Saw it the other week. Its pretty cool. Bloody as a Bloody Mary in a vampire bar though.

If you like Bloody you should watch Berserk, i thought it was awesome, although i didnt like the ending.....

I have been watching Sayonara zetsubou sensei by Shaft. Its turning out to be a damn good but slightly twisted comedy. Give it 3 episodes and then decide. The teacher happens to be mr "extreme negative" and takes the worst possible view in any situation, just as he decides that its time to end it all he meets miss "extreme positive". Now she cannot see the badness in any situation. Cue him teaching a class of spit personality, hermit, manic obsessive, internet idol's and hermit's and its all set up to be a really twisted but funny anime.

You can grab some eps from baka-updates.com and I don't think its licensed yet.

Tis an old thread but worthy of resurrection. Right Stuf is clearing out a load of dvds and series
http://www.rightstuf.com/rssite/

Is £18 the limit on dvds imported? I think this went up recently? Some of them are down to about £2 a dvd!

There does seem to be a lack of really epic anime out at the moment, almost seems to be a factory line. The one that I say is worth a watch at the moment is Soul Eater. The style is rather off the wall and I wasn't sure at first. However give it a few eps and it develops into a good story.

Essentially its about Shinigami's, "weapons", and Meistes (weapon users). If you had a person that always grew up as a weapon, they need a Meistes to be able to fight demons. The weapons and Meistes get stronger by eating the souls of demons after they lose. Throw a good helping of comedy in and you have Soul Eater. Worth a watch.

At the moment I'm watching Samurai Champloo again which has similar themed humour to Cowboy Bepop. To balance the scales i'll watch Aoi Yori Aosi which is a beautiful love story around an arranged marrage between two powerful clans. It didn't go to plan and the story starts from there. It's not all about mindless fighting in anime.

Bit of a cheeky post, but anyone still into anime?
I ask as I'm thinking of selling on my Cowboy Bebop and Full Metal Panic boxsets and I'd rather they went to someone I know as they're in such immaculate nick

Wossi · 15-01-2009, 08:24

I might be interested in the Full Metal Panic Boxsets. Is it the first one, fumoffu or second raid?

Haly · 15-01-2009, 11:20

It's the first one

http://www.play.com/DVD/DVD/4-/34376...tml?P36=C26JXU This one to be exact. Not even watched half the discs

Wossi · 15-01-2009, 11:52

Cool, yeah I'll take it off you if it's okay. If you let me know how much you want and how you want paying I'll get it sorted
