I'm not a huge fan of the show, but it was at least fun. It was so refreshing to watch something where it actually feels like things are happening each episode. It was satisfying, as opposed to constant cliffhanger endings that lead into a two minute fight scene the next episode, and that's it.

Robot Wars is finally back on a free channel. My inner eight-year-old weeps with joy.

Josh 08-04-2010 02:20 AM

Really? Wow, there is a God.

Wings of Fire 08-04-2010 02:20 AM

Wrong thread?

Unless you prefix a Super to that.

Josh 08-04-2010 02:22 AM

Blame MeechMunchie, he made me do it.

Wings of Fire 08-04-2010 02:24 AM

You zany kids.

MeechMunchie 08-04-2010 02:31 AM

Oh yeah. Sorry folks. That was supposed to be in 'I've Just Seen...'. Can someone move that please?

Wings of Fire 08-04-2010 11:41 AM

Well. after playing it on and off since mid May, I am now finally finished with Higurashi.

One of the best stories I've ever read. It was simply awesome from beginning to end.

Omg I love that show!!! :D ....


Unlike Bakugan, which I've been watching a bit of just to see what it's about. Half the episode is just boring, repetitive monster fights. Well I guess I'm not a guy huh.

Strike Witch 08-05-2010 01:34 AM

Skip Bakugan and try Dinosaur King.

Mac Sirloin 08-06-2010 10:52 AM

Berserk made me a man. Never forget about Berserk.

Wings of Fire 08-24-2010 07:46 PM

I just finished watching Rebuild of Evangelion 2.0 You May (Not) Advance, and I'm reasonably sure it was one of the coolest things I've ever seen in my life.

This was my absolute favourite bit.

Alf Shall Rise 08-25-2010 11:05 AM

About two weeks ago I watched Eureka Seven, and I just watched the movie today as well. I thought the anime was really well made, however, the movie was...different. In a bad way, in my opinion.

Skip Bakugan.

This right here is why I hate watching weeaboos talk about anime. You people will discuss the most insipid, ridiculous garbage, and will actually have to tell other weeaboos not to watch, because they won't know otherwise.

It sounds like this, "Skip having AIDS, and don't have AIDS". Oh, yeah!? You mean Bakugan isn't any good? Hoooooooly shit. Thanks for clearing that up.

With the general populace, it's expected that you will have to try to educate them on what's actually worth watching, but you fucking weeaboos feel like you're clued in to something. You feel like you've discovered a unique art form, and anyone who doesn't like the bad shit that it produces "just doesn't understand the culture".

Wrong. Most of you have some of the most ridiculously bad taste I have ever encountered. Anyone who even has to have a conversation about the merits of Bakugan doesn't deserve to be called coherent, much less intelligent. But whatever. Why should I care? Go enjoy your AIDS.

Strike Witch 08-26-2010 06:46 AM

I watched, like, 15 minutes of bakugan on TV one morning while eating corn flakes. It was boring as hell.

Laser 08-26-2010 06:50 AM

Read the graphic novels Watchman, Hellboy, V for Vendetta, Sandman, Sin City, Blankets, Scott Pilgrim and Transmetropolitan.

There we are. Counteracted all the bad anime in this entire thread.

Strike Witch 08-26-2010 06:51 AM

Scott Pilgrim is a dick channeling bad webcomics like spooge and Watchmen is like a huge grimdark joke.

Hellboy is cool tho

Laser 08-26-2010 06:56 AM

...spose. But you can't beat a bit of Doctor Manhatten: http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__..._reappears.jpg

Strike Witch 08-26-2010 06:57 AM

Wow, nudity, I've never seen that in anime before.

Cammy 08-26-2010 07:01 AM

He has a small dick.

Strike Witch 08-26-2010 07:05 AM

Unlike Cammy's monster cock.

Wings of Fire 08-26-2010 07:21 AM

I've seen bigger.

To be fair, I wasn't refering to how naked he was. Just how freaking awesome he is.

This is Mio.

She once leapt off the back of a cargo plane in the upper atmosphere in nothing but a swimsuit and cut an alien battleship in half with a sword.

Laser 08-26-2010 07:30 AM

Damn you Anime and your stupid characters!

Strike Witch 08-26-2010 07:33 AM

This is Gecko Moria. He can steal people's shadows and eat them to gain their powers. People without shadows are turned to dust in the sun. He has an island which is also a ship full of patchwork zombies.

This used to be my most hated character ever until I saw this screen in the new movie.

That's the power of an eyepatch.

Strike Witch 08-26-2010 07:38 AM

This is Remilia Scarlet.

She is a 500-year-old vampire who can swing a massive spear with ease, fly around the world in a few seconds, and can manipulate fate.

Wings of Fire 08-26-2010 07:39 AM

She also contrives a whole game's plotline so her maid can make some new friends.

Strike Witch 08-26-2010 07:41 AM

http://i28.tinypic.com/beq9l.jpg

This is Yui.

She's pretty dense, lazy, single-minded and clumsy.

But she's pretty damn good at the electric guitar.

Wings of Fire 08-26-2010 07:48 AM

Nonono

'This is Yui, half of everyone watching K-ON! wants to stick their thingy in her.'

This is Summer Wars.

Joe loves Summer Wars.

Joe loves Summer Wars.



It won awards, it's prety much better than anything else on this page.

Strike Witch 08-26-2010 07:56 AM

Not One Piece.

Wings of Fire 08-26-2010 07:59 AM

Fuck One Piece.

Shonen shit will be shonen shit whatever, unless it's G Gundam.

Strike Witch 08-26-2010 08:01 AM

Sorry, but you're very wrong. Summer Wars features good characters + heartwarming end

One Piece features more good characters and multiple littler heartwarming ends.

It wins in sheer volume.

Wings of Fire 08-26-2010 08:04 AM

It also has a writer who thinks he's better than other writers in his refusal to kill anyone off, and by now the story is just so long with no real end goal apart from 'BECOMING THE KING OF THE PIRATES' that it's not worth my emotional involvement.

Sorry but you're very wrong, smaller stories win over bigger ones every time.

Strike Witch 08-26-2010 08:09 AM

Wow, you know nothing. 1. He says he thinks killing people off as a cheap way to stir emotion is bad, he prefers to pull emotions in other ways, 2. people die 3. The plot has been advancing a hell of a lot. And the end goal is uncovering the secrets of the Rio Poneglyph, stopping the ancient weapons, uncovering One Piece, and defeating the world government.

So no, I'm not. I cried one and smiled once in joy with Summer Wars. I've done both multiple times with One Piece.

Wings of Fire 08-26-2010 08:12 AM

So why did Luffy's brother die again?

Strike Witch 08-26-2010 08:14 AM

Because it worked. He doesn't use it when it would be cheap, but he's done it before when it fits.
