Anime - General Discussion Thread

As mentioned on another thread, Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind, Porco Rosso, and The Cat Returns will be released on DVD in the U.S. on February 22, 2005... :woot:

Anyone watches Oh My Goddess? I am so pleased that they have starting a new series in Japan. First episode aired this week.

ive been waiting for that, the OAVs arent very satisfying cuz its so short, but i still love them.

anyway, i have some new favs:: Gankutsuou, which is based from the Count of Monte Cristo, Genshiken, Yakitate!japan (also reading the manga), my hime & bleach

watched gits - Innocence, a good anime. There's not a lot of action compared to the first movie but the story is still good and the animation is very nice.

@koolaid: I've seen the OVA and I'm looking forward to seeing Oh My Goddess TV. The OVA was too short but good. If I was giong to rate it, it's probably the same rank as Video girl Ai.

Oh my goddess and Video Girl Ai was ones of the first animes that I watched. They are the reason that I got into anime. I saw Mini-goddess, but Belldandy wasn't in it all that much, and therefore I did not enjoy it as much. I even collected the manga for this series.

For anime that's been released on DVD, I like the reviews at http://www.animeondvd.com/reviews/index.php (covers all regions). The site also has an upcoming releases page.

I have watched it in French, and even in french, it was hard to understand the story and the philosophy.
I liked the story and the animation, but i would have prefered to see motoko again in this second movie...

Thanks a lot ccwf :bow:

Here's an updated comparison: http://www.compare.dvdbeaver.com/film/DVDCompare7/princessmono5.htm :)

The only anime show I actually ever watched the full series of is none other than Cardcaptors - aside from that, nothing else. lol

I'm primarily looking at anime for its artistry work no doubt. That's pretty much it.

watched appleseed - both old and new version. the 2004 version seems like a prequel/alternate sotry line. The graphics are really nice although the skin shading/reflection seems a bit overdone. I like how the eight-legged tank was rendered, very very nice.

Im into anime too!! My favourite ones are Fushigi Yuugi , Boys Be, Love Hina.. :woot:

HAHAHA. i've seen all 3 an di liked all of them. hehehe.
eniway, watched first ep of Oh My Goddess! tv series. As i have suspected, its a retelling of the story, albeit more detailed one. Nothing to complain so far... hope evertyhing gets fansubbed before it gets licensed.

Full metal phanic!! man this anime is great!! :hehe:

just bought Ikki Tousen vol. I & II, and Mezzo vol. II
