Re: What Manga are you currently reading?
Well, thanks (for OT :balloon:) - yeah, I kinda love OP too even with its faults.
Currently reading - well, basically nothing, since I prefer to read volumes instead of catching chapter after...

Re: What Manga are you currently reading?
Yeah, it was a great day for non-Japanese readers when GWC decided to pick it up (after years of waiting - well, maybe not years :...:). Well, now that VIZ decided to 'pick it up', I wonder how will...

Anime Castle
https://www.animecastle.com/
Prices seems to be ok, though I usually wander there because of manga. Shop design is excellent (at least usability-wise) and it seems they even avoided using that...

Re: Now and Then, Here and There
valondar: It's not that I would dislike Asuka as a 'person' - but for me she is synonym of NGE degradation into slapstick comedy in the middle part of the series, for me symbolized by Asuka's...

Re: Now and Then, Here and There
Shinji is fine character in my opinion. I don't really get all that hatred for him. I never considered him to be annoying (how would it be even possible - there is hate-queen Asuka in NGE for f.'s...

Re: Now and Then, Here and There
KelsieKatt: Good for you. I am just saying that quality of Berserk adaptation (IMO) is on par with quality of Gantz adaptation (i.e. pretty bad). Gantz is one of the better seinen manga out there - I...

Re: Now and Then, Here and There
I advise avoiding the anime altogether and read the manga instead. Seriously. Especially if you hated Gantz. Because I consider Gantz anime and Berserk anime to be rather similar - botched...

Re: Now and Then, Here and There
Everyone? I thought I am the only one. Well, I don't understand why everyone dislikes Shinji from NGE, for example.
Regarding Shu - first episode kinda describes my 'gripe' with him - loud,...

Re: Neon Genesis Evangelion
Oh, well, minor detail. Though overall I consider NGE to be a good anime, episodes 11-16 are craptastic IMO :drink:

Re: The Twelve Kingdoms
Well, I wasn't serious, but still - I enjoyed the first arc the most and I was a bit disappointed afterwards. Especially because later arcs are (IMO) not as coherent/concluded (character-wise).

Re: Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion

Re: Appleseed
Well, I think the animation is awesome even today (if you watch (pseudo)HD version at least). My favorite part is the night flight mission in this regard. Otherwise I agree with 7/10. Though I have...

Re: Read Or Die TV
Well, IMO OVA was pretty good - perfect timing, could be even longer I think. But I am not comparing TV and OVA, I liked both.
