I just started watching Higurashi no Naku Koro ni (Or When They Cry), and it's quite good. Brutal and demented as fuck, but very good!

i couldnt watch it because the art-style is awful, and i couldn't handle the obnoxious "cute" antics. i watched some of the violent scenes too and they looked lame.

Purchased about 16 inches of vagina repellent this past week. That is to say I bought a pair of anime figures. I fear I may be fast approaching the point of no return.
Post your collections if you have any. Anyone. Pls.

cool stuff, I don't have any of my own to reassure you unfortunately. How much did they cost?

I haven't seen it yet, but I've made good progress on my backlog in the past month. I've finished like ten series, with Mouretsu Pirates being the last one yesterday. Just in time for the movie coming out in two days.

I'm enjoying the series, but the continuity is fubar- if there is meant to be an overarching story. The opening and ending themes played on Toonami are perfect for the show.
If memory serves me right, Blue Exorcist is starting on Toonami this weekend, and Black Lagoon will be added in March.

All nicely organized and in order. I'm still on the fence about the Jazz bass since my decision to buy it was 98% performance and 2% Mio

It's in the first page but I never really did join, I just pop in from time to time for a conversation about certain series. With that said, seeing how much anime series the Western world are familar with compared to Asians in general, I felt that the fandom in the U.S. are underexposed.

Back when this thread was active, we did away with the joining business years ago.

For some reason this guy reminds me of Beecha from Gundam ZZ.

I would've thought that the Internet would've closed the gap by now for American fans, though I guess that there are some series in Japan that would never catch on in the West, or in the case for Macross, have an old dubbing company (Harmony Gold) hog the rights to it, and the producers in Japan weren't going to deal with them. Also, the anti-Japanese sentiment of the 80's pretty much delayed any sort of introduction to anime in America (besides Astro Boy, Speed Racer and maybe Robotech) compared to Latin America and Europe, though that maybe just a big guess on my part.
It also didn't help that American dubs were godawful and the blantant altering made by Carl Macek pretty much gave the Japanese second thoughts about it at the time. (To be fair to Macek, he basically had to work from scratch and had to make do with this whitewashing and egregious censorship issues.)
Just stop worrying, and love the bomb.

With that said, when it comes to how much the people in the U.S. are horribly underexposed to anime it tells you something when you have this thread: http://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/1292658/1
Personally, I believe that anyone who thinks Doraemon is obscure should get shot.
Think of it as a mercy killing for that person's sake.

Anime in the '80s?
When was the dub for the original Vampire Hunter D made? Was that movie first released in the US within the decade? Cuz maybe I'm crazy since stuff like Akira, a few Ghibli classics. and the best of the Lupin movies came out then, but that's still probably my favorite anime from the '80s. I still keep going back and watching it over and over after all these years since I first saw it. All the time, I'll be up in the middle of the night when I should be asleep and I'll just suddenly decide to put it on. I dunno how to explain why I like it so much, but there's just something about how the movie feels. Part of it is the score, all the sound effects, the visuals, I dunno what else. I just love the atmosphere. I can't really explain well enough, but there are certain movies, especially from the '80s, that have a vibe to them that can't be redone. Blood Reign is one, too. Not as great as those Ghibli movies and such, but it has something about it for me that's made me keep watching it so many times. Fantastic Planet is another one, though that was from the '70s.
Anyone been watching Kill La Kill? I cannot wait for the next episode. I was underwhelmed by the first few episodes, but once it got past like episode 10 it blew my freakin' mind.
Wassup boys it's been like 2 years since I've been here what's goin on.

I remember you. Welcome back.
That race episode of Space Dandy had to be an homage to Outlaw Star, right? Even the guy with the green hair seemed like he was supposed to be based on Harry MacDougall, but exaggerating his effeminate qualities.

The first thing I thought of when they mentioned the space race was that episode of Outlaw Star, although I'm not sure if extremely effeminate super racer is a trope or not.

That's an improvement.
Sure it is, but that's not going to make me pick up a TV remote anytime soon.
I skipped out on this whole season to clean up my backlog, but I'm definitely watching Stardust Crusaders in spring.
Is anyone else watching Samurai Flamenco? This shows ability to slap you in your face with your expectations and throw them in the trash is impeccable.
So I'm presuming we can also talk about manga, if not then my apologies. If we are though, who knows where I can buy manga box sets without spending an arm and a leg?
