I personally can’t vouch for the greatness of Haibane Renmei, but going with how everyone seems to love it, it’s gotta be worth something. Princess Tutu is also apparently good but I never got to finish it :(

Wait, how do you know Macross isn’t good if you haven’t seen it? Macross Frontier was okay but definitely not as good as SDF.

Giant robots and galactic songstresses? Boku pasu.

As for trolling a bunch of people with School Days that would be pretty funny… just as long as it doesn’t end with an enraged, disillusioned audience stuffing MY head in a bag.

Set it up so that you can’t be blamed. A School Days marathon was being run over night at this convention, and I happened to be there, and no one else knew about the ending. It was sexual.

I think you’re the first person I’ve talked to about Arjuna that didn’t make a joke about hamburgers. I wasn’t really keen on it but I’m definitely going to check it out when I have time.

Now that you mention it, I remember at least one funny scene with hamburgers, but eh. It’s kind of like how Aria has one or two whacky scenes—it’s still awesome.

loliki-nii-chan! ;A;

(P.S. Also, why do you hate my blog so?! ;_;)

Touch. It’s slice-of-life, but not the “nothing happens” kind.

It’s on my life for you, and I’ll watch it for you. It better be awesome.

Watch Kaiba and Mushishi. I don’t care for them, but I want to know what you think. Two hippie shows if you ask me. If you disagree about either, we can play Winner Takes All.

I’m not expecting much from Kaiba, but I’ve heard intriguing things about Mushishi. It’s a must-see.

@Lbrevis:

You watched Macross F so I recommend going back and watching the original. Or start with Macross Do You Remember Love? like I did which re-tells the series and still looks gorgeous.

But Macross isn’t… good! Okay, okay, so maybe it’s important “culture” or whatever. I’ll et to it at some point. Sigh.

You’ve actually seen more anime than I have so maybe I should be asking you for recommendations.

Watch School Days. All of it at once (minus the OVAs, which blew). Preferably in a crowded, dark room, on a large screen. Don’t sleep for at least 36 hours in advance. Oh, and be sure you know how the show ends ahead of time. And make sure that the crowd you’re watching it with doesn’t.

I can guarantee you, that’ll be the best anime experience of your life.

Speaking of which you gave Arjuna a 10? I heard that Kawamori went off the deep end in that with his radical environmentalism. Now I’m intrigued.

I don’t know about any of that booooollshit. It is one of the best shows I’ve ever seen. And not just in terms of enjoyment. It was powerful, it was well-executed, it was thoughtful, and it rocked. digiboy can probably give you a better explanation of its virtues, as he subscribes to it on a more personal level than I do.

I second Akira, Satoshi Kon movies, Haibane Renmei and any Ghibli movies you haven’t seen. Kaiji is the best thing ever though I can never seem to accurately predict who it will appeal to. Gunbuster and Diebuster too.
