oh man now i understand why 2nd gig ep 15 took so fucking long. the first ten minutes is a BOMBARDMENT of sociological theory, and the timing must have been insane too. what a fansubbing nightmare.

and on that note, the ep itself was fucking awesome (it's the tachikoma ep for 2nd gig).

Yeah, I couldn't even make out the majority of what was going on when I was watching the raw so I can't even imagine how hard it must have been for the translator.

Seed 3 raw is out but nobody is seeding it.

I really don't care what happens in FMP as long as SOMETHING happens to the Chidori x Sosuke realtionship, and I mean SOMETHING worth waiting for, not the ending of the first season or the two little cute deals in the second season.

i think rozen maiden is making me pedo

Killey · Post by **Killey** » Sun Oct 31, 2004 8:19 pm

It looks like someone finally subbed Viewtiful Joe. It's either that or a raw group is just really behind in releasing stuff.

Can anyone confirm it's subbed? I'm a BUSY PERSON, and cannot wait 2 hours for a mere raw!

Doom · Post by **Doom** » Sun Oct 31, 2004 10:50 pm

It's a mediocre sub, yes.

Wow, I can see why nobody else subbed it now

On the upside, I love the theme song, and it's always fun to watch something that was subbed without a spell-checker.

Now I just need to find the theme song, so that I never have to watch Viewtiful Joe again \o/

Killey · Post by **Killey** » Mon Nov 01, 2004 6:39 am

What is that bad?
I havn't seen the show myself but I skipped through the raws and I thought it looked quite interesting. The game was really fun so I thought the anime wouldn't be so bad and Tomokazu Seki as Joe is a big

for me.

I really need to download Beck soon.

Leftover · Post by **Leftover** » Mon Nov 01, 2004 6:56 am

Does anyone miss the stuff they've seen already?

I mean I really must be the sappiest motherfucker on this forum but I started playing the OST to RoD TV, Scrapped, and Stellvia, and I got stupid depressed.

It's me, isn't it?

Oh GOD, I don't want even think about how much of a moron I'm going to become once KS is over.

Kokaku · Post by **Kokaku** » Mon Nov 01, 2004 7:32 am

I'm going to send you pictures from KS with "IT'S OVER" right over top of them.

neil · Post by **neil** » Mon Nov 01, 2004 8:04 am

What is that bad?

The artwork is appealing, the animation is nice, the action scenes are awesome, and in my opinion, the only things Viewtiful Joe misses are :

a) Characters with 2 or more dimensions
b) A plot that takes more than 6 words to describe in it's entirey

I tend to take characters and plot over all else. You could pretty much draw an anime entirely with stick figures, and as long as it told an interesting storyline, and created characters I wanted to see interact with each other, then I'd eat it up with a spoon.

Jiewtiful Joe is basicaly the complete opposite of an appealing anime, to me

..But I *DO* like the theme song ^^;

well there are lots of shows ive seen that i wish i hadnt already so i could discover them all over again
rewatching just isnt the same

Leftover · Post by **Leftover** » Mon Nov 01, 2004 6:19 pm

like?

:O?

Doom · Post by **Doom** » Mon Nov 01, 2004 7:09 pm

Hmm... first time watching EoE, RX, GTO, and Fumoffu, and first time reading I"s are the things that come to mind immediately.

Leftover · Post by **Leftover** » Mon Nov 01, 2004 7:22 pm

Oh!

Kokaku sent me Rahx and 35 episodes of seed!

I should get them in the mail mucho soon.

Doom · Post by **Doom** » Mon Nov 01, 2004 7:27 pm

Not like you'll watch them.

I wish I could watch Eva over and over again for "the first time" so my hatred of Asuka could stay fresh and sharp

Henchman #2 · Post by **Henchman #2** » Mon Nov 01, 2004 9:06 pm

I really would like to see RX, but I'm too poor to rent/buy DVDs.

Well, It's not so bad for me because I end up purchasing the DVDs in the end so I can rewatch the series I loved so much. I watched the 3rd Volume to ROD TV last Saturday and I'm loving it even more with the dolby digital 5.1 surrond sound.

I still have to make time to watch Stellvia though.

Leftover wrote: Oh GOD, I don't want even think about how much of a moron I'm going to become once KS is over.

Then you'll know how I feel right about now. I'm just glad that the DVDs are being released at a fairly decent rate.

Doom wrote:Not like you'll watch them.

Anytime I get anime en masse I watch it as soon as possible.

I watched like, 87 episodes of Inu Yasha in about a week. Read all of Kenshin in 8 hours. Ten hours for Ranma. Three days of Evangelion, two for Trigun.

SO THERE

!!

Leftover · Post by **Leftover** » Tue Nov 02, 2004 6:07 pm

Oh and I've decided that after I finish KS and this seasons current offerings, I'm going to stop watching anime for a while.

Or at least I'm going to try too. I mean I did it for like three years straight, and then Doom popped up and Scrapped, and Stellvia, and then this forum happened again like three times.

Doom · Post by **Doom** » Tue Nov 02, 2004 6:22 pm

I thought about cutting back this season since I've been so busy, but now I have a new hard drive.

Leftover · Post by **Leftover** » Tue Nov 02, 2004 7:09 pm

Good going Doom for brains.

DOOM AND LEFTOVER CONQUERING ANIME TOGETHER.

I'm going to go download Rozen Maiden because of you now.

Doom · Post by **Doom** » Tue Nov 02, 2004 8:36 pm

I'll grant you that there haven't been many shows lately that have sucked me in, but neither did some of the former heavyweights (in the beginning, I mean). Gankutsuou might snatch the title this year...

Leftover · Post by **Leftover** » Wed Nov 03, 2004 6:59 am

I'm delaying Gakutsuou for a while, I"ll catch up to it later.

Rozen Maiden is good, I liked it. Super cute, quite creative too.

The only series I am BURSTING to see more of Maria-sama, that's it.

Such was said about SAC, JK, etc...

Leftover · Post by **Leftover** » Wed Nov 03, 2004 3:55 pm

Genshiken 2 was pretty good. I rather like the series.

Plaztik · Post by **Plaztik** » Wed Nov 03, 2004 5:41 pm

I'm currently going for Bleach and Gankutsuou...i watched both first episodes
Bleach = Cool
Gankutsuou = Stunningly Beautiful

Leftover · Post by **Leftover** » Wed Nov 03, 2004 7:19 pm

Doom · Post by **Doom** » Wed Nov 03, 2004 7:47 pm

Kannaduki seems to have settled down more, so now it's become fairly average... hope things pick up.

Genshiken is awesome and anyone who says otherwise probably deserves to be raped.

Seta · Post by **Seta** » Thu Nov 04, 2004 2:14 am

Doom wrote:Genshiken is awesome and anyone who says otherwise probably deserves to be raped.

Yeah, I'm liking Genshiken. Thought it was going to be a mediocre series with ugly, cliche art based on pictures but it's turning out pretty good.

And Mai-Hime is my favorite this season by far.

Doom · Post by **Doom** » Thu Nov 04, 2004 3:08 am

Because the characters in Genshiken are supposed to be pretty?...

thirdchildren · Post by **thirdchildren** » Thu Nov 04, 2004 3:18 am

just watched 2nd Gig 15, class episode, but I'd hate to have to fansub that bitch.
Bleach 5 is out, dling it now, I really want to see the fight with Chad against that Leechbomb Hollow(whatever it's name is)

:O?

well my number one choice would be LE actually, and PA second. while alot of shows have grown on me, like planetES, those just blew away from first ep. also the bebop movie made a huge impression on me and to this day i consider it one of the best made movies, just because it looks like its handdrawn all the way through and not cg like everything is these days. and with manga 20thcb and I"s

Ugly art as in the characters in the opening. Yeah, I'm an idiot like that.

Doom · Post by **Doom** » Thu Nov 04, 2004 5:15 am

You mean the Kujian chars?

Xephonic · Post by **Xephonic** » Thu Nov 04, 2004 5:17 am

Just saw Fafner 16..
holy shit! Seriously if you even slightly like the mecha genre GET THIS SHOW NOW!!!

Doom · Post by **Doom** » Thu Nov 04, 2004 6:09 am

Fafner is definitely very solid. It's worth sticking with.

Seta · Post by **Seta** » Thu Nov 04, 2004 6:55 am

Doom wrote:You mean the Kujian chars?

Yeah, thought that was what the show is going to be like (huge mistake of course).

Hard for me to give a show a try if I don't like the art.

Killey · Post by **Killey** » Fri Nov 05, 2004 12:45 am

I saw Genshiken episode 1 with a friend and while it was quite funny I don't think it really is spooge worthy. I find the concept highly amusing but it's pretty much similar to Otaku no Video except done better. The beginning completely threw me off as I was yelling at my friend that he downloaded Kujibikiri Unbalance instead of Genshiken. The choice of voices are big

for me and the ending theme ownz.

to Mai-Hime episode 5.
Finally starting to see character development although nothing great at the moment but we'll see how it turns out later on. Unfortuantely, there's no action in this episode and I didn't get any sword action.

TheDarkOne · Post by **TheDarkOne** » Fri Nov 05, 2004 7:44 am

apparently in conjunction with Genshiken, they're ACTUALLY releasing Kujibikiri Unbalanced too... which they appear to have made into a real anime...

Seta · Post by **Seta** » Sun Nov 07, 2004 3:55 am

About 3 months late (as usual) and possibly posting in the wrong thread but man, Melody of Oblivion is great. I've had it on my harddrive for a while now but never got around to watching it. Looking out for ep 16 now.

thirdchildren · Post by **thirdchildren** » Sun Nov 07, 2004 4:01 am

I love that series, why is there no ep16 yet though? Is it on hold like Samurai Champloo?

Seta · Post by **Seta** » Sun Nov 07, 2004 4:06 am

Don't think so. I've seen episodes 16+ summarized on forums in the past.

I would also like to say that the random fanservice, especially during the Melos scenes, is hilarious.

thirdchildren · Post by **thirdchildren** » Sun Nov 07, 2004 4:11 am

I cant find it on torrents or irc at all though

especially since the revelation at the end of 15
Fanservice

R-B is awfully slow
