I watch Gundam and Naruto. I\'m currently watching Gundam SEED Destiny and I\'m kind of a Gundam Maniac. I\'m currently watching all the new Naruto episodes on cartoonnetwork each Saturday, but I missed episodes 92-161.

Use the net for missing ones:

If you want the dub go onto www.dubhappy.com

or is you want the sub go on www.veoh.com


Edit: I was going to double post to get this topic back into action but Echoes will have to go at me again Smilie

I want those shoes!!!
Damn, i just got some nice globes on saturday too...*cries**saves bookmark*
I would also reccomend any studio ghibli film to anyone as well. They are all fantastic!
I have just come up to date with claymore which is bloody awesome by the way except the use of HOLY FAN SERVICE!!!!
Im going to start watching it soon. Give it a bit of a download.
I also think Ghost In The Shell is overated, ive watched a few eps of anime central (eww dub) and I did not think it anything special to ber honest, I did not feel immediately drawn in like with most anime and mangas.

Ghost in the Shell is important because it explores concepts slightly more meaningful than a bunch of spiky haired people fighting or throwing slightly more artistic than normal playing cards at each other.

Fair enough, that doesn't make it entertaining though.

Yeah I want to watch Spirited Away ASAP but I don't have it Smilie... yet Smilie

People, you need to start watching Minami-ke and Kurenai. However thankfully I don't think there is any dubbed versions yet.

ModeratorStaff Member

Most dubs are awful. It's much easier to find subs so I don't know why you wouldn't.

I actually prefer the Pokémon dub to the sub. Probably nostalgia + James.

Yeah decent dubs are very rare...I liked the Cowboy Bebop dub quite a lot though. And Cromartie High School has an amazing dub. Smilie Everything else I just watch subbed though.

Dude, watch it now!! its awesome.
I would also reccomend Porco Rosso and Castle of Cagliostoro: lupin the third.

It makes it more entertaining to watch by virtue of teh theeeeeeeemes, not in spite of. There's still a balance (Like The Matrix getting too self indulgent and up its own arse), but constant action, especially of not done well, can get just as if not more mind numbing than people consider serious stuff.

Mm, true. I just found the characters and story a bit dull. Like I said, probably just not my kind of thing.

ModeratorStaff Member

From what I saw of the Ghost in the Shell series there was nothing but talking and action... mind numbingly dull to me. It's also why I find Evangeleon dull, but that might just be the giant mech thing.

Does anyone know if the Kingdom Hearts manga is any good? Or is it even more camp than the game? I don't know how much Mermaid Sora I can take...

Evangelion is not dull, it's just effed up.

Cowboy Bebop and Samurai Champloo are by far the best dubs I know of. Generally speaking if is has the guy who does Spike in CB (And Mugen in SC) then it'll probably be pretty good...

Today I got the first volunme of Full Metal Panic? FUMOFFU. It was in HMV and it was cheap (for an Anime that is... *sigh*) so I picked it up.

I also got some Kingdom Hearts manga ^^ sionce I'm very into KH at the moment. Finding Chain of Memories on GBA will be impossible so I got the manga to fill in the gaps.

Have you seen the first series? I wouldn\'t watch Fumoffu if you haven\'t seen the first FMP series... Smilie

( Edited 15.06.2008 18:25 by Ikana )

ModeratorStaff Member

I was told it didn't really matter. Besides FUMOFFU is more of a comedy and I don't really like Mecha animes Smilie

Is it best to watch it in dub or sub?

Twitter | C3 Moderator | Backloggery
Cubed3 Member

I don't like mecha animes either, but FMP is ace. And Fumoffu does make more sense if you've seen the first series, especially as the characters are explained in the first series, where as fumoffu kind of assumes you already know them. That said, yeah, it is just a side-story comedy, and I guess it won't make TOO much difference. Smilie

I watched it subbed. Subbed is always the safe option. Smilie

ModeratorStaff Member

I'll end up getting it all anyway probably; I just needed something to grab my attention Smilie

To my dismay, the Kingdom Hearts manga is flipped! I think it was one of the first titles that Tokyopop published (back in 2005) so that's probably why. The Chain of Memories manga is in original right to left formula. Once I noticed that, I figured it might not be Tokyopop trying to sell Disney comics to a western audience afterall.

Yeah well I won't spoil it for people but I know something was up. Plus I sort of know what happens at the end because I accidently saw some spoilers on the internet ages ago. But still I can not wait.

I'm actually going to get some popcorn in for when I watch it.

I am terrible sorry, but i am not a part of anime fan. you see, it has too much sex like b- word or v- word. it is funny though,

I just finished watching the final episode, man it's really sad to see the series over.

It's such a good series; everything about it was remarkable.
The characters, artwork, story, music.

I am going to finish the manga now then re watch the series again!


I've got this loading up now also:
