Woo, an Onidere chapter on Mitsuki! Totemo kawaii…

Nipples and shota glomping. I’m curious as to how both chicks are going to end up topless and attached to him. Should be good.

Also, if they do make Yuria 100 shiki into an anime, they should have slow motion close ups of all the wrestling moves like in techmo world wrestling for the nes

Just started watching Hellsing Ultimate but I’m haveing real trouble takeing Anderson seriously.

It’s not that he has the same seiyu as the narrator from Hayate the Combat Butler, it’s that quite a lot of the time he will talk in the exact same way as how he did the narration for Hayate the Combat Butler, just can’t take any scene with him in it seriously.

Does anyone else have this trouble?

Is there any sensible mangaka out there that actually has great knowledge on the topic they are writing about? Mangakas nowadays are extremely run of the mill with great imagination but lacking in depth of knowledge.

If your going to have a series on military strategy, ninjas, or whatever, DO SOME DAMN RESEARCH on the topic. Fan service to make up for lack of knowledge gets dull quickly.

A text omake for Fap Note’s out.

Nice to see things worked out between Kurosawa and Sugawa.

Never had this problem, I actually watched the anime first (Hellsing vanilla lol), then started reading the manga, then started watching Hellsing Ultimate after I read book 8 of the manga so it doesn’t really take the “edge” away :lol:

Not really. That is how Wakamoto is; in one minute he uses his exact same voice for a badass gun totting priest - in another, [media=youtube]HohUMYmw-6U]a yellow perverted blob or [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixZa0Pji8_k[/media].

So this week’s Spice and Wolf S2 had

Spice and Wolf S2 #4

Spoiler

…no new Horo speaking scenes at all. Except for that bit where Lawrence imagines how Horo would be with Amanti.

Those of you who aren’t interested in the business side of S&W might not enjoy this episode so much; but it develops the rivalry between Amanti and Lawrence and the latter’s way at trying to get back at the guy. More or less a transitional episode for what’s to come. At least next week we’ll probably see Diana again.

Tokyo Magnitude #4

Spoiler

Mirai is still with her rebellious and tempermental attitude; she even made her brother cry and almost lost him. She also seems to have the worst of luck from the start of the episode. Amazing how the quake seems to be still going and is so strong that the Tokyo Tower crashed down.

Yeah it makes me mad when I see all these lolis using super advanced seduction techniques, or even worse, when they have super expensive Gothic clothes but maintain a carefree attitude. Everybody knows that little girls who are dedicated to fashion have low self esteem and are highly impressionable. I swear some of these mangakas have never even taken advantage of child.

The ninja thing is inexcusable too. Japan has like what, a dozen ninja villages? The fact they are too lazy to go to their local shinobi archive and read a few forbidden scrolls is just bad authorship. Seriously, what is the point of even having an imagination if you aren’t going to strictly adhere to historical factuality?

Did anyone see that CNN piece on how poor Animators are in Japan?

^Damn that shits depressing, well I buy my manga so I ain’t part of the problem :rofl:

Well it’s not a big surprise; considering how a lot of anime these days use Korean animators to help out in the animation instead of their own.

Makes me mad when companies bitch about piracy. They’ll suffer until they figure how to profit from technology properly.

People ain’t going back to less effective methods of distribution, so move your asses.

I think they’re pissed because they didn’t get the memo :sweat:

Fate/Stay Night gets an (animated) movie adaptation. Now I wonder who’s picking this up? Would be awesome if it’s ufotable like in the Kara no Kyoukai movies.

O.o…That flip book is scary.

Sheeeit, one of the many reasons artists reconsider being artists.

There’s no way this will turn out good, that arc hella long for one movie.

Eh… I need something new to watch.

I like the style the White Album manga is drawn in more so than in the anime.

Initial D comes to mind for me personally.Holyland as well to an extent

Rakan is too rigged.
