Anime & Manga Thread v.4 FAQ/IRC: See OP. Thread over. Move onto v.5

So my primary source for downloads pretty much got taken down. Can’t complete my folder for Nisem, Guilty Crown and Persona now :frowning:

It’s not that I can’t watch any more, I just won’t have complete 720p folders.

Read the manga, much, much faster.

Granted there’s no more megaupload, and AT refuses to use Fileserve and Filesonic for obvious reasons, there still upload their 720p/1080p anime to lesser options[/details]

…oh. I read the thread title and assumed it was related to Natsume. Oops.

Look into Technolyze afterwards, done by the same guy.

Looked there

Spoiler

Their shit is gone too, for whatever I was looking for anyway. I used to use anime-sharing, and the one dude who uploads everything lost like 1700 videos. Fileserve, Uploadstation, Filesonic AND filejungle. I’m torrenting now.

New OP… iffy boring boring boing boing

Yuki, that pitiful kid… “I want help.” … BLUSHES … spoiled kid!

Can’t get rid of Yuno, Yuki. You need her undoubtedly. This phone server crud is probably going to stall the show for another 3-5 episodes.

The ED sounds a little strange. It reminds me of OP1, but it’s just more passive, without losing the same level of energy of Kuusou.[/details]

That’s the face I wanted to see.

Persona 2

[details=Spoiler]For about 3 minutes, I thought that other dimension (if it has a name) was a place where people went if they died. I take it we’re going to establish Satonaka’s persona next episode. Speaking of, why is she the only girl wearing a sports jacket whereas everyone else is wearing that ugly blazer?

She just wears a jacket over her outfit. I don’t really see how the regular blazer is ugly though.

[details=Spoiler]It may just be something they did to the game to represent a character that is actually interested in sports. In Persona 3, there was this character called Kazushi, who wore the sports outfit all the time, so I suppose this time they tried to put it onto a female a character instead.

And of course, they wouldn’t change Chie’s appearance for the anime. Everyone would hate that.

I don’t think the Jacket is official of the school, though, since there’s this other Jacket that has the initials Y H that is also used by some characters.[/details]

All I’m watching is Nisemonogatari.

Everything else is rather meh.

Also I want a Perona ghost <3

In the show, they got big bright white stitching all over it…

P4A 3

[details=Spoiler]Ugh, how many more “persona developing” episodes? "AH YOU’RE NOT ME! YOU’RE NOTHING LIKE ME! AHHHH!

Okay, you are me. ding “You’ve got a new card!”

Who’s that guy and chick in the limo at the beginning of the episode? Are they supposed to be some imagery for Narukami’s mind? Where did this multiple persona crap come from and how did he know to summon jack o lantern of all other things?[/details]

Spoiler

lol, you have quite a few more to see, get use to it, lol.

In the game, it’s explained. I don’t think it will be a spoiler to explain you what they are, since in the game you are told at the very beginning.

Spoiler

He can only see them because his power is different than the rest. Since his Arcana is The Fool, the wild card, he has the ability to summon as many Personas as he desires. Igor’s purpose in the game is to fuse Personas to form stronger ones, whilst Margaret is there as his assistant.

I was referring to both Nyanko and Poyo (hence the plural) so yeah, you’re still right. :lol:

Gintama 243

Spoiler

Yet another story featuring manga; and this one includes everyone’s favorite inmate, Shachi! Well, probably not everyone’s favorite, but that was a good excuse to have him tag along with Gintoki and show up to the Shuiesha staff (to be specific, depressed editor Vanguard) to exhibit their latest manga of prison romance, featuring muscular women and giant shoulder pads. Large emphasis on that last part. Even when both Gintoki and Shachi switch places regarding art and story…not much actually happened except ripping off Death Note, throwing in cheap romance tropes, messages from everyone at Gintoki’s places and even LARGER shoulderpads. We even get an extra treat of having this amazing manga animated and wonderfully drawn in MS Paint.

Next week though, we’re finally going to another serious arc. Been a while since we seen one centered on the Shisengumi.

If you like Blade Runner check out Ghost in the Shell (any of them). You’ll probably really like them.

fffffuuuuu lol

If you want to DDL, why not use IRC?

I saw a preview for a movie, it’s a medieval setting and it’s Appleseed-style cg, but handdrawn for close-ups? Anyone know the name of it?

Berserk?

I’m drawing blanks except for Berserk as well. Here’s a youtube for a quick refresher.

As for the DDL talk, I use a mixture of:
IRC, torrents (last alternative for me really lol, although tokyotosho is good for getting a heads up on if and when things are out) and
http://www.animetake.com/
http://www.animefansftw.com/
http://lolipower.org/ (goto the anime tab and/or the 72h tab up top for the episodes)
http://www.boontan.net/ (this site you need to sign up, but it’s free and only takes like 30 secs anyway. It also doesn’t force you to do a whole bunch of menial shit either like post on their forums or w/e)

Another ep3

show of the season for me, loving every second of this anime and not what i was expecting at all. This episode was godlike.

Started watching Nichijou yesterday. Great show. No idea why I didn’t watch it before.
