  1. What anime have you seen or heard about which is seemingly divisive. This is not to say universally panned, or somthing you don't like but rather a show or film that has a split community some seeing it as... Not good and others who claim it's a masterpiece. The one I immediately think of is Madoka Magica Rebellion it seems when that sequel film hit it caused many a magical girl fan to despair. It also seems to have a fair amount of defenders. In fact nowadays it seems to have more defenders than detractors. As I watched it about a week after the show, I saw it as a perfect continuation. Yet when I went online to look up critiques I saw tones of videos defending the film, and a nice amount if comments calling the film terrible because 'it ruined the characters'. So that certainly one divisive anime I can think off. Obvious Evangelions original ending or the endless eight arcs are certainly another two. But what other divisive anime can you guys on here think off?
  2. Playing Zomboid with a few friends. Currently I'm sort-of a murder hobo by accident - I've killed one player several times due to mishaps and him getting infected and me mercy killing him.
  3. Welcome to the anime forums, I see you have the proxy of death as your avatar so good taste.
  4. Fate Zero, Psycho Pass or Madoka Magica. If tragedy is not your style then perhaps Steins Gate. Other than that Berserk (1997) or Monster are again great choices. Not sure what manhwa is however, and as for Manga obviously I know Monster and Berserk are Manga source but I haven't read much Manga. But if there anime are anything to go on then they must be awesome manga too.
  5. Currently just re-watched Heaven FeaI Lost Butterfly, just reached the credits and listening to I beg you by Aimer. I cannot wait for march. It can't come sooner.
  6. I try to keep my watch list low, I've thrown so many anime into the 'too watch list'.
  7. Currently watching Witch Hunter Robin, Death Note and I'm re-watching Madoka Magica. After that I think I'm gonna sit through Gurran Lagann and then maybe get through the first arc of Hunter X Hunter 2011.
  8. Currently watching Witch Hunter Robin and re-watching Steins Gate.
  9. I see it, you're always appears under every post. So you link the MAL profile you you're signature? Edit: Just added a signature to my MAL. Now to make some funny gifs later.
  10. When I finished Blue Gender I looked for it in the database, it wasn't there which isn't surprising as it pretty obscure as mecha-anime go. Also I checked the 'C' letter and Code Geass was missing... So I compel you to add Code Geass... with a polite suggestion if it isn't too much of a bother.
  11. You know I like that, it pretty close to how I view things. Your point on eight almost mirrors what I feel about all might eight out of tens, very good but room for improvement but still something I'd easily recommend. Not sure how I rank 7, I don't necessarily see 7 as mindless entertainment because I put the original EVA series as a seven and that show isn't mindless. I think for how I define a 7 is that the show is lacking something, that might be direction, pacing. But it still a good show. 5 is my average, so 6 is above average and 4 below average. I try to steer clear of anime that more likely going to irk me into throwing it down into 5 territory. As a result the bottom of my list and how I define 'bad anime' is pretty hard. I suppose it going on instinct - I hated MD Geist and gave that a 3, but Kokoro Connect was somthing I couldn't even sit threw so easy 2. As for my top scores, I don't really worry if something needs to be accessible to newbies or the elites holy grail on Anime it just, if I consider it a masterpiece and constantly find myself reflecting on the show its got to be a 10 out of 10. I often see my 10 out of 10s there for as very subjective and they could easily find themselves as 9 or 8's in someone else's list. For example my top show Monster isn't something I'm gonna recommend a newbie who might have only watched Pokémon because that just impossible to expect. But it's still a masterpiece in my opinion. Just checked you're anime list out and trust me, you got to give Stein's Gate another chance. Currently sitting on three episodes and believe me that show get good. Really good. Also I'll repost my anime list, cause it probably buried somewhere in this thread and I haven't link it to my posts because I have no idea how AnimePedestrian's Anime List - MyAnimeList.net
  12. Okay I'd watched anime before this one, but the Anime that got me into Anime Culture and generally seeing myself as a consumer of Japanese Cartoons would have to be Fate Zero; I mean after the show I for the first time unironically called a 2D girl my waifu
  13. Welcome to the forums. I've only been into anime for about over a year. However luckily in this case nearly all the shows I watch fall into either action, thriller or psychological (and space opera) so I have some recommendations for once. Action/thriller anime recommendations would be Psycho Pass season 1, Steins Gate (a little lacking in action), Monster (another brilliant thriller but again not much action) and Fate Zero.
  14. Just finished Code Geass R2. Its been on my list since I finished the first season, so I decided to blown through it.
  15. 6:40 to 6:49 takes place during that very weird montage sequence. In the subbed version you can find online it ends with a similar cacophony of Japanese voice overs and massive walls of subs. Not kidding. Sadly when it came to making prototype, the direction for it was to be like a trailer for a potential what if series. So that sequence plays out to show off the different character motivations and plot beats of the story. It not the greatest. I've only slightly altered the opening, bringing the images at the start more in line with the music beats. But thanks for the feedback @Soramee_, if the guys who did this dub originally still have there original non-edited takes it would make editing this a lot easier. And might even make the changes you suggested possible. However I'd imagine the team behind this fan dub has long since disbanded.
  16. Just found out the dub of Fate Grand Order Camalot came out. Looks pretty good.

    Now I just got to get my hands on it. 

  17. That counts man, it always a good moment when somthing awesome just comes out of nowhere and hype builds for its new release.
  18. You're watching an anime and a moment occurs, something that you personally think is super cool and awesome. For me it anytime the opening or ending song is referenced in the show; in Ergo Proxy one of the episodes begins with the main character having to guess the opening in a quiz, the other time I can remember this happening is when in Madoka Magica an instrumental version of the song plays during there time at an arcada and again in Rebellion, Madoka Magica Side Story also did it with the opening song playing on the radio in one of the episodes and more recently when I watched Paranoia Agent in the episode Mellow Maromi when it begins to play on the Radio in the car. Those are just some of the instances I can remember it happening in Anime I've watched and there always some of my favourite moments. I have no idea why, but like Cold Opens I just think it really good for some reason. But what are some of you're guys favourite moments in anime.
  19. @Soramee_ Here it is, the dub was by a group called Dubsquad and I think the original edit was done by a group called Vulagr Daikaiju Productions. So this is my re-edit, if you see any mistakes let me know and I'll attempt to fix any errors. Fate Prototype Dub 1080p.mp4
  20. I didn't make the Dan dub, I found it on internet archive. However the quality of the video up on there left as a lot to be desired. For a time I didn't think I could fix it as the only uploaded prototype video's on YouTube were full of locked subtitles. However I then found a clean version with no subtitles. At that point it was just a matter of editing the fan dub and the animation together. I made some improvements, tinkered with a couple scenes. Luckily the dub was mostly in sync. I'll upload it later today, gonna give it one last check to look out for errors.
  21. No problem. The font they used is a little big, but you could just copy and past into a Google Doc and adjust it to preference if it's an issue. I sort of wonder how there direct translations and my clumsy efforts at bashing audio drama translations, anime dub lines, the opening panels from a manga and pure inventions differ. Also I finally finished the edit for the fate Prototype fan dub. That took way longer than it needed too. Funny enough the dub grew on me in the end. At first I thought it was a little cringe but emeshing myself in editing that fan dub now as me appreciating how the guy who voiced Arthur said the line 'saber'.
  22. Turns out I wasn't the only one, seam's there was a team doing a translation project. They released there's about two weeks ago. That's pretty cool, I'll provide the link about for you to check out.
  23. Just finished Paranoia Agent. That show had a surprising and surreal ending. It reminded me a little of Ergo Proxy. 

    It also shared some of the same faults, such as a few episodes that are a little filler feeling, not progressing the main mystery or narrative. 

    However the show did have a climatic ending, and the 'final twist' was satisfying.

      I haven’t watched Ergo Proxy, but Paranoia Agent is my favorite Satoshi Kon work & a recommendation anytime someone asks for psychological anime series.

      It was a very good show, I just feel the episode following those three characters was filler. The ending also seems to be something hotly debated.

      I don't want to get into spoiler territory but it's interesting how that ending has so many theories attached too. 

  24. @Mr.CopySmile22 welcome to the forums, everyone on here's pretty friendly so you shouldn't have a problem fitting in
