So I'm thinking of checking out School Rumble, Soul Eater, and FMA Brotherhood next. Heck, maybe I'll check up on some oldies as well. I must say that Funimation did a great job leaving episodes open to public view.

And I wonder when SL will finish KnK, eh?

I've been reading the Pokemon Specials, and the storyline got a bit unbelievable with the Elite Four.

Finished the first movie last week, but I've been busy this week and haven't had time. Will probably be able to watch the 2nd movie on Saturday or Monday.

Just wait until the Ruby/Sapphire arc.

So yeah, checked out School Rumble and Soul Eater today.

School Rumble seems to be the classic Shakespearean Romantic Comedy. Ditzy girl loves calm guy, Badass guy loves ditzy girl, targets unaware of the others' affections, constant attempts to show affection, all leading to failure in hilarious ways.

Soul Eater appears to be some sort of Halloween/Gothic-themed action anime. Kids get scythe-people, work for death, and protect the peace by eliminating evil souls. Nice little fight scenes, some good artwork, and some semi-mature humor add the strawberry on the shortcake.

Yeah, I know that these are dub clips. So sue me. Smilie
Maybe I'll re-watch Samurai Champloo next.

Just started watching Cowboy Bebop, and the first episode really hooked me. It was like an urban jazz, Big-O like show, except more actiony. I love it, and I love that the main character is voiced by Steve Blum. I love that guy! Smilie

Isn't he also the voice for Mugen in Samurai Champloo and like 10 chaeacters in the entire Digimon series? And TOM? And 2 chars of the later Dynasty Warriors series? And the voice for Ulquiorra when Shattered Blade came out but then they chose to replace him in the series? DAMN this guy has done a lot of awesome.

I want that! Sometimes, I wish I lived in Britain.

Then, I remember how awesome America is, so I move on.

That's a shame. :/ Did they get a new VA for Al or is his voice just deeper?

They're replacing their old male VA with some chick.

Saw the whole Cowboy Bebop series on DVD at Best Buy for $45. Good deal? Bad deal? Input?

OH BOOHOO! ANGSTY McANGST IS TOO COOL FOR GIRLZ!

And KnK is now selling the entire series+soundtrack!

And I never knew that Viz now shows anime other than Naruto! Yay Viz!...and Funimation!...Yay!

And why is it that I suddenly really really like School Rumble all of a sudden?!

JoshSL 23.02.2010#819

Aaaaaah.

I finally got around to watching KnK 2, which was perhaps a bit too gruesome for my liking, but still very much enjoyable. Didn't like the ending though, especially after all that build up. I guess that's their way of telling me to watch the rest of the series ^^;

I'm following Bleach (the manga) and, with less excitement, Naruto (also the manga) atm. I was reading FMA but forgot for about 2 months and then figured I'd read up someday when I got enough time... seems I just add more to read up on. Smilie
Also recently started reading 07 Ghost, in which I absolutely looove the characters and connections.

I tend to keep away from anime, since most are only based on the original storys, the mangas. And all the filler arcs usually piss me off. Dun like! Some might be alright I guess, but I still don't like when others add to stories that aren't even theirs from the very beginning.
Although I did watch all of Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, and barely read anything. Gonna read the manga and all the side-stories aswell eventually. Loved it!

Other than that, I seem to have a hard time actually liking a manga or anime enough to follow up on it. People keep giving me tips, yet not many pull through. Smilie

Well I'm pretty sure the manga won't be able to capture the anime, but some of the side-stories are pretty awesome Smilie

Same here, I've practically given up on Bleach and Naruto so I'm not really following any new releases, just old concluded ones. Although I really should give One Piece a try.
Here's an unexpected tip: Digimon Tamers! Smilie

I've eyed One Piece myself quite a few times, but never made an effort to do more. Might follow your lead on that one, although I'm somewhat picky with the whole drawing-styles aswell, and it looks weird. O_o
Aaah, digimon! Was ages since I last saw anything about that! Dunno where to watch it though, none of the sites I usually use have any I think.

Ikana 24.02.2010#824

Geez, stop um-ing and ah-ing and watch One Piece! Don't let the art style or first few episodes put you off; it's amazing stuff once you get into it. Smilie

Chronologically, the order goes 2, 4, 3, 1, 5, 6, 7. So 4 will tie up most of the loose ends given by 2. Don't forget to watch past the credits, though. Besides showing a preview for the next movie, there's usually a little clip that'll leave you stunned. The omakes before the movie starts are pretty cute too, especially when they feature characters from other Type-Moon series :3.
