RE: Anime Thread
Big post for the devil 666 noo! >:C
Animu I have watched recently:
Pincess Jellyfish 8,5/10 (Kuragehime) (11 ep)
About a "nerd girl" (or actually a group of them) who befriends a cross-dressing boy. The girl loves jellyfish and uhh... one of the other girls likes trains! Uh...
"Amamizukan is an apartment complex where no boys are allowed. Kurashita Tsukimi, a girl who adores jellyfish, lives there happily with her friends who all have nerdy obsessions of their own. Their peaceful lives gradually start to change when a beautiful woman helps Tsukimi out of a pinch... but it turns out "she" is really a "he.""
Thank you. Gotta love the characters in this. Reminds me a tiny bit of Maison Ikkoku. Now there is a masterpiece.
Daily Life of High School Boys 10/10 (Danshi Koukousei no Nichijou) (12 ep)
I don't know when I have last laughed so much. Extremely funny and pretty different to the other comedy / slice of life / school life animes out there (like Azumanga Daioh!).
Bakemonogatari (aka Ghostory) 8/10 (15 ep)
Loads of talking, no actual "plot" (well, there are some "oddities" posessing the side characters but...). An episode can can just be a few people talking. Point is though, the dialogue is really well written and the anime is directed in a special and weird way so it will hold your attention. Includes some fanservice, although it wasn't even very obvious to me at first...?
Nisemonogatari 9/10 ("Fake story") (11 ep)
Sequel / second season to Bakemonogatari. More dialogue, some action and well done fanservice (...the thootbrush scene... might have been too much...). There is actually a small plot now and I liked it. The direction is more calm. If you liked Bakemonogatari you should enjoy this. I enjoyed it much more than Bake.
The Girl Who Leapt Trough Time (movie) 7,5/10
Overhyped, but ok.
Lupin the Third: The Woman Called Fujiko Mine 10/10 (13 ep)
Uh. This show is not really for children. But. Like. Most enjoyable anime ever. I just loved the plot and just the general feel to the whole thing. I need more of this.
(A "reboot" of Lupin the Third. I have no former Lupin experience.)
Crayon Shin-chan 18: Super-Dimmension! The Storm Called My Bride (movie) 6,5/10
Watched it because lol.
Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann 10/10 (27 ep)
This anime is just... so overdone. Shonen friendship rage, "believe in yourself" and big talk parodizing and perfecting the whole deal with doing the impossible. Starting with a big bang and getting bigger every episode until they literally... *not gonna spoil*. Yeah. Watch this if you want to know what epic means.
Watching now:
Michiko & Hatchin (4/22 ep)
Cowboy Bebop (12/26 ep)
(then Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei)
