You got a meeting and I'm taking a break from running Ethernet cables lol

Seven deadly sins was excellent. You'd probably like Fairy Tail, its pretty similar

Damn every time I look at this page I see a lot of people watching older animes and then I think to myself man I should start watching some of the old stuff then again some of the new stuff is good also. By the way I got a new sticker for my car I had to get it.

Watching gundam unicorn & JOJO right now.

I can't stand most new animes.

Now that GoT and Silicon Valley are back on our plans to watch Another have been pushed back.

I don't like any of those & find them mostly lame. But I like overlord......so.........ya.......maybe try that with her.

I don't like old ones. The older the less I tolerate. I don't like the art. Voice acting seems to be to a lower standard too. Love pop culture references/usage in brand new shows too

voice acting?.......you watch dubs? to me dub is trash 90% of the time.
The main reason i like old ones "was" because they were all new ideas. Now I just see lots of them that plays on the same idea despite being new.

(PS: I don't watch old one nowadays cuz i watched them all back in the days growing up.)

Oh & I don't watch love story or anime that's about girls/cute girls..........unless it's exceptionally good.

Oh sorry, I didn't know I had to know Japanese to be entertained by anime. I worked at learning Japanese in my free time at work but didn't make it far without any guidance. I don't want to work to understand what's going on anyways. Yes, there are subs but if I wanted to read I'd get a book. And there really aren't any brand new ideas anymore. More or less, everything's been done.

Ok, sorry for my harsh words. Ever watch starwar in dubbed Japanese? Let me tell you that you shouldn't. �� No matter how good they are with the voice over.

US Voice acting got better, but it's still a fry cry from excellent. It's not everyday you get metal gear solid level of voice acting.

There are always new ideas, but lots anime profit on same style of story telling or try to translate the style from light novel to tv which usually isn't that good from pure story telling point of view. Unless of course you read the light novel beforehand.

I enjoyed Heavely lost property that you recommended, but I think i'm good with that style for a good while now.



Here take a look @ this & tell me how much better the english version is. I'm sure we all watched this in english. Trust me, so much is lost when you dub.
