Heya Gunner, after we discuss some more Touhou albums, I would like to discuss Visual Novels with you, will send PM. Maybe you can start a thread about them.

There is so much interesting anime that the choice is sometimes overwhelming. "Cowboy Bebop" is next for me.

I heard about "Aria" via a Bennet The Sage I think.

I like the obscure anime from the eithies in particular. Gundam Wing, one of my favourite anime series and the first one I watched still had that eighties feel to it in the plot and the characters. Gundam Wing is an acquired taste though since it also revolves around somewhat philosophical dialogues about war and peace.

I hate how Claymore and Berserk animes downplayed many things from the manga. Those two were among the best which I've read, and when I see the anime, I was like...

I love Hellsing very much. Kept on re-read the whole thing. Watched the anime, actually the 2nd version (more graphic) was closer to the manga which i like (the main villian is the same General). However, due to some circumstances, it didn't end at the final release.

One of the many stories which i love is GTO. Never forget GTO! While the anime itself didn't give a very happening ending like how Onizuka battled the few angels in the manga, it was one of the better made manga-to-anime that I've watched.

While we are at it, WORKING! is nice! Love the style more than Nichijou (which sometimes I find it too weird). Shigofumi has quite unique concept. I wanna watch Suzumiya Haruhi!!!

If I had the money and space I would have been an avid manga collector. Unfortunately that was one hobby too many...

I just watched Code Geass. It starts like a run of the mill Gundam plot but after that the story and plot twists become better and just works in the context of the story. In the past two days I finished R1, R2 and had a taste of R3. The script writers really took the best of older series and made everything work. Code Geass really is as good as I was told.

Minuses: the animation is nothing special if you ask me; the subtle fan-service is also unnecessary, philosophical dialogues and themes are present (a matter of taste).

Isn't there a thread for this at Head-Fi?

Deep Funk · « **Reply #15 on:** January 30, 2014, 11:10:55 PM »

1. Yes.

2. I no longer visit HF.

3. Speaking for myself I do not often have time to a finish a season of any Anime.

4. Do you find anime silly? It is, there are good ones though.

I don't mind having a thread here. Most of us don't devote our lives to anime and manga like the majority of participants on the head-fi version.

I only really like one piece, and I've just started collecting the manga as well as portrait of pirates, along with watching the anime.

The head fi version is more like a chat room for people with a singular (well dual really) interest, only it derails far more often than I like. I've been there, and for what it's worth, achieved 2k post in 2 months...

This is more level headed, which is a good thing.
----------
I thought Code Geass won't have R3? And the "on going" OVA of Akito is more a parallel story to R2, I thought.
----------
One piece is by far my most favourite on going shonen manga. It just works better than say bleach or naruto or fairy tale for me.

Deep Funk · « **Reply #19 on:** January 31, 2014, 08:25:34 AM »

The Akito story is also called R3 and has the duration of an OVA apparently. The White Knight and Lelouch/Zero come back too. I am curious how the writers are going to achieve the cohesiveness and consistency of the first two seasons.
