Hey, I'm very sorry not answering you until now. I was kind of lost in life.
Thanks for your feedback on my review. I loved the manga so much. It's so sad that the anime turned out to be super low budget.
Sure, I would love to chat if you are still interested.
Church scene Initially I meant the scene where they say their vows. "Together shall we be, henceforth till the end of Eternity" but as I read you reply I remember the other scene too. Romeo wondering outloud like he was talking to Juliet whether she would like Roses and then Juliet replies from behind about Irisis right? And then they run towards each other and kiss as the wind blew around them with Irisis surrounding them. such a beautiful scene. SO, yes! both is the answer
Yes! Iris instead or Roses or Tulips or any other popular flower. It's Iris that symbolises their love. This is why I love this anime so much. Made me believe that Love at first sight does exist for these two. only the anime Romeo and Juliet not the book ones. These two are too precious for the unfair world they live in.
Oh yea. Your fav VA right?
Yea I wonder what will happen next in Franxx. I really hope none of our group dies... I really do...
Gaang yep. That's what AO3 calls them all. It's a popular tag.
Ha ha that's ok. BakuDeku is famous and I do hope they become actual friends in the future but not at the expense of Izuku. Izuku deserves better.
Ha ha yea. I haven't given up yet. We'll see. I'll tell you if I find that magical anime. Does your family watch anime with you?
Why bait us with scenes throughout the MCU and then separate them in such a harsh way and breaking our Ship to pieces. They sunk the Romanogers ship like the Titanic.
Awww well lot's of comments and messages from me today(*^-^*) (⁄ ⁄>⁄ ▽ ⁄<⁄ ⁄)
Mmhmm I love that VN so much and it's free!! How is it so good and free. Ohh yea even I usually love to read multiple romance paths. Interesting to see how each characters changes our story and how our MC impacts them but something about our choices mattering and shaping our MC's relationship with this new boy is also a neat concept. All the characters (supporting ) are also so well written.
Cool! So pokemon and digimon it is then. They are my longest ones and then Inuyasha. Yea I am really liking the 12-13 ones too. Especially those whose stories are completed in one season and then I start to crave for more. ha ha
Hmm Naruto huh. I tried watching it... but didn't like it... it wasn't engaging to me and It's not because of Naruto himself but that anime is just something that pulled me in and made me want to see more.
Ohh so you never finished it. right! it's kinda boring right?? I didn't even finish more than 10 eps
That's the understatement. Oh man I am having fun but am also tired. I just hope everything goes well this visit from my cousins. Last time we saw each other things didn't go so well.
I see that you are almost finished with RomeoXJuliet. You saw the Church scene right? Isn't it truly beautiful. It's one of my all time favourite scenes in an anime. So beautiful and they look so happy and their words show how much they love each other. And Irisis being shown again and again in key moments between Romeo and Juliet is just the perfect touch.
Are you watching it in Dub or Sub? I forgot.
Watching Classic shows and remembering why we love Anime in the first place is such a good feeling. I had this when Yashahime first came out. I more or less rewatched all Inuyasha eps after finishing the 1st season of Yashahime. That feeling of happiness and nostalgia is really something isn't it?
Btw finally watched another ep of Franxx. It's nice how nothing is boring and the main story along with the team bonding moments even if it is *ahem* puberty is shown in this anime. Zero Two is a normal girl too and the boys realising how much they want to protect the girls made me smile and then of course Miku found the former squad 13.
I feel like Zero Two knows a lot about what's really going on with this squad. They are different from other squads and it's for a reason isn't it? A new experiment by these people who are in charge.
Reminds me of Maze Runner.
I don't know if I will ever end up watching Digimon again but I do wanna rewatch Digimon Frontier if I can find the time.
YES!!! Then you can add Avatar to your watchlist too. Trust me with this. Avatar is heavily inspired by Animes and the Gaang are truly one of the best ever!! Yes it's Gaang because the Avatar's name is Aang ha ha. You will love everyone and I am curious as to who you will like most.
Finished Season 1 and started Season 2. Todoroki is appearing a lot more in this season so far. Love Izuku and his two friends. Bakugo not a fan but better than the 1st season.BakuDeku scarred me. I will never google My Hero Academia fanart so casually again. How can anyone ship these two!!! HOW!!! I can't see it. I can't see how anyone could ship these two. Maybe Bakugo is better in later seasons. I don't know! I feel like it's unhealthy for Izuku to end up with his Bully in this way where Bakugo shows no remorse for all the bullying he has done.
If I have to ship Izuku with anyone I would ship him with his friend Ochaka and maybe Todoroki because I can feel some bonding between these two in Season 2 especially with Todoroki's dad making an appearance. Mostly I just want to see why this anime is so popular, read some good fanfics where everyone is a team and a found family and maybe ship Izuku when he is a little older and be careful of shipping fanart. Most of them are cute and some...well....
Anime is maybe not his Cup of tea. We'll see. I am not giving up yet!
A son for a son better age up well with all the drama it deserves after making Neytiri's character go in that direction
Tai and Sora for Life! I am still in denial over the canon pairing and I will always stay in this denial.
I think the MCU purposely did that knowing the Fans wanted it, I remember it being a big thing back then.
That's nice. I am looking forward to hearing more about it. I wanna stay near my parents too when I move out.
Huntik is about people who can summons Titans from Amulets. Good Vs Evil, a mystery, a team of 4 heroes who meet because of fate, who slowly grow stronger together and come to care for one another, two couples, Amazing action, great story.
I try to stay more active through Messages if I can't reply here!
Aww... Thanks for waiting. I love our Convos!
Btw have you ever heard of a VN called Our life. It's awesome and free. Please check it out! You'll love it https://gbpatch.itch.io/our-life
Longest huh probably Pokemon, Inuyasha and All the Digimon... Do Pokemon and Digimon count?
Yes! But I mostly just prefer shorter ones now. Max 26 eps in one season. What about you?
Another late reply... I don't know how I am so busy in both Jan and Feb. First exams, then festivals and now I have relatives over and in a few days I will have more relatives over. So yep this whole month completely no alone time and a full house and everytime I try to watch a 20 min or 30 min something (*cough* Franxx *cough*) one of my parents or relatives are calling me or something else happens and there goes my 12th attempt of watching EP 8. Though I am having lots of fun, I also want to watch the Kdramas, Tv shows and Anime I have been looking forward before I got to study seriously again. How's Romeo X Juliet progressing for you?
Yep exactly! Relaxation, bonding moments, Character progression, the characters from the anime becoming more real and human that makes us feel for them.
I really like every single one of the group. They all feel different from each other and have their own personality, opinions and how they are reacting to everything around them is really interesting to see.
Digimon frontier was my fav back when it was airing in Cartoon Network. I used to love watching that show and also Digimon Data Squad. Hey have you watched the Remake of the original Digimon? I want to see it but I am a little skeptical on if it will really capture the magic of the original series.
Mmhmm I usually don't interact much online with strangers except for in AO3 but that's also because I comment on every story I read about what I like about it but other than that Youtube comments make me not chat with people much but MAL is seriously one of the nicest Communities I ever had the pleasure of being a part of and am so glad I got to interact with people like you who not only respect my opinions about something but also share their opinions in non-aggressive way and also we get to just have fun chatting like this about this world of anime we really like ^_^
Yep let's see what the next event is gonna be like and participate in it if we can. I know Avatar Last Airbender has all 3 seasons in Netflix but I don't know whether it's in your area or not. Do you have VPN? It's 20 eps each. I like Avatar more than My Hero Academia. I don't get what the hype is but the ending episodes are definitely more fun than the beginning and I do like Izuku as the MC. Though I don't like Bakugou that much.... I know he has a lot of fans but I don't see the appeal and man there are so many BakuDeku ship fanfics in AO3 that I am like "Nope!"
I do like Izuku's two friends and also Todoroki (I think that's his name. The hald fire, half ice kid) and also I am looking forward to seeing the Mentor-Mentee relationship between Almight and Izuku!
All in all It got better by the end the season 1 and season 2 so far is not boring at all. Still don't like Bakugou....
Aww thank you. Yea I am pretty close with both my parents and me being an only child definitely is a factor. What about you? Are you an only child or do you have siblings?
That's nice! Harry Potter and MCU are movies to watch together as a family. I get what you mean I am trying to get my dad into Anime and Kdrama but not working so far. I tried making him watch Bungou Stray Dogs and he said he doesn't find it boring and it feels like it isn't something he will come to enjoy. It's entertaining to see how he just calls the characters with their powers instead of their names. Atsushi the main character is the "Tiger boy" ha ha. We dropped watching it and started Avatar Last Airbender and season 1 is done and Season 2 is midway. I am glad we are atleast finishing this one at a steady pace. I hope to finish all 3 seasons by the time more of my relatives come.
Yea the Whale Hunters are both something I like and dislike in the movie. It's weird how I feel both when I watched them on screen. Makes for a good conflict but is unoriginal because it's the equivalent of the Human's greed for the Unobtainium in Avatar 1. I wished they showed the Humans needing the whales for their survival in some way and not the greed part again coming into play but usually the greed does come into play. So yea especially the part where it extends people's lives makes for a good motive.
Unobtainium is important because it makes them space travel I think and that's why it's very costly too. i remember Selfridge telling about Unobtainium to Jake.
Either way they better make it pay off. I want some conflict with Spider, Neytiri and her children (who are Spider's best friends and also Jake kind of adopted Spider as his own from the way we saw him hug Spider at the end. Before that I don't think even Jake saw Spider as his kid). Yea only time will tell.
Hmm I am ok with Kiri and I am looking forward to seeing her connection with Eywa and Grace. I do love that scene with her and Jake. Jake calling her baby girl was so sweet but I do get how her whole character is just her being a child of Grace and her connection with Eywa and also that she has a bond with Spider.
IKR!!! How could they do that to us!! Sora ends up with Matt! Matt!!! How?? WHY!! Tai even helps them get together! What the hell!!! It's like watching Romanogers ship sink all over again after Winter Soldier.... I still craved for their scenes together all throughout MCU after Winter Soldier like that scene in Civil War where Nat says that she came because she didn't want Steve to be alone. My Romanogers heart...
Tai and Sora belong together!!! I love how they bicker and what about the movie where Tai writes Love Tai instead of From Tai. Isn't that what happens in the movie??
Wow for the past few years huh. I bet you are both nervous and excited about it. I look forward to those updates. Will you be moving to some place else? I mean another city or something like that?
Btw have you ever watched Huntik? I just got a nostalgia blast when I found this
Well I am curious as to what theme and look you will make your profile! Will you keep your intro as the same? Just click on About me design. There are some amazing designs to choose from.
Thanks for saying that. It's just that I know what it's like to look forward to a reply from a friend online or not and not get it soon so I just want to say why I couldn't message as frequently we I would have liked to.
Alright I won't apologise but I will probably still message you if I don't reply to Our convo for more than 2 days or so. I am happy and having fun. That's so sweet. I feel so happy you said that.
Ep 7 is a beach episode ha ha. What do you think about Beach eps in Anime. I love in most of the anime I watched because it gives our mcs some much needed fun and rest and bonding moments and us a lot of content which is just fun without worrying about the plot if done right.
This ep is really nice and I love how they found the remnants of the civilisation that was once there. When Kokoro found the motherhood book, I realised how they probably have no knowledge about the normals things we know. Like how humans were all once babies born to parents and then they grow slowly and become adults.
They keep talking about becoming adults and I worry everytime they say that. I feel like there is catch to them being able to use those machines to fight monsters. Maybe they fight these things with their life force or something.I wish they will all have a happy ending. I feel like the real plot is only starting now.
All those kids are really growing on me. They strangely give me Digimon Frontier vibes. Have you seen Digimon Frontier?
Yep I got my first badge! I have been meaning to get one but usually all the events need us to do a certain task and I don't get to concentrate on it as much as I want to so I wanted to take part in an event both enjoyable and doable by me. That's why I chose Secret Santa one when I read about it and it's also great way to meet new friends and share anime and talk about things we like. I found someone to talk to who loves MDZS as much as I do. Though I don't talk with them as frequently I do with you, it's still fun.
Let's see if the next event is as fun as the Secret Santa one. I wonder when the next event will be. Mostly probably on Feb 14 right? I don't know much about MAL events and when they take place.
You haven't seen Avatar Last Airbender!!! What!!! How did you miss Avatar?? It's art style is heavily inspired by anime and it's such a good adventure story. I highly recommend it!! It isn't listed on MAL? I didn't know that.
Yea my dad is kinda my Movies/Tv shows buddy. We watched so many movies and tv shows together. We have our own things like he doesn't watch anime and I don't watch some of the tv shows he does but all in all we watch a lot of things together.
He is the one who introduced me to Terminator, Star Wars, Jurassic Park and Harry Potter. Even Spiderman was something he knew I would enjoy and made me watch on Star Movies. Home Alone is a classin for us and we watch it together every Dec. We are now watching all the MCU movies. Watching Phase 1 currently . Finished Iron Man 1 yesterday and now onto Iron Man 2.
Mom is not a movie fan. She prefers nature walks and is a social butterfly and I am not ha ha. We usually cook together and watch Kdramas ( I manged to make her a Kdrama fan)
What about you?
I felt like the Humans were better in this movie than part 1. in part 1 Humans came to Pandora for obtaining a rare mineral called unobtainium which is not necessary for Human survival but it's because it's expensive and it fuels space travel. In part 2 Humans are on Pandora because they need Pandora for survival of the species.
All Navi are awesome in both parts but humans only fought to obtain a mineral not that necessary whereas in Part 2 they started fighting for the survival of the species. Another thing we get to see Spider and Quartich be humans and create a parent-child bond (he isn't just some villain who shoots down the locals). He is person, he had bonds and he still does. It's too bad he is in his avatar form and not human anymore. i can guess why they did that, the actor is 70 yrs. Makes sense to make a avatar for him.
The lines actually blurred when Neytiri threatened the Villain by using his child whereas Quartich didn't really hurt the kids in the movie. Yes he also threatened our heroes but he is the villain.
The Navi are also Human. That's what I got from this movie. Then again I did feel conflicted in Avatar 1 too and didn't really like watching all the humans get killed.
My mom liked the family aspect and the new characters too. She was so not happy that Neteyam was killed. She completely lost interest in the movie after that.
Tsireya right! She was awesome right? Not a Neytiri 2.0 like I feared. I love how the water Navi look different than the forest ones. Also some of the kids getting Jake's eyebrows and 5 fingers is such an interesting detail. Some of the Navi will now have 5 fingers and eyebrows if the children ever have children and they got it from their parents.
I do hope more involvement of good humans will be there in Avatar 2. You were right in that aspect. Good humans were clearly shown on the Navi's side but calling the antagonists of Avatar 1 bad... felt a little like a bitter pill to swallow. Did I make sense?
I hope we get all the kids equally in the next part. I would love to see some scenes of the youngest one too. Again forgot her name. Btw what do you think of Kiri? Grace's avatar being pregnant with Kiri, that plotline?
Yes! All of Pandora fighting as one. such an epic feeling! Especially when Neytiri yells in excitement how Eywa heard Jake! Wow!
I used to play with Beyblades a lot. Bought at least 6 different ones. I used to love spinning them. Me and my cousin tried to even battle with them.
I love how Digimon has a story continuity and doesn't get as repitive as Pokemon with the MC being a 10 Year Old Ash all the time! I stopped watching after the Sinnoh league.
My last Digimon for Digimon Data Squad. I heard of Tri but I haven't seen it. I need to catch up on so much Digimon content. The only anime I was interested was Tri but when I heard Sora and Tai won't end up together I was so upset that I kinda...well dropped it without even trying one ep. It was 5 years ago I think.... I don't remember.
Today is India's Republic Day. We were all celebrating hence the late reply. A mini vacation. National Holiday.
YOI and SK8 same studios.
I am still living with my parents myself. We tend to do that till we start a job and then we move out or we even wait till we get married here. ha ha depends on a person but that's mostly the case especially in Southern India.
So cool that you have been saving up and now can get your own place! I would love to hear about what you are picturing as your own home.
Ooo that'd be cool. A revamp. Me too I gotta finish Franxx too but spending time with Fam so haven't turned on the laptop as much as I usually do.
Sorry for the late reply...
Aww I missed talking to you too. Happy to be back! Hey did you notice my new badge in my profile? cute right?
I have two new friends now. My secret Santa and the one I was the Secret Santa to.
Btw I have been re watching Avatar Last Airbender with my dad (who is watching for the first time). Have you watched Avatar Last Airbender?
hmm then I can watch it with my family, Christmas Chronicles I mean. For me, It's just been hard to find good Christmas movies these days.
Me too. I hoped the Kids would get proper character development and spotlight without sidelining Jake and Neytiri and James Cameron more or less actually succeeded in doing that. What a pleasant surprise. I am so used to being disappointed by movies these days especially sequels to well beloved sagas and stand alone movies. Avatar 2 was almost perfect and with better writing it could have been better than Avatar 1.... too bad They were more concentrated on showing Pandora and not more on the flow of the story.
Still, I did have fun and I am so glad you did too! Who did you go with? Did they have fun too? My parents and I watched the movie....and let's just say I was the only one enjoying it, My dad was enjoying some parts of it and was neutral to the others and my mom straight on got bored of it.
Neteyam was my favourite too ╥﹏╥ He deserved a better ending....All the kids were great, even Spider. It was also refreshing to see the Water tribe's princess? I forgot her name. Loak's LI not be a Neytiri 2.0
Neteyam actually reminded me of Dick Grayson from Batfam. I tend to love these type of characters and grow really attached.
Exactly!!! Loak and Jake never got to have a proper fleshed out conversation!! I wish they will in the next part. They need it! Especially now.
Neytiri has always been aggressive and warrior type but not like this.... if she was like in this movie from the start, she would have been like Tsutey in a way and not trust Jake in any way.
Yea.... the decade doesn't show in the movie... it feels instead a little rushed and clumsy but overall a 7 out of 10 for me. Hope the next one will have a better script and story flow.
The plot points aren't the weakness of this movie but how they get to it needs some work and also I wish it didn't feel so isolated. In the first part it's was Eywa heard Jake and everyone united, even the creatures to fight back but in this one... it just feels so isolated. not necessarily bad or wrong in any way but wish it was better told and shown.
Loak and the Tulkun is really one of the best parts of the movie right??? I loved those scenes so so much!! The ocean really did feel alive, just like the forest in the previous movie.
Aliens first! Please I wanna know your reaction to that movie. I'll recommend the ones I like, if you want to watch them in both Aliens and Predators though there are not that many good ones in so many movies...
Yea I was a teenager too when I first started watching anime if you don't count Pokemon, Digimon and Beyblade. Which did you like more? Pokemon? Digimon? or Beyblade?
Yea.... Miroku gets an episode but Sango just appears in the last fight mostly. I'll share some clips if I find them. Hisui is actually good character with good potential... which is again mostly wasted.
Most focus is I guess on Riku. Riku is a fun character so I can't complain much.
When I was first watching Inuyasha I used to be so worried about Kohaku's fate. I feel so glad and happy to see him all grown up.
2023 huh... I guess I want to finish my studies If i can and I want to increase my health through exercise and all that... nothing much apart from that. Anime wise. I just wish we get some news on Yuri On Ice movie. The Fans have been waiting for 6 years or more and I am really looking forward to the 2nd season of SK8.
You?
I am back!!!! I have never seen Christmas Chronicles.Is it a classic? one of your favs? I'll add it to my watchlist. Home Alone is one of the best movies that I'll never ever get bored no matter how many times I watch it. it's too much fun!
Why did they kill Neteyam!!! Why!!! How could they!!! I get that Loak and Kiri and also Spider are basically the main characters but how could they just kill Neteyam like that..... they should have at least waited till the next movie. Bad storytelling. It's like Killing Superman off in the movie he is first shown in or something along those lines. When they killed off Superman in BVS I was this disappointed with that movie too..... I could see it coming from a mile away and Neteyam's death was expected for the character growth of Loak.
But that's hypocritical of Neytiri. Isn't Jake one of those 'sky people' she hates?? What about Grace?? Hmm?? Spider is just a kid. She shouldn't have done that. I wouldn't be surprised if it comes to bite them in the butt when they least expect it. For now I am surprised Spider came back to them.
Exactly!!!!Them leaving would make the Omaticaya more vulnerable!!!! So many story loopholes that could be solved they paid a lil more attention to the script!
I wonder what Avatar 3 will be about. Air? Earth? Ooo Fire?? Ha ha maybe it can be named the Stigma of the Wind or something along those lines.
The best part of the movie for me is when the Kids were learning and exploring the Way of Water. Beautiful scenes. Very soothing in the way water tends to be.
More than Predator 2 I recommend Aliens (which is the part 2 of Alien). And if you can check out the Alien Isolation game. One of the best experiences I got to see.
T2 really set the standard sky high. But even back then I know not every movie is T2 and should not be compared in such a way. Some of my favorite non animation movies back then were Dunston checks in, Home Alone, Baby's Day Out.
I wonder why so many stuff are based on High Schoolers and High School setting but the High Schoolers don't really behave like High Schoolers or are acted by actors in their early to mid twenties. Why is it so popular??
Isn't it Levi on most of the the Ost's cover art?
Sango and Miroku are so sidelined in this anime. They have no part in it honestly... but Hisui is a good character. I just wish they made him a part of the new gang too but he's more of an recurring ally character and that's more than ok but Hisui is more interesting than Towa and therein lies the problem. Riku is great. Rion is an interesting character too. Such potential for all the new characters and the old ones.... look at this
Speaking of Yashahime. Kohaku is great in this you know? his character really feels like he has grown well and strong.
Well Inuyasha's mangaka Rumiko Takahashi did not write this anime and it shows. it's anime original and now Rumiko Takahashi started Yashahime Manga.
Yea DAI customization for Hawke are lack luster. Doesn't exactly look right like our Hawke from DA 2. At least the VA is the same.
Here's hoping 2023 is a good year for all of us!
明けましておめでとう!!!
𝒜𝓀𝑒𝓂𝒶𝓈𝒽𝒾𝓉𝑒 𝒪𝓂𝑒𝒹𝑒𝓉𝑜𝓊 ! ! !
________________________________________________ Hisashiburi desu ne. Hope you been doing well John-senpai !
I do missed those time when we used to have long random discussion 'bout anime & watching your romance recommendations hehe. How long has it been? 2 years? wow.
Wish you lots of success & happiness to come 2023!
(。・ω・。)
hey no need to say sorry. How did you celebrate? Yea my time off was well spent by studying for my exams. They start on 5th Jan. Though I did take a break because my dad got a holiday that day. So we watched some christmas movies. Especially Home Alone 1 and 2. What is your favourite Christmas Movie? Mine are definitely Home Alone 1 and 2. We watch it every Christmas.
The script is the weakest point right? Though I did like the characters. Loak, Kiri, Spider had more screen time than the other kids but I really liked Neteyam too. I wish we got to see more of him before they killed him off... but man Neytiri really scared me in a good way of course. That expression she had when Jake tells her he needs her to stay strong because they need to save their daughters is just wow. That transformation was awesome. When she threatened Quartich "A son for a son" I really could feel the tension. I am glad Quartich cares for Spider. I liked those scenes and I wish we got more of them. Do you think Neytiri would have killed Spider if Quartich didn't let go of Kiri or if he was more ruthless?
At the end when Jake says a Father protects while hugging Spider and Loak. Oh man...
I just wish they strengthened the pacing of the story and the loopholes. Like leaving the Omaticaya didn't make sense. What if the Humans hunted them when they were vulnerable without Jake and Neytiri?? What if They needed Jake's knowledge of the humans to fight effectively? What if the Humans tortured them for information?? All those things kept going in my head as the movie went on. I was waiting for a scene where they show how the Omaticaya got hurt or how they were doing.
Oh Yes ofcourse how could I forget Spiderman 2. it too is better than Spidey 1 in most ways yet relatable even though we are not superheroes like Peter, an amazing villain and yes the Train scene is one of the most memorable scenes in cinema history. What do you think about Predator and the Alien movies?? Do you like them? You know Terminator 2 is one of my favourite movies and one of the first English movies I have watched as a kid which is not Disney.
Yayyy I am glad you are interested in Balance Unlimited!!! I am looking forward to your reactions! Yea Higashi no eden seems good. I watched ep 1 a few months ago but it has been on hold. I do wanna watch it! It gave me some Balance Unlimited vibes. not exactly but some more than that it reminded me of Bourne Identity.
Yea for some anime when we start it we may not like it or prefer it because it's just not the right time or age or mood. I don't know when I will watch Higashi no eden because I gotta watch it from scratch but before that gotta binge watch Franxx!!! My exams are till 12 or 13th I don't remember. I just gotta hang tight till then.
No ship name?? for Gale and Katniss?? What!!! Can't they atleast name them something like Kale.... wait isn't Kale a plant's name?? Nope they have one. I just googled it it's *drumroll* "Everthorne". Nice ring to it huh?
Everlark and Everthorne. You know Everlark sounds like a golden ebony coloured bird and Everthorne like a sliver plant with thorns which will look beautiful in winter.
ohhh so AOT wan't MAPPA?? Yea I heard about Eren. I also heard of a character called Levi? I think. Heard he is pretty popular. Never heard of Armin. Who did Season 1 of AOT? Not WIT or MAPPA? Btw have you ever watched Castlevania? What are your thoughts on it? It looks so interesting!!! Youtube recommended me that and also Justwatch. I saw the trailer. it gives anime vibes but I don't think it's Japanese.
YES!!! Kazuma was not your typical shounen protagonist right??? He was so self aware and cool. I guess Ayano took on that typical Shounen MC troupes. Which led to her character to grow and change as the story went on. Ren is just perfect!
Were you a Inuyasha fan or Sesshomaru fan?? Kagome or Kikyou?? I think you said Kagome right?
What was your opinion on SessRin ship?
If you won't watch Yashahime watch this too:- The ending of Yashahime 2
There is a sweet moment of Sesshomaru just holding his daughters faces as they were unconscious due to a fight. I can't find it!!! That's the closest to a hug we got in Yashahime. So see this instead. I adore their father-daughter bond so much. 1. 2. 3.
I am glad we got as many InuKagMoroha family moments as we got. Here's another one:- just look at Moroha!!! So precious!!! and this one
I really shared a lot of links haven't I... Oops! (⁄ ⁄^⁄ᗨ⁄^⁄ ⁄)
It'd be so cool if the show was just Moroha going on adventures with her parents, with Miroku's and Sango's kids, with her cousins, Shippo. I would love a show like that too.
That's the biggest drawback of this show no consistency in the powers these girls have. the only proper growth of powers was given to Setsuna. the other two. so disappointed. Moroha is so strong yet completely nerfed and finally when we get to see her show why she is Inunotaisho's granddaughter and how strong she already is, it is never addressed again!!!
Towa is OP all the time but so dumbed down!!!
Setsuna is the only consistent character they managed to write. Not OP but not made into a clown in her own show.
I feel like a comic character can be an MC of a show but should be shown the respect and dedication to their story and character arc without making them the butt of all jokes for no reason!
Fans were so annoyed by the middle of Season 1. They started hating Towa too for making her just this weak OP character. At first I really liked Towa but soon she started to become a pain to watch onscreen and Moroha is really the saving grace of the anime yet seeing the way she was treated was painful to watch too.
Most of the viewers love Moroha for a reason and it's not just because of Inuyasha and Kagome. Moroha herself is such a great character and gets along so well with everyone and is so sharp and intelligent and is so loyal and strong. She thinks on her feet, knows so much of the world around her, shown as hard working. How can you not like her!!! So I wished the studio did something about it after they got the response from the viewers. And with that I will end my already long rant. Ha ha (´∀`;)
What?? The game didn't let you redesign them?? I remember customizing Hawke.... I don't remember what World state I had.... was it default or not...
Another year passed so quickly... How was 2022 for you? It was alright for me. Not as good as I hope but not too bad either.
Hey.. We are hearing a lot of news about Covid here once again. Not active cases but people are getting scared again. What's the situation there?
Also do you celebrate Christmas? If you do, Merry Christmas. Some do here in India but not most of us. Though we all do get a holiday so it's kinda a mini festival/day off for everyone.
Seen Avatar yet? I saw Avatar 1 two times. Though never got to experience it in IMAX 3D. We don't have one here. Otherwise yea it was incredible. It's like going into a whole new world and the script isn't too complex or weak to bug you out from the world you are experiencing.
That's why I have so many mixed feelings with this movie. They did some things a lot of justice and some things are a disaster which didn't have to be one. Then again I am looking forward to hearing your thoughts on this movie.
Are you the type of person who can ignore the strength of a script(bad writing) to enjoy the rest of the movie or even though the rest of the movie is bad because it has a good story you can like it? For me I think I give more weight to the story but not too much. As long as it doesn't have too many loopholes I wouldn't mind switching off the logical side of my brain at times to enjoy the scene the story wanted to get to.
It's too bad though, Terminator 2 and Aliens were such fantastic sequels both expanding the world the first part showed and the characters and their journey all the while introducing the children characters in such an effective way and strengthening Ripley and Sarah Conner.
Also the Antagonist is also so well done. The Terminator and The Alien are still a major threat that may not take our leading ladies by surprise but are still a threat which they got to prepare to face properly and save their kid.
Yea as soon as my exams are done I'll resume watching it and i will msg you about it.
Balance Unlimited really took me by surprise. I just started it very randomly. It's not something I usually watch. I don't remember why/how I was intrigued by it enough to start it but now I really like that genre so looking for any such anime out there. I wanna watch Higashi no Eden because it kinda feels like it belongs in that type of world you know? Have you seen it?
Yep that's what I thought. You like the OP. I like the OP more than ED but I really like the ED too. I love singing both so much while butchering the Japanese parts in the ED ha ha.
Hey this is random but have you ever heard or seen a Kdrama called "Goblin"?
Thank you ♡^▽^♡
Let's continue to talk about ships we do ship together and those we don't as well.
That's a good word:- Earned Romance. It's so much more romantic than a love at first sight. They grow to love each other because of all the relationship they build together.
Awww I am so happy Everlark is growing on you. (o´▽`o) I just adore when Katniss addresses Peeta as 'her boy with bread'
IS there any such nickname for Gale and Katniss? I know Gale calls her Katnip. That's honestly so cute.
Mikasa is one of the Main Characters right? I don't watch any AMVs for AOT for that very reason and definitely avoid the comment section no matter how tempting to read people's thoughts on the songs and themes. To avoid spoilers. Also AOT is Mappa right?? Mappa seriously such amazing Animes!
Yea at least we have one season of KNS. So Ayano or Kazuma or Ren?? Who is your favourite? Is it Kazuma?? For me it was Kazuma though it was very close with the other two. I really love Ren and Ayano too. Ayano changed so well in the anime, gone are her ideas about pride and Kannagi name at the cost of her life because of Kazuma. Ren has always been balanced. It broke my heart when he had to lose Ayumi just like his brother had to lose Tsui Ling.
I wish there was more of Kazuma and Ren interacting. Something that hinted at Tsui Ling back then. Or was there? I don't remember now.
Inuyasha Dub is one of the best and it's sequels is just alright. Well I was surprised to get a Dub in the first place but I prefer the Sub over Dub for this one. Just look at this scene!!! She is a perfect mix of them isn't she! She even sits like her dad, so cute. Also that music! Kagome's theme playing in the background.
Moroha's character is so much more interesting than the twins. A person born from a Human with Spiritual powers and a Half Demon whose father is a Daiyoukai. She is probably the only person who can use both Spiritual energy and Demonic Energy and they ended up severely under utilizing her and nerfing her powers. Heck Kagome and Inuyasha combined their powers more than Moroha even thinking of using both powers as one power or something along those lines. Have you seen this scene? It's adorable how Moroha is sleeping on her dad's back and look at Inuyasha talking to his nieces. I feel like all three girls will have a great bond with both Inuyasha and Kagome.
Oh and Did you watch the final battle in Season 1? It's a really good watch. They actually did justice, not only to Moroha but also Towa in this one battle. Just look at this scene and tell me can anyone expect anything less than an epic anime out of watching this one scene alone. And that howl when Toga appeared behind Moroha
Never brought this up again in any of the scenes how Moroha and InunoTaisho are connected in some way. Even Myoga was talking about how much more similar Moroha's blood tasted in comparison to her grandfather's and we get nothing from it! Nothing!! UGH!!! Such a waste. and look at Towa. Looks like Sesshomaru and his mother right??? How did they not use this magnificence in season 2??? How!!! UGH!!!!
You met Hawke??? Awesome isnt' it! I know there is a quest with them so we know it's possible to make Hawke in the model we created them to be.So it's possible to have our MCs in DA 4. I really hope we get to have all 3 of them in DA 4. I really do, it's to that scale. The Antagonist of this game threatens all of Thedas like in DA 3.
No, there is a new Lead character for DA 4. It's spoilerish territory. So I won't say much or show you the trailer. They are from Tevinter and it's specifically mentioned that they have no magic hand. So not the Inquisitor.
I am glad you think so. I spent a lot of time on it. I hope they like those suggestions. I am so looking forward to the gift I will get too. I will let you know what suggestions I got.
Honestly for Avatar 2 the whole movie is 'good'. You 'will' have fun. You won't get bored and everything is beautiful. The Kids and the World of Pandora are really the heart of the movie. That's the thing with Avatar 2. I can't hate it and call it trash but I can't love it like I loved Avatar 1.
What bothered me is the story strength and the last battle and at times I felt a drop in the quality of the scenes in the 2nd half. I do like this movie but not because it brought something new to the table or because it mesmerized me like Avatar 1 did but because of the children and seeing them learn the way of water and interacting together and their journeys.
I will recommend it to people who did love Avatar 1 like I did but if they were neutral or didn't like Avatar 1 then Avatar 2 will not win them over.
Watching it in the Theater is really a must. Don't expect a new story either. It felt like Avatar 1 story but with a Navi instead of a human learning something new and adapting to a new lifestyle.
The person teaching the ways of water is definitely more patient and tolerant compared to Neytiri ha ha. We can easily match the new characters and their roles to the old ones from Avatar 1 and they didn't sideline Jake and Neytiri too much to make them irrelevant to the plot.
If anyone says Avatar 2 is bad then that's not true in fact far from truth but it's not as great as the first one. In the end though I am looking forward to Avatar 3. I am very curious about the lives of the kids and how much more Pandora can offer in terms of world building. All in all had fun. Not a waste of money but a little disappointed too... mainly due to the 2nd half. So it's not a total letdown...only little bit of a letdown. I just wonder why they couldn't use some of the budget for a stronger and better story which could properly show the world building James Cameron clearly focused on but also succeed in giving us an engaging story with smoother dialogues.
It could have been perfect you know. The Sequel, and that's what bugs me.
Hope you get what I am trying to say with my rant. I feel like I am not being clear enough.
I am not gonna spoil anything! Just watch it in 3D. Trust me. This movie really does the 3D part justice. Most of the movies I felt like they release it in 3D just like that and didn't shoot the film to really utilize the 3D tech. This one is best to watch it in 3D.
Yes! Yes of course Another! That's in my watch list too. We did talk about it when we talked about you Pro Pic. I really have so many anime to watch but first I gotta finish Darling in Franxx and of course I wanna see why Spice and Wolf is well loved by you and the rest of it's fans.
Hmm... maybe there is a certain charm to some of the older ones but only some of them... most of the anime I watched are just so slow and low in quality, that I started to avoid them if I could help it.
Soooo does that mean Balance Unlimited is now added to your watchlist???? o(≧∇≦o)
Wait I thought you didn't like the YOI Ed much since you don't like that style of music??
Harem and Love Triangles usually end up really dropping the quality of a story and shows generally lose their way on what made them interesting. It's usually a cheap trick to show the MC is desirable and not really have a proper arc to truly make them desirable.
It seriously is so refreshing to be able to talk to you about not only the ships we have in common but also the ships we don't. It's too bad how people usually end up getting personally offended if you try to explain why we like our ship better than theirs. Shipping wars sometimes feel like real wars. *shudders*
I am happy we met! o(〃^▽^〃)o
You know I used to love talking to my mom about Team Edward and Team Jacob too. Doing that in my school with my school friends was a mistake. Yikes! It's scary how passionate both Teams were back then.
Yeah!! I agree with what you say. Not every love story has to be love at first sight or even because they are attracted to each other's personality or hate each others guts. Sometimes it's what they live through together that brings people together. The Trust and Comfort these two have after all they went through. The peace they finally get to have even though sometimes Katniss still wakes up from nightmares and Peeta still gets flashbacks due to the aftereffects of the venom. They make it work because they are each others life boat and each others strengths.
Yea at first I wondered when did Peeta act like that. Then I understood you were talking about the attempted suicide part.
So AOI is more Action oriented but when it gets dark it gets really dark. Yea I figured it'll keep on the edge of my seat. I am partial to Mikasa already because of listening to this theme song right after I heard Reluctant Heroes. This piece of music is really too good! I get so energized listening to this!
The EDs and OP of KNS are really great and the EDs show how much brighter Ayano and Ren make his world. He just has to open his eyes to see them right in front of him or by his side ready to pick him up. He's not alone.
I kinda do like Kazuma's backstory. It makes so much sense why he is the way he is because of how dark and unhappy his childhood and teenage life has been. He's just 21 I think and already been through too much. No wonder he is so harsh at first. I bet deep down he doesn't want his heart to let any more people in to protect himself but Life had other plans.
Makes me wonder how amazing the rest of the story could have been.
Yea The Audio sounds weird... I actually watched a couple of eps of Season 1 in Dub and then realised I prefer the sub even though I prefer Inuyasha Dub over sub. The Sub is better for each of the girls too since it suits their personality more. The best part about this scene is Inuyasha calling Moroha his baby!! My heart! (´□`)ノ♡
Towa and Kagome being Niece and Aunt is very cute too.
They already ... Wait how far did you say you were in DA 3? Did you yet meet a certain someone? two certain someones from the previous games??
You don't know yet how truly impactful it will be for the Inquisitor to be a major supporting character or a companion in DA 4. Even if we don't get them as a companion. I need them as a major supporting role who helps the MC of DA4 and will be a friend to them. Will be a part of the DA 4 storyline.
Exactly!!! Groot head feels off with his shoulders! What happened!! Teen Groot's head was bigger.
Ha ha ok ok. Their likes were BL, Sports, Shounen, Romance, Supernatural, Action, Comedy. They wanted something like Sasaki to Miyano, Horimiya, AOT, Banana Fish, Haikyuu, Given etc and absolutely disliked Love Polygons, Harem and Hentai. I was like "YES!!! Someone after my own heart!!" then suggested:- Drumroll please!!!
1) SK 8
2) Gekkan Shojo Nozaki Kun
3) Busou Renkin
SK 8 was definitely gonna get recommended because of the sports and implied BL. They also loved Banana Fish which shows they have a high chance of liking this one. Renga is OTP material and the Skaters Family feels is best Found Fam/Nakama feels.
I was wondering whether to recommed Shikimori san or Nozaki kun when i realised they already has Shikimori san in their Plan to watch list. So I suggested that they could watch that for Horimiya feels and the more focus on Romance. TO watch Nozaki kun for more Comedy and Otaku feels like in Sasaki to Miyano.
Last but not least I was gonna recommend KNS but then I saw they loved Tokyo Ghoul so I recommended Busou Renkin. Which is Shounen, Romance, lil Comedy and good Action with a good story and likeable leads. It has monsters like in Tokyo ghouls which are not just monsters. People who are part of them and who are against them. I got interested in Tokyo Ghoul because it gave similar feels to Busou Renkin.
I watched Avatar today! My dad surprised me with the tickets to the show. It was good not great but definitely something you should watch on the Big screen. Basically if you liked Avatar 1 you will like this one or at least have fun watching it. Avatar 1 is definitely better in my eyes. We now have too many movies which are great at CGI for Avatar 2 to be a marvel that Avatar 1 was.
I added Seiken Tsukai to my plan to watch list. It's interesting their powers coming from their past lives. I could give it a watch someday.
Yea I can see the popularity of Dusk Maiden. I do love Horror. I couldn't find horror anime like Ghost Hunt ever! It was my first Horror Anime and damn good one. So I was searching for Horror anime when I came across Psychic Detective Yakumo, Dusk Maiden and GoSick.
I usually don't prefer older animes but I could see how well loved Cowboy Bebop. So I added that to my watchlist too. Also you say you like it! So Yep definitely added to my watchlist. Do you like older animes?? Do you prefer newer ones? I genereally tend to not watch anime which are older than the year 2000
Balance Unlimited ED is also good! I really like it! This is a good fun anime to watch. I wish it was longer. I would love to watch some 50 eps of Haru and Kanbe just being the best Partners solving crimes together.
Our Villainess is not only adorable but a smart cool FL.
Ohhh I get what you mean it's sad to see Canon couples whose relationship we just can't buy. Especially when it's a Main couple. This used to happen to me a lot when watching Kdramas. Most of them have a 2nd ML who is so much better than the 1st ML, who treats the FL so much better than the 1st ML and who is equally talented and cool as 1st ML but also likable. Everytime I watch such anime, I am like 'Here we go again, I will ship the FL with the 2nd ML and get the 2nd Lead Syndrome all over again' That's why these days I avoid every piece of media which has a love triangle!!!
The Non-Love Triangle stories tend to have a stronger healthier believable and ever rootable Canon Couple!
Yep My mom shipped Bella and Jacob so much. She kept saying though she likes Edward as an individual, For Bella it was always Jacob. Who was there for her and healed her heart and apparently just loved her so much. Apparently Jacob gives her a warm vibe... and no matter what I said though she didn't hate BellaXEdward and even was neutral to that pairing, she just didn't get them.
It makes sense too for us to not be completely on board with Peeta and Katniss. Like I said it's not just plain attraction or just like each other for their character and getting along together. It's so much more than that for these two and Katniss most of the time doesn't want to fall for Peeta because he was the Boy with Bread for her. He was the light in her life like Prim. She is terrified of loving him and losing him. Gale is something she gets in my opinion. They are cut from the same cloth. The Childhood friends who are so in sync and who know each other so well. Like I said they would have made a good couple together.
It's just Peeta and Katniss just feel so right after everything they have been through together and individually.
Wait Peeta wasn't shocked or against Katniss shooting Coin there. Everyone knows who Coin is and what her agendas are as a Leader. Peeta was against even suggesting the Hunger Games like Coin did. No he was the way he was in that scene because he discovered Katniss trying to commit Suicide by taking the Poison capsule and went to stop her.
I suppose AOT is dark right? Deaths and circumstances? I bet it has great action and emotion. Kazuma's soft corner is his little brother and I adore it. Just look at this scene!! The first two clips and also the 5th Clip. Look at that look on Kazuma's face. That's the proud face of a big brother! Though I wonder why he tested Ren like that, maybe to make Ren stronger? He was saying something about synchronizing with the Spirits of Fire. And then he started caring for Ayano too! His only reasons for really sticking around the Kanagi Fam: Ren and Ayano.
He really doesn't have to help the Kanagi Family in any way after what they did to him. He was just a kid when he was kicked out after all the grueling training he went through, the pressure, the emotional damage he had to suffer. God. There is a reason he is the way he is. He finally found happiness with Tsui Ling and then she was brutally torn from him and then when he was about to die his powers awakened. The guilt, the pain I can't imagine what Kazuma felt after Tsui Ling's death.
Speaking of that I love this scene! 1:19 to 3:13 Just look at Ayano in this scene! You can see how she will one day will be a great leader. Ah I love when she said "I'm willing to bet Enraiha on it!"
On that note one of the best endings:- Kns ED . Reminded me of Inuyasha's Come my Way
I started watching Death Note and then gave up. I guess I wasn't ready for it 10 years ago. My cousin recommended it. I should try it again. Maybe I will like it now.
The Balcony scene!!!! It's so good! I love the white colour use in that scene. I also really like Romeo's mom in this. She has been through a lot. Her scene with Juliet just hit me in the feels.
Romeo and Juliet flying away on the Pegasus was so beautiful. That scene was right out of a Fairy Tale.
Hmm then I should watch Spice and Wolf after Franxx. Ok!
Animax dub is so bad that it's funny ha ha. Maid Sama animax dub wasn't the worst you know? I haven't seen Maid Sama actual dub.
I know right! Mage feels canon in every DA game. I hope we get to see the Inquisitor in DA 4 as a major supporting character!
Guardians 3 after they lost their Gamora. Can't wait to see how this Gamora will be and also how Rocket's friendship with Nebula will be since they mourned together for 5 years and travelled together. didn't like Groot design that much... this time around....
I haven't done a MAL event before either. Never found the time but this one sounded like it could be fun and as a Secret Santa I got to suggest 3 animes to someone who also likes the genres that I do. So yea.
I love celtic type music so much! Dragon Heart is seriously so good!!! I love the vocals so much. Such an ethereal and pleasant feel and then it changes into a Adventure music set in Fantasy world with Angels type of story and then back to Celtic vocals and a good mix of both. Love it! Normal Magic? or does it have a theme of Holy Magic?
I also really like Requiem!! Dusk Maiden of Amnesia is actually in my watchlist. I heard it's good. What's your opinion of the anime? Is it horror?
The Real Folks Blues the link didn't work so listen to this oneIs it the one you wanted me to hear? It feels like a music a detective story will have. It really does feel unique. Not what I expect from a typical Anime OP or ED.
Seriously love them all!! I added all 3 to my list. I haven't seen any of the three.
I am adding Cowboy Bebop to my plan to watch list!! It sounds like it'll be fun. Though it looks like it's an older anime. What do you think about the animation?
Yea I was never against shipping Gale and Katniss, I just ship Katniss and Peeta more. I usually love reading fanfic about them and also Haymitch post canon to the point they had kids. It's mentioned in the books how reluctant Katniss was to have kids because of how scared she can lose them like her sister by bringing them into this world. Peeta always wanted kids but he waited till Katniss was comfortable with it. I just wanna give them a big hug. They suffered too much. All of them did. I hate how Primrose died so suddenly. It was a shock to me. Why did she have to die?? And so suddenly too!
Why do you wanna be a Peeta Supporter? It's surprising. Most of the time I only meet people who are fixed with a ship and they fight for that ship no matter what. You are saying you'd like to instead of you don't mind to ship. Why? Because they are canon?
Hat's off to the Actor who pulled of Snow so perfectly!! Donald Sutherland huh?
Exactly!!! Gale wouldn't do that!! It just doesn't make sense. It's Coin who is responsible for that! Why is Gale getting blamed for it? Was it his idea?? I don't get it. Also what was Primrose even doing there?? How is she there?? How?? Was it also Coin's plan?? To bomb the Capitol's citizens and people like Prim?
Also this scene was so satisfying!!! After watching Prim die and watching those Bomb blasts! Watching Katniss shoot Coin as Coin says may your aim be true. Hah! Take that! Also man the look on Snow's face. He knows Katniss too well. That man doesn't fear death at all does he? Look at Plutarch's silent smile. Oh man.
I haven't watched Attack on Titans actually. I was searching for a song to listen to as I read Trash of Count's Family webtoon and searched for Reluctant Hero theme and AOT's Reluctant Heroes is first suggestion by Youtube! What a suggestion too! Absolutely what I wanted! AOT got added to my Watchlist and I blasted this song the whole day.
Yea not anymore. I used to talk to people in Fanfiction.net KNS had so much potential too but yea at least we got a proper ending and no cliffhangers. Sure we could have learned more about the Villain's Organisation and Lapis but at least we got a proper ending where all three are now a team who will fight against this organisation. Ayano will only grow stronger and both of them have acknowledged their feelings for the other at least to themselves. Ren's awesome and will only be more awesome and no need to say anything about how amazing Kazuma's storyline is.
So SAO huh?? Nice!! It really is an Anime that can spark people's interest! It was such a unique feel at that time. I never saw anything like it. Never knew that genre till then. Future Diary is in my watchlist!! You know someone actually told be it's a lighter version of Death Note. Me knowing neither of them and what they are about was like huh? ok. ┐(°‿°)┌
Anime truly is something completely different! I agree! That's why I am such a fan of Animes even more than Kdramas!
Ohh I am happy to see you are interested in YOI now! \(^▽^)/
How's RomeoXJuliet coming along? I am kinda on hold now with Franxx. Will probably end up binge-watching it after exams. Aw man I wanna watch it right now but I gotta resist!
Ohhh so the movies left a stronger impression? I loved Silent Voice. I was a lil skeptical about how they will handle the relationship with the ex-bully and the person bullied but it was really believable. Everything! I had to give it a 10. It made me tear up too(;﹏;)
Is Spice and Wolf really that good? You mentioned it a couple of times. I never watched it and wasn't that interested with the summary or the picture in MAL so it's left in the Plan to watch list. Seeing how much you like it maybe I should give it a shot after Franxx.
Josee, the Tiger and the Fish is also in my watchlist. I remember seeing a clip in Youtube and really wanting to see it.
you actually found Inuyasha Animax dub? Where? Youtube? I even watched Maid Sama in Animax dub you know all the eps.
For DA3 fav character is definitely Dorian and Solas! It's always these mages and elves that get me with their backstories and conversations with the MC in all 3 DA games. My fav character in DA1:- Morrigan who is a Mage, DA 2:- Fenris and ok Varric too and fine I suppose Isabela as well since she is truly a treat to watch onscreen and most importantly Hawke themselves but Fenris is again an Elf, Hawke is always a Mage for me in Headcanon. DA 3:- Mage and Elven Mage! I wonder who I will end up loving in DA 4.
I am almost Finished with Moon Knight! It's seriously so good!! doesn't feel like an MCU product but it's own story and a good one at that! Just Ep 6 left!
Our Heroes are too scattered and don't feel a part of a whole yet also feel like they are forcefully being put in a whole that doesn't exist properly and that's the bummer.Also none of them have proper story arcs anymore. It's too bad really. I hope Phase 5 is better and yeah, we get a big payoff by the end like the Avenger film.
Saw the Guardians of Galaxy vol 3 trailer??
I don't remember Annie getting too much of attention in the books since we see the books through Katniss's eyes. It's her story and her pov that we read, that we experience Panem and Hunger Games.
Haymitch really is an Underrated Character! Love his arc and how much he started caring once again. Actually he cared too much at first and the capitol wanted to teach him a lesson and killed everyone he loved and that's why he became the way he did. He wanted to stop loving anyone for their sake and his own and then Katniss and Peeta came into his life!
Ohhh I get what you mean. That video you shared. Yea! Peak KatnissXGale moments! One of the scenes I clearly remember is the whipping scene. God...
Like the I told... unfortunately the movies don't sell PeetaXKatniss as well as the books do, they don't even make as much as impact as fanfictions do. Still I did like Katniss and Peeta even in the movies and I enjoyed Katniss and Gale moments as well. At one Point I even wondered whether romance was necessary in this story. You remember this scene in Mockingjay part 1? Broke my heart... one of the best scenes in the series! Also how Haymitch came to care for Katniss. God my heart there. Katniss asking Did I lose them both in that..
Hey by the way not as a ship but as a person and story arc what do you think of Peeta?
You know I really didn't like the scene where Primrose dies and it's from Gale's bombs. I know Coin is responsible for that and not Gale but ugh! I don't think Katniss and Gale can reconcile from that at least for a few years.
Ooo do go on about your favourite anime OSTs. It falls under two of my fav topics to talk about:- Anime and Music. Special A has 5 pairs I think. My fav are of course MegumiXYahiro!! I don't think the anime has all 5 pairs. I think it has 4 of them. Yea. 4 of them. KeiXHikari, AkiraXTadshi, MegumiXYahiro and JunXSakura.
Do you like songs with vocals or instrumental?? You know this song?
Ohh I have been avoiding Angel Beats because I thought it was tragic. If it's Happy Cry then yea I can watch it.
A real fan of anime..... Inuyasha is really the one that made me interested in this medium but Anime as a whole... is kind of hard to say. I have been watching without knowing they are anime when I watched Inuyasha, Maid Sama, Busou Renkin, RomeoXJuliet. Then stopped watched when Animax was removed. Started watching Fairy Tail infrequently with very low quality because of low Internet speed. Watched Marmalade Boy and the old Fruit Basket. Then, Gakuen Alice and then Hayate ne Gotoku, Itazura na Kiss
But at that time I was more of a Manga reader than an Anime watcher. I was always on and off with anime and not particularly because it's anime and never actively searching for more anime. I knew about Anime by this point though.
I think I really started watching Anime because of Yuri On Ice. Like really actively started watching Anime and then Bungou Stray Dogs solidified me as an Anime fan.
No Wait It's Kaze No Stigma which made me interested in Anime and anime community!! Yea. Not my first anime but the anime which really won me over and made me recognise them as Anime but Yuri on Ice is the one that really ignited my love for anime and then Bungou Stray Dogs solidified it! So you could say Inuyasha- Kaze No Stigma- Yuri on Ice- Bungou Stray Dogs.
And for you??
Yea by the time the second ED came Moroha became a lil less of a comic character I think. not that great but a bit better. I just love the whole design of the visuals too in both ED 2 and OP.
NOPE! Not a cover at all! It's sung by Dean Fujioka and is the official OP of Yuri on Ice! This anime op really is something. It really has a special place in my heart. Whenever I feel down I listen to it! The ED is awesome too.
Both OP and ED Gives a unique feeling no other anime managed for me till now
I really hope you will watch Yuri On Ice and Bungou Stray Dogs one day not immediately of course but when you feel like it and love them as much I do. They really are something.
What are the animes that made you feel that way? That they really are something special.
RomeoXJuliet is actually the first official Dub I had the immense pleasure of watching followed by Kaze No Stigma. Inuyasha at first I watched the Animax dub version which is actually not that great and was so surprised by how well Inuyasha Dub really is!
Sera is seriously such a treat to watch. Her Party conversations are one of the best with everyone. Just see this XD
Yea too much of anything isn't good even if it is MCU comedy.
Yea exactly. take a horror aspect of RE 7 and the story aspect of RE 8 (and the world building) and voila perfect sequel. Then again there is already a DLC which is a sequel in a way/ I am watching it right now.
Thank goodness that Tom Holland's Spidey is part of the MCU and Sony can't reboot him all willy nilly. I wonder what the next movie will be like for this Spidey. I hope he will be in the next Avengers movie. By the way Phase 4 is apparently over and now onto Phase 5.... it doesn't even feel like a Phase is over. It feels barely started, even with so many movies and tv shows whereas Phase 1 with much less no of movies and no tv shows made such an impact and told an overarching story. It proves how much Quality is more important than the Quantity.
Even though Finnick didn't trust Katniss and Peeta, I love he doesn't really judge them and how they survived. He just saw it as a well done strategy, teased Katniss about it. I guess he was testing her and when he saw that it's not just a strategy and that they really do care for one another and that! that makes him trust them. I miss Finnick. How can you miss a fictional character.... I read so many fix its where he survived you know after the 4th movie.
Finnick dying to save Katniss and the others just....ugh he suffered so much and he couldn't get his happy ending!! At least we got to see him marry Annie. It's too bad he never got to meet his son.
YES! Finnick the true hero of the movies!!
What are your thoughts on Snow and Haymitch?? Snow is seriously one of the best and interesting villains in my opinion. Hunger Games is one of the only YAs actually done right, the movie adaptations especially.

Thanks for your feedback on my review. I loved the manga so much. It's so sad that the anime turned out to be super low budget.
Sure, I would love to chat if you are still interested.
Yes! Iris instead or Roses or Tulips or any other popular flower. It's Iris that symbolises their love. This is why I love this anime so much. Made me believe that Love at first sight does exist for these two. only the anime Romeo and Juliet not the book ones. These two are too precious for the unfair world they live in.
Oh yea. Your fav VA right?
Yea I wonder what will happen next in Franxx. I really hope none of our group dies... I really do...
Gaang yep. That's what AO3 calls them all. It's a popular tag.
Ha ha that's ok. BakuDeku is famous and I do hope they become actual friends in the future but not at the expense of Izuku. Izuku deserves better.
Ha ha yea. I haven't given up yet. We'll see. I'll tell you if I find that magical anime. Does your family watch anime with you?
Why bait us with scenes throughout the MCU and then separate them in such a harsh way and breaking our Ship to pieces. They sunk the Romanogers ship like the Titanic.
Awww well lot's of comments and messages from me today(*^-^*) (⁄ ⁄>⁄ ▽ ⁄<⁄ ⁄)
Mmhmm I love that VN so much and it's free!! How is it so good and free. Ohh yea even I usually love to read multiple romance paths. Interesting to see how each characters changes our story and how our MC impacts them but something about our choices mattering and shaping our MC's relationship with this new boy is also a neat concept. All the characters (supporting ) are also so well written.
Cool! So pokemon and digimon it is then. They are my longest ones and then Inuyasha. Yea I am really liking the 12-13 ones too. Especially those whose stories are completed in one season and then I start to crave for more. ha ha
Hmm Naruto huh. I tried watching it... but didn't like it... it wasn't engaging to me and It's not because of Naruto himself but that anime is just something that pulled me in and made me want to see more.
Ohh so you never finished it. right! it's kinda boring right?? I didn't even finish more than 10 eps
I see that you are almost finished with RomeoXJuliet. You saw the Church scene right? Isn't it truly beautiful. It's one of my all time favourite scenes in an anime. So beautiful and they look so happy and their words show how much they love each other. And Irisis being shown again and again in key moments between Romeo and Juliet is just the perfect touch.
Are you watching it in Dub or Sub? I forgot.
Watching Classic shows and remembering why we love Anime in the first place is such a good feeling. I had this when Yashahime first came out. I more or less rewatched all Inuyasha eps after finishing the 1st season of Yashahime. That feeling of happiness and nostalgia is really something isn't it?
Btw finally watched another ep of Franxx. It's nice how nothing is boring and the main story along with the team bonding moments even if it is *ahem* puberty is shown in this anime. Zero Two is a normal girl too and the boys realising how much they want to protect the girls made me smile and then of course Miku found the former squad 13.
I feel like Zero Two knows a lot about what's really going on with this squad. They are different from other squads and it's for a reason isn't it? A new experiment by these people who are in charge.
Reminds me of Maze Runner.
I don't know if I will ever end up watching Digimon again but I do wanna rewatch Digimon Frontier if I can find the time.
YES!!! Then you can add Avatar to your watchlist too. Trust me with this. Avatar is heavily inspired by Animes and the Gaang are truly one of the best ever!! Yes it's Gaang because the Avatar's name is Aang ha ha. You will love everyone and I am curious as to who you will like most.
Finished Season 1 and started Season 2. Todoroki is appearing a lot more in this season so far. Love Izuku and his two friends. Bakugo not a fan but better than the 1st season.BakuDeku scarred me. I will never google My Hero Academia fanart so casually again. How can anyone ship these two!!! HOW!!! I can't see it. I can't see how anyone could ship these two. Maybe Bakugo is better in later seasons. I don't know! I feel like it's unhealthy for Izuku to end up with his Bully in this way where Bakugo shows no remorse for all the bullying he has done.
If I have to ship Izuku with anyone I would ship him with his friend Ochaka and maybe Todoroki because I can feel some bonding between these two in Season 2 especially with Todoroki's dad making an appearance. Mostly I just want to see why this anime is so popular, read some good fanfics where everyone is a team and a found family and maybe ship Izuku when he is a little older and be careful of shipping fanart. Most of them are cute and some...well....
Anime is maybe not his Cup of tea. We'll see. I am not giving up yet!
A son for a son better age up well with all the drama it deserves after making Neytiri's character go in that direction
Tai and Sora for Life! I am still in denial over the canon pairing and I will always stay in this denial.
I think the MCU purposely did that knowing the Fans wanted it, I remember it being a big thing back then.
That's nice. I am looking forward to hearing more about it. I wanna stay near my parents too when I move out.
Huntik is about people who can summons Titans from Amulets. Good Vs Evil, a mystery, a team of 4 heroes who meet because of fate, who slowly grow stronger together and come to care for one another, two couples, Amazing action, great story.
I try to stay more active through Messages if I can't reply here!
Aww... Thanks for waiting. I love our Convos!
Btw have you ever heard of a VN called Our life. It's awesome and free. Please check it out! You'll love it https://gbpatch.itch.io/our-life
Longest huh probably Pokemon, Inuyasha and All the Digimon... Do Pokemon and Digimon count?
Yes! But I mostly just prefer shorter ones now. Max 26 eps in one season. What about you?
Yep exactly! Relaxation, bonding moments, Character progression, the characters from the anime becoming more real and human that makes us feel for them.
I really like every single one of the group. They all feel different from each other and have their own personality, opinions and how they are reacting to everything around them is really interesting to see.
Digimon frontier was my fav back when it was airing in Cartoon Network. I used to love watching that show and also Digimon Data Squad. Hey have you watched the Remake of the original Digimon? I want to see it but I am a little skeptical on if it will really capture the magic of the original series.
Mmhmm I usually don't interact much online with strangers except for in AO3 but that's also because I comment on every story I read about what I like about it but other than that Youtube comments make me not chat with people much but MAL is seriously one of the nicest Communities I ever had the pleasure of being a part of and am so glad I got to interact with people like you who not only respect my opinions about something but also share their opinions in non-aggressive way and also we get to just have fun chatting like this about this world of anime we really like ^_^
Yep let's see what the next event is gonna be like and participate in it if we can. I know Avatar Last Airbender has all 3 seasons in Netflix but I don't know whether it's in your area or not. Do you have VPN? It's 20 eps each. I like Avatar more than My Hero Academia. I don't get what the hype is but the ending episodes are definitely more fun than the beginning and I do like Izuku as the MC. Though I don't like Bakugou that much.... I know he has a lot of fans but I don't see the appeal and man there are so many BakuDeku ship fanfics in AO3 that I am like "Nope!"
I do like Izuku's two friends and also Todoroki (I think that's his name. The hald fire, half ice kid) and also I am looking forward to seeing the Mentor-Mentee relationship between Almight and Izuku!
All in all It got better by the end the season 1 and season 2 so far is not boring at all. Still don't like Bakugou....
Aww thank you. Yea I am pretty close with both my parents and me being an only child definitely is a factor. What about you? Are you an only child or do you have siblings?
That's nice! Harry Potter and MCU are movies to watch together as a family. I get what you mean I am trying to get my dad into Anime and Kdrama but not working so far. I tried making him watch Bungou Stray Dogs and he said he doesn't find it boring and it feels like it isn't something he will come to enjoy. It's entertaining to see how he just calls the characters with their powers instead of their names. Atsushi the main character is the "Tiger boy" ha ha. We dropped watching it and started Avatar Last Airbender and season 1 is done and Season 2 is midway. I am glad we are atleast finishing this one at a steady pace. I hope to finish all 3 seasons by the time more of my relatives come.
Yea the Whale Hunters are both something I like and dislike in the movie. It's weird how I feel both when I watched them on screen. Makes for a good conflict but is unoriginal because it's the equivalent of the Human's greed for the Unobtainium in Avatar 1. I wished they showed the Humans needing the whales for their survival in some way and not the greed part again coming into play but usually the greed does come into play. So yea especially the part where it extends people's lives makes for a good motive.
Unobtainium is important because it makes them space travel I think and that's why it's very costly too. i remember Selfridge telling about Unobtainium to Jake.
Either way they better make it pay off. I want some conflict with Spider, Neytiri and her children (who are Spider's best friends and also Jake kind of adopted Spider as his own from the way we saw him hug Spider at the end. Before that I don't think even Jake saw Spider as his kid). Yea only time will tell.
Hmm I am ok with Kiri and I am looking forward to seeing her connection with Eywa and Grace. I do love that scene with her and Jake. Jake calling her baby girl was so sweet but I do get how her whole character is just her being a child of Grace and her connection with Eywa and also that she has a bond with Spider.
IKR!!! How could they do that to us!! Sora ends up with Matt! Matt!!! How?? WHY!! Tai even helps them get together! What the hell!!! It's like watching Romanogers ship sink all over again after Winter Soldier.... I still craved for their scenes together all throughout MCU after Winter Soldier like that scene in Civil War where Nat says that she came because she didn't want Steve to be alone. My Romanogers heart...
Tai and Sora belong together!!! I love how they bicker and what about the movie where Tai writes Love Tai instead of From Tai. Isn't that what happens in the movie??
Wow for the past few years huh. I bet you are both nervous and excited about it. I look forward to those updates. Will you be moving to some place else? I mean another city or something like that?
Btw have you ever watched Huntik? I just got a nostalgia blast when I found this
Well I am curious as to what theme and look you will make your profile! Will you keep your intro as the same? Just click on About me design. There are some amazing designs to choose from.
Thanks for saying that. It's just that I know what it's like to look forward to a reply from a friend online or not and not get it soon so I just want to say why I couldn't message as frequently we I would have liked to.
Alright I won't apologise but I will probably still message you if I don't reply to Our convo for more than 2 days or so. I am happy and having fun. That's so sweet. I feel so happy you said that.
This ep is really nice and I love how they found the remnants of the civilisation that was once there. When Kokoro found the motherhood book, I realised how they probably have no knowledge about the normals things we know. Like how humans were all once babies born to parents and then they grow slowly and become adults.
They keep talking about becoming adults and I worry everytime they say that. I feel like there is catch to them being able to use those machines to fight monsters. Maybe they fight these things with their life force or something.I wish they will all have a happy ending. I feel like the real plot is only starting now.
All those kids are really growing on me. They strangely give me Digimon Frontier vibes. Have you seen Digimon Frontier?
Yep I got my first badge! I have been meaning to get one but usually all the events need us to do a certain task and I don't get to concentrate on it as much as I want to so I wanted to take part in an event both enjoyable and doable by me. That's why I chose Secret Santa one when I read about it and it's also great way to meet new friends and share anime and talk about things we like. I found someone to talk to who loves MDZS as much as I do. Though I don't talk with them as frequently I do with you, it's still fun.
Let's see if the next event is as fun as the Secret Santa one. I wonder when the next event will be. Mostly probably on Feb 14 right? I don't know much about MAL events and when they take place.
You haven't seen Avatar Last Airbender!!! What!!! How did you miss Avatar?? It's art style is heavily inspired by anime and it's such a good adventure story. I highly recommend it!! It isn't listed on MAL? I didn't know that.
Yea my dad is kinda my Movies/Tv shows buddy. We watched so many movies and tv shows together. We have our own things like he doesn't watch anime and I don't watch some of the tv shows he does but all in all we watch a lot of things together.
He is the one who introduced me to Terminator, Star Wars, Jurassic Park and Harry Potter. Even Spiderman was something he knew I would enjoy and made me watch on Star Movies. Home Alone is a classin for us and we watch it together every Dec. We are now watching all the MCU movies. Watching Phase 1 currently . Finished Iron Man 1 yesterday and now onto Iron Man 2.
Mom is not a movie fan. She prefers nature walks and is a social butterfly and I am not ha ha. We usually cook together and watch Kdramas ( I manged to make her a Kdrama fan)
What about you?
I felt like the Humans were better in this movie than part 1. in part 1 Humans came to Pandora for obtaining a rare mineral called unobtainium which is not necessary for Human survival but it's because it's expensive and it fuels space travel. In part 2 Humans are on Pandora because they need Pandora for survival of the species.
All Navi are awesome in both parts but humans only fought to obtain a mineral not that necessary whereas in Part 2 they started fighting for the survival of the species. Another thing we get to see Spider and Quartich be humans and create a parent-child bond (he isn't just some villain who shoots down the locals). He is person, he had bonds and he still does. It's too bad he is in his avatar form and not human anymore. i can guess why they did that, the actor is 70 yrs. Makes sense to make a avatar for him.
The lines actually blurred when Neytiri threatened the Villain by using his child whereas Quartich didn't really hurt the kids in the movie. Yes he also threatened our heroes but he is the villain.
The Navi are also Human. That's what I got from this movie. Then again I did feel conflicted in Avatar 1 too and didn't really like watching all the humans get killed.
My mom liked the family aspect and the new characters too. She was so not happy that Neteyam was killed. She completely lost interest in the movie after that.
Tsireya right! She was awesome right? Not a Neytiri 2.0 like I feared. I love how the water Navi look different than the forest ones. Also some of the kids getting Jake's eyebrows and 5 fingers is such an interesting detail. Some of the Navi will now have 5 fingers and eyebrows if the children ever have children and they got it from their parents.
I do hope more involvement of good humans will be there in Avatar 2. You were right in that aspect. Good humans were clearly shown on the Navi's side but calling the antagonists of Avatar 1 bad... felt a little like a bitter pill to swallow. Did I make sense?
I hope we get all the kids equally in the next part. I would love to see some scenes of the youngest one too. Again forgot her name. Btw what do you think of Kiri? Grace's avatar being pregnant with Kiri, that plotline?
Yes! All of Pandora fighting as one. such an epic feeling! Especially when Neytiri yells in excitement how Eywa heard Jake! Wow!
I used to play with Beyblades a lot. Bought at least 6 different ones. I used to love spinning them. Me and my cousin tried to even battle with them.
I love how Digimon has a story continuity and doesn't get as repitive as Pokemon with the MC being a 10 Year Old Ash all the time! I stopped watching after the Sinnoh league.
My last Digimon for Digimon Data Squad. I heard of Tri but I haven't seen it. I need to catch up on so much Digimon content. The only anime I was interested was Tri but when I heard Sora and Tai won't end up together I was so upset that I kinda...well dropped it without even trying one ep. It was 5 years ago I think.... I don't remember.
Today is India's Republic Day. We were all celebrating hence the late reply. A mini vacation. National Holiday.
YOI and SK8 same studios.
I am still living with my parents myself. We tend to do that till we start a job and then we move out or we even wait till we get married here. ha ha depends on a person but that's mostly the case especially in Southern India.
So cool that you have been saving up and now can get your own place! I would love to hear about what you are picturing as your own home.
Ooo that'd be cool. A revamp. Me too I gotta finish Franxx too but spending time with Fam so haven't turned on the laptop as much as I usually do.
Sorry for the late reply...
I have two new friends now. My secret Santa and the one I was the Secret Santa to.
Btw I have been re watching Avatar Last Airbender with my dad (who is watching for the first time). Have you watched Avatar Last Airbender?
hmm then I can watch it with my family, Christmas Chronicles I mean. For me, It's just been hard to find good Christmas movies these days.
Me too. I hoped the Kids would get proper character development and spotlight without sidelining Jake and Neytiri and James Cameron more or less actually succeeded in doing that. What a pleasant surprise. I am so used to being disappointed by movies these days especially sequels to well beloved sagas and stand alone movies. Avatar 2 was almost perfect and with better writing it could have been better than Avatar 1.... too bad They were more concentrated on showing Pandora and not more on the flow of the story.
Still, I did have fun and I am so glad you did too! Who did you go with? Did they have fun too? My parents and I watched the movie....and let's just say I was the only one enjoying it, My dad was enjoying some parts of it and was neutral to the others and my mom straight on got bored of it.
Neteyam was my favourite too ╥﹏╥ He deserved a better ending....All the kids were great, even Spider. It was also refreshing to see the Water tribe's princess? I forgot her name. Loak's LI not be a Neytiri 2.0
Neteyam actually reminded me of Dick Grayson from Batfam. I tend to love these type of characters and grow really attached.
Exactly!!! Loak and Jake never got to have a proper fleshed out conversation!! I wish they will in the next part. They need it! Especially now.
Neytiri has always been aggressive and warrior type but not like this.... if she was like in this movie from the start, she would have been like Tsutey in a way and not trust Jake in any way.
Yea.... the decade doesn't show in the movie... it feels instead a little rushed and clumsy but overall a 7 out of 10 for me. Hope the next one will have a better script and story flow.
The plot points aren't the weakness of this movie but how they get to it needs some work and also I wish it didn't feel so isolated. In the first part it's was Eywa heard Jake and everyone united, even the creatures to fight back but in this one... it just feels so isolated. not necessarily bad or wrong in any way but wish it was better told and shown.
Loak and the Tulkun is really one of the best parts of the movie right??? I loved those scenes so so much!! The ocean really did feel alive, just like the forest in the previous movie.
Aliens first! Please I wanna know your reaction to that movie. I'll recommend the ones I like, if you want to watch them in both Aliens and Predators though there are not that many good ones in so many movies...
Yea I was a teenager too when I first started watching anime if you don't count Pokemon, Digimon and Beyblade. Which did you like more? Pokemon? Digimon? or Beyblade?
Yea.... Miroku gets an episode but Sango just appears in the last fight mostly. I'll share some clips if I find them. Hisui is actually good character with good potential... which is again mostly wasted.
Most focus is I guess on Riku. Riku is a fun character so I can't complain much.
When I was first watching Inuyasha I used to be so worried about Kohaku's fate. I feel so glad and happy to see him all grown up.
2023 huh... I guess I want to finish my studies If i can and I want to increase my health through exercise and all that... nothing much apart from that. Anime wise. I just wish we get some news on Yuri On Ice movie. The Fans have been waiting for 6 years or more and I am really looking forward to the 2nd season of SK8.
You?
Why did they kill Neteyam!!! Why!!! How could they!!! I get that Loak and Kiri and also Spider are basically the main characters but how could they just kill Neteyam like that..... they should have at least waited till the next movie. Bad storytelling. It's like Killing Superman off in the movie he is first shown in or something along those lines. When they killed off Superman in BVS I was this disappointed with that movie too..... I could see it coming from a mile away and Neteyam's death was expected for the character growth of Loak.
But that's hypocritical of Neytiri. Isn't Jake one of those 'sky people' she hates?? What about Grace?? Hmm?? Spider is just a kid. She shouldn't have done that. I wouldn't be surprised if it comes to bite them in the butt when they least expect it. For now I am surprised Spider came back to them.
Exactly!!!!Them leaving would make the Omaticaya more vulnerable!!!! So many story loopholes that could be solved they paid a lil more attention to the script!
I wonder what Avatar 3 will be about. Air? Earth? Ooo Fire?? Ha ha maybe it can be named the Stigma of the Wind or something along those lines.
The best part of the movie for me is when the Kids were learning and exploring the Way of Water. Beautiful scenes. Very soothing in the way water tends to be.
More than Predator 2 I recommend Aliens (which is the part 2 of Alien). And if you can check out the Alien Isolation game. One of the best experiences I got to see.
T2 really set the standard sky high. But even back then I know not every movie is T2 and should not be compared in such a way. Some of my favorite non animation movies back then were Dunston checks in, Home Alone, Baby's Day Out.
I wonder why so many stuff are based on High Schoolers and High School setting but the High Schoolers don't really behave like High Schoolers or are acted by actors in their early to mid twenties. Why is it so popular??
Isn't it Levi on most of the the Ost's cover art?
Sango and Miroku are so sidelined in this anime. They have no part in it honestly... but Hisui is a good character. I just wish they made him a part of the new gang too but he's more of an recurring ally character and that's more than ok but Hisui is more interesting than Towa and therein lies the problem. Riku is great. Rion is an interesting character too. Such potential for all the new characters and the old ones.... look at this
Speaking of Yashahime. Kohaku is great in this you know? his character really feels like he has grown well and strong.
Well Inuyasha's mangaka Rumiko Takahashi did not write this anime and it shows. it's anime original and now Rumiko Takahashi started Yashahime Manga.
Yea DAI customization for Hawke are lack luster. Doesn't exactly look right like our Hawke from DA 2. At least the VA is the same.
Here's hoping 2023 is a good year for all of us!
明けましておめでとう!!!
𝒜𝓀𝑒𝓂𝒶𝓈𝒽𝒾𝓉𝑒 𝒪𝓂𝑒𝒹𝑒𝓉𝑜𝓊 ! ! !
________________________________________________
Hisashiburi desu ne. Hope you been doing well John-senpai !
I do missed those time when we used to have long random discussion 'bout anime & watching your romance recommendations hehe. How long has it been? 2 years? wow.
Wish you lots of success & happiness to come 2023!
(。・ω・。)
The script is the weakest point right? Though I did like the characters. Loak, Kiri, Spider had more screen time than the other kids but I really liked Neteyam too. I wish we got to see more of him before they killed him off... but man Neytiri really scared me in a good way of course. That expression she had when Jake tells her he needs her to stay strong because they need to save their daughters is just wow. That transformation was awesome. When she threatened Quartich "A son for a son" I really could feel the tension. I am glad Quartich cares for Spider. I liked those scenes and I wish we got more of them. Do you think Neytiri would have killed Spider if Quartich didn't let go of Kiri or if he was more ruthless?
At the end when Jake says a Father protects while hugging Spider and Loak. Oh man...
I just wish they strengthened the pacing of the story and the loopholes. Like leaving the Omaticaya didn't make sense. What if the Humans hunted them when they were vulnerable without Jake and Neytiri?? What if They needed Jake's knowledge of the humans to fight effectively? What if the Humans tortured them for information?? All those things kept going in my head as the movie went on. I was waiting for a scene where they show how the Omaticaya got hurt or how they were doing.
Oh Yes ofcourse how could I forget Spiderman 2. it too is better than Spidey 1 in most ways yet relatable even though we are not superheroes like Peter, an amazing villain and yes the Train scene is one of the most memorable scenes in cinema history. What do you think about Predator and the Alien movies?? Do you like them? You know Terminator 2 is one of my favourite movies and one of the first English movies I have watched as a kid which is not Disney.
Yayyy I am glad you are interested in Balance Unlimited!!! I am looking forward to your reactions! Yea Higashi no eden seems good. I watched ep 1 a few months ago but it has been on hold. I do wanna watch it! It gave me some Balance Unlimited vibes. not exactly but some more than that it reminded me of Bourne Identity.
Yea for some anime when we start it we may not like it or prefer it because it's just not the right time or age or mood. I don't know when I will watch Higashi no eden because I gotta watch it from scratch but before that gotta binge watch Franxx!!! My exams are till 12 or 13th I don't remember. I just gotta hang tight till then.
No ship name?? for Gale and Katniss?? What!!! Can't they atleast name them something like Kale.... wait isn't Kale a plant's name?? Nope they have one. I just googled it it's *drumroll* "Everthorne". Nice ring to it huh?
Everlark and Everthorne. You know Everlark sounds like a golden ebony coloured bird and Everthorne like a sliver plant with thorns which will look beautiful in winter.
ohhh so AOT wan't MAPPA?? Yea I heard about Eren. I also heard of a character called Levi? I think. Heard he is pretty popular. Never heard of Armin. Who did Season 1 of AOT? Not WIT or MAPPA? Btw have you ever watched Castlevania? What are your thoughts on it? It looks so interesting!!! Youtube recommended me that and also Justwatch. I saw the trailer. it gives anime vibes but I don't think it's Japanese.
YES!!! Kazuma was not your typical shounen protagonist right??? He was so self aware and cool. I guess Ayano took on that typical Shounen MC troupes. Which led to her character to grow and change as the story went on. Ren is just perfect!
Were you a Inuyasha fan or Sesshomaru fan?? Kagome or Kikyou?? I think you said Kagome right?
What was your opinion on SessRin ship?
If you won't watch Yashahime watch this too:- The ending of Yashahime 2
There is a sweet moment of Sesshomaru just holding his daughters faces as they were unconscious due to a fight. I can't find it!!! That's the closest to a hug we got in Yashahime. So see this instead. I adore their father-daughter bond so much. 1. 2. 3.
I am glad we got as many InuKagMoroha family moments as we got. Here's another one:- just look at Moroha!!! So precious!!! and this one
I really shared a lot of links haven't I... Oops! (⁄ ⁄^⁄ᗨ⁄^⁄ ⁄)
It'd be so cool if the show was just Moroha going on adventures with her parents, with Miroku's and Sango's kids, with her cousins, Shippo. I would love a show like that too.
That's the biggest drawback of this show no consistency in the powers these girls have. the only proper growth of powers was given to Setsuna. the other two. so disappointed. Moroha is so strong yet completely nerfed and finally when we get to see her show why she is Inunotaisho's granddaughter and how strong she already is, it is never addressed again!!!
Towa is OP all the time but so dumbed down!!!
Setsuna is the only consistent character they managed to write. Not OP but not made into a clown in her own show.
I feel like a comic character can be an MC of a show but should be shown the respect and dedication to their story and character arc without making them the butt of all jokes for no reason!
Fans were so annoyed by the middle of Season 1. They started hating Towa too for making her just this weak OP character. At first I really liked Towa but soon she started to become a pain to watch onscreen and Moroha is really the saving grace of the anime yet seeing the way she was treated was painful to watch too.
Most of the viewers love Moroha for a reason and it's not just because of Inuyasha and Kagome. Moroha herself is such a great character and gets along so well with everyone and is so sharp and intelligent and is so loyal and strong. She thinks on her feet, knows so much of the world around her, shown as hard working. How can you not like her!!! So I wished the studio did something about it after they got the response from the viewers. And with that I will end my already long rant. Ha ha (´∀`;)
What?? The game didn't let you redesign them?? I remember customizing Hawke.... I don't remember what World state I had.... was it default or not...
Another year passed so quickly... How was 2022 for you? It was alright for me. Not as good as I hope but not too bad either.
Also do you celebrate Christmas? If you do, Merry Christmas. Some do here in India but not most of us. Though we all do get a holiday so it's kinda a mini festival/day off for everyone.
Seen Avatar yet? I saw Avatar 1 two times. Though never got to experience it in IMAX 3D. We don't have one here. Otherwise yea it was incredible. It's like going into a whole new world and the script isn't too complex or weak to bug you out from the world you are experiencing.
That's why I have so many mixed feelings with this movie. They did some things a lot of justice and some things are a disaster which didn't have to be one. Then again I am looking forward to hearing your thoughts on this movie.
Are you the type of person who can ignore the strength of a script(bad writing) to enjoy the rest of the movie or even though the rest of the movie is bad because it has a good story you can like it? For me I think I give more weight to the story but not too much. As long as it doesn't have too many loopholes I wouldn't mind switching off the logical side of my brain at times to enjoy the scene the story wanted to get to.
It's too bad though, Terminator 2 and Aliens were such fantastic sequels both expanding the world the first part showed and the characters and their journey all the while introducing the children characters in such an effective way and strengthening Ripley and Sarah Conner.
Also the Antagonist is also so well done. The Terminator and The Alien are still a major threat that may not take our leading ladies by surprise but are still a threat which they got to prepare to face properly and save their kid.
Yea as soon as my exams are done I'll resume watching it and i will msg you about it.
Balance Unlimited really took me by surprise. I just started it very randomly. It's not something I usually watch. I don't remember why/how I was intrigued by it enough to start it but now I really like that genre so looking for any such anime out there. I wanna watch Higashi no Eden because it kinda feels like it belongs in that type of world you know? Have you seen it?
Yep that's what I thought. You like the OP. I like the OP more than ED but I really like the ED too. I love singing both so much while butchering the Japanese parts in the ED ha ha.
Hey this is random but have you ever heard or seen a Kdrama called "Goblin"?
Thank you ♡^▽^♡
Let's continue to talk about ships we do ship together and those we don't as well.
That's a good word:- Earned Romance. It's so much more romantic than a love at first sight. They grow to love each other because of all the relationship they build together.
Awww I am so happy Everlark is growing on you. (o´▽`o) I just adore when Katniss addresses Peeta as 'her boy with bread'
IS there any such nickname for Gale and Katniss? I know Gale calls her Katnip. That's honestly so cute.
Mikasa is one of the Main Characters right? I don't watch any AMVs for AOT for that very reason and definitely avoid the comment section no matter how tempting to read people's thoughts on the songs and themes. To avoid spoilers. Also AOT is Mappa right?? Mappa seriously such amazing Animes!
Yea at least we have one season of KNS. So Ayano or Kazuma or Ren?? Who is your favourite? Is it Kazuma?? For me it was Kazuma though it was very close with the other two. I really love Ren and Ayano too. Ayano changed so well in the anime, gone are her ideas about pride and Kannagi name at the cost of her life because of Kazuma. Ren has always been balanced. It broke my heart when he had to lose Ayumi just like his brother had to lose Tsui Ling.
I wish there was more of Kazuma and Ren interacting. Something that hinted at Tsui Ling back then. Or was there? I don't remember now.
Inuyasha Dub is one of the best and it's sequels is just alright. Well I was surprised to get a Dub in the first place but I prefer the Sub over Dub for this one.
Just look at this scene!!! She is a perfect mix of them isn't she! She even sits like her dad, so cute. Also that music! Kagome's theme playing in the background.
Moroha's character is so much more interesting than the twins. A person born from a Human with Spiritual powers and a Half Demon whose father is a Daiyoukai. She is probably the only person who can use both Spiritual energy and Demonic Energy and they ended up severely under utilizing her and nerfing her powers. Heck Kagome and Inuyasha combined their powers more than Moroha even thinking of using both powers as one power or something along those lines.
Have you seen this scene? It's adorable how Moroha is sleeping on her dad's back and look at Inuyasha talking to his nieces. I feel like all three girls will have a great bond with both Inuyasha and Kagome.
Oh and Did you watch the final battle in Season 1? It's a really good watch. They actually did justice, not only to Moroha but also Towa in this one battle. Just look at this scene and tell me can anyone expect anything less than an epic anime out of watching this one scene alone. And that howl when Toga appeared behind Moroha
Never brought this up again in any of the scenes how Moroha and InunoTaisho are connected in some way. Even Myoga was talking about how much more similar Moroha's blood tasted in comparison to her grandfather's and we get nothing from it! Nothing!! UGH!!! Such a waste. and look at Towa. Looks like Sesshomaru and his mother right??? How did they not use this magnificence in season 2??? How!!! UGH!!!!
You met Hawke??? Awesome isnt' it! I know there is a quest with them so we know it's possible to make Hawke in the model we created them to be.So it's possible to have our MCs in DA 4. I really hope we get to have all 3 of them in DA 4. I really do, it's to that scale. The Antagonist of this game threatens all of Thedas like in DA 3.
No, there is a new Lead character for DA 4. It's spoilerish territory. So I won't say much or show you the trailer. They are from Tevinter and it's specifically mentioned that they have no magic hand. So not the Inquisitor.
I am glad you think so. I spent a lot of time on it. I hope they like those suggestions. I am so looking forward to the gift I will get too. I will let you know what suggestions I got.
What bothered me is the story strength and the last battle and at times I felt a drop in the quality of the scenes in the 2nd half. I do like this movie but not because it brought something new to the table or because it mesmerized me like Avatar 1 did but because of the children and seeing them learn the way of water and interacting together and their journeys.
I will recommend it to people who did love Avatar 1 like I did but if they were neutral or didn't like Avatar 1 then Avatar 2 will not win them over.
Watching it in the Theater is really a must. Don't expect a new story either. It felt like Avatar 1 story but with a Navi instead of a human learning something new and adapting to a new lifestyle.
The person teaching the ways of water is definitely more patient and tolerant compared to Neytiri ha ha. We can easily match the new characters and their roles to the old ones from Avatar 1 and they didn't sideline Jake and Neytiri too much to make them irrelevant to the plot.
If anyone says Avatar 2 is bad then that's not true in fact far from truth but it's not as great as the first one. In the end though I am looking forward to Avatar 3. I am very curious about the lives of the kids and how much more Pandora can offer in terms of world building. All in all had fun. Not a waste of money but a little disappointed too... mainly due to the 2nd half. So it's not a total letdown...only little bit of a letdown. I just wonder why they couldn't use some of the budget for a stronger and better story which could properly show the world building James Cameron clearly focused on but also succeed in giving us an engaging story with smoother dialogues.
It could have been perfect you know. The Sequel, and that's what bugs me.
Hope you get what I am trying to say with my rant. I feel like I am not being clear enough.
I am not gonna spoil anything! Just watch it in 3D. Trust me. This movie really does the 3D part justice. Most of the movies I felt like they release it in 3D just like that and didn't shoot the film to really utilize the 3D tech. This one is best to watch it in 3D.
Yes! Yes of course Another! That's in my watch list too. We did talk about it when we talked about you Pro Pic. I really have so many anime to watch but first I gotta finish Darling in Franxx and of course I wanna see why Spice and Wolf is well loved by you and the rest of it's fans.
Hmm... maybe there is a certain charm to some of the older ones but only some of them... most of the anime I watched are just so slow and low in quality, that I started to avoid them if I could help it.
Soooo does that mean Balance Unlimited is now added to your watchlist???? o(≧∇≦o)
Wait I thought you didn't like the YOI Ed much since you don't like that style of music??
Harem and Love Triangles usually end up really dropping the quality of a story and shows generally lose their way on what made them interesting. It's usually a cheap trick to show the MC is desirable and not really have a proper arc to truly make them desirable.
It seriously is so refreshing to be able to talk to you about not only the ships we have in common but also the ships we don't. It's too bad how people usually end up getting personally offended if you try to explain why we like our ship better than theirs. Shipping wars sometimes feel like real wars. *shudders*
I am happy we met! o(〃^▽^〃)o
You know I used to love talking to my mom about Team Edward and Team Jacob too. Doing that in my school with my school friends was a mistake. Yikes! It's scary how passionate both Teams were back then.
Yeah!! I agree with what you say. Not every love story has to be love at first sight or even because they are attracted to each other's personality or hate each others guts. Sometimes it's what they live through together that brings people together. The Trust and Comfort these two have after all they went through. The peace they finally get to have even though sometimes Katniss still wakes up from nightmares and Peeta still gets flashbacks due to the aftereffects of the venom. They make it work because they are each others life boat and each others strengths.
Yea at first I wondered when did Peeta act like that. Then I understood you were talking about the attempted suicide part.
So AOI is more Action oriented but when it gets dark it gets really dark. Yea I figured it'll keep on the edge of my seat. I am partial to Mikasa already because of listening to this theme song right after I heard Reluctant Heroes. This piece of music is really too good! I get so energized listening to this!
The EDs and OP of KNS are really great and the EDs show how much brighter Ayano and Ren make his world. He just has to open his eyes to see them right in front of him or by his side ready to pick him up. He's not alone.
I kinda do like Kazuma's backstory. It makes so much sense why he is the way he is because of how dark and unhappy his childhood and teenage life has been. He's just 21 I think and already been through too much. No wonder he is so harsh at first. I bet deep down he doesn't want his heart to let any more people in to protect himself but Life had other plans.
Makes me wonder how amazing the rest of the story could have been.
Yea The Audio sounds weird... I actually watched a couple of eps of Season 1 in Dub and then realised I prefer the sub even though I prefer Inuyasha Dub over sub. The Sub is better for each of the girls too since it suits their personality more. The best part about this scene is Inuyasha calling Moroha his baby!! My heart! (´□`)ノ♡
Towa and Kagome being Niece and Aunt is very cute too.
They already ... Wait how far did you say you were in DA 3? Did you yet meet a certain someone? two certain someones from the previous games??
You don't know yet how truly impactful it will be for the Inquisitor to be a major supporting character or a companion in DA 4. Even if we don't get them as a companion. I need them as a major supporting role who helps the MC of DA4 and will be a friend to them. Will be a part of the DA 4 storyline.
Exactly!!! Groot head feels off with his shoulders! What happened!! Teen Groot's head was bigger.
Ha ha ok ok. Their likes were BL, Sports, Shounen, Romance, Supernatural, Action, Comedy. They wanted something like Sasaki to Miyano, Horimiya, AOT, Banana Fish, Haikyuu, Given etc and absolutely disliked Love Polygons, Harem and Hentai. I was like "YES!!! Someone after my own heart!!" then suggested:- Drumroll please!!!
1) SK 8
2) Gekkan Shojo Nozaki Kun
3) Busou Renkin
SK 8 was definitely gonna get recommended because of the sports and implied BL. They also loved Banana Fish which shows they have a high chance of liking this one. Renga is OTP material and the Skaters Family feels is best Found Fam/Nakama feels.
I was wondering whether to recommed Shikimori san or Nozaki kun when i realised they already has Shikimori san in their Plan to watch list. So I suggested that they could watch that for Horimiya feels and the more focus on Romance. TO watch Nozaki kun for more Comedy and Otaku feels like in Sasaki to Miyano.
Last but not least I was gonna recommend KNS but then I saw they loved Tokyo Ghoul so I recommended Busou Renkin. Which is Shounen, Romance, lil Comedy and good Action with a good story and likeable leads. It has monsters like in Tokyo ghouls which are not just monsters. People who are part of them and who are against them. I got interested in Tokyo Ghoul because it gave similar feels to Busou Renkin.
I added Seiken Tsukai to my plan to watch list. It's interesting their powers coming from their past lives. I could give it a watch someday.
Yea I can see the popularity of Dusk Maiden. I do love Horror. I couldn't find horror anime like Ghost Hunt ever! It was my first Horror Anime and damn good one. So I was searching for Horror anime when I came across Psychic Detective Yakumo, Dusk Maiden and GoSick.
I usually don't prefer older animes but I could see how well loved Cowboy Bebop. So I added that to my watchlist too. Also you say you like it! So Yep definitely added to my watchlist. Do you like older animes?? Do you prefer newer ones? I genereally tend to not watch anime which are older than the year 2000
Balance Unlimited ED is also good! I really like it! This is a good fun anime to watch. I wish it was longer. I would love to watch some 50 eps of Haru and Kanbe just being the best Partners solving crimes together.
Our Villainess is not only adorable but a smart cool FL.
Ohhh I get what you mean it's sad to see Canon couples whose relationship we just can't buy. Especially when it's a Main couple. This used to happen to me a lot when watching Kdramas. Most of them have a 2nd ML who is so much better than the 1st ML, who treats the FL so much better than the 1st ML and who is equally talented and cool as 1st ML but also likable. Everytime I watch such anime, I am like 'Here we go again, I will ship the FL with the 2nd ML and get the 2nd Lead Syndrome all over again' That's why these days I avoid every piece of media which has a love triangle!!!
The Non-Love Triangle stories tend to have a stronger healthier believable and ever rootable Canon Couple!
Yep My mom shipped Bella and Jacob so much. She kept saying though she likes Edward as an individual, For Bella it was always Jacob. Who was there for her and healed her heart and apparently just loved her so much. Apparently Jacob gives her a warm vibe... and no matter what I said though she didn't hate BellaXEdward and even was neutral to that pairing, she just didn't get them.
It makes sense too for us to not be completely on board with Peeta and Katniss. Like I said it's not just plain attraction or just like each other for their character and getting along together. It's so much more than that for these two and Katniss most of the time doesn't want to fall for Peeta because he was the Boy with Bread for her. He was the light in her life like Prim. She is terrified of loving him and losing him. Gale is something she gets in my opinion. They are cut from the same cloth. The Childhood friends who are so in sync and who know each other so well. Like I said they would have made a good couple together.
It's just Peeta and Katniss just feel so right after everything they have been through together and individually.
Wait Peeta wasn't shocked or against Katniss shooting Coin there. Everyone knows who Coin is and what her agendas are as a Leader. Peeta was against even suggesting the Hunger Games like Coin did. No he was the way he was in that scene because he discovered Katniss trying to commit Suicide by taking the Poison capsule and went to stop her.
I suppose AOT is dark right? Deaths and circumstances? I bet it has great action and emotion. Kazuma's soft corner is his little brother and I adore it. Just look at this scene!! The first two clips and also the 5th Clip. Look at that look on Kazuma's face. That's the proud face of a big brother! Though I wonder why he tested Ren like that, maybe to make Ren stronger? He was saying something about synchronizing with the Spirits of Fire. And then he started caring for Ayano too! His only reasons for really sticking around the Kanagi Fam: Ren and Ayano.
He really doesn't have to help the Kanagi Family in any way after what they did to him. He was just a kid when he was kicked out after all the grueling training he went through, the pressure, the emotional damage he had to suffer. God. There is a reason he is the way he is. He finally found happiness with Tsui Ling and then she was brutally torn from him and then when he was about to die his powers awakened. The guilt, the pain I can't imagine what Kazuma felt after Tsui Ling's death.
Speaking of that I love this scene! 1:19 to 3:13 Just look at Ayano in this scene! You can see how she will one day will be a great leader. Ah I love when she said "I'm willing to bet Enraiha on it!"
On that note one of the best endings:- Kns ED . Reminded me of Inuyasha's Come my Way
I started watching Death Note and then gave up. I guess I wasn't ready for it 10 years ago. My cousin recommended it. I should try it again. Maybe I will like it now.
The Balcony scene!!!! It's so good! I love the white colour use in that scene. I also really like Romeo's mom in this. She has been through a lot. Her scene with Juliet just hit me in the feels.
Romeo and Juliet flying away on the Pegasus was so beautiful. That scene was right out of a Fairy Tale.
Hmm then I should watch Spice and Wolf after Franxx. Ok!
Animax dub is so bad that it's funny ha ha. Maid Sama animax dub wasn't the worst you know? I haven't seen Maid Sama actual dub.
I know right! Mage feels canon in every DA game. I hope we get to see the Inquisitor in DA 4 as a major supporting character!
Guardians 3 after they lost their Gamora. Can't wait to see how this Gamora will be and also how Rocket's friendship with Nebula will be since they mourned together for 5 years and travelled together. didn't like Groot design that much... this time around....
I haven't done a MAL event before either. Never found the time but this one sounded like it could be fun and as a Secret Santa I got to suggest 3 animes to someone who also likes the genres that I do. So yea.
I also really like Requiem!! Dusk Maiden of Amnesia is actually in my watchlist. I heard it's good. What's your opinion of the anime? Is it horror?
The Real Folks Blues the link didn't work so listen to this oneIs it the one you wanted me to hear? It feels like a music a detective story will have. It really does feel unique. Not what I expect from a typical Anime OP or ED.
Seriously love them all!! I added all 3 to my list. I haven't seen any of the three.
I am adding Cowboy Bebop to my plan to watch list!! It sounds like it'll be fun. Though it looks like it's an older anime. What do you think about the animation?
Now I wanna share two osts I really like:- Try listening to them and tell me your opinion.
1) Balance: Unlimited OP
2) I'm the Villainess so I'm taming the Final Boss ED
Yea I was never against shipping Gale and Katniss, I just ship Katniss and Peeta more. I usually love reading fanfic about them and also Haymitch post canon to the point they had kids. It's mentioned in the books how reluctant Katniss was to have kids because of how scared she can lose them like her sister by bringing them into this world. Peeta always wanted kids but he waited till Katniss was comfortable with it. I just wanna give them a big hug. They suffered too much. All of them did. I hate how Primrose died so suddenly. It was a shock to me. Why did she have to die?? And so suddenly too!
Why do you wanna be a Peeta Supporter? It's surprising. Most of the time I only meet people who are fixed with a ship and they fight for that ship no matter what. You are saying you'd like to instead of you don't mind to ship. Why? Because they are canon?
Hat's off to the Actor who pulled of Snow so perfectly!! Donald Sutherland huh?
Exactly!!! Gale wouldn't do that!! It just doesn't make sense. It's Coin who is responsible for that! Why is Gale getting blamed for it? Was it his idea?? I don't get it. Also what was Primrose even doing there?? How is she there?? How?? Was it also Coin's plan?? To bomb the Capitol's citizens and people like Prim?
Also this scene was so satisfying!!! After watching Prim die and watching those Bomb blasts! Watching Katniss shoot Coin as Coin says may your aim be true. Hah! Take that! Also man the look on Snow's face. He knows Katniss too well. That man doesn't fear death at all does he? Look at Plutarch's silent smile. Oh man.
I haven't watched Attack on Titans actually. I was searching for a song to listen to as I read Trash of Count's Family webtoon and searched for Reluctant Hero theme and AOT's Reluctant Heroes is first suggestion by Youtube! What a suggestion too! Absolutely what I wanted! AOT got added to my Watchlist and I blasted this song the whole day.
Yea not anymore. I used to talk to people in Fanfiction.net KNS had so much potential too but yea at least we got a proper ending and no cliffhangers. Sure we could have learned more about the Villain's Organisation and Lapis but at least we got a proper ending where all three are now a team who will fight against this organisation. Ayano will only grow stronger and both of them have acknowledged their feelings for the other at least to themselves. Ren's awesome and will only be more awesome and no need to say anything about how amazing Kazuma's storyline is.
So SAO huh?? Nice!! It really is an Anime that can spark people's interest! It was such a unique feel at that time. I never saw anything like it. Never knew that genre till then. Future Diary is in my watchlist!! You know someone actually told be it's a lighter version of Death Note. Me knowing neither of them and what they are about was like huh? ok. ┐(°‿°)┌
Anime truly is something completely different! I agree! That's why I am such a fan of Animes even more than Kdramas!
Ohh I am happy to see you are interested in YOI now! \(^▽^)/
How's RomeoXJuliet coming along? I am kinda on hold now with Franxx. Will probably end up binge-watching it after exams. Aw man I wanna watch it right now but I gotta resist!
Ohhh so the movies left a stronger impression? I loved Silent Voice. I was a lil skeptical about how they will handle the relationship with the ex-bully and the person bullied but it was really believable. Everything! I had to give it a 10. It made me tear up too(;﹏;)
Is Spice and Wolf really that good? You mentioned it a couple of times. I never watched it and wasn't that interested with the summary or the picture in MAL so it's left in the Plan to watch list. Seeing how much you like it maybe I should give it a shot after Franxx.
Josee, the Tiger and the Fish is also in my watchlist. I remember seeing a clip in Youtube and really wanting to see it.
you actually found Inuyasha Animax dub? Where? Youtube? I even watched Maid Sama in Animax dub you know all the eps.
For DA3 fav character is definitely Dorian and Solas! It's always these mages and elves that get me with their backstories and conversations with the MC in all 3 DA games. My fav character in DA1:- Morrigan who is a Mage, DA 2:- Fenris and ok Varric too and fine I suppose Isabela as well since she is truly a treat to watch onscreen and most importantly Hawke themselves but Fenris is again an Elf, Hawke is always a Mage for me in Headcanon. DA 3:- Mage and Elven Mage! I wonder who I will end up loving in DA 4.
I am almost Finished with Moon Knight! It's seriously so good!! doesn't feel like an MCU product but it's own story and a good one at that! Just Ep 6 left!
Our Heroes are too scattered and don't feel a part of a whole yet also feel like they are forcefully being put in a whole that doesn't exist properly and that's the bummer.Also none of them have proper story arcs anymore. It's too bad really. I hope Phase 5 is better and yeah, we get a big payoff by the end like the Avenger film.
Saw the Guardians of Galaxy vol 3 trailer??
I don't remember Annie getting too much of attention in the books since we see the books through Katniss's eyes. It's her story and her pov that we read, that we experience Panem and Hunger Games.
Haymitch really is an Underrated Character! Love his arc and how much he started caring once again. Actually he cared too much at first and the capitol wanted to teach him a lesson and killed everyone he loved and that's why he became the way he did. He wanted to stop loving anyone for their sake and his own and then Katniss and Peeta came into his life!
You participating in the MAL Secret Santa?
Like the I told... unfortunately the movies don't sell PeetaXKatniss as well as the books do, they don't even make as much as impact as fanfictions do. Still I did like Katniss and Peeta even in the movies and I enjoyed Katniss and Gale moments as well. At one Point I even wondered whether romance was necessary in this story.
You remember this scene in Mockingjay part 1? Broke my heart... one of the best scenes in the series! Also how Haymitch came to care for Katniss. God my heart there. Katniss asking Did I lose them both in that..
Hey by the way not as a ship but as a person and story arc what do you think of Peeta?
You know I really didn't like the scene where Primrose dies and it's from Gale's bombs. I know Coin is responsible for that and not Gale but ugh! I don't think Katniss and Gale can reconcile from that at least for a few years.
Ooo do go on about your favourite anime OSTs. It falls under two of my fav topics to talk about:- Anime and Music. Special A has 5 pairs I think. My fav are of course MegumiXYahiro!! I don't think the anime has all 5 pairs. I think it has 4 of them. Yea. 4 of them. KeiXHikari, AkiraXTadshi, MegumiXYahiro and JunXSakura.
Do you like songs with vocals or instrumental?? You know this song?
Ohh I have been avoiding Angel Beats because I thought it was tragic. If it's Happy Cry then yea I can watch it.
A real fan of anime..... Inuyasha is really the one that made me interested in this medium but Anime as a whole... is kind of hard to say. I have been watching without knowing they are anime when I watched Inuyasha, Maid Sama, Busou Renkin, RomeoXJuliet. Then stopped watched when Animax was removed. Started watching Fairy Tail infrequently with very low quality because of low Internet speed. Watched Marmalade Boy and the old Fruit Basket. Then, Gakuen Alice and then Hayate ne Gotoku, Itazura na Kiss
But at that time I was more of a Manga reader than an Anime watcher. I was always on and off with anime and not particularly because it's anime and never actively searching for more anime. I knew about Anime by this point though.
I think I really started watching Anime because of Yuri On Ice. Like really actively started watching Anime and then Bungou Stray Dogs solidified me as an Anime fan.
No Wait It's Kaze No Stigma which made me interested in Anime and anime community!! Yea. Not my first anime but the anime which really won me over and made me recognise them as Anime but Yuri on Ice is the one that really ignited my love for anime and then Bungou Stray Dogs solidified it! So you could say Inuyasha- Kaze No Stigma- Yuri on Ice- Bungou Stray Dogs.
And for you??
Yea by the time the second ED came Moroha became a lil less of a comic character I think. not that great but a bit better. I just love the whole design of the visuals too in both ED 2 and OP.
NOPE! Not a cover at all! It's sung by Dean Fujioka and is the official OP of Yuri on Ice! This anime op really is something. It really has a special place in my heart. Whenever I feel down I listen to it! The ED is awesome too.
Both OP and ED Gives a unique feeling no other anime managed for me till now
I really hope you will watch Yuri On Ice and Bungou Stray Dogs one day not immediately of course but when you feel like it and love them as much I do. They really are something.
What are the animes that made you feel that way? That they really are something special.
RomeoXJuliet is actually the first official Dub I had the immense pleasure of watching followed by Kaze No Stigma. Inuyasha at first I watched the Animax dub version which is actually not that great and was so surprised by how well Inuyasha Dub really is!
Sera is seriously such a treat to watch. Her Party conversations are one of the best with everyone. Just see this XD
Yea too much of anything isn't good even if it is MCU comedy.
Yea exactly. take a horror aspect of RE 7 and the story aspect of RE 8 (and the world building) and voila perfect sequel. Then again there is already a DLC which is a sequel in a way/ I am watching it right now.
Thank goodness that Tom Holland's Spidey is part of the MCU and Sony can't reboot him all willy nilly. I wonder what the next movie will be like for this Spidey. I hope he will be in the next Avengers movie. By the way Phase 4 is apparently over and now onto Phase 5.... it doesn't even feel like a Phase is over. It feels barely started, even with so many movies and tv shows whereas Phase 1 with much less no of movies and no tv shows made such an impact and told an overarching story. It proves how much Quality is more important than the Quantity.
Even though Finnick didn't trust Katniss and Peeta, I love he doesn't really judge them and how they survived. He just saw it as a well done strategy, teased Katniss about it. I guess he was testing her and when he saw that it's not just a strategy and that they really do care for one another and that! that makes him trust them. I miss Finnick. How can you miss a fictional character.... I read so many fix its where he survived you know after the 4th movie.
Finnick dying to save Katniss and the others just....ugh he suffered so much and he couldn't get his happy ending!! At least we got to see him marry Annie. It's too bad he never got to meet his son.
YES! Finnick the true hero of the movies!!
What are your thoughts on Snow and Haymitch?? Snow is seriously one of the best and interesting villains in my opinion. Hunger Games is one of the only YAs actually done right, the movie adaptations especially.
