anime and manga's that you like
 
hey i realy enjoy anime and manga and i wanted to know what series and episodes other people like because i am running out of things to watch and read :P

Mac Sirloin 09-23-2007 05:28 PM

read Eathnote.

Only one I'll endorse.

And maybe Detergent, that ones good to.

Jordan 09-23-2007 10:17 PM

I like anime. It's pretty lame how they're never showed anymore. I liked Dragon Ball Z the most.

Patrick Vykkers 09-24-2007 12:10 AM

What the French streaker on a fat boy slim pie eating Dr No's corpse and drinking the blood of Matt Damon on a trampoline are you on? Anime is everywhere, I tell ya.

Havoc 09-24-2007 02:57 AM

Dragonball Z and GT are pretty much the only anime series I like and have watched from start to finish. I guess I watched Pokemon when I was a kid...

Mac Sirloin 09-24-2007 03:55 AM

Yeah, But DBZ doesn't play anymore >=c (
Anyone get that 'Detergent' thing?

Hobo 09-24-2007 01:44 PM

I detest anime and manga and cannot understand how anyone likes it.

Strike Witch 09-24-2007 02:04 PM

Lucky Star, Haruhi, Skygirls, Gundam, and Zombie Loan.

I don't like genres, I like shows.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I agree with you completely.

The only thing good coming out of modern Japan was Final Fantasy VII.

Why!? What about Neon Genesis Evangelion, Vampire Hunter D, Ninja Scrolls, Ghost in the Shell, and Ranma 1/2?

Oh and those hot girls in my computer science class, but they could be from any east asian country as far as I know

Havoc 09-25-2007 01:51 AM

I don't understand how someone can like the entire genre. I mean I like DBZ but I have absolutely no interest in the rest of the anime genre because it's much of the same done with different stories. As an artform anime is pretty impressive, not everyone can draw like that, but storywise a lot of it is the same.

Bullet Magnet 09-25-2007 03:04 AM

I like specific series, rather than lumping together so many simply due to the language and artistic style. I did used to watch Monster Rancher as a kid, and recently I couldn't take my eyes off of Club-to-death Angel purely because it was so bizarre. It seemed to have no target audience, combining innocuous (and not-so innocuous) young teen romance, and repeated bloody beheadings of the main character via an enchanted spikey club.

Rex Tirano 09-25-2007 04:09 AM

It would depend what kind of genre you wanted.

Personally I bum Fushigi Yuugi but that's because I'm a girl and abit sad like that. But my [horrible :p] boyfriend recently got me Battle Royale, which is a shonen manga, and it's actually quite good. Despite my reservations about the art work.

Most of the girly mangas are all the same though, girl meets boy, girl loves boy, boy's a dickhead; that sort of thing. But I like it so... Meh.

You've got to admit that manga artists are very talented.

Dragonball Z is a whole other matter though... :|

Damn you should be a politician...

Explain why.

I bet you watched Pokemon, or Dragon Ball, or dragon Ball Z like all the rest of us as a childs.

skillya_glowi 09-25-2007 07:15 PM

I dislike anime/manga because the style annoys me, and therefore I don't watch it.

abe is now! 09-26-2007 10:58 AM

Manga?!?! ah ah ah, I think manga are very stupid, excpet some anime... Now I'm watching DBZ or Naruto (in Italy there are these animes in TV), otherwise...
When DBZ will finish I will not watch more anime.

  1. The Art style is just annoying ond over used
  2. Its badly dubbed
  3. The faces are annoying
  4. They use genric annoying queer american sound alike accents
  5. The porn is shit
  6. and I generally dislike it

Well said, Hobo!!! manga are very bad comic strips. I don't like them.

God dammit Laser, way to have an awesome opinion.
every single reason on that list (except MAYBE 1) is valid.

Oh, and Abe Is Now? Naruto is shit, DBZ is fine, but Naruto is the worst of them all.

And needless to say, club-to-death angel is the shit.

GTdragon 09-27-2007 12:17 PM

o3o. I enjoy reading manga when I have a chance to, but when it comes to anime I get very very picky. One particular anime that I hate with the passion is Naruto (Narutards x3). I feel so unclean when I watch five seconds of it. One anime that I do enjoy watching is Paranoia agent.

Laser 09-27-2007 12:46 PM

i'm glad to know that i have at least some good opinions

Mac Sirloin 09-27-2007 04:47 PM

Ugh, Narutards.

I know this one, and he's ALWAYS FUCKING ROLLDERBLADING.

So whenever he passes me I sing that 'Keep ROLLIN' ROLLIN ROLLIN ROLLIN!' song.

Laser 09-28-2007 10:53 AM

i know about 5 of them and they are really really obsessive about it
*shudder*

Alf Shall Rise 09-28-2007 05:49 PM

No...


...not anime.

Strike Witch 09-30-2007 12:33 AM

I suppose I like shows that interest me, not just randomly attaching myself to a genre. Same with music, I like songs, not artists.

The thing I HATE about Anime is the fans. Hell, the only group of fans of ANYTHING I like was for Transformers, but even then, a good half of them are screwed up over-serious fuckers. The only ones I hung out with are the ones who can get that it's just a show. Wooo.

At any rate, my fave Anime?

Lucky Star: It's based off a comic strip, and the whole show is basically a parody, from the OP to the credits.

Sky Girls: It's Mecha, interesting Mecha, and the characters are interesting. Plus, the theme music has hilariously bad Engrish. "Pre-et-et-et-y SKY GIRL!!! 2,1,2,2!!!"

Haruhi: Awesome show, insane and creepy, yet outwardly fun.

OANST 09-30-2007 12:53 PM

I don't like Naruto but I love the theme song. It is the funniest damn thing I have ever heard in my life. It's 90 percent japanese with a few phrases in english thrown in. For instance: "We are fighting dreamers" and "Right here, right now. Bang!"

So damn funny.
