Ah, my final post here, I just got some new anime, some not released in America so Mags I'm sorry you can't check them out.

1 Akane-Iro ni Somaru Saka- mature- An anime based of a light novel with the same name, it's a comedy. This kid rescues this girl from these guys and later kisses her due to a misunderstanding, then finds out she's his fiancee. It's good so far I haven't finished it, but I don't like how it ends. But Your milage may Vary. It's not as bad as some anime, but still mature.

2 Kamichama Karin- A magical girl series that is aimed at both guys and girls, if you like the magical girl genre check it out, if not then probably pass it up. Also, Koge-donbo's cute art style and characters (even the guys, trust me talk about bishota) will blow your mind. Out of your ears. On your butt. It's just so cute. Also "I AM GOD!" (reference)

3 Chu-Bra!!- mature- Ah, this is a total WJT (widget) series, It's a weird japanese thing. It has to deal with underwear (A lot, as the series name suggests.) The entire premise of the series is a girl obsessed with underwear and dealing with their bodies (A guy joins so the guy's can understand too) And given the premise of the series upskirts and fanservice abound, so not for younger kids, girls could watch it, since it's pretty educational, but still. Also I usually don't like fanservice, but Chu-Bra!! does it in the most insanely cute way, and i actually enjoyed watching the series. It's a new series so it's not finished yet. (Recommended if you're older or a girl.)
Also this is not something to watch in public, I'm doing laundry and people are giving me weird stares as I laugh my head off at this series, and when they come over they get a face full of underwear. Like I said, good series, actually sorta education (for girls and for guys to understand about girls) but bad in public.

4 Kono Aozora ni Yakusoku wo Youkoso Tsugumi Ryouhe- Holy long name Batman! I Finished this anime, It's really good, it's in my top 3. It's a Nakama Anime, like Clannad. it takes place on an island and is narrated by a guy who tells the story of his friends at this dorm. It has 6 arcs, one for each girl, and it tells the story of how they became friends and a family. The first 12 episodes go over the individual arcs, each girls has 2 episodes, The final goes over the final day where they have a going away party. The ending doesn't say who the guy ends up with so this is a HUGE shipping fest. I personally think UmixWataru is the best. But NaokoxWataru is good too. Anyway this is a good anime that will probably make you a little sad, it's touching and it's emotionally impacting (but not for the same reasons Clannad is though they are similar on parts) The series ends without a lot of closure leaving you to determine what you think happens.

There, my final post in this thread relating to anime I've watched for a while. Hope you like my reviews.

An anime I want to watch is Moetan (Don't judge me) it's a show that teaches japanese anime fans english although the phrases wouldn't come in handy except in extreme circumstances.

ANY I also notice I'm definately our resident (for lack of better word) otaku.

Edit: I wrote a review for Kono Aozora ni yakusoku wo. It's a really good anime. Also I leave you with a top 3 list of my favorite anime.
1 - Clannad/~Afterstory~
2 - Kono Aozora ni Yakusoku wo
3 - Tie between Chu-Bra!! and Gurren Lagann

Also, I wasn't here today. *wink*

So it's like Zelda, in a way? It sets stuff up but leaves some of it open for a fan's interpretation?

...Does this mean there's a No Export for You thing here? :C

It's more open to interpretation, we got people leaving the Island, some staying, some unknown, absolutely no relationship closure, but it's still really good.

And it's probably a No Export.

But luckily I saw the whole Clannad anime at F.Y.E. So go buy it A.S.A.P. Mags.

Also, been watching Moetan, Cute anime with a metric ton of loli magical girl fanservice, but not many but hardcore Otaku will like it.

MagmarFire

But I need the moneh! D:

Hopefully that job will pull through in the end.

1 - OneManga is removing its scnalations, for those who frequent the site.
2 - I saw Evangelion 1.0 last night. A must for NGE fans. If you do get worried that it's basically reamking every episode with better animation and more epic fight scenes, that final scene will assure you that the rest of the Rebuild of Evangelion series will differ from the television series.

MagmarFire

I figure it's time for me to give an update...

As you guys...most likely already know, I have a job, with which I was able to purchase CLANNAD and The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya.

Gurren Lagann is the best anime ever. The end.

You obviously know that I think CLANNAD's good, so I'll skip the, "OMZVG WATCH CLANNAD IT RULEZ!!!111!" ...However, I cannot wait for Afterstory's dub. COME OUT ALREADY, DANG IT!!! DX Also, GO FU-CHAN!!! :D

Haruhi Suzumiya is also good. And yes, some of the concepts are confusing. ...What the heck happened three years ago!? D: (I also find it strange that its default language setting is the warped one. A minor annoyance, but I wish I changed the settings before I watched the bonus episode. XD )

I also bought Azumanga Daioh this morning on Amazon.com (as well as Metroid Prime Trilogy, w00t!). It should be coming in tomorrow.

You'll see what happened Three years ago in season two when it comes out.

Bamboo Leaf Rhapsody...

MagmarFire

That doesn't include the Endless Eight, does it? D:

Also, unfortunately, I felt the need to cancel my Azumanga Daioh order; since I'm preordering three games currently, I need to cut costs. Plus, it's taking for-freaking-ever to come in... @_@

Azumanga Daioh is great, but it's one of the things you can get and watch anytime.

And I do believe that the first discs will have endless 9 and bamboo leaf, or at least the first of endless 8, then the second disc will have the boredom and the last of endless 8. And Endless 8 wasn't horrible, just repetitive. We get some awesome shipping at the end, so it's allllll good.

MagmarFire

Yeah, maybe. I still plan on getting it, but with Metroid: Other M, Birth by Sleep, and Skyward Sword preorders inflating my account (as well as my college books, which I still need to get, admittedly)...yeah.

Repetition is kind of a toss-up for me. Sometimes, it's okay, but of course, in video game media especially, it's freaking annoying... Still, if the payoff at the end is good, then maybe it's worth it.

TORADORA!!!!

So freaking much.

A must watch for any romance, or tsundere, fans.

It's such a great anime, it'll definately give me my usual, "Awesome Romance Anime Up-All-Night Jitters."

Watch it, 'cept you Mags, don't know where you'll be able to find it.

MagmarFire

Do want to see.

...And yeah, I don't know where it is. Amazon doesn't have it. What gives? D:

It's the ultimate in tsundere anime, no lie, of course with Taiga (the main girl) being voiced by the Queen on Tsundere herself, Rie Kugimiya-sama, it's guaranteed to be great, not to mention it's known as one of her best roles and she got several awards for it.

Taiga has to be the most thought out tsundere I've ever come across.

I know it's been licenced just recently (and released with english subs on DVD) but I don't know where.
