Champloo is on my very short list of awesome anime. :heartbeat
Gotta agree with himuro, first episode was incredible, it was all a decently entertaining downhill ride from there.
I think people have gotten spoiled by series that have these long-running storylines. There's a place for shows that have stories that can be wrapped up in 30 minutes. Absolutely nothing wrong with 'em!
well shit, pokemon was all about walking down the road having wacky adventures with ash, brocke, and misty. what series does that sound like?
Tsukikage Ran is a lot of fun, I own the set. The best ep is either the sake episode ooor the episode with their evil counterparts.
haha oh yeah I dunno how I forgot that one. I loved her theory that japan only had three kinds of people. Ninja, Geisha, and Samurai

Well it was even better when she accused Lady Meow (probably from china) of being a Ninja-Geisha haha. The episode is really fantastic. They got 'large obnoxious foreigner' down pat.
Yeah the dvd set is cheap but im sure you could 'preview' it somehow

:lol what show is this? Send me some of those preview links.
why do i get this ranma 1/2 vibe
From what I've read, the first Seed was never intended to have a sequel, so when Destiny was announced, there was no real story planned, no outline, no structure...they just kept pulling stuff out of their ass, which would explain why it's apparently so terrible. I know I must see it someday, since it's Gundam, but I'm not looking forward to it.
Seed has become its own franchise, apparently. Expect another Seed series soon. :-\
The next Gundam TV series is going to be one of two things from what I'v heard:
1. Brand new Gundam IP
2. UC continuity Gundam
Would Champloo be acceptable to someone who has an aversion to most anime? I mean, there's some decent stuff out there, but I've seen a lot of CRAP. Don't steer me wrong, people.
Plus, my Netflix account is just kind of idling, and I need something to watch.

I'm guessing if it's not Destiny, it's going to be a brand-new IP. There hasn't been a new UC Gundam TV show since V Gundam, and that's, what, 15 years ago?

There's been talk of adapting Gundam Unicorn (UC era novels and manga) into a TV series.

Oh, and I like Bebop, almost any Studio Ghibli, and umm... Akira? lol
GitS was a snoozefest, IIRC.

I'd be really, really surprised if that happens. As far as I know, no Gundam manga or novel has ever been adapted into a long animation form, be it OAV or TV.
If they were to do that, I'd prefer they adapt Hathaway's Flash or Crossbone Gundam. Problem is, Bandai wants new mecha designs so they can sell more merchandise. ;)
The biggest problem I have with Seed are the mecha designs. They're uniformly terrible. Why can't they hire Hajime Katoki to do the lineart?! Who's doing the design work for Gundam Unicorn? Is it Katoki cleaning up Yasuhiko's designs, or is it original Katoki art?
right on brutha
father_mike: > blade runner? Are you daft?

SAC is way better then Blade runner; and just saying blade runner as they both deal with simulator ideas.
OMG, Gurren Lagann is officially the anime of the year! I wish I wasn't banned from GAF right now. There's no one to talk to about it with on EB. :'(
2channel incident
Takami Akai, the producer of the series and a co-founder of Gainax, announced that he would resign his position effective episode five, which aired on April 29, 2007, over comments that he made regarding posts on the Japanese Internet forum 2channel. Akai and another Gainax employee, Keiko Mimori, made disparaging remarks about comments criticizing the animation style of of Gurren Lagann's fourth episode, completely directed by guest Osamu Kobayashi. With regard to reading the fan criticisms, he stated that it was "like putting [his] face next to an anus and breathing deeply." Fans later became aware of his comments, and he announced his departure from the company he helped to found.[4]

Holy fuck just watched the end; it kept me on my toes and I didn't know which way it would go. Also the baseball episode is my favorite I think.
Himu is fucking of his rocker. Every 2 parter in the series is better than the first 2 eps. Overall it wasn't quite bebop but it was still great. 9/10. I liked the differences it had to bebop; they go good together.

Even if there wasn't a Bebop, Champloo would still be a waste of potential.
