Manga/Anime You Read/Watch

[quote=Bioalchemist]thanks for the summaries joxuu. i will probably give chaos head a shot :)[/quote]

[quote=xIchi]Ok. Since I sold my PC and am now ordering the parts to build up a new rig, throw any anime/manga at me that you think would interest me even the slightest. All genres wellcome, cept of Yuri/Yaoi. Heck I'd even take Shoujo,Gender Bender, Romance one (and I guess those are already pretty awkward to read?). Anyway, halp me.[/quote]

[quote=xIchi]That's probably the only anime I've ever dropped together with SNS 2nd Season...[/quote]

[quote=lifebaka][quote=Searz] I'd be interested in seeing Lifebaka's opinions on this one :P [/quote] I didn't watch it. The first episode didn't really grab me, so I never got around to watching the second. This doesn't mean that the first episode was bad, just that it didn't interest me enough at the time to get me to watch episode 2. [quote=Latest Legend] I also watched a few episodes of Oreimo again. On the edge comedy, inside-jokes and fan-service is part of the plot. Against all my expectations it doesn't take place at school. In fact, I don't even think I've seen a school yet. EDIT: I've reached a great dilemma. Apparently there's a Good End and True End version of episode 12(Yes, I've done my research...). This has led me to believe the following: 1. Suddenly this becomes either a seriously weird anime or they're making fun of eroge games. 2. I'm going to rage here for at least one of the endings. Furthermore I have only time for one version. I guess I'm going to watch the True ending now, because *insert Plato joke here*. EDIT2: I did some research and I think the Good End version was broadcast first so I'll go with that. Will make our Greek friend happy too. EDIT3: Obviously I ended up watching both and ruined my sleep time. Let's just say it was a very dark cave. Well-executed though. In one way it was a prank but in the other it was pretty interesting. The real-world footage outro was a nice idea too. [/quote] I watched most of Oreimo, but I can't honestly suggest it. The first season was pretty great, in that it was gloriously weird about the incestuous sexual tension as a joke without actually condoning incest at any point, which made the whole little sister thing weird and creepy in a way that was deliciously dissonant on the brain. I watched all of the second season, as well, but once I got to the OVAs it seemed to take the whole incest angle a lot more seriously than before. Like maybe it wasn't a joke any more. Which meant that it was never a joke. And it was only ever okay because it was a joke, so... I never finished it because I wasn't okay with the direction it was going in, especially since that direction tainted the entire series. That the series is poking fun at eroge isn't too much of a stretch, but it's nowhere near as stupidly blatant about it as others, like Date A Live (which isn't good, FYI; I don't suggest it). It wouldn't be the first time an anime has explored the whole multiple routes sorta' thing (see: Clannad OVAs), although those that have done this have tended to be based off dating sims instead of light novels.[/quote]

[quote=xIchi]@searz Isn't that one of the shoujo mangas that get's spam updated like shit. Like literally, everyone of these looks exactly the same lol[/quote]

[quote=Searz][quote=xIchi] Isn't that one of the shoujo mangas that get's spam updated like shit. Like literally, everyone of these looks exactly the same lol[/quote] Not sure what you mean about being spam-updated, but it is a shoujo. It's also done at 42chapters, so it's not overly long. And art isn't exactly a strong point of that manga ^^[/quote]

[quote=xIchi]If you look at updates, mangas like this one (like just look at the cover lol), come out every month (new ones) all the time lol[/quote]

[/quote] I finished S1 and I guess I'll leave it at that for a while and waste my time more efficiently. Eventually I'll probably watch it, even if just to bash it :D. I'm a little sad it went that way though. Thanks for the warning. [quote=Searz] [quote=xIchi] Ok.

Omg this is so unrealistic they're crying underwater. I've watched 5 episodes now. The story seems a bit of a cliché so far. Your standard messed-up love triangle with high-school people "growing up" in 26 episodes. Your average I-don't-know-what-the-hell-is-going-on-but-I've-gotta-act-cool-guy, your I'm-going-to-take-care-of-myself-from-now-on-girl, your I'm-loving-the-guy-loving-that-girl-and-I-suppress-it-girl, your I'm-acting-like-I'm-mature-but-I'm-not-girl, your I'm-always-on-top-of-the-situation-guy, your I'm-being-loved-by-the-girl-who-is-loved-by-that-guy-who's-loved-by-that-girl-guy, your live-your-life-the-way-you-want-it-father and your average weird-and-perverse-but-sometimes-wise side-character. Who did I forget? Art is really nice in my opinion. Sea-people are pretty well done I think, but they shouldn't have tried to scientifically back it up in my opinion. I'm enjoying it so far. EDIT: I think the tipping point is about episode 10. It gets better after that. Geometry knowledge requirements increase too.[/quote]
