    Prefer the older gundams myself. Wing is probably the latest I would go. After that it went all cutsie little kids.


    Little known trivia, apparently the guy who voiced Heero Yuy was in A LOT of barbie movies.....
    Also he was Bulma's dad in DBZ.

    He also voiced several characters in Pokemon. This guy is versatile, hahahaha.

    They released two more lists; Top 10 anime that will be forgotten and remembered. I'm reluctant to post them because because some of the same titles are present on both lists, lol.

    Regarding Gundam, I could not stand Gundam SD. If Gundam Wing is the one where the pilots are wrapped in the black stuff, than I agree that that one was awesome. At least, what I've seen of it.

    Yu-Gi-Oh just keeps getting worse, hahaha.

    Ive been trying to find a specifc gundam movie/series that i remember from my childhood, but all i remember is that a kid lives in some kind of house on the water and a gundam falls into the water nearby, then the kid fishes it out or something.

    then there was some other one where there were ai controlled gundams and they got infectedby some sort of virus, and they went against the good guys

    Above in red.

    Seriously, I find myself humming the YuruYuri theme sometimes.

    Whoever writes these lists is a right ****tard.

    I must admit, these lists lead me to watch some of the best unpopular anime I have ever seen. I give the writer props for that, hahaha.

    I found the full series of Samurai Champloo today. I was about to buy it, but I bought the second season of Boondocks instead. Nevertheless, I'm thinking of going back up there for it tomarrow. I've already seen the series, but it's always nice to own a copy.

    I was going to watch Gundam 00, but I've been going through FMA withdrawals.
    I'm literally obsessed with this show.

    You should watch the movie, Graphix.

    In other news, some poor fellow commited suiced after witnessing Itachi from Naruto die. It's a little disappointing seeing people take these shows so seriously.

    which one? Conqueror or shamballa, or the sacred star of milos? Personally, i feel the latter is way better.

    Just finished Corpse Princess. Good story but would have been better without the excessive boobage.


    Also, I have a lot of Naruto to catch up on it seems. Last time I watched it seriously was filler story when Sora showed up.

    I've only seen Conquerer of Shimballa so that one, hahaha. I'm going to watch the second one and the Eden of the East movies some time this week.

    Sorry, I didn't mean to spoiler that, Waylander. I wasn't talking about the series in that case though but instead a movie ;)

    I've seen the Star of Milos and personally, I don't think much of it.
    It was cool and all, but I didn't feel it was great.

    I haven't seen the Conquerer of Shamballa, though I have heard it's very good.

    Auburn don't worry. I've already had so much of Naruto spoiled through this thread. And I don't really care that much anyway. Anime is generally something I just have on in the background while working or as I'm going to sleep at night so spoilers don't bug me.


    Doesn't help that my GF reads the Manga online.

    I liked shamballa, but since it was an ending movie for the original series, its plot makes absolutely no ****ing sense when you compare it to brotherhood and sacred star of milos. All the bullshit about parrallel worlds is just stupid.

    milos takes place before the end of brotherhood, and actually makes sense with both series' plotlines, it may not have the incredible fight between the original series version of wrath and gluttony, but it just fits with everything much better.
