Hm, while I was away from the internet, I finished Baccano! It was a pretty fun series, and while I know triangles and MJP watched it (thanks to their cosplay), I'm wondering if anyone else has.

Gonna be watching Sengoku Basara Season 2, and I'll probably look for Cat Shit One later. I kinda want to watch High School of the Dead, but it'll probably end up on the indefinite backburner. I dunno when I'm even gonna get around to Arakawa now...

Jana: I just want to say that I blame you for my always thinking that Ana's name actually is Jana.

Everyone's a critic!

Episode 3 had me biting my nails today. The plot is changing~

I AM THE GOD OF THE NEW WORLD

BOW BEFORE ME
LET'S HAVE (BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP) lol spoilers

I have almost all the translated Inazuma doujins.
The Facial! was probably my favorite and you can probably guess the subject of the doujin based on the title. It is sad that Inazuma draws too much saggy tits, half his doujin work.... are... to be said, strangely unarousing.

No Internet Marathon summary:

School Rumble - oh this was so great and awesome except for the pathetic dumbass ridiculous obvious ending
Toradora! - things didn't really go as I wanted them to but that's because I'm me. Toradora = love. Especially every single one of those Minorin bits
To Aru Majutsu no Index - yep, watched it before Railgun. Actually, I just finished it right now, and while it was great, the Index bit was kinda missing alot, wasn't it? I sure hope Railgun has more Railgun than Index has Index. I didn't even watch her show yet and I'm in love with her.

Also I'm finally working my way through Chobits, which is completely different than what I expected it to be, and gonna start Railgun right now.

edit: Wait, Railgun came out before Index? wtf *googles* Oh nvm me I'm stupid I thought it was the other way around.
wait again, this just proves my point, Onee-sama is lovely.

Chobits is lovely. It was one of the shows that got me into anime to begin with!

I agree.

It was my first Anime in so long. From there, I harbored a new addiction.

Both the Manga and the Anime were beautiful works of art.

Oh and that reminds me, I have to finish Queen's Blade. :3

Almost done with Azumanga Daioh, which I found to be rather less funny than advertised. About to start with Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei.

Baccano! is glorious and you should immediately move on to DuRaRaRa, made by the same folks.

Tengukami · « **Reply #281 on:** July 21, 2010, 04:10:38 PM »

Now that I've decided to stop following Ookami-san, I'm moving on to High School of the Dead. I keep seeing people hooting about "guns, tits and zombies", and I really hope there's more to it than that, but I need something new to watch, so I'm open to ideas.

Solais · « **Reply #282 on:** July 21, 2010, 04:38:08 PM »

So I finally rewatched Bakemonogatari, now with the missing episodes. I still love it, it would be great if there'd be a sequel. However, when I set the series to complete on MyAnimeList, I saw a recommendation to Arakawa, saying "same artstyle". As I see, it's another SHAFT product, and since Zetsubou-sensei, I loved that artsy style what Bakemonogatari also had. Also I read good things about it here, I guess I should watch it?

Definitely. And it's also got the same style of humor, if that means anything.

OK, watched the first two episodes of High School of the Dead. I think this is definitely a keeper for my collection, if for no other reason than it's a great example of horror anime done right. It even has some comedic, campy elements that are really enjoyable, and the pacing is good.

Guns tits and zombies

That's all I need for a good Anime lol

Anyway, there's a plot, and it's very untraditional in terms of horror shows. It delivers you the goods straight up. No annoying excessive suspense to build up.

It really does hook you in with just the preview holy crap.

It's interesting right now because the plot expands. The characters seem a little stereotypical at first (loli, tsundere, meganeko, otaku nerd, badass protagonist, good-looking guy, and best friend)

Spoiler:

immediately telling you that the Anime has got quite the number of tricks up it's sleeve. Almost like yelling "screw stereotypes" or something. =/

*read Tengu's new comment*

Okay, so you like it.

High School of the Dead started to be released as manga a couple of months ago here.
I couldn't get it yet due to moving and bank fusion fucking up with all my money, so I'll have to get the ones already out online, but I as azombie freak am excited to read since I first ever heard of it.
Finding out it was released here and I couldn't buy it was like a punch to the balls

Oh come on now.... I know all the scanlation-stuff is a dark-grey area, but with 80% of the stuff on those sites being manga that will never ever be released outside of Japan.... :/

Whatever, nothing to do than search for other sites, though I heard a lot of them are biting the dust just like OM at the moment...

I deeply believed the manga for HOTD was cancelled for all the wrong reasons, it is a high end, well written apocalyptic zombie infestation surivor story that has ecchi in it.
and I am pretty certain it is not that way because ultimately it is about these guys who survived all the shit getting thrown at them. It is the characters, (see episode 3)

I just realized why I found Yuki-Onna from Nuri no Mago so hawt (aside from being a long-haired ice loli); she's voiced by Horie Yui.

I thought BRS was cool when it was just the art and a figure. Then I thought 'meh'.
Might still give it a shot, though, to be sure or be surprised

Currently on Chobits 13 and Railgun 7.
And so far, Railgun > Chobits, by quite some length. Not that Chobits is bad, it's great, and not that they're even that easily comparable, but there's something about Railgun
Speaking of Railgun, the op is so beautiful.
