Bokura wa anime fans, the *Official* Anime Discussion Thread - PART 2

[FinalCountdown]

First thread is going to die some time soon since the 10k post limit has been reached, and someone said we should start a new one so I figured I would.

Here's to another 10k posts on anime, brahs.


Some stuff to note:

Spoilers:

We try to make an effort not to spoil things for others, most often in the case where they haven't seen an anime/episode. If you're going to post spoilers, please use one of our methods to keep others from unintentionally seeing it. Examples would be to color code your text to white or use a *SPOILERS* tag, followed by a large space so others know that spoilers are coming ahead.

Examples:

I bawled my eyes out when Goku sacrificed himself for the Earth.

Or

*SPOILERS*














Damn that was the craziest fight ever, but what the hell is up with Gohan and this Mystic shiet!?!

End of Spoilers.

for codecs to watch mkv/hd/MP4/X264/H.264/ and other newer types

(only get these if ur anime won't playback and only choose one from below. Get the one on top first...if that doesn't work then get the second one. These two are media players. If they don't work then get the third one and if that doesn't work then get one of the last two.)

New Links

However, I would like to add 2 current links I have that were never mentioned when Jamps created the original thread. These 2 IMO are some of the current best so I would recommend checking them out.

http://www.animefushigi.com/ -- watch anime here, it is usually very quick to get new episodes too.
http://bakabt.me/ -- a private torrent site for anime, quality is very good and download speed is great.

Here are also a few more links provided by byoushin in the last thread,

http://www.animetake.com/ - direct downloads for airing series
http://randomc.net/ - reviews of currently airing shows (each episode)
http://animecalendar.net/ - calendar



And once again, haters pls go. This is a thread for us to discuss anime. There are plenty of other places to troll, etc.


Lastly, if you're new and want to check out anime or try getting into anime.. just ask us! Tell us what you like and we'll recommend a show for you. Some shows beginners usually like include:

-Berserk
-Fullmetal Alchemist
-Death Note
-Claymore
-Cowboy Bebop
-Samurai Champloo
-One Piece
-Clannad
-Trigun
-Darker than Black
-etc etc there are tons, so just ask!

I just watched FMA brotherhood last week and it was amazing, dropped a tear at the end.

[Ceapy]

In on 1st page. Currently watching Steins;Gate, good stuff. FMA:Brotherhood is also amazing haha,towards the end the action scenes are mind=blown.

Most people watch such mainstream and common anime like naruto and bleach and say it's amazing. I feel sorry for em cause they're practically sitting on a gold mine and are satisfied with such mediocre series.

you're in for an awesome ****ing series. the ****gytime is good and the baseball aspect of the show is not underused or overused.

aoba and ko's interactions = lulzy times. enjoy the series bro

I just watched FMA brotherhood last week and it was amazing, dropped a tear at the end.

i know that feel. i loved the ending because it was conclusive, with no loose ends needing to be tied up (cough FMA original cough). epic series that everyone should watch

Madoka was the biggest sleeper hit of the spring 2011 season. brb watching 3rd ep and getting instantly hooked. amazing series that blew apart the "magical girl" genre

mirrai nikki is weird but good

i am disappoint at this show. i understand its a shonen series but they didnt have to use naruto in his "deadman wonderland" pussy role. im hoping they turn it around...b/c the last few eps have not been as exciting as i had hoped it to be.





brb im a phukking nerd
