Anime and Manga? Options

[Kaust]

The same applies to dubbing though- its still just a translation. The one thing about subs is they aren't bound to syncing sound and picture, therefore they can be considerably more detailed and accurate. And, like I sorta said before, the story typically seems more serious when its subbed, and I find it hard to believe the same stories are so childlike as they come across in dubbing when you have that comparison.

@SynthesisRTF

I can agree with that, I don't know how many times I've been reading a manga and something major is changed, like a characters name. It can be a bit annoying at times, but if you've read enough you can usually get the details even with a bad translation. Either that, or there is another translation out there.

@Kaust

This is true with dubs too, but at least those are 'official' translations, so while childish, they tend to be consistent.

My choice of anime is odd... I don't like Gurren Lagann because it shows a bit too much fan service for my taste, but I love Ranma 1/2 and it's second opening is fan service. So I'm messed up on that. XD But I love quite a lot, not listing DBZ, One Piece, and Naruto, I loved Casshern Sins, which made me cry... Lucky Star, Eyeshield 21, Hunter X Hunter (Old and 2011), Azumanga Daioh, Heroman, Squid Girl, and Digimon (Japanese version)

I actually been getting into a lot of "Slice of Life" anime all of a sudden. (That's shows like Lucky Star and Azumanga Daioh). Now for manga, my favorite of all time is GTO: Great Teacher Onizuka. Then Jing: King of Bandits, Megaman NT Warrior, and Iketeru Futari (Not kid friendly) I also like Sailormoon which I confessed on another thread.... Ooooh I want their new manga that's coming over here in North America!

Currently I am reading One Piece, Bleach, Naruto and Blue exorcist. The only anime I like watching is Naruto while the others just bore me to sleep.

For some odd reason, I just can't get into the whole Naruto thing, and Ao No Exorcist and Bleach are just amazing. I'm only on the second Ao No Exorcist episode though. I generally try to stick with manga though.

Just keep reading Naruto and soon you will learn to like it.

Hmm, I may start reading it after Ao No Exorcist. But some other good manga series' are Death Sweeper, Gekka No Kimi (but got boring after awhile), Chibi Vampire, Angel's Coffin, Wanted, and Kiss x Sis.

I finished the whole first season just last night.Which I am now calling it Shinryaku! Ika Musume since everyone called her that. Show turned out to be sweet and funny. I like all the crazy characters.

Uhh.. is there a rule about saying something like that in the forms? Because that's in the H word territory. (+18)

So I just found out there is a new Eureka Seven that seem to continue the story a few years later after. Easily named: Eureka Seven AO. The character seem fine, and I couldn't stop watching because of those evil cliffhangers.

No it's not - I DL'd it on a torrent ages ago.
Everything erm "intersting" is hidden behind pixels.

also it's pretty much hilarious all the way through.

It's also good knowing that none of his victims can get pregnant because it's proper rape

Oh! I don't think we should speak of this kind of stuff here. It wouldn't be appropriate to the younger members.

Oh, thanks for clearing that bit up.

[Shaddow]

I have to agree with the others, that's not really appropriate for younger members, at the very least hide it behind a spoiler with a warning. I don't think it's breaking any of the rules specifically, but we do try to keep most of RRR family friendly, and that's a bit of a surprise to younger members XD.

yea didn't you know that.

Aparently "Legitimate rape" is now even being marketed by big pharma

Lol, I'm going to have to watch that. And if there's a manga I'll read that.

[X-M-O]

Yeah... let's avoid mentioning "borderline hentai" anime (or anything more extreme than "borderline").

We do have younger audiences reading the forum, so let's not have any more discussion about that please. =]
