1) Shining Force 1 & 2 (Genesis) I guess it counts


Can't say I ever played those games.

No one has. Damn shame. It was one of the first games to incorporate a rpg fighting style that used a LARGE amount of characters on a huge board. Err I can't really describe it better then that. Anyway it was probably the last to use a huge battle kind of style in there games as well. ;(


2) Castelvania Symphony of the Night
OMG You've played that game??? Where did you get your copy??? My sister had a copy that I used to play a lot, but she can't find it. If I had it, I'd have to plug my PS back in LOL.
I don't think it qualifies as an ANIME video game, though.

What do you mean? Like BASED on a anime?? Then I can barely say any of these count except Budokai. FF was a anime but from what I've heard and seen that had little to do with the games.----- then again the video game sequels have very little to do with each other so maybe It does count.

Anyway the artwork for Symphony of the Night was very much animaish. It was drawn by a woman, I don't know if she is japanese but she made a extremely hard to find manga based on the video game.


Heh. I always put up some obscure old stuff when list favorites. I guess I'm old.
This stuff isn't obscure, at least not to me...

thanks.

3) Metal Gear Solid
I don't think this counts as an ANIME video game, does it?

That would be awesome if they made a anime for that! :)

5) Uh...... >:(...... OH :D Stupid me DBZ Budokai 1 & 2 !
Never played Budokai 2, but I loved Budokai 1. My best character was Teen Gohan, because I never let my opponent get up for long!!! Besides, Gohan has a great mix of speed and strength, at least as Normal or Super Saiyan 1. Usually, when I went SS2 with him, I started getting my ass kicked LOL.

They put a impressive amount of characters in the sequel but alas they killed the story mode which I really loved in favor of something completely different. You can also fuse in the game which I think was really neat.

One of the most creative things in the game was Videl's attack which was basically her calling Gohan for help. ^_^! And the Tien Yamcha fusion and Gokule! HAHAHA! That was cooL! To bad I got sick of it so quickly because I got all the characters at once with the Bulma cheat.

So, are you saying that the entire second season is just one huge flashback, or is it just mostly made up of flashbacks?

It's one big flashback of events that happened 2 years before the first season, but it occaisionally stops the flshbacks and goes to the present.

Over the years (aka Naruto TV) I've come to HATE flashbacks, there have been very few cases that I've seen them used for anything other than useless filler. The only exceptions are probably the ones that deal with a characters past like Garaa's.

I go along with that, FLASHBACKS SUCK!
Especially in Inu Yasha, because they always show the same ones, and noone wants to see them even once....

I join your Anime club, because all anime kicks ass, but original mangas are better like Naruto, Rurouni Kenshin, Shaman King, Smaurai Deeper Kyo, etc.

Yea I am more of a middle of da fence guy I like them both equally.

I saw a few episodes, and I found it to be intensely boring. It didn't really leave any sort of impression on me, I couldn't follow what was going on at all.

Yea it starts off pretty boring and almost caused me to leave but I stayed longer and I think it gets better.

Yusuke hands down. He would do a spirit wave after handily dodgin a windscar slash and then nail inuyasha in the gut before he can even do a backlash wave.

Yea I think it would cooler though if they were in high school cause Yusuke and Kuwabara both look like they should be in high school right now and even they arent stupid enough to get stuck in the same grade.

Lame power too, it was basically a spirit steroid injection...

LOL yea it most definitely was.

Well since Yusuke isn't a demon, Inuyasha wouldn't be able to use Wind Scar. Most of Inuyasha's moves with the Tetsusaiga would be useless, so he'd be more likey to use Blades of Blood and Iron Reaver.

Actually, form what I heard...
SPOILERS FOR YU YU HAKUSHO SPOILERS FOR YU YU HAKUSHO.
After Sensui kills Yusuke, Yusuke's demonic ancestor possesses him for a while and kills Sensui. Afterwards, Yusuke's demon side is awakened, so he would technically be part-demon.
Not sure if that would make him susceptable to Wind Scar and other such attacks though...

Ah. I never saw that far into YYH. I gave up during the Dark Tournament (God, I hated that fucking clown dude), so yeah, after that part he would be susceptable to Wind Scar.

The Dark Tournament Saga gets incredibly lame toward the end, especially the Bui vs Hiei fights, in which they exchange increasingly more long-drawn-out giant energy attacks, ala DBZ.

Younger Toguro was the singularly most lame villian of all time. Rita Repulsa from Power Rangers runs rings around him! >:^(

Anyway, if it's all right with the authority figures here, I shall be changing my character from Zappa to Vyers, who hails from Disgaea.

1) Fooly Cooly
2) Outlaw Star
3) Berserk
4) Hellsing
5) Full Metal Alchemist
[6) Yu Yu Hakusho ^ ^]
{ I also enjoy Serial Experiment Lain,ROD The TV, Kiddy Grade, Boogiepop Phantom, and Blood Reign: Curse of the Yoma, among others]

Yeah, younger Toguro was pretty lame. Still, I agree with whoever said the clown guy was stupid. That make-up was the dumbest superpower. MUAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! I HAVE PAINTED PRETTY PICTURES ON YOU!!!!! FEEL THE PAIN!!!

Whoever it was in the Dark Tournament who dressed like a clown and was completely full of himself. The announcer commented that he had a firm butt.

The anime you're calling "Lain" is actually called "Serial Experiments Lain" so that could be shortened to SE Lain.

So I tried watching Fullmetal Alchemist of Cartoon Network. I didn't view it as a good omen when the opening credits were different. I figured "Well, maybe it's just some credits I haven't seen yet" (I've seen very little of FMA so far). I decided itwas still worth a shot to watch. I didn't even make it past the first line before I turned off the TV.

I haven't seen the anime but I read the mangas:

*SPOILER ALERT*

A poor guy, called Hideki finds a computer on the streets (=Chi) .
He likes "her" a lot, but there is also a human girl he kinda likes.
Chi is a very special computer, she's from the Chobit series and she has a lot of secrets, but she doesn't really remember much. Of course there are some "bad" guy who want Chi back and some friends who help Chi and her owner Hideki. The last thing I read is that the 2 bad guys (who are also computers) talk about the creator of Chi.

*SPOILER END*

that's the story so far.
I didn't really like it, because it's, as you said, a bit of a love hina remake (even though I don't know which one came first^^), just not as funny.

Well, I'll be getting some FMA DVD's soon from my friend (he's buying them for me), so I pretty much have decided to quit watching FMA on CN, but I know I'll be tuning in to CN next Saturday to catch FMA, along with Stand Alone Complex, YYH, and IY.
