Anime is weird made for weirdos

[EvilPanda]

The whole kawaii culture sux IMO, and the anime characters you find annoying are called "moe" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moe_(slang)

I like anime, but only of a certain type, like Berserk, Ninja Scroll, Cowboy Bebop.

those are some top notch anime's, you took me back haha. I LOVE Berserk and Cowboy Bebop. You also forgot Trigun ! Aaah those were the days  

If you enjoyed CowBoy bebop, definitely checkout Wolf's Rain it's highly underrated but made from the same creator of cowboy bebop.

I certainly do miss the art style of the older anime (90's to mid 2000's), for some reason i feel today's anime are heavily reliant on CGI and lack distinctive art style. The writing also used to be  much deeper.

Then check out the Berserk Manga, it continued much after the anime and the anime's ending is a filler.

I read it, there is something similar to Berserk called Jackals, a lot of giant swords and blood


Seen a bit of Wolf's Rain but didn't like it that much.

I've got disgusted of all this manga shit. I'm not watching since a long time and I'm not planing to watch any more.

I just keep some good memories of the proper stuff like Akira, Ghost in the Shell, Evangelion, TriGun, Cowboy Bebop,...
Also Hayao Miyazaki / Studio Ghibli movies.

A good manga should give you new insights of the world.
If it's just a retarded shit made to distract you from your geek life then you better stop and go out.

True, I recommend everyone to check out "Hotaru no haka" I cried like a baby watching this, probably one of the most sad and touching anime I've seen.

Also if you like serious anime watch Jin-Ro!

Oh my god Jin-Ro & Hotaru no haka. I forgot about them.
I cried like a baby too on Hotaru no haka.

well it depends on your taste... I kinda like new anime's some of them the MAINSTREAM ONES and POPULAR... But i like old ones too like ONE PIECE NATURO AND BLEACH...

I used to like Swanson TV dinners but now they look weird and taste weird. Like the old stuff like Salisbury steak was bad ass but all this new stuff Is ghay and weird.

I went to a TV dinner convention and almost puked at the number of people telling me SOMETHING SOMETHING CHICKEN BROWNIE SWEET CORN BLAH BLAH POTATOES then they put an umami look on their face right after that and a victory sign emulating TV dinners.

Well FUCK U

Good memories...


Aside from Toonami though, anime used to be good back in the day, now it feels like most of them are childish.

same here Hotaru no haka was really touching, and i don't know anyone who hasn't cried watching it 

I'm a big fan of Ghibli , specifically the work of Myazaki i believe he's legendary.

Good times for sure, you also reminded me of Gundam Wing i totally forgot about it!

I watched Toonami however most of my Anime were fansubs via IRC

Just look at the mostly hand-drawn art they had those days, way superior had so much more character compared to what i see in today's very generic anime. Personally i haven't watched Anime in YEARS.

The old stuff like Salisbury steak = Not too bad if you heat it up "completely", without getting too hot.

is Hotaru no haka Grave of the Fireflies? That movie was so depressing.. just bummed me out, I don't think I'd ever watch it again.

Wolf's Rain was one of my favorite shows. It was short and sweet and had a really sad ending too

Agreed, the hand-drawn art from older animes were so much better than most of today's stuff. I haven't watch anime in years either. But I want to see Miyazaki's new movie

Yup that's the one, I probably won't watch it again, it's one of those you watch once and never forget.

IMAO great topic, I use to think so too cause my cousin had so many perverted anime that I thought they were only for perverts.

[Lethn]

Bet you guys never heard of Twelve Kingdoms, it's a really good Anime that ended up getting cut short like Firefly, goes on for about 45 episodes I think?

I also liked Full Metal Panic!
