Not really into Anime like some people.

I watched one of the series of DBZ on Cartoon Network (The Cell One) and it was fairly cool.

I\'ve also watched Tenchi Universe (Tenchi TV) and some other bits and bobs here and there. All seems good stuff.

I\'ve only seen a little bit of that show..... And to me, it looks like Tenchi is GAY! He has all those girls that love him.... And he avoids them.... GAY GAY GAY...:laughing:

I watch a little bit of everything on occasion. I prefer the more adult oriented stuff though, like Wicked City and the likes.

Post by: Sublimesjg on December 27, 2001, 11:03:36 AM
heh wicked  city is very adult orientated if you ask me

i enjoy almost all anime - from the ridicuosly cute ones like Photon to the Grusome and gory like Fist of the North Star

anime is a very addicting and expensive habit at that

Post by: luckee on December 27, 2001, 11:24:19 AM
jeezz..how can I forget fist of the north??? :D

yup..anime can get quite exspensive, espescially when one starts importing dvd\'s, but its just like my gaming and car habit I guess.

I was once really into all the Manga movies (Akira Rules) but I kinda faded away from them. Still some of them are kick ass.

I used to like Dragonball Z so much a while back. But now i\'m into Rurouni Kenshin!!! This is the best anime out there everyone, no doubt about it!

Dont get me wrong sublime... Ninja Scroll is great. Its just some people(no one here that I know of) take the movie way to far, Like its the ONLY good anime out there.
Title: anime
Post by: SmallLady on December 29, 2001, 02:10:17 AM
Ninja Scroll was ok, entertaining in its own way.

It was pretty dumb in places. Ok very dumb. Some anime cliches.

*spoiler alert*........

It was so stupid when the guy had to sleep with the ninja to cure the poisoning. Ridiculous.

And I found it weird that the guy carried his sword on his back. I\'ve never seen anyone do that in movies or books etc... But maybe someone did that. Seems impractical.

I hated Akira, well hate is such a strong word, it just was not for me.

Sailor Moon rules ^_^

DBZ is to anime like Spam is to meat, pointless and nasty.

If you want good action oriented anime, you watch Rurouni Kenshin.  There\'s PLENTY of action in their movies and the series along with lots of great comedy as well.  Additionaly, each episode has meaning, not the usual DBZ horse manuer they call an episode that goes something like this:

"Hraarrrrgggg!!!  I will be the most powerful ever by powering up for a long time by grunting and!   HUWARRRGGGGG!!!"

"No, I willl be more powerful with an even louder grunt and an even manlier stance!  HUWARRGGGGGGGGG!!!!"

*54 tons of rocks chatter into smitherines*

"Next time on Dragonball Z... they power up some more while other people watch from far away and make hilarious comments while going utterly insane... Tune in Next week."

What a load of crap.  I\'m so sick of that show.  Goku vs Frieza, the most drawn out 5-minute battle I have ever seen.

ROFLMAO! :laughing:

I\'m not into anime very much but most of my friends are. They also watch Hentai occasionally. (Hentai is very very weird...)

They have the most idiotic comments ever like, "You cannot defeat my perverted powers!"

Alas, it\'s still entertaining.

Hrm?  Hentai?  It\'s just like porn, but only with drawings.  It\'s the same cheesy dialogue and the same cheesy situations, just sometimes with tentacles and girls who enjoy it.  It\'s just strange.  However, some of it is pretty funny...

About the most suggestive picture I could find without breaking the TOS agreement on the site.  Enjoy it people.  LOL

Surely hentai is weird, the whole country is very very weird when it comes to things like these.

I am an avid reader of an hentai adult comic on the net...very VERY funny but I won\'t post a link due to the adult oriented images on the site.

Heh heh I always think it\'s funny when someone posts something, and they they come back later and say "I didn\'t mean for the discussion to turn out like this.  Please only post if you agree with me."  That gets a BIG one of these.... :rolleyes:

BTW:  Adult anime/manga rules.  Like Spunky Knight.  Some of it is really stupid like La Blue Girl.  PM me your link n0-0ne!

yes, by the japanese law it is not allowed to show penetration  with real humans, so they use other alternatives like alien tentacles

there was also game that featured this, wasn\'t it D2 for DC?

Yes, that is correct.

D2 was very surprising.
It\'s the only game I know of that had nudity in it.

Ghost In The Shell had a cliffhanger ending.

**Spoiler Ending**









What happened afterwards when she turned into a kid?

Supposedly, section 8 (9?) rebuilt her body and put her back on the job.

Oh. I thought she was going to just keep living as a child and do whatever or something.

Atleast now I know what truly happened. :)

Damn Ryu, I thought that after the "puppet master" and agent Kusinagi(sp) merged to form a new conscience in the body of a small girl, that director Mamoru Oshii was trying to explore the grand questions: What does it mean to be human and what is life anyway? If what you say is all that happened, then geez what a rip.
Title: anime
Post by: Ryu on January 07, 2002, 12:24:19 AM
Well, it\'s possible that motoko did go off to explore that consciousness, there was no sequel to what happened, but for the film to go on, supposedly, either a new version was built of her and she still exists as a new type of lifeform, or she just went back to her job.  I figure after she learned all the stuff she wanted to learn, she went back to her job and resumed her duties.

Anyone watch the series Noir?

i like it - took me a while but it was pretty cool i had a friend tell me about it and im glad she did
Title: anime
Post by: kimathi on January 07, 2002, 12:42:07 AM
This got me to thinkin\', there really should have been a sequel. Oshii-san just left you hanging. Maybe he wants us to form our own conclusions as to what happened after the story.

EDIT: Princess Mononoke was also good. I didn\'t think I would like it when I first viewed the dvd case, but I\'m glad I rented it. The story was great. It\'s definately going in the personal collection.

Historical fact:

There was a game, Cluster\'s Revenge or something for the Atari , where the goal was to make it to the end of the level and have sexual intercourse with a female Indian who wa tied to a post.

At the end of an early Genesis game, Mystic Defender, the princess is nude - if I remeber correctly.

Naughty Dog\'s Genesis game,"Rings Of Power" had a code so that you could change the title screen icon (Naughty Dog logo) to a nude blonde female.

;)

PM that link, No-One!

P.S - Dragon Ball Z sucks. Long live decent anime like Lain, Fushi Yugi, Twilight of the Dark Master and of course Akira!
