Whoa I didnt know there was an Anime thread. Hm.. the only ones I watch are: Kenichi: Historys Strogest Desciple, Naruto Shippuden, Fullmetal Alchemest, Used to watch Grappler Baki, Bleach rarely, Hellsing, Devil May Cry.

Anime I hate:
I hate DBZ becuase they would spend like 3 episode powering up or chargeing for an attack. Pokemon (evey season after 3 I think), I used to be a fan but now... Digimon,

Currently playing: Tales of Symhonia (again), Tales of the Abyss 3DS, Fire Emlblem Fates, Majora's Mask 3D and Xenoblade Chronicles X.

Lol, nice one. Just beware though of the price (Nearly £20 for Voices, £14 for PPIOED on Amazon iirc). I'm a bit hesitant at buying those right now to say the least

Haha, yeah. Think I'll have a hunt for those elsewhere instead
Or maybe I'll pick up some Ghibli films I've missed. Still need to see Only Yesterday and Kiki's Delivery Service.

EDIT: Ended up buying Only Yesterday, Kiki's Delivery Service, Tales from Earthsea and Spirited Away from Play.com £28 for 4 DVDs isn't bad going
That should serve as a suitable distraction whilst everyone else is playing Portal 2 (which makes my comp vomit smoke if I even think about it, lol). How long does Play usually take to deliver?

In my experience, up to 5 days >: [

I can live with that. Would be annoying if it was three weeks, but five days is nothing xD

Anybody know any good Animes about street racing/cars? (one that's not Initial D)

also does anybody know a good Anime about space?

I believe Initial D is really the only one.

Animes I've watched: Clannad, Fullmetal Alchemist, Fairy Tail, School Rumble, and Full Metal Panic! (Hated the ending of Full Metal Panic! _)
I HIGHLY recommend Clannad! The second season: Clannad After Story will definitely have you in tears. I've only watched the first season of Code Geass so far. Planning on watching the second soon but I've heard rumors that there's going to be a third season... Is this true? o-o

I always thought Speed Racer was more circuit racing meets Inspector Gadget than actual Street Racing.

These are generally considered to the best (I might've forgotten a handful though)

"space" is a bit genre-non-specific though, it could be anything from epic space opera to slice of life, if you narrow it down I could give better suggestions. Or do you just want an anime about the vastness of space?

I have never heard of any of those shows, and that makes me sad.

Actually, the only anime I've been watching is Pokemon, mostly to check out the Rare Pokemon from Johto. It's actually been mildly entertaining so far, but I don't think I'll watch anymore of it. It's really repetitive. I'm thinking of picking Gaiking Back up if I can.

I may have been reluctant to buy PPIOED and Voices at their prices but I did just buy End Of Evangelion for about £13. Cheapest I'd seen it beforehand outside eBay auctions was £20 so I snapped that up, completing my Evangelion DVD collection (Death & Rebirth being the exception) until Rebuild 2.22 comes out here next month.

So, I know this isn't anime but I thought some of you might be interested. There's a fairly new live action adaptation of "The Girl Who Leapt Through Time" set around the daughter of the original novel's protagonist, where she travels back 40 years in search of the mystey man from her mother's past. Some of you guys may have already heard about it but there's a newly announed DVD release coming out in the UK on May 2nd so I wanted to just give you guys a heads up

I knew about the live-action film, but I didn't know it was going to hit UK. Awesomesss o:

EDIT: Apologies to mods if this classes as advertising, but I'm planning on launching a UK-focused anime news site soon, and wondered if anyone here would be interested in writing for it (you don't have to be in the UK). The beta can be found here with a few articles. Some days I can write and some days I really can't, and today would be the latter, so don't take it as my usual standard, lol. I suspect I'll be rewriting tomorrow. I was focused more on adding functionality and modifying the theme than the articles themselves. But yeah, anyone interested in writing for it, contact me.

I'm doubting between getting Kiki's delivery service, Nausicäa o Porco Rosso (Mononoke's one for sure ). Which one you reccomend considering I love Whisper of the Heart, Howl's, Totoro and Spirited Away?
Thank you so much!!

I was looking for news for my anime site, and came across a new, legal, simulcast streaming service for the UK. AnimeNewsNetwork and KAZE teamed up to create it, and it seems pretty awesome

http://www.anime-on-demand.com/

EDIT: Just watched the first episode of of an anime called 'C'. It only debuted in Japan last week, and so far it's pretty damn good. Think I'm gonna have to get a season pass for this thing~

I actually preferred Duel Monsters. Yu-Gi-Oh took things way too seriously for a show about a freakin' card game. Duel Monsters felt more like a parody and really nailed it. It felt exactly like what a show about a card game should be: one big, fat joke.

Except (I'm assuming you're referring to the same original series I'm talking about, from 1998) that the original Yu-Gi-Oh was from before the series was about the card game. Yes, the game did appear more in the original series than the manga, but only in episodes involving Kaiba.

The only reason I don't like Duel Monsters is because I've only seen the 4Kids dub.

And well, this...

Sorry, I got confused. I was talking about Dual Masters. It's been so long since I watched either of them, I got the title confused. If you haven't seen it, look it up, it's actually pretty good.
