    If you're liking it by episode 5 then you're going to love it by episode 11. For me, episode 11 got me properly hooked on the show.

    Just hit episode 11 now, but I was well hooked before that. I think it was episode 9 where Akane chews Ginoza out of it for talking down to her in front of the enforcers, that moment right there was brilliant. I didn't think much of her as a character up until that point, but it really changed my perspective on her and she seems a much more interesting protagonist

    Have you tried Jormungand or Black Lagoon? I liked them both.

    Have put SOA 2 on hold for the moment, I started watching Outlaw star and thats much more enjoyable , I remember watching it on cartoon network late at night years ago.


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,067 ✭✭✭Gunmonkey


    Finished off Parasyte a few days back, so good. Now have to find something else to binge on.

    On that, Viewster has posted up Outlaw Star to watch for free (maybe some ads).

    Must give it a view to see how much Firefly ripped it off :p

    Really, really liked that, had one of the best settings in a series for a good while.

    In the cuurent season, am actually liking Etotama. Has some nice self-referential jokes and digs at the anime industry (excessive fanservice, the mystic ray of light covering boobs, decline in DVD sales) and the 3D combat scenes are well animated, if you don't hate chibi style stuff anyways.

    Squid Girl. Those squid-puns inkvaded their way into my heart.


  • Registered Users Posts: 70 ✭✭WilsonIRL

    You should watch "Daily Lives of High School Boys" (Danshi Kōkōsei no Nichijō) next, very similar and one of the funniest series ever made.

    Whats peoples opinion on Samurai Champloo, heard good things on the interwebs.

    Watching a few things.

    Re-kan is fun.. about a girl who can see ghosts, and her friends at school just roll with it.

    I had to watch "Is it Wrong to Try to Pick up Girls in a Dungeon?" just for the name... the fact that it's pretty good is just a bonus.

    Hello! Kiniro Mosaic. I'm really just watching this just for Karen... if it were just 20 minutes of her talking I'd think it was the best thing ever.

    If this scene from season 1 doesn't make you laugh you have a heart of stone:

    Finished Squid Girl (Ika Musume). One of the few anime I feel work better dubbed, English puns are so much better compared to their Japanese counterparts. It's a shame the second series wasn't dubbed.

    If you don't find Mini-Ika the cutest thing, well buddy you gotta be squiddin' me.
