The only live action I thought came out decent was Gantz.

And no reference to the whole "I take a chip... AND EAT IT" thing? Could've made the digesting the rest of the film a lot more manageable

Looking forward to hearing what you thought

@ any fans of Deadman Wonderland, Kataoka Jinsei & Kondou Kazuma just started a new manga called Smokin' Parade. First chapter is delightfully fucked up.

If you want to be put supremely on tilt at wasted potential in a show, look no further than Wizard Barristers Benmashi Cecil. I love Umetsu's KITE and he's probably my favorite character designer, but this show...
It's very nice to look at - even if you don't stick with it, just watch the first five minutes, or so, just because of the visual onslaught. My only complaint visually is the use of CGI. I understand why it's used (time, etc.), but drawing ages much better than CGI. This show though... it needed WAYYYYY more time to develop among other things. Due to how poorly it performed in Japan, there is no way it's getting a second season unless some angel investor comes along to scoop Umetsu up. Umetsu has these great ideas, but I don't know what happened after KITE.who slips in to my body and whispers to my ghost?

Neon Genesis is very divided between people who think it's the greatest thing to ever happen in Japanese animation, and the polar opposite who thinks it's pretentious and over rated. This seems to be based on WHEN someone has seen N.G.E. Was it their first anime? did they watch it as a young child? in these cases, it does a good job at burning a positive impression on people. Those who give it a shot after seeing more modern mangas think otherwise.

Shokugeki no soma for the recommendation
Um to be fair I watched evangelion recently as an adult and it's still the best anime I have ever seen from a non entertainment level perspective.
It's like the carpe diem of anime, so many parallels can be drawn from things that came after it, if you watched NGE, and you like that kind of concept madoka is very similar and has a ton of parallels even to the way that the actual fighting styles mirror EVAs
But that shinji complex is super strong in a ton of things that came after it. That's why if you watch it after and you've seen a bunch of stuff that was done because of evangelion then it appears lesser, it's like watching citizen Kane.Originally posted by unwashedTry to use a phone camera in broad daylight or use a proper camera.Originally posted by AhimsaI've found it extremely pleasant and enthralling over repeated whiffs so I would highly recommend.

Originally posted by MJRH View Post^Thanks for that. I know nothing about anime, and could never get into NGE. With the Kane comparison in mind, maybe I'll give it another go.
I'm also quite fond of the show because it portrays some people I know in real life to a T, down to the relationship mechanics - it's like Anno knew these people. It's weird.who slips in to my body and whispers to my ghost?
