[TV] The What Anime Are You Watching Thread!

I just watched that. I used to be confused by it. I'm still confused by it, but I used to too.
I used to watch all my Anime on Crunshyroll,till they got all legit.
My husband's gotten tired of One Piece, so now he's got me watching Slayers.
It's a classic. It suffers a bit from the Tenchi Muyo syndrome of various revamps/sequels of questionable caliber, though.
Also I dunno how I feel about a dubbed Nichijou. I feel like it'd lose a lot of it's charm and possibly humor in English, like Trigun.
Fuckin' LOVE Slayers! What sucks though is that it'd be almost impossible to be a completist of the series. What with Light novels, mangas, movies, all of which STILL haven't been translated yet over her.
Another old-school show I'd like to watch is "Kinnikuman". This, Dragonball, and Fist of the North Star are the basic templates for Shounen. I read the manga and I freakin' LOVED it. Shame that every single sub of it I find is in every language besides ENGLISH!
Yeah I'm really not digging Slayers so much. It's ok, but the characters annoy me.
I'm going to have similar problems with Code Lyoko. The first series is out on DVD so that is all good, but the second series is just starting out and it has live action segments... French live action segments. So that's unlikely to get translated, meaning I'll have to get a sub online (assuming someone does it). The novels set after the first series though? Translated to half a dozen languages but English wasn't one of them.
Which is a shame, because Code Lyoko was basically the only good show on Maguzi, the weird follow-up to Toonami.
This is true, hell if Toonami wasn't canned they could've put CL on there! Would've been better company than the crappy Canadian Moe-style cartoons they had on. Totally Spies is EVIL! And yet it still had 140 episodes, a spin-off, and a made for TV movie. The world is FUCKING cruel.
Totally Spies is the single most fetishy show I've ever seen. Muscular women, furries, BBWs, breast growth, plastic surgery addicts, lolis, school girls... they covered it all and I am convinced they were aware of what was going on. There is no way you could hit all of those topics with three girls in skin-tight spy suits and not have been planning it. I am honestly surprised CN showed every episode.
Also in one episode I remember they were a little TOO affectionate to their old as hell boss in one episode so...yeah kinda creepy. Spongebob got BUCKETS of controversy for him being possibly gay, but this show did something as creepy as this on a regular basis and yet nothing. Friggin' ridiculous.
Get the hell out. Now.
before I forget I still have doubles of the first 9 volumes of you are under arrest! I am still entertaining offers on vols 1-9 as a set, sets of 3, or as singles. simply PM me if you are interested, I also have other things I am willing to sell if anyone is interested. I had some offers made initially but nothing came of it so posting this again to all my haunts to see if post Christmas there are any takers.
It's fine. Everyone has their own tastes in media.
For people that like Azumanga Daioh,I wholeheartedly recommend reading "Yotsubato!".
It is tons of fun and the characters really grow on you.,

Anyway, I watched a couple episodes of D. Gray-man. I don't get it yet, but I have a feeling that's all going to change if I just watch a few more.
I've seen maybe 5-6 episodes of D Gray Man. It seems pretty cool, I just keep forgetting to go finish it.
I couldn't get into D. Gray Man, Its a little cliche for me. Guy with cursed arm who fights demons, thats four or five cartoons I've seen all-ready! I will admit to liking the design of the villain though, all crazy and smiley lookin'.
Cant remember who recommded Jormungand here,and I am to lazy to look ( and high) but damn,is that anime fun.
Thank you for recommending it.
Thank you for recommending it.
Speaking of forgetting to finish it, I need to go back to Darker than Black: Gemini of the Meteor. I loved the first series. Some of the second series was mixed up into the first when I watched it on Hulu so I've already seen a couple episodes but they weren't in any order. Talk about confusing.
Just a heads up if anyone's interested: 40% off Funi sale at Right Stuf.
I am now at episode 500 of One Piece! Only 80 more to go!
So I finished Kimagure Orange Road, what an amazing show, very cute ending where the obvious choice is picked in the end. She is going to america and he is going to wait for her. After I finished the TV series I watched was C-the control and possibility of money. The show seemed to be about the darkness of greed and money, avarice and whatnot. However it ended on that no matter what if you spend your money on a dream it is always worthwhile. Now I am watching hanaukyo maid team, which is a funny, cute show about a middle school age boy who inherits the title of head of his family, his grandfathers giant mansion, and its giant team of beautiful maids that will do anything for him. This includes his crush Muriel, the head maid, who he turns red around almost continuously.
They FINALLY made a proper animated series of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure! Been around since 1986, and we are just now getting a proper cartoon. Ridiculous.
Juuuuuust started Fullmetal Alchemist. On Netflix, so it's dubbed, but it's a pretty good job, from what I've seen thus far!
first or second series?
First
Yeah, FMA is one of the rare anime with an excellent dubbing.
