If anyone is considering buying the new Robotech release "Love Live Alive", DON'T!

It's only available packaged with another release of Shadow Chronicles.

It's 84 minutes + credits. 74ish of those minutes are a retelling of the New Generation storyline (aka Genesis Climber Mospeada) with 98% of that the original footage. 6 minutes are music videos with new versions of "We Will Win" and "Lonely Soldier Boy". The other 2 minutes are new footage that appears at the very end of the movie.

Fucking can't find new manga scans of bleach anywhere. On the final arc, and its getting pretty good, but I guess they cracked down on online reading sites.

Must be just the bleach guys and not shonen jump!, cause new issues of naruto and one piece still are going up every week.

Got hooked on Mushi-Shi. Probably going to take some of the recommendations in this thread after I finish the series. FMA seems like a next logical step.

I think I enjoy Dragonball Z abridged now, more than I ever enjoyed Dragonball Z as a kid.

But Dragonball AF is totally real and way better than all that shit. I mean have you seen Super Saiyan 5 Goku!?!?! like zomg wut

Sorry, that came straight from like 10 years ago when I still thought they would make another series.

I was so angry when they announced the anime adaptation was ending. Either way, plan on reading the final arc once it is all said and done.

So they aren't animating the last arc?

Its also great to know that various voice actors are fans of it as well. That, and its actually consistently well done and has PLENTY of source material to lampoon, in both plot and minor details (like that bit about drinking Hetap, or when Roshi kept changing what he was sipping on until it became beer).

For the record, I was always a bigger fan of DB than Z, so Abridged oddly seems more natural to me.

I just looked up this Dragonball Z Abridged thing and am now "laughing my ass off".

The fan series is pretty great. Think the running gag involving Krillian and an "owned" counter might be my favorite thing from the series.

I think they will animate the last arc but not until it's finished so as to avoid another filler interruption.

What sites still carry bleach and naruto manga?

My friend uses mangatraders, I haven't read the latest yet since I just use youtube for it but my friend said that Kubo is saying that there is only going to be 1 more volume left for Bleach.

Sorry, I meant that he uses mangastream, it was mangatraders but they were the ones that got a CND order on Bleach and Naruto.

I've been using this for Bleach, Naruto, and One Piece.

Thanks

Honestly, Bleach is the only one I really care about. Never got into One Piece, and Narutos been kinda shitty for quite a while IMO.

Stopped watching the naruto anime a long time ago, because the flashbacks occurred at an absurd frequency. Only actually watched the end of part one once, but I feel like I've seen the naruto vs sasuke fight literally a hundred times.

Those are the three mangas I used to read back when I used to read mangas. Stopped a long time ago, though. Bleach is ending soon, though? Thank goodness. From my very limited knowledge on the subject, these things tend to suffer the longer they go.

Might have to check out Bleach. Though if I recall, I was already not too crazy about the direction it was going in when I stopped. Stopped around sometime after they finished that story arc where they went to heaven or something.

Stopped reading Naruto shortly after the time jump, and stopped reading One Piece after they got that new crew member who built them a new ship.

Outside of the last arc, bleach has been pretty damn enjoyable. Post time jump naruto was enjoyable at first, but it starts to slip after the pain arc.

Speaking of Bleach:

I think the current fight with Madara has been pretty enjoyable.

The whole ninja war thing started out alright, but I feel like there's been more and more contrived nonsensical shit happening.

It's not been all bad, but I'm just not feeling it.

I'll agree the fighting parts have been pretty routine (e.g. bad guy gets strong, good guy gets stronger - wash, rinse, and repeat), but the actual story elements have been good like

Had no idea about that Bardock movie that came out a couple years ago.

Was okay I guess. dbz plot is always absurd, but this one pretty much takes the cake. Also, Christ almighty were those aliens horribly designed. Looked like a 4 year olds doodles.

Yeah and it came with an updated version of "Plan to eradicate the super saiyans" or something.

They also released a movie a few months ago in theatres in Japan called Dragon Ball: Battle of Gods that is considered actual canon in the story and takes place in the empty time after the defeat of Majin Buu.

If you aren't watching RWBY, you should be.

I don't know what that is, but apparently it's made by Monty Oum, so I'm sold.

Watching subtitled DBZ: Battle of the Gods right now. Totally getting wood.

Anyone interested in watching free anime, there is a new app on the 360 called Viki. It lets you watch tv from around the world including classic stuff like Popeye as well as 28 different animes and growing. All of these are free for some reason.

I watch free TV regardless.

Been getting into anime and manga more recently.

Watched the entire series of Fullmetal Alchemist. I prefer the subbed to dubbed if I am honest. Reading the manga now to see where the stories arc off each other.

Reading one piece from the beginning now.

Anyone seen or read blue exorcist. That is quite good.

Attack on Titan I can highly highly recommend to everyone. The anime is amazing.

I have not got into Titan yet. Been hearing so much, need to see if a dub is out. Also gonna check out Kill la Kill, because I like zany 'power up' hype shit.

I hate subs, I need English vocals with anime. I can only stand subs when it's live-action Jap films.

Barring dubs that are really exceptional, I pretty much always go with subs. Just looks and sounds more natural to me.

Exactly. It just feels less forced than some of the really cheesy dubs.

If you want a cheesy dub, you should check out the Transformers series Headmasters, Super-God Masterforce, and Victory.

There is no such thing as good Transformers anime.

Robots in Disguise
The Unicron Trilogy

...All garbage.
