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

reading this thread feels like studying for an art history test

IMO you have heard incorrectly regarding the quality of Sankarea. It’s not particularly good and despite being fairly short there’s a lot of filler-ish material.

Think it clocks in at around 50 minutes. Also…

Protip: do not watch the live action Higurashi movies.

Unbreakable Machine-Doll

Spoiler

Not really much of a spoiler as I’m having a hard time coming up with a series that gave away less (relevant) information in its first episode than UMD does. Texhnolyze…maybe but only just barely. I’ve got character names and the fact that science and magic are apparently all buddy buddy unlike in Index/Railgun and I got that there’s a school that teaches people about this sort of stuff. That’s more or less it. That said the art/animation is pretty nice and despite giving off a weird Pokemon-vibe I’m probably going to give this a few more episodes.

I think you are just mad cause I dont read mangas, nor do I care for them. If other people do thats cool, I rather just watch anime and not let my self get let down by reading something then watching it

What’s the list of new shows this season?

Witchblade :coffee:

witch blade was kinda wack tho but ive seen countless animes and i cant remember any milfs at the moment

Attack on Titan 50 - Manga:

Spoiler

Hannes died, it was soooooooooooo obvious.

Also, Eren can now control Titans.

So, I’m only 4 minutes into Walkure Romance, but it is pretty promising. I mean, 1. Its got cute girls as knights, which basically means their school uniforms have epaulettes. 2. There are multiple panty shots in the intro. 3. The h-mangas are practically writing themselves, I mean, drill haired blond jousting? That just screams “please defeat me in battle and sexually humiliate me with a lance”.

man I knew that would happen sooner or later after the fight with the female titan

Welp, downloading Blazblue. Let’s see whether this is a train wreck or not in a few minutes.

Gundam Build Fighters - Hmm…I kind of like the original GunPla OAV better but this is still pretty solid. With Gundam AGE it seems that Bandai-Sunrise wants to target a younger demographic with the Gundam franchise and GunPla is a much better way to do that. Obviously, don’t expect anything serious with this series but if you’re a fan of the franchise and model kits than Build Fighters is worth watching just for the concept alone. If anything like this existed in real life I think I would probably be hesitant in participating because it does damage the actual model and that shit is hella expensive. lol

I’ll save you the trouble.

Too late, skimmed through the episode and it’s terrible. lol

The animation quality is ass for current gen and the fight choreography is atrocious. It looks like it’s starting off with CT’s storyline so gotta trudge through that terrible time paradox arc, not like BB had a good storyline to begin with.

I always wanted a GG anime since the story and characters are much more interesting than other Arksys works but if this is the kind of quality we’re going to get than it’s better off that never happens.

15 seconds of research reveals that it’s based on an h-game, so…

Yep, ive seen that one, a pretty decent movie. There were shit tons of movies/series with main adult characters and they were great. Ninja Scrolls, Blood Reign: curse of the Yoma, Vampire Hunter D, Fist of Northstar, Berserk, Cyber City Eodes, ect…

fate zero mostly has adults, but if you didnt watch fate/stay night it might be a little confusing, though the action and fights are good. Fate zeros Rider character was my fav, best parts when he was talking about bill clinton, and pants

City Hunter wasn’t a movie. It’s a fucking classic of a series that spanned several seasons, movies, and oav’s. The casual audience will mostly know it for the Jackie Chan movie though. City Hunter also got a sequel manga, which was adapted to an anime later on, called Angel Heart.

Nah, i’ll pass on that one, i skimmed through it and it didnt catch me, also im not really into the artstyle of today anime unless the story and animation made up for it . I like old school artstyle and gory stuffs.

oh, i got mixed up with the movie called Wicked City or Demon City.

Hey, to me, it looks like he’s just tossing a valet the ice keys to his ice car.
