It's one of the main attractions for me, a series without an annoying girl!!! (Lucy also amuses me so much) but I guess you probably already know that ^__^ |
 |
| started watching baccano and loveless. baccano is a little disjointed, but ok ...still not sure about loveless... the whole uke shota thing just doesn't do it for me. |
| devilbunnies are comming! soon we will be leigon!! |
| I loved Baccano but I also love anything on a train. I am watching Murder Princess. It'll be over fast cause there is only 6 episodes. |
 |
| KATANAGATARI. Love it! |

AccipiterF1 said: KATANAGATARI. Love it! Well, the character design is certainly....special the main character would easily win the 'silliest hairstyle ever' award.XD But the witty dialogue and the weird love story definitely shows that it's based on a story by the Bakemonogatari creator. I'm definitely looking forward to more! |
 |
| The character interaction and dialog in Katanagatari was a lot of fun. I also enjoyed the fact that... |

 May the DESU be with you! Always! |
| I'm still enjoying PoT. And even though I like the main character, he is an arrogant little snot that I just wanna smack sometimes. >.< Fuji-kun, however, remains pure ♥♥♥ for me!! |
| I liked Murder Princess too, I was sad to see it end. I always hopped more would be made as well. I ended up reading the manga as well for it. |
 |
| Finally watched ep 1 of Dance in the Vampire Bund... it was kinda painful >_> I'll keep watching for now, since I picked it up only for Akira anyway... hopefully he'll be worth it lol (yes I'm shallow, deal. haha) |
|
| Yeah... myth... don't judge by the first episode. It gets a lil' better... promise. |
| Just started watching Princess Tutu, i needed a change of pace after all the Slayers silliness .:) The 'magical girl' genre isn't exactly my favourite but the plot looks interesting enough for now. And i like ballet. And shows that use funny German names.XD |
| |
| Tutu was really good, and the music was great as well. I am trying to finish Seitokai no Ichizon... its really torturous. Its not that its horrible in a this anime sucks so much kind of way, but it is so uninteresting and boring that watching it is like a job. But I hate dropping things, I even feel bad about the one thing I did drop and still plan to finish even that. Only 2 more episodes to go, I can do it! |

I admire your patience. I've become pretty radical at dropping series which annoy me over the years. Or maybe i just get easier annoyed now?XD I also drop without ounce of remorse ^^ But in some cases, most notably Naruto and Reborn I just fast-forward through the ep.... reborn ep 169 I finished in just under 2 minutes.... >_> (actually Naruto started fillers again so instead of ff I put in hold and just going to skip them until it's back to Sasuke.. er I mean the manga) |
|
| I really just hate not finishing something. I havent seen something bad enough for me to drop and never want to see the end of. Besides if something is bad I want to finish it so I can roast it in a review. Thats my burning motivation to get through things that suck. Like every yaoi program I have watched. |
|
| I not only drop, but also put stuff on hold like crazy. It's a habit picked up back when I was a poor high school/college student and had to actually buy or rent whatever few episodes I could find. |

Naruto has entered the stage where i actually enjoy the fillers more than the rest, sadly enough. I sometimes do the fast-forwarding with manga, especially Bleach...anime just gets dropped mercilessly. |

I don't have the patience for the lame shounen jump stuff and most of the characters annoy me.... I'd just drop it but I like Sasuke and Hibari too much... *sigh* |

| Hmmm....Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, Full Metal Panic, Sora no Woto, GTO, and Railgun. |
| What if the Hokey Pokey is what it is all about? |
sbyrstall said: Welcome sbyrstall :-)Hmmm....Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood, Full Metal Panic, Sora no Woto, GTO, and Railgun. I also just recently finished GTO, I won't go into detail with my thoughts on it now .. but it'll be fun to hear your thoughts on it when finished, to compare with mine ;-) I’m currently watching the Rumiko Takahashi Anthology. Being such a fan of Ranma & Maison Ikkoku, I’m wondering what took me so long to see this collection of her short stories. I’m through the first 5 (out of 13) and so far they’re great! Just as engaging, quirky & fun as her longer series’ are :-) |

| Watched the first ep. of School Rumble and boy, is that show stupid! Slayers looks sophisticated in comparison... Which doesn't mean i hated it - i like my silly stuff - still, i think i'm gonna watch this one in very small doses...XD |

| Watched the first three episodes of Rin: Daughters of Mnemosyne last night. Man! Talk about fuh-REAKY stuff! |
| May the DESU be with you! Always! |
| philly, mnemosyne was a little too freaky/gory for me i'm part way through watching fantastic children (yes jg, yet another entry in my "currently watching" list). so far its pretty groovy. the first few eps were a little confusing, but its making a bit more sence now... i need that to recover from the "wtf?" factor of some of the stuff i've seen recently. |
| devilbunnies are comming! soon we will be leigon!! |
Invisigoth said: philly, mnemosyne was a little too freaky/gory for me Compared to Elfen Lied, Mnemosyne is rather tame in the gore department, but the freak factor is seriously off the charts. I guess that's why it fascinated me as much as it did! ^_^ |
| May the DESU be with you! Always! |
| I restarted Ichigo Mashimoro today. I originally started it a while ago but didnt really like the episode I saw so dropped it. Now I am back. I dont seem to have the concentration for anything really complicated at the moment so these slice of life uncomplicated ones suit me down to the ground. I also caught up with Kimi Ni Todoke, but ep 16 ws more like a flashback so it didnt do anything for me. |
| May the Uguu be with you. |

|
| I agree ep 16 was a waste (especially in a 24ep series, seriously did you guys need a vacation week?) ep 17 was very good. About half way through Honey and Clover and I am not sure if I am liking it or beginning to get bored with it. The whole Hagu thing has me way puzzled. |
| Episode 16 of Kimi pissed me off so much. I would like to form a pitchfork and torches crusade to end the scourge of the recap episode forever from the earth. Honestly in this day and age of DVR, internet streaming there is no reason at all for recap episodes. And certainly not in a 24 episode series. Grr. @nixops Ichigo Mashimaro is so wonderful! I just love it and the way Miu is always getting smacked down is so hilarious. |

Honey and Clover left me with a pretty similar thought, but I stuck it through and it was a very good watch although perseverence is needed and I did not feel like any answers were forthcoming about Hagu. |

| Well, with my pc currently out of commission, and thanks to a wonderful friend's generosity, I am currently rewatching Kanon (2006). I have completely forgotten all the reasons I fell in love with this series, mostly Yuuichi. I'm also amazed at how much I have forgotten. It was almost like watching it for the first time, all over again. I just finished Mai's arc. I had completely forgotten about 90% of that arc. It was a joy to watch it again. And previously, as the first time, Makoto's arc made me cry like a baby. Next arc up is for my favorite Kanon girl, Shiori. I'm excited to watch it again... and will have tissues ready. :) ::hugs J_Dude:: |
| You're certainly welcome Chelle :-) I just hope your PC issues get sorted out soon, so you can get back to hangin' out online when you're not at work & the Library is closed ;-) as far as Kanon, I hope you thoroughly enjoy it... and with the DVD's on your shelf .. if you're anything like me, you'll end up re-watching it ((hang on, lemme check my list)) like 7 times!! :-P |

| Currently watching a bootleg DVD of Hataraki Man. It's set at a culture/tabloid magazine in Tokyo and follows the staff as they deal with each other and face unexpected challenges in putting together each issue. Any anime that's as exclusively about adults as this one is a rare find, for sure, and each episode is surprisingly poignant and funny. The only drawback so far is that the English subitltes on the DVD (imported from Malaysia) are atrocious and make the most dialog-intensive scenes (of which there are many) borderline incomprehensible. We've had some luck getting well-translated DVDs from this vendor in the past but this has happened before and I think this is where I draw the line and look into other options. Looking forward to watching the rest of the series, but wish that this wasn't an issue. |

JELEINEN said: The thing with School Rumble is that a few episodes in, the secondary characters basically take over and it turns awesome. I'm at ep. 5 now and it's still completely stupid. But that's fine since 'stupid' is the healthiest way for me to digest High School romance. And i think i like the Aikido team captain, pffff...XD |

| kuroraka sed: "I'm at ep. 5 now and it's still completely stupid." school rumble is a riot when you watch it with a group. the first time i saw it was at one of the anime screenings at a club. |
