Vacamion Posted 3 December 2011 Share Posted 3 December 2011 I know nothing about Anime, but I have noticed that the drawings in this thread look the same style as "Battle of the Planets", which was on when I were a lad. Or am I barking up the wrong bush? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or am I barking up the wrong bush? Sort of. Battle of the Planets was an American adaptation of a Japanese series, they very much borrowed the anime "style."

ithuriel Posted 23 August 2012 Author Share Posted 23 August 2012 Old thread but i'm trying to decide on whether 'Elfen Lied' and 'Wolfs Rain' are worth a fair wedge of my cash. Never really watched either but everyone who has seen it tells me Elfen Lied is amazing?? To get them currently you are talking about £80 minimum for region2 boxed sets.

Reynard Bleu Posted 23 August 2012 Share Posted 23 August 2012 Whenever I'm struggling at the Gym, I think "what would Goku do", and add more weights. Whenever I'm struggling in the gym I think what would Frank Worthington do, then I drop the weights and nip round a mates house,shag his missus then go on a bender down the pub.

Captain... Posted 23 August 2012 Share Posted 23 August 2012 Old thread but i'm trying to decide on whether 'Elfen Lied' and 'Wolfs Rain' are worth a fair wedge of my cash. Never really watched either but everyone who has seen it tells me Elfen Lied is amazing?? To get them currently you are talking about £80 minimum for region2 boxed sets. Do you want to own them, or just watch them? Sure you could download them or subscribe to something like lovefilm or netflix, they currently have a free trial offer, sign up, watch them then you can decide if you want to buy them. Actually it looks like netflix has a limited film catalogue, so that may not work, but I'm sure you could download it. Just searched for Elfin Lied and Wolfs Rain on Lovefilm.co.uk and they are both there, so probably cheaper than £80 and unlimited other films too.

Finnegan Posted 23 August 2012 Share Posted 23 August 2012 Elfen Lied is well worth owning. Absolutely staggeringly good series, one of the best anime dramas. Odd bit of out of place fan service which gives it a mixed reputation but if you can just accept that the very occasional bit of boob grabbing is just a cultural phenomena in Japanese pop culture then you should get on with it.

Fox in the North Posted 24 August 2012 Share Posted 24 August 2012 Death note, one piece aaaaaaand the full metal alchemist series. Though I do prefer the latest one, the fight scenes were pretty epic. FF advent children's fight scenes go without saying of being some of the best that I've ever scene.

Jordan Posted 24 August 2012 Share Posted 24 August 2012 Anyone who categorises Beyblade/Yugi-oh/ or any other card swapping/game anime as awesome or classic loses my respect and 1000 man points. I'm not sure which is worse: insulting someone's manhood because he doesn't like the same types of cartoons as you, or using the phrase, "man points."

ithuriel Posted 25 August 2012 Author Share Posted 25 August 2012 Got the boxed set, Elfin Lied and watched the first four episodes thus far, the series and the set itself is quality and an awesome addition to my collection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ithuriel Posted 26 August 2012 Author Share Posted 26 August 2012 The original director of Evangelion is part way through rereleasing the story in movie format but is also remaking the story to how he actually wanted it to be made since things were not going quite right the first time around. He has also been adding new characters, improved the art and has been ramping up the fight scenes apparently and the fourth movie will end in a totally different fashion to the original series. I have Evangelion 1.11 and have just ordered Evangelion 2.22. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
