The first time I was introduced to anime was by my best friend, a Chinese. She showed me an episode of Prétear. I found the animation interesting but that was about it. I wasn't familiar with the Internet as such and downloading was a far cry.
When I came back to my country in 2005, while channel surfing, I came across Animax, and it was half dubbed in the local language and half dubbed in English. I used to think they were like cartoons, so I just ignored it pretty much.
Right now, I would kill anyone for even trying to compare anime to cartoons!!
One night, when I had nothing of interest to watch, I put on that channel. Inu Yasha was being aired. For the heck of it, I started watching it. And it had me glued. I realised that it wasn't for teeny kids. It actually had a somewhat complex storyline.
From then on, I tried to catch a new series that would be aired on Animax. And gradually, being an amateur artist, I got engrossed into its artwork and the different plots and different genres.
Then came the unlimited internet access! Enlightenment!
Well, okay, that was after I missed an episode and since I was so hooked on to it, I decided to download the episode or try to watch it online. And when I realised the amount of anime on the servers, well, you can imagine.. ;)
Wooooooooooooohoooooooooooooooo!!!!
;))
My preferences:
....... Slice of Life............ Ha-ha humour...........
........... Psychological............................ Action............
....Romance.................... Sci-Fi (this, my list says! I was surprised!)............
I fail to see how likening a high male pitched voice to the practice of castrating choirboys, in order to retain their voices before puberty, is in any way racist. I am sitting here racking my brain to see how you could, in any way, associate that with race, ethnicity, or nationality at all.
I see everyone is having an orgasm on fate zero. Must be an awesome show. Damnit i can't wait. I really have to download this and shakugan no shana S3.
those screen pics looked so crisp with such gorgeous and intricate quality.
OMG.ZOMG. ohmy god. We BOTH predictedthe end and we were correct. lmao
Probs a second season now since they said " see you next time"
I cant get enough of the music or shining saotome.
XDDD
Heyyy~
I know right??! The mysterious dove appears in her dream (which was really awkward and i found it real cheesy watching) which then leads her to Tokiya? ahaha!
The argument was like real fast, but i guess it wont be any point/no time to drag on the fight, cuz in the end they would still have to work together for the benefit that they will all get. Ren was like the bitchy one and was the one who was a leader kinda thing. Everyone was upset but the calmest were Natsuki and Hirijikawa. Syo/shou was still angus how everything" wrapped up, just like that??!" and he did make the most important point. “But Hey! Anime gotta go fast” says the director of this thing.
and yea, just some how all 6 + join in Tomo find exactly where they are as if they stalking and planning this in the first place with PERFECT timing meeting. Thats pure skill.
Daaaym, the school has some pretty beast equipment. With the whole light effect and the screen projecting going on and getting the air balloon thing ( i dont know whats it called) up and going.
I think in the end Nanami will end up writing a song or they will just keep the ones they have now and perform because if they just end the anime with the “God of composing” writing the songs up for them audience will go monkeys. I would think, “why the F*k did I just watch this when the protagonist didn’t get the debut. “ unless that DOeS happen then a season 2 will come out. But in the end maybe something like ‘ ohhh, I was just testing your determination and its crucial to take risks in the idol world’ or sum random stuff like that. Idk. Lulull.
Heyy! Soz, didnt really have enough time to reply your message just get. But im happy that you replayed :)
I just love reading the discussion boards and its funny how most of us all attack one character and we're all like going "NOOO" at one specific moment in the episode and we're all complaining about it. hahalululz.
In episode 9 where all the boys wanted Haruka to be their partners,and when Hirijikawa wrote a formal letter to Haruka made me LOL and i was going " OMG, that is SOO him!" with a XD face.
You know how you said that you wished that Haruka would then 'bump' into Hirijikawa in the hallway afterwards so there would be more development? Haha, the ONLY person Haruka EVER meets is Tokiya. Just her and her awkward random meetings with Tokiya. >x<
Lolz, it could be a failure of a scriptwriter who changes her mind about the characters personality. Or it just could be like you said fan service to please us. But that goes more for me cause most of the things that HAruka says is just ZOMG what???. And i personally think that some stuff that the boys say is just soooo cheesy.
