Anime stuff and Manga if you want :)

Watched Bleach a fair bit a fair few years ago, Kenpachi and his Lt. were fave characters.

From what I remember, I think this guy did a Dr Who  anime short.

 

[ithuriel]

Death Parade,   got this on disc too,  a nice little show about  arbiters who decide on the fates of those souls sent to them to be judged, the void or another chance at life, the final couple of episodes were quite emotive.

erm....well..........hmm........

Chiyuki's story certainly hit hard.

Strangely I've heard of it, seen clips etc., but have yet to get around to watching it.

Dusk maiden of Amnesia is a bit of a strange anime, another short show that is a light hearted ghostly comedic episodic pass the time thing until ep.7 then it goes very dark.

Requiem, the song from the final episode....

Cyber City 808

Remember watching this late on CH4 back in the day.

Animation looks dated but the stories were decent and the profanity splattered all over 

 

[ithuriel]

This anime was so bad that apparently when it was sold to America they were allowed to dub it anyway they wanted, so they just did, funniest official dubbing ever

Elfen Lied,....messed up in so many ways but also with some laugh out load moments and a surprisingly bitter sweet open ending.

 

Funny enough Elfen Lied was the 1st anime i ever watched and is still one of my favourites.

Did they lose their license or just shut up shop?

Most of the anime I have is on disc from a decade plus of collecting, also watch a few shows on Youtube.

Kinda miss the anime conventions that used to take place annually in Leicester before Covid at Leicester university during the summer. though I think their website is still around as they do conventions elsewhere. AnimeLeague I think it is called.

Was interesting as one year they had the female head of a high ranking Japanese house there helping to raise funds for the Earthquake that hit that year, she was dressed in full kimono etc.,  and held a class talking about cultural differences between Japan, the USA and the UK plus she taught those present a few sentences in Japanese.

Higurashi, an old anime series, strangely cutesy animation for a very dark show, a curse, madness, time looping, torture and death.

Nice themes though...

and an English version of the second theme

 

[ithuriel]

Black Lagoon,  a story of pirates, mercs, bounty hunters etc., all in one place.

A mix of all the different versions of Evangelions Decisive Battle theme....

 

[ithuriel]

Got The Boy and the Heron on Bluray, not the best of Ghibli but it has it's charm and a stellar voice cast.

Have a fair few Ghibli movies, not all but enough.

Chillin' in Another World with Level 2 Super Cheat Powers is a good new anime I watched recently, a pretty wholesome comedy

 

Somebody has actually uploaded the entire series to YouTube as well, linked below

Nope, think the last game I played was a Yu gi oh battle deck game  and that was a fair few years ago

If there's a video on YouTube only showing the story, reckon you'd love it. Some of their best work.

Attack on Titan has finally ended, Evangelion has also wrapped up and Demon Slayer should be heading there, can see them maybe spreading out the final arc into a couple seasons at least, with the Hashira and the upper demons battling it out to the death, Shinobu certainly goes out like a boss in the manga in her lone hopeless battle against upper moon 2, her theme is pretty cool too.

These guys doing a reaction to the season 4 finale.
