[Anime] GFF Anime Club

I'd be more inclined to participate if the shows being nominated weren't things I've already seen. Its almost as if they stopped making good anime when my interest in it dwindled.

Oh wait...

How ya doing, buddy?

I was speaking mostly in jest, but if you must know, I think I stopped keeping up with anime around 2008.
My loss of interest could probably be blamed on the seeming impossibility of anything topping Gurren Lagann.
It was pretty much "Huh, well, I guess that concludes anime."

Most amazing jew boots

The sig isn't too shabby either.

How ya doing, buddy?

I don't see any reason why we have to have some special timing to change shit up. Its unlikely that the participants will suddenly be unable to join in because they didnt plan on an extra hour of anime.

Additionally, keeping it at its current time is already probably straining the schedules of folks on the west coast. Moving it earlier more would probably just reduce participation or frustrate them.

Sorry that I've not been around the past few streaming sessions, but real life takes precedence of course. Gonna catch up through the archives this weekend.

I gotta be honest, I don't have much interest in watching Tylor. I can't quite figure out why that is though. I enjoyed it the first time I watched it. Might be the dubbing, might be the fact that I already saw it, or the graininess of the image, but whatever it is, I just don't feel too bothered if I miss it.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Yes, but its subscription based. You have to send a $50 check to Acer, and he'll give you three month's access to the stream.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Galaxy Angels.
All of it.

FELIPE NO

All of those look like pretty great options.
My only preference is against Haibane Renmei. It is an absolutely fantastic work and everyone and their mother should watch it; but I've already seen it before.
However, if anyone else votes for it, you'll hear no complaints from me.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Get in the stream, faggots.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

This just means West-coasters have no excuse.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

So I was thinking perhaps we could take a bit of a breather from extended or multi-season series, and delve into some of the more obscure and one-off anime shows or movies. I'm thinking stuff like what Studio 4°C, Robot, or Grasshoppa! churn out.
I have a few specific suggestions (and can provide content if necessary).

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

We await your triumphal return.

I suppose Thursday is right out, too?

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

So I have a few more ideas for new shows to play.

For the drama/interesting slot:
- Ergo Proxy
- Jigoku Shoujou
- Elfen Leid
- Texhnolyze (though I'm not sure how well this will fare. the pacing can get quite slow at times)
- Gankutsuou
- Last Exile
- Dennou Coil

Fun/stupid shows:
- Minami-ke
- Ouran High School Host Club (twincest!)
- Manabi Straight
- Sumomomo Momomo (never did finish watching this)
- Ichigo Mashimaro

I was speaking idiomatically.

Hey, its cool. Just tossing some suggestions out there. Take what you like and run with it. A few things though:

I felt that each season of JiJou could easily withstand the absence of any latter seasons. So just playing season 1 (which is actually 26 eps) could suffice. Of course there are the obligatory unanswered questions that they don't get into to justify later seasons, but I never felt like they were big enough to ruin the series. I might be recollecting it wrong though. Its been many years, and I was unaware they even ran a third season.

Fair enough on Texhnolyze. The more I think about it, the more I feel its probably not best for the anime club audience (all 4 of us).

I threw Gankutsuou out there just because I have not seen it yet, but I'd heard great things about it. If other participants have seen it though, I'll watch it on my own time (lol yeah right).

I'll defer to your judgment on the comedy shows. Again, just tossing a bunch of names out there off the top of my head.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Also twincest.

Never forget the twincest.

How ya doing, buddy?
