Toradora still gets better. Episode Eleven has easily been my favorite thus far. This deals with emotions far better than perhaps any romantic-comedy I've seen in years.

Apache Baseball Army

Although looked at the time of childhood, there is a memory overwhelmed by the peculiarity of a stage setup.

There is something magical about baseball anime that I don't really understand

Oofuri and One Outs are awesome


One Outs is like Akagi except it's about baseball

I mean One Outs might have the single worst opening ever but the show is totally solid

Edit: I just spontaneously decided to learn to pitch this spring

Ret's go! Ret's go!

I like the visual style, no matter what else happens with it.

Anybody else watch Kurozuka?

Basically the best ending I've seen in a long time. Totally ace series. Delivers on weird brainfuck and psycho vampire blood violence every episode, and the buddy characters are totally likable considering the series is only 12 episodes!

[psiga]

12 eps is often a good thing, in my experience.

Haven't seen Kurozuka yet. Watching part 1 of ep 1 on the 'Tube is interesting... Visually it has some great stuff to work with, but in execution I'm feeling an unflattering tryingtobecool:actuallycool ratio. It doesn't quite convince me to roll with it.

Definitely doesn't look bad, though! It's kinda neat, and I've only seen a little bit, so I'd gladly give it more chance.

Edit~: Watched 2/3 and am part way through 3/3 now. It's quite good, considering! There's something about it that still feels a little off, but it's holding my interest either way, so that's a good sign.

Last edit: Completed first ep, and officially like where it's going. Do NOT like the OP and ED, but won't hold that against it.

I watched some crap on Netflix's instant queue

The Read or Die 3 episode thing I thought was pretty good. I like the concept anyways. I hear there's a TV show; is it any good?

Mezzo was alright. The guy that's doing all this still hasn't made anything as interesting as Kite was.

Gilgamesh was predictably terrible. I watched the first two episodes and by the time they recapped what you'd already seen the THIRD TIME within ten minutes I got really frustrated and turned it off. Shitpile. Desert Punk was also terrible.

It didn't look like there was anything else interesting there at all, really.

[psiga]

Kurozuka update: Ep 2 started off nice, then started getting all screw-you with unexplained mindfuck vignettes which are tangentially related to the story or are they. As soon as something really interesting happens, they move on to something else and there is no particular closure. Maybe they're going to explain it all over time, but so far in Ep 3 they are just piling on more unexplained mindfuck vignettes which are tangentially related to the story or are they.

Unless Ep 3 blows me away at some point, I'm probably just going to lose interest here.

Basquash was created by the same french guy who made Oban Star Racers though now Shoji Kawamori (Macross) is also on it, so it may be an idea to check that. Same (also french) mecha-designer too, though it seems the Nike shoes were Kawamori's idea.

[glossolalia]

i thought it ruined a lot of what was good about the OVA and what it added wasn't nearly as interesting. and i watched it back when i was just getting into anime, i def wouldn't have the patience for it now.

[idle]

the ROD tv series is the most angsty and depressing anime i've seen since evangelion

only watch it if you need something to drive you to suicide

[Gin]

Kurozuka has steadily more action and slicey slicey as time goes on, but it's definitely the kind of thing you watch at the end of the day.

[Gin]

Guys watch Slam Dunk.

SLAM DUNK is awesome. It Is blue skies. It's Naruto, only instead of learning kage bunshin he learns to lay-up and steal a rebound.

[BalbanesBeoulve]

Anybody know where I can get a subbed version or a sub file for the first episode of the Persona anime? Both the torrent of the whole series and a megaupload of the first episode both have subs missing for the first episode.

Can anybody tell me if, at 110 episodes, Legend of the Galactic Heroes is actually worth watching? I tend to check up on Bateszi Anime Blog pretty often because the guy has taste I find mostly agreeable and writes about his experiences with viewing anime pretty well. I think it's fair to say he's one person (of very few) who identifies as an "anime fan" that I don't find at all repulsive. He apparently really loved this one, but I wanna know what you guys think.

Right now I'm rewatching Evangelion. I think I'll check out Rebuild after that, and then go for a second run of Gurren Lagann.

Yeah, I don't get why it's supposed to be a P3 spinoff either. There is one character in common, but even then he never references the P3 events and he could just as well be considered an unrelated character with the same name and face. Oh, and I guess there's Igor too.

But yeah, it's not very good. It's also one of those anime where I get the impression the fansubbers weren't understanding it either, so everything seems poorly worded.

[analogos]

It's "based on P3" to cash in. Beyond that, the relationship is probably pretty tenuous. Thing is, P3's my least favorite entry in the series, easily. So no, "we" were not hoping for the anime to take after it, particularly. My saying it was boring was really pretty much a compliment in that context, it didn't need defending.

You'd probably have a better time watching Ghost Hound than Persona

[Ebrey]

[glossolalia]

i stopped watching ghost hound after they showed what the guys' spirits or whatever looked like and they kept making dumb "whoa!" "uncomfortable" anime talk while they were out-of-body

also the character design was mostly horrid

i did like those recurring scenes with the dead(dying?) girl tho

[Gin]

I primarily used Ghost Hound+drugs+lots of melatonin as a way of encouraging lucid dreams

worked out pretty well actually and I sort of astral projected a bit more than usual

really the show is mainly awesome for well, abstract metaphors, psychobabble, bizarre imagery and themes, and all the what the fuck moments

my favorite parts are when the psychiatrist to the kid with the dead sister starts to have paranormal experiences. I'd say what but that'd be spoiling it. Or the ghost hunting episodes. that shit was freaky. watch it in the dark.

the ending is pretty satisfying in a plot way but not very satisfying in a character way

in the way that the characters aren't really as interesting as their experiences.

try to look past the boring characters for the goodness.

I remember that someone watched Druaga Aeris of Uruk and liked this as much as I did, so ... keep an eye on Druaga Sword of Uruk, second season has started (finally).
