brb best first episode I've ever seen

i find sports animes to be rather lackluster (if they focus too much on the technical side of it). CG is different though, and thats what makes it an epic series.

but i disagree, it doesnt top clannad AS!

The other day, I noticed that if an anime I'm watching is about a game or sport I don't particularly care about, I will probably enjoy it anyway.

Chihayafuru - Didn't even know wtf karuta was until this show. I am loving the series.
Saki - I knew what mahjong was, but not the style they play with. Really enjoyed it. Don't judge me.
Giant Killing - Hate soccer, yet I was always wanting more every time I watched an episode.
Kaiji - Restricted janken and E-Card were intense as fuk.

**21Classic** · 01-19-2012, 10:31 PM

My 2 cents on Dub vs. Sub: I agree that listening to the original would be better. The Japs take that **** to a whole nother level. Anime is almost (or is already) more important than real life acting. Listening to Clannad with the real actors would be amazing.

However, I enjoy watching the action. Im an extremely visual+audio learner (or consumer of media). Even though in Clannad theres no action, per se, I simply enjoy watching them speak even if theres hardly any animation.

Also, IMO, the english dub of Clannad was a ****ing 100/100. Best Ive ever heard.

In other news, im 2 episodes deep into Afro Samurai. Fuuuuck I love this style of animation. Its beautiful to watch. Story is ok. Sam Jackson is lulzy. only 5 episodes, bertstare.jpg

What is stopping you from watching the action with subbed anime?

in4 subtitles take too long to read

I'm the same exact way. Its crazy how anime can make any topic interesting. I'm watching Yakitate Japan and I'm loving it even though I don't give a flying fuk about baking bread. I enjoyed Hikaru no Go and I'm still not sure exactly what the hell that games about.

Subs, the amount of emotion put in for Jap Voice does not compare at all to dubs, there were only a few dubs sucessful imo, besides that dub fails

Yeah, voice acting is taken way more seriously in Japan and there's actual emotion put into the voices unlike in the US where its same guy who sounds like a piece of paper.

Spoilers for the Sengoku Basara movie but I'd like to hear any dub that compares to the epicness of this

**Justin23454** · 01-20-2012, 07:37 AM

sub = better then dubbed. Dubbed always makes the people sound so stupid and annoying...

Finished Afro Samurai. took me all of one plate of chicken and rice, a workout shake and a tuna sammich. Good show. The art and animation were thoroughly satisfying. Ima guess work like that takes a long time and is more expensive than something simple like OnePiece. Anybody interested should go watch it. Its only 10 episodes, even if you dont like it, youd have only wasted 1 or 2 fap sessions.

**.aeterna** · 01-20-2012, 10:22 AM

mind=blown that people actually watched clannad dubbed

i just watched a few clips on youtube...it's like night/day (compared to japanese)

o well, so long as you liked it..even with shoddy english voice acting.. lol

its just a part of the supernatural aspect to the show

nebody watching any good ****gytime animes this season? i miss getting weird boners from seeing Sena molest Kobato from Boku Wa Tomodachi. inb4****/chrishansen

**IDontPlay247** · 01-20-2012, 03:11 PM

Please tell me someone here is reading The Breaker: New Waves. This manga is alpha as fuk. Next to Holyland its probably the best martial arts manga i've read.

I recommend The Breaker to anyone who wants to see some badass fights

**hilariousninja** · 01-20-2012, 03:11 PM

Anyone which watched anime dubbed is a tool and doesn't deserve to watch anime in the first place.

**FIREnICE** · 01-20-2012, 03:33 PM

yea. toriko is good too. top 3 shounen right now.

well, i'd say it's one of the most mature shounen titles out there. there's death, violence and a lot of tactics involved. it's as realistic as a supernatural manga gets. there's so much thought behind every single little detail that it almost makes the world genuine.

that's what i think.

gon (main character) is a very gifted kid physically and he has natural talents. it follows him as he tries to reach his dad's world and status (one of the top hunters in the planet)... won't say more.

Martial Arts Mangas:

Gamaran

Veritas

P.S. The Breaker > The Breaker: New Waves.

Yes i completely agree. The Breaker was definitely the better of the two but things are starting to get good in New Waves and im hoping that master ends up showing his face again.

I've never heard of Veritas or Sun Ken Rock but they look pretty sick. Which one would you recommend me reading first?
