General Discussion » Bleach fans taking over cosplay conventions.

Pointless thread is pointless.
I'm not sure what I saw more of at the london expo... Bleach or Naruto...
Anyway it just makes it that much more awesome when you spot someone cosplaying something unusual like Dokuro-chan, man that was epic.

@Sonata: I went for matching avis on GB and here, I have Jin's tattoo from Tekken on Giant Bomb and one of Renji's tattoos from Bleach on here, I'm sure I'll have had enough of it and change it eventually though :P

General Discussion » Vice Survey: Reviews!

1) Video reviews for anime, text reviews for manga.
 
2) Both.
 
3) No spoilers please ^^
 
I think it would be cool to do quick look/first impression videos of anime when you've only seen 1 or 2 episodes, and then full video reviews when you've seen a good handful of episodes or maybe a full season. I also think video reviews should be split over the staff more fairly like with the Giant Bomb crew. Oh and if I'm totally honest, I'm not a big fan of geekachu, but I know other users are, so if geekachu can stick to the videos he is in and stay out of video reviews I'll be happy, I think video reviews could do with being a little more professional. Seriously if you can make them anything like the video reviews on Giant Bomb that would be awesome, I know they review video games so it's different, but their reviews are the best on the web in my opinion.
 
I'm glad to see you guys take the opinions of us users so seriously, that's always nice to see, maybe I'll come up with some more details ideas later on.

General Discussion » The HAT

Goku, Ichigo and... I guess Naruto.
Sorry but they really are the biggest contenders. And you can't not have Goku in it, that's just ridiculous. I can't think of a more well known anime character than Goku.
 
I know One Piece is a pretty big thing. I just don't like it.

Off-Topic » Any relitives on Anime-Vice

My bro signed up on Giant Bomb but then stopped using it... he might get an account on here some day though, I got him watching quite a lot of anime.
I have my best friend on here though, she's not as active on here as she is on Giant Bomb but hey. She's family to me.

General Discussion » Do you Care about (anime) pirating?

@Chengy said:
" I live in the Uk, so pretty much no anime gets aired on tv anymore, and the few which do, are dubbed and i friggin hate dubs beyond words can explain, so if i want to watch a series, i pretty much have to find and watch a fansub. And i dont really care i do it either, if i didnt the only anime i would of ever seen up till now would be dragonball, pokemon, digimon and the first few seasons of naruto.  Oh yeah, tv companies are complete retards when it comes to anime, coz its a well smart idea to show the same 3 seasons like 5 times before showing the next season, then friggin repeating all those another like 4 times before another new season and then half the time they just drop the series and not even finish it.  so yeah, i watch it online, and i dont regret it at all.   Pretty much my take on "piracy" is downloading things which you can get from the shops, if its stuff not available in stalls or are going to be a piss take price to get from another country, its just not worth it. "
Yeah I live near Chengy so he pretty much summed it up for me. I could see myself buying a few things though, I wouldn't mind owning the Bleach movies for example.
 
I'd watch subbed anime on TV, it's just... not on TV over here.

Bleach, considering how  the Dragon Ball movie turned out... I wouldn't even want to risk a similar thing happening with Bleach...

Dragon Ball » Is Ki Magic?

@Newdeath said:
" No. Ki is based of the concept of qi or chi that in turns means the life-force within the human body in Japanese and Chinese culture. It isn't magic."
This.
 
There are characters in the Dragon Ball franchise who can do magic, it's a totally seperate thing.
