[OOC] The Legend of Heroes: Tales of the World

[Rexcalibur]

My sleep schedule is really messed up right now ^^; Sorry for the MIA again, I literally spent like the whole day sleeping. I'll post (and respond to Fox's q 8D - all my middle school nostalgia inbound) soon as I'm able to in the morning!

[Pachamac]

Favourite animes, favourite animes... hmm. I haven't really watched many new/recent animes for quite some time so this list... might contain a few oldies, haha. I don't think these are in any particular order, I enjoyed them all. :D

Favourite Animes

Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex

Set in a cyberpunk world, Ghost in the Shell is one of the pinnacles of anime for me, focusing on themes of morality, ethics, technology, etc. The characters are amazing, the plots are intriguing and intense and the musical score is without par. Animation is also glorious. Each season contains a season long storyline that plays out across multiple episodes whilst also containing stand alone episodes that serve as great characterisation to the many characters. GitS is just... amazing.


Cowboy Bebop

Like GitS, Cowboy Bebop is one of the finest anime ever made with sublime animation, well realised characters and incredible music. One of the things I love about Cowboy Bebop is that, whilst it has a running subplot and a couple of two parters, for the most part each episode is again standalone and character centric. And it's probably got the best english dubbing ever. Anyone who's not watched it should go and do so immediately!


Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann

The most manly show in existence.


Planetes

I loved this show a lot. One of the few animes I watched and enjoyed of recent, it's just... fucking amazing. Such great feels.


Azumanga Daioh

The funniest show in the world, similar in vein to Lucky Star (and I'd guess probably K-On too, so you might enjoy it, Fox!), Azumanga Daioh is just funn. Every single damn time.

Honourable Mention



One Piece

The manga is my favourite series in the world, and well... the anime has to be up there too. The only thing holding it back is the absurd number of episodes, the dragged out pacing, awful filler and inconsistent animation. But when it gets it right, it really gets it right. The voice acting and music is top notch. I just wish they did a season thing with One Piece instead, adapting a year's worth of material in like... a 13/26 year ep season and do things that way instead of constantly making it a yearly show. ;~;

[Orpheus]

Back! Church people visited so my post will be a bit late ^^

I haven't watched a lot of anime so OTL Lemme think

[Fox of Spades]

Ghost in a shell looks really action-packed and cool! Defo need to add that to the list >w<)/

And Azumanga Daioh looks adorable ^^

If no one minds, I'll call the next post~

[Orpheus]

Posted! If anyone has something with it, just let me know! I wasn't too sure which moves were better to make since we should be decelerating the action by now, so I hope this works! OTL

[Rexcalibur]

Post is up! I hope the action in my post compensated for my absence, orz. Hope it's okay I changed things a wee bit differently than how Kei worded it re: Francesca's chair hahaha, but if it's not I can change it. It's just a minor thing :>

In the meantime, I'm gonna answer Fox's question. :D These don't have an order either. I really should check out Hell Girl, Gurren Lagann, and Cowboy Bebop. Tokyo Magnitude 8.0's title reminds me too much of the 3/11 quake though so that's one I'm probably shy away from orz.

animememes

Digimon (Season 3)

All the other seasons can go screw themselves, it's all about the Digitamers. :D

---

Yugioh (Seasons 0-4)

I'm just gonna leave this here and walk away

---

Viewtiful Joe

Everything you need to know is in the clip. :D Basically a huge movie geek gets sucked into the world of movies and has to save the movie world from sheer destruction. His favorite movie hero of all time gives him movie-related powers (VFX) like Slow, Mach Speed, and Zoom-In. Based on the awesome video game series.

---

Panty & Stocking with Garterbelt

(Language warning) It's about two angels who were kicked out of heaven. :D (There's this one too <3)

---

Shaman King

(Pun overdose warning) I think Pacman/Fox might appreciate this. :D Not sure if you guys will get some of them since they're in Japanese but it's worth a shot, orz. This series is so brilliant.

---

Honorable mention:



Princess Jellyfish

It's about a guy who cross-dresses and that's all you need to know (well, he's more of a major supporting character, but he's what makes the show <3)

... where's my Borderlands anime ;__;

[Pachamac]

Chocolove has the strangest voice ever, lmfao.

Shaman King tho <33333333

Post is up! We should be veeeeeery near the end of the fight stuff now, if not be able to wrap it up tomorrow, actually, before moving on to winding down the rest of the chapter. The Masked Phantom goes a bit... nutso with his magic, and everyone's caught in the crossfire. Skirts will be flapped, Jay's broken nose will bleed even more profusely. He's a good boss like that.

ALSO.

GUYS.

I JUST CAME BACK FROM WATCHING GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY. YOU NEED TO SEE. YOU NEED TO SEEEEEEE

[Bunanigans]

I'll post in the morning! No worries lol.

I don't watch much anime either, at least not through. I bet you guys are wondering what I do do now lmao. But I'll link one that I marathoned through recently and really enjoyed.

Kyoukai no Kanata


It's just... my kind of thing I guess. Got lots of humour which is a must, kind of a dark fantasy without being morbid at all, still manages to be relateable and it's freaking gorgeous. It's sparing on the details at first and really makes you wait until you know what on earth is going on, and kept my attention throughout. Was kind of stuck on clips which aren't either spoilery or context dependant so you get the opening lol.

Plus Akkey is adorbs even if he's a glasses pervert.

[Fox of Spades]

Shaman King! <3 I don't remember it too well, but I used to stay up so I could watch it. The spirit fighting thing was super cool. Might watch it again for nostalgia's sake and Princess Jellyfish looks different and interesting, haha.

I need to watch Kyoukai no Kanata was well, my friend kept telling me about it, but I was so lazy. //shot

Anddd that trailer looks intense, Pach! Cool space fights, ahoy!

[Orpheus]

I'm back! Everyone's enrollment stuff got erased! EVERYONE! HAHAHAHA- *breaks down and sobs*

Edit: Oh hohohoho Aria. Someone your own size huh- *shot*

I

Posting waaay later.

[Bunanigans]

Does that mean you do get the classes you wanted? *fingers crossed*

And I'm totes watching GotG later today with my bestie smellya guys later!!! *woosh*

[Orpheus]

Nope, everyone's registration was completely wiped and will have to start from scratch, even the upperclassmen who were lucky enough to get their subjects were told that their enrollment was "void" now too. Nobody knows when the system will be fixed or what alternative there will be, so as for now everything is at a standstill.

Oooh, I'm so jealous! Have fuuuun!

[Pachamac]

Kei's gif made me laugh far too hard

Far too hard

Best of luck with all of the enrollment and schedule stuff :/

[Fox of Spades]

Have fun Buns! Good luck Kei-chan :c

If no one minds, I'm gonna call the next post ^^

[Pachamac]

Yeah enjoy GotG Buns! 8D

[Crescendo]

*Ari screeches angrily at big boingadoings*

Imma do the post when I get back to hotel producing I survive the adult conversations yey

[Orpheus]

Posted! I wasn't able to include Lute's part because... I won't be able to do it with the time I have left, plus Miffles's reaction would be gold. I think. Hehe.

Feel free to move him around! Sorry for the bother! OTL

[Pachamac]

Hey everyone! Wonderful posts everyone! You're all absolutely nailing it. c: Much love and respect. From the tiny details like Moira's spit being flung back in her eye, to Fabian flicking Trixie's forehead and the boobie spat between Francesca and Aria... so much quality. You guys... :'D

I'm gonna work on a post after I finish my dinner. ^^

[Rexcalibur]

Yeee, watching Guardians with my bro on Thursday. :)

Keiiii best of luck with getting those classes you want. I know how much of a fit I'd throw if I had my preplanned schedule wiped like that ><

Side note, but my bro and I are gonna be working on packing up our stuff and looking for a new house to move into. Stuff's gone down at home and we literally can't afford to live at our current place any longer. x( I'll still have time to post of course, though if we manage to find a place to move to before my flight to England I'm gonna be helping with the transition. Not quite sure what that means re: internet connectivity though, but at least I've got my phone and bluetooth keyboard if worse comes to worse. I really don't wanna leave you guys hanging with my own chapter lol x.x

EDIT: Post is up! >< Had to afk for a bit longer than I had hoped mid-post ahhh. My bro needed help with giving Riley his fluids since he moved around unexpectedly and drew blood again. Bro didn't have much time to help Riley after he was cleaned up either since he has work in the morn, so I took over for him. I'm really sorry if this cut into anyone else's posting sched (I pretty much reserved this spot for like three hours ugh), especially since I know at least two people usually post around this time, more or less. :(

[Bunanigans]

[edit] DISREGARD THIS LOL. Hope Riley's doing okay now!

GotG was really good I loved it. Oh and good luck with the schedule and stuff Kei, if everyone's was wiped it'll give you another shot, right?

Oh suppose I should say now I won't have a chance to post tomorrow, because I'm back at work and tonight's kick my arse night urgh.
