Anime!

It's sort of like Fist of the North Star, except every character strikes a fabulous pose and always says something awesome. It also has lot of rock music references. Great characters and story too. Watching it made me realize I will never become as much as a man as some of these characters.

Sailor Moon, Ao Haru Ride, and Free! I'm caught up with Sailor Moon, but I can't be bothered with the other two because I'm lazy.

Idunno, free is on that list of yours and I'd rather not dive into that one.

I might (might) try Tokyo Ghoul (MIGHT), but I'm still on my post-Hyouka slump.



Any other good animes going on right now that I should check out? Already watching Aldnoah.

ha ha ha very funny thunder, i never even recommended free to you (because you're too boring for it)!!! i said tokyo ghoul, zankyou no terror, and haikyuu. jjba too but not right now, you gotta get one of my top three first!!!!!

get them might off, really, give ep 1 a try, if you're not curious after watching that, then idk :( ill stop pestering u

zankyou no terror is good too, it's about bombs // terrorizing tokyo i guess and the story is pretty good so far (i honestly have no idea what's gonna happen on here since i haven't read the manga and can't find the manga so i'm just here waiting for the next ep being clueless). It took me a while to get over hyouka, actually, I'm still not over it tbh.

and haikyuu.. i'm not even gnna start since this is getting long already..

Others that are ongoing right now are jjba (ofc), space dandy (2), tokyo esp, sao ii (which i'm kinda wanting to drop...), and there's also glasslip but it's slice of life and i remember you don't really like that?, free, and ill stop because you think im boring and youre boring and youre not even gnna bother >:[
 
I'm thinking of dropping ggo.

I'm only watching it because I'm curious, but it's really not that good.
 
I've watched so much anime in the past several weeks. It has really gone up lately because I got a 30 day trial for Crunchyroll (I never pay for a subscription, I either watch with the free service or use a trial when I have one) because of no commercials.

I don't like watching anime that isn't complete for the most part, so anything airing now I'm not watching.

Stuff I recently finished:
Magical Warfare - Very disappointing. It seemed like it might be a action fantasy show, and it kinda is, but too much focus on the love triangle. Not recommended.

The World is Still Beautiful - Hadn't seen a traditional shoujo show in a while so felt in the mood. This was pretty good and I think more people need to see it.

Love Live - Nothing special, but was a fun watch. I actually liked this way, way more than The Idolm@ster anime, and I'm a big im@s fan (game and music wise).

Fantasista Doll - I thought this was going to be like Angelic Layer. No. It wasn't. It shoves the friendship theme down your throat too much. Disappointing. Good character designs, great set-up potential, fell flat.

What I'm watching now:
Rozen Maiden Zur?ckspulen - Pretty animation but meh story. Kirakishou is too much of evil bad guy with no other personality. I really liked the original Rozen Maiden show better. At this point I'm going to finish it, but I don't expect much.

What I'm going to watch next:
Log Horizon - A guy at work thinks this is "best of genre" for the online game shows, even better than SAO. I'm curious.

Hajime no Ippo: Rising - Because I'm a fan of this series in general. Yes, I've seen all of the previous stuff. I actually own the original season of Ippo on DVD. It's too bad New Challenger (season 2) and Rising (season 3) have pretty much no chance of being released in the US on DVD.

Same! Once the Alfheim arc started, I was struggling to get through the anime.

Same here. I didn't like ALO at all.


CONTAINS SPOILER
Reasons: his egoistic sister, who's extremely annoying, becomes a main protagonist. Leafa, who was also boring, turned out to be her. ALO fights weren't interesting. The "story" in ALO was boring. I didn't like the fairy setting either. The main antagonist turned out to be some weird hentai.
Also, something completely stupid is happening: The father allows that man to marry his daughter who's still 17 [still going to school] and unconscious in hospital. It's also obvious that Asuna didn't love that man. So, which kind of father would do this? Also, if the man would have married her and raped her ingame, what now? Keeping her in the cage in ALO, continuing with her being unconscious, maybe starting to rape her in the hospital? There was also that brainwashing thingy...? Well, he wanted to brainwash Asuna, so that she would love him, I think. But still, this kind of story is so weird.
Seriously. SAO would have been 100 times better if they showed more of the happening in SAO and focused there, ALO shouldn't even exist... but this is my opinion.

Ooh, I love anime. ^.^ Manga too -- actually, I like manga quite a bit more than anime.

My all-time favorite series will always be Sailor Moon -- I cannot even begin to describe how ecstatic I am about Sailor Moon Crystal. Despite its faults, I've been hoping for YEARS that they would remake the anime closer to the manga, and now they finally are! I hope they decide to do the full series and not just the first arc, though.

Some other series I enjoy are Puella Magi Madoka Magica, Death Note, Watamote (I am so not typing the entire name here), Karin/Chibi Vampire, and Yotsuba&! :)

Just started death note this morning and I'm now on episode 4. Really enjoying it so far!

I'm on the second to the last episode of Death Note and I miss the first half :~: It's still pretty high up there though, definitely a classic.

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who thinks the same way about the fairy dance arc. it was so beyond pointless I felt like I suffered through 10 episodes of idiocy. I like to pretend it never happened. Asuna was such an amazing female character in SAO, so yes, let's lock her up in a cage and bring in a new (unbearable) female character for the sake of harem. I liked this last episode of GGO but I'm still really skeptical about this series after what happened in season 1.

My thoughts exactly.
 
The first half of sao wasn't even good. It was just like
*decent plot for two episodes*
Klein: Kirito, I love you!
Sachi: Kitito, I love you!
Asuna: Kiritio, I hate you!
Silica: Kirito, I love you! *random underwear scene*
Lisbeth: Kirito, I love you!
Asuna: Kirito, I love you! *random underwear scene*
Yui: Kirito, I love you!
Sugu: Kirito, I love you! *random underwear scene*

Your rendition is sadly accurate. XD
 
I'm sorry, but do you guys even appreciate how hard it is write good drama? It's not easy, you know, and the first season of SaO was about Kirito's internal grieving and coming of age process whilst overcoming his PTSD. Not how many chicks he friendzoned.

Maybe that type of drama just isn't their cup of tea. I know that they're certainly not alone in their feelings for SAO, though. I've heard these same complaints from a lot of people who have watched it.
