General Anime Discussion

on Hulu is the English subbed Blue Dragon anime. Yup based on the game on Xbox 360. I really wanted a Dragon Quest anime but since Blue Dragon basically is Dragon Quest and same style. Works great and fills my need. So far I like it. Too bad you can't buy it.

There are a couple Dragon Quest animated shows out there actually. I've never seen them so I can't vouch for them being good. They'd probably pale in comparison to the DQ tv drama anyway:

That's the edited version that got butchered. Talking about the Uncut Subbed version. They said they would only release it if a lot of people watched on Hulu..that was 2 years ago.

Someone reccomend me a good anime. I havent really sat down and watched anime since I finished Darker Than Black a while ago. I would like a Action/Drama maybe thriller, or just something really cool and original, trailers are always good to go along with some names, thanks

AG, you should watch Moribito. Here's a trailer:

I caught a couple eps of that on Cartoon Network when it aired, seemed decent but i'd have to watch more. Anyone have anything else?

I'm watching Inuyasha Final Chapter atm. It's strange watching the show again after so many years of the anime ending with a dead end. It's quite refreshing to see the show with all the filler sucked out as they clearly tried to fit everything that was left in the manga in a scant 26 episodes. The show moves a lot faster and characters that have been hanging around for what seems like forever are dropping like flies.

AG - You could try Phantom: Requiem for the Phantom. I thought it was very good, but not a lot beats Darker than Black.

Decided to get back into anime again by continuing Gintama. Extremely funny stuff.

Last Exile
Revolutionary Girl Utena
Katanagatari
Black Lagoon

I don't know what you've seen, so I'm just throwing those out.

[AnimeGamer183]

^ I have seen Michiko to Hatchin and its fucking awesome.

I also watched the first episode of Attack on Titan, and I have to say I think that may have been one of the best first episodes of any anime i have ever seen. It was that good, it grabs you and keeps your attention the entire time. Unfortunately I only watched the first ep. I am gonna have to find some way to watch the rest, crunchy roll cut off the HD stream after the first ep... sure I could watch it in standard, but who wants that when you know its in HD some where?

Does anyone else think Japan is finally trying to get away from the moe style?

[AnimeGamer183]

what do you mean the moe style?

[silent killer]

the stupidly cute, blobby looking art. Stuff like K-on Girls und Panzer. Basically anything by Kyoto Animation.
I hope that genre becomes less intense. It's okay in small amounts but when the whole show is just about that it becomes unbareable and detestable.
