^ Not even a bit of re-watching? =)
New shows -
Ride Back - Wow. Originality at its finest, but those weird motorcycles are the weirdest mecha I have ever seen. Keeping this one.
Minami-ke Okaeri - Never saw the first or second season of this show, but I liked the first episode of Okaeri. Currently getting the entire first season now. =D
Slayers Evolution-R - [fangirl] *squeal* OMG...OMG...Gaav, Hellmaster Phibrizzo, AND Valgaav all in the same OP? *bounces up and down* OMG...OMG...more episodes now, please!! <3 <3 <3 ~~~~ [/fangirl] So yeah, looking forward to seeing where this one is going. Looking good so far.
In the queue - Munto TV series.

Laura> the second season shows, particularly Tower of Druaga, are a bit hard to follow w/o having seen the previous season. :/ I'm also following Tales Abyss a bit, but haven't had time to watch everything out so far.
paradynm>I forgot to mention Maria Holic. Definitely looks interesting. Need to write up an anime preview in my blog for it. I dl'ed the first ep of Sora wo. took a glimpse here and there. Haven't seen the entire ep 1 yet.

Well, I've finished Bakuretsu Tenshi (Burst Angel), and I was very put out with the whole thing. It was great until the end - what a let down! X( Anyway, I'm not interested in the new one either, so that was a waste of time and money. Either way, I had some fun watching Ghost in The Shell: Stand Alone Complex. The Tachikoma Days segments between the episodes were a blast! ;D Soooo deliciously funny!  The series was a real intelligent production, and it gave me a headache just trying to follow along with all that information!  Still, the show was brilliant from beginning to end, and I just wish they kept it going even after the second show and subsequent movie... Which brings me to the second series - GiTS: SAC 2nd Gig. This was as good as the preceeding series, and the animation had better quality for most of it. The story was quite involved, and the growing romance between certain parties (won't mention due to spoilers) was sweet. Maybe they'll pursue that angle in the future, but if not, then at least I hope they keep the story of SAC alive somehow. And I also finished watching the Full Metal Panic? Fumoffu series. I had downloaded it, but wanted to buy the boxset when I saw it at the sale here, so I've watched it again. This time it was a lot easier to swallow the major goofiness of the show, as when I first saw it, I was like: is this really FMP? I was quite shocked at the silliness of it all, but now I enjoy it thoroughly! ;D Does anyone else really like Chidori? I really love the character, as she has the angry side but a serious sense of duty and even a major soft side. She's gorgeous to boot! I'm sure that many people love Teresa, but I find her a bit too annoying. Anyway, the only one I haven't watched is Full Metal Panic! TSR. I have never watched the first series, so I was wondering if I should wait until I buy that first before I watch TSR? Anyone who's seen the two please tell me if that's best. I know they're in direct first/second line, but if I watched TSR, would I miss out on a lot from the first series? I'm not worried about Fumoffu, as that one's a standalone..... |

So, nobody can tell me about FMP:TSR, eh? Shame...

Actually, I just started watching the Spice and The Wolf I downloaded a bit back. How do you like it so far? ;D @ David - Are you asking if it's a good idea to watch TSR before you watch the original Gonzo version? If that's the case, you should probably want to watch the first series. Especially since a major villain from the 1st season pops up a lot in TSR. You might find yourself scratching your head trying to figure out why the main characters despise him so much. Other than that, I think you should be OK. |

Yay~ Glad to hear you have a favorable opinion of the series so far, Andy. Horo's definitely a great character. So cute and sly. ^^

It's just that it's probably going to take some time before that particular set is available, so I wanted to watch the TSR series. Kinda like how I watched GiTS SAC: Soild State Society before I even saw the shows before it...

Started watching volume 3 of Kanon. I saw the final episode of Makoto's arc and that was enough for me last night. I need a break from all these tearjerkers I've been watching lately.
