For Bleach, I use
http://www.bleachportal.net/

which is a pretty good fansub site, with all the episodes available for ddl in case anyone has 'issues' with torrents. They're in MKV format though, so you'd need an MKV player like VLC (which is amazing and plays EVERYTHING). Also, the site didn't use to be so ad-spammy, but if you don't mind closing an ad window with every link you click it's reliable with decent quality.

Not sure what that post said. Didn't understand most of it. I watch bleach at a site that streams it. I mostly meant where do they find out about these new ones cominng out all the time

From Shiri. Duh.

I find out about it mostly through the anime blog network. Animenewsnetwork.com is also sometimes helpful (that's about all they're good for though, the articles are crap.)

No, your brain is just plugged into the intarwebs and intercepts all transmissions. It's also why you have forums posts timestamped to every hour of the day.

I just use blogs and note down what's shown when depending on the season.

Finding anime is easy enough, picking up good ones from all the crap is what can get tricky.

I sometimes read a particular polish board thread where people review and recommend lots of stuff they watch. Also, Shiri used to point me to few now and then. Don't really browse for it, though I use Animenewsnetwork to check the number of episodes and ratings.

Usually it goes like this - I read one post that says "Awesome", another that says "Yeah it's great" and then I get it. Then I watch it and wow, it really is awesome. And then I post about it here and hear "Eww." wink.gif

Btw, I saw the first ep of Blassreiter, looks like another boring crap.

This is a REALLY FUN ANIME GAME. It's based off of Naruto, Billy being Naruto and SNAKEMAN being Orochimaru. I think you all would like it. Click my signature to sign up and make sure you get up to Chunin Rank and refer all of those good people!!!

Billy vs. SNAKEMAN

You can go there and it will take you to sign up!

Uh...someone let me know if you clicked that link and there was anything weird on the other side of it, I can't tell if this guy is a Lusternian or an unusual bot of some kind.

Dude.. I'm Deshwitat from Magnagora a GR1 in the ur'Guard....
Shiri2008-04-10 07:44:15
Alright, np then.
Unknown2008-04-10 08:09:00
Yeah, it's just a fun game that I have liked playing over that past two months. When you refer people you get + stamina and some nifty items if they reach "Chunin" rank , which would be nice. I hope you all play, for my sake.

I. The very top, The demigods:

1. Basilisk
2. Naruto

The idea of the children mirroring the story of the parents/granparents/teacher and the creative use of flashbacks.. its really good..

More so in the case of semi-tragic basilisk.. best thing about it is, it has uh.. lady samurais? hehe

3. Berserk

I downloaded the entire chapters thinking to see it little by little, and next thing I know, I was in my room the whole week neglecting life..

My, so near the top.. but not quite there
1. Escaflowne
2. Rouroushin

Midbies
1. Chobits -- really funny..

Forgot the others.. so theyre probably just entertaining but not that memorable.. i.e. Wolfs rain, withc hunter, full metal alchemist, etc..

Note: Hunter x Hunter would have been good. Except for the fact that this kilua and go are too "attached" to each other. Like naruto to sasuke, only its more "extreme".. it gets kinda hairy sometimes.. this japanese concept of boyhood "friendships"..
Prisch2008-04-11 15:09:17
Claymore
Mushishi
Last Exile
Shakugan no Shana/II
Records of Lodoss War
Rental Magica
Minami-ke
can I say Spirited Away?

I used to watch Naruto but the fillers are brutal and its just dead for me now.
Bleach as well, not interesting anymore.

That show was ace. I didn't really care about that because, well..they were pretty young and there were no sexual implications IMO. It just pissed me off that they spent 4/5ths of the entire series becoming Hunters. Then its basically over.

The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya
Honey & Clover (first season..)
Air
Genshiken
I used to watch Naruto but.. it was moving too slowly for me. Probably because I read the manga.
Last Exile
08th MS Team
R.O.D (the series)


That's more or less in order from most liked going down.
Prisch2008-04-11 20:11:25
Is it wrong that I want to stab the creator of AIR repeatedly in the face?

Witch Hunter Robin is amazing, I totally forgot about that show.
Bashara2008-04-11 21:54:04
It definitely had a fresh take on witchcraft, and was a very engaging show with the character conflicts with the fact that they were 'oppressing' witches. This is kinda funny but if I remember correctly, the first witch in the show was black.

I liked the art style, it wasn't overly cutesy and eye-sparkley, more refined and realistic anatomies.
Was in a modern setting but all the clothes were victorian like.
LOL I don't remember.
