Project A-ko

Me and my older brother watched so many oldschool animes on Saturday mornings back when the Sc-ifi channel was cool. I don't remember the names of half of them. This one sticks out though:

Anime used to not be afraid to be dark, ugly, gritty, and violent.

[MCD]

Infinite Ryvius

Fans of animu space operas need to watch this.

Character driven show with your usual emotional breakdowns. Recommended. 

[Junpei the Tracer!]

Currently watching that and El Harzard with their superior english dubs.

[Phoenix Dark]

pd have you watched berserk yet

I think I want to watch Golgo 13 instead, after seeing the clip from that music video. Does he assassinate a businessman or a president?

[Himu]

That would be The Professional: Golgo 13, which the music video had clips of. It's a movie and widely regarded as an anime classic.

Here's the trailer

oldschool anime

A lot of us, well, most of us in this thread have a thing for oldschool anime, which tends to be on the darker, more mature side.

[Bebpo]

Ore no Imouto is such a weird show.  It's a pretty good innocent family friendly mainstream comedy about hardcore loliporn 

It's one of those things that, even if its good, you can't really recommend to anyone irl.

Good taste!

My 2nd favorite anime of all time.  I looooved it when it aired.  Even bought all the R2s and got the last volume signed by Taniguchi Goro and Yousuke Kuroda.  It was the show that made me a Goro fan.  For the first show he directed it was GOOD.  The direction is really slick, hip hop cool meets great literature + mecha.  Like you said the emotional stuff and character paths get really good by the end.  Such a good show.  Most of the people working on Ryvius were amateurs.  I think the main guy's actor hadn't been in anything notable before it.  And it was the first big show for that Character designer who went on to do SEED as well.  It was kind of a "new staff test" show for Sunrise and it turned out extremely well.  I miss Sunrise

Too bad Goro made Gun x Sword and then Geass and threw his career down the toilet.

[MCD]

Gun X Sword is not bad, fun show if you don't get serious with it.

I like how Ichigo is acting like he doesn't care but he cares.

wait what?

It's about a guy whose sister is obsessed with loliporn games.

Also, it's hard to call it "innocent, family-friendly mainstream comedy" after The Scene in episode 4, where the creators go "Oh, yeah, we're supposed to be making THAT kind of show" and it gets real stupid for a few minutes.

[Himu]

You guys are going to scare Phoenix away. Shut the fuck up.

It's not any worse than stuff like Love Hina.  Ore no Imouto is a mainstream comedy that's fairly well directed with good pacing, good animation, likeable characters, and a quirky subject.  It's just a show that's kind of awkward to discuss because to a degree the intended audience is icecream.

Plus it's part of the "ska is coming back in Japan" wave by using ska bgm so I approve.

[Bebpo]

Also Super Robot Wars OG has like the worst art I've seen in while and I've seen Iron Man.  Every frame is off.  Nothing is consistent at all and the nudity fanservice is gross and overdone.

But I'll keep watching because I like SRW and I'm a fan of the story/characters/mecha.

[Vizzys]

 star driver is all the fabulous mecha needed this season

Sounds like they are sticking close to the source material.

[Bebpo]

SRW has very little female fanservice in the games.  Yes signature moves for female pilots have a signature bounce cut-in attached, but the women are all reasonably clothed and there's almost no fanservice (outside mecha) in the story or battle.

Lemme put it this way, you can play SRW games with your significant other.  You can't watch SRW anime with them.

Hey, I like it too! But that scene in episode 4 was dumb.

[Vizzys]

so he tripped and landed on her tits big deal

ANYWAY

I finished Darker than Black recently, slowpoke.jpg, dem collarbones, etc

just curious if I should watch S2 or pretend it doesnt exist

[Great Rumbler]

It's like the most overused cliche in the history of anime.

Definitely watch S2.  It starts off kind of wtf but it has some good characters and the ending is crazy.  Also watch the OAV at some point for completion.

Yep, that's the one. 

[Bebpo]

How can you even let that phase you if you've watched anime anytime in the last 2 decades.

It's a stock scene just like family having food at the dining table scene. 

[Great Rumbler]

Oh, if this was Samurai Girls or whatever's the latest harem show, I wouldn't be. But I thought, perhaps wrongfully, that maybe Ore no Imouto was just a LITTLE BIT better than that. Apparently not!

I mean, there actually have been romance/comedy shows recently that didn't resort to that.

[Bebpo]

Eva has it

I'm pretty about 95% of legitimate anime shows have a scene where a guy falls on a girl and is grabbing her boob.  Again, I don't see how that can lower your opinion of a show.  Maybe it every joke was a boob joke or something, but 4 eps in and one grab the boob joke is not really a big deal at all.

Oh, Bebpo. 

And the scene in Eva could potentially be seen as tearing down the trope, since Rei is such a messed up character that she doesn't even respond to it [unlike in most other instances where the girl freaks out and punches the guy].

Seriously?  In a show where the plot revolves around A DUDE'S YOUNGER SISTER PLAYING LITTLE SISTER PORN GAMES AND WANTING HER BROTHER TO TRY THEM? 

   And this is another show where 98% of the cast are various types of female characters.  It's all harem shit in one way or another.

Hey, it's not like I don't know where your coming from here or anything! BUT, the first three episodes had no real fanservice at all [aside from a few things related to the games] and then that scenes kind of comes out of nowhere and it's like "WOAH DETAILED UNDERWEAR SHOTS" and then goes back to pretty much no fanservice at all again. It's just kind of jarring.

[Great Rumbler]

Episode 5 part 2 of Panty & Stocking was amazing. 

The bitter tears that angry anime fans are shedding over this episode are even more amazing.

[Vizzys]

panty and stocking is definitely the most trolled show this season

and also the best

while i do understand a little where great rumbler is coming from,the episode also open with this!

Yeah, it's great to see all these people freaking out over it. 

[Purple Filth]

P&S is kinda boring to be honest and that second part in the latest ep was WTF.

Any show that gets the fanboys all freaked out is good for me 

[bork]

I haven't watched P&S #5yet, but just went skipped to a part in the second half of that episode...so it's like what South Park did with their April Fools episode?  Different characters...hell, different art style?  Awesome!   

The sperm "soldiers" episode from the other week was also amazing.

Its just crude humor being repeated over and over and over and over again.

its cool for a while then its like....yea.

[Bebpo]

Unicorn 2 was good.  I think the non-action stuff is just kind okkkk, nothing special.  But the battle scenes are sooooooooooo good.

I think the OAV will be better when it's actually DONE and you can watch it all back to back.

[Bebpo]

Sore demo machi wa matteru is the best show this season hands down.  I so much every ep.  Hottori is Yotsuba level of amazing character and the support characters are hilarious too.  Ep3 first half is just WOW

[Junpei the Tracer!]

Oh I missed the posts above. Still best Halloween ever though. Dual audio Gundam

[Junpei the Tracer!]

This is taking FOREVER. Plus I think I'm most likely going to have to wait for the 720p.

Just wait for BSS.

1080p?

My laptop won't be able to run that and there's no way to turn on subs on the 360. I'll have to wait too.

[Junpei the Tracer!]

A 720p just came out:

Star Driver 5 was really nice better than last week for sure.

[Himu]

Princess Jellyfish is gewd

[Madrun Badrun]

Gankutsuou: The Count of Monte Cristo is really awesome.  I'm 13 episodes in and so far it's one of the best animes I've seen.  Hope the end doesn't fall a part like so many other animes.

[Bebpo]

the ending is actually one of the better gonzo endings.  Almost every other show they did goes to shit in the last 5 eps.
