my constant anime ingestion continues\u2026so i thought i\u2019d do a follow-up post about whats been piquing my interest. im still sifting thru my collection too. my supply is far past my ability to consume\u2026yar! must\u2026watch\u2026faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

toradora!<\/b> | ya\u2026still going. up to episode 21 and its still a good series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

sekirei<\/b> | if you like boobs the size of small children, this is your anime. mildly brainless, but the fight scenes are well animated. otherwise nothing exemplary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

fate\/stay night<\/b> | i\u2019d seen alot of figures for fate\/stay all over akihabara, so i thought hmm\u2026a series with this many devoted figures (that weren\u2019t all in skanky outfits\u2026*cough<\/i>* witchblade) couldnt be that bad. and yea\u2026whats the opposite of suck? oh right\u2026awesome. this series is awesome. really well written and animated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

tetsuwan birdy<\/b> | voted anime with the best gravity-defying outfits\u2026her clothes are glued to her! but besides that tho, its still a pretty good anime. story could be a bit under-explained at times, but i suppose thats ok since its just the first season (season 2 is currently ongoing). its also by the creator of patlabor<\/i>, so it couldnt be that bad. and regardless of the near-limitless opportunities provided by the premise (boy killed, has spirit implanted in hot female aliens body) and the aforementioned glued-on outfits, its not even the least bit ecchi. like, not even a little\u2026i was surprised (and ok, just a little disappointed). oh, and its by a-1, who also did kannagi<\/i> mentioned in the last anime post. yea, theyre awesome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

code geass<\/b> | holy shit. just like\u2026watch it. both seasons too. brilliant story. im man enough to admit i cried a little. even the stupid pizza hut<\/i> product placements couldnt blemish this series the slightest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

xam\u2019d lost memories<\/b> | still watching this series, but its pretty good. its by bones<\/i> (eureka, full metal alchemist), which means at the very least the animations top-notch. its definitely got a miyazaki-vibe to it too\u2026with the production design, characters, etc (one of the female protagonists has more than a passing resemblance to nausicaa).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

edit<\/i> | just finished it. what the fuck just happened?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

koihime musou<\/b> | looked like brainless fun with girls fighting each other in ancient china. ill get around to finishing it sometime\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

:: anime post part one<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

ive got a number of other series ive yet to watch\u2026ill post them down the road too when i get to watching them. in the meantime\u2026the OP to the second season of tetsuwan birdy<\/i>\u2026word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
