New and current FS anime Topic

Without giving away too much about it;

->Open Spoiler<-

it's one of the main plotlines of the xxxholic/TRC crossover. So if you don't understand it yet, with luck you will eventually.

Edit: 3rd school rumble series announced.

Edit 2: Not a series proper but rather a couple of ova episodes.

Nice more SR. But if the manga's anything to go by it'll be more comedy/romance with zero payoffs... which is the reason i stopped reading it. You can only use that dammed misunderstanding joke so many ****ing times.

Aria O ep7 - Nice little episode giving us the background on Alicia's senpai and grandma telling use how/why she founding Aria Company (quite a nice flash back that).. but that bit at the end of the episode makes me think Alicia's going to be leaving soon

Minamike O ep8 - poolside fan service but not as funny as the outdoor bath one in ep1 mainly down to it featuring little Mako/Uchida which could have brought some great laughs and the potential of Hosaka,Hayami and Maki together should have netted more jokes than the one right at the end which i can't believe they didn't let us see the pay off.

Trying to get Nana live action film... trackers seems to be down

[Orka]

yeah ive just read about that 3rd dvd only season of School Rumble, more SR is a good thing, having to wait months between eps is a bad thing

Anyways just finished Read or Die TV, what a brilliant little series that was, great story, good art and an awesome soundtrack (note to self: must acquire ost's), it took what was a nice little concept from the ova and expanded it to a great full length series

also ordered some more manga earlier vols 7-12 of Tsubasa RC

I'm not sure if it's worth getting the Nana live action . I haven't heard very good stuff about it unlike the nodame live action which is apparently a better adaptation of the manga than the anime for example. I suppose if you've watched the first live action movie (this is the sequel to it) it wouldn't hurt but still... I don't think it covers any particularly new ground either. 1.7GB for that....

Needless to say I've downloaded it It seems to be a compulsion of mine with the bandwidth I have to spare.

Also third Ikkitousen season has been announced. I think there were some fans of it here.

Spice and Wolf ep 3 - finally getting the catchup rolling. Reminded me exactly why it was my favourite new show. Lovely stuff

And I have to say a big thank you to everyone who was mentioning Kino no Tabi in here recently. All the talk finally prompted me to check out an episode and I have to say I like what I saw. I wasn't sure if it was part of the series proper though because the file I had was tagged with episode 00, so it might have been some sort of prologue thing? It was the story of the

tower country and the people who kept building that tower up only for it to fall again and then rebuild it.

Looking forward to the rest of them...

Dragonaut 18: Facepatch!

From this amazing piece of fashion, we finally see the reason behind it:
MIGHTY SCAR!

Glad you liked the first ep of Kino Zapp. I think that particular ep is a special added to the series but it won't effect your enjoyment of the rest of the series.

3rd school rumble series announced.

Official info page:

http://sr.kc.kodansha.co.jp/item.html

There WILL be a series, what ANN doesn't say is that episode #25 of the third series will be on a DVD with volume #21 and ep#26 will be with vol#22.
BUT you'll be paying about 3000yen for 1 episode over the comic price.
vol#21=3480yen (410 is the comic)
vol#22=3360yen

Forget that. Head to Quantum-Raws and download them instead.

Holy crap, i love school rumble. Ive been waiting for this day since the 2nd series ended! YAY!

New Macross series.

http://www.macrossf.com/

From April.

I'm getting confused about SR. It looks like there's a third series, but moonphase doesn't have it listed, only the two OVAs. Why call them #25 and #26? Gah, makes no sense.

Well, this presents a compelling argument in favor of high definition subs, since without HD and on a moving picture it'd be near-impossible to spot-- Oh, who am I kidding: BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

[Tobal]

Better news than new SR, NEW SLAYERS!!!! 4th series confirmed. Been awhile since we had some proper Epic Swords'n'Sourcery... i think the last time was maybe... Scrapped Princess.

[Mr.Jeff]

Shigofumi 8: Well, I can see why they had to edit it at least. It'd be interesting (if not a little disturbing) to see the original version of it alongside episode 3. Very interesting show though. Certainly picks up some of the more darker elements of human nature.

Clannad ep 19 - back after a week break

->Open Spoiler<-

Well things are definitely firmly in Nagisa arc territory, with the secret past to be revealed in the next episode. The episode was at the other end of the spectrum to the last one, very slow paced, very slice of lifey with quite a few Nagisa X Tomoya moments and with Nagisa finally showing a more forceful side to her, which was cute. A few bits and pieces from the others most notably Sunohara's keyboard scene.

Nice to have it back again. Enjoyed that.

From what I've read it may be ending sooner than expected, causing people to speculate they might take a break and come back at a later date to animate the so called After story.

[Mr.Jeff]

Quite an odd ep for Clannad. I started it up thinking it was going to be really awkward after what happened last episode but...nothing happened. I know they wouldn't exactly trumpet it but you'd expect some kind of side-long glances or something. Anyway, Sunohara was win once again and it's good to finally have some kind of progression with

Nagisa. I must admit, I'm pre-empting her secret past already. I hope it won't be what I'm imagining.

Side-long glances? from who? the girls? Because I do remember one or two glances from Kyou in that keyboard scene.
