Those start next week don't they?

Helmsphere 08-18-2021 11:39 PM

I believe so. This week should be the last of the Endeavor Agency arc.

Sepholio 09-24-2021 01:50 PM

Second half of the final season of The Seven Deadly Sins is out on Netflix woooooo

Destor 09-24-2021 05:18 PM

Destor 09-26-2021 09:18 PM

7DS
s5e20


SPOILER: show
Escanor is far and away one of the best characters ever and his death was astounding

Destor 09-26-2021 10:25 PM

and so it ends. amazing show.

Sepholio 09-26-2021 11:11 PM

Def one of my favorite series.

Destor 09-26-2021 11:30 PM

kinda sad its over

Sepholio 09-26-2021 11:58 PM

Big same man. Feel like the last 4 episodes or so were rushed; that last little "mini-arc" was still awesome but it could have been stretched into a full 12 episode run itself. Hopefully the sequel manga gets picked up for an anime.

Destor 09-27-2021 12:08 AM

the last 4 eps were mind blowing in many ways but they seemed to me to be the ground work for the next series

ClockShot 09-28-2021 08:13 PM

Summer shows are ending and the fall season just about getting underway. Was all hyped for Shield Hero season 2. BUT, that got pushed to April next year most likely due to Covid. I'm looking to see what's looking good. Part 2 of 86 is a must for me.

How a Realist Hero Rebuilt the Kingdom and Tsukimichi: Moonlit Fantasy are recommended watches from the summer crop of anime. The latter I watched by accident.

The Detective is Already Dead, not so much. Started interesting but lost it's way.

Sepholio 09-28-2021 08:20 PM

I also thought The Dungeon of Black Company was a good one from the summer crop.

I'm watching Jujutsu Kaisen now, never got around to it when it aired earlier this year. Loving it so far.

Sepholio 09-28-2021 08:21 PM

Also bummed about Shield Hero getting pushed back. I just rewatched S1 because I thought it was still dropping for the fall season.

Is this a PH Original?

Live action cowboy bebop sucks balls.

Jet is fantastic, and it's probably an okay watch if you haven't seen the anime, but if you have? Hoo boy.

Kalyx triaD 11-24-2021 04:22 PM

Get used to it because anime looks like the next medium to be live action milked for the next few years.

Yeah. Was going to jump into it before I read reviews. Kind of a bummer.

Sepholio 11-24-2021 10:07 PM

There was no way they were gonna come close to the magic of the anime with that one. I knew that was gonna be rough the whole time.

Destor 11-25-2021 12:13 AM

live action ein is the only good reason to watch the show

Fignuts 11-25-2021 12:52 AM

My God what they did to Vicious and Julia.

Destor 11-25-2021 08:49 AM

completely missed the point.

Fignuts 11-25-2021 10:36 AM

SPOILER: show
for the few seconds she's in there, Ed comes off like a character from a Paulie Shore movie, with a bad ed cosplay costume. Honestly though, I can't see how they could have done better, as Ed is a character that really only works in animation.

rez 12-10-2021 09:07 PM

Pissed live action Bebop got cancelled. It strayed but fuck it. Goddamn fan boys and Netflix

rez 12-10-2021 09:08 PM

Wanted to see what they would do with Ed after that teaser ending

rez 12-10-2021 09:12 PM

Irritates me. Netflix keeps on being Syfy these days. The actor that played Jet was so perfectly cast and I'd totes be down for a prequel in his cop days but it won't happen. :(

*long "whoooo" whistle*

Damn. 1 and done.

I know Netflix will at times will give a show a second season to try to fix things if the first was a dud.

But all that hype and work for nothing.

Fignuts 12-11-2021 08:17 AM

It was not canceled because of "fanboys".

Outside of missing the entire tone of the show, and completely rewriting numerous characters, it's not a particularly well written show. Even if you went in with no prior knowledge of the anime, it's an average show at best.

The only thing I want to see that version of Ed in, is a new hostel movie.

Christ, that scene was straight out of Biodome.

Kalyx triaD 12-11-2021 12:07 PM

Biodome was great.

So was your Mom but it doesn't mean its to everyone's taste

Kalyx triaD 12-12-2021 09:17 PM

:(

Tom Guycott 12-13-2021 12:01 AM

I thought it was fun. It wasn't the greatest thing ever, but it isn't as bad as folks are making it out to be.

It was WAYYYY better than that attempt at Death Note. Ugh.

I'd put Bebop on par with the 90s Fist of the North Star. You know; the one with Rufio, Downtown Julie Brown, and Vader.

rez 12-13-2021 12:21 PM

Love me some Downtown Julie

Biodome is a gem

Sepholio 01-19-2022 10:39 AM

Watching Platinum End. Think this might be my favorite anime of the last few seasons.

ClockShot 01-19-2022 07:29 PM

I'm all over the place these days.

Fignuts 02-03-2022 01:21 AM

Watching Demon Slayer.

Story and characters are alright. Not bad, but doesn't reinvent the wheel.

But the fight scenes. My God the fight scenes. Possibly some of the most gorgeously animated fights in an ongoing series I've ever seen.

Kalyx triaD 02-03-2022 02:27 AM

That basketball anime is the shit

Fignuts 03-02-2022 12:28 AM

Current arc in demon slayer just wrapped up, and well...we'll... show has ruined other action anime for me. The action scenes are just that good. I don't know they get away with it. Looks better than a lot of anime movies.

Destor 03-02-2022 12:35 AM

ive just started the new season. art style great. characters and world are mostly mediocre. the big moments really deliver though

ClockShot 03-02-2022 07:21 AM

Has the dub made its way to Adult Swim yet?

That's what I'm holding out for. But I guess I should watch the movie first.
