I liked the comedy in it, as well as the action. If you like Mecha and High School randomness, then check it out. You can skip out on Fumoffu, since it's more of a half assed season 1.5.. but it does deal more with the HIgh School Comedy, which is good too. xD

The second raid turned it up a notch actionwise. I was pretty shocked when I saw it, but it was still cool.

One Piece Episodes 209-219:

Ah The Davy Back Arc. Oh man, fans weren't kidding when they said this was a great, fun arc. Oda's (and in fair credit, the Anime writer's) fantastic imagination runs wild here. Even though it's not as epic as the Arlong, Arabasta, or Skypeia arcs, I was totally on the edge of my seat with enjoyment. I SO want to play a real game of Pirate Volleyball now. It seems my love for One Piece will never die down anytime soon.

My Blue Seed Disc Set, Disc 3:

Can't remember the exact episode numbers I'm at, I think 18. But I've been watching this great classic series in it's original Japanese. It's like a better Inuyasha with better characters, better pacing, but a pretty cheesy dub.

[Sinister]

Oh God I love Blue Seed....*sigh* memories...

Anyway. Sorceror Hunters...Episode...I dunno The one with all the flowers *eyes sparkle* Evil demented soul sucking flowers...

I WANT ONE!!!

[Cloud Strife X]

I've been watching The Big O (probably my favorite anime) again, and i'm slowly going through season 2 of Yu Yu Hakusho, just watching an episode or two here and there.

Beyond that, a friend of mine has been trying to get me to watch Naruto, but I guess it's just not my kind of thing. I know it's pretty much the most popular anime out there right now (at least, it is with people I know), but I can't make myself watch it at all. Ah well.

Busou Renkin, episode 26: The Finale!

Oh man...pure awesome. That was such a great ending. I'm so happy that everything worked out as it did. ^^ Went from wanting to cry from all the depressingness of 25 to wanting to cry from all the happiness in 26! <3 Victor XD What a guy.

~DragonHeart~

[Victoria]

I was watching it with Dragonheart as well. 26 Busou Renkin.
Whew. 25 was depressing, but I had a feeling that they'd somehow pull off a happy ending, or at least I would hope they did. And they did.

[SSJ4 Goku]

Yesterday brought new episodes of Bleach (ep. 27) and Blood + (episode 3). I've been fairly intrigued by the latter despite never seeing the original movie on which it was based. Perhaps I should do that soon, as it would probably be helpful.

Also, I finally managed to watch the Lupin III movie "Dead or Alive," which I bought several weeks ago. I've been really excited for that movie for a while now, as it was the one Monkey Punch (the creator of the Lupin manga) decided to direct, so it was good to see him regain control of the animated form of Lupin for a change, as his story was fairly serious compared to the usual light-heartedness of the anime/other movies.

Today brought episode 10 of Nodame Cantabile, which was wonderful (as always). Seeing Nodame dressed up as a mongoose was very fun, as was the S-Orchestra's performance of Rhapsody in Blue. I can't wait for the next episode, as we'll get some Chikaki action, and he'll be playing a piece I love (Rachmaninoff's second piano concerto).

Lastly, I watched the first two episodes of Le Chevalier d'Eon. I had started the series a few months ago, but it swiftly got licensed and I only got to watch three episodes before that, so I now picked up the first DVD (containing the first four episodes). Overall, I'm fairly happy with the dub, though there are one or two things I would have preferred differently. The packaging and extras are really something else, though, as it's just loaded with extra information, videos, etc. Overall, I'm VERY pleased with ADV's treatment of the series, and I look forward to following the rest of the series.

[Furore]

Bit of a coincidence SSJ4 Goku, I was watching The Castle of Cagliostro again. I love the car chase in it, considering it's animated, they've done a great job with the action scenes. Lupin III is mad and hell funny.

[Overdriven]

Let's see.

I finally got around to buying all of Neon Genesis Evangelion off of Amazon, and I watched it all in a couple days. It was actually pretty good, but the last episode hurt my fragile little mind. x_x

After that I moved on to Avatar: The Last Airbender. For a Nick show it's actually really good, I think. It's gotta be one of my favorites. There's little repetetiveness like in many animes, where they go over in their mind what happened an episode of two before, and there not often to the characters state the obvious. Those are two things that bothered me about a good number of shows. There's a solid plot, good characters (One of the villians is Voiced by Rufio, off of Hook XD), several love interests, and some actual laugh out loud funny parts. Hoping to get my hands on the third book soon.

And I have now gone back to watching Inuyasha. I never got a chance when it was coming out to really sit down and watch it all in a row, so my knowledge of the series was broken. Finished the first season last night, and the second and third are on order. Waiting on those.

Next Up: Martian Successor Nadesico, and Dual! Parallel Trouble Adventures when it comes in the mail.

[Cloud_Strife17]

Zoids I love that show I never see it on TV though

[Furore]

Macross Plus Collection and Shadow Skill, while neither are new by any standard, they're both good for repeat viewings. Macross Plus being another futuristic military type romp, good fun. Shadow Skill being a fighting flick, I watched the movie last, by the way.

[Zantar]

Okay, so I've been putting the hurting on some anime in the past week so here goes.

Shakugan no Shana - 1-24(end as far as I know)
Zero no Tsukaima - 1-13 (end of 1st season)
Death Note - 1-27 (I think I read there are 36 episodes)
Rurouni Kenshin - 1-83ish (was about 2 weeks ago watching this, need to finish it only got 12ish more ep. left...)
Hellsing - 1-8 (also a show I need to finish up)
Of couse the new bleach (ep123) and naruto shippuuden (ep11) that came out last week too.

I think that's it..... Maybe.

I can't wait for Tsubasa season 3 (ep52 was last ep of season 2) to start up in May!

[Skywalker]

Ah ! Megami Sama (ah! my goddess)
episode 26 skuld chan is a grown up

bigger
tighter

.......
yeah I'm an adult

[DragonHeart]

Episodes 1-12 of Fullmetal Alchemist

I know I know, you're all wondering what planet I've been on. Up until last night I'd only seen the first three episodes. Saw the DVDs at Best Buy yesterday and picked up the first 3. I was originally hoping to finish out Trigun but ah well. Night of the Chimera's Cry was one of the most emotional and disturbing things I've ever seen, in any form of media.

Beck Dub Episodes 1-15

Well for a few reasons I wanted to check out Beck, specifically the Dub, which is being aired on Much Music in Canada. First of all, my interest was piqued in various AMVs and word of mouth, secondly the dub production team at Funimation who worked on it namely Justin Cook, Mike Mc.Farland, and Chris Bevins who also did FMA are also working on the new One Piece dub, so even though I know how great FMA is, I still had to check out their latest work to scope the kind of cast they might be using.

Overall, i never thought I'd be much into a Rock Band Anime, but the quality and the likable characters really surprised me. I preordered the first DVD for a mere 16 bucks thanks to RightStuf's Funimation 40% off promo a little ways back.

Blue Seed Episodes 20-27 (Last Disc):

Well I'm not going to repeat myself with what I said, just look at my previous post. One thing I love about having the DVDs that you don't get to see on TV (I originally watched these on Encore Action BEFORE the days of Adult Swim) are the Omakes, and man hearing the English versions are so damn hilarious whether it's the Old Movie Trailer spoof or the Matsudaira report. The Anime itself I think is overall better in Japanese, but watching the Omakes are SO much better in English.

[raging drunk lad]

Currently watching:

Nodame Cantabile
Heroic Age
Lucky Star
Lovely Complex
Hidamari Sketch
Toward the Terra

Whenever something new on AnimeSuki shows up I'm on it. Or at least download it to watch later.

[Kaos_Dragon]

Finally started watching Slayers, been watching Nana.

And I have been re-watching Magic Knight Rayearth, Escaflowne, and Cardcaptor Sakura. ^^

[Andromeda]

I just finished watching Kashimashi: Girl meets Girl. Which I have been very eager in seeing since I read an article about in my Newtype a year or so ago now. It was the reason I started full steam on my own anime story that I have been posting. While mine is completely different, there was some similiarities with mine that made me want to see it. Plus gender swaping is an interesting topic for me since it introduces a lot of comedy. It was only subtitles, but it had english dubbing for the 30 seconds they have americans in there. And I'll just say now, they got the worse VA for the english I have heard since pre-1998 english anime dubs. The Japanese dubs were perfect, even if I think they over did the feminine voice for the male character. And then to be accented by some of the worst English VA I have heard in ten years. But I will be buying that DVD when it comes out.

I also got The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, which for anyone who has already seen it knows it to be awesome. I had only seen the first two episodes as fan subs that were shown at work. But seeing more only further inforced the belief that Haruhi is awesome and a great anime. I can't wait for the rest of the DVDs to come out because it is the funniest anime I have seen since Abenobashi and FLCL.

[Azuteor]

I'm watching episodes 120-125 of Bleach on my computer and waiting for episodes 126 and 127. On adultswim I am watching.. Bleach and Blood+. It's too bad Eureka 7 finished months ago, I hope AS will air it again so I can marvel at it's greatness.

Naruto Shippuden - Episodes 1-5
5 centimeters per second

[Cain Highwind]

Okay, I've been a little behind

One Piece Movie 6: Baron Omatsuri and the Secret Island:
Oh man! Not only does this rank as one of the best OP movies (next to 4), but it's definitely one of the nicest looking ANIME movies I've seen in a while, and I recommend it highly even to those who aren't OP fans.

This movie is so DARK by the series' standards, it's actually kind of scary. It's supposed to be a director's allusion to his time working at Studio Ghibli and having an argument with Miyazaki and then quitting back to Toei Animation. Overall, great story, soundtrack, and some lovely and fluid animation that really departs from the TV series' style (unlike the other movies which is just the TV Animation polished up).

PLEASE FUNI PUT THIS OUT ON DVD!!

Beck - Episodes 23-26

Well I'm not going to spoil anything, but Beck wraps up quite nicely. As I've said before, I'm not into that Rock Sub-culture, but Beck was such a pleasant surprise. Definitely buying the DVDs

One Piece - Episodes 224-314

Now how's THAT for an Anime Binge? I realized now, that Kaizoku Fansubs has pretty much caught up with the other major Fansubs, so I started downloading all the new Episodes and now, for the most part, pretty caught up (now I just need to catch up in the Manga to prevent future spoilage).

Man! Just when I thought it couldn't get darker than Movie 6, stuff like CP9, Water 7, and Enies Lobby happens. And Aokiji is the FREAKIN' MAN! Well and Franky too. And HOLY CRAP @ Gear Second. Lots of great stuff here, glad to be a OP fan.

EDIT: Also wanted to add that I saw Special 4. And I LOVE the Alternate Universe Oyabun episodes. The cameos are great, and Rika is just the most adorable OP character ever!

One Piece Movie 7: Karakuri Castle's Mecha Giant Soldier

Not as good as Movie 6, but I had heard of all the crazy fanservice, so I went in expecting the worst, and it's really not that bad at all. The first 20 Minutes are simply "WTF?!" with all the bouncing (SFX Included!). But then I thought the movie was actually pretty good aside from the weird way Nami's Breasts are drawn. It still animates and looks smooth, and the plot certainly wasn't terrible. If they just got rid of the dumb fanservice and didn't have Chopper's grating substitute VA, it would've been higher on my list.

So far, with all the OP movies, I'd rank them like this (Worst to Best):

1 < 3 < 7 < 5 < 2 < 6 < 4

Bleach - Episode 40 Dub

Yeah I've been watching the Bleach dub, and well, I don't see what the fuss is about. It's just okay. It feels same old same old to me. I feel like the pacing is off as they try to throw ALL these characters out at you expecting you to keep track. I dunno I just hate seeing a new Soul Society member thinking "Hmm I'd like to know more about him/her" and they just throw in completely new character.

Plus I like Rukia and all, but after watching Enies Lobby in OP (very similar and comparable). She's kinda weak (although I have to say I didn't see her past with Ganju coming). She just sits in a cell a sulks "poor me" compare that to... well I won't say, because I don't want to spoil people. But I will say an Army of Pirates, Carpenters, and Dismantlers is WAYY cooler than a bunch of kids and a cat tackling a large compund. It's just more epic.

[Bleachfangirl]

WHAT? There are OP movies? REALLY? I didn't know that. Can you get them at a video store like the Naruto movies?

Ruroni Kenshin Season 3

I haven't been watching things lately.

[Crazy Chocobo]

The last Anime I watched was an episode of Cardcaptor Sakura on YouTube. I would really love to buy the series on DVD if it even exists because it is such a great show. I prefer the Japanese version though because the English version is more for kids so yeah. I originally watched most of the English series on Cartoon Network and got to like it then but I'm really wanting to see the Japanese version!

If anybody knows if you can get the Japanese version on DVD, please let me know! I'm going to have a look around at different stores to see if they have it otherwise I might have to order if offline.

[Cain Highwind]

It looks like your best bet is a Used/Sealed/Collectible copy, as my searches only turn up the movies at places like Amazon and Rightstuf. At Amazon there are sellers who sell either Used copies or New still sealed copies.
And as I understand it, Geneon snatched the series from Nelvana (who essentially made "Cardcaptors", the watered down English version), and they made Uncut DVDs with I believe a Japanese-only sub, while Movie 2 uses a completely new English voice cast.

And you might want to check out Tsubasa, which in many ways is a kind of Kingdom Hearts-ish sequel starring an older Sakura. I haven't seen it myself yet but it's at the top of my "Need to watch list"

[GRIM REAPER]

The last anime I saw was the newest episode of Bleach forgot the number but its like 129 or something. The last movie I saw was the third Naruto movie with Rock Lee as a team member with Kakashi, Sakura and Naruto.

[dimmufan]

Excell Saga 1-18

Cowboy Bepop 1-26

Cowboy Bebop Movie

[Treize]

I watched the first five episodes of Inuyasha along with other random episodes of Inuyasha. Also I watched all of .hack//Legend of the Twilight. It was good. I only wish there were more episodes.

[jenova33]

I watched 1-33 of Death Note and it's great so far! >.<

I have to go watch 34 now. Hehe~

[Andromeda]

Well I picked up Kashimashi: Girl meets Girl yestereday. It was finally released on DVD Tuesday and I was able to watch past the first episode. Though to my surprise when I put in the disc and began watching it was in Japanese. I tried to switch it to English and found that there was only one audio track. It was released with subtitles only. It left me completely bewildered. I ever check the DVD case to see if I had gotten the wrong one or something weird happened with the disc. But they only released it in subs. I've never seen anyone do that before. It was put out by Media Blasters, so I don't know if they actually have a budget for dubbing. Oh well, it was still really good. And cheap, since I guess they don't have to pay to dub it.

It was my first Yuri anime, so that was interesting. But I bought it for the gender swaping, because I wanted to see how they played with it. Since I had been playing with it for a while. It was very interesting to watch and a lot of fun. Though there are some really wierd and creepy characters. The dad is really creepy, like child molestor creepy. Which is just creepy. Did I mention he is creepy? It is comedy, so it is funny, but just seems a little in poor taste. Oh well, everything it else is funny, if not random, but that is what you get in anime.

I can't wait for the next volume to come out, though I have to wait two months ; ;.

I also saw Prince of Tennis episode 36 I think? It was the end of the St. Rudolf arc. It was pretty fun to watch the coach Mazuki using all of his data and think that he was winning only to get completely destroyed.

Hikaru no Go was up as well and I think it was episode 29, either way I love the show. It like Yugioh, but 10 times better. Hikaru had his first game for the pro exam against a motorcycle rider guy. It is very interesting to watch, since it is Hikaru doing all of the work and Sai is just watching.

I also watched Naruto where they were fighting Orochimaru in the forest of death and Naruto is protecting Sasuke who is too scared too fight. It was a fun episode because you get to see Naruto pulling out the nine tail fox again. Though it is cooler with the red chakra and everything at the end of the invasion arc.

[Muhamo Alru]

i watched pokemon battle frontier this morning if that counts ^.^

nah, i don't get to watch very much anime, except for what they show on tv sometimes. they took off shaman king after repeating the series 5 times, and stuck sonic x back on. (i love sonic)
used to watch dbz but stopped after it got silly with buu (i thought frieza was the best villain and anything after that was just getting a bit weak in terms of plot)

still, i wanna see trigun. a friend of mind used to watch it and says its awesome.

[Shadow Of Darkness]

the last anime ive watched is Naruto.
a great episode, fighting the whole time.
