I hate the Silent Mobius movies. They pretty much butchered the story into a mess. The TV version I loved, but it was a shame they gave it its own middle finger ending. I wanted to pick up the manga, but the company that was releasing it went under before even getting to the halfway point.
Oh, we FINALLY sat down to watch the Cowboy Bebop BLu-Rays I got when the set came out like two years ago. Good god it has been a long time since I have watched this show and I really need to start getting better at watching the things I have bought more often, especially when it comes out anime. This show is so damn amazing and we finished the first disc (so the first 9 episodes) which didn't have a single bad episode on it. I really can't wait to watch the next disc though because it features two of top three favorite episodes. All of the characters are great, the music rocks, the animation looks superior to most of the shows that were coming out at the time, and of course the episode plots are just all around fun. Oh, and the remastering job Funimation did is also outstanding. |

We finished Cowboy Bebop today. I know I'm repeating myself, but I really need to get back into watching this show more often. It is amazing. The ending is so perfect and badass. One of the best anime endings ever. There's only one episode that I don't really care for, but even that one isn't bad, it's just not that interesting to me (Wild Horses). With that said, my top favorite episodes are Toys in the Attic, Pierre Le Fou, Mushroom Samba, Cowboy Funk, and Speak Like a Child. Good god is Spike and Jet's search for a Betamax hilarious, especially when they end up retrieving a VHS player instead. I give this show a perfect 10/10 stars and if you are an anime fan who has never seen this show, you are doing yourself a complete disservice.

Started Kabukibu and Atom the Beginning.
Kabukibu is a school drama/comedy about a kabuki nerd trying to start his own kabuki theater club. Oh and CLAMP did the character designs. Atom the Beginning is about the two scientists from the manga/anime and an early version of Atom or Astro Boy for those recognize him with that name. It seems like a prequel+re-imagining of the classic from the looks of it.

So we watched the first 10 episodes of Space Dandy. This show is a lot better being marathoned than it was when I was watching it once a week on CN. Also, I never realized I never saw the racing epsiode and my god, that was one fucking awesome episode! Probably my favorite episode thus far (followed by the zombie one). The plant episode was quite enjoyable too. Oh, and I'm not sure how I missed this the first time through, but THAT WAS THE FRIDGE FROM TOYS IN THE ATTIC!!!!! Anyway, we'll watch more next week.

I'm at Episode 5 on Tokyo Ghoul and does this show get any better? The show feels like a cliche series to me similar formula to so many others titles like Parasyte, Devilman, 3x3 Eyes and Ajin: Demi-Human. The main character is unlikeable and the supporting cast feels weak in my opinion. The animation is pretty good at times, but everything about this show sucks if you ask me. So why is this show popular?

People tell me that it gets better when Kaneki has stopped being such a whine baby. However the show is 13 episodes long and I'm at episode 5 which is nearly half way done. So far, the show has done nothing for me and people will say "Just read the manga". If I didn't like the show, I doubt I will like the source material much better.
I will the show another three more episodes before I drop it. Ajin: Demi-Human came out around the same time as Tokyo Ghoul and that series was much better in my opinion. It's a shame that the US modern anime & manga fandom is not talking about it as much compare to Tokyo Ghoul, My Hero Academia, Attack on Titan, Fairy Tail or whatever is popular on Cruchy Roll.

We watched episodes 11-19 of Space Dandy today. They were pretty good, especially episodes 14 and 15, which were fantastic. I loved seeing a multiverse of the trio and done in different art styles. Although, the emo Dandy was hysterical. I wish they had shown us how the show reverted back to that version, but that would require there being continuity.
Episode 15 was friggin phenomenal. Probably my favorite episode of the entire series thus far. That Skull Kid was creepily badass. I loved the music that was playing when Dandy went into his backyard to discover the victims. Getting to learn a bit about Honey was great too. I could have done without the annoying laugh track though. Regardless, the fact that she made Gel's machine break down when they tried to scan her brain and that she came up with her own capture plot was great. Lastly, is it just me, or does the animation seem different from the first season? I get the different animation for the multiverse episode, but even the ones with the talking fish and the fishing episodes were different. On the other hand, I could have done with the pointless musical episode. Well next Saturday we plan to finish the show. I hope the ending is worth it. |
