I watched mnemosyne ep 4, recently subbed by doremi, and no one else yet.

It takes place in 2025 unlike the first few taking place in the earlier 1990s.

humanity has evolved its internet into a VR like system, thus a large population of people are addicted and become jobless bums spending all their free time in their internet lives

Its a pretty good depiction of what I believe will happen to our society eventually, assuming such insane speed wireless internet becomes popular and there are VR headsets of some sort. Its not happening by 2025 for us of course

anyway everyone's favorite lesbian immortals are still doing there investigative thing, same office, same familiar "vodka means water in Russian" joke at the beginning of the episode.

this episode involves maenos now grown up son who is an internet addict in denial.. wont spoil anymore, watch it

Is anybody watching Chiko, Daughter of 20 Faces? Episode 6 was pretty crazy. I mean, I know they were grooming Chiko to be this master thief and she is the title character of the show, but still...

I didn't expect them to kill off almost the entire rest of the gang in one massive gun battle!

Are you fucking kidding me?! Not that I should be surprised considering what led up to it, but does Eva really just end with an hour-long rambling angst-fest? I've never prayed so hard for a giant robot battle in all my life. That shyt was ridiculous. For most of the series, it's your basic monster-of-the-week stuff with a healthy dose of teenage angst and only a few brief hints at a larger plot, then in the last few episodes it's like HOLY CRAP LET'S CRAM AS MUCH PLOT IN HERE AS WE CAN PLOT PLOT DOESN'T MAKE MUCH SENSE BUT OH WELL PLOT PLOT OH YES PLOT ALL OVER MY FACE!!!! Then in the last two episodes it's like, oh well sorry we couldn't resolve the plot at all for you like were probably expecting, but here's some shit we wrote while we were totally high last weekend and it seemed pretty profound at the time. Sorry we couldn't be arsed to even animate it, but that's shit costs money.

Does End of Evangelion somehow redeem this whole crazy mess, or should I just abandon all hope?

The wife and I watched the whole TV series, and were really enjoying it, right up until those two final episodes. The fountain of hatred that sprang forth over those two episodes was remarkable and justified. The movies were basically an answer to fan demand that it be finished properly, provide some good answers.

I sometimes wonder if there will ever be a day where a game would have a chance to make a massive sequel just based on fans being dissatisfied with the original's ending.

Did anyone watch the "Fansub Documentary" on Youtube? It's pretty good...the guy basically picks apart all the fansub groups and shows what's wrong with them. Good for a laugh.

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #319 on:** June 08, 2008, 10:30:08 PM »

Some of the early Slayers dub stuff is funny. They even poke fun at it on the interview extras. Next and Try were much more even

I just googled this, and it's probably the worst "documentary" ever.

a) he's a professional (or so he says) and they are not

b) he gets paid, and thus has to be professional, and they do not

c) he's british

d) why the fuck does he care, he can read the moonspeak anyway

I dont even watch this shit and I think he's a big fucking pussy. He is probably a GAFfot. Or Himuro.

First half of the first Full Metal Panic series is fun, then it devolves into generic mecha anime that isnt that interesting

Great Rumbler · « **Reply #331 on:** June 29, 2008, 12:45:44 PM »

FMP proper is pretty good at times, but go with Full Metal Panic: Fumoffu instead.

Actually, it began airing several months prior to Cowboy Bebop and is based on manga from 1997 which is itself a spinoff of a much older manga.

what's it a spin off of? It never even reminded me of Cowboy Bebop. I thought Trigun was the poor man's Cowboy Bebop.

Outlaw Star is decent. Nothing memorable though.

Future-Retro Hero Story. It doesn't have an English release though.

Both shows are about intergalactic bounty hunters and feature space battles. They aren't really all that similar, your post just reminded me about an argument I had one time.
