Talon Posted March 19, 2005 Author #126 Share Posted March 19, 2005 I hate Gundum Wing, all it seems to a bunch of people sat down and each wrote a speech about war or peace or war leading to peace, and then drew a anime around it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seraphina Posted March 20, 2005 #129 Share Posted March 20, 2005 You'd have trouble not getting it...they can't go an episode without delivering the message seven or eight times While you are right Gundam Wing was trying to deliver a deep, and heartfelt anti-war message (something about the nature of man I suppose), there are many, many animes that managed to say the same thing, only more artfully... It is possibly, of course, that it's simply the dub that was crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can get it thank you very much. No need for insults. But after hearing them recycle the same for every episode I just wanted something different.

The Caspian Hare Posted March 21, 2005 #131 Share Posted March 21, 2005 I kind of liked Gundam myself. I thought it was neat in a cheesy sort of way. There's something about watching giant Japanese war robots pummel each other that appeals to me. I also like the old-school Mobile Suit Gundam but I can't find it anywhere around here. The Ghost in the Shell movies and subsequent series are, far and away, my favorite anime. I just picked up Innocence on DVD, which means a lot for me because it's only the third DVD I've ever bought in my life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talon Posted March 21, 2005 Author #132 Share Posted March 21, 2005 I reall want to see Innocence but I'll probably have to wait months until its released over here. I still haven't bought the series... weird I kinda wanna see Gundam Seed, I here its a vast improvement over Wing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lotus_spring Posted March 24, 2005 #133 Share Posted March 24, 2005 I have just watched Macross Zero. The story is about the reapperance of the Birdman in the Mayan culture, who are the Sea People originally. It is strikingly similar to Erich Don Daniken's God were astronauts. One instance is that the prehistoric Mayans possessed highly advance technolgy, much more than our modern's. And it potrays Et intelligence as a form of godliness. One aspect is that Japanaese often mix supernatural with science so as to make it believable and realistic. For example there are numerous supernatural abilities, together and supplemented with science in anime, quite different from western animations. In fact, very different.

x o i s k Posted April 9, 2005 #140 Share Posted April 9, 2005 To add on, the reason Akira was so special, is because the animation was way ahead of it's time...It came out sometime in the 80's, and added new cell animations never used before.

Talon Posted April 20, 2005 Author #141 Share Posted April 20, 2005 According to reports at Digital Spy, there could be an interesting new digital TV channel coming to the UK courtesy of Jetix (formerly Fox Kids). Dubbed "GXT", it is apparently going to be a channel aimed at "12 to 17-year-old boys" with "Japanese animation" said to be a part of the schedule. GXT is planned to go live in Italy on the 1st of May, with the CEO for Jetix Europe quoted as saying "Once we've seen how successful it is in Italy then we will make a decision as to whether or not to bring it to the UK." More news on this as we hear it, although a little research suggests that the Italian GXT is set to air anime series including Inuyasha, X, GTO and Ranma 1/2. News has emerged today (on AnimeOnDVD) that Geneon are co-financing a new Hellsing OVA series. The number of episodes is unknown, but it is said to be based on the original manga material. Also, Geneon are said to have acquired two new anime series in "Erementar Gerad" and "Ergo Proxy". http://www.animeuknews.net/ Weta Workshop's official site has added a selection of previously unreleased concept designs for the planned live action Evangelion film. According to Weta Workshop, the production is "on hold." http://www.wetaworkshop.co.nz/projects/fil...lm/neon_genesis Geneon has revealed three anime acquisitions at the MipTV trade show currently ongoing in France. Geneon will co-produce a new Hellsing OAV series with Gonzo Digimation Holdings. Each 35 minute long episode will be adapted from the original Hellsing manga. Geneon will be the North American distributor for the 23 episode Ergo Proxy anime TV series directed by Witch Hunter Robin director Shukou Murase and produced by Manglobe, the producers of Samurai Champloo. Geneon will distribute the Erementar Gerad anime TV series in North America. AD Vision previously announced acquisition of distribution rights to this anime series at the 2004 Anime Expo convention. http://www.animenation.net/news/index.php Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Raven Posted May 23, 2005 #146 Share Posted May 23, 2005 I used to watch Sailor Moon all the time. Now I watch Anime shows once in a while, such as Cowboy Bebop or InuYasha, and I read Mangas. I don't watch them as often now because I don't follow them so easily. But I do like how there are not that many superheroes in Anime, although Sailor Moon was pretty much nothing but female superheroes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FIRE STORM101 Posted May 27, 2005 #149 Share Posted May 27, 2005 i love anime and heres a theory of my, no proff that its true, but somthing i think about alot what if, every anime and/or manga was based on true events in an alternet demintion like i said, i have no proff, but i like to think that vampire nazies attacked london(like in the hellsing manga) and a 16 year old girl is going back in time to see her half deamon bf(of corse, Inuyasha) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeetlemanEXE Posted May 30, 2005 #150 Share Posted May 30, 2005 (edited) My favorite anime is My HiME. The first 16 episodes and the last one are funny, but almost every episode from 17-25 made me cry. My HiME is about girls with magic powers called HiMEs, but don't think it will be like a typical magical girl anime. There are 12 HiMEs, each with their own monster called a Child, and no, they aren't cute mascots. If their Child is killed, by monsters called Orphans or by another HiME, the person they love the most dies. There's a big plot twist at the end of episode 16 which makes the episodes from 17-25 tearjerkers. I'd recommend this anime to anyone that loves a great story and cool monsters. BTW, the last screencap is from episode 17. Its a pretty good example of what happens when you p*** a magical girl that controls a fire breathing monster off.
