So... what about western animation or other TV shows? Jeeze even in 4 years how do you power through all that without a break? Are you fluent in Japanese?	Posted by ionface on Jan 11, 2016, 1:24:19 AM Alpha Member Quote this Post
Will be watching almost or at least 2/3 of the anime shows premiering this season. I just like expanding my horizon to have more options to watch, even though, a good amount will not be great. However, this is how I can find hidden gems among them. Though, only a couple caught my interest real quickly like Gate (second cour), Durarara!! season 2 (third cour and last one), Fairy Tail Zero (really liked the short manga side story), and Dagashi Kashi. Sometimes you can take the game out of the garage but you can't take the garage out of the game. - raics, 06.08.2016 Last edited by JohnNamikaze on Jan 11, 2016, 1:27:22 AM	Posted by JohnNamikaze on Jan 11, 2016, 1:25:56 AM Valued Poster Quote this Post
Dimension W seemed pretty good, for a first episode anyway. Ancestral Bond. It's a thing that does stuff. -Vipermagi He who controls the pants controls the galaxy. - Rick & Morty S3E1	Posted by lagwin1980 on Jan 11, 2016, 3:35:57 AM Quote this Post

We had no idea there was more to it than Akira, Fist or Vampire Hunter D. Now the Western viewers are basically on par with the Japanese who learn at a very young age how to filter and focus on their interests, the abundance of choice makes it seem like everything is shit. But if you look closely, even at the height of Moe, there were good things coming out at a steady rate. You just have to be more astute. PS fucking hated FMA for years but brotherhood is a perfect example of what I'm talking about. What a gem, wrapped in a morass of crap. Lol Fullmetal Alchemist is my favourite anime of all time, but I hated the Brotherhood	Posted by diablofdb on Jan 11, 2016, 9:31:47 AM Quote this Post

The only things shows I watch are anime and GoT. And for what anime I've seen in the last 6 years, it averages out to ~4 episodes a day in terms of time. And no, I'm not fluent, I haven't bothered trying to learn it. I mean, I've picked up some, but I couldn't hold a conversation.

Yeah, the sequels are shaping up nicely. I loved the first season of DRRR, but I didn't like the last 2 cours so much. The first episode Ketsu has me believing again. I don't like comedy, but I'm looking forward to Dagashi Kashi too. You make my ochinchin go doki doki.	Posted by GooberM on Jan 11, 2016, 12:28:28 PM Quote this Post
The last VHS that I bought Spoiler I will have a look at the upcomming Serieses later. Last I watched was One-Punch Man. Sad the anime it's already over. “Demons run when a good man goes to war"	Posted by Sneakypaw on Jan 12, 2016, 5:22:36 AM Quote this Post
Going to watch this season: Boku dake ga inai machi Ajin Gate: Jieitai Kanochi nite, Kaku Tatakaeri 2 Hai to Gensou no Grimgar Norn9 was kinda meh Bubuki Buranki ep1 started out promising, but after their fall, it got boring and cheesy real fast. btw, does anyone know if overlord or log horizon are getting another season??

They laid the ground work for a second season...come the final episode it practically teased it, duno about log horizon though. They need to get a grip and announce one punch's second season though...boggles the mind that they'll give shit that is practically hentai multiple seasons and not that. Also seen the preview of the new series for Berserk, i really hate the CGI crap they have been using...will still watch it though. Ancestral Bond.

Speaking of which, I am really getting sick and tired of them putting more and more ecchi shit in every single freaking anime out there. NEWS FLASH: YOU DON'T NEED GRATUITOUS TITS AND ASS TO SELL ANIME - JUST A GOOD STORY AND GOOD CHARACTERS!!! ugh... /rant Last edited by Darkfyre on Jan 13, 2016, 3:58:12 PM	Posted by Darkfyre on Jan 13, 2016, 3:56:53 PM Quote this Post
