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

Thanks man I’ll check those out.

Is hunter X hunter and one piece worth getting into?

One Piece is worth it, if you can handle the style of it. Have not watched Hunter x Hunter. But it will consume you time once you get into One Piece, since there is over 700 chapters and close to 600 episodes.

one piece art is very american cartoony style influenced…like groo.

Trigun and Samurai Champloo. Full Metal Panic if you like mechs. Tiger and Bunny is about Superhero celebrities.

Wat. I don’t really think that’s racist at all unless you’re REEEEEEAAAAAAAAAALLY stretching for it.

[devastator]

I’m really liking Suisei no Gargantia. Dat Bellows. The music was also really good in episode 3 so I looked up the composer and its Taro Iwashiro who did great work on Onimusha 2.

Ah, the memories. All the Onimusha’s had incredible intros.

Also I just read this on wikipedia: Gen Urobuchi explained on the official website that the message of the story is aimed towards those in their teens and 20s, who are either about to enter into society or recently have, and is meant to cheer them on and to encourage them that “going out into the world isn’t scary”. He also said that the feeling of this work will be different from others he’s been involved with.

Maybe we wont be getting mindfucked after all.

is that Dios-X in your avatar Aria?

she just called them the last of the rwanda gorillas. you dont need to stretch shit

[Minerva_SC]

Gorillas aren’t a race.

It would’ve been racist if they were, you know, actually black or something.

captain has heavily black features…darkest one on the team. come on man.

[angelpalm]

You bugging kid, it’s more a racist thing in the fact that there hardly any black people in anime to begin with. But this time wasn’t one of them. Gorilla comparison was simply because dudes were massive. Like your forehead.

[Spirit_Juice]

What angelpalm said. Guy didn’t look black at all outside of being mocha flavored looking. I don’t know about you, but when the word gorilla is used as an insult, it has to do with someone being some stupid musclehead, not black (or both). Unless the people in your area consist of nothing but large, bulky, unintelligent black men… and in that case, that most certainly suck. D:

[Aria]

Sasha aka potato girl should show up more in Shingeki.

Nope, feel free to talk about it as much as you want. As said before, while the rotoscoping could be much better, everything else (especially the setting) was well done from the 1st 2 episodes shown so far.

*The rotoscoping has it’s uncanon valley moments, specially when a person is talking and you can see their unnatural looking teeth. But the detail captured in body language and eye shifting more than makes up for that in my opinion. The overall tone in the animation style feels more real compared to traditional animating yet retains enough flavor of traditional animation to raise suspension of disbelieve and creates a aperture in the realism that’s inherently induced by rotoscoping. It could be better no doubt but I feel like it works in the context of the show, at least as far as the 2 episodes I’ve seen is concerned. My thoughts on episode 2 below.

[details=Spoiler]Really good episode, it’s furthering the plot points that was understated in the first episode. The main character pointing out the urban decay and how the mountains surrounding the town is certainly interesting. Those two points in particular capsulating his inner feelings of hindrance, isolation, and the potentially slow degradation of his idealisms and purity. Another interesting note for me is his reference of sin and how the red headed girl will eventually play apart in his “fall from grace”. The red haired girl in general seem to be a rather interesting character.

Her defiance of the norm seem to be parralel to the main character though she carries a noticeably more aggressive streak in place of the main characters timidity. I wonder what role she will play in making the main characters “evil flower bloom” and how far in “bloom” is her own flower. Why has she tooken a interest in him and what is the basis of her wanting to form a contract with him. Is she solely doing it to eradicate the purity of the main character while playing the She-Devil role or is her reasoning far less sinister and more ambivalent. Either way I’m sure her constitution will play a far bigger part in everything than Saeki.

Also I’m really interested in what role the main characters father will ultimately play. The forshading of his mothers words (you’re just like your father) and his father seemingly knowing words stemming from his own pubescent hardships. [/details]

Regarding this weeks episode + your spoiler

Spoiler

It looks what Nakamura wants is company (as he seems to be a “deviant” like her)…and she’s doing it in the most disturbing way possible. Shoutouts to Kasuga not being able to do anything while she stripped him off and changed his clothes and still standing up to her when she was accused by the class. I think there’s more to her than being as such, so hopefully the later episodes will clear up on her motives.

is that Dios-X in your avatar Aria?

No, that’s Shinya Arino from Game Center CX. He wears this getup during the show’s 100th episode which had him play through Parappa the Rapper.

[Doritos_and_Sprite]

Well Kodomo no Jikan finally ended.
I could sit here and tell you about what a ride it’s been and how I’m not sure if stayed just to see some loli dicking or not
but the point is…

Spoiler

They fucked

Well atleast tried

[SWBeta]

Yo, I can’t get over that Shingeki no Kyojin intro. It’s like the most epic shit I’ve seen. At least when it comes to anime intros. The music is like 95% of the epic, though.

If I was a faggot who would liken hype levels to DBZ power levels, I would say at 0:41 seconds is when the scouter explodes from the power level being too high.

Speaking of faggots, change your avatar, Spirit Juice.

@maxx that gorilla scene is kinda reaching a bit, but that was a gdlk episode nonetheless. That second season of FMP was too boss. You can’t quit that shit off of one scene.

[Kromo]

Hey, so there is this big fleet of pirates…
Yeah, I saw them like 20 minutes ago with my superior optics
So…it is every pirate in the region, so I figure we should wait until they are close enough to…
You know I could just go over there and wipe them out, like, really easily
Wait wait wait…hear me out…you shine a light on them while we shoot at them with our horribly inaccurate cannons
Really? Cause it would take me like…30 seconds to fly over there right now
No, no no…when its dark out, we’ll turn off all the lights and it will be too dark for them to board our flotilla
Well what about their leader? Can I at least kill their leader so they don’t reorganize after their humiliating defeat?
No, even if we kill all of them in a matter of moments,it won’t solve anything or make us the global super power. What will we do if more show up and die fruitlessly before your awesome weaponry?
…
Ok…its because I love lesbian pirates.
…
She’s got a rocket surfing lobster robot!

[SWBeta]

I’m not usually one for stupid meme pics, but this shit had me rolling.

[Spirit_Juice]

^That would only be scary if they were black.
