I'm working on Monster off of Netflix. A well regarded anime on Netflix with Japanese subs not lame ass dubs. It's a great murder mystery joint. It's 70+ episodes so I have a long way to go...but it's quite engaging thus far.

Fuggin' Netflix. They pulled Monster out of their line up while I was watching it. Lame ish. Had to resort to downloading it. 25+GB. :shocked:

By the way I also started a new joint, which came out this year called Kids on the Slope. It's VERY reminiscent of Swing Girls, the movie, starring Ueno Juri.

I've only seen the first three episodes but it is a cool slice of life story about kids in a rural high school in Kyushu with a focus on Jazz music. It's pretty cool so far. It's got some good laughs.

Check it out Swing Girls lovers. It's free to watch subbed on Crunchyroll.

It doesn't revolve around as many female characters as the movie but it's cool. It takes place during the summber of '66.

I've seen a few more eps of this series. It's really good. Already a bit disappointed that it's only 12 episodes set in Kyushu.

Best new anime I've seen in some time.

Sounds great. Im checking it out.
Netflix has done that several times to me so I quit my membership. had it happen once on Crunchyroll too.
Have to recommend Giant Killing.
Terrific soccer anime about the unorthodox coach of a previously losing team.
Super.

In my case, stumble head over heels drunk until I come to a stop at the gutter at the base of the hill.
