Jake the Sage Posted September 14, 2012 Report Share Posted September 14, 2012 Black to be honest I am going to miss you a bit. I mean I know we really haven't been around each other that much, but you are still a good friend too me and despite Caeda and I having our differences I will miss her too. Just, like I've already told Fusion, pop in from time to time or catch me on Skype and I think I'll manage. LOL Also, if you don't come in and read the story I'm working hard on then I'll personally fly/drive to your house to slap you across the face!

CinnamonStar Posted September 16, 2012 Report Share Posted September 16, 2012 Also, this Sword art thing reminds me of .hack//sign, but with more action and less character problems (I think). I'm mostly a fan of the soundtrack, not so much the Anime itself. If anyone is going to find me an Anime I like (besides Saint Seiya and X-1999), not-bad.jpg. And yeah, I don't expect many people to join (but then again, I didn't expect the calm-yo-farms stunt to be taken seriously).

Jake the Sage Posted September 20, 2012 Report Share Posted September 20, 2012 Who here has actually seen "Digimon: The Movie" and/or "The Girl Who Leaped Through Time"? I actually didn't like the Digimon movie. The beginning "short" is also taboo to me considering how poorly it was done and that it was pointless. Actually did you know that movie was three separate ones combined into a single overlapping story which . . . honestly . . . didn't overlap at all; Willis wasn't even in the first two movies, which is why they only reference him until the third part. The only thing I really liked was the way the Digimon looked in there along with the style the internet was shown. The Girl Who Leaped Through Time was a lot better, but for some reason even though it was amazingly beautiful in design I can't get interested in the storyline. There isn't much else to say about it since I can't complain about the visuals and the story just isn't interesting enough to me . . . Summer Wars, on the other hand, is a good story and good visuals. It is excellent~! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fusion X. Denver Posted September 29, 2012 Report Share Posted September 29, 2012 Yeah, I kinda/sorta know the ending, but not really, but I get it's not very happy and I like happy endings. So I'll probably like the alternate outtake, but prefer the original more. Interestingly though, Arakawa admitted she liked the original FMA better than what she made by the end. She considers it a superior story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
