Posted May 6, 2007 Well, other than stuff I always wax lyrical about, I reckon people should watch Honey and Clover. However, the OP won't give you much to go on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 7, 2007 School Rumble is pretty cool, Love Hina is nice too, but read the manga it's 10x better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 7, 2007 School Rumble is pretty cool, Love Hina is nice too, but read the manga it's 10x better. .........No, I don't really like reading manga, Love Hina was one of the first I bothered trying to read and yeah don't like it........ For some reason I like reading School Rumble though. :-/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 7, 2007 I found School Rumble to be kinda boring, there isn't many reasons to keep watching. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 7, 2007 The music and I personally found the plot to be very stereotypical but I just kept coming back for more!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 7, 2007 I found School Rumble to be kinda boring, there isn't many reasons to keep watching. Madness! The first couple of episodes to be honest aren't all that hot. lol After that it's pure golden though. Harima Kenji alone is worth the download...... Seriously! Oh oh oh and Lala is awesome! "ICHIJO!!!!" ^^;;;; I just got round to watching the honey and clover op.... I will never watch that anime. lol I couldn't put up with that every episode and I refuse to fast forward. =P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 7, 2007 I left my PC on over-night to download Noein and its only at 47.0% maybe i'll leave it going for the rest of the day...can't wait to see this though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I will never watch that anime. lol I couldn't put up with that every episode and I refuse to fast forward. =P You never fast forward any anime? Man, you couldn't handle One Piece. Lately the OP, as awesomely high quality as it is, is over two minutes long, followed by a short narrative intro to the One Piece world that's the same each week (another minute) followed by a recap of the last episode which is sometimes over 4 minutes x_x Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted May 7, 2007 I accidentally stumbled across the first episode of the Diamond and Pearl pokemon anime in Japanese with subs and I quite liked it. The new character is cool, and the way it focuses on her beginning her adventure reminds me of when I watched it for the first time ages ago and Ash was beginning his. Then I went a searching for the second episode and found it in the American dubbed form and it was horrible to watch. I never thought I'd be one of those guys to moan and whine about dubbing and who wishes for the subbed version, but that's what I am now. I really find it is like ten times better with Japanese voices and subs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 7, 2007 Pokemon's dubbing really went downhill when they got rid of the original VAs from the first series, Veronica Taylor and the rest of the original cast was contracted for a total of 8 seasons of the anime but when the contracts ran out i was dissapointed. When i was watching the latest series of pokemon i was like WTF they don't sound right any more. I prefer watching the red/blue gold/silver series of pokemon, at least they still have the original VAs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I find I get used to a song if I'm forced to listen to it enough times. It's not just the song, the op video alao sways me. =P The Honey and Clover one sucks. =P Reason I actually watch it is because the op normally gets me in the mood to watch the anime......

Posted May 7, 2007 Good thing I think One Piece is poor then. lolIgnoring that blasphemy *cough* 3rd highest selling manga in history of Jump *cough* - how about early episodes of Naruto? So many anime waste their first 5+ minutes on recap, it's frustrating >.< Although Naruto is so much better in that respect these days - plus they have cold opens ^^ Also there are some series which are excellent despite wholly annoying OP music that I just have to skip each time, Rurouni Kenshin springs to mind x_x Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 7, 2007 Bleach has the best openings imo ^^, the songs are awesome I've even downloaded them , also they change the endings often to show different people. Also the show itself is awesome Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't really remember there being any annoying recap..... If there was recap it wasn't that annoying. lol Also whilst recaps get in the way, I can sit through them...... They don't stop me watching an anime.... It's more along the lines that in my experience the intro gives me enough information on the anime for me to make a decission on it. =P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted May 7, 2007 I watched Lucky Star episode 1. I thought that it was a bit slow at first as they spent half the episode talking about food, but it managed to keep my attention (which is a hard thing to do) and on the whole i liked it and thought it was funny. I liked the street fighter reference as i love the games. It was better than i thought it would be. Episode 8 of mai hime was excellent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 7, 2007 If you liked episode 8, you're going to love the rest of the show. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 7, 2007 Watched the first episode of Noein and it's pretty good.Definently looks interesting cause of it's concept but I have a feeling it might information heavy aswell,cause there was parts I was like "Eh?" On the whole looking forward to watching more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I remember liking it but as you said the series could be information heavy and i would need to sit down and concentrate on the series. How long is it? It will probably be one that i watch in the summer along with Eureka Seven. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It will probably be one that i watch in the summer along with Eureka Seven. It's 24 episodes long and I see myself re-watching some episodes aswell to pick up and understand some information. I miss Eureka Seven I really wanna watch the rest of the series but i've convinced myself to watch it on DVD but only 6 volumes (26 episodes) with another volume being released in June and July which will bring it to 34 episodes. Hope they're out by the end of the year cause I might end up caving in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
