I don't mind reboots if they are well done. I am mostly interested in the visual makeover.

Berserk look yuck with that 3D.

And btw, Break Blade 5 is so far the best.

Break Blade 6

Another good one even though the story isn't over, very far from over in fact.

Basically, the story is about a good loving honest to god farmer boy who got dragged because some king and his queen (if you can even call her that) are too dumb to just, you know, surrender peacefully.

So what if they killed the royal family? DEAL WITH IT.

Now the famer boy is nothing but a deranged, war scarred boy.

Mawaru Penguindrum is awesome. It's like somebody found an unreleased mid-90's shoujo anime. It's so weird and hilarious. And weird.

Extreeeeeemely late to the party, but I just finished Samurai Champloo.  Animation is consistently enjoyable, and although I don't care much for the mains the new personalties introduced every episode was fun to watch.  Weird compliment, but I liked how they successfully offered the full breadth of asian facial structures/body types without having to resort to making folks look european as so many other anime do.  Except for the women that is, the protagonists for any given episode still look a little too in line with tropes.

Maybe its the EhDeeDee but towards the end I was confused about why it was important for certain authorities to stop the trio from reaching you know who.  I felt it was never properly explained why the government was involved.  In fact I felt a lot of plot points were hastily explained (or merely hinted at) and swept under a rug.

The only thing I didn't like about Samurai Champloo was the ending.

You think everyone's dead, but oh wait, everyone's actually alive and they all live happily ever after. That just felt like a complete cop out

And coming from the guy who directed Cowboy Bebop, you'd think he would know how to handle endings properly. Oh well.


Anyway, gonna watch Redline in a minute. Excite. :D

Redline was fucking awesome, holy shit. Easily some of the best (if not THE best) art and animation I've ever seen. Every frame of the show is just amazing. God damn.

The movie itself was great too. Lots of good action and the entire cast is full of likable and interesting characters. Just awesome all around.

the anime industry makes no sense

There are new Berserk and Hunter x Hunter anime.  Both are long running manga with unfinished anime adaptations.  You'd think they would continue where each series left off, but no.  Both are retelling the first arc.  At least with FMA Brotherhood the story was different since it was based on the manga.  It will before the chimera arc of HxH gets animated, and since Berserk isn't even a series.

that said, I wouldn't mind a Rurouni Kenshin reboot series to tell the entire revenge/Enishi arc and remove all the bad filler.


uh, so they're actually doing this...kind of.  It's a two part OVA of the Kyoto arc (the shishio business).  Enishi/jinchu arc still shafted.

I don't mind the art that much, like PD says, it has that retro megaman look which is a perfectly legit style of its own.

Just worried about the story because Hino sucks and having aliens (which completely failed in OO movie).

Quote
The distributor Virgin Records will release INTERSTELLA 5555, the anime musical created by the French electronic music duo Daft Punk and anime/manga creator Leiji Matsumoto, on Blu-ray Disc in the United States on October 4. The feature-length work already received a DVD release in the United States.

With INTERSTELLA 5555, Toei Animation adapted the songs from Daft Punk's Discovery album into a space opera story. The two members of Daft Punk made cameos in the anime, just as they did in Tron: Legacy, another film for which they contributed the soundtrack. Matsumoto's numerous credits include Galaxy Express 999, Queen Millennia, Space Battleship Yamato, and Space Pirate Captain Harlock.

I really want to like No. 6, but it's hard. The setting is interesting, the characters started out pretty good and not your average cliches, and it's got a pretty cool look to it, but, man oh man, is it moving at a GLACIAL pace. It's a ten episode series and by episode six we still don't know ANYTHING. We don't know why the city of No. 6 is so bad [other than vaguely Orwellian leanings], we don't have a villain, we don't know anything about this mysterious disease that's killing people or where it came from or where it's going, we still barely even know anything about the characters. Sion is kind of the good guy, but he hasn't done anything at all and hardly has any real presence in the series. Nezumi is vaguely antagonistic at times and maybe homo-tastic for Sion at other times, but we don't know why he hates No. 6 or really anything at all of his back story.

There are four episodes left, FOUR, and there's barely been any movement of the plot.

I was going to say that. I like that design a lot, looks like something Leiji Matsumoto would have designed, the girl too. In fact, I like all of the designs except for the main character.

The second series/half/cast of Genshiken's manga is freaking weird.  The entire original cast is now just supporting the new one and it's this absolutely crazy story.

This guy cross dresses as a girl.  But when he's a guy, he has fantasies of his girl self watching his real boy body, who then fantasizes about boy love scenarios involving himself as a boy and another man.  But he is totally straight.  But his girl self wants his boy self to be gay because the girl self gets off on boy love.

in this new chapter, he doesn't want one character to get with this girl because he's a perfect bottom and should be with men.  or something.  I'm so confused.

this is all set at a convention where they're buying smut manga too

It's weird how the character art is totally different in AGE but the clothing outfits look just like SEED/OO.  They must have a separate clothing designer who does all the Gundams now.

Also that PV was really really boring, which makes me a bit scared about the show's pacing (since L5 stories have terribly slow pacing).

revolutionary girl utena (bizarre yet sweet)
cowboy bebop (cause its in every list)
neon genesis evangelion ( the reveal that evas were alive was amazing the first time i saw it)
(some nostalgic anime here)

I dunno, lots of good choices...

manga is easier but full of things unfinished/untranslated (such is my curse):

goodnight punpun (just amazing in every possible way)
crime and punishment: a falsified romance (im hooked but the translator just abandoned it ;_; )
liar game (hiatuses, also cute art)
zetman (best art)

1. Neon Genesis Evangelion
2. Monster
3. Kaiji
4. Welcome to the NHK
5. Aoi Bungaku
6. Akagi

I didn't include any movies because then my list would be too hard to put together. No room for Nausicaa, Spirited Away, Mind Game, End of Evangelion, etc...
