Posted February 18, 2008 I finished Lain, it was great. It started to make sense in the final episodes, so I got the general gist of it, but I'll definitely rewatch it sometime to get it all. I wish it had more episodes though. Up next: Mushishi! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 18, 2008 Yup.I watched the first episode of Bokurano last night, I think you suggested it, and the first thing I heard...cicadas. Bokurano is an interesting show in that it seems to follow an episodic format like Ghost In The Shell at first but then the continual story takes some wild twists and huge increases in scale. If that makes any sense. I watched the movie "The Girl Who Leapt Through Time" today, very beautifully drawn and animated, as is expected from a high budget movie I guess. It did leave me with a nice satisfied feeling even though there were a few things I didn't think were so good. What other anime films should I check out.. assuming I've already watched everything Satoshi Kon and Miyazaki have made? I have Tekkonkinkrit(sp?) here which I'll be watching next.

Posted February 18, 2008 Speaking of Higurashi has anything been heard about how season 3 will work?Will they just show new arcs or put some twist into it? Also where might i "acquire" the Higurashi games? translated of course. And i know only fan translation exists There are two fan translations, one of which is by me. The very start of Onikakushi-hen and Minagoroshi-hen are all that's been translated so far. Anyhoo, you can download Onikakushi-hen legally for free. As for season 3, no idea.

Posted February 18, 2008 watch all the 5cm per second and everything from Makoto Shinkai I haven't seen 5cm per second, but it's supposed to be better than The Place Promised in Our Early Days, and... The Place Promised in Our Early Days is fucking ace, so... yeah. I finished Lain, it was great. It started to make sense in the final episodes, so I got the general gist of it, but I'll definitely rewatch it sometime to get it all. I wish it had more episodes though. Up next: Mushishi! You're watching my two favourite shows in a row. : peace: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 19, 2008 5cm/s has the best animation I have ever seen in anything, ever, apart from possibly the opening sequence to ef (the game, not the anime), which is of course also by Makoto Shinkai. I found the story slightly lacking, but the animation is actually so, so good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 19, 2008 I didn't find the story lacking. The purpose was to evoke feelings and that it did. In spades. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted February 19, 2008 Ack I think the last volume of Eureka Seven is coming out in April instead of March. Sucks if it's true since i've almost got all the volumes leading up to it. I was gonna get the rest this month... Bah to it all, i'll see the end of it one day. It's only been 7/8 months since I started watching it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 19, 2008 Seriously, April? Doesn't bother me really, I've seen it at least :P Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 19, 2008 Oh yeah! Only 3 days until the next Hellsing OVA RAW that is, hopefully some good subs will be up soon after it broadcasts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 19, 2008 I have to see the Hellsing OVAs, haven't seen a single one :X shame they fucked up the anime Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted February 19, 2008 To put it bluntly if the original Hellsing anime and the OVA were real live persons the OVA dropkicks the original and throws it off a cliff. If you´ve read the manga your pretty much getting the same but in color and in motion. Not meant as a bad thing, it´s just about as much kick ass Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
