    Re: Anime/Manga Discussion Thread

    One Punch Man is just too damn fun to watch. I love how much fun the show has with itself. And I love how much fun the animators have with the medium. Everything is so over the top in a good way, reminds me alot of Kill la Kill in that regard (minus the over the top fan service lol).

    I thought the whole one punch kill protagonist would be a bit dull. But this show makes it work an then some.

      Watched all the season of Working, and it was good anime. Been a while since I seen a anime where all the characters were this likeable. I don't have anything bad to say about the anime or characters.

      Started One Punch Man, and this show is just gold. The main character is too perfect for this show. Everything about him just go so well with the show.

      Are their any websites that show the rest of the Fairy Tail? I'm mot talking about Fairy Tail(2014), but the rest of the stuff that happened before that. Do they show the rest of the Grand Magic Games, and the Tenrou Island arc? All the sites I see end on episode 175 for some reason. Not sure why.

          20 year anniversary today for the original Ghost in the Shell movie(25th anniversary for the manga). Man, 20 years already. My favorite franchise, hopefully more to come.

            Has anyone watched any of the Dragon Ball Super series yet? I wasn't a big fan of the Dragon Ball GT series and never got into it. I can see myself getting into this after the first episode. It's got more of a modern touch to it in terms of aesthetics but all of the characters are relatively the same except they made Gohan a dweeb.

            Before this, I was about 20 episodes into YuYu Hakusho. I never really got to finish the series when they were on Cartoon Network's Toonami. I think I left off somewhere during the big tournament.

            I'm not a huge huge fan of anime, I've only been able to finish some of smaller, more popular ones such as Rurouni Kenshin, Full Metal Alchemist, and Death Note (aside from Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z when I was younger). I never really got into the major ones like Naruto or Bleach.

              I am in the same boat with DBZSUPER my grown up mind cant embrace the non-character development again. I finished DBZ with kid buu and I left it there.

              I think if you want to make another crack at Naruto & bleach I suggest reading the mangas(the graphic novels that are the source for the animes) not as time consuming about 20 pages per chapter. Naruto is finished at 710 chapters and Bleach is still ongoing.

              The best suggestion for a casual anime fan I can give is Code Geass, everyone I suggest that too ends up loving it.

                Also I would throw Darker than Black in there. Great fight scenes in that?

                Also as for Bleach, id skip it. Its gotten worse than what Naruto was towards the end. If anything stop after the Aizen Ark.

                  Darker Than Black is a solid show. Made by Bones(Eureka Seven, Rahxephon, FMA). Good music, interesting characters, solid story. It lives up to its nickname of

                    What are some good manga to read? I'm not really sure what to read since I only started reading them a few months ago. Right now my main focus is Boku no Hero Academia, Tokyo Ghoul;Re, One Piece, Katekyo Hitman Reborn(almost finished), and Air Gear(over halfway done).

                      Have you read Hunter x Hunter? It's pretty good, but starts a new arc that will likely never get finished because Togashi is lazy and has back issues. Yu Yu Hakusho is a favorite of mine, although that is one I think the anime > Manga.

                        Never read the manga for Hunter x Hunter but got up to the Ant arc(forgot what it was called) in the anime. I am planing on going back to finishing it. Already watched Yu Yu Hakusho, and I love it. One of the best animes I ever watched.

                          Recently saw Samurai Champloo. It was real good but the ending left me asking for more in a bad way. Felt like the payoff was poop.

                          Himouto Umaru-Chan. I honestly don't know why I saw every episode of this. It was just funny enough. But I wouldn't recommend it. Nothing really happens. It's weird.

                          Prison School. This show is all about fan service. But I enjoyed the comedy.


                          I'm thinking about starting Gintama. I saw a couple recently released episodes and the humor got me.

                          Also dragon ball super is fun. It's not as cool as dragon ball z used to be. I feel like they're bringing back the dragon ball humor to it. They are currently in the middle of the Frieda movie arc so soon they'll be some new content there.

                              I remember dropping Air Gear a long time ago.

                              It just was not explaining enough for me to finish it off. Started off very strong though.

                                Show could have definitely used more episodes.
