    No. End of story.

    And even though that picture you sent me was SOOO random... It inspired me to make this (<---) my temp. avatar. IDK why. Just remembered it and thought "That would be cool".

    Is the first season any good? What genre is it?

    I would say a romance comedy, but much more of the latter. Daily life of a guy surrounded by females, you basically know what that entails, haha. Waaatch it!

    Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai - MyAnimeList.net

    I finished the first season of Zombie Desuka, it was pretty ****ing awesome, although the conclusion was a little lame in my opinion.

    I would say School Harem. And yes, it is good (for that type of anime)

    The ending is a little loose because they planned the second season to be done (I think at least.) I tend to prefer when seasons have loose endings because it means that the show will flow together better when watched as a whole. Shows like Code Geass where there is a very clear ending to the season don't very flow together very well and generally feel awkward at the start of the second or third season because you thought everything was over already.

    I read Bleach/sometimes Naruto. For those of you who dont know, Bleach is about this dude who uses a sword and slashes at evil stuff.

    Spoiler for teh Aschur
    The reason I felt it was lame was because the villian was made out to be worse than he really was. In the end, he just wanted to be killed which I understand as living forever has its downsides, although he didn't necessarily have to do the things he did to achieve his goal. With that said, I do see Yuu's reason in not wanting to kill him, but not doing so just seemed a little selfish to me. I felt that they were both wrong, but the villain was the only one made out to be. I also felt that things happened a bit quick with the ending with just a simple, 3 minute speech from Ayumu completely changed the guy's feelings. That's just me, I'm overly picky with these things :p I do look forward to watching the second season.

    Here's a somewhat funny list, haha. Top 20 Anime Your Life is Over If You're Busted Watching:
    1. Dakara Boku wa, H ga Dekinai
    2. Highschool DxD
    3. Ore no Imouto
    4. Kissxsis
    5. Ochinko
    6. Ro-kyu-bu!
    7. Kono Naka ni Hitori, Imouto ga Iru!
    8. Yosuga no Sora
    9. Nanoha
    10. 30-sai no Hoken Taiiku
    11. Seiken no Qwaser
    12. Nazo no Kanojo X
    13. B-gata H-kei
    14. Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukunai
    15. Queen’s Blade
    16. Haruhi
    17. Henzemi
    18. Haiyore! Nyaruko-san
    19. Uta no Prince-sama♪ Maji Love 1000%
    20. K-ON!

    I've wached HenZemi, Yosuga no Sora, KxS, Oreno, B Gata, Haruhi, and Tomodachi ga Sukunai. They weren't all that embarrasing of shows actually, but I will admit, HenZemi is very bizzare.

    EDIT: Hasn't the Bleach anime finally ended? The manga is still going strong though, there's a new arc about the Quincys or something I believe.

    Careful auburn, I suggest you remove those links as you could easily be infracted or banned for the content.

    I was fairly sure that both the manga and anime for bleach were announced to be ending.

    I think all three of the top manga are ending soon. I'm not certain about One Piece though.

    Yeah, I noticed those as soon as I posted it Aschur.

    One piece is ongoing, no notice of an end in sight yet. Which I welcome with open arms, One Piece is one of the few Manga and Anime that have run as long as it has without going to horseshit. Some could argue its only real competition is the grand-daddy of shounen anime; Dragonball Z.

    @aschur Someone actually knows the guy.. and I'm assuming the video?

    As for anime - a bunch of my friends watch it and talk about it to each other in front of me every five seconds. I just hear a bunch of japanese / korean words. And once in a while, kamehameha.

    I don't mean to be rude, but this is going to come off that way; If you don't have the intention of holding up your end of a conversation regarding anime for more than 3 posts, please don't try. I know that sounds elitist, but honestly, we come in here to chat abut anime and find new ones we haven't seen, not to talk about it to someone who seemingly has no interest in the medium.

    /ASSchur

    Now, if you were to ask me or any of the other members here to recommend some good anime for you to start off with, I would be more than happy to oblige. As would most of the others I feel.

    And now off topic, regarding Psy and Gangnam Style; I am fairly certain that >60% of the forum going internet community has seen that music video, it is not rare to find someone who has.



    Now, as a reminder, please discuss Anime and/or Manga in this thread.

    Nah, really I don't even watch anime that much. For some reason though when Durarara!! was on Adult Swim I watched it and I was like woah this is ****in' cool.

    You would probably like Baccano, Samurai Champloo, and Cowboy Bebop then.

    It's been awhile, I know. Finished up Trigun tonight, the first 13 episodes were quite boring to watch, but as soon as it showed flashbacks, everything became much more interesting. I started One Piece about 2 months ago, am currently on episode 139. I'm pretty amazed that I'm enjoying it, considering I would always make comments on how I wouldn't like it because its length. Started Nisemonogatari a few days back, pretty good so far. Finishing up To LOVE-Ru after a 2 year break from watching the first episode. All I can say is, ****.

    First things first... 1000th POST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1111111111111

    Second, you've got a whole second series of To Love-Ru to watch, and a third is on it's way. The manga is also very good.

    Third, what's Trigun like?
