Thar Posted June 21, 2012 Report Share Posted June 21, 2012 I feel so mainstream compared to most people here. xD I might've felt more obligated to watching more anime if I stayed in Anime Club in high school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted June 21, 2012 Report Share Posted June 21, 2012 Bleach in anyone's top 5 immediately invalidates anything they say on the subject. 1. Angel Beats! 2. Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann 3.

[/quote] I'll be honest, I've found most of the time that mainstream stuff's better than stuff that isn't so much. Maybe it's just my personal tastes, but even awesome stories like 20th Century Boys, Code Geass and alla that don't compare to DBZ, Naruto, One Piece, etc to me. Though honestly, Angel Beats, TTGL and Code Geass have become mainstream, amongst the "anime community" at least. And bro...anime clubs are just awkward. Firstly, it singles you out as someone into "Japanese stuff". While I DO think that people SHOULDN'T be judged for that, they are, because that's how high schools and colleges work. Secondly, I don't know about you, but I'd feel weird watching an ecchi and/or emotional scene with other people. Kinda like how things feel awkward if you're watching a movie with your mom and a sex scene comes on. Thirdly, I can't imagine everyone coming to an agreement on what to watch, since anime has many different genres and preferences. Though that last one's not much a bad reason, but still, the idea of an anime club never appealed to me.

Vanguard [/quote] While I cannot disagree that Bleach got a sub-par anime adaption, or that the writing has reflected the skills of a 6th grader that had a stroke, the most important part behind ANY anime is that it's entertaining. And despite Bleach's quality, I cannot deny that it's entertained me for the most part, and I'm not tuning in each week merely because I feel obligated to finish. How long is Bitter Virgin anyways? If it's short enough, I may decide to give it a 2nd shot after finishing Monster. Which, by the way, I recommend to all of you, since I've heard nothing BUT good things about it, and I'm already into it 10 chapters in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then a fight started, and he ran off crying. So I just walked out and sorta not went anymore. But then everyone in it turned out to be very nice people and I wished I stayed.

Sploda Posted June 22, 2012 Report Share Posted June 22, 2012 My School had an anime club. Except they all focused on Azumanga daioh, which was annoying. I told them to check out some stuff and they were like "Hmph, what do you know about anime". I simply replied, "More than you." and walked off with boss mode enabled.

Nath~ Posted June 22, 2012 Report Share Posted June 22, 2012 I would never be able to rank my favorite anime.

Blake Posted June 24, 2012 Report Share Posted June 24, 2012 I just assigned Voice Actors to the cast of the Sacred Stones because I've been playing it.

Sploda Posted June 24, 2012 Report Share Posted June 24, 2012 Ummm... yeah, I don't think either of those would work. gdi, to many good characters in a game. I don't think Yuri would be Joshua, if sticking with the usual thing it would be Yuri as Ephraim and Johnny as Lyon by this logic. Also, y u no respond to Skype?

Blake Posted June 24, 2012 Report Share Posted June 24, 2012 Ephraim doesn't fit Yuri characters at ALL though. X_X Lyon only sorta fits Johnny.

Fusion X. Denver Posted June 24, 2012 Report Share Posted June 24, 2012 Wow that's a long list .-. I need to play my PS3 once I get back from MA. Did anyone see anything they actually liked at E3? My biggest draws were the new Spidey and Luigi's Mansion. Everything else was pretty much a sub-thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
