I'm an uber-fan of Vehicle Voltron!
Anime sucks the sweat from a dead homeless persons ass. It's been empirically proven in rigourus scientific tests where 100 anime fans were all found to prefer fucking their tubesox to a real live woman.
All Anime is garbage.
In fact, come the revolution, owning even ONE (1) Anime DVD gets you mandatory sterilization (redundant, I know, but you can't be too careful), and a trip to the camps.
In the meantime, you might consider quitting anime and try, you know, finding a girlfriend.
YOU WANNA SEE MY POKEMANZ?
I was thinking the latter, actually.
What with the re-emergence of the Wisdom Cube.
I think it's The Adversary. :D
Whoever that happens to be today.
Jeez Roger, can't people have hobbies?
This thread needs more tentacle rape. And/or pics.
OMFG POKEMON GOTTA CATCH THEM ALL FTW!!!!!!11111111

All Anime is garbage.
no.
also:
NARUTO sucks
INUYASHA sux
YU-GI-OH! sucks
POKEMON sux and lobotomizes
TENCHI MUYO is better then the average soap opera, but sucks.
the only good anime is the ones lacking in all japanees characteristics such as: O.O'
of the 300 or so different things I have seen I have found two shows which are watchable, and two films that are nice and wholesome for the kids.
the films are princess mononoke and spirited away.
the reason they are good: They imitate western films.
pretty much all other anime falls under the following:
-Perverted.
-pedophilia (I dont give a fuck if the little girl getting raped by the tentacle is a four thousand year old robot its still SICK)
-cheesy/cliched to the point of suicide.
-so mistranslated and incomprehensible that it sounds like reverse readings of the bible.
-gawdy and horrible to look at.
-written by an autistic rapist with dyslexia.
-a merchandising scam.
welcome troll alt. this place has been so lacking in them.
I've decided not to waste any more STFU pics on this one.

Yes.
It's all total bullshit, badly drawn, and aimed at 40 year old jackoffs that want to fuck Catholic schoolgirls of age 13 or so.
The plots are non-existant, the drawing style is stupid as fuck, and anyone who watches them should just go ahead and saw their dick off, because they're NEVER going to use it for anything more than a bell-rope.
I haven't seen a decent anime that came out in the past 5 years, Faust. And by decent, I mean that I could watch for 2 minutes without turning it off and wishing for Sailor Moon reruns again.

gantz, if you can handle gore, its characters are whiny, but more realistic then most shit out there, also pretty well written if you can get past the voyeurism of the gore/sex.

It is garbage and fail
as a concept. It is cartoons drawn FOR NO OTHER REASON than to allow 40 YEAR OLDS to look at THE UNDERWEAR OF YOUNG TEENS as they run.
There's no story, the action is all the same, and the art sucks my grampa's balls.
One of my band-mates was hit by the first wave of virulent Pokemania during puberty, and he never managed to get rid of it since then. Nowadays, Nintendo Wii sucks out most of his lifeblood, the rest is consumed by obscenity.
Actually, he's incredibly funny, because although his intellect comes close to genius, his main way of communication consists of insulting(not mean-spirited, though) virtually everyone and telling the dirtiest jokes you can imagine. In his case, vivid imagination is your worst enemy; the part of my brain that used to make me blush and say "Gosh!" was reduced to scar tissue long ago.
...I wonder...if anime is that appalling and abominable, why isn't it a vital component of HIMEOBSery?

the concept is just any film made in animated form, its the execution and the fact that most is made by perverts that make it suck.
panty shots and the perv side make up most of it. there are exceptions.
and they suck too.
Akira was alright.
Akira was about the only anime movie I ever liked.
I will watch Full Metal Alchemist if I am extremely bored and nothing else is on.
But I really just watch The Daily Show/Colbert, Real Time with Bill Maher and the History/Science/News Channel types....FreespeechTV is good sometimes as well. I know, I know...too much info
Akira is different.

for fuck sake. thats what I mean by the exceptions.
check out spirited away or princess mononoke, they are nice wholesome films and enjoyable too.
princess mononoke sucked rancid goat balls.
my specialty.
ECH,
thought you knew
I liked ghost in the shell.
*wracking my brain trying to think of others*
ooh I liked Metropolis, but only 'cause it had a really cool soundtrack and I'm a huge fan of the original fritz lang film.
hmmmmm
The Simpsons.
You may not consider it Anime, but it is animated in Korea. as is everything else.
Metropolis was fucking boring. I don't care what people say about Tesuka. Mononoke was great in the theatres because I got to hear countless parents bitch that cartoons shouldn't be violent and that it wasn't like Pokemon. :lulz:
I like practically anything from Yoshitoshi Abe and Satoshi Kon and I don't care what any of you fuckers think.

GITS stuff is alright, same with FLCL.
Metropolis sucked, 99.9% of anime is complete shit.
FLCL saved Gainax. It's quite teh fun. :mrgreen:

fixed. its not like I watch anime exclusively, I love films, its my vice, I like westerns, a lot are shit, I like sci fi, a lot is shit, I like film noir, not much is shit, and I like some anime, which is mostly shit.
Still not enough tentacles!
I watched a manga once which I liked, but I cannot remember what it is, or why I liked it, so the point is moot.
Anime suxx0rs.
~~~~Srsly
Anime IS mostly shit. Just because I draw it doesn't mean I really like it. Again, capitalization. As long as I can make money off of drawing anime-esque half-naked WoW characters, my pockets will stay lined comfortably at the expense of fat smelly men at conventions.

Anything with exploding heads is win.
Well its either exploding heads or tentacles eh?
Okay, Fist of the Northstar is fucking awesome.
new or old? I have a grand of the colleges money to blow on dvds for them, so I got the first disc of the new series was... ok. has a very eighties homoeroticism feel to it.

oh and for non pervy non action non cliche story driven anime watch death note.
Dead Leaves (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_Leaves)
A guy with a TV for a head, and a chick break out of some moon prison with the help of some dude with a gigantic drill for a penis. Enough said. For, or against anime, I'm not sure.

1. favourite = whatever has the most tentacles. which probably means i should watch "legend of the overfiend" some time, i remember the title cause i heard it has the most tentacles EVAR
2. i like princess monononononake, spirited away and akira (in that order), other anime movies i've seen are definitely worse
3. anime series suck. all of them. i watched a few, cause the pilots and first eps were interesting, but after that it's always just more of the same, only more boring and drawn out longer. when i realized this is a waste of time, i gave up on anime.
4. i've heard rumours that HIMEOBS has a stash of horrible gory manga pics (called "guro"?) on one of their orbital storages but i don't think they used it anywhere yet.

death note isn't bad.
i'm not gonna bother
they always (sometimes) start out interesting, and then quickly turn into, what could be called "cock and repost"
maybe this one is the one exception that will stay interesting for ever and ever and all the seasons that will continuously keep on being made one after another, but nah :)
no its gonna be a 24 episode then finished. and its tense and full of plot twists up until episode 12, then three crap episodes, then good again.
its worth giving it a look anyway.

except that one anime with the two girls who are assassins but one lost her memory and there's this music box with a freaky melody all the time. i know that one's finished cause my gf has got the dvd box, but sadly, it's boring as fuck.

its worth giving it a look anyway.
WHAT?? ANIME THAT'S FINISHED!!
UNPOSSIBLE!
:)
except that one anime with the two girls who are assassins but one lost her memory and there's this music box with a freaky melody all the time. i know that one's finished cause my gf has got the dvd box, but sadly, it's boring as fuck.

why was this thread allowed to live?
Roger you are just encouraging them.
And on topic.
I have NEVER watched an anime that I liked. And anyone willing to watch enough anime to say that only 99% of it sucks has some really serious issues.
It was allowed to live because we don't close threads just because they suck and are full of fail (anime, in this case).
Quote from: faust on April 09, 2007, 09:31:14 PM
the concept is just any film made in animated form, its the execution and the fact that most is made by perverts that make it suck.
panty shots and the perv side make up most of it. there are exceptions.
Even if all anime was written by Tolstoy and drawn by Michelangelo, it would still suck camel balls.

I was suckered into watching that by a GF years ago, to show me that "not all anime sucks". It did. But so did she. So I win. Now shut up, all of you.
Wait, it has an ending? I watched it late at night and just fell asleep.

If you see an anime this year, I recommend "Paprika".
I just watched it... Wow. You should probably go rent it immediately.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0851578/ (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0851578/)
It feels really hard to follow in the beginning, but once it gets you used to where it's going the ride is intense.
I am, to my horror, watching an anime subbed as it is aired in japan. Moyashimon, also known as Tales of Agriculture, is about a group of university students at an agricultural university in Tokyo, and one of them, the main character, has the ability to see microorganisms with the naked eye (they look like little cartoony characters to him) and also talk to them. Its supposed to be educational, and its incredibly biogeek bent. Right up my alley, actually. Its one of the most hilarious things I've seen in a while.
But then, I'm kinky like that.
Wholly Archaeology, Bat Man!
Actually, now that I think about it, Desert Punk is rather full of win, compared to any other anime in existence.
Other than that, I'm currently watching Metalocalypse, which is probably the best cartoony thing ever done.

Fun trivia--there is only one person in all of Providence named Angela!
well, there's only, like, 47 people in Rhode Island that aren't either RISD or J&W students (who aren't really people anyway), so it's plausible.
If you throw in Brown students, then I suppose you've got a point there.

yeah, I went to make a facebook account, and you know what?
FUCK facebook.
I told you.
In sheer intrusiveness into your friends lives, it beats Myspace hands down. Did you know they intended to use your purchases made to advertise to your friends? So, to use a real life example, if you bought an engagement ring from a certain jewellers with a Facebook profile, and your intended fiance was on your friends list, then Facebook would tell her and all your friends what you just did.
They also intended to use peoples pictures without their permisson to also advertise to their friends, but apparently it broke some silly laws stateside, so it got dropped.

what i really can't imagine is that, they in fact had this scenario running live for a short time, didn't they?
how on earth would they think up something like this and then *not* consider the possible scenario of surprise gifts?
This is why I like to keep a minimalist facebook profile.
Admittedly, not as minimalist as Cain (I salute you, sir!) but fairly minimalist. And, of course, stay away from the damn applications! They're mostly just there to farm information.
I am watching Cardcaptor Sakura.
It took a lot of persuading to get me to do so, but now I kind of like it.
I'm watching a children's cartoon.

Akira, Ninja Scroll, Fist of the North Star (the movie, not the stupid series).
Mostly everything made after DBZ became popular in Amerricurr is absolutely terrible, as it was made geared towards getting American kids to buy toys and video-games.

Akira,

There is no such thing as good anime. Period.
Death Note swung between extremely entertaining (the convoluted plotting) and entirely narmful (http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Narm) (the infamous potato chip scene)
I forgot how Akira ended :?
But afaik the graphics in the second half and a bit before the ending were pretty awesome.
I voted for Yu-Gi-OH! (the original series, at least). I loved that show when I was younger. The television series didn't do the manga justice though. While the entire series wasn't the most "adult" manga out there, it was definitely a lot more mature and darker than the series. For example, the "Shadow Realm" of the series didn't exist in the manga. In the television series, where a character would enter the "Shadow Realm," he'd actually be killed in the manga. Or worse. For example, in the television show, one of the characters (Marik) sent his father to the Shadow Realm. But in the manga the character skinned the tattoo off of his father's back. The same character (Marik), in the anime, had tattoos on his back. But in the manga, his father had taken a knife and carved the symbols into his back. Also, the "main" character (Yami Yugi) and the monsters were a lot darker/sinister/heartless in the manga. Ah, the memories, haha.
I'ma go with Bo-bobo-bo-bo-bobo, and Perfect Hair Forever.
I should really watch bobobobobobobo again, some time. It was so ridiculous, I couldn't keep up. Can you get it from regular torrent sites? If so, what's the proper amount of bo's? :)
Wikipedia says 7 Bo's. ("Bobobo-bo Bo-bobo")
There's a torrent on Pirate Bay that has all 76 episodes (13 GB).
Also, Perfect Hair Forever is on AdultSwim.com.
thx
Perfect Hair Forever for the motherfucking win!

Well, I don't know where or how it was aired in the States, but I watched the Voltron series on a New Brunswick CBC affiliate. They would alternate back and forth. They'd go through the Lion series, then air the Vehicle series, rinse, repeat, etc.
But as much as I liked Voltron, my favorite as a kid was Battle of the Planets/G-Force. Which aired on the New Brunswick CTV affiliate. Thank goodness for Canadian TV.

There is no such thing as good anime. Period.
The graphic novel was vastly superior, ending included. It's difficult to fit six HUGE volumes into two and a half hours.
What made the movie great was the production value of the whole thing. hundreds of hand painted cells per second. Fantastic animation that, IMO, has never been matched. And all without computers, to boot.
I def suggest the graphic novel, though. It's waaaaaay better than the movie.
FLCL was pretty good, but I couldn't watch it a second time. I can still watch episodes of Ghost in the Shell, and Paranoia Agent.
Last thing I watched was The girl who leapt through time. It was pretty charming even if the ending is poor.

If it wasn't for anime, there would be a lot more cinema like this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8vMKN1tYknE). I don't know if that's a good thing or a bad thing.
I rather liked Cowboy Bebop.
The problem with a lot of anime (or it might just be popular anime) is that the main character is a well intentioned idiot.
If there is something more important than producing giant ridable bunnies that biotechnology should accomplish, that's pokemons.
The problem is that most anime lacks tentacle-nose-hair-whips.

There's even a part after the rebels finally overthrow the oppressive Beastmen where you can see how poorly their newly-established government functions. Really, one character keeps the entire thing afloat, and he almost ends up killing off a sizable portion of the population to keep the rest of the society alive.

I fucking hate Crayon Shin-Chan. I never had the patience for it. Again, something else I saw waaaaaaaay before it came out stateside.
Recent anime has devalued the old fandom. I used to have to order VHS tape fansubs from a black and white flyer I picked up at Jacon, now you can just watch it on the internet. I remember when Anime Nation was a hole-in-the-wall warehouse in Clearwater that I had to beg my dad to drive me to on a Saturday afternoon when I was 16 years old, not a large operation out of Tampa. (I also remember the retail store they had for a few months in St. Petersburg, too.)
Anime used to be that thing I watched that made everyone in high school think I was fucking WEIRD. I have portfolios of bad sketches I did from 1998. Now I just capitalize off of it, and as of my last comic con, I think I'm finally going back to western style art and beating the shit out of kids in masquerades on the master level wearing costumes from stuff they've never heard of because I'm mean.
I can't stand going to Otakon and dealing with 22,000 fat brats bitching that they don't want to spend $5 on a print because I use colored pencil and not Photoshop to color while spending 3 days underground in a goddamn cavern of a convention center in one of the grossest cities of the United States.
The reason I still do Anime Boston is because I'm loyal to the staff and it's my longest running convention appearance to date. Other than that, most anime cons can screw. Bakuretsu was fun up in Vermont, but it was rather juvenile. I made good money though and I wouldn't mind checking it out again when New York Comic Con decides to go back to February where it belongs and not allowing NY Anime Festival to hang onto it's coattails to save it.
I just can't fucking stand the bullshit anymore. What was fun when I was 18 is just annoying at 28. I still have my anime and manga that I LOVE, but I just can't get myself back into the swing of it. It's safe to say that it's finally time to grow up and move on.

And on that note, I give you Moyashimon aka Tales of Agriculture.
(http://www.animaxis.com/images/news_images/20070516moyashimon.jpg)
Imagine this, will you: What is the coolest power you could ever think of? Lazer eyes? Flight? Superstrength?
No.
If you're a biogeek like me, you'd kill for the ABILITY TO COMMUNICATE WITH MICROORGANISMS. Thus the plot of Moyashimon.
Moyasimon follows the life of Tadayasu Sawaki, a first-year college student at an agricultural university, who has the unique ability to see and communicate with micro-organisms and bacteria. Additionally, these organisms look much different to him, and much larger, than what can be seen under a microscope by normal people. This ability has brought him a bit of fame as when he entered the university, Tadayasu discovered that one of the professors there, Keizō Itsuki, already knew about his gift via Tadayasu's grandfather. Professor Itsuki's coworker Haruka Hasegawa has trouble believing what Tadayasu claims at first, but later comes to accept it. Tadayasu enters the university with his good friend Kei Yūki whose family runs a sake brewery. (http://wikipedia)
The cast includes the main character that can talk with bacteria, his best friend a crossdressing goth lolita, his advisor, a fermentologist adicted to the rancid smells of fermentation, the advisor's postgrad student who constantly dresses like a dominatrix, two other grad students who are the epitome of lazy dirty grad students everywhere, a germophobe neatfreak, and of course, all the little animated microorganisms as pictured above. Every episode includes a sequence on food microbiology as explained by the cartoon microbes, which is fucking EPIC. Exchange microbes with bugs, and THIS IS MY LIFE AS I WISH IT, FOLKS.
And unfortunately, they only made 11 episodes. So sad.

Miyazaki's son (which, I guess, still makes him Miyazaki) is having his first feature released in the US.
I've seen very few Anime. Ghost in the Shell, Ninja Scroll (which I own), and Akira, and a handfull of Miyazaki. I'd have to say his are my favorite. I think I said this on the boards before, but if the world were to die of acute cute, Ponyo would be its destroyer.
