Ah.
TTGL came out right as I was starting to realize exactly what I liked and what I wanted in terms of a show, the point where I just didn't watch every little anime just because it was an anime, if you know what I mean.
I just felt dulled by it.

And GaoGaiGar did the drills a decade before them (This isn't a serious point, before you get angry. )

Both.
However, I'm willing to forgive Akira because it had to compress 6 volumes of a manga into a 2 hour movie.
TTGL just wasn't my thing.

but GaoGaiGar doesn't have as many drills

Come on man, if I can give it a second chance, surely you can.

Yeah. That was a nice time. Freed me from, like, 15 boring Shonen anime that, from what I could tell, I was only watching because they were anime.

It's not how many drills you have, but how you use them.
"But didn't GaoGaiGar rarely ever use the drills in a fight?"
Shut up.

Yeah...I could.

I made the mistake of trying to watch Highschool of the Dead as one of the first anime shows that I actually followed. Horrible mistake. And it seems that it screwed me up to the point of watching nothing but doki-doki fuwa-fuwa moeblob animu.

[losondro]

so far on episode 7 of Desert Punk. the anime is.... uh..... interesting.

I see. It does bother me when people watch anime for the sake of anime.

For example. The most recent anime I've watched and why:

AKB0048: Recommended to me by a friend.
Tiger & Bunny: Hearing good things about it; I decided to check it out, as it sounded interesting to me.
GaoGaiGar: Same thing as Tiger & Bunny
Macross Frontier, and just Macross in general: Crasis' ramblings on the Preorder 66 Podcast.
Persona 4: The Animation: I like the game.

[Starscreamer]

so I just started Attack on Titan...one intense show...

[SideswipePrime]

Macross episode 11:

Wow! The animation just went downhill in this episode. That aside it was very good. It was interesting to see the Zentradi interact, and trying to make sense of human culture. (Which, of course, eventually they do.)

Just finished Highschool of the Dead... Yeah, I don't care what other people say, this series is AWESOME!

And now, back to Star Driver!
