Guys no. No.

What's not to like about awesome 70s Super Robot shows? If you have a couple of hours, I think we can explain. I suppose so. Please elaborate. NOOOOOOOOOOO This way lies madness. I honestly want to hear honest opinons on why the things I like are so horrible that the new shows have to be so radically different. It's partly that the 70's are considered a dead era for creativity except for Star Wars. Similarly, the 80's are known for bad action flicks starring behemoths. This, basically, is the image that people people get: Spoiler: show spoiler hide spoiler I think you're wrong, and for the following reasons: Indiana Jones Back to the Future Ghostbusters The Dark Crystal & Labyrinth The Neverending Story Willow The Last Starfighter The Princess Bride etc. Yeah! what was so much more horrible about Japanese media/anime of this time period?

Nightly ef musings (personal blog lol) A love triangle that goes somewhere? Unheard of! That was one epic phone call. I can't wait to see how this ends, but at the same time I want to drag it out cus it's going to be sad when there's no more episodes to watch I guess there's A Tale of Melodies.

I can't wait to see how this ends, but at the same time I want to drag it out cus it's going to be sad when there's no more episodes to watch I guess there's A Tale of Melodies. 2 epic phone scenes in one series. The revival of colour in that scene was so reminiscent of Breath of Fire 2 where the game starts off in black and white but becomes a palette of colour during the intro. Melodies I feel is weaker than Memories in the artistic direction (sometimes too over the top) and one of the stories is a bit oddly paced as well not clicking with me. Still very good though. --- Minami-ke Okaeri is off to a good start. Very amusing. M I N A M I K E Let's Go.

Oh, did I mention that I'm up to date on the One Piece manga? Now, my number one fear now that Oda's Spoiler: show spoiler hide spoiler introduced a significant romantic element into the series, will it receive appropriate development or resolution? Even if it's only used as a gag, it'll be better than in Naruto where kishimoto's more or less disregarded that entire subplot for the past 200 chapters. Yeah, I'm not too concerned about that. Also, re: Shischibukai v Admirals in terms of strength, assuming the third is similar to the other two? Gotta go with Admirals. Is it a big spoiler to ask who the couple in question is? Is it Ms Navigator and Love Cook? I would actually welcome this, since it gives them a chance to evolve their characters a little. It would get redundant if Sanji would constantly fawn over Nami while Nami just takes advantage of it, and it never moved past this. It's like if Zoro practiced his sword training but never got stronger. Huh. Eva 2.0 is being released in early summer. Changed from winter. Wonder who the new girl is? Spoiler: show spoiler hide spoiler It's been my belief that she is a representative from SEELE who enters NERV along with Kawaru. Basically, she's to Kawaru what Misato is to Shinji. I always felt how it was weird how Kawaru just walked into NERV without any fanfare, so it makes more sense to have him enter with a guardian of sorts. Although she looks a lot younger in that shot than I had envisioned. As long as she's not a new pilot (it'll just take time away from Asuka's introduction), I'm fine either way.

I suppose it's old news here that Evangelion 1.0 got licensed by Funimation?

Guys no. No. NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! I don't know what that video was but it certainly gets a point across.

It is a bit of a spoiler to reveal the couple but no, it isn't Sanji and Nami. I kinda like that One Piece doesn't take romantic elements too seriously. Although romance can ad gravitas to character development, it would almost go counter to the concept of 'Nakama' if members of the crew were to fall in love with, and essentially 'favor' one crew member over the rest.

White Album seems to be okay. Kind of a nice change to have the two main characters together in the beginning instead of the usual routine. Guy's friend is a bit of a toolbag, though.

Oh hell yes the first new Ippo is out.

I was in Obsidian Spur with you, it has rendered all your opinions null and void with me... Also, those shows (70s robot shit) are not good, maybe from a nostalgia factor but in reality they are poorly animated, poorly written, poorly dubbed and in general an eyesore to watch. This even applies to Robotech. Yes, I said it.

Well, to be honest, I think Robotech is still far better than AVD's horrid Macross Dub. The old Animeigo one on the other hand, is awesome.

Oda has made it quite clear that none of the crew will ever fall for one another. Ever. I'm pretty sure it would get old fast if he actually caved in and started pairing people up, and would deprivate the story with unnecessary bullshit.

I'm pretty sure it would get old fast if he actually caved in and started pairing people up, and would deprivate the story with unnecessary bullshit. Crew pairings are what Doujinshi are for I just can't imagine One Piece having serious romantic elements. It would be too... wierd.

I'm pretty sure it would get old fast if he actually caved in and started pairing people up, and would deprivate the story with unnecessary bullshit. Well it's true, the story works just fine without any romantic elements, but I was thinking at least in the finale they could make Sanji and Nami canon, just because it would feel somewhat dumb to have them go their separate ways while Sanji waits for the next pretty girl to walk his way. I guess I'm really just curious to see how Sanji treats women once they're past the flirting phase. Also, Franky House just learned a very important lesson. Spoiler: show spoiler hide spoiler Don't fuck with the Straw Hats. And the proceeding episode was surprisingly emotional. Even I got a little teary eyed.

But then us Sanji Robin shippers will hate Oda forever. Haha but yes, I do agree it would be interesting to see Sanji get serious about a woman rather than falling over for every one in sight. Oda knows how to pull the heartstrings over surprising things.

Whoever thought Tieria was female at first raise your hand. *raises hand* I knew he was a male, but dammit, he's one of the worst bishounen I have ever seen. I was like "hot meganekko piloting giant robot shit yeah." You can imagine my disappointment. It was your personal animated Crying Game wasn't it? I knew he's a guy all along, but that doesn't stop me from thinking 'he'd still make a hot woman.'

So a friend tricked me into watching Elfen Lied. Without any warning about how messed up it is. It was a good show, but a little heads up would've been nice. I intend to get my revenge with full metal alchemist but in the meantime, a question about the manga/ending. Spoiler: show spoiler hide spoiler Does the manga give a more conclusive ending than the anime? This is a dumb way of asking if Lucy actually rejoins them. It's implied at the end of the anime, but I would like to know for certain, if possible.

God damn t, even shit like Macross had at least a little QUALITY in it. QUALITY really isn't all that terrible, it only got really bad with Gundam in particular because it wasn't just the character scenes, the QUALITY infected the Mecha, too. where, you go watch something like Voltes V or Zambot 3, all the QUALITY is pretty much limited to the characters, understandably all the animation budget went to what fucking counts, the mecha and the MOTW. I wish more shows had that kind of dedication to mechanical design and battle scenes nowadays but noooooooooooo....... people have to have their pretty characters and angst.

She comes back as Nyu, slowly regains her powers/crazy and becomes Lucy again. Eventually her body disintegrates from overuse of her powers. Also in the manga the guy (forget his name) never actually forgives her.
