What is everyone currently watching? What are your thoughts!?
Ohayotaku replied to bootsies's topic in Anime Discussion
Planet With - continues to be the best series of the Summer 2018 season IMO My Hero Academia season 3 - after wrapping up the rather weak licensing exam arc, saturday's ep set the stage for a return to greatness, starting with a confrontation that's been brewing since episode 1 Asobi Asobase - it's "comedy" is absurdist & frequently vulgar marked by jarring contrasts in artistic style. And I almost always have to hit pause at least once per episode because I'm laughing so hard I feel like I'm about to pass out . Of course the conclusion of each episode is followed by a rather awkward period of soul searching as I try to come to terms with what the fact that I find this funny says about me as a person. Gegege no Kitaro (2018) - no new episode this week. As happy as I am that it's getting a continuation with a new arc in the fall season, I really hope they spend the last couple episodes giving some sort of resolution to that creepy youkai that's been stalking Mana & stirring up trouble since the first ep (no, not Ratman, I'm talking about Nanshi (Nameless)) A Certain Magical Index - figured I would give this series another try (I made it to episode 6 a couple years ago) since it's getting another season coming up. Really not feeling it though and will probably drop again. -

Ohayotaku replied to thetacogod57's topic in Anime Discussion
Strongly agree As far as some of my own: Little kid Goku (before Z) was funny, but adult Goku is a derp Louie the Rune Soldier was funnier than Slayers .Hack//sign is better than SAO I actually like the OP song to Attack on Titan season 3 Cowboy Bebop ended the way it needed to & doesn't need a sequel And Spike/Faye would NOT be a good couple I don't hate Ichigo from Darling in the Franxx & best girl was Ikuno (posting pictures because otherwise no one will even know who I'm talking about) -
*ok, Lan isn't actually a dog girl, but that's my choice anyway

For Romance, Adventure, Magic maybe try Witchcraft Works , The Ancient Magus Bride, Pretear and Princess Tutu Maoyu is fantasy/romance. I suppose Kobato would qualify as well though it's set in the present day ReLife (the OVA in particular) is highschool romance with an interesting twist to it

I was pretty big into Marvel comics from the late 70’s through the 90’s, primarily the Spider-Man & X-men related titles. I remember the first appearance of characters like Cloak & Dagger and Hobgoblin, Apocalypse, Deadpool & Cable. And storylines like Days of Future Past, Kraven’s Last Hunt, Secret Wars & Infinity Gauntlet. I never really got into DC comics though I liked Batman the Animated series. The only alternative title I was really into was Wendy & Richard Pini’s Elfquest. For me, comics largely fell by the wayside once I started collecting anime tapes/discs in the mid/late 90’s (simply a matter of free time & money, especially with video games also in the mix).

Gegege no Kitaro - focuses on yokai. The stories usually have a “lesson” behind them & there are some horrr elements, but there is a lot of comedy as well and most characters are cartoonish in appearance. Princess Resurection is a supernatural harem series that pays homage to a lot of horror movie tropes. Rosario Vampire is an ecchi harem series with various monsters. And Karin (aka Chibi Vampire) is a cute romcom with a family of vampires. Finally, I’d like to add my approval to Interviews with Monster Girls & Flying Witch

I just finished watching Castle of Cagliostro for the first time (despite the fact that I've been watching anime for decades, there are still some "classics" I've never seen). I haven't really been a fan of Lupin III, but I enjoyed this. And never underesitmate Fujiko -
Here are some of mine As you can see, I was mostly into RPGs, but I also enjoy Capcom fighters (Street Fighter, Dark Stalkers, Marvel) and a lot of the classic 2D platformers (Mario & Sonic). Also the Castlevania games. Most of what I play anymore are on my DS, though I'm thinking of getting a Switch. I still have most of my old systems: Genesis/Sega CD, Saturn, Dreamcast, Game Cube, PS1 & 2, XBox 360 (I loaned my SNES to my sister when she went off to college & it went MIA)

Now that I'm caught up with Attack on Titan , I've started watching Is it Wrong to Try to Pick up Girls in a Dungeon? in addition to my weekly streaming series. -
I always think of Perfect Blue & Paranoia Agent when it comes to mystery & suspense. And Monster would be great except you can't find it anywhere.

If I could make a suggestion, maybe try Mob Psycho 100 Mob vs Koyama - Full Fight HD | Mob Psycho 100 - YouTube

Almost finished with Attack on Titan season 2. I had put the series on hold after season 1, but have heard some fairly positive things about the currently airing season, so I decided to dive back in. The current season of anime has been fairly weak IMO, but there are some series I'm enjoying somewhat: Planet With, Gegege no Kitaro, Overlord season 3, My Hero Academia season 3 (though I'm not really liking the Licensing Exam arc). I was watching the remake of Star Blazers 2202 (and enjoying it) until it went on hiatus. -
Since you enjoyed One Punch Man, maybe try Mob Psycho 100. It has a similar art style & tongue-in-cheek manner (think it might actially be by the same writer)
-
I started out with Star Blazers & Galaxy Express 999 and then series like Robotech, Voltron, Tranzor Z. When I moved on to unedited anime, it was series like Ranma 1/2, Slayers, Tenchi Muyo.

What year or age did you start watching animes?
Ohayotaku replied to Shitacles's topic in Anime Discussion
My intro to anime was Star Blazers in the late 70's, early 80's which would have been when I was around 10 - 12. I didn't really get exposed to the un-edited stuff until the mid/late 90's when I actually had a job that let me buy VHS tapes/DVDs. So I've been around this stuff for awhile -
^ This is actually a better picture (sorry, but I couldn't figure out how to edit my previous post)
