Finish Kids on the Slope. Jazz makes everything better.

Going to try to finish GTO too. I'm guessing the sub is the way to go?

I also checked out the first episode of LOGH.  :zonk:

I'd watch the dub of GTO just to see the same three people doing every voice. It's quite funny in its own way.

Just blew through the first 8 episodes of Monster.

New third favorite anime acquired.
Just wait until you get to the end. It's quite the journey, but it's worth it.

Yeah, I'm going to have to agree with JO. The dub somehow makes it funnier.

I like both versions, myself. The sub has voice acting that's pretty much as legit as Japanese voice-acting can be (at least coming from someone who doesn't speak the language), whereas the dub is entertaining in a so bad its funny sort of way. Either way, its still one of my personal favorite anime ever.

I'd watch the Great Teacher Onizuka anime if I could find it easily. But my library doesn't have the dvd's and I would only buy them if I could get the complete series for a relatively cheap price. Is it available for streaming legally anywhere?

Guys, I think Valvrave might be the funniest anime of the last few years.

I watched the first 20 minutes of Redline last night, and Foggle was right, its excellent stuff! :joy:

Unfortunately I was also feeling really sick at the time, so I had to stop watching and go to sleep early. I'm definitely going to try and finish the rest of the movie today, though. ;)

I knew you'd like it! :joy: :joy:

Since you're already past the first race scene, I will warn you that the next part can be somewhat slow (still great, though), but the entire second half of the movie is non-stop awesome.

Just finished From the New World, great show, with some really stellar world-building and characterization. The society the main characters lived in was messed-up and oppressive (got caught cheating in a game? Time for you to be purged, young man!), but as the series progressed we learn how it turned out that way and that the rulers of the society weren't simply tyrants because they enjoyed it. Character-wise, I found Yakomaru to be the most interesting character. Definitely was one of the most well-crafted antagonists I've seen in an anime. A liar and a mass-murderer he may have been, but once the true reason behind his atrocities became clear it was hard not to sympathize at least a little bit with the guy.

That said, now I really could use something fun and uplifting.

Well, I can establish that anybody who does not watch Redline is pretty uncool.

Micki!

Yes, I can pretty much say also, that Redline IS SOME OF THE COOLEST FREAKING ANIMATION that I've ever seen..!

I can see why some would not enjoy watching this, I can also see that such people don't absolutely adore incredible animation  :whuh:

Dr. Ensatsu-ken

Aside from the animation being unbelievably over the top and downright gorgeous to look at, its also entertaining as hell, and has some pretty entertaining dialogue (at least in the English dub) if that interests anyone at all. :thumbup:

Also I'm just curious, Foggle, but as far as anime movies go, have you watched Summer Wars yet? I wasn't sure.

Well, I highly recommend it. Its the best Digimon movie ever made without actually having any ties to the Digimon franchise whatsoever! ;)
