Any of you watch Anime?

Postby OMEGA » Jun 25th, '13, 19:05

Just a couple months ago I discovered this awesome service called Crunchyroll (like netflix, but for anime) and I've been enjoying some series a lot. There's a show called Attack on Titan which is basically the rage nowadays. It's pretty badass:

Image

Synopsis of Attack in Titan:

Several hundred years ago, humans were nearly exterminated by titans. Titans are typically several stories tall, seem to have no intelligence, devour human beings and, worst of all, seem to do it for the pleasure rather than as a food source. A small percentage of humanity survived by walling themselves in a city protected by extremely high walls, even taller than the biggest of titans. Flash forward to the present and the city has not seen a titan in over 100 years. Teenage boy Eren Jaegar (Yûki Kaji) and his foster sister Mikasa Ackerman (Yui Ishikawa) witness something horrific as the city walls are destroyed by a colossal titan that appears out of thin air.


There's a ton of good stuff that I had no idea it existed.

Are you guys watching any anime right now? What are your favorites?

I'd recommend giving Crunchyroll a try to discover some new series. Is cheap as fuck ($6 per month), and the videos are HD with no ads. Amazing stuff.

I need to watch Akira so I can prepare my body for Lupe's Tetsuo & Youth album.

I don't think DBZ is classified as anime.

DBZ is most definitely anime.

Death Note was fantastic by the way.

DBZ is absolutely anime. Goku, IIRC, is the most popular anime character of all time according to a huge poll that happened a while ago in Japan.

Yeah, I've always seen DBZ as anime. That's probably the only anime I've followed through out completely tbh.

Dragon Ball is a manga adapted to anime. It ain't no cartoon yo.
