Mr. Bananagrabber Posted April 6, 2008 Posted April 6, 2008 Ah right cheers, I'll stick in then. I keep forgetting it's 24 episodes long, not 12.
Dante Posted April 6, 2008 Posted April 6, 2008 Ah right cheers, I'll stick in then. I keep forgetting it's 24 episodes long, not 12. But do you like over the top of graphic violence?

Dante Posted April 6, 2008 Posted April 6, 2008 Sigh two new animes called To Love-Ru and Kanokon are ecchi.
Guest Stefkov Posted April 6, 2008 Posted April 6, 2008 Naruto widescreen looks good. I like what I saw.

Supergrunch Posted April 6, 2008 Posted April 6, 2008 Episode 1 sucks. Episode 2/3 onward is brilliant. Also- Does Black Lagoon get any better or does it stay this dull? I'm up to episode seven or something and I'm pretty bored to be honest. I've seen various Black Lagoon episodes and can't say I've liked any of them. Anyway: Azumanga Daioh is great, but takes a little getting used to, and like others have said, the first episode isn't as good as the later ones. I like it mostly for its bizarre atmosphere.

Supergrunch have you seen Lucky Star? Also i finished Clannad today... Beautiful! It's one of my favourite Anime's now! Truely great! Also watched the other mew anime Gonzo have this spring with their subs called Blassreiter which was fairly interesting but i'm unsure about the amount of CGI they have added... it looks out of place. What do you guys think of CGI in anime?
ShadowV7 Posted April 6, 2008 Posted April 6, 2008 Wait, Clannad is actually done? Was there not some sort of OVA coming out in a while for the last episode?
Coolness Bears Posted April 6, 2008 Posted April 6, 2008 Wait, Clannad is actually done? Was there not some sort of OVA coming out in a while for the last episode? I think the last episode is for a release on DVD but i'm not sure!? But i have watched all the episodes avaliable to me! i think... In fact now i have really really confused myself... Also i watched Kanokon.. It was odd. o_______0 but some bits were funny. I try out the first episodes of every show in the new season to see what i like!

What do you guys think of CGI in anime? I have seen Lucky Star, was good, though not as good as Azumanga Daioh. As for CGI, it depends how well it's integrated. It can look rubbish and out of place, but to see it being used to magnificent effect, look at the Makoto Shinkai opening to the first ef game. Wait, Clannad is actually done? Was there not some sort of OVA coming out in a while for the last episode? Clannad series one technically finished at episode 22, but episode 23 was a bonus one, with a bit of extra stuff. There'll be a similar episode on the last DVD when that comes out, and then season 2 (after story) will be out sometime in the unknown future. And it'll be good.
Guest Stefkov Posted April 6, 2008 Posted April 6, 2008 What do you guys think of CGI in anime? The only recollection I have of CGI in anime was Dragonaut. You know what peoples opinions are on Dragonaut.
Oxigen_Waste Posted April 6, 2008 Posted April 6, 2008 The only recollection I have of CGI in anime was Dragonaut. You know what peoples opinions are on Dragonaut. There's Wonderful Days and also Ghost In The Shell 2: Innocence. And I'm sure there's more.
Supergrunch Posted April 6, 2008 Posted April 6, 2008 Coolness, do I see a Kyou avatar? That makes us Clannad avatar buddies.
Coolness Bears Posted April 6, 2008 Posted April 6, 2008 Coolness, do I see a Kyou avatar? That makes us Clannad avatar buddies. Yes you do! Hey, fellow Buddy! :awesome: I can't wait for season 2 now!!! There's Wonderful Days and also Ghost In The Shell 2: Innocence. And I'm sure there's more. Is the CGI implemented well in those? as i have not yet seen them! I have seen Lucky Star, was good, though not as good as Azumanga Daioh. As for CGI, it depends how well it's integrated.

Cool i was jsut wandering what you thought of Lucky Star! Thanks again for clearing up my confused mind Supergrunch! : peace: The only recollection I have of CGI in anime was Dragonaut. You know what peoples opinions are on Dragonaut. Hehe! yes i do! just to say it again people DON'T WATCH IT!
Hellfire Posted April 6, 2008 Posted April 6, 2008 Is the CGI implemented well in those? as i have not yet seen them! In Wonderful days yes. IN GITS 2, the drawings are implemented in the CGI rather than the opposite
Oxigen_Waste Posted April 6, 2008 Posted April 6, 2008 Is the CGI implemented well in those? as i have not yet seen them! Yes... yes it is, actually. Visually, it works very well. Here, see for yourself, here are the trailers: AND I forgot the most important one... Gankutsuou: The Count Of Monte Cristo. It's a very good show, an anime retelling of Dumas' classic. EDIT: Here,see for yourself, too: In Wonderful days yes. IN GITS 2, the drawings are implemented in the CGI rather than the opposite Yup, what he said.
Coolness Bears Posted April 6, 2008 Posted April 6, 2008 Nice! Thanks Oxigen Waste! Those look great! Dragonauts was terrible but it was terrible in everyway. and Blassreiter actually looked pretty good like the vehicles! It fitted in a lot better though the robot thing looked a bit out of place! When done well i think it really adds to the visual expereience! I would never want fully CGI though as it would completely ruin anime i like the way they are using it at the moment!
Olympic Gamer Posted April 7, 2008 Posted April 7, 2008 Saw the Soul Eater OP and ED today *drools* I doubt any one will sub until after the uncut versions air, which means another few days of waiting, darn.
Coolness Bears Posted April 7, 2008 Posted April 7, 2008 Saw the Soul Eater OP and ED today *drools* I doubt any one will sub until after the uncut versions air, which means another few days of waiting, darn. I just watched them myself! Looks good Anyway to continue my viewing of each first episode this season today i watched To LOVE ru which isn't as Ecchi as the opening suggests. But i'm not easily put off by that anway unless it gets ridiculous but even then it makes me laugh! So it's pretty much your typical strange alien girl meets boy harem comedy affair but i still found it funny as i haven't actually watched many of these shows to notice all the cliche's it is most likely to be filled with
Sanchez Posted April 7, 2008 Posted April 7, 2008 Some thoughts on the pilots I've watched so far: Bus Gamer. The main characters are huge cliche's but the concept has potential. The series will hinge on how good the battles are. Mnemosyne. Only watched this because of the unusal hour long format. Expected it to be a shitty series that relied on its big breasted main character. and it does, to an extent. Show surprised me with the animation quality in action scenes. It's very gruesome as well, theres a torture scene where a character gets pierced about 50 times all over her body, and then another scene where she pulls them all out. Lots of naked scenes and even little bits of sex. Only watch if you're comfortable with that. The show kind of throws you in there, it has quite a few similar traits to Darker Than Black, but don't expect DTB either. Next up: Kure-nai: Don't know anything, not expecting much. Itazura na Kiss: Sounds lame, will have to be very funny for me to keep watching Shows so far I won't review at all: ToLOVERU: Too fundamentally gay to even consider watching the pilot. Rockman.EXE: just no.
