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

Kinda lookin forward to Mirrai Nikki, can’t wait to unleash my unbridled hate on Shana, more A!MG is always good, Lupin is always good, and then there’s that Boku wa blah blah blah show.

Not bad.

Why did you spoil it for? Have you not read the comic? Its only like a few issues. Go read it.

Edit: Where are they at? And I am assuming raw.

Err I just put it in spoilers in case no one read the manga ver. >_>;;;;
Check Tokyotosho.info for the RAW.

Watching it on youtube, no point in d/l the raw. Shit is siiiiiick.

Just wish they made Alucard use a proper Kilij instead of a broadsword.

Why is Ikuhara so…thin? He could probably pass for a woman if he weren’t nearly a dinosaur in age.

feng wei
gato
wesker
yun

these characters all have very similar moves divided among them.
are they ripping off a character from a manga somewhere i dont know about?

It’s called Chinese martial arts lol

Are you talking about the palm thrust thing in particular or something? There might have been some character that used it, but I doubt they are all referencing it. It’s way more likely that they are just all using kung fu because they are either Chinese, or they just made them(wesker) that way. You’re probably reading into it way more than necessary. If it was like the rapid punches(JoJo) or the pressure point stuff(HnK) then possibly, but I doubt it’s anything like that for those characters.

So another one of my Borders is having a closing sale so I decided to get the first two Gunslinger Girl omnibus books and it’s so good. Pretty heartwrenching. :shake:

Yeah Borders is completely dead now, every remaining store is closing.

It finally came! Yes!

patiently waits for engsubs

I will say that the reason why Borders is closing is because of people like me who just grab a book and just read it in the store itself instead of actually buying it. I remember reading Fight Club, to all 40+ volumes of Dragon Ball in one of my Borders since I was bored and had nothing else to do. (Not in one setting of course).

Anyway I wonder how Barnes & Noble will prevent themselves from going out of business. Which I hope not since my nearest B&N is the only bookstore that’s left after the only two Borders within my vicinity are closing, also since there’s also manga I have yet to purchase lol.

Just watched both Evangelion movies for the first time…pretty badass except for the wierd “whoops, your tits fell into my hands when we both tripped” situations and shit like that. Kinda ruined it…

Angels were badass though.

I just remembered, Del Rey hasn’t done SHIT with anything Kara no Kyoukai related, despite obtaining the license for the novels about 2 years ago. What gives? :shake:

Really now?

Natsume Yuujinchou San #4

Spoiler

Perhaps one of the better episodes of this season; this one features Natsume and friends going on a trip to a museum, which is in the area where he lived as a youngster. Poor dude had such a rough childhood; from moving from one family to the next to getting mistreated by the other kids and insinuating that he’s a liar when he talks about the youkai. Kinda nice of him to go back to the youkai whom wanted to scare him every time and he even recognized her scent well.

Forbidden.

If Kenshiro used his Hakuto Shinken on Star Platinum, would that kill Jotaru?

Links fixed.

Mawaru Penguindrum 4

Spoiler

Well this episode was full of fabulous. :rofl: Ringo’s imagination has gone beyond the realms of sanity (and her jealousy of Yuri taking her lover away) and there’s tons of hilarious moments in this episode (poor Shoma). However, that came to an end after that drop from the electronic stairs for one of Kanba’s old girlfriends. Though it was written in the diary, I doubt Ringo would do something which has almost nothing to do with Tabuki. Unless I looked at this the wrong way.

I hate it when companies sit on a license and don’t do anything. I’m looking at you KyoAni. Give us some FMP or sell the damn license.

I am almost certain that it’s more because of amazon and other online retailers than people like you and me.

I remember hearing a rumor that he cosplayed as Sailor Mars.

And now pics. Kill me. That is creepy as hell.
