New and current FS anime Topic

Time wise the 3rd didn't have the sword stuck in him for long, the manga has it all happening at the time, which is clearer to see than in the anime, while the 3rd is fighting, Naruto vs gaara is happening at the same him.

Didnt have the sword stuck in him for long? Are you joking?! That sword/soul grabbing part of the battle lasted for a huge amount of time.

Btw, I need some help. Ive downloaded [KAA]_FullMetal_Alchemist_1-4.DVD torrent from mirkx, and cant seem to play it. Ive tried opening it in the lastest VLC and quicktime and it wont work. Anyone help?

[PH]

Have you checked out the KAA website at :

http://www.the-easy-tiger.net/

There is some info on the front page regarding what codecs you need to get their vids working. Might be of some help?

[dave heats]

PH you're the man, thanks for the link.

Unfortuently, I'm using a mac and cant seem to download the windows codecs or zoom player, so at the moment am utterly ****ed. Any mac users able to offer any advice?

[PH]

Check out their forum at :

Do a search for "mac". There are plenty of threads about this. Unfortunately from what i've read its not good news for you.

[dave heats]

haha, thanks again m8. Basically, you can **** all those measures they list in various forum threads, I'll just get hold of them from somewhere else. Why dont the bastards just release their releases in a easily played format? Utter wankers.

I'm quite angry btw.

Dave, i know you've probably tried it already but just in case try installing this... http://www.3ivx.com/download/macos.html

Im totally new to all this fansub stuff but i took the plunge tonight and got bittorrent. (thanks for the person who posted the link to the bobobo files)

Just watched episode 1 of bobobo, MY GOD its the most weirdest anime i have ever seen in my entire life. I LOVE IT (^_^)

Bobobo is one kick ass fighter and whats up with the constant pickle blanking. He must really hate that thing

Dont know what to try next. Theres a whole world of fan translated anime out there waiting for me (drool)

Dave: Did you try MPlayer OSX? ( http://mplayerosx.sourceforge.net/ )

Importaku: Welcome aboard! If that's not already done, go get Macross Zero. Now.

[dave heats]

Thanks for all the help everyone. Stupidly in my fit of KAA rage I deleted the FMA folder, so am currently re-downloading the bastard, hoping the MPlayer OSX will work. I cant wait to start watching FMA, as the manga is fantastic.

Btw, anyone else watched DearS 5? Watched it last week, and it just gets better and better ([^_^])

[importaku]

So can anyone recommend more comedy anime?? im not really a anime expert so far i have enjoyed Tenchi muyo OVA (not the cartoon network abomination), Kekkou Kamen & Moldiver.

Just watched more episodes of bobobo, looks like nothing is gonna top that show its totally hillarious. The duck underpants episode was surreal.

[dave heats]

Well, whilst not utterly insane like bobobo, if youre after funny, heart warming anime look no further than these bad boys

Azumanga daioh
Onegai teacher/twins
DearS
Chobits

If youre new to this anime lark, also check out FLCL, GTO, rahxephon, hajime no ippo and full metal alchemist (going by the manga anyway). You might want to give one piece and naruto a look. My personal preference is the later, but they are both phenomenal.

7 minutes till FMA dvd1 download is complete. C'mon mplayer!

[Fuddle]

Turn-A Gundam.... is this the new gundam series?
should i be downloading it?

[dave heats]

Well its not gundam seed 2, so I'm not downloading it. Turn A gundam went out in 1999 and was 50 episodes.

Btw, I have officially given up trying to play FMA on my mac and have resorted to playing the bastards on my **** pc. At least I can watch them now, all be it in huge uncomfort.

[Fuddle]

sod it then, i've got way too much stuff on my desktop already that i havent watched yet.
i havent seen any gundam since wing, but i'll wait for the proper next series for downloading....maybe i'll just buy one of those dvd sets of gundam seed

[Wild_Cat]

dave: Whose releases are those? I mean, there are tons of groups subbing FMA (even though it's been licensed), surely at least one of them does releases in a more or less standard format... Spoon and Sonchou come to mind.

(I myself watch the TKM releases, but they're French subs so they won't be of any help to you)
