Title: What animu are you watching to distract yourself from harsh realities?
Post by: Joe Molotov on September 29, 2008, 07:08:32 PM
I downloaded some Gundam 00. Can the local Gundam scholars tell me how/if this series ties into the greater Gundam Universe? I've only seen Gundam Wing.

WE ARE THE PAIN THAT'S REQUIRED TO BRING ABOUT CHANGE.

Pretty much the only animu on my radar as of late is Slayers: Revolutions. Damn series better not have ended already, dammit!

Nothing at the moment, but I was just found out that there's a Funimation channel. How long has it been around?

Only Detroit Metal City can fill the hollow void in my wallet.

Gundam 00 doesn't tie into any other Gundam series.

I just watched 5 Centimeters Per Second  :'(

Joe: It's its own universe. 00 is not connected to any other Gundam because it uses our calender system.

Good, that's what I thought but I wasn't sure.

I really hope Tohru Furuya voices a character in the second season. Maybe the pilot of the original 0 Gundam?

I have 3 of the 4 dvd's of Haibane Renmei and I'm meaning to watch them some day but never get around to it. Outside of Ghibli and Initial D I don't really watch much anime, how would you anime fanbois rate Haibane Renmei? I want to watch Rave Master, I hear that's right up my alley since all the places they go are named after music genres.

It's one of my favorites. A very slow [up till the final episodes, mainly] and surreal show, but it presents an intriguing world and interesting characters.
