WTF tyrus you douchebag! I re downloaded the whole last episode in hopes to see children getting exploded. Now I just feel sick instead of happy. What kind of screwed up story is this? I think absolute slaughtering is much more tasteful than pedophelia or incest.

Seen it. Was awesome.

That show with the citadel, Kumo no Mukō, looks interesting. I hope there are combines in it
As it happens, there's a torrent for it on mininova, so I guess I'll watch it.

Now I'm gonna go find all the non-Miyazaki directed Ghibli stuff.

Just watched Full Metal Panic - Fumoffu. The first five or so episodes made me laugh so hard I couldn't breathe. The rest of the series was also good, but the highlight of the series were the above episodes, definitely.

Still watching Kyou Kara Maou and Gundam Seed Destiny. Both of which are dwindling away my attention. But I won't give up on them yet. Just it will take time to watch them ;(

Kumo no Mukō was really good. I especially liked the animation.

A lot of things, anime in particular, tend to have trouble striking a balance between leaving the sci-fi tech to the imagination or turning it into star-trek style techno babble. Given the premise (that the movie didn't really revolve around the technology, but rather the characters) I think they nailed it.

Paranoia Agent ftw, personaly my favourite anime of all time, and one of my favourite TV shows of all time. It's only 13 episodes (it was intended to be), and really keeps you wanting to know what happens next.

The first 5 episodes of that anime are probably the best first 5 episodes of all time. Most anime's take at least in to the mid-teens to get interesting. Paranoia Agent took off like a racehorse. Great show, agreed.

Yes, After just the first episode, I got hooked, unfortunatly, the nights on Adult Swim they showed the last two episodes, I wasnt up at 1:30 or 5:00, so I missed the last two, I really want to know how everything ended, as the show has been dropped from the adult swim lineup (DAMN THEM!). The fact that the show really messes with the concept of reality is really interesting, and what made it interesting from the start. It would be spectacular as a movie translation, if done right.

Also, does anyone here know just how the hell I can catch those last two episodes? I would like to watch the epsidoes and find out for myself instead of someone tell me, or read about them on wikipedia.

Now that I think about it, that show is my number one favourite TV show of all time, not just favourite anime.

I happen to be watching the Samurai Deeper Kyo series right now and if you like Shogun type anime's then I really highly suggest this one to you. I love it and I'm not even halfway in yet.

I just watched Country Road. I loved it.

And by Country Road I mean Whisper of the Heart but it'll always be country road to me (for obvious reasons).

Ahh, Gundam Seed Destiny finally got interesting. A little after episode 15 and now I think I'll probably finish the series by this weekend.

Very slow start imo.

And by "interesting" you mean they re-introduced Kira?

Well, they pretty much brought back all the key characters, even the Archangel. Yes, and Kira, for he finally isn't just staring off into space and gawking at Lacus, being a background pansy.

Interesting find on Naruto:


Cowboy Bebop vs Naruto


Naruto copies fight scenes! Wonderful. I wonder if this is the only scene that is unoriginal or if there are more.

Considering Naruto's crap and filler anyway, prolly! That IS hilarious, though.

Haha, that's awesome.

But I like naruto even less now.

Maybe in context that scene in Naruto is a tribute and not a ripoff though.
