YES! Sailor Moon Crystal confirmed for Crunchyroll in Australia! I'm happy! :D

But it really is sad that so few countries are getting it on Crunchyroll. :(

Literally Thor would twirl his hammer around to reverse the flow of the tornado to stop it in it tracks, or to just shoot through the eye of the storm and take out Whirlwind.

Failing that, just send Cap through it as his shield can take on anything but really a bit of wind shouldn't have almost killed Iron Man, come on.

trust me i glad i have un block us to get stuff on USA crinchy roll due to UK not getting it so i cant lie in bed and watch a ep on my ipad mean i have to watch it on my ps3 or my dad xbox 360

Well my recent jump back into the medium I once worshiped continues as I start reading Gantz and continue to work on Sailor Moon and Evangelion.

ZZ Gundam episode 3

I see the bad guy in this episode went to the Maximillion Pegasus school of manliness. I was just waiting for him to say," Haman Karn, oohohoo!"

Judou isn't half bad with the Zeta when his enemies don't know how to do jack shit. And his sister looks like different character but I don't know who.

The comedy is starting to show up more but it hasn't gotten on my nerves yet.

Episode 4
Oh my god the clothes that Juadau and his friends are wearing are so 80s. Like, trying to be hip 80s, not dressed normally 80s like at the beginning of Zeta Gundam.

I felt like nothing was accomplished this episode. Just more Zeta and whatever that mobile suit fights are and the kids trying to protect it.

I'm starting to like Judau a little bit.

Man, this show treats Kamille like he's fucking nothing. When Fa and the shitty kids got Kamille a wheelchair the show didn't seem to give a shit. "Oh, don't mind the awesome protagionist of the last show, we had him brain damaged so we could write in a new ace pilot protagionist, even though we could have done it with Kamille on the team." No fuck you. Kamille was my favorite character in Zeta and they didn't have the balls to kill him at the end, so they neutered him. If you want to kill him then FUCKING KILL HIM. Good god this should have stayed as a second season of Zeta now that I'm thinking about it and angry that Kamille is doing jack shit.

Since I dropped Disk Wars I checked out the second Space Dandy episode and it was....like a bad parody of the first episode, honestly. I don't mind silliness, that was half the reason the first episode was so fun, but I can't stand when humour is forced into places it doesn't actually fit. And it's especially frustrating in a show that is as gorgeous as this, that it feels the need to undermine genuinely wonderful moments for the sake of cheap juvenile humour. I'll give it one more episode.

So is Gundam Build Fighters good? I might check it out after I finish Problem children are coming from another world, aren't they?.

Nope. It's far better than just "good" :D

I still need to finish that. :lol

Agreed, it's one of the few modern anime that live up to their hype and then some.

Yeah, Build Fighters is definitely good. Also the anime you are currently watching is good one too :thumb:.

So I am downloading the chibi vampire anime called karin in Japan for both manga and anime

Do you mean stuff with the last 3 or 4 years or from what on because people hhave used both in thier definition of "modern"

I got to meet Asuka while continuing to watch Evangelion. She is most definitely the c*** she is made out to be.

Her german is the most hilarious thing I have ever heard in my entire life :lol

Modern anime is practically the last ten years for me, I was only really an active anime watcher until I was about 15/16 where I'd burnt through large chunks of the "classics" and "popcorn titles" and that is what really bridged me to "popular" anime which usually resulted in painfully pretentious and usually downright awful series which eventually killed anime for me.

Probably the big three examples of recent times of that shit is Attack on Titan, Durarara!! and Bakemonogatari. The last two especially are just hipster garbage and the only merit is showing off how hipster you are that you actually sat through that nonsense.

That's why you gotta get on Gundam 00 man. Pretty good show made in the last 10 years.

You didn't like Attack on Titan? I haven't seen the full series yet but from what I have seen of like the first 4 or 5 episodes its good. Asides from the story itself, I don't see anyone could hate AoT because it was made in the best possible circumstances for a manga based show.

It's soul destroyingly boring. Argue semantics around adaptations, season endings and all the rest but that doesn't change the fact that for whole episodes nothing of any value happened - I couldn't give you exact numbers, and wouldn't want too but from what I remember you had maybe two to three full episodes worth of plot in the whole season, the rest was exposition dumps and painfully dragged out action that hoped basic shock value could take the weight. Maybe it would if I was 12 but pushing twenty three I require a little more stimulation.

It tried to be an atmospheric mood piece but was simultaneously much too juvenile and too damn slow to achieve anything other than sending me to sleep.

yea Attack on titan anime i dropped the subbed in ep 4 and dub in ep one just could not get in to it. the manga on the other hand i am really like and the fact that i love show it work better as a manga. so i am hoping the 2 anime film that retell first and second halfs of the anime do it for me

Modern anime is hard for me to get into, mostly because I find a lot of the animation crappy, character designs seem to be recycled, and not a lot of the stories seem interesting. The only modern anime that I really like that came out in a slightly recent time is Sword Art Online. A lot of what I watch is just the old stuff because that's what I grew up on. Anything from the 80's-2009/2010 is what I enjoy the most, though the later 2000's are a little few and far between in series.

Up through episode 6 of Gurren Lagann. I'm definitely enjoying it, but not as much as I expected to based on what several people I know said about it. So far, it hasn't felt like it's gone anywhere and episode 6 in particular was frustrating because it was basically an extended flashback. I've seen plenty of anime with flashback/clip show episodes, but this is probably the earliest one I've ever seen only six episodes in. I'm hoping it'll improve as it goes though, and I certainly don't dislike it. I was unsure about Steins;Gate at first as well, but it ended up as one of my favorites by the time it ended.

Totally agree. I really wanted to like AoT, as I think it has a good sense of atmosphere and the overall plot is quite intriguing. Unfortunately, the pacing was just far too slow, with long gaps of very little happening between short bursts of significant plot development. I also didn't really find any of the characters that interesting, with the exception of Erwin whom I liked. Again, I really wanted to like it and I think the story has great potential, but the problems outweigh the positives for me in this case, unfortunately.

So Asuka continues to make me want to jump into the TV, put a gun to her head, and pull the trigger.

You don't like Asuka? :(

I don't like Asuka. I fucking despise her.

You like Rei at least... right? :o

Hey, that's the same way I feel about Rosamia from Zeta Gundam.

Thank god they cut her out of the New Translation movies.

Rei I do like. Shinji's alright too and Misato's my favorite. Asuka on the other hand, words can not begin to describe how much I hate her.

So long as you like Rei I'm alright. :lol

Too much hype can be a bad thing, and sadly Gurren Lagann is one of those shows that does suffer from overhype.

You watched the censored/edited TV version of the episode then. The proper uncensored version isn't a clip episode.

I don't like Rei. :I

This wasn't technically a clip episode either, looking back on my post I shouldn't have referred to it as that. What I intended to get across was that I felt like there was too much recap. The first several minutes are just a Simon and Kamina voiceover with a summary of the last episode, and then towards the middle it happens again when they talk about their past memories and repeats scenes from the first few episodes. I'd have less of a problem with it if it came later in the series, but the fact that I just watched all of that a few episodes before made it feel especially repetitive.

Again, it wasn't technically a clip episode since the bathhouse story was still there, but it felt like one to me with the overly long recap scenes.

Yes but, like I said, that isn't the intended version of the episode. For whatever reason the episode was censored (no idea why, because it honestly isn't that bad) and the cut portions were filled with segments from the previous episodes.

You need to watch the version titled "There are Some Things I Just Have to See!!", not "Sit in the Hot Tub 'Till You're Sick!!"

So watched a comedy yesterday that I finished today due to it being only 12 episodes called Chu-Bra very funny seirses about a female underwater obssest girl. It was really funny. I have now started watching bodashues space pirates.

Not that Im sure anyone else will care, but I've begun my months long journey to re-watch every episode, movie, & special in chronological order for Dragonball, Dragonball Z, & Dragonball GT.

I've waited many years but I think knowing that 8 months from now my free time will disappear has spurred me to do it. I know it will take me some months to watch them all, but I know once my baby's here I won't have any free time at all :lol

You are a braver man then I Den-O, going through all of those episodes, braving filler episode after filler episode :lol

ZZ Gundam episode 5

Could we tone down on the comedy a tad please?

Are we doing this shit again? The clumsy Gundam vs Grunt suit first fight thing again. We dod this for like 3 episodes and now we're doing it again. At this rate we probably won't leave the Colony until episode 10.

Fa piloting the Zeta Gundam was cool. But again, NO FUCKING KAMILLE.

I watched the Blu-ray version of this episode and damn does it look clean. But at the same time, it dates the animation a lot more.

Episode 6
Finally a badass fight! And plot progression!

That wine guy was the perfect way to integrate comedy into this episode. It didn't make the villains or the heroes seem incompetent this time around yet added to the story of the colony. Good job Tomino.

You ghotta be fucking kidding me. These subs call Kamille "Camille Vidan". Are you fucking kidding me?

I'm going to be honest, when it aired I only saw Death Note up until the part where he lost him memory. I missed some episodes because I was busy or something and never came back to it. It just showed up on Netflix earlier this month so I powered through it again. I felt the back half was just boring (after L died) and the ending was terrible. It's still fairly popular, correct? Am I missing something?

A part of me... A small, small part... still wants to go back and finish Dragonball (I don' think I ever quite did) and watch all of the DBZ movies I've skipped. Maybe some day. For now, I'm not as crazy as you. :p

ZZ Gundam episode 7

Fucking Chickens man. And nice Bandai logo on the crates there.

I see we found a third of the ZZ Gundam. And a beauty of a woman to go with it.
