It's currently ongoing with 3 more episodes left so it will be a couple more weeks before then.

 

I'll write something up on it when I'm done with it, though don't expect it to be as well written as some of the stuff you've seen from Chris. I'm thinking it will be somewhere between a 5/10 to a 7/10 depending on how the next few episodes turn out.

You guys ;___;

 

Anyway, I'm actually very intrigued to read others analysis' -- I mainly did that with the Metal Gear games to compare notes with my own interpretations. Feel free to share it here and I'll do the same.

[Isichar]

Wat?

 

That's ... I just got dumber just reading the synopsis. I don't think I'm going to lobotomize myself and actually watch that.

 

There's an assassin who is trying to kill the one girl so she can wish to not be an assassin it's like she tore a page right out of the Catalysts book of logic. Maybe I just missed the part of the episode that explained why she couldn't just, y'know, NOT be an assassin to begin with.

 

Your not missing out on much. The story has some aspects that make it intriguing but I have too many issues with the execution to properly recommend it.

 

 

 

@Chris

 

I enjoy writing my own analysis for a series from time to time. It just usually ends up with me gushing or ranting a lot

[Liamv2]

Ok then not watching that one. You guys are good for filtering out the awfulness.

Probably putting that one very far down the massive list, got far too many interesting animes to pick from so always useful to know that at least one of them i can skip for a long time coming

Well, just finished watching Steins;Gate. Overall, enjoyed it quite a bit. Maybe I'm crazy though, but I think I liked the earlier episodes better, when  the characters are still working out the mechanics behind time travel.

 

Once the story takes off with the "save the world" plot, it becomes a bit more disorienting/a bit less interesting. 

 

Edit: 

 

In the mean time, does anyone have any non-shonen action anime they could recommend me? Preferably with a good plot/characters to go along with it. Also with a more serious art style, kinda like Darker than Black or Samurai Champloo. 

[Liamv2]

So since i'm already watching 3 ongoing series I want watch something thats completed but i'm having trouble deciding. Which should I go with Clannad, Full metal alchemist brotherhood or Black lagoon?

I thought it was going great until the final confrontation with Shouichi. I admit that entire interaction really dropped my opinion of the anime significantly.

 

Spoiler

The guys suppose to be a scientist and hes having a nervous breakdown attacking random people he just met with a knife because hes insecure about having a smart daughter? And Involving Okabe's plan to let himself get stabbed... I'm just going to say it, that's one of the most terrible plans I've ever heard.

 

I did think it was pretty cool how he had to trick the world into thinking Kurisu was dead to make the timelines match up, but otherwise I just wasn't willing to go with it.

 

The other thing is I *HATED* was Moeka, worst introvert character I've ever seen across any form of fiction

 

I wish the ending was as good as the middle of the story was.

 

 

P.S. sorry for any stupid mistakes, I still have a really bad head cold.

Oh ****, that's tough.

 

I have not seen BL (I know most the people here love it though) but personally I think FMA:B would be your most reliable choice. All 3 are worth checking out eventually though.

[Liamv2]

Ok then i'll give that a try.

[Liamv2]

Holy **** 64 episodes and a movie!!! This is gonna take a while.

[TheChris92]

The movie doesn't matter -- It's not canon. The episodes are all worth it though, my good man.

[Liamv2]

So ignore the movie huh. Is there any decent ova's I should know about?

[Liamv2]

Oh this is exactly my kinda thing.

[Liamv2]

Thanks. I already went with the dub. I tend to choose them over subs but i'm fine with both.

[Isichar]

P.S The dub is probably one of the best, if not, THE best in anime.

 

Pretty much is.

 

Hell I think the dub is good and I'm a subs elitist so that's got to tell you something.

 

I'd still go with the sub but only because Romi Park's voice is like crack to my ears.

Out of those 3 options i've seen FMAB and BL. I'd say go with FMAB, it's longer and will keep you occupied with a lot of great content for a longer time than BL. BL is amazing though so would always recommend it aswell!

 

This 

 

or this!

 

Love them both

Anyway, enjoying Rin so far. I like the main character, and the fact that she's gay is refreshing. I don't really know how to put my finger on it, but what would be considered typical 'fanservice' doesn't really feel like it in, Rin. The setting is supernatural in the same way Vampire the Masquerade is, everything that is out of this world is really just kept incognito. So the unpleasantries and complexities of the world are very much there. So sex doesn't factor out of the equation, it's part of real life and so, it's there. It's no more fanservice than the sex scenes in A Song of Ice and Fire. It all flows naturally with the narrative and general setting.

 

It's only been two episodes, but the relationship between Rin (the protagonist) and her lover promises a lot more than just 'lol Yuri.' And anyway, so far all they've done is kiss, and even then it was 'off camera.'

 

I'm only focusing so much on that aspect here because normally 'ecchi' would put off people because they'll immediately think of Highschool of the Dead, but when what they're really missing is a good detective anime, mixed it with supernatural elements that don't make you scratch your head and say 'waht?'

 

Rin is also a badass xD

 

P.S - it's kind of hard to follow the plot at times since its in subs so reading + listening and paying attention is a lot more than just listening and paying attention. I forget names mentioned before since normally I'd associate them with language (if that makes any sense at all.) If they were to mention a Mafia gang in English, the moment that name is said again it'd trigger the connection faster. But that's something personal I lack, nothing to be worried about.

 

Yay! You started watching it!

[Clover Rider]

If you haven't watched it, you could try Wolf's Rain. I just started it, it seems pretty good and I don't think it's shounen. Something Geth recommended a looong time ago, before tokusatsu, so I will have to put Mahou Sentai Magiranger on hold for now.

Yeah Wolf's Rain is one of the bestest anime there is. Everyone watch it.

 

Then everyone watch Magiranger. Then watch Boukenger since that comes next after Magiranger.

 

Then watch Jetman because I said so.

So I was writing my Bebop analysis but then I got off subject by talking about anime in general as a medium, it's growth, Hayao Miyazaki's effect on the west etc. and now I've ended up with walls of text about that -- So I decided to separate it into different columns and just write about that first given how awkward it felt like suddenly having to remember YOU'RE TRYING TO WRITE ABOUT BEBOP, DAMNIT. Felt like I needed to talk about the former, anyway, even though I've written about it like 3 times before, lol.
