[quote name='Shinmaru' date='09 November 2010 - 03:16 PM' timestamp='1289337387' post='701705'] my favorite character is their manager. She's the greatest. [/quote] I love her random English words and phrases! Man, is she one scary lady! *::*snickers*::*

:OOOO Well, I'll have to watch it then! I'll look it up online to see if I can find it. Right now I'm watching [i]Detroit Metal City[/i]. It's hilarious! I've been laughing my ass off. So wrong, so very wrong. Hahahahahahaha!

[quote] Anime on par with [b]Monster[/b] and [b]Baccano![/b]? That's a tall order. Some recommendations from me, though ... (boy, do I love the shared anime feature on MAL!): [/quote] Inorite? I found it really hard, myself! [quote]-- [b]Akagi[/b] and [b]Kaiji[/b]: Both are about gambling and dark underworld settings ... [b]Akagi[/b] is a more straightforward tale of the title character's rise to the top of the underworld through his ruthless mastery of mahjong (sounds silly, but it's really intense). [b]Kaiji[/b] is about a man who desperately tries to pry himself out of debt through life-or-death gambling contests; it's [i]really[/i] dark, and my preferred series of the two because it has more depth, and the story has more clever twists and turns. Both are good, though.[/quote] I've heard of Akagi, and I was really interested in it. Never got around to it, though. Now I have to try both of them out. =d [quote]-- [b]Detroit Metal City[/b]: 12 episodes of 13 minutes each about a guy who just wants to sing fluffy pop tunes and is instead the leader of Japan's most notorious death metal band. Maybe the funniest anime ever made.[/quote] Omg, that sound hilarious! I wonder where I can find it online. . . [quote]-- [b]Kaleido Star[/b]: A young girl climbs to the top of the circus through hard work and guts. Unique in anime in that it emphasizes the hard work just as much as the guts. Plus, Kaleido Stage is a magical setting.[/quote] This one is good, eh? I've heard of it but never got around to watch it. [quote]-- [b]Kemono no Souja Erin[/b]: Just the type of under the radar anime I think you'd love. A girl with an affinity for animals grows up in a country that is splitting apart due to war. Written by the dude who wrote the [b]Moribito[/b] novels, so you know it's a smart series.[/quote] ZOMGYES. If it has anyone as sexeh as Balsa in it, then I'm all for it~! [quote] -- [b]Legend of the Galactic Heroes[/b]: I'm only 20 episodes in, myself (out of 110), but if you didn't love this, I would be absolutely shocked. It's nothing less than the story of a galactic war between an empire and a group that wishes to secede ... but with neither side totally glorified or made utterly evil. There's an insane range of characters, stories and perspectives, and yet it's surprisingly easy to keep up with given the scope of the whole thing.[/quote] 110 episodes? o3o That's. . .a lot to swallow. . .but if you say it's good and that I'll love it, then I'm sure I will! After all, I loved every movie I watched in that movie list you gave Nan and I.

Okay, I'm actually posting right now, which is amazing for someone with my current level of laziness. xD I'm watching and reading a medley of anime/ manga, some of which are good but most of which are so-so. I'd really love to find another anime/ manga that's on par with [i]Monster[/i] or [i]Baccano![/i]. Any suggestions? Currently watching: [url="http://myanimelist.net/anime/7054/Kaichou_wa_Maid-sama!"][i]Kaichou wa Maid-sama![/i][/url]. It's a really cute anime, if typical anime. The strange thing is, is that I am actually enjoying it! Most of these shoujo "Oh! I'm such a strong girl, and I really like this guy; but because I said I don't like guys I'm just going to deny to everyone, including myself, that I really think he is the hottest thing since lava!" type girl. They usually are a pain in the ass, but I find myself liking Misaki's character. I also like the fact that she hasn't actually gotten any weaker physically, like most of her kind do when they meet the leading male role. Usui, too, is an anomaly! Usually I hate his type of "I'm such a nice guy, but I'm going to pretend to be all mean and a player because I don't think you like me" character. It's really refreshing. Oh! I'm watching the [url="http://myanimelist.net/anime/7193/Aoi_Bungaku_Series"][i]Aoi Bungaku Series[/i][/url] as well. I'm only on the first episode, but already this has turned into into a gripping series. It's still a little hazy as to what direction the characters are going to take, but I love the over all feel of it. The first episode has a sort of film noir look to it. The character designs are gorgeous(what do you expect? [url="http://myanimelist.net/people/1888/Takeshi_Obata"]Takeshi Obata[/url] was the one who did them!), the animation has nothing lacking. It's smooth and really pleasant to watch, which is a nice change. I'm also watching [url="http://myanimelist.net/anime/6746/Durarara!!"][i]Durarara!![/i][/url]. It's a good anime. I have to say that I expected great things from it, and boy did it deliver! The characters are rich and full of life! The animation is crisp and clean. The story is impelling, making me want to sit down and watch the whole thing in one day. There were a lot of plot twists that I didn't see coming, which was nice. Not to brag or anything, but in most anime I've gotten to the point where I can tell pretty much exactly what's going to happen. . .so watching this is a real treat! Yeah, I'm going to stop at those three for now. I'm running out of time. *::*is putting off getting ready for work*::* Sometime I'll get around to posting up the manga I'm reading(which is a LOT) . Here are links to [url="http://myanimelist.net/animelist/AnyaSilverblade"]My Anime List[/url] annnnd [url="http://myanimelist.net/mangalist/AnyaSilverblade"] My Manga List[/url], if anyone is interested.
