Thought it was about time we had our own anime thread, now I'm getting addicted to it I feel we need a dedicated area to go anime mad. Maybe we will find some more anime fans on here as well .... ANYBODY? Say hello!!!!!

@Anonymous User OMG Ryan, right you won't believe this ... but I'm up to episode 8 now ... and I'm quite getting into it, really! 

 

Spoiler
All the characters true colours are coming out now, Makoto's obviously the villain of the piece and you want him to get his comeuppance, but Kotonoha may be the victim but she's also a bit psycho and is definitely one fortune cookie away from boiling a bunny, and Sekai may be playing the victim as well but she's manipulated the whole situation right from the start to get Makoto and doesn't like it that he's not now playing the devoted boyfriend ... who is the villain, who is the victim, it's all turned into very grey areas and ...

 

... blimey, I tell you what, I'm actually looking forward to watching the next episode now! Cor blimey gov, that must be some dodgy jellied eels I had mi old mukka!!! 😄

 

PS look at you with your Friends knowledge ... I wonder what sort of weird demented pub quiz team we would be if we all got together ... I can add obscure history of horror movies 1912 to the present day to the mix .. . @caseyb1993 what's your specialist subject???!!! 😄

@Andy woah woah woah is this School Days you're talking about? I've never watched it haha, specifically avoided that particular one but gee whiz you seem to be loving it! What a pleasant surprise!

 

(That language brought back some veru strange memories hahaha)

 

Oh yes, you don't want to start on my Friends knowledge! I've yet to be beaten in a quiz! We'd be amazing though! Covering all the most important bases!

@Anonymous User Yep, School Days. He wanted a unique love story so I gave him one. 😄

Clannad as well of course. 🙂

 

I'm finishing Death Note again before I watch Cowboy Bebop. Only about 10 episodes left. 😮

 

I was listening to The Real Folk Blues from the C.B soundtrack and the song from the finale. Bang......

Such awesomeness! 🙂

 

I like the Unity episode but not my favourite. That ending though! Then Jerry has to ruin it. He is such a Jerry! Haha.

 

I'm slowly getting into Archer now. The animation seems too robotic for me though.  😮

 

@Andy My subject? Anime/Manga and cartoons obviously. 😄 😄

@caseyb1993 Hahaha oh boy you sure did give him a unique one! 

 

Clannad is ❤️ can't even say anything about it.

 

Ahh right okay okay! I heard that Your Name is getting a full 4K release too! I'm absolutely getting that..

 

So good right? Do you know if it's on Spotify? I'll have to save it on there if it is.

 

Yeah the ending to that episode is what got me. I don't think I inhaled once during that sequence I was just like ._.

 

Oh Jerry..what will we do with you? Love that quote from him when he crawls back on his hands and knees.

 

Ahh I never gave Archer a go to be honest. Did you ever watch Moonbeam City? That was my favourite animated series on this side of town. Only got 1 season though..never released in the UK so I don't know what they expected.

@Anonymous User Your name is pretty good! I watched it using a mate's amazon prime the day they didn't renew it so lucky there! 🙂

 

I don't have Spotify so don't know if it is on there.  I just listen to the soundtrack on YouTube. 🙂

 

That episode is such a Titanic ending. 😞

 


 

I love that speech Rick gave him in a later episode when he is being eaten by a snake. Did you ever hear the snake go "ooofff" when Rick says "she was Rick's daughter Jerry, she had options!". It's hilarious! 😄

 

Nope can't say I've seen Moonbeam City. It doesn't ring a bell either lol. 🙂

@caseyb1993 I know but I wasn't expecting THAT final episode in a high school anime (altho I've worked out they have middle school in Japan so they are actually 16 year olds, not quite as bad as I thought!!! Have you actually seen the show or just mentioned it because you've heard of it? If you not seen it don't read the spoiler but ...

 

Spoiler
But seriously THAT episode .... I knew something was going to happen but didn't think Sekai was going to be the one to kill Makoto but then when Kotonoha lured her up onto the roof and I'm like oh no ... Then look in the bag and I'm like OH NO ... then I don't think you're really pregnant and it's OHHHH NOOOOO!!!! and then WTFFFFF!!!! and OMGGGGGG!!!!!!! and then on the boat I'm like OH MY!!!! and just ... WOW!!!

 

No seriously when you and @Anonymous User have been going on about how anime really grabs you emotionally the ones I've seen so far haven't done that but this one! I wasn't convinced for the first few episodes but from half way on its become some kind of gripping soap opera ... I've been

 

  • bored
  • frustrated
  • annoyed
  • laughed at how unbelievable it all is
  • shocked
  • gripped
  • enthralled
  • heartbroken
  • depressed
  • confused
  • surprised
  • drained

First anime that I've got to the end of and just thought wow what have I been through, I get it now! Loved it! I feel like I need time to recover before I get back on the anime bandwagon though, what a journey School Days has been! 

 

THANKS @caseyb1993 ..... Phew, I feel like I need a break to process it all before I get back on the anime bandwagon tho! 🙂

@Andy I have seen it before but a few years ago. It didnt stay with me like Death Note did but the last few episodes did freak me out like you! 😮

 

I think it caused alot of controversy when it originally aired and that is what interested me. 😮

 

BTW, remember when i told you about Elfen Lied? 

I read that your Stranger Things was inspired by that so... Smiley Tongue Smiley Tongue
