nope but if you keep guessing ill tell you if your correct or not


Posted by Yan on Mar-18-2005 06:32:

The anime is highly overrated and overhyped. Whereas most fans enjoyed everything but the ending, I thought it only started getting interesting around episode 50. Anime was a let down, to me, but I'm looking forward to the movie.

wrong again

and you think steamboy is good

this is 10+ times better

who cares if the fans didnt like the ending anime isnt made to cater to the fans anime is made to how the truth bitch

How am I wrong in stating my opinion?

When did I say Steamboy was good? Oh. That's right. I DIDN'T. I thoroughly enjoyed Akira and am looking forward to the next work by the director... which just happened to be Steamboy. I have high hopes for it but that's different from stating whether it's good or not.

You're comparing an anime about an alternate reality with "fake" alchemy to one about technology and steam? Good luck with trying to get your point across. It's like comparing apples and oranges.

UMMM. LOL. That's a REALLY stupid comment. If anime wasn't made to cater the fans then the anime industry would have went down the pipes by now. It's the fans feedback along with the creativity of the manga-ka (or anime director) that helps anime be successful.

Don't get the last part of your statement.

It was QUITE hyped in the anime community. There were tons of fans keeping tab on this movie which took 10 years to be produced and released.

To each his own. Naruto seems like a DBZ with ninjas... but many people who watch anime don't really want to see anything past the DBZ fight scenes which would make Naruto perfect for them.

you say fullmetal alchemist is bad and overyhyped and it really wasnt that popular


no if you take naruto which by your sig your obviously a naruwhore, narutard take your pick thats a show of utter crap and its also way overhyped by way more than fullmetal alchemist


who cares what the industry standard is they can choose to end the series the way they want to and just because the fans dont like it doesnt make it bad

sweet! TA has someone that dictates what is good and what is bad! Yan, you and I appreciate Naruto for what it is, guess what? We're wrong!!!!!! Johnny here has passed judgment on our opinions and finds them to be WRONG. Nice work Johnny, Yan...you and I have some soul-searching to do i'm afraid.

meh...KINDA, but pretty original in a lot of ways.

GON FREAKS!!! Hunter X Hunter was awesome i'll admit. When Kilua took his hunter exam for the second time...that was just plain old kickass

To me, I didn't enjoy Fullmetal Alchemist. I didn't say the anime was bad. It's considered overhyped, (pay close attention to this part) TO ME (you get it yet?), because it didn't live up to its expectations (here it comes again), TO ME.

It was really popular in Japan, however.

Actually, I'm not quite at the Narutard level. I don't enjoy the anime as much as others (One Piece, Bleach, Beck, etc...) since I'm not too into the DBZ type anime anymore. The only reason the Naruto characters are in my sig is because the Bleach characters are to the left of them and I don't want to ruin the pretty banner.

It IS extremely overhyped for the older group of anime fans... however, it's the perfect thing for kids. They eat up the DBZ stuff and they'll LOVE Naruto.

The industry cares about the industry. The people making money. DUH. Why would you end an anime that's still pulling in tons of fanfare?

If they don't like it how can they be fans? Do you mean anime fans?

If they don't like the anime then it obviously isn't good.

Then Hunter X Hunter is a ripoff of older anime. And older anime is a ripoff of old Samurai/Ninja movies. And those are ripoffs of REAL LIFE.

Yoshihiro Togashi is a legend, however, so I give MAJOR props for Yuu Yuu Hakusho and Hunter X Hunter.

FMA +1

Naruto -1


FMA is def up there on my list, after the initial "OMFG THAT ROXORZ" it slipped down a few spaces after thinking about it.

I like the atmosphere the most, I love that sort of alternate world sorta stuff.

I havnt read the manga, Im thinking maybe I should.


I havnt been watching it on Cartoon Network either, I dont know where they are at in it.


The last few episodes are pretty tight, the episodes about their master and her, ummm, problem, are pretty good.

Man, the end was sorta lame tho... I did cry a couple of times, I wont spoil it tho... its just... yea...


The movie should be cool, I havnt really kept up on it.


I still hold steadfast to my "it's not extremely amazing" opinion. Personally, I think the anime could have been done in anywhere between 13 and 26 episodes. Actually, if I started watching at around episode 40, I bet I could figure everything out that I missed by then.

If you want to ruin your imagine of FMA, read the manga. It takes a totally different turn.

The dubs are half in half. Some of them are good (the Elric brothers) while some are bad (Roy Mustang).

I thought the ending only STARTED to open up the world that is FMA. Imagine the possibilities.

Not much news about the movie.

Im deep into Beck right now, Im kinda bummed they are only doing 26 episodes (FUCKING FINALLY A TV SERIES THAT ACTUALLY GOES TO 26!!! Fuckin 13 episode bullshit pisses me off). Im hoping they do a second season, because Maho is seriously the coolest girl ever! People say get the manga, but seriously, what is the point of a manga about bands, you can hear the band in the book...


Beck FSCKING OWNS. It's a shame that there are only 26, for sure. I want a Maho, plzkthnx. Well... unless she's going to hang out with big celebrities like that asshole from before. I make the same point about the manga. How can you READ a manga about music? SO WEIRD. I guess they like the character development better in the manga.

Can't comment on any of the other anime stuffs. heh

Bastards.

Rurouni Kenshin and uh... (what was the other manga?) became monthly releases so that's why they spend so much time on them.

I want my fixing of HnG. I also want MORE OF THE ANIME.


Posted by Yan on Mar-18-2005 07:35:

Speaking of sports anime, Eyeshield 21 is coming out in anime form next month! Can't wait. It's a manga -> anime of American Football! The characters are really great and the action will be pretty damn cool, as is in the manga.
