Chinese Cartoon Thread [Anime stuff]

This may be the place to ask. Has anyone bought anything from Kotobukiya? Figures, that is.

I know somebody who has that Jason figure, but I don't own any myself.

Im planning to buy the Hestia figure soon.

Hmm well I'm watching druaga at the moment but there was the two that sounded similar from a previous season or something Zankyou no Terror? and zetsuen no Tempest. I forgot which plot went with which and now I can't actually remember anything about either plot >_> Haven't watched them yet though.


Rokka no Yuusha, Overlord, Shimoneta.

Any of those SFpsy? >_>

And it will, just not in this unit's lifetime ;_;

Zankyou was a recent anime, yeah, by the writer of Geass iirc. I didn't watch it, it just never grabbed my interest.
You might like Zetsuen though, it's mostly sophistry inside an adaption of Hamlet/The Tempest with magic and it's own spin on things. Most people I've got to watch it end up really liking the show. It's SFP too.

Shimoneta is waaaaaaay out there for you, like, psyduck and cover when it comes to it. Lewdity's the name and haramity is the game.

Overlord and Rokka have tones of fanservice, but if you can make it through most other anime, it shouldn't bother you. Unless upcoming episodes dial it up to 11, which I don't see happening.

Hmm well geass never clicked for me, not even a sliver of interest for some reason. Probably a defensive reaction to seeing something unholy back on B.next.

Hamlet was one of the more tolerable Shakespeare plays, so that might be worth a look <_< SFP is always appreciated too.

Noted, to be avoided at all costs. The clip I saw linked in a chat a while ago should have been enough of a clue.
;_;

Tones I can stomach, HOTD levels I cannot. On par with Kancolle or worse/better?

Btw, does anybody have a MAL profile?

I just watched Madoka Magica: Rebellion. I got confused.

What's there to be confused about?

I just started watching this:

Btw, does anybody have a MAL profile?

ironically, of course.

Cool, is it OK to add you as a friend? i'm adding you as a friend

But yeah

preordering this soon

the one i finished last? well it was technically nagato yuki-chan no shoushitsu, but i've been watching it since april... nagato was OK... the last finished airing anime i, uh, finished, was choujigen game neptune... it was a fun anime, blanc best girl.

what am i watching right now? well... uhh, i just started watching ro-kyu-bu today... as for seasonal anime, i'm watching:

Gakkou Gurashi!
Working!!!
Charlotte
Monster Musume no Iru Nichijou
Wakaba*Girl
Miss Monochrome: The Animation 2
Teekyuu 5

recommendations? uhh, i dunno i need to know the genre lol... but of course gotta say little busters

I have the idea that Charlotte is something to do with Key, is that correct? <.<
If so, I might have to give it a shot.

Little busters was great, I'll be rewatching that soon and I might enjoy refrain more knowing what it's all about rather than it just seeming like needless misery to shit all over a great show >_>

yeah you're rite about charlotte

yeeeah rewatching

i have yet to actually rewatch anything. i've been saying that for like 2 years, i kept saying i would rewatch kanon, little busters, etc... of course i haven't... have you checked out little busters EX yet?

Heh, well I tend to watch a bunch of new stuff then throw in a rewatch once in a while or in anticipation of a new thing. Some shows are an exception, I've put myself through watamote about 7 or 8 times now, which has pretty much succeeded in making me immune to cringe material. Black Lagoon, Angel Beats and Jormungand are ones I could (and have) watched over and over again.

I haven't seen EX yet, the name put me off way too much <_<
That and the revelations about the source material kind of just tarnished the whole thing. Is EX halal (Just like little busters with more characters or something) or is it like... ew? <_<

we went over this on b.net a looong time ago lol

yeah ex is basically little busters all over again except with newish characters (they've been in the series before, just that they're the main focus now) and without the team... bascially riki helping out 3 more characters

Yeeeeeeee lol, I still remember the conversation just not quite all the details >_>
Sounds good though, I might watch all three in order soon.

Edit for your edit, yeh that's what put me off.

weeeelll

the thing with EX is that different parts take place in different parts of the series

like, one part takes place AFTER the 1st season... i think?

then another takes place DURING the 1st season and then an episode later, AFTER The 1st season? i dunno it's weird

and the 3rd part takes place AFTER refrain? lmao i can't remember

and that's why it's called ecstasy, lol

Lmao it doesn't really matter tho

Lol, so it's ecstasy because the timeline is off it's head? >_>

I just watched Madoka Magica: Rebellion. I got confused.

I haven't seen any of the madoka stuff yet <.<

Tones I can stomach, HOTD levels I cannot. On par with Kancolle or worse/better?

On par I suppose, there's a boob grab in episode 1 of Overlord, with Rokka it's just flashy character design so far.
Nothing to be worried about, for both, the fanservice is a lot less than HOTD.

lol same, really

There's one that I watched recently at the behest of a friend I haven't seen in over a year, one I dismissed almost immediately despite his insistance and wouldn't have given a second though, and I would have been severely disappointed if I had.

And that's Witchblade.

For a borderline-porn anime based on a borderline-porn comic whose only selling point is scantily-clad women duking it out, Witchblade has one of the most entertaining stories (for anime anyway) that I've seen in a while. It's bizarrely good. It doesn't even have the right to be as good as it is. Everything from the animation to the characters (and the development thereof) to the dub acting are all spot-on.

Usually I'm pretty good at discerning the bullshit from the diamonds, but it was one of the few hidden gems that pleasantly surprised me.

Probably a bit too haram for my tastes but I do know about the hidden gem stuff. There have been a few that I've gone into it thinking 'ehhhhhhh see how it goes' and then gone 'holy shit that was brilliant' >_>
Sadly it's been a bit of a while since I've seen a new 10/10 but there is always a chance that the next one I watch will join the others in the best shows category.

The fanservice doesn't push the plot into the backseat, I assure you, it's more just there, while the story is happening. I tended to forget about it until the boobage actually came up in the dialogue, but obviously I can't speak for anyone else.

Well that's somewhat good to hear, but considering I'm a ridiculous starch-arse over anything remotely lewd if it goes from a bit of implied stuff or the odd bewb joke to anything more, I tend to switch off/drop it.

lol so good timing

I went over to see what my bro was doing, and he told me his friend (who went to jpn) bought me stuff

he said he got me something from angel beats (which is great... maybe now i'll rewatch it <.<) and durarararararara (i actually haven't watched that series, guess i got to now lmao)

i actually wanted something from little busters but angel beats and durarara is still cool

Watamote

....

:I

;_;

Just kill me now.

but it's an anime of nothing but cuteness!
Right?
...RIGHT!?

Yes...

;_;

But after the fourth or fifth time I watched it, it stopped hurting and now I just feel cold when it's on rather than ready to curl up into a ball and die. It's been about two months since I last watched it, so I think that's time for round 9 <_<

If I make it to 10 without an heroing, I think I win a prize.

You should watch Dog and Scissors.

Jesus... I don't even know if I'll be able to put myself through he eventual s2.
Though the OVA wasn't that bad the two times I watched it.

I drank a lot because of that show.

durarararararara (i actually haven't watched that series, guess i got to now lmao)

If you're watching Durarara, get ready for a long haul, so far there are three seasons, a fourth currently airing and two more to come.
It's a brilliant show and there's a lot to it.

Oh. Then you probably won't enjoy it as I did, since every major adult woman has at least a G-cup.

About 40 episodes to get through...
It's doable.
