I just want to ask something.....Do adult males watch Sailor Moon? I'm currently watching just one episode out of it and I'm not sure if its worth watching the rest of it as a whole.

I'm an adult male and I've watched and enjoyed the 90's one. It's less an adult male issue and more is it to your personal taste issue, just look at the bronies.
@Socar Well, I wouldn't determine what I watch based on what others do, and would instead try to just base it off of whether you enjoy it or not. Plenty of people of all ages and genders love Sailor Moon, and I know several "males" who are nostalgic for it because of their childhood. While I have yet to get into it, I do plan to at some-point. It is reputed for being quite good, but like I said, leave it up to your own tastes. Maybe watch 2-3 more episodes and make a decision.

I am SO excited to see how CLAMP decides to follow up the original's ending. Hopefully the god awful Tsubasa Resevior Chronic Back Pain and XXXHolyCrapPleaseTurnThisOff are completely ignored.
@Emaan Hunter x Hunter...ahh that is definitely one of my favorites - probably my absolute favorite shounen battle series - maybe. (Always hard to pick between HxH OP and Jojo) FMA might relieve your Hiatus x Hiatus blues - it's definitely an amazing show. It's been quite a while since I watched FMA 2003 at this point - so idk if it would fully scratch the same itch. They're both great battle shounen series but they do have distinct tones & flavors. FMA was a monthly series & seems to have been conceived with a full narrative from the get-go. HxH on the other hand - like most other "weekly" (aha...whyyyy) series - seems to be more based on an arc by arc basis. Both are a bit "darker" than your average battle shounen but I would say they are fairly different. That said if you loved HxH I don't see why you wouldn't like FMA - I'd highly recommend it. Just don't expect it to be exactly like HxH.

tbh, Parasyte mostly feels old school in its female characters (and not always in a good way )
otherwise, it feels like it fits fairly perfectly in the post Attack on Titan era, shonen meets horror-like anime. Despite the manga being like 20 years old.
Well, what I mean by "old school", is it's connection to the real world.
It remindes me of most of the anime I grew up watching (Kenshin, InuYasha, Cowboy Bebop, Yu Yu Hakusho, Ghost in the Shell, Evangelion, etc.), of which all had some sort of connection to the real world, which made them more fascinating, IMO.

FLCL was one of the first anime I ever really got invested in (watched it all on Adult Swim a few years ago), so it has a special place in my heart. I'm interested to see how this turns out. I got really excited at first, but it seems like others are pretty disappointed/annoyed. (I mean, just look at the comments in that article.)
Yeah, I like FLCL, and will probably watch the new series, but it won't be as special. The original, in it's own weird way, was a coming of age tale, and that tale has been told.
It also worries me that AS is co-producing it. The last time they had their hand in reviving an anime, we got season 2 of Big O, which wasn't that great (which in theory, shouldn't have been as hard, since they just had to conclude an unfinished story, rather than find a way to followup a complete story).

I think it will be fine. Even at worst, FLCL is such a unique series (especially in terms of anime to be as big as it was over here), that it will at least be a strong and interesting change of pace from other series.
it helps for me that I never watched FLCL for the story for the most part. It was more about the experimental craziness and that's really all it needs to capture for me.
So I have been seeing a lot about Your Lie in April on my Facebook and decided to check it out. At first I thought I wasn't going to enjoy it, just another story about a guy falling in love with a girl and blah, blah, blah.
Wow was I wrong. It hooked me in episode 2. I am starting episode 5 and this is probably all I will watch for a while, until I finish it. Only see 4 episodes but I do recommend it, hopefully it continues to be good.
People keep saying the Xbox One doesn't have Backwards Compatibility.
I don't think they know what Backwards Compatibility means...
