Anime... cliffhangers.. DOH!

Jan 23, 2004 Sheean link
So, I tought it would be fun to put a japanese name for my msn nick... within 0.2 microseconds (rough estimate) I got attacked by an anime-fan. And am now waching anime (neon genesis to be precise). Actually it's quite nice, but it has such a nice (or not) way to end a show: cliffhangers, cliffhangers, cliffhangers.

So expect me to not be online on vendetta that often for the comming few days/weeks m'kay?

Hehehe... The ending is really messed up... Once you're done, watch End of Evangelion; it explains a ton...

Yeah, but the later episodes get pretty boring and monotonous... I gave up at around episode 46... If you want some good beginner fansubs, watch Scrapped Princess... Oh, and as a rule of thumb, Anime-Keep's fansubs are great...

i guess to suggest Mr. Miyazaki's works could be completely whack?
Oshii also made very interesting movies (Patlabor 2 the movie, gits -duh!, jin-roh. don't watch avalon, it sucks).

Uuuh, I think I'll just wait till I've watched all of azumanga and neon genesis.. heh; I'll bookmark this page

/me bookmarks this page

PS. Is it just me or does Asuka speak some really, really, really bad German? I tought she was speaking Japanese the first time she started talking German O.o

Hehehe... Yeah, Miyazaki's pretty well known; I've seen Spirited Away, and it was great...

Stellvia!!!! Like anime, like vendetta, like a 16 year old programmer chick that likes to smash her ship into the teachers? If so, watch Stellvia of the Universe!! Good series, really good series. :)

pyro, i know that miyazaki is well-known (heck, in japan, they consider his movies to be "normal").
nevertheless, he makes very good movies (coherent plot, nice animation, pleasing character design, among other things).

Shipon? Chick? Uhhh... Whatever you say, SF... :P

And toshiro, I didn't say anything against Miyazaki; I love his movies...

Edit: There's a review of Stellvia at http://animeacademy.com/library/stellvia/stellvia.html. The "chick" SF was talking about is the one in the picture at the top.

Hmm... looks ok to me
Jan 26, 2004 StarFreeze link
okay if not chick, then what? man? lol...

it's a good series, you'll love it
Jan 26, 2004 Pyro link
Oh, I thought you meant chick in another sense, knowing you... :P

Uhh.. well anyway; I'll try and find a place to download as soon as I'm done with neon genesis (I'm not going to watch 3 shows at the 'same' time)

Did you download Eva?!? Bad pirate! No cookie for you!

Stellvia: http://www.animesuki.com/series.php/131.html

Rice box's big all at once copies are the only way to go.
