so i hadn't seen anything really since gurren lagann, and have been feeling like checking out a good anime for a while now...

bought samurai champloo (same creator of cowboy bebop) and baccano! from amazon and i downloaded:

claymore
darker than black
durara
jojo's bizarre adventure

just started baccano! and holy shit that was a lot to absorb in the first episode...seen any of these?

[Kz]

yes i seen all but jojo' bizzare adventure. Claymore and Darker than black first season are amazing. the 2nd season o darker than black is just soso but man the first season is something amazing. Champloo is pretty damn good but not as good as bebop.

Seconding Hunter X Hunter, I think its about one of the only anime shows that I did like aside from FMA. Never really gave very many a fair shake though, just had to be different and watch something besides DBZ/Naruto. HXH was the one recommended to me.

[Rhun]

out of those i've seen berserk, advent children (it's computer animated though), and hellsing (is ultimate something different?) and i like them all.

[Kz]

Hellsing Ultimate is the OVA version based on the manga more and its just absolutely amazing animation its still ongoing its like 6-8months between episodes, the final one comes out in december of this year. its in my top 5 anime of all time.

[Kz]

will do, it looked pretty decent.

[Kz]

the first ep was pretty good my friend is super excited about it. he said it is his favorite manga.

episode 2 is up

[Kz]

yea i watched it. yours didn't have all the subtitles so i watched it via my normal source and it was fine. tho i could understand most of the missed subs, its definitely shaping up to be a good show.

[Rhun]

hmm what do you mean it didn't have all the subs? and did you download it or stream?

edit: i'm getting the GG subs, they may phrase things a little differently, but from what i've read, it makes sense versus other translations that are trying to be as literal as possible.

from GG:

No, we’re not going to use “Scouting Legion” because some manga translator translated it that way. Official translations used “Survey Corps,” but we think “Recon Corps” fit better given the nature of what they do (see opening scene).

and others have said

I believe Commie has it translated to Reconnaissance Legion, so pick your poison.

MAL seems extremely one-sided on gg vs Commie, 111/120 vs. 10/57 respectively as of this post (And nothing on Deadfish.)

But a lot of people on MAL are dumb, so I'm not sure how reliable these things are.


Here is basically everything you need to know about the difference between Commie and GG:

Khagan posted:

I preferred the phrasing of dialogue in GG over Commie anyway.

And were disgraced to live in these cages called walls (GG translation) vs The ignominious shame of life in Their birdcage (Commie translation)


The ignominious shame indeed.

what i meant was all the sentences people spoke weren't subbed, they missed some speaking throughout the episode. so i chose to watch from where i normally do and it had them all.
