Youtube also has the entire first season in HD on Bandai's channel.
 
Watching: Bleach, Inuyasha (again), Death Note (again) and FullMetalAlchemist (again)

Reading: Faster than a kiss, 666 Satan, Wall Flower and Loveless. :biggrin: I reccomend Loveless! Is really good. ;o
 
Finished Karin 3 days ago (not a bad show by all means) and currently re-watching my Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha again. Finished Season 1 yesterday and on A's (season 2) now. StrikerS (season 3) to follow after that.

Will probably watch Sasami after that which is unwatched since i'm going through a Mahou Shoujo phase right now lol.
 
I'm gonna recommend this series:

Spice and Wolf.



If your in the mood for a short romance series, I say check this out. There is a sequel series mind you so... yeah. Also, the DVDs will be released by Funi November 24th, the Light Novels and Manga will be released by Yen Press in 2010.
 
Really didn't expect what just happened to happen...; ; Lockon ='(
 
Just finished the first season and wow...I can't believe all that just happened ; ;. On another note...I do like Tieria more now though ^^;

Tieria does gain a LOT of character development in the series, he is pretty much my favourite character in the series.

He has a secret...but after the whole Lockon thing he becomes a bit more human. I still can't believe that all those lives were lost...I actually liked the minor characters!
 
Woah. FMA: Brotherhood's 20th episode was rather daring as it actually did show Edward Throwing up in disgust. Wow...

FMA is daring. One of the reason's I love it. ^^b
 
00 finished...Amazing series! I enjoyed it the most out of G, Wing and 00 it's probably my favourite.

The reason I'm interested in SeeD is because it was in DW: Gundam 2 and I played Shin a lot and wanted to know his story...

00 really made me happy by including Arab/middle eastern characters in it. It was also quite a sad story...

I am prolly going to start watching Zeta and ZZ. Also, which Gundam series is Seabook in?

If you're going to start watching Z and ZZ make sure you watch Mobile Suit Gundam first, since its all one big story arc. Seabook is from F91 which was a pretty terrible movie, which is only marginally better than watching a terrible series like SEED. Wanna know whats up with Shin? He's fighting people who are fighting to stop the fighting that he is also fighting to stop. Show is retarded.

Kira is also a self righteous pussy.

Gundam series you NEED to watch.

Original, Zeta, ZZ, Char's Counterattack, Wing (and Endless Waltz), Victory (For goodness sake prepare yourself with this one, it is DARK!), The 08th MS Team, War in the Pocket, Stardust Memory, X, Turn A, F91 isn't that bad.

Just for god sake stay away from SEED and SEED Destiny, they are complete shit.

Oh, and above all else, starting winter.

MOBILE SUIT GUNDAM UNICORN

Oh and Victory has my favourite end theme ever.



WINNERS FOREVER~

That's just stupid then...I'll avoid it haha, so MSG > Z > ZZ got it =D. So F91 is just a movie...hmmm I'll see if I can torrent that then.

I've seen Wing and Endless waltz and also G gundam and now 00. I don't think Kumby has Victory as far as I can see it also doesn't have Char's counterattack war in the pocket and stardust memory.

Kumby has the following listed: Mobile Suit Gundam, 00, 0083, 8th Ms team, Turn A, X/After war, Z and ZZ.

If you know where I can see the ones you mentioned that aren't here then that'd help XD

Is the 8th MS team a short series? on Kumby it only seems to have 12 episodes...

Again thanks for the help guys ^^ so far each series recommended has been awesome.
 
0083 is Stardust Memory, 0080 is War in the Pocket, which you can totally skip, I can't vouch for Victory being any good, I can tell you that none of the designs were very popular. Char's Counterattack is another movie which is on Kumby, DO NOT recommend the dub. Couldn't get into X no matter how hard I tried, and keep forgetting to watch Turn A.

I love X, it's an under appreciated classic. I liked Victory in general, despite the shows grim nature (Hitaru, I really do suggest you prepare yourself for this one) and Turn A is fantastic. I guess that's just me though ;P

And some of 4chan's /m/ board XD

I'm watching the Dubbed episodes and so far every character has the DW: Gundam voice actors, I didn't mind them. I think Amuro is a whiny bitch though, so when I found out it was his series I was kinda like blah lol... I do like Judau and Kamille though. With the movie I'll look for it on the sub if it's really that crap...

With this 00...I actually teared up 3 times:

Lockons death, End of season 1 and End of season 2/when Tieria got shot...You guys ended up being right...I liked him more and more because he acted more like a human.

Is it dark in a sense that characters you're attached to end up brutally killed in some way? (I know you're both not trying to spoil anything and I am so glad lol!)
 
Anyone who is a fan of to-LOVE-ru and has a particular fondness for pairings in the series, best start getting ready, serialization is ending.

This year's 39th issue of Shueisha's Shonen Jump magazine has confirmed on Monday that Saki Hasemi and Kentaro Yabuki's To Love-Ru -Trouble- manga will end its serialization in the next issue on August 31. The three most recent compiled book volumes of the science-fiction romantic comedy manga have bundled original anime DVDs in special editions. A television anime series aired last year.

Will it be a Rito x Lala ending or Rito x Haruna ending?

Personally, I like both pairings and would love for either to happen.
 
I splurged yesterday (and really shouldn't have) and bought Gunslinger Girl: Il Teatrino.

Not sure when I'll get around actually watching it, but it probably won't be until after I've beaten Batman: Arkham Asylum. I'm glad to finally have it thought, ever since I watched the first series and then found out there was a second I've been looking forward to watching it.
 
Recently finished watching the following anime :-

Sasami Magical Girls Club - Got both seasons really cheap online and although it wasn't amazing it was typical mahou shoujo stuff and fun to watch. Nowhere near as good as Nanoha but worth watching for fans of the magical girl genre.

Shakugan no Shana Second - I went an awful long time after seeing season 1 to watch this and not sure why I waited so long cause this was awesome. I'd still rate season 1 as the better of the 2 but I liked this all the same. I felt that the last part was wrapped up too quickly in the last couple of episodes whereas they probably could have dragged it out a bit further in place of some of the filler episodes in the middle as it seemed rather rushed. Still worth watching if you're into your action/fantasy/romance anime or if you have seen the first season.

Magical Shopping Arcade Abenobashi - I bought this a while back since it was super cheap on play.com but I wasn't expecting it to be anything great. Finally got around to watching it and much to my surprise thought this was quite awesome. It felt similar in a way to Excel Saga in that each episode has a different setting and you have the main cast of characters try and act it out. Lots of funny moments and plenty of references to other animes like Evangelion and DBZ.

Higurashi no Naku Koro ni / When they Cry - I bought this since I was intrigued by all the praise and good reviews it got and after watching it I wasn't dissappointed. From first glance it looked like this was gonna be some usual harem moe girl anime but that was until the horrific murder plot comes into play. It proves that even the cute girls have a sinister side to them and no-one can be trusted. Higurashi is probably one of the most thought provoking anime I have seen in a while as you are always trying to work out the truth behind the murders happening and who is behind it all and it really was a refreshing change from the norm. It reminded me a little of Elfen Lied because of its horrific violence lol, but the story is a hell of a lot deeper. Highly recommended.

About to start watching Gunslinger Girl since it's burning a hole on my shelf and if it's good i'll probably buy the recently released season 2 ;D
