I've been watching lots of Digimon lately. Further in the first series gets really good, and I missed most of it so it's not just nostalgia driven xD

But my favourite series has to be Tamers. I keep craving to watch more but I'm gonna wait 'till I've finished watching the original series.

Greatly considering downloading Gurren Lagann ASAP. Anyone got any info on possible DVD releases?

I win.

GUYS.

LIBRARY WAR! WATCH IT!

I DIDN'T KNOW LIBRARIANS COULD BE SO HARDCORE.

One of these days I'll be a Librarian First Class.

So what does that Gurren Lagann'd theme Gundam do? D: Does it hold DVDs?

It's the limited edition DVD box set of Gurren Lagann.

Late Christmas present ftw.

So it's all of it? Cool, if my impatience for a UK release wears out then I'll just import a boxset =D

Alright then. *Adds to \'To Watch\' list*.

I\'ll probably get around to it in a few weeks.

Someone recommend me some good long-running shonen anime, I\'m running out. I already watch One Piece, Bleach, Naruto, Hitman Reborn and Gintama. And I\'ve finished Dragon Ball (and Z) and D. Gray-man (boo for it ending early. )

I\'m not a fan of excessive fan service, but I\'ll probably give it a go.

ONE PIECE. Subbed. Best thing ever. Seriously.

It starts off a bit slow, but give it 15 episodes and you\'ll be hooked.

I might start watching Samurai X, I saw the first part to it and it was pretty awesome.

Mm, definitely watch Death Note. It\'s great. I\'m kind of undecided for Naruto. Some of the fights are great, but the stories are often a bit \'meh\' and the humour isn\'t that funny and the fillers are...ugh. But overall, it is a good anime. Watch it after One Piece.

EDIT: Actually, I just remembered Rock Lee. Definitely watch Naruto. XD

Woops, I'm a little late to the party. Let's see...

Yu Yu Hakusho 1, 2, 3, 5
Yu Yu Hakusho DVD (just some episodes)
Naruto 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7
Pokemon up the ass (no joke, it's piled everywhere)
Yu-Gi-Oh cards

...DAMN! That's it??!?!?! I really need to get some new mangas. Seriously....

Yeah I watched a bit of death note at Superlinks house and it was awesome, knowing me though I will prolly by the megaman ones first cause I hhave seen some episodes of nt warrior and starforce and I quite like them so those will prolly be my first

Just started watching Black Lagoon, in the funny English dubs.

Naruto is slow. It's good but I don't think it's much better than good, other than the Rock Lee parts.

Unfortunately giving Rock Lee hardly any screen time in Shippuden just ruins it.

It's just the first 9 episodes. 70 fucking bucks. o_o Normally I don't usually spend that much for an anime, let alone 9 episodes. But Gurren Lagann is that freakin' good.

70 bucks just for 9 episodes. That is such a rip off. You cpuld get them cheaper somewear else couldn't you?

That's why I don't pay for anime. It's stupid expensive, and the quality is often inferior to fansubs anyway. I'll happily pay for manga though.

Ah, true. I meant that the stories aren\'t as good early on, not the actual lengths of the arcs. Sorry.

And yeah, the later fights are long, but at least new stuff is constantly happening. Like in the fight against Oz, it\'s constantly developing. Not like in Naruto or Bleach or Dragon Ball where it\'s mostly just staring at each other.

I know i'll sound like an old record but I totally recommend Welcome to the NHK. Such a great series.

Just finished LoveCom, and an honestly that was one of the most, if not the most, enjoyable anime I\'ve ever watched. Very well-written, humorous, and just overall great.

Now to watch the live-action movie...

I recorded an episode of Big O awhile back and forgot it was there. I watched it tonight, and OMFGJMF, is that one of the greatest things all time. I just wish I knew a place to but the DVDs and/or books. The best!

OK, everybody needs to watch Gintama 98 and Gintama 99 right now. Doesn\'t matter if you never watch anything else from the series, you must watch these. Any gamer will find them absolutely hilarious.

LOL, Zega fanboys waiting for ever for Shenmarou sequel.
