What anime are you watching or manga are you reading?

Yup, what Netflix is doing is scanning for most torrented shows and buying rights to them. AOT was in the top 30 most downloaded show's of 2013, so really not that surprising

At least that shows they bother themselves to do a little research before buying the rights over any show.

The first arc of the second season broke my heart Beautifully done story, but the saddest I've ever seen.

Watch Fate/Zero at the moment. Much better quality than Fate/Stay. Reading the Berserk Manga. The artworks pretty good :eek:

baron von something

started kill la kill.i'm not too pushed on it

Just started Blue Exorcist with herself lots of fun

ryanakabyitz

i picked up 4 episodes of beyblade the original series on dvd and 3 episodes of the original yu-gi-oh series so I have to watch them!

Berserk manga is truly a masterpiece

G.J.

The series I'm watching this season are:

- Chuunibyou S2
- Seitokai Yakuindomo*
- Space Dandy
- D-Frag!
- Kill la Kill
- Log Horizon
- Noragami
- Nisekoi

The ones that I'd say are high on my watch list are D-Frag! and Noragami. Noragami is a good replacement for the void left by the Monogatari series, and D-Frag! is just hilariously random, and the voice acting talent for the characters is crazy too.

I finished Girls und Panzer and the entirety of the Monogatari series recently too, the idea behind Girls und Panzer is strange at first, but it's executed really well, I really enjoyed it. The Monogatari series is fantastic as well, probably the best series I've watched so far, I'd definitely recommend it.

I'll probably end up watching Hyouka and The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya soon enough too, I've heard good things about both.

Edit: I forgot about Non Non Biyori, finished that recently too. The most relaxing show I've ever watched, if I ever feel down I'll probably end up watching an episode of it. =P

Gunmonkey

Current crop this season Im liking are:

-Silver Spoon
-Log Horizon
-Nagi no Asukara
-Tonari no Seki-kun
-Hozuki no Reitetsu (who wouldnt like a workplace comedy......set in hell)
-Magi
-Space Dandy
-Kill la Kill
-Samurai Flamenco (I just want the penny to drop....to see if the shift in tone after episode 7 is real or some massive injoke)

Others Im warming to are:

-Nobunaga the Fool
-World Conquest Zvazda Plot
-Hamatora

cherryghost

Noragami and Hamatora are great so far.

Catching up with Golden Time, starting to turn on me.

IHeartYuki

This season I'm watching:

Kill la Kill
Nourin
Log Horizon
Strike the Blood
Mahou Sensou
Nisekoi
Pupa
Noragami
Sekai Seifuku: Bouryaku no Zvezda
Golden Time
Wizard Barristers: Benmashi Cecil
Witch Craft Works
Tonari no Seki-kun
Hamatora
D-Frag!
Seitokai Yakuindomo*
Toaru Hikuushi e no Koiuta
Hoozuki no Reitetsu
Buddy Complex
Onee-chan ga Kita
Inari, Konkon, Koi Iroha
Mikakunin de Shinkoukei
Nagi no Asukara
Gin no Saji 2nd Season
Chuunibyou demo Koi ga ****ai! Ren

...I think I may be an addict. Chu-2 and Log Horizon are my favourites at the moment but I'm liking the progress of the love stories in Nagi no Asukara and I'm really warming up to Noragami but this could be because I recognise the MC's seyuu also voices Koyomi Araragi from Monogatari (one of my favourite series).

I like to think of Noragami as Monogatari, but with Araragi as a god instead of an immortal half-vampire.

Now I'm picturing that! But I think he's a little less of a pervert in Noragami, at least so far

Monogatari S2 is very disappointing. I've been following it since.. Neko I think? And my interest has dwindled in the series. However I MUST follow it to the end at this point!

If you haven't finished it yet I'm not going to spoil anything for you. I'm just going to say that it started slowly but from just after the halfway point I felt like I was on a rollercoaster.

How far have you gotten in Monogatari S2?

I stopped watching for a month or two after finishing the Mayoi Jiangshi arc, went back and finished it about a week ago. So glad I did, the final two/three arcs are fantastic, the last one in particular is amazing, they ended it really well.

Kill La Kill just had the best recap episode ever

PopePalpatine

F*ck, it was only a recap episode?

GalwayGuy2

F*ck, it was only a recap episode?

It had a Kill La Kill style recap

IHeartYuki

The Kill la Kill 'recap' was done the way all recaps should be done!

Now Little Busters!:EX has started as well. I'm not going to be able to find the time to go outside for the rest of the season.

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar

been rewatching evangelion recently after nearly a decade, was enjoying it and wondering why I had come to hate it so much

just finished episode 24 and i hate it again, not going to bother watching the last 2 eps or the movie. giant convoluted joke of a series, i'm going to read some of the wikis and just delete it from my hd.

never again.

Links234

Have you tried the new Eva movies? I found them much more accessible than the series.

Also, damnit, Mr. Meeseeks :pac: I laughed.

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar

i was going to wait until all 4 are released and then watch them, but found out yesterday the fourth isn't out until end of 2015 so I will probably end up watching them at some point in the next 2 years


also I said i wouldnt watch the rest, but I am watching 5 minutes of end of eva. I can't miss asukas glorious fight, almost makes the entire show worthwhile.


almost.

Links234

I'm Mr. Meeseeks, I never finished the series or End of Eva, look at me

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar

im too annoyed with it to reccomend finishing it some day but if you do read the wiki pages beforehand evageeks or eva.wikia.something . the show is too badly made to bother going into it fresh, you need backup.


think ill start rahxephon tomorrow to take my mind off this stuff.

Links234

I've too much other stuff to look at, but it's something I do want to give a proper go of at some point

Watching Blue Exorcist at the moment, nearly half way through it maybe? An awful lot of fun

UberPrinny_Baal

I don't like using the word "over-rated", because it's pretty condescending, but I can't think of any other way to describe Evangelion.

It starts off with a really interesting premise, and a bunch of okay episodes. It gets decent towards the middle, and based on the framework (you know how many Angels there are in advance, so you know it will come to a pre-planned climax) you expect it will have an awesome (or at least conclusive) ending.

But before you get ANY ending, or any real kind of closure, stuff just goes to hell and everyone becomes soup and the end. Get out. Go home. The movie's over. Why are you still here? [/Ferris Bueller]

I'd like to like Eva, but I've always felt like Eva disliked me, so I had to break up with it. One-way relationships aren't healthy.

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar

jesus ****ing christ links234 I just got where your name comes from

PopePalpatine

I love Eva.

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar

the good thing about eva being ****e is that it's true whether or not you believe it

PopePalpatine

That's just, like, your opinion man.

some awful german pop group


ive been listening to it every morning for the past couple of weeks, never put the connection together with your nick though. I guess links zwo drei vier is different enough for my brain not to work.
the realisation hit me with such force I felt I had to share

Links234

Hehehe

Yup, love Rammstein, one of the best concerts I've ever been to was their show at in Dublin a couple of years back

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar

not a huge fan myself, not enough elves or wizards for me. power metal is only metal.

Links234

Yeah, you and your Demons & Wizards, wasn't it?

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar

yeah, they and blind guardian were my favourites. havent listened to either much lately though, listen to more kpop than power metal these days.. *slinks away*

Catching up with Nagi no Asukara at the moment now. Really enjoying it!

I love that show. You can feel it melting your brain if you watch too much in one go, though.
