Been around 10yrs since I’ve seen this series myself and from memory it was unexpectedly good.There were some follow up OVA’s that got a way too melodramatic for my liking but I found this 52 ep series to be one of the better shoujo anime series out there…..to this day thinking about it actually.PRETEAR kinda walks in it’s shadow as well but yeah

The One Piece itself just seems to be the thing that once acquired gives you the title of Pirate King – A glorified trophy which could just very well be a picture of Gold Roger and his crewOnce Luffy attains it he would probably set himself another goal or attempt to just restart the whole One Piece process item leading onto the next great pirate era while he and his ...

Has Anime TAUGHT You Anything About Japan? -- BURNING QUESTIONS.
Good article SamThis is a very hard question to answer because i think anime perpetuates alot of Japanese sterotypes and idioms and by answering this question to a point i am exposing my own ignorance on the culture in reality.Alas anime has really thought me how creative and intellectual the Japanes can be and has given me an insight into their culture and our own cultural differences more than anything ...

One Piece is on a very slow burn in these early episodes. As Luffy gets his crew together the story starts to snowball and becomes more like the show your watching now at the tail end. As Top8cat mentioned (and your buddy Sam may also atest to this as well) once you get to Arlong park arc round the 30 episode mark the series drastically becomes more engaging.Thats not to ...

@Dream: I second Legend of the Galactic Heroes but its takes a serious fan to delve into that series. Worth every minute tho....and since there's only a fansub of it floating around with the older animation style, most people find it extremely unappealing.An amazing series without a doubt

ATTACK ON TITAN: Best Spring 2013 Anime? - - THE VICE PIT.
Eh, i wouldn't hold it against ya if the show falls off in the next couple of weeks...happens all the time with anime.There's never any lack of creativity, mostly just follow through or big plot holes that appear over time. Alas there is nothing wrong with promoting something that shows promise. It just sucks when you end up looking like a shmuk for hyping something up. Good vid

oh yes and maybe not worth being in the top 5 but Guyver is pretty grpahic. in fact the death of Guyver in episode 5 still gives me chills.Discression is advised...although dated animation can make it easier to digest

I watched DBZ back in the late 90's and only saw the Original DB about a year ago.WOW.They are like 2 totally completely different beasts. I was actually floored by how good the original Dragonball is - in many many ways superior to DBZ and feels more like a conventional one shot anime story until the very very end which leads nicely into DBZ.Makes me feel silly for hesitating to ...

Dropped this show after season 2 and even wrote a review about it somewhere on my MAL account as to why.After season 2 ended years ago i just remember feeling deflated and pissed off with the love and predictable story elements and from what i understand it looks like i jumped off the boat at the right time.

I appreciate a brutally honest review of a show and commend ya for taking the time out to write up on it esp if it was a chore to geth throughI've always avoided this show because it pretty much looked / sounded like everything you have described hereAt some point i will still give it a go.....i have to really....just so i can justify my own critisims when the time ...

haha. Out of curiosity i thought i'd take a glance and see just how "bad" this episode really was and yes this one was crap, totally forgettable and just bleh overall.This is my first time seeing these earlier episodes in dub and i have to say (like i've said before) the English dub still makes the show sound more korny than it is. Sorry Funimation i know your doing your ...

Batman is Anime, and Zelda's an RPG. These are a few of the most dumbest (sic) things.
