[center][font=lucida sans unicode,lucida grande,sans-serif][size=5][color=#008080][size=4]I have netflix and I've recently noticed the selection of anime thinning out. So what are some good animes on netflix that I should watch. Something not too gory but entertaing. [/size][/color][/size][/font][/center]

A little bit of topic thievery today. [quote name='zoombie @ toonzone]It is no secret that in the world of manga / anime there are many male characters that have long hair, wear makeup, and some even wear a female top. And some effeminate characters as well. There is a difference between looking like a girl and being effeminate in my opinion. For example, Umichika from Bleach is one of the more effeminate characters ever, and I have no trouble telling that is a guy. There are some that does fall into both categories. What characters did you at first look either mistake for a girl or had to look twice to be sure?[/quote] [IMG]http://img218.imageshack.us/img218/7664/akari02qh3.jpg[/IMG] Akari (Samurai Deeper Kyo) - He hasn't appeared in the anime, at least I don't think he has. (I stopped watching way early) But seeing him in the manga, I swear had they not mentioned that he was a man I wouldn't have ever guessed it.

If I were never told that he was Okita I would've never guessed it. (I better be on guard with Hakuouki... It's a lot of guys in the series.)

[quote name='Shinmaru' date='28 July 2010 - 06:20 PM' timestamp='1280355624' post='698143'] Probably the worst I've finished is the [b]X[/b] movie, but even that is kind of fun in a totally trashy way, even if it makes absolutely no sense and is completely stupid. [/quote] [color=indigo]I truly can't believe anyone liked [b]Alien Nine[/b]...are you sure you aren't just screwing with me Shin? I agree with you about [b]X[/b] though, and am chagrined that I didn't mention it. I own that movie and have no idea what it s about. Every now and then I'll watch it just to see if I can finally make sense of it. Never is going to happen... To defend [b]Naruto[/b] one more time I will state this, if you remove all the fillers it is a great story of acceptance, of friendship, and of growing up. The character development has been fairly decent and the plot (not the fillers) always serves a purpose. As for the animation, I was actually a fan of the Naruto vs Pain and Naruto vs Sasuke fights. I like that almost old school sort of choppy animation, it kind of reminds me of [b]Ghost in the Shell[/b] and [b]Demon City Shinjuku[/b] (even the animated scene in [b]Kill Bill[/b]). I wouldn't have minded if all of Shippuden had been animated in that manner (though I am sure to be alone in my opinion on that one). [/color]
