I used to watch them religiously. It's the anime that made me fell in love with J-Rock band, MOVE. I think I may have stopped on the episode where the Protag had seen his girl stepped into a car of an older man (Is she a hooker?).

I better read the Manga, to get me re-acquainted again with the series.

Yep, a hooker. Well, the Japanese call it Enkō, which is old sugar daddies buying young wans fancy gifts and are rewarded for it .

Flicking around on Netflix yeserday and I noticed they are removing the first 4 stages tomorrow

lol, welcome to the Kanto Desert dude :P

One of my fave shows, even the more serious 2nd half. Was half tempted to attempt a Sunabouzu cosplay not too long ago.

On episode 13 really starting to get into now

carter2

I am currently watching Ushio and Tora and Hellsing
Great anime series to watch!

megaten

Watched Redline. There was a few weaknesses in terms of the plot but overall I though it was incredible.

Supermensch

I finally succumbed to the suggestions of top anime lists and am watching Neon Genesis Evangelion. The intro is too bloody catchy.

Also reading One Piece. Very shouen, I'm enjoying it.

The odd episode of Gintama is helping me survive the horrors of final year in college. Other than that Magi and From the New World are great shows from this season. Great season overall.

I received the Devil May Cry series yesterday, watched 2 episodes so far and it seems really solid. I also plan on buying some volumes of Death Note on Sunday.

Sephiroth_dude

Just finished dessert punk,really enjoyed it,dunno what to watch next !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sephiroth_dude

Watching Strain: Strategic Armored Infantry now

Waterlilie

I am not an anime fan but watched "Vampire Knight Guilty" because of my brother.
Usually I don't like vampire movies/series but this one was quite good.

Gerardo_12

I'm reading Naruto and watching Fairy Tail. My favorite character in Fairy Tail is Erza Scarlet.

rlsniper789

Started watching Sword Art Online on Friday, I'm on episode 15 now. I fecking love it so much T_T It makes me happy then sad then happy then sad etc ;_;

Episode 14 was really emotional, had me produce a tear......or 2

Sephiroth_dude

Finished Watching Strain: Strategic Armored Infantry,watching night raid 1931 now,good so far.

Vojera

I just re-read the first arc of Cardcaptor Sakura and now I'm starting the second arc (which I've never read before).

I am trying to don't leave spoilers around, but honestly i like the way they are developping the story itself, it's over, but it's not, and then something new comes up and here we go another story with his development.... honestly after ep 24 i am not sure what will happen, for a couple of time i have already said to myself, ok it is now over, but then other 10 eps came out

Headshot

Baki son of ogre is pure epic

Yujiro Hanma has to be one of my favourite characters ever

Sephiroth_dude

WATCHING VANguard now,loving it so far

Gunmonkey

Got Black Lagoon as a pressie so making me way through that.

GarH

I'm finally up to date on Naruto, so I've now moved onto Bleach.
Really enjoying it so far.

Sesshoumaru

Initial D Fifth Stage - First 4 episodes have aired and so far so good

Natsu83

Watching bleach, thank god its nearly over, the story line is beginning to drag out. it should have ended already. then there is naruto. its filler is muck, but the main story is good, this includes naruto shippidon. Finished watching claymore, anyone know if there is a second season in the cards? one piece too, around episode 285 i think. good so far, even better in later episodes im told. but my personal favorite at the minute has to be fairy tail, just outrageous fun. when its funny its hysterical, when its dramatic it cuts into your core, you feel for the characters dilemma.

PopePalpatine

I just caught up with all 4 (released) episodes of Initial 5th Stage. I'm not in as much awe as I was when I watched the previous 4 stages, though, but it's still a good show.

BrianG23

Skip the fillers of Naruto. It's the only option. One Piece is the best out of them btw. Just...skip the fillers/ Naruto is a horrible disappointment atm in the manga.

Hagakure_irl

Not too sure what to start off with this year, I was thinking of Gundam Wing again. I'd like something new though.

SgtBob

Just finished Steins;Gate and A Certain Magical Index. Enjoyed them both, I though Steins;Gate was very clever.

Bedshaped

Wandered into Forbidden Planet for the first time in about a decade recently and bought up the first 3 Volumes of 20th Century Boys which I'm loving to pieces right now.

PopePalpatine

I watched Nekomonogatari Black, so now I'm watching Bakemonogatari.

gian

Sword Art Online, Rebuild of Evangelion, and after 14 years im rewatching one of my favorite anime Gundam Wing

Gunmonkey

Finished up Black Lagoon (soooooooo good, hurry up Roberta's Blood Trail) and The World God Only Knows (odd but enjoyed it more than I thought I would, have to love Keimas little fantasies when he gives his proclomations). Wanted something a bit more low key so watching Hanasaku Iroha, nice show and continues PA Works trend of incredibly detailed backdrops (same with TariTari).

Since the Winter Season is upon us, only show to catch my eye in the new lineup is Mayou, the classic "one Hero rises to defeat the Demon Lords" story from almost every action series/JRPG but twisted to point out how such a war would disrupt the world (outside of the obvious fighting and death and what-not).

Sesshoumaru

Recently I've watched SOA, Btooom and now watching The Unlimited

Vojera

I'm reading Fruits Basket. I've just finished volume 11. Man, I hate Akitooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!

Gunmonkey

Just in case people didnt know, Summer Wars is playing on Sky Movies Premiere from tomorrow at 8am and 4:15pm. Looking forward to it as The Girl Who Leapt Through Time was great.

It's great.

Got FMA: Brotherhood last Monday, just finished it today. So.....so damn awesome a series.

Originally watched 30 or so episodes of the original FMA years ago so was odd to see the shaken up storylines

the fight with Scar where Ed loses his automail and Al gets the hole torn in him was quite late in FMA but one of the first episodes in FMA:B

Vojera

I started reading the Evangelion manga. So far it's pretty identical to the anime. I'm sure it's going to be pretty close the whole way through, but hey.

Nearly finished with Cardcaptor Sakura and started Sailor Moon. I didn't watch either when I was a wee lad because I found them too girly.

WHAT IS MY LIFE?

Raif Severance

Been reading Rookies, and what an Absolute Riot it is!

The closest thing to Slam Dunk IMO.

If you had Fun with Sakuragi and his Gang of Basketball Deliquents, then you'll fit right in with Kawato and his Unruly Baseball Thugs.
