QUOTE (khyronic @ Sep 6 2004, 10:15 PM) I'm about to get new anime but don't know where to start. Rate the following shows as I know little about them. It will help me decide. tanx! Full Metal Panic El Hazard Slayers(breakdown by seasons, movies) Hellsing X Vandread Dirty Pair Flash Soul Hunters I've only seen a few on your list FMP. eh ok I guess. X. Decent. A little slow in spots and overly dramatic. Kamui you really want to beat up. Music is rather redundant. Good story. Decent cast of characters. Hellsing. Starts out good. Goes down hill around episode 8 or so. Vandread. Garbage. And someone asked about the Ninja Scroll TV series. It's crap. Some of the ugliest character designs I've ever seen. The action scenes would look good, if the charcaters weren't so hideous. The story, eh nothing really good. Music is terrible. Some shows that you should check out: Last Exile (something from Gonzo that doesn't suck) Texhnolyze Wolf's Rain Ghost in The Shell: Stand Alone Complex Berserk Gungrave these are indeed execellent, i really love gungrave. brought a tear to me eye when it came to their friendship at the end, bersek is also ecellent and so is everything else on this list, all of which is like 21 dollars each plus 8 dollars shipping at import-anime.com. the guy who runs the site is real cool, and you get most orders within a week.

true to each their own seeing as how i like devilman (kickass), and getter robo (starvengers when i was growing up) and most don't. i do enjoy excellent stuff i do own samurai x reflections, and cowboy bebop, and escaflowne (another hory froating head masterpiece) but i like the stuff that doesn't require you to think. besides getter robo is cool, and i am in the process of acheiving the perfect transformation toy. you want to talk about transforming toys check at the getter robo section at studio halfeye, at halfeye.m78.com

i don't know about you but i like hellsing, yes it is an uberpowerful person but it was still interesting, plus i got the whole series for like 14 bucks online at import-anime.com, which is where you will find most of the series for like 14 or 21 bucks. i also like x the series, although the ending could have been better.

yeah, but for how much, most of the anime series i buy i never pay more than like 30 or forty bucks, and i can in fact get the entire series for like 40 bucks at animespectrum.com, but like i said i heard that version has crappy subtitles, and it is in all japanese. maybe i should just wait for the fx perfect collection box if they make one, is should only be like 30 or 40 bucks then, with better subtitles and the english language track.

i too have wondered about it, seeing as how it seems to be a very popular paint scheme on most custom valks. i think it is cool, and it would have been great to see them in action on the show or movie

i am looking forward to at least ghost in the shell, i have been trying to get the whole series online, but most of the copies have horrible subtitles. but it is about time, cartoon network is starting to fall off

i just recently received a macross II valk model, and i completely forgot how cool they look, i really appreciate teh movie now, if notrhing else just at least for the mechs.

hey the way i see it if your women or men, whatever eb the case, have a problem with your macross displays, time to get new ones. i tell every girl i meet, well eventually anyway, about my collections and hobbies, and either they like it or don't, i have put my hobbies to the side once before for a girl, and regretted it, and now my current girl thinks it's cool, so it is all good.

yeah he would have, which would have been cool to see so early in the series, everyone watching would have been like "what the f***" i know i would have.

because it was brought up, i always believe the a vf could out manuever a MS, so there would be no contest, yeah a MS could have a ton of impressive weaponary, but it is useless if you can hit a target. besides the training for a gundam pilot is different than a vf pilot, i mean we are dealing with actual pilots, who are professionals in the art of dog fighting. gundams don't really dog fight, they shot huge beams, or just do sword battles with beam sabers, but that is my opinion oh and welcome to the site, they treated you far better than they did me when i started like a week ago. just look at the robotech movie thread here in movie and tv series

thanks, uh anything in gerwalk or fighter mode by chance?

oh sorry, i meant animespectrum.com, i hope you caught that.

oh that's funny

best animated movie or movie in general based off a game, stuck truthfully to the feel and story of the game, i haven't seen it any where, you may want to try animekrazy.com, or animearigato.com, or aniespectrum.com, they usually have excellent hard to find stuff for an extremely reasonable price.

the dvd itself it just really cool clips and stuff that we here in the US don't get to see. it is really cool clips from all the shows, and video games, and well as ads of toys and models, it is a must for true fans, just like flashback 2012

which makes sense, if you are going to have a mech with those capabilities, i believe they would consider that, if it needed to make an emergency take off wouldn't it be best to boost and transform. at least i hope people are that smart, do you honestly think we would build an aircraft and not think about any contigency plans in the event something drastic happened? i hope not if we did, we would have a sorry ass military

hey does anyone have pics of a completed model of the vf-2ss, i am supposed to be receiving one and i wanted to see some pics of the finished product.

hey, what company made that model on this thread?

Does anyone have the Studio Halfeye Toys of the getter robo series? i was thinking about bying them, but they are pricey, and wanted to make sure that it is worth it

i am looking for the bd2 and bd3 peices, and the rubber parts as well, and hopefully a gundpod strap, it would be much appreciated.

thanks guys, where is the best place to get the gundam markers, do i only get them online

he, so he made some mistakes, they all have, but for the most part if you look at his large body of work, and it is huge, he should be higher.

okay, i know that he has never really headlined a film, and when he has it failed, but samuel l jackson has to without a doubt be one the list, he is without a doubt a through and through badass, and always will be

well, although the mpc are crap, espicially the alpha i just received, i will at least buy more products if they produce the cyclones, and other mechs, because they are the only ones making them. just like the yammie fy-21fp, i do have it, it isn't great, but at least i have one. to me it is all about at least having it, because for the longest time i didn't have anything, and that is worse than having crappy toys, trust me. i didn't know about the sites that imported toys, so i was stuck with the american made ones, so although they are crap, they are at least putting out something that can be obtained by one who doesn't know about sites, or doesn't have a computer.

the valk designs were also the only things that i liked about macross II, actually, it wasn't bad if it was it's one anime, non macross related.
