holyshit ma gundams amazing! :O

I dunno. See, Noriko was a sympathetic character right from the start of Gunbuster, and then the writers put her through hell, and the viewer went through it with her. But Nono is just annoying (and possibly brain damaged), and the story is all over the place, and I don't feel any reason to care about her. Diebuster also lacks the tension of the Noriko/Kasumi dynamic. It just feels shallow in comparison, more like a prototype of Gurren Lagann.

Evangelion is awesome in its own way. Gunbuster, sadly, was never anywhere near as popular or influential. I actually want Gainax to leave it alone and not tarnish my memories any more ;_;

I LIKE

More like, Persona 3 & 4 are the ultimate love 'em whillst secretly hating 'em games. Heavily flawed, yet they're still the most addictive games ever made.

If you haven't, you should seriously pick-up P4 while it's still selling new for a tenner and also get P3: FES. You won't regret it.


That topic you speak of: it looks like it's now been deleted. I found it strange that it wasn't deleted straight away, it containing lots of negative forum stuff.

To answer your question, I'd prefer AUKN just to have more intelligent lifeforms. JamesX and otaku-san don't qualify.

Oh, I know what turtling is :D

No, I don't do that. I hardly ever use electricity. Besides, doesn't a good c.HK take care of electricity spammers? I really don't understand how people can enjoy playing with those kind of "tactics", nor how the shoto Fireball/Dragon Punch spammers don't get bored after five minutes.

Whatchoo talking 'bout, Willis?

Nice Cammy pic. I wonder if there exists any image of her in which she's not showing her arse. I sure hope not.

Yeah, I drew it, but now I kind of regret uploading it. Every time I see it I find another fault.
I think I have to redraw it.
Thanks, though.

I finished Xam'd after I left you that comment.
I mustn't have payed much attention during the second half of the series, because only parts made sense, and so I like the first half better.
Probably need to re-watch it. Actually, I think the only thing I didn't really understand was the whole Quickening Chamber business. So...a major plot point.

And now I've picked up Eureka Seven again and can't help but notice all the similarities.

You never knew your parents, met a fox one night on the street, became one of the fox and swore to become accepted by normal society?

When I was younger, it annoyed me how people would put on a fake smile and say, "You're an intelligent young man." I would've rather not had people be dishonest with me and say the 'correct' thing. False flattery is insulting. I can't say I would've rather been insulted for my stupidity but I would've preferred silence.

It's good to hear I didn't waste my time following Xam'd until the end. I'll leave it unfinished unless Manga snatch the license from The Buzz and sell the series in cheap 2-3 disc sets in the future. I really, really hate it when animes end as confusingly as possible in order to trick the Evangelion massive into thinking confusing as fuck = depth. I try to stay away from those sort of series if possible.

I dropped Casshern way back. It never seemed to be going anywhere, with a thin plot getting stretched to fit into a 20+ episode series. The gloomy feel appealed to me but I was unable to ever get into it because of the pacing. Does it get better towards the end or stay pretty much the same?

Also, another question: Have you read a lot of single volume manga stories? I've read a couple recently (Goth and Socrates in Love) and liked 'em a lot. I've ordered Voices of a Distant Star and want to get more. It's cheaper than buying endless series and more enjoyable than sitting through one story for 40 volumes.
