Anime & Manga Thread v.5 FAQ/IRC: See OP. Welcome to 2017

They still seem pretty tame in comparison to the manga, imo.

Well yeah they won’t be able to show people getting pulled limb from limb like in the manga. It seemed though in the early episodes they’d do still frames and then cut away from someone that’s about to get chomped. In the last few episodes [details=Spoiler] we’ve seen people smashed into paste, have their upper body ground off on a tree, and get bitten in half. All clearly on screen.[/details]

Kimi no Iru MAchi…is this pacing the same in the manga? shit is just time skipping like a motha!

Even if she tried, we all know he’d shoot her down and call her a creep. The whole point of the series is supposed to be her being a horrible person and watching her be miserable.

Making Oreimo be about step-siblings would be even more pointless than the show already was.

Trying to get a good price on Persona 4 The Animation volumes 1-3, english dubbed. Tried Amazon but £20/volume is a bit steep for me…
Anyone got any suggestions? What sucks is that the all the JP volumes together are like €25 on ebay, with eng subs.

Also finished watching Evangelion recently, have to get around to watching the 3 movies. Good shit until the last few episodes (saw End of Evangelion also). Shinji’s a bitch throughout though. <_>

I feel sorry for her though…eventually I hope things aren’t always shitty.

Just for through 2 episodes of oreimo…the premise is disturbing enough but outside the incest tones the show is pretty good.

Checked out Watamote but the point of the show got lost on me. It’s like I know there’s no need to watch any more because each episode will be more or less the same as the last. It has its’ moments though

Weird because my fave series overall is probably School Rumble which was similar in that the running gag literally never shifted. Suppose it still had a lot more character and plot diversity

I’d imagine Watamote will end with her finally getting her shit together. Or at least put her life in the right direction.

Awww, Watamote 9. Love the interactions between her and her brother.

Also, I can pretty safely guess what chapter the anime will end on. It’s not exactly a series with closure.

As long as it concludes with her getting things in gear and NO INCEST then I’m all good.

watamote makes me depressed as fuck :frowning:

Am I the only one here who isn’t watching Watamote?!

Or they go the limp-kid shounen route and she goes back to the way she was after having a typical moral self-actualization thought that she “just needs to be herself”, or “you can’t change who you are; accept yourself”, or some other mentality that reverses all your attempts to become a new person.

What if she just finds people who accept her…even losers can have friends.

I also don’t think she’s a bad person she’s just very misguided and has a unusual sense of judgement.

I’m not. Tried first episode, it was pathetic and boring. Rather watch Blood Lad instead.

BLASPHEMY!!!

Anyone recommend me similar anime to watamote and oreimo?

\

Its makes my blood boil how blood lad is ending next week. It was the most entertaining anime this season

The blood lad manga turned pretty boring to me after awhile. It had it’s moments though.

Really? That quick?

Blood Lad’s pretty good, it doesn’t take itself seriously which makes it a fun watch.

Also: Not sure if I mentioned it, but claymore’s new chapter is out, and it’s the best one in a looong time.

Blood Lad anime is incredibly entertaining.

Unrelatedly, I randomly started watching baka test a while back because it was on hulu. it’s not good.

The last final episodes of Oreimo had somehow escaped my noticed. I gave them a watch…
[spoiler=]I never had an ending to a series completely fuck it up for me like this one did. It’s bad enough it went in the direction I hoped it won’t with Kyousuke hooking up with Kirino but to burn every bridge you had just to go back to square one was beyond fucking stupid. It’s all the worse is that almost everyone accepted it. Manami only reaction that made any damn sense. The beatdown she laid on Kirino is the only enjoyment I got out this ending. What a fucking pointless series[/spoiler]
