Halfway through Parasyte. Did end up going with the dub, and since it's not done on Toonami yet I've just been taking my time. Set my cable box to record episodes a while back so once I'm caught up to that point I can switch over to the bigger screen heh.
Have decided Erased will be the next show I tackle.

My video review:
EDIT: Finally mustered up the strength to finish Gungrave off and wow, those last 10 episodes were terrible. Not only did they completely character assassinate the only decent character in the show by making him do stuff that was out of his character (Bear), but they also gave him a terrible looking design to boot. In fact, all of the "Superior" designs were awful. I get that this is based off a video game, but not every design translates well from game to animation. The show as a whole was awful and I kind of wish I had stopped watching it after episode 1 because the pay off in the end was not worth it. Everything suffered prequel syndrome as everything that occurred was just going through the motions to get the characters where they are supposed to be rather than actually build them up. Lastly, they couldn't even make the battles in the last 10 episodes even remotely stylish, which is a shame since they had super human characters. It was all generic gun battles. I will never touch this show ever again and it is one of the worst animes I have watched in a long time. Last edited by Dr Kain; 03-16-2016 at 08:30 PM.. |

I've been looking through the anime that are starting up in the spring season, compared to my current 11 shows, spring is looking pretty light. AssClass is continuing into spring, from what I hear World Trigger may either be ending or going back to filler at the end of March, in which case I'll drop it again. Mercifully everything else is ending, which is fine by me. Rather mixed season.
As far as spring goes it's looking like I'm only watching Sakamoto, Terra Formars, and the new Trigger anime. Kinda eyeing Mayoiga and Kuma Miko but not sure yet. Twin Star Exorcists looks decent, but studio Pierrot has burned me far too many times. If it's gonna be another Tokyo Ghoul or worse, a Divine Gate, I want nothing to do with it. Some other shows look promising but there's little I feel like committing to watching. Was kinda interested in watching Ace Attorney, until I heard who they got to voice the main character, at which point my interest dropped to the negatives. Eh. Well, less shows means more free time. Winter has tired me out. A six series season sounds manageable. |

After completely writing it off without giving it a shot, I started watching One Piece earlier. I'm already addicted.

I'm still pretty early on. They just recruited Nami. I thought about reading the manga so many times, but I didn't feel like buying all of it and I hate reading manga online.

I haven't post in this thread in a while. So anime that I watch this month so far.
The Boy and the Beast - This movie was fantastic. I saw it when it came out in theaters a few weeks ago. Really good characters, amazing animation and I love the world that they created for this film. This movie made me want to watch more from Mamoru Hosoda. I only seen Summer Wars and the Digimon film that he work on. Grade: A Macross Frontier the Movie: The False Songstress and Macross Frontier: The Wings of Farewell - Both of alternate versions of the TV show and I only seen a few random episodes of the show. I really love these two movies and made me want to check out the full show. Both are awesome start to finish. I did got confused during some scenes of the movie. I would need to rewatch both again. I did like the first movie a bit more. Grade: B+ and Grade: B+ Phantom Quest Corp: I forgot that I watch this anime. Very funny and enjoyable anime. I wish it was longer since I really like the characters and story. This anime is like Buffy meets Ghostbusters. The visuals are great for a anime that is over 20 years old. The characters are very enjoyable and the anime has good laughs to offer. I do admit that they could have work the characters a bit better. I would have love to see the romantic relationship between Ayaka and Lieutenant Karino. Overall solid anime with some flaws. Grade: B

Need to get back watching Idolmaster, I guess this what happens when one episodes makes you stop watching and then other things get in the way so it takes you a while to get back.
Probably going to need other Idol anime after that as well.

I never seen much of the show. I saw them at a event hosted by a group of friends and I was going by what they told me.
