Panache

Spreading hate for Christians...how quaint. I guess it feels good to be hated. EDIT: If a band tried to shove a message like that(lets say their anti Muslim or something) I probably wouldn't listen to them. I mean if you have an opinion on something that's fine. And hell if you can bring up some valid points on the side of the music I might listen to you. But if your gonna be like "**** all Muslims" I'm gonna be like "no **** you." (I have no beef with the Muslims and I do not hate them regardless of what some of their radicals do).

[B]The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya 0-3[/B] Excellent. I don't like it as much as I like Kamichu so far but it's really awesome. I got a question for Dues Ex though. Since you were relatively new to anime when you saw episode zero how did you feel about it? Did it confuse you a little bit? It seemed as if it was aimed at the more seasoned anime fan.

[quote name='desertphoenix'][FONT="Verdana"][COLOR="DarkRed"][spoiler]But Chinko couldn't penetrate Triple 7 with it.[/spoiler] That sounded kind of dirty, but besides. People always forget that Vash's revolver could take out moons;). [/COLOR][/FONT][/QUOTE] Thats true but he did break skin a little. Plus if it was TOO powerful I couldn't use it's best feature!

[QUOTE]but he doesn't really propagate any message, other than **** Christianity. And if your message is nothing but "to hell with that message", that's really no message at all.[/QUOTE]Aren't there a good number of black metal bands like that? Seems that way to me...and I think that kind of a lame reason to like a band(not saying that's the only reason you do Metalcore but there are people who are like that).

Drill wang>Vashs gun Deflecting bullets with your wang is just epic.

First I would want Chinko Drill's (from Dead Leaves) Drill Penis(yes that anime is awesome). It's pretty self explanitory why I would want this... I would wanna get Nataku (from Soul Hunter) ability to fly and attack people with crazy paopei things on his wrists. Cuz no one would mess with a guy with a drill Penis and crazy *** weapons. Then of course I would take me a Persacom (preferably sumomo) From Chobits. Cuz robot slaves are awesome.

I have only read part of the manga. The film looks promising though. I think if I have the background story from the manga(which so far is really good) the movie will turn out to be interesting.

[QUOTE]I never saw any horror element to Elfen Lied. [/QUOTE]Well I wouldn't call something like the Devils Rejects horror but the blood scares people so people call it horror... [QUOTE]EDIT: Oh, and there is an Elfen Lied thread, too.[/QUOTE] I think I posted in it before. And that tidbit was to show you that I don't blindly hate it....I have reasons... [QUOTE] It was just doing what it did - no need to go looking for deep meanings.[/QUOTE]You might think so but I browsed through that Elfen Lied thread and a lot of people seemed to dig into the subject matter and meanings a lot...

[QUOTE]I've usually seen people either hating it for no reason (YOU)[/QUOTE] I have reasons...I don't just hate things for no apparent reason... Here is a quote from another forum(it's a year or two old). [QUOTE]The blood and gore and nudity is suppose to add to the dark scene. I disagree. I think it killed any darkness in the scene. Darkness in my opinion should be very subtle. That's how it will disturb me. I believe they did all the blood and gore and stuff so they could gain that audience. The audience was a gore hound audience. When they did horrible things to people it seemed obvious(at least to me) that they were trying to shock you. Not make any sort of statement. Not anything like that. To shock you and get you scared. In the whole horror movie aspect this anime was good. If you came into this looking to be scared and you are scared by this sort of thing this is a good anime. All these people who say "Oh it's making a statement about society." OK so I thought about it and this is what they are trying to say. People are evil. No matter what they do they are evil. All bullies deserve to die. We will be extinct if we don't stop something unstoppable. People really suck. That's all I can find. So basically to me if I look past the violence and try to find a meaning the only thing there is basically "People suck,no matter what just because they are people. Women are dangerous angry and evil and men are weak,power hungry, and evil " So basically If I view this as a serious anime and think about it it pisses me off. If I watch it for what I really think it is (a horror flick) it is boring. [/QUOTE]

Well we will see once I finish GTO now won't we? [QUOTE]Elfen Lied has THE most divergent opinion I've ever seen. It's like two camps of 'hate it utterly' and 'love it too damn much.'[/QUOTE] I can't help that I hate it...and to be fair the love it too damn much section is larger.

[QUOTE]Firstly, no, not really. But it means the chances of it being good (or at least that you'll like it) are decently high. I personally didn't think Haruhi quite lived up to the mega hype surrounding it but I did enjoy it. ... And I happen to be listening to Hare Hare Yukai right now so, you know, it's stuck with me one way or another.[/QUOTE]What could live up to the hype? and I guess even though things have a lot of fans and hype they can still suck(to me at least). I mean look at Elfen Lied...I hate that and it has thousands of fanboys and girls.

[QUOTE]Kamichu is a rare gem of a show, but Haruhi is an equally rare gem of a show. Both are worthy of mega-praise though Haruhi gets extra points for energy. [/QUOTE] Well seeing as how a whole crap load of people worship haruhi like God it's gotta be good right? Oh and the lead character of Haruhi is a god as well right?

[QUOTE]Haruhi is short, so it should be easy. I, too, am looking forward to watching GTO. Anyway, yeah, Kamichu is great, though I really wich you's stop overusing the word 'sex' and 'smexy'. In any event, I'll be getting the Shrine Box for Xmas ^_^[/QUOTE] Meh I chose GTO and It was worth it...keeps getting smexier and smexier(btw I do that offline tooo...). Haruhi looks OK doubt I doubt it will be as good as Kamichu. Oh and the Shrine set is well worth it. [B]GTO 36-29[/B] Wow Onizuka is the most resilient character ever.

[B]Fear of a Blank Planet-Porcupine Tree[/B] Wow this is such a smexy song. Besides the nice beat and melody it's got some awesome lines such as [QUOTE]X-Box is a god to me A finger on the switch My mother is a ***** My father gave up ever trying to talk to me[/QUOTE] [QUOTE]I'm through with pornography The acting is lame The action is tame Explicitly dull Arousal annulled[/QUOTE] Amazing song...

[B]Kamichu 15-16 [/B] Oh man that was such a damn smexy ending. This is my new second favorite anime evar. It makes me really sad that Geneon got canned...Bah now it's time to finish onizuka and watch Haruhi...wonder which one I should do first.

[quote name='Deus ex Machina'][COLOR="DarkOrange"]What forums do you frequent? Moe is definitely one of te most discussed things I've seen, namely debates over just what the hell it is, but more-so debates on wether it's good or 'destroying anime' as many fans seem to believe. If you want, I could point you in the direction of some great discussions or blog posts on the subject. [/COLOR][/QUOTE] I spend a majority of my time at T.H.E.M. I occasionally post at ANN and Gaia(gaia sucks btw). Anyway as long as the people at these forums aren't elitist snobs go ahead.

[quote name='Deus ex Machina'][COLOR="DarkOrange"]Try the biggest deal in 21st Century anime fandom period. Probably the most discussed topic in the past couple years. EDIT: I shouldn't make that statement, having only been in the scene for around a half year, but from what I've read, I'd say it's accurate. [/COLOR][/QUOTE] I haven't seen it discussed on any forums I frequent. And one of the biggest deals in the anime fandom period? Cmon.

Whoa. I just thought moe meant a cute and sorta small character. I didn't know all that stuff went into it...It's really not a big deal though is it? I guess by the way Fasteriskhead explained it she isn't moe...because she is a somewhat developed character.

[IMG]http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/bb213/Aboywearingvans/050721_cd_kamichu.jpg[/IMG] Pfft Yurie IS moe!

[QUOTE]one of the best shows EVAR.[/QUOTE]Aww your just saying that cuz the lead character is probably the best moe character evar...seriously though this show has changed my opinion of moe. [URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KtBWoeZuVTI"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KtBWoeZuVTI[/URL] Oh and that Ending Theme is so epic...sure it's not to complicated but the dance...oh the dance.

[B]Kamichu 13-14[/B] Smex...Ok so no real plot developed but still...smex. It's like whispers of the heart done better and a series.

Might wanna use spoiler tags for that bud. Anyway my most tragic death I have witnessed in an anime is from [B]Mahoromatic Maiden[/B] [spoiler]When Mahoro died I was literally cried for like 20 minutes even after she came back to life. You knew it was coming but when it came...oh dear Jesus is was tragic. I was so happy when things worked out I cried again...that was a damn good series.[/spoiler] [B]Saber Marionette J[/B] [spoiler]When the red head died...to be honest I didn't know if I could go on watching...this was incredibly sad. She died for basically no reason and she was such a great character. Luckily she came back later. then Marine died and she is my favorite character of all time...I was crushed...luckily I was so enthralled by the series itself I kept watching.[/spoiler] Thats about it.

[B]GTO ep 24-29[/B] Even better than season 1. They changed some stuff around it's still all good.

Well [IMG]http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/bb213/Aboywearingvans/puscifer2.jpg[/IMG] It's all bout Puscifers new album for me. EVERY song on that album was sex. Momma Sed was probably the sexiest song though. This is a good first album if I ever heard one. Cant' wait to see what happens in the future with them. [IMG]http://i211.photobucket.com/albums/bb213/Aboywearingvans/pca.jpg[/IMG] Their album is pretty good too. 2nd place for me. Next year? I am really looking forward to Slipknots new album and Mudvaynes new album. Dull boy from Mudvayne is good and if all their new songs are like that then the album will be great. Pretty much everything that comes from Slipknot I like so I know they won't disappoint.

Oh one thing I think I should add. Labyrinth of Darkness is a bunch of film SHORTS. They all have very little dialogue and are basically art films...if you don't get into the atmosphere setting and claymation aesthetic then you wont like it.
