Anime & Manga Thread v.6.0 Crunchyroll Sucks Now, Come Back Funimation! Come Back!

Goblin Slayer turned out to be pretty decent. The initial shock value scene was over the top, but really it’s just there to establish the setting.

It doesn’t go on the must recommend to friends list, but I enjoyed my time watching it.

Like I said before, I do read it and I do like it, just more so for the MCs ingenuity

Alita Battle Angel was Great! I’d give it a 9 out of 10.

And this is coming from someone who saw the Anime years ago and HATED it. I thought it was depressing as hell. The first time i saw Alita in theaters was curiosity due to the strong word of mouth but, i was expecting to hate it. Nope.

The movie was fuggin’ Fantastic! The actress they got to play her was endearing and cute as hell also. Total waifu material.

Edit: Also the CGI was pretty good.

My copy of Captain Harolock the Classic Collection vol. 2 arrived last week. Vol. 3 dropped a few days ago so I’ll probably pick that up when I get paid.

Started watching The Rising of the Shield Hero. The first episode really reminded me of the stuff going on with Vic Mignogna and Funimation right now. Still, a fantasy series I’m enjoying quite a bit.

Saw Alita Battle Angel for the 3rd time in theaters. Worth it! So fucking good! :heart:

And i saw the original anime years ago and HATED it so much. I thought that out of all the animes they could have adapted, they were idiots to greenlight this shit. That James Cameron was out of his damn mind.

Wow. I was 100.00% Proven Wrong. Actually, i’ll say this already ranks up with 2019’s Best movies.

It’s probably more accurate to say they adapted the manga since the anime is just a 2 episode OVA, and the movie covers stuff that isn’t even in it but IS in the manga.

I still haven’t seen edge of tomarrow but only hear good things

+1 for thinking Alita was super solid. It looked fucking stupid in the commercials and other promotional material they had for it but a lot of people who I talk anime with and a lot of people I follow on twitter who are in the anime community (see work for dubbing companies like Funimation, crunchy roll, etc) all said it was absolutely excellent. So I decided to give it a shot.

I’m not one who generally likes Cyber punk or post apocalyptic anime’s either but the more they showed of iron city, the more they talked about the world in general the more I wanted to know and the more I wanted to see. It also made me want to read the source material. Which is ultimately the goal of a lot of adaptations.

So what Alita set out to do it nailed in spades. Is it the best movie? No. Is it a good movie? Questionable. Though I think it is. Is it a fun and interesting movie? Absolutely. I left the theater wanting more of that world and the people in it.

its soooooooooooooooooooooooo good.
