What can anime gaf tell me about

Children Who Chase Lost Voices From Deep Below

?

Seeing a lot of variant pricing on the Blu-Ray, $40-$120, looks like there's a limited edition and one that it not...

Anyway, as a Ghibli fan and a Shinichiro Watanabe fan, would I enjoy something like this?

The trailer looks cool, but not seeing a lot of info on this.

lol well i'm sure thats a dig at me, and thats fine I don't claim to be a very complex man, I just like what I like. Being clear though I don't dislike anime that features women as main characters (Ghost in the Shell is great, and I remember Bubble Gun Crisis being good), I don't don't tend to like anime that are overly feminine though. I don't have an issue with their exsistance personally, but they are not something i'd go out of my way to watch.

Third or fourthing this; the first episode and a few of the episodes near the end are a bit wonky, but it's a shockingly good show. One of the best expansions of thin videogame source material I've seen in any medium. And the soundtrack is absolutely killer.

The entire sequence before the OP was pretty cool.

And then out of nowhere, they show that he's been "training" in a toilet cubicle. Erm. What. Yeah whatever. Then I saw some loli show up with fake-incest comedy nonsense. I quickly started to skip ahead to prevent further damage to my brain and possibly my reputation. Luckily there was more game footage later in the episode!

The battle against Scarlet Rain was AWESOME. It's basically an anime rendition of a fight against a Vanquish boss or something. The mecha layouts are detailed, the designs are cool, and there's lots of great animation. sogood.gif


Accel World Episode 11-12

OMG! So this is what happens when this show decides to abandon the real world nonsense and set two entire episodes in the game world. Everything looks awesome, feels awesome, and the action and designs are totally filled with duckrollisms everywhere. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah. Be still my beating heart!

If the show is regularly like this, I would be a huge fan. Too bad it seems to be a rare case. The funniest thing about Accel World after watching ep1-2, 8, and 11-12, is that I feel this anime is a lot like watching EVO. The game world scenes are like watching actual EVO fight matches, while the real world crap is like watching the pre-EVO stuff, the interviews, and dicking around inbetween matches, and all that crap. Just skipping all the real world scenes seems to have no real impact on being able to follow the motivations and overall plot, since everything that really matters seems to take place in the game world...
I remember this.

Don't forget the sequels. It was quite refreshing to see the rest of the story a couple of years back. Almost like a 10 year anniversary celebration.

Mobile Suit Gundam: 08th MS Team 1

How often do you see a giant robot show OP that prominently features tanks?

This was fun. I'm looking forward to getting to Earth, but Shiro Amada is pretty awesome. Optimistic, brave to the point of stupidity, and kind. See, he helps out a helpless enemy soldier and bandages her wounds! What a gentleman!

Shiro Amada, an energetic young male that knows how to destroy mecha in ways that others never even dream of!
He meets the person who is most likely the main girl and helps her "against her will."
Ah, 08th MS Team, one of my personal anime essentials. Enjoy!

Season 1 was great. Season 2 is when that misunderstanding bullshit got out of control.

Regardless, this series has one hell of a supporting cast.

To be honest, out of that list the only ones I'm pushing for would be Arakawa Under the Bridge, Kimi ni Todoke, Lovely Complex, and School Rumble.

HeartCatch PreCure 19
Quote:
I really liked this episode mostly because Erika's father is a BOSS character. This week's problem was also pretty good and I felt the episode was pretty well done. The fight itself sees some cool parts though it's fairly pedestrian compared to the series peaks. We get the speed power-up being used again in this episode which is sorta cool I guess.
HeartCatch PreCure 20
Quote:

The Tsubomi who stole the model's place
Finally! It seems like we're going to get the yellow precure and the real bad-guy is semi revealed! The actual fight of this episode was not all that interesting and I almost feel like they've done this sort of problem before though it did have a quite significant twist, in having all 3 generals fighting at the same time although short it also feels like setup for a bug midseason climax. Can't wait to see what happens next and more importantly if the class president will be the yellow precure!
AKB 0048 11
Quote:
Quite a bit of stuff happens in this episode though it is beginning to feel like we won't be getting our crazy conclusion this season with only 2 episodes left and the show will presumably be a 2 season show. It feels like it has to at this point. So we are back to lancastar which has somehow now become an even more dull depressing place with DES forces increasing their influence throughout the land. It also seems like SS is about to elect a new center Nova and is writing songs again. What could our season finale be? No-one knows but I'm betting it will end with the concert on lancastar and shit going down.

New Testament was way worse (shotgun rape and shit). But my very first anime ever was Urotsukidoji at the age of 13 or 14 or something (or the first anime I've seen that wasn't for kids), so Bible Black didn't really have much impact anymore by the time I've seen it.

Focus on romance? Toradora. Focus on comedy? Seto no Hanayome. Inu x Boku is smack in the middle and pretty good. Full Metal Panic is both, plus action and mecha.
