the ending of Higurashi season 1 was horrible imo. period. haven't seen season 2 yet, but after the way the first season ended, i got turned off completely.

You should stick with Higurashi tho, everything will make sense in the second season. I know it feels like it ended abruptly, but seriously just keep wacthing.

why would anyone really submit themselves to watching the second season if they already dissatisfied with the ending of the first though? It's like going back to the same doubles man who gave you food poisoning last time around...

I'm just saying that the series isn't over till it's over, and don't judge the whole thing after only seeing half of it. I myself did not particularly like the ending of the first season, but that's one of the factors that made the whole thing enjoyable overall.

lol, evangelion had the worst endings ever (both of em)

Claymore ending wasn't so bad. Could have been more conclusive but I didn't feel cheated or disturbed.

Clare get on bad.

This is really weird and unlike me but I like it

化物語 - Bakemonogatari - Opening 'flashback' (HD)

Bakemonogatari is formed from "bakemono" and "monogatari", loosely translating it to Monster Stories (Monstories?). Each chapter of the original novels revolves around one heroine with different powers (e.g. vampire, weightless etc.), and each chapter's story plays an important role in the next one. The series primarily focuses on a conversation between characters; it contains a certain amount of parody to other series, media, wordplays and metahumor.

then theres Needless.....kinda messed up too
Needless op HD

I was wondering about that, is FMA B different from the original? I started watching and at first (since memory escapes me sometimes) I thought to myself... these are old episodes... are they? or is it a completely new series compared to the original anime?

Berzerk · « **Reply #50 on:** July 31, 2009, 08:45:09 PM »

the original FMA was excellent imo, someone told me the new one pales in comparison? I havent tried it yet though. Is it worthy?

rb · « **Reply #51 on:** July 31, 2009, 08:50:30 PM »

new one is speeding to get to where the original series and manga went in directions so that they can follow the manga storyline more closely.

Welcome to the N.H.K.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Welcome_to_the_N.H.K.

Man oh man. One great series after another. Just finished watching this one yesterday, and it was instantly added to my "Top 10 Series Ever List". The show revolves around a young man named Tatsuhiro Satō. A 22 year old university dropout who lived the last 4 years of his life as a hikikomori and is also a NEET. I didn't even know those terms were actually used in real life up until a few minutes ago. The show touches on so many topics. Everything from MMO addiction, gold-farming and pyramid schemes, to more serious issues like chronic depression, child abuse and even suicide, all tastefully portrayed and acted. But despite its serious topics, the series has a lot of comedy and even some action thrown in. I'm almost 100% sure that some people on the forum will be able to relate in so way with what these characters a going through. I know I did. Oh, and on a quick side note, the English dub for the series IS superior to the Japanese one (I've listened to both of them objectively and yes, it is better). IMO, it's GITS level voice acting. Chris Patton of Full Metal Panic (Sousuke) and RahXephon (Ayato) fame does an excellent job of portraying Satō. Look up youtube for the dub if you don't believe me. 5 star series all around and a definite recommendation.

Welcome to the NHK Trailer

yeah, the trailer kinda sucks, but the series doesn't so....

jus started this anime Bokurano

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bokurano

Quote

During a summer camp, 15 children, 8 males and 7 females, find a grotto by the sea. Deep within they discover working computers and some electronic equipment, and later the owner, a man who introduces himself as "Kokopelli". Kokopelli claims to be a programmer working on a brand new game, in which a large robot has to defend the Earth against fifteen alien invasions. He persuades the children to test the game and enter into a contract. All but one of them agree, and a moment later they mysteriously awaken on the shore, believing what happened was just a dream

After episode 4 i was positively hooked, this is definitely something different people, its worth a look.

BECK: Mongolian Chop Squad

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BECK:_Mongolian_Chop_Squad

Synopsis: Tanaka Yukio, known as Koyuki, is your typical 14-year old, feeling detached from life and with a liking for J-pop music. One ordinary day, after returning from school, he saves a grotesque dog belonging to aspiring young musician Minami Ryuusuke, who yearns to form a rock band named BECK. From that moment on, Koyuki must undergo a journey through his adolescence and struggle for fame and fortune.

Didn't expect to like this one, seeing as I'm not really a rock fan. But I must admit, it was pretty good. Not for everyone as it IS a drama, but if you're looking for something different, check this one out. Better yet if you're a rocker. But it has a lot, and I mean A LOT OF CUSSIN' in both the subbed and dubbed versions. So kids, look elsewhere.
