Yea, I saw the sex on the end of that definition and thought the same thing.

Decado · 11-06-2005, 02:30 PM

Hasn't this argument/discussion been done to death on this thread yet?

Anyway, regarding this thread, I wonder if we should have two anime threads: one for ongoing/upcoming anime (Bleach, Naruto, One Piece etc.) and one for completed/recommended anime.

There is a clear difference between cartoon and animation. The term cartoon as we know it is misused. Cartoon is just humorous drawing with a caption and they are generally used to satirize some public figure. Warner Bro, MGM and Disney first used the term cartoon when they created 5 ? 10 minutes short animation from the 1930?s until the 1960?s . Since then people started calling them cartoon instead of animated cartoons.

nin gives his soul to nintendo, so its a double blow in my book, and makes sense to me as well. Go hijack another Xbox thread nin, this one is off limits.

I guess I'll give Puni Puni Poemi a shot, sounds interesting. The suggestion for Hundred Stories sounds good too, I like the shorter series length so I have no problems trying it out.

Patlabor is a series I've really wanted to watch for a long time. I saw a slew of episodes back in the early '90s and it has always been in the back of my mind as a show worth watching. I love the fact that they hardly used the robots in the episodes I did see, it was more about the characters themselves. I guess my only concern is the series length, but then again, if I enjoy a show then the more eps the better.

If anyone has any other suggestions let me know, and please try to follow the guidlines I posted earlier. I'm looking for diamonds in the rough (in your opinion)!

Shows I will start watching (in order):

1. Puni Puni Poemi
2. Hundred Stories
3. Patlabor 1st OAV set

spider-prime · 11-07-2005, 09:33 PM

find GaoGaiGar and then the OVA GGG: Final

Its awesome! and like you want a long series its 50 episodes and the OVA is 7 episodes

Its a awesome action mecha series, from takara the creator of Tranformers.

Cyborg Gai is the main character, he had his body destoryed in some freak accident which is still covered in mystery.

He combines with this alien robot called Galleon which is in a form of a Lion, and becomes GaiGar and later with the Gao Machines he becomes GaoGaiGar the King of Braves.

The Characters in this are awesome and a very deep plot. Wait till you see the ending to it, its insane in all catagories! the OVA is insane in action, holy crap I watched it like 50 times it was soooo good.

If you're going to watch Puni Puni Poemi, you should see Excel Saga first (if you haven't already). PPP is somewhat of a sequel to Excel Saga, even though they don't have much in common with each other (only one character, pretty much). Also, Excel Saga is a LOT better. It's really funny because it makes fun of all the common anime clich?s. It's my favorite series.

So, yeah, watch Excel Saga.

Vegetto · 11-07-2005, 10:59 PM

ive been thinking about checkin Excel saga out for ages

I almost bought a few DVDs of it

Mistatee · 11-07-2005, 11:22 PM

yeah excel saga is good, im not sure if id call it my favorite series, but then again comedy anime isn't my favorite.
