Ugh, struggling here...

 

So, I'm looking at my list and being very indecisive.

 

The Last Airbender is always a safe option...

 

But then again, there are tons of others!

 

Choices choices -.-

 

How's Soul Eater btw?

 

Is Claymore worth it?

 

Jormungund seems to have a character like L in it.

 

Stein's gate?

 

Like I said: choosing your next anime is like a freaking harem ><

 

But to be honest, I'm still looking for than anime which will top FMA:B. Legend of Galactic heroes will probably do it, but I'm saving that for after my exams.

Of course the Titans are scary and creepy. They are 15 meter tall, unstoppable, naked, death machines. Plus they got that uncanny valley feel going for them.

 

If theres one emotion Attack on Titan knows how to handle perfectly in its characters... its fear. :pinched:

 

And yeah, FMA is one of the few dubs I'm aware of that's actually pretty good. Too bad more dubs don't have as high standards.

 

Plus, cannibalism.

 

Evil inhumane monsters eating people alive? Scary. Uncanny valley giant humans doing it? ****** terrifying.

Is this David Gaider, Dave of Canada, David from the land of heroism and characterization, or someone else? Perhaps your own Zach?

 

Clannad is one of those anime I haven't watched because I don't think I'm ready for that level of F*** Your Life. Another one I was looking at recently named "Anohana" sounds similar.

Dave of Heroism is best Dave.

Don't worry, I also watched the show and knew right away who she was.

 

I prefer the chubby version though.

 

 

Hah  :D  I cracked up when they reveal the reason why she put on and loses so much weight. I'm glad to hear someone else here has seen the show. If you don't mind me asking: how did you like it overall?

 

 

@Sim

 

Yay Kill La Kill was just a ton of fun. Definitely some of the craziest pacing I have seen in a show. Glad you enjoyed it!

 

Steins;gate is really well reviewed, I thought it was a bit of a letdown though. Claymore is decent from what I remember. Personally I would go with the Last Airbender though.

I've tried to hold back on too much fangirling over Satsuki but yeah, complete <3 for her. I still haven't gotten a chance to make any more progress on it yet. Had some intentions to work on it last night but things came up. Unfortunately I think I might have had some spoiler images for the last episode from the people I follow on Tumblr who don't tag their posts so I can't blacklist the tags til I'm done, but I suppose I'll survive without the context.

 

 

SR1: I don't know if anyone has already filled your request, but I'll shoot you over a message. :3

If you haven't watched Airbender, do so- it starts a bit moral-of-the-week in season one, but picks up into a very strong story arc and character development during season 2.

 

Soul Eater is solid- certainly entertaining, and good choreography. A bit cliche at the end, but hey.

 

Claymore is a fine manga, but was a painful anime (which went off in its own direction). Basically female shounen, sort of.

 

Jormungund was... meh to me. Like a less intense Black Lagoon (which, if you haven't watched, I recommend you do).

 

Steins Gate is trippy. It's slow and confusing at the start, enough that I almost quit after the first episode, but that's very much a deliberate lull and false security.

 

 

 

Just to throw a few others in your pot-

 

If you want some solid giant robot action, both halves of Gundam 00 were pretty good in different ways. Season 1 was a deconstruction of the 'giant robot wars For Peace' trope that a lot of mecha have, with more focus on politics/mystery and less on the action (which was good but short), but Season 2 was an extremely top-notch mecha action show that blended the Real Robot genre with the Super Robot genre even more than Season 1.

 

 

If you want something a bit shorter, Star Driver was both over the top mecha and very self-aware silly. Good fights, amusing teenage hormone antics without getting sappy or lacking in self-awareness.

 

 

But if you really enjoy character development, enough to forgive dated animation and the cliches of the children's-monsters genre... Digimon is actually a very good franchise, seasons 1 (Adventure) and 3 (Tamers) especially. It is, without apology, about kids growing up with monster companions being the catalyst. They start young and flawed (but generally well intentioned and likable), and end up wiser, more mature, and better people by the end of the adventure that starts small and gradually grows in scale as they do.

 

Really, really good storymaking behind it. Annoying characters are generally annoying on purpose, and grow out of it. Plus, the english adaptation was well done in many respects- not just a literal translation, but fitting in more appropriate wording and inserting a steady sense of humor into it.

I watched Digimon about a year ago. Not as good as I remember it being as a kid, but it was still entertaining.

The character dynamic in Digimon was decent.

@animusandanima

Why hold back? I've been fanboying over her since I watched episode 3 :D just give in to the awesomeness.

Also I don't suppose you would mind sending me the same link your giving mhmbaSR1?

She's a weird character, but to be honest, I'm glad she's the big bad. I kinda had a feeling that all was not as it seemed in the Academy, so it's cool to see that I was right.

 

I enjoy Nui more though, she's amusing :-)

 

Oh...

 

btw...

Isi: But then eventually my lack of eloquence would become obvious when I'm crushing on a character and then everything would just degrade into hasvfdagsfuiafriogahsfSatsukivasfoigasfoi :wub: Terrible thing, that! X3

 

I'll send you along a message as well too! :3

Errr... no. Why should I?

 

OH I'M JUST KIDDING :D

 

It's unethical to have so much sexy sexy stuff just there for everybody to look at. I might cause someone to bleed to death xD

Watched 3 episodes of Airbender. It's weird how you know it's an american cartoon from just the dialogue and humour. Right now it's kinda 'meh.' But look at FMA:B, my initial impressions on that were 'meh' as well, but it ended up being my favourite anime so far.

Are we talking about the original, or the half thousand spinoffs since then? I was talking about the full-cour seasons.

Random Gundam Battle of the one year war of the day.

 

a Zaku 2 Kai Variant fighting against the "Gundam" Type Alex.

 

Basically you have a mass production run mobile suit fighting against a better made singular variant MS, Quality vs Quantity so to speak.

 

The Synopsis is that Late during the Zeonic war of Independence you have an Elite Zeonic Commando team infiltrating a supposedly neutral side to discover it is manufacturing weapons for the Federation, including a new Gundam type. Zeonic High Command delivers an Ultimatum to the Team, Destroy the gundam before Christmas or it will be forced to destroy the colony using Nuclear weapons.  Through out their attempts to destroy the Gundam the team is slowly whittled down to a singular member and Zaku which he has spent the better part of the series rebuilding. So how does the Zaku pilot overcome the vast difference in quality in their MS? He uses the terrain, distraction and a willingness to die for the Spacenoid cause.

 

Fairly intense and climatic battle.

There is no "spin offs" in UC its all part of the original Gundam Universe after all.

 

But if you want me to speak plainly: everything from Mobile Suit gundam 0079 to Unicorn, that's what i consider "UC".

Jesus man, how many shows do you juggle at once?

 

ATLA becomes really good after the 2nd season, although I loved the second half of the first one aswell.

I'm a student. I have a lot of time. I can binge a show in a day if I skip school xD

 

When I get into something, I don't back out that easily har!

 

 

And it's a shame that I'll have to wait 20 episodes for things to get good. Unless I REALLY enjoy the second half :P

12 episodes, really- and a number of them are exceptional as well.

Fair enough. Like I said, I didn't like FMA:B all that well when I first watched it, but damn did it grow to be the best anime I've watched so far.

 

But it's kinda hard when all I can think of is Kill la Kill atm.
