mega thread Anime Discussion Thread

I haven’t heard or seen too much talk about Phantom: Requiem for the Phantom. I just happened to come across it on Netflix and completely fell in love with it. I think it’s totally underrated and I’d highly recommend it.

 

[FedoraMemes 582]

Ahhh, I don't know if Legend of Korra would count as anime? Would it? Cuz I'm thinking about watching it.

 

Personally, I'm not entirely sure, but it is drawn in a very similar style as most anime is drawn in.

 

Anyways, I finished Highschool of the Dead yesterday, and let me tell you, it is now one of my favourite animes of all time. However, they leave you on a massive cliffhanger, as it pretty much ends like it would for a new episode to come in, but the only thing is, it doesn't.

 

I have heard that Season 2 is coming soon, is this true? (Also, I haven't watched the OVA yet.)

[My Little Mandy 838]

Any other fellow otakus here like myself?

I wish Sailor Moon #7 would be out now!

Every time I've been going to the local bookstore it's not there yet.

[Gone Airbourne 21,977]

Oh yeah you bet Fav. animes

 

Elfen Lied, Soul Eater, FMA both, Higurashi, DBZ, oh and there are so many more! Anime rocks

 

You should check out Mirai Nikki if you haven't seen it.

[My Little Mandy 838]

I <3 Sailor Moon, Sgt. Frog, Ouran Highschool Host Club, and a few others.

Fruits Basket is kinda cute. I <3 Tenchi Muyo. I should go on cause I have a bit of a list XD

[Gone Airbourne 21,977]

Tenchi Muyo was so fricken funny xD!! I also have seen love hina really funny too. There are so many others that I need to check out like Code Geass & Neon Evangelion I haven't watched those yet but I plan on it.

 

FLCL is one of my favs too :3

[Ink 191]

I'm not much for anime, I do however read some manga. Recently it's been mostly Seinen stuff like Gantz and Parasyte, though, both are epic.

[My Little Mandy 838]

OH! I know of another

Tenchi Muyo was so fricken funny xD!! I also have seen love hina really funny too. There are so many others that I need to check out like Code Geass & Neon Evangelion I haven't watched those yet but I plan on it.

 

FLCL is one of my favs too :3

 

Lucky Star is another fav of mine. Miyuki from Lucky Star has the same birthday as me! I found quite a few anime characters share my B-Day

 

Have you ever watched "Tenchi The Movie: Tenchi Muyo in Love"? In my opinion that movie is Tenchi perfection. Out of all the Tenchi alternates, this movie is my very favorite! The ending theme is also one of my all time favorite anime themes of all time. This is the actual original. "Alchemy of Love" is a rarity. (RARITY!) The original song was actually produced and sang in English for the theatrical release in Japan. The Japanese version came later for the home video release.

 

 

The movie also changed my mind about Tenchi's father, Nobuyuki. I went from seeing him as a lecherous jerk, to thinking of him as a tragic hero. The events of the movie eventually led him into becoming what he is. You can not blame him. His loss was too great. Without giving spoilers, "Alchemy of Love" is basically about Tenchi's mother, and the undying power of her love for him.

 

AWESOME! ANOTHER TENCHI MUYO FAN! WOOT!

Anyone like Lucky Star or/and Sgt. Frog? Both make me laugh.

Kururu is like an anime frog version of Discord! XD

[Samurshy 708]

EVERYPONY IS AN ANIME FAN!!! Not really but it seems like the vast majority of my little pony fans are also anime fans or what I like to call "Otaku" which really just means geek or nerd in japanese but it is becoming increasingly popular to use it to describe anime and manga fans. It is sort of like being called a brony/pegasister because you like my little pony. Watching anime is actually what got me interested in MLP, I found the big eyed animation style of MLP to be similar with anime. Most of my friends are otaku and they are also bronies because of it. Of course I am sure there are bronies out there that don't watch anime, but it seems like a minority case.

I am currently watching Gurren Lagann, I'm really enjoying it! I haven't really watched much mecha animes, but it's really cool.

AWESOME! ANOTHER TENCHI MUYO FAN! WOOT!

I've been a Tenchi fan for years. I remember the first time I watched the original OVA series. It wasn't on Cartoon Network, It was on *GASP* VHS tapes! I used to raid my brother's collection for stuff. That's basically how I got hooked on anime.

[Dxthegod 251]

The only anime I remember ever seeing is Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z, Dragon Ball GT, and Inu Yasha. I've probably seen other things that I didn't even know were anime...

 

But DBZ is probably my favourite. VEGETA FTW

[tanoshii 131]

Yeah, I like Lucky Star. The first episode kinda sucks though, but it gets better, especially after they replaced the director after the fourth episode

 

My personal favourite anime is Evangelion, for which I'm looking forward to Rebuild 3.

[Waffles 12]

I LOVE ANIME!!! My favourite anime series is '' Death Note ''.

Its the BEST anime i' ve ever seen!!! I just can't describe the Awesomeness!!! :DDD

[SirPoniesAlot 7]

I am a huge anime fan. I like alot of the more mainstream things. Like Naruto, Fullmetal Alchemist, Zatch Bell, and so on. But my favorite more recent anime is Tiger&Bunny.

[pizzaparty9 19]

loves all the animes i have a watch list of 200 and still growing to the point which i cant keep track of what i watch any more

[Nah 3,182]

I recently just got into anime, which started when my brother started watching DBZ and I joined him watching it. I liked it, and I started getting into other animes, more recently, I started watching Durarara on Crunchyroll (on episode 7)

 

Lemme tell you, Durarara is kick ass awesome.

[Aerial~Shot 177]

I mostly like shoujo and slice of life, but I'm not limited to them.

 

Fruits Basket, Ouran High School Host club, The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya, Lucky*Star, K-ON!, Azumnaga Daioh, Hetalia, Powerpuff Girls Z (still watching), Tokyo Mew Mew (just started). I know more manga series than anime. I have read/am reading 17 different series.

[Rain Dance 131]

I'd really recommend fairy tale. My opinion is that it is a little to much One Piece rip off though. But thats nothing really that important (I like One Piece way more though)

[BlossomBloom 48]

Has anyone been keeping up with the July animes? If so, how do you feel about them? Which is the best of the July animes? (2012 of course)

 

Also, I'd appreciate it if you visited this thread and helped me out!

It's anime related haha

[AegisReflector 886]

Just dropping a little taste of Lucky Star in this here anime thread:

 

 

Oh come on, that was probably the cutest scene you have ever seen....well, besides those in FiM.

I too loved this anime and actually as I’m typing this now I’m watching it. The OVA isn’t that great and really has nothing to do with the plot. I don’t know if you don’t want any spoilers so I won’t say anything. I have also heard that Highschool of the Dead was green-lit for a season two though, which it exciting!
