Its quite a long series, and the last few episodes are total mind fucks but over all the animation is really well done and the story is quite well contained, but its not as well explored as the manga, due to money and time constraints.

The manga is telling a better story, in my opinion. I guess that's to be expected when Yoshiyuki Sadamoto has the original animation to work from. He can simply bend the story any way he wants. Most of his changes have been for the better.

19 eps in to Mai Otome.

Mai HiME >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Otome.

 

Simple as.

 

I completely agree with you, but otome is still a pretty good anime (thats how good Hime is...). Although the ep 19 was crap, I reckon the show's story is getting a bit more interesting, and mai's appearance should improve it as well, as long as she isn't just at the very end.

 

Plus, it's great getting to see all the old characters of HiME reincarnated.

Ep 19 was a "calm before the storm" episode so to speak. Some serious shit is gunna go down in the next few and final episodes. I can see Mai coming in on ep 20 to get Arika and Mashiro out of their current 'situation'.

I'm up to Ep 17 with SS good episode.

Watched the first two episodes of Full Metal Alchemist. Good stuff.

 

edit: I still don't know exactly how the Ghost in the Shell films are related to the series. Could someone shed from light on this for me please?

Just think of them as compating OOT to MM. Most of the same characters, but in a different universe, with different events and different happenings.

Mai hime was great indeed in everyway and i mean that, but otome is not my taste don't know why though. watched up to ep 5 and stop. does it get better from there or just the same old stuff.

I havent watched any GITS myself but i read in NEO mag i think, that the films are unrelated to the series.

Wached ep 17 of Mai Otome and I have to say I really enjoyed it... Infact this series has been really good in general always leaves me wanting to watch the next episode. XD

 

Just wondering, is there anyway to pay on the US amazon website using a solo card? >.< I just got to the payment page and ermmm I can't see anything. ; ;

Have you seen HiME, and if so, which do you prefer?

 

If not, watch it now!

Of course I have... I wouldn't be watching Otome if I hadn't. =P

 

I think Hime was probably better, but, Otome still has a chance depending on how it ends..... That's what really won me over with Hime. lol
