What anime are you watching/reading?

[Myrrh]

Negima! Is a terrible anime. Some of it was humorous but compared to the manga it's fucking crap.

D: Well I'm really liking it and I'm not really a manga person. So, Myrrh... *thwacks a pie in your face*

Ahh, Speed Grapher. I just watched that a few weeks back. I really enjoyed that one from beginning to end.

I've started to watch Negima! to see what it was all about. So far I've loved it, it's pretty damn funny. I feel like it's just the type of anime I need to watch right now. It definitely had me laughing a bunch of times last night and I'm somewhere close to the middle of the series already. I didn't want to stop but my eyes didn't agree and I had to go sleep eventually. Heh, needless to say I'm really happy that I bought it.

Negima is totally one of my faves. I just wished they released the second half of the second season now. Having to wait until March (I think) is torture.

Just checked, yep, its March when season 2 part 2 is released. But I'm not gonna be getting that.. I think they'll eventually end up just putting the whole second season together on a Viridian collection (I friggen love when Funimation does that) and it'll be cheaper and take up less shelf space.

 

[Rips]

Okay okay, I'm watching Claymore and I love it. Just finished watching episode 5 and loved the plot twist.

Amazing as soon as Teresa named the child Clare, I realized instantly it was Clare. Damn I need to go to bed but want to keep watching more.

Man I can't wait ages for that to happen lol. But I am considering getting Moonphase in that Viridian collection set since the price is pretty awesome.

Currently watching Jinki: Extend right now and to be honest I think it's pretty crap in comparison to most other animes I own. Thankfully I didn't pay that much for it^^
Recently finished Best Student Council and Kaleidostar season 2, which I thought were both great series. Only other series I have in my possession before some new stuff arrives through my door is Najica Blitz Tactics, and I don't really know what to expect from that. Hope it doesn't suck

Okay, so.. I just finished watching Negima! and.. um.. I absolutely loved it.

I uh.. well.. even cried a few times during the last few episodes. Yeah, okay, so I might have been slightly intoxicated while watching those episodes.. but even so, there were some really emotional parts and I just couldn't help it. >_>;;

I'm so looking forward to watching Negima!? now. Unfortunately for me.. I have to wait til March before the second half of the second season is released stateside. So maybe I'll put that off for a while.. but.. I do want to get it now.

Let me guess, Asuna falling out the tree and the subsequent episodes asking the class to help her?

Yeah, that got me aswell XD

Apologies if I ruined any story for ppl since I don't know how to spoiler tag anything here

Just finished Jinki: Extend, not one of my faves but it didn't exactly make my eyes bleed either.

Rewatching Maburaho at the moment, and just had Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha A's arrive today to watch after.

Comedy , horror , mystery

Majin Tantei Nogami Neuro would cure your like for comedy and mystery. It is an ace anime.

 

[Ecks]

Devil Lady (Horror/Action/Drama-maaaybe)

Elfen Lied (the amount of blood in this anime might earn it a type of Horror slot, but I suggest anyone watch it, it's excellent)

Trinity Blood (a type of Horror/Action anime, really good imo)

Blue Gender (Kind of Horrorish/post apocolyptic/partial mecha anime, plenty of action)

I don't really have much comedy, but a lot of the titles I own have comedic moments strewn throughout them. The only actual comedy-ish title I have would be Negima! and it's not a total comedy.

One comedy I have watched though was Excel Saga. And it's pretty funny.

Also (Louie the) Rune Soldier, that's a kind of comedy/action/magic anime. Really enjoyable. ^^

I can't think of too much else atm, and sorry for the late responce I had to work all weekend. :3

 

[Dayner]

k thanks both of you
i cant seem to find Majin Tantei Nogami Neuro ... but ill keep looking , i did see Elfen Lied so that leave me with Devil Lady , Blue Gender and Trinity Blood

for comedy you better watch Seto no Hanayome ,i recommend it ,

 

[Hitaru]

Reading King of hell, which is pretty cool, am on volume 20 just finished reading it and waiting for 21 now. Also reading D.gray Man volume 10 and I need to catch up on Air gear.

Anime Wise I stopped watching Naruto when the Fillers started after they saved Gaara and need to catch up, and bleach...that's about it lol.

It was hard for me to get goin' on it as well, for this same reason. I ended up searchin' it on Veoh and would find people who had a channel for it. I think between two people I got most of the episodes. For the episodes I couldn't find there, I just used Megavideo but that was before they put a cap on how many min. of video you could watch. They were talkin' about liftin' the cap but I dunno if they ever did. I know sites who continue to use them as a host, their users aren't capped.

 

[Aurorastar]

For a good comedy series I would certainly recommend School Rumble

 

[Ecks]

I just watched Afro Samurai: Resurrection today. It was pretty awesome, but not quite as good as the original. Still though it was interesting, and even leaves the Afro Samurai franchise open to another sequel down the road.

I did however have one glaring problem with Resurrection, Kuma's sister was in the orginal series and died.. granted they never formally said it was his sister. But the scar that was on the one female was identical to slice on Sio's back leaving us to conclude that that was his sister in the original series, and that she was killed. The movie/sequel completely changes this, and makes Sio into this crazy ass bitch.

So.. meh to that. I don't like it when they screw with anime that doesn't have a huge story to begin with, yet actually does have one.

Also, I bought Full Metal Alchemist season 1 collection, it's about time they released it all in one. I can deal with the series being in a season 1 and season 2 deal. But that retarded money making move they did at first by splitting the series into 4 parts, was just plain stupid. And I'm glad I didn't waste my money on that. Can't wait to see the upcoming new FMA series.

Bringin' back the beatin' down and near dead in Afro Samurai is a plausible deal. Though be it limited and, I agree, it shouldn't be used often, but it is plausible. You should play the game too if you enjoyed the series and movie, it's a pretty damn fine hack-n-slash. I prefer it to the newer Ninja Gaiden games but we all know I'm no fan of what has become of that series.
