What series are you watching now?

Big B · 06-10-2004, 03:51 PM

As the title says...
Currently, I'm watching Martian Successor Nadesico again...funny as hell and so tongue-in-cheek by making fun of it's own genre. If I feel brave, I may watch Eva again too...I'm starting to be sane again, can't have that.

Whatever I review, I watch, but I think that's pretty much a given.

Watching Nabuto... great series, 100 episodes fansubbed. Not licensed yet, so it's still legal to download it in the US.

Big B · 08-10-2004, 09:27 AM

You mean Naruto right? Whoever liscenses that is going to have their work cut out for them...

littlesaj · 10-10-2004, 06:07 PM

i have just started watching Neon Genesis Evangelion and it is great, i have only seen 7 episodes so far,it is a shame i have got the subbed version but as long as i understand it then there is no problem for me, i am going to watch the movie tokyo godfathers next as i have heard a lot of rave reviews, then maybe excel saga or escaflowne as im not sure which one i will like better, i am slowly getting my collection up and running

Big B · 10-10-2004, 06:48 PM

You'll probably have to watch NGE more than once to get it. If you end up liking Excel Saga, you might check out Puni Puni Poemy. It like a more insane version of Excel Saga, and really pushes the limits (of any decency ES didn't trample)...so be warned.

Yeah, Naruto. Sorry, FAT FINGERS... :p

littlesaj · 11-10-2004, 07:03 PM

how many eps is puni puni poemy?

Big B · 12-10-2004, 02:08 AM

2.

It's one DVD.

Big B · 15-10-2004, 06:02 PM

Picked up Najica: Blitz Tactics. It's almost making fun of fanservice by how much it has. It would be appropriate to have a pnty shot counter...yeah, it's that bad. Secret agents, humanoids, fast cars, action, and, uh, very healthy ladies. Pretty much the same elements James Bond films are made of.

Tigger · 16-10-2004, 05:22 PM

"Fist of the north star" makes me feel funny in my special places.

u can get series 1-12, 6 dvds, from alot of stores for like $30. its on the Sci-Fi channel on sky in the UK at 5 in the morning every morning. i set my sky+ to record em and i just watch them when i get back from work.

theres also a fist of the north star arcade machine where u wear these gloves and u gotta hit these punching pads that pop up .. it really hurts ur arms after it asks u to do a special move where u gotta hit the pads as many times as possible in 30 seconds.. sooo much fun.

littlesaj · 17-10-2004, 09:53 AM

how amnys eps is naruto? i have found out so far that there are 104 but is there more,has anyone heard of berserk, blue gender, escaflowne, girl nest door and bastard? these are some i have seen in my local HMV, some are only 2 or 3 epse but i like the longer ones like blue gender so i might go for tha one, anyone got any idea of what any of them are like?..

Big B · 17-10-2004, 12:50 PM

Naruto is still ongoing. As for the rest, I've heard of them all, but only seen Escaflowne. If you've got mixed gender groups, that'd be a good title. I thought it was okay, but it never really was engaging to me. It's a mecha series, but more from a schoolgrl's perspective, meaning more lovey-dovey stuff. It's not bad, but it just doesn't appeal to me. Watch it for yourself and decide tho.

Blue Gender looks pretty good, but I just haven't gotten around to watching it yet.

littlesaj · 31-10-2004, 01:51 PM

i have finsihed watching evangelion and it was good until about 17 eps then it started getting weird and it felt like i had missed something, i am going to have to watch it again but i am going to watch a few movies instead of a series as a series requires a lot of concentration which is something i have a hard time at doing with some series. i have noticed that all the women wear short skirts or short shorts all teh tiem, just a shame they arent real....

Big B · 01-11-2004, 03:30 PM

Most people don't get Evangelion the first time through. As for the short skirts...I believe that's what we like to call "fanservice".

Big B · 17-12-2004, 05:49 PM

Watching Gundam Wing...or "You're watching a mechaanime?" Woah, dude!

I'll probably watch Please Teacher here shortly too...now that I've got the whole series.
