I like cg films (still not seen avatar, didn't buy into the world first hype as it was false), although I prefer the human characters (suppose a more of a asian/japanese approach) to the likes of pixar as to get a more lifelike character is a lot more effort than a cartoon one due to the sheer subtlety needed for realism. Not saying pixar is bad or anything though. I suppose you could say because I have an understanding of the effort involved I appreciate the amount of work that is sometimes needed to do something really simple.

I've also just gone and watched the planzet film, the cg was pretty good (they knew what depth of field is!) although lip sync/animation was dreadful in places. The story was ok but like memyselfandi said it does feel like its the end of a series rather than a standalone film.
 
Watched ep 7.5 of sora no woto last night,Was definately the `missing episode`it tells how Kanata discovers the secret of the locked door
I watched this series twice looking for the part where she was told what was inside the room and failed to find it,now I know why.it was in this extra ep :(
 
ToHeart2 adnext OVA 1 - More of the same from the ToHeart2 stable ... reasonably amusing (if you are familiar with the series) but not enough Tamaki (except during the ED).

I want to see more Yuki cause I still feel she has been left out a lot. I also found it surprising how Sasara was featured in the opening sequence quite predominantly so I wonder what that's all about? But I wouldn't mind more of her as well. I also want to see something about Lucy Maria Misora. The extra bit at the end, that was funny. Now I want to see more more of Konomi's mother. :D
 
Well watched my replacement disks for the first Toradora boxset and they are quite a bit better than the originally shipped ones, (my replacements also have no scratches/scuff marks/etc that some people elsewhere have complained about). I wouldn't say that this series is in my all time favourites but it is still a reasonably good watch ...

... unlike something else I finished watching today. As I have been sorting stuff out I've come across a few (ok many) things which I haven't got around to watching ... for instance Library War which I watched earlier in the week ... but after that I came across a series called Gift: Eternal Rainbow and thought I'd give it a try ... at first it seemed to be a pretty poor and weak standard harem series (well if is based off a Visual Novel) but eventually descended into a rather nasty love triangle. Overall it just wasn't very entertaining. The main problem was that the characters weren't really likeable and it was a bit of a chore to actually make it through to the end of the series.
 
Second season of Sora no Oppai is under way.

Tomoki truely is ****ing awesome!

First few minutes including the opening sequence, I just couldn't stop laughing.
 
I'm not sure it was as good as the first series personally but then it is the first episode. They also changed the intro, so preferred the original.
 
Oh I thought you was on about the actual animation sequence and not the song.

Either way can't wait for next episode which will be the real one and finally some Astraea.
 
can't say that Berserk has ever been something thats been on my radar either to be honest.

Just watched the first star driver and super robots, star driver, typical bones style first episode really, just enough to introduce the main characters but not a lot else in terms of the plot. I like bones so will likely watch all of this anyways.

Super Robots - starts off with random fight on another planet and then jumps to earth, I assume there will be some link up somewhere down the line lol
 
Well fair enough, different tastes and all that, but on other forums I go to where people talk about anime/manga they are barely talking about anything else :p

After a 9 year wait I don't blame them, no one thought it would happen.

It's probably one of my favourite animes and mangas though, Gatsu is such an amazing character, second only to Ippo :D
 
Wow this Autumn = Azunyan season.

Ore no Imōto ga Konna ni Kawaii Wake ga Nai - Closet Otaku Azunyan.

MM! - God superiority complex Azunyan and a masochist Lelouch (Yeah seriously!).

Two funny shows that will certainly screw with your head.

Ironically enough, Saori Hayami, who voices Icaros in Sora no Oppai is in these as well.

Haven't got around to watching it yet but I have heard good things about Ore no Imoto. MM! is also on my to watch list as well. Something that has been dropped rather rapidly is Panty and Stocking with Garterbelt ... the styling is very much the sort which I would normally associate with bad US animation .... I think I lasted <5mins before binning it.

Re-watched the second half of Ouran at the weekend which is pretty good but I do think that the ending could have been handled a bit better.

Also currently about half way through K-On season 2 which has been very amusing so far.

edit: so watched episode 1 of Ore no Imoto this morning ... thought it was pretty good really :)
