Right now, it looks as if Naruto may just take the cake for something close to being overated, although I don't care much for the series, damn near everyone I see who is just getting into manga/anime always run to that first, or just only buy from that series alone. So yeah, it's a huge deal around where I live, everyone is talking about Naruto.

well since Yu-gi-oh is ending soon, Pokemon is starting to make a big comeback. Expect the card game and gamboy games to be big hits again in the near future.

Anyway Inuyasha is by far NOT overrated. It is one of the most popular animes of all time and will ramin that way for years to come even though the series has ended in Japan. What most of you need to do is watch the 3rd Inuyasha movie that came out resently. It is by far the best of the 3 movies so far.

About eating rice. You need to let the hot rice cool for a few minutes. That way it become "stickier" thereby they pieces of rice will stick to each other better and allowing the chopsticks to get a better grip on them. It's what I do and it really works!

Hold the bowl up with one hand, tilt it toward your face, and kind of shovel it towards your face. Let some of it fall into your mouth.

I don't know. A lot of NG members seem to hate it, so I wouldn't say it's overrated as far as this site is concerned. At other sites/places however, I think it may be a little overrated. People praise it like it's the best thing they've ever seen, but I don't think the show is anything special. I don't particularly care for it that much, but I don't dislike it. I watch a little bit of it sometimes. I used to watch it a lot, though.

Hmm.. interesting... officially, I dont think i'm a member anymore, but I wanted to give a heads up about TheSato (TSN). For you writers out there that like Roleplaying, this is perfect. Interesting spot to check out, and since you guys are here, I'm assuming you guys have the time to check this site out. Oh, and if you DO decide to join, Join the Oto Sato, The Sound VIllage, and put me(AU542) as the referer.

oh. I forgot to mention that its an ever-growing network, and right now, the TSN roleplay coves are for Naruto(what it started out for) and Bleach. an FMA Roleplaying system is in the works ATM, so stay tuned for that.

TSN has also recently bought out some anime downloading sites. ArcAnime will be released once again into the wild VERY soon so check out Arc Anime soon. It had at least 6 completed series up for Download As off last thursday it bought Anime Hungry aswell. so, yeah. We've been around for a year now, and we're ever growning. We even making an MMORPG.

Yeah, so, if you guys are interested the check it out. Its fun stuff... Its the thing that diverted my attention away from this very club. If you look at my old posts, you'll see that most of them are from in this club. :P

Haven't see it yet

Samurai champloo

Read the manga, loved the manga, seen anime, loved the fact that it has some Hip-Hop flavor in it.

Wolfs rain

I think I read the manga once, otherwise, this show was boring, in my opinion.

Cowboy bebop

Loved the manga, not enough to buy it though, the anime was good. Best episode ever "Ballad Of The Fallen Angels" I loved that flashback seen.

Jubei chan

I've heard good things about that show.

Love hina

First manga I ever bought and completed, the anime company butchered the story badly in my opinion. I highly suggest the manga, otherwise you'll deprive yourself of a lot of great hillarious moments

S cry ed

Haven't read or seen the anime yet, but my friends call the anime generic.

Parinoia agent

Haven't seen it.

TRIGUN

Loved the manga and the show, although I'd suggest watching it in Japanese though

Hellsing

Manga good, and the anime was good. It's coming back you know?

Dragon ball

I find it funny that some people thought that DB was new when it first showed up on CN. Funny times, and the manga is good.

Full metal panic Fumoffu

I've heard good things.

GTO

I got all 25 mangas, I completed loved the manga series, as for the anime, it was good.

Please teacher

I read the manga series that only spanned for two books, but haven't seen the anime yet

Outlaw star

Haven't seen that in ages, I can't remember it all that well

Gundam wing

Same case with this one

. hack sigh and Twilight baracelet(Total crap)

I have no statement on that one

Inuyasha

One of the only animes I've seen that follows so closey to the manga, quite good, although I highly suggest Maison Ikkoku and Ranma 1/2 instead.

Chobits

Great manga, and good anime. I only saw four episodes of it though.

Evangelion

Never got a chance to see the anime or read the manga, heard great things about though

FLCL

Great show, although Magical Shopping Arcade Abenobashi matched that show when it came to randomness and making fun of other animes amongst other things. I reccomend both.

Fruits basket
AZUMANGA dAIHO

I've heard good things from those two, but I've never seen the anime, nor have read the manga

A good animation, but I personally prefer the comics and novels.

TRIGUN

Same case as Fullmetal Alchemist (Comics > Animation), though things looked good before it got more serious.

Dragon ball

Nice simple paced fighting and plenty of explosions, but if you want to control the pace a bit more, I recommend reading the comics instead.

Full metal panic Fumoffu

Fumo? Fumoffu!!
(Great in-school fun with a War Lunatic)

GTO

Ever liked watching kids getting taught about life by an Ex-Gang leader?

(Again, the comics are better than the animation)

Gundam wing

Only a few good episodes among the 50 (Or was it 49?)

If anything, skip directly to the Movie/OVA.

Yes it is. I had to stop for lunch after walking from the Ohio Union Garage to Bevis Hall for a parking permit. I wish they'd tell me when they plan to take all the busses out of service.

Thanks. Before last Saturday, the only foods I've eaten with chopsticks were ramen noodles and a pot roast that was too soggy to use a fork. I tried to pick up the rice with chopsticks, and usually got just a dozen grains that stuck to the ends.

By the way, does anyone know a good place to get a Robotech DVD for under $10? For some reason, my copy of Volume 12 is acting up. I can watch episodes 68, 69, and 70, but episodes 71 - 73 won't play. I've already tried getting it repaired, but that didn't help one bit.

Well I decided this morning that I should let everyone know that I was still alive. Not happily that way but alive none the less. I was also thinking about a certin person and feeling extremely depressed that I hadn't heard from him. I was thinking that I would NEVER hear from him again... but what was this I saw when I got here. I about shit myself... Nearly everything I've been feeling depressed about disappeared in an instant. In case anyone's wondering what the hell I'm rambling on about, it's because Wonko's back WOOOOOO!!!! Welcome back! I missed so much you wouldn't believe. Please at least e-mail me or something. I'm dying to hear how things have been going for you.

On an anime note... I haven't really been able to watch anyting new but I have been keeping up with Tsubasa Chronicles and it has left me very unsatisfied. I can't wait til the new season which won't start til April...

Sorry can't think of much more to say right now.... and with all the problems in my life I can't be here full time as I would like to. When my life gets straight then I will be here. I don't know when that will be though......

FLCL is so awesome. It's 1 of my all time favorites in anime! So random...
Read Fruits Basket manga, never saw it Inuyasha/ Gundam Wing ok
Paranoia Agent very cool and creepy. The teaser on Adult Swim makes it seem like a horror movie, but it's scarier. sCRYed is kinda pointless, but it's ok cause it's gundam, so... Full metal alchemist is ok, the theme song's catchy, anyway. Samurai Champloo is freakin cool, but they have to say that it's a work of fiction before playing an episode, because it's anime, but it's set in fairly realistic ancient Japan.

Response to Anime Club 2005-12-12 17:14:15


Welcome back Wonko and Tink. It's nice to hear from you again. It would be even nicer if Adult Swim hadn't taken the new episodes of Inuyasha out of the line-up, but the end of s-CRY-ed should open up a time slot.

Speaking of wanton destruction, now that I've finished collecting Robotech, I need to find a new Mecha (or any other action genre) series to buy on DVD. Does anyone know a good anime that I can get for less than $100 total?
