Title: Re: Another good thing ruined: Hulu introduces anime channel
Post by: TVC15 on September 26, 2008, 02:55:24 AM: Speed Racer, Astro Boy, Naruto, Death Note, and Mushi-shi. I don't know what that last one is, but it sounds like the sort of toddlers-in-panties shit that Himu and Lyte Edge love so much.
Title: Re: Another good thing ruined: Hulu introduces anime channel
Post by: MrAngryFace on September 26, 2008, 02:57:19 AM: Mushi is supposed to be good, never seen it. Apparently the new Knight Rider show this season is tanking in the ratings lol

Title: Re: Another good thing ruined: Hulu introduces anime channel
Post by: Van Cruncheon on September 26, 2008, 02:58:48 AM: yeah, mushi-shi is supposed to be decent. might was well use himumulu to check it (and death note) out!

You got Muckson and originalz here that know me personally. Plus I have met up with the J-Bores several times before. I don't dig them J-RPGs, man. I don't generally like to play anything RPG (except action like Landstalker) for that matter, nor do I go for strategy games. Nor do I play MMORPGs.

The fact that I played all the way through even Mass Effect is a landmark achievement. I didn't like Oblivion, I didn't like Blue Dragon, and I couldn't get into DQ IV for "recent" RPGs I have tried.

For most pedophiles, the sexual aspect has little to do with sexual orientation. People that appear to be straight males may go after little boys when they are in their zone.

no, the animu also shark jumps midway through

basically, the two live action movies adapt the first 7 books only give it a good, rewarding ending in place of "oh god this is so popular I can never end this"

it's incredibly obvious. the anime/manga introduces a whole new set of characters who suck total balls.

the anime sounds like it "jumps" at 26

it might be worth watching one or two "post jump" episodes just to realize how badly you need to stop watching it at that point

Title: Re: Another good thing ruined: Hulu introduces anime channel
Post by: Don Flamenco on September 26, 2008, 04:00:19 PM: The only way to enjoy Death Note is to watch up to the 13th minute of episode 19 of the anime, read up to the 35th page of the 4th book of the manga, then go watch the live action movies backwards while sitting naked in a tub full of warm honey. Make sure the subs are in Italian for the last 20 minutes of the movie.

The anime is fine, though they could've cut it short...it's still worth watching for the last episode alone.

She will confirm most of your stereotypes about anime-- she has no depth to her personality, only serves to be cute, hot, appeal to goth fetishists, get kidnapped, and perform the function of killing people/falling in love with the main character, who isn't all that into her because he's a male in an anime show.

The story is more intriguing than most anime, but it doesn't break the mold in a lot of stylistic senses--tons of repetition, awkward changes in the composition of the cast/story, etc.

Still-- hang on till the last episode. :)
