Just read Mai Chan's Daily Life by Waita Uziga. It's pretty extreme by anyones standards. I'm also reading some Hideshi Hino and Shintaro Kago (his manga Abstraction is one of the best pieces of surreal art I've ever seen.)

I have some Fist of the North Star manga coming soon in the post so that should keep me busy for a while.

started watching One Piece there a couple of weeks back and am completely hooked, awesome fights and some hilarious moments

also really enjoying Cross Game and Dance in the Vampire Bund atm too

cherryghost · 10-02-2010 07:04PM

just finished Zombie Loan and FMA

watching School Days and... Azumanga Daioh 0_o

DandareRastaban · 10-02-2010 07:58PM

Ok so..... I finished Code Geass yesterday (in 2 days, each for a one season) and I must say it's AMAZING SERIES!!!

If anyone is obsessed with tactics (like me), like badass genius characters (like me) or plainly enjoy watching nice mecha fights - IT'S ANIME FOR YOU !!... also girls seem look better with each episode (mostly Karen as for me XD )

Right now I'm not watching to much since lack of time... but I do watch:

Kiddy Girl-and : quite fun, very nice art-style aaaaand... I'm the fan of first series (Tat-tadah!)

To Aru Kagaku no Railgun : seem to lack something compared with the To Aru Majutsu Index... but still is fun (maybe it was made more for girls this time and that's why I'm not satisfied?)

Omamori Himari : OH MOE!.... ok I did read the manga earlier and it's mangaka is a Daisenpai for me (hail). Story is real fun and seem light... and does bear nice amount of ecchi fanservice

Chu Bra!! : ... one girl said to me it's a weirdest anime ever... I didn't agree but then I saw the first episode and... damn in many terms she was right >_>. I must warn You! To watch this You must be either 12-16 year old girl or be a plainly insane person >_<

That's it for now ^^'

cherryghost · 10-02-2010 08:41PM

yeah cant wait for Code Geass R3

Fnz · 15-02-2010 01:10PM

Just watched the first season of xxxHolic.

Some words to describe it: Long, drawn-out, slow, repetitive, predictable, frustrating.

Episodes that are not resolved and/or don't seem to matter. Main character who constantly takes abuse without ever standing up for himself in any serious way. Little subtlety to the emotional parts. Unsatisfying end to the season, with barely any character growth having occurred.

really? i thought it was ok. the animation style was different and amusing, the stories in each episodes were captivating (not all the time though), however, i was frustrated at the lack of conclusion on the main characters love interests

Word of advice, read the manga. It's much better than the anime especially when read along with Tsubasa Resevoir Chronicle.
The xxxHoLic anime also cuts out all of the Tsubasa references (kind of integral to the plot later on) if I remember correctly.

I'll pass on the manga - I watched 24 episodes of the anime so feel I've given it a fair shake. I'm loath to invest more time into something really didn't 'grab me'. It's disappointing.

I never even heard of 'Tsubasa' until you mentioned it there.

Reckon I need to stop allowing Clamp abuse me with their anime products. Haven't seen much of their stuff but don't remember enjoying any of it. Beyond xxxHolic... think I've seen Tokyo Babylon and X - the fact that I'm not certain isn't, usually, a good sign.

Re-reading the Umineko no Naku Koro ni visual novel.
Anyone else heard of this? It's properly amazing but I don't know anyone in Ireland who's read it.

GisforGrenade · 26-02-2010 12:11AM

Watching Halo Legends slowly, savouring it a bit, the best shorts would have to be Origins I and II and the Duel, the rest is a bit meh.

Numina · 28-02-2010 01:57AM

About to start down the path of Kanon, Air, and ef - A Tale of Memories/Melodies. Should be fun. Also going Code Geass R2 (which is boring me with it's outrageous plot, frankly) and Trigun (which I'm quite enjoying.)
