Studio Ghibli films are the ones I like. Although, Blood the Last Vampire was good.

Studio Ghibli is awesome, I agree...Castle in the Sky probably being my favorite, but they're all pretty darn good.

Blood the Last Vampire...gaaa, how could they destroy such excellent animation by using the most HORRIBLE voice-acting yet witnessed by man?   

Bleach, my brother's got that, been too lazy to watch it...I just got Deeper Kyo, haven't watched that yet either...all you lucky people with your fancy Cable get to watch whatever you want, lol.  I just steal it from my friends who've pirated it onto their computers.

Re: Anime Banter

Good... Bad... I'm the one with the gun.

Re: Anime Banter

Wow, you guys put me to shame.  I've seen the first four seasons of Sailor Moon, the first two of Digimon, the first three of Tenchi, Cowboy Bebop, Outlaw Star, most of Escaflowne, Gundam Wing, the same amount of YuYu Hakusho as everybody else, a little bit of Inuyasha, the Cell Saga from Dragonball Z, and all of Pokemon up to where they got rid of Brock the first time (it just wasn't the same without him).  Now all I watch is the occasional Naruto episode.

Tenchi really bugged me when they changed backstories after the first 12 episodes (or however many it was.)

Re: Anime Banter

I have recently watched one episode of "Orphen," and "Vampire Hunter D."

Good to see you again Chrys.

take it easy baby take it as it comes

Re: Anime Banter

I've never heard of Orphen.  What's it about?

Re: Anime Banter

In the episode the protaganist (Orphen) killed some acid monster or something. I would not recomend it. I would recomend the manga Death Note and Zombie Powder.

Re: Anime Banter

I just started watching Excel Saga online. Funniest anime series I've seen.

It's about Lord Ilpalazzo the Second and his two underpayed teenage employees working from a leaky basement lair to take over the world starting with Japan.
In the first episode the main character Excel is ordered to kill a certain manga artist and she ends up getting rid of the manga artist for the series and they have to start the entire episode over again.

Re: Anime Banter

Well, when you finally get away from dial-up Excel Saga's on youtube. Or it's in Manga format as well.

Trinity Blood and Bleach this weekend. Eureka Seven. Ought to at least be interesting.

Motoko's clothing changes at least in the second season

Re: Anime Banter

Aaaa, lost my Eureka Seven.  sad  My pirated OS keeps causing problems, hehe.  Right now, I can never turn it off, or it won't boot up again.  But anyway...
  Glad to hear the clothes change, I have the second season also.
Bleach...watched the first episode off my brother's computer, I'll copy it once I get a stable OS and watch it.  tongue  Can you download the videos off of Youtube?

No, and the only real way to download is bittorrents or fan sites. I guess I could look.

Thanks...I'm so close to college and fast internet, so happy... big_smile
I'm going to go watch some more Ghost in the Shell...curious as to what Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence is?

"If you don't want me to eat you.....SAY SOMETHING." 
-Captian Murphy

Re: Anime Banter

Innocence centers around Batou and Togusa after Motoko left Section Nine because of the Puppet Master. Animation in this movie is excellent. Plot...not so much.
The first movie took a good chunk of the first manga while the second movie took what the first didn't.

Would not suggest watching the first movie, in the manga and anime Motoko can go nearly invisble. But for the movie she has to take her clother off first. And the second movie is just something to watch for the amazing visuals.

Re: Anime Banter

Heh, i just watched lupin the third, and Case closed from my old collection. Great shows if u ever get the chance.

Case closed is about a teen genius who is turned into a child and must solve mysteries by making the real detective feel like he is solving it (for anyone who likes shows where u solve the crime with the characters).

Lupin III is about a master thief and his two partners who rob high class places, and are always gettin in trouble. It is hilarious, and the cop is like the guy from the pink panther.

Thanks for warning me...


I've never heard of either of those Fetter...guess I'll have to keep my eyes out for them.

Re: Anime Banter

I've seen them both, and I think Cased Closed is a great show. Its keeps you in suspense and keeps you thinking. wink
Lupin third is old and entertaining but I like Case Closed better.

Re: Anime Banter

Yea I think they mention it every now and again in the show, it's one of the reasons the co never gives up.

Re: Anime Banter

So where are you all watching your anime?  Are you just buying the DVD sets as you go?  And as for manga, are you getting them at Borders or something?

Re: Anime Banter

If you mean me, I buy my manga at a local anime store. It is not a chain store, so I shan't give the name. I watch most of the anime on Toonami and Adult Swim, but I am going to buy the uncut Naruto boxed set when I get enough money.

take it easy baby take it as it comes

Re: Anime Banter

Me, I don't read any magna...except the stuff I steal from my brother.  tongue
But I got all my anime from LAN party friends, just copied it off their computers.  I have no clue where they got it...probably just copied it from their friends too.  The only downside being low-resolution for some, no English dubs, and missing episodes occasionally.  But I don't have to pay for it, so I'm cool.  big_smile

Re: Anime Banter

Just saw Trinity Blood over the weekend. Compared to the Hellsing anime it is quite a bit better. But maybe that's just because I prefer the Hellsing manga.
Can't wait for next saturday's episode. And for those of us living inthe United States, Fullmetal Alchemist Conqueror of Shamballa on dvd tomorrow. Would have seen the movie in a theater first but I didn't want to drive all the way to Fort Collins.

Re: Anime Banter

I was not able to watch it, as it comes on at midnight. If I stayed up and watched it, I would not get my allounce, which I will use to by the anime if it comes out.

Balance Sheet,  try Kazaa.
