Well not caring about the person in the picture and talking about anime...

Anyone who likes romantic anime should not forget to watch Peach Girl or Fruits Basket atleast once in their life.

And is the whole blue/pink/white hair thing a bit overdone these days? Every so often a fad needs to redefine itself by embracing more conservative principles. It can then come along a few years later & seem totally fresh/new again. So i say...stop with the extreme hair colors & adopt something a bit more old school. Brown & black work very well I believe.

I will now add a filter for firefox that permanently blocks animated gifs larger than 50x50 pixels. Thank you.

How is blue/green/pink hair in any way a fad? It's always been around. I say use colors that fit the characters and world.

Apparently he has no idea what the gif is from so I will ignore all comments on the hair and so on.

My computer is currently awaiting RMA parts so I haven't been able to really watch anything latelllllllllllllyyyyy sucks.

I want to watch Tatami Galaxy, or start rather. I've heard good things, but the art is the main reason for my desire to watch it.

(same guy who did Cat Soup, Kemonozume, Mind Game, Samurai Champloo etc
Also have to get back into Welcome to the NHK (I have the first dvd only).
Need to finish The Melancholy of Haruhi Suziyuma or however it's spelled.
Need to check out Gainax's new Panthose and Stocking or whatever fucked up name it has. Show looks kinda stupid but I need to check it out anyhow because I love me some Gainax.

I also have yet to see the new Neon Genesis Evangelion movies which are supposed to be pretty cool albeit a bit of a money grab.


Just finished Naruto Ultimate Ninja Storm 2. Game is sooooo gorgeous and the care to recreate the anime is enough reason to fall in love with it for me. Now in the next iterations they can focus on making the MP competitive and it'll be perfect.
Who the hell is Lars though? I assume he's from one of the movies I haven't seen. Or filler, I disregard the Naruto anime which has become garbage more and more after it's first few seasons.

Ah but of course we (I?) recognize the girl in the picture. I've not read the FLCL manga, but the anime is heartwarming, heartbreaking and MENTAL.

Agreed!
I just watched the two new Evangelion movies that are out. They're a lot more accessible to the mass market now and up to date. Both are excellent and worth watching. They are very different from the original, especially #2. Now I just need to wait for 3 and 4 to be announced so I can watch those too!
I bet even Megido could get into them :p

Also started watching Tatami Galaxy. The protagonist talks so fast, so it's hard to keep up with at times but otherwise it seems good so far.

I first saw it mentioned on GAF when its first episode released. I've since read the entirety of the manga. I rarely ever do that since most Japanese stuff nowadays makes me embarrassed as hell.

The show's getting to the point where some of the biggest shit starts going down, but they won't get to the epic craziness till sometime next year. Long wait for those huge battles.

Yeah Attack on Titan is INSANE and intense. Watching it with a friend of mine. We went through about 4-6 straight one night.
Don't be embarassed Phaeth, being a nerd is cool now :p

I just finished Guilty Crown. Was expecting more seasons, and the middle was kinda flat but otherwise I enjoyed it.
Not sure I liked the end

The show is moving at a snail's pace. Waiting for them to get to the good stuff. Only 25 eps this year, and I don't think they're gonna make it. Cliffhanger would probably crush any enthusiasm from non-devotees.

Watching Shingeki too atm, I am on episode 5 and really liking it.

If someone want an anime that's more lighthearted and funny I can recommend Gintama.

Have finally caught up with Shingeki, but starting to understand what Phaethon means with "snails pace". 5 min recap and intro, 5 minutes end credits and preview leaves very little to actually watch.

Also watched the first ep of Hellsing Ultimate today which left me wanting more.

If you think the anime is slow try reading the mangas. What I wouldn't give for this thing to be weekly.

Expect some exciting bits, big reveals and then slow down, but then excitement. I'm sort of wondering where they'll end the season at.

Abenobashi Magical Shopping Arcade is from the same relative era and is also mental and heartwarming and maybe a little more coherent.

Abenobashi is indeed excellent and really funny. Flcl is heavy on the art and light on story.
Gainax have a pretty cool new series called Stella Women's Academy. The Japanese name is too long to type on my tablet
