ShadowV7 Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 Does anyone know if episode 16 and 17 of Black Cat was a dream or did it really happen to Train on the mountain? After it all he just gets punched in the face so it baffled me. Just another question, Does the episode information make any sense? There are apparently 24 episodes yet I have and they have only 23? I'm going through my episodes now checking against the names of each episode but I'm confused. There are 24 episodes but some places have only aired 23 episodes leaving out the real 15th episode called Tōzakaru Neko "( 遠ざかる猫, Tōzakaru Neko? A Runaway Cat". Only Animaz has aired the episode as far as i'm aware. You should be able to find the episode now that you have the title of it.

ShadowV7 Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 Still don't know whether to be happy or not about this. It sounds like it could be good but i'm certainly not expecting anything.
martinist Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 Theres Anime Central on Sky but i'm not sure if there are going to be any channels like that on Virgin Media. There might be some on Jetix if you recieve that channel. I wasn't really a fan of the dragonball anime, so i'm not really interested in the live-action adaptation. It might be interesting to see what the live-action characters look like though. It'll be wierd to see Justin Chatwin in an orange jumpsuit with big spiky hair.
Ellmeister Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 my anime central has gone all slow and crappy lately. Is that just because of my signal or is there some way to improve reception for that channel? All other channels are fine. Also that channel rocks I watch bleach and ghost in the shell and cowboy bepop on it =]
Meta_Omega Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 "Dragonball," which is being produced by Stephen Chow Instant success.
Supergrunch Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 Well, I just saw episode 24 of Higurashi... make sure you watch after the credits, there's an interesting bit there. And the crazy thing is that a 3rd series has been announced, which is very strange, because the story's over now. If they use source material, then I hope they cover Saikoroshi-hen. (a "perfect" world, set after Matsuribayashi-hen) I suppose they could try some of the manga-only arcs like Onisarashi-hen (all about Natsumi), Yoigoshi-hen (set in present day, after the gas disaster), or Utsutsukowashi-hen. (covering some of Shion's time at her boarding school) Or they could try PS2 exclusive arcs - Taraimawashi-hen and it's solution, Tsukiotoshi-hen (variations on Meakashi-hen) and Miotsukushi-hen. (the supposed "true" ending to the series, said to be less happy but more meaningful) But I don't see how they could link these arcs to make a coherent story, so maybe the content will be mostly new.

I read up on it before, wiki has (DVD) next to it so I guessed it was only a DVD episode. Not bothered really now, I've got 2 episodes left.
Shino Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 How can that DragonBall live action turn out good?!
Oxigen_Waste Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 It'll be wierd to see Justin Chatwin in an orange jumpsuit with big spiky hair. Do you people really believe they'll keep the hair? Fuck no, it can't be done right with people, it'll be completely different.
ssj Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 At this point it seems as though the movie is going to cover most of Dragonball if not all of it, which means it could be a long movie. It all depends on weather they cast a Piccolo JR.

EchoDesiato Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 Oh, I thought it was going to be a Dragon Ball Z movie. I guess it has a slightly better chance of being good now, if done right.
DomJcg Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 Hmm wasn't there DBZ live before? and wasn't it really shit? as are the cartoon movies (NON FUCKING CANON) but i'll wait and see

Roostophe Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 ok! you can stand Naruto Dubbed? You have more stamina than me! I couldn't listen to him for more than a minute! Dude, just move to subs now. A little more activity for your eyes is little when compared to the soul destroying sound of the disgustingly horrid dubs you are listening to. I find it incredibly amusing when someone's too lazy for subtitles, maybe I'm just too used to them. Watch till episode 19... you'll be completely hooked. That is all. Plus, dub = lazy bastard. Subtitles are annoying because they're sometimes too small for me to read, and I'm forced to sit forward and read them. Even then, if there's a close up of somebody's eye, white lettering on white skin is hard for me to read clearly. Also, I don't mind watching dubbed anime, but Naruto's voice did grate a bit during that first episode. I watch Shaolin Soccer subtitled, maybe I should with Naruto.
Guest Stefkov Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 Just finished Black Cat. I really enjoyed it. Animation was a bit hard to watch at times for me but it looked great. Not one of the best, it doesn't have an impact on me now like others did, but good none the less. Finally an anime with a good ending. Apart from one thing. Why can't they just have a good ending anime...jeez.

It's not that you should... it's that you must!
Roostophe Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 It's not that you should... it's that you must! *sigh* Fine, then. I WILL watch Naruto subbed.
ShadowV7 Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 Believe me, you'll thank yourself for it. Then after you'll question why you watched it dubbed.
Guest Stefkov Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 Anyone care to share what Dragonaut is about? I've only watched the first episode but I'm alread confused. Maybe it'll get into it I don't know. I shall see.
Coolness Bears Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 Yeah i watched Episode 1 of Dragonaut and got really confused as to what it was all about and what was going on! That was when it first came out and i haven't continued it yet.
Oxigen_Waste Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 Word around is... Dragonaut it pretty average. Not worth it, so to speak.
Guest Stefkov Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 I'm gonna give it a go. Don't see why not, everyone has their own tastes. I am liking it's art style. Actually, the dragons don't look all that great...
