    Anyone know where I can get a good stream of Attack on Titan?

    Attack on Titan is on Crunchyroll. It streams at (I think) 360p for free accounts.

    It streams it free at that quality, aye. Watching it myself on the site, interesting so far (and I love the opening theme for some reason).


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,812 ✭✭✭Vojera


    Just watched the first episode of Attack on Titan myself. It's a lot different than I expected. The titans are horrible :(

    Watched the first episode of Copellion...

    A little slow. The scenery looks amazing. They're trying very hard not to say the R word. The animation actually looks good in places. And I still like the Premise of STALKER in Tokyo.

    Finished Baccano recently, shame there was only one season but I might look into the light novels.

    Hilarious, gritty. The animation is excellent and and old school! Looking forward to next week!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,067 ✭✭✭Gunmonkey


    Had my friend gush a good bit about KlK too, may watch it soon.

    Also, nice rundown of all the new series this season on Kotaku here.


  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 17,135 Mod ✭✭✭✭cherryghost


    KlK so far is the best show this season imo, a lot of mediocre rubbish to be seen.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,269 ✭✭✭GalwayGuy2


    Hmmm, I should watch Kill la Kill.

    Yeah, I;m watching freezing at the moment. If you ignore the ecchi, it has actually quite a good storyline.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 155 ✭✭G.J.


    I've just finished SnK/AoT.

    I've got Golden Time, Infinite Stratos 2 and Kill la Kill on my radar for this season. I'm watching Miss Monochrome too.

    And I'm playing catch up on the Monogatari series, just started Bakemonogatari.


  • Registered Users Posts: 74 ✭✭Martonio


    Just finished watching "Shinsengumi". It is about how Westerners came to China and the struggles and battles with a bit of supernatural thrown in. It is okay. Good battle scenes but the main female character was a pain though. No character development or anything. The battle scenes were good though.


  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 17,135 Mod ✭✭✭✭cherryghost


    Episode 2 of KlK is great.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 28 rendy78f9b194


    only naruto new650...I hope to have the spirit!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 745 ✭✭✭baron von something

    just finished watching the Dragon Ball Z:Battle of Gods movie.i hope it gets a new series off the back of it

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,269 ✭✭✭GalwayGuy2


    nearly finished Monster biggrin.png

    I don't want to spoil anything, but Johann's end game is frighteningly plausible.

    I'd say it could happen in a lot of Irish towns :eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 155 ✭✭G.J.


    Finished Bakemonogatari and have moved onto Nisemonogatari. Just over half way through. The series has been fantastic so far, really enjoying it.

    Ya I found it really funny, great characters.

    That's why I leave it for a month or 2 and watch like 10 episodes in a row, so far I've managed to not watch the last 12 or so episodes, the next all nighter with Shippuuden I do is going to be awesome haha.

    Monster is a fantastic series. Some call it slow paced but I think the pace truly helps make it better.

    Haven't heard of kik will have to check it out!


  • Registered Users Posts: 74 ✭✭Martonio


    Just finished AoT! Holy crap what a series. I just devoured it in a few days. Epic.

    Is "Monster" any good? I was thinking of watching that next.

    Monster is great, some people are turned off by the length of it though. I wasn't personally, worth a watch certainly!

    Why? Is it long?


  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 17,135 Mod ✭✭✭✭cherryghost


    74 episodes


  • Registered Users Posts: 74 ✭✭Martonio


    That's not so bad! Sure DB is around 150, Naruto is probably is over a thousand at this stage etc. 74 is very manageable. :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 697 ✭✭✭Saruwatari


    Watching the 90s New Dominion Tank Police OVA, great stuff! Looks amazing too, really captures the original Shirow material well.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,944 ✭✭✭✭Links234


    watching a bit more Darker Than Black now ;)

    Watching Outbreak Company. Was about to chuck it after the first episode tbh, but the 2nd episode is starkingly contrasted and offers some more drama and hints of character progression instead of bucketloads of fan service. Will keep watching for now I guess.


  • Registered Users Posts: 149 ✭✭The Sky


    I just finished the manga of Shingeki no Kyojin, I need moar!

    2040, old-school... >..> Ahem

    You need to go back to 1987 for the original (Superior) version. With better music. Unfortunately unfinished - or perhaps fortunately given the nature of Crash.

    edit: Speaking of the Original BGC

    Oh my I must check that out.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,269 ✭✭✭GalwayGuy2


    Watching Berserk.

    Damn, it's a masterpiece.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,944 ✭✭✭✭Links234


    Original series or the new movies?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,269 ✭✭✭GalwayGuy2

    Original series.

    I must admit, i am wtfing at the last episode.

    Still, very, very interesting relationship between Guts and Griffith.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,944 ✭✭✭✭Links234


    It's a killer that the show ends where it does ;)

    The movies are worth a look, but they cut out a lot of character development early on. The last one is excellent though, because it has some plot points that were trimmed from the series.

    Hmmm, I might do that.

    Mind you, I'm going to start reading the mangas.

    On a completely unrelated note, what do ye think about places to read them free online.

    Hypothetically, are they safe or not?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,944 ✭✭✭✭Links234


    no idea since I don't really read manga :o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,269 ✭✭✭GalwayGuy2


    Same, but then I found out that animes about mangas are almost as inexact as movies about books.

    And the artwork is pretty brill.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,014 ✭✭✭marko93


    "Yowamushi Pedal"

    first anime I've ever watched that hasn't ended o.o


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators Posts: 80,797 Mod ✭✭✭✭Sephiroth_dude


    I enjoyed bubblegum crisis,watching ghost hunt now,not bad so far.


  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 17,135 Mod ✭✭✭✭cherryghost


    Outbreak Company episode 5 just went back to pure fan service again >.>


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,944 ✭✭✭✭Links234


    nothing puts me off an anime like fanservice does :(

    It's a show that's literally about fanservice, but the shows were surprisingly serious so I kept at it, enjoyed most of it so far regardless!
