Manga/Anime You Read/Watch

[quote=XeresAce]^ We discussed that a few pages back Final verdict: not as good as novel and has crappy animation but still good/10 [quote]Shingeki no Kyojin actually lost to Psycho Pass! I'm not taking anything away from PP, it's a definitely good world class anime, but damn we're talking about SnK here! And SnK's fanbase is quite big, so that was really a surprise.[/quote] *tear of pride* EDIT: Well... here are the results Psycho-Pass: 394 - AoT: 393 So I guess we can say it was pretty close? 8D[/quote]

[quote=utopus]Looking for a new anime to watch; I finished sword art online season 1, death note, and fullmetal alchemist - brotherhood. I've been told that angel beats, fate/zero and mirai nikki are all good, but i was wondering if you guys had any suggestions? Looks like it may be a little difficult to find fate/zero episodes :S[/quote]

[quote=Searz]^I can recommend Nichijou if you're into comedy.[/quote]

I'd recommend others for you but the list would simply be too long. Just check out the popular titles on Crunchyroll.[/quote]

So we can go for some older stuff like D.Gray Man or the Fate series. If you want you can just start the 2nd season of SAO (2 episodes out atm I think). Tho, SAO is crap, biased opinion. Mirai Nikki is also interesting but for me personally it was just medicore at the end. Nothing new that would cry out that it is special and the MC is just more annoying than Jacuzzi(Baccano) and Shinji(NGE) combined into one meatsack of annoying shit. 9th was actually the most interesting character at the end. Why is it hard to find episodes? Can't you just go on some random anime hosting website?[/quote]

[quote=Searz][quote=xIchi] So we can go for some older stuff like D.Gray Man[/quote] The storytelling in that one is a damn mess. It's ultimately nothing special because it squanders its potential with messy storytelling. The manga that is at least.[/quote]

[quote=xIchi]Didn't read the Manga, but lets say the anime was pretty entertaining for it's lenght and I never felt like the story did not move forward :o[/quote]

One of my favorite animes for sure, just so calming to watch it.[/quote]

Looks like it may be a little difficult to find fate/zero episodes :S [/quote] [i]Angel Beats[/i] is kinda' like SAO, insofar as both seem to have a bunch of extraordinary stuff going on but ultimately are about feelings. It was definitely good, but not really stellar. I'm watching [i]Mirai Nikki[/i] right now, and it's just not particularly tightly plotted or written. The opening episodes were really solid, but now it's kinda' floundering in the middle. Maybe would've been better as a 13-ish episode run, to force tighter plotting, but it's still pretty good all things told. Very yandere. Many crazy. I wasn't a fan of [i]Fate/Zero[/i], as I've mentioned before. I just don't feel like it gets things done fast enough, and the fight scenes are too slow, short, and spread out to hold it together. I didn't even bother watching the second season, after the first didn't impress me. As for other suggestions, watch [i]Puella Magi Madoka Magica[/i]. Everyone should watch [i]Madoka[/i]. It's really, really good. It's on Hulu and Netflix, and I can direct you to fansubs if neither of those are realistic options. And [i]Baccano![/i], which Ichi mentions in passing, is also quite good. It makes great use of nonlinear storytelling to simultaneously cover stories set at three separate times, bringing them all together quite nicely in the end. Not a lot of feels here, but the violence is wonderful. I also second Searz's recommendation of [i]Nichijou[/i]. That show was fucking hilarious.

It just couldn't tell an engaging story to save its life. Its intended audience is relatively young, and holy hell does it show in how it handles things. If you're interested in this particular setup, [i]Deadman Wonderland[/i] is similar in concept and tone, but is just straight up superior in every way. [i]No Game No Life[/i] was really fun, but I'm not sure that it'd appeal to someone who doesn't watch a lot of anime. It's playing heavily to some of the hikimori/otaku tropes to great effect, but that might be offputting to someone who isn't already familiar with them. Plus it needs at least another season to really finish telling its story, so it might be better to wait and see how that turns out.[/quote]

[/quote] i only watched a bit of the animation, but it's based on the video game, which is definitely not for younger audiences, so unless they tuned it down a whole bunch i don't see how it could be. deadman wonderland is good from what i hear though. personally i enjoyed ngnl despite not watching a lot of anime, but agree it needs at least another season[/quote]
