Maybe Sore ga Seiyu? It hasn't finished yet so I don't have a full opinion on it yet, but it's a decent enough perspective into the voice-acting side of the industry.

Reds posted:Yes, I keep meaning to buy the Nausicaa manga but I couldn't find it at the last con I went to. Most of the reason why I hadn't watched it was because I wasn't sure if I should read the manga first or not. I read the manga first, so the movie ended up kind of disappointing to me. Which I had a feeling about going in since the manga was so dense.

Reds posted:The conundrum for Nausicaa that I had was that I knew that the manga was better, so I wasn't sure whether to watch the movie first where I wouldn't get the "oh this isn't as good as the manga" feeling, but then I wouldn't be able to go into the manga without knowing anything about it. I'd say go movie first to avoid the this isn't as good as the manga feeling. Then go into the manga and be very surprised when things go a lot deeper than you expected.

Jimbot posted:Can anyone recommend a fun shounen show that's on Crunchyroll? I've seen HunterxHunter and Magi, both of which I liked. I still occasionally watch One Piece despite how much I think the pacing is rubbish. Jojo's fun too if you consider that shounen. I've seen enough of Bleach and Naruto to know that it's not really my thing. Gintama if you're up for something more comedic. Rurouni Kenshi is a classic if you haven't already seen it. Just stop after the Kyoto arc because there's nothing watching after Kyoto.

Captain Invictus posted:Yankee-kun And Megane-chan keeps showing up on the recommended series at the top of Kissmanga. I've heard lots of good things about it, but I have also heard that it ends incredibly poorly. Is this correct or am I misremembering the series people were saying that about? No gory details needed, just curious. It kinda just ends in a unsatisfying manner that is basically, and now we're going back to status quo. Entertaining series though other than the lame ending.

Yeah, Darker than Black s1 is decent as a self-contained story. Anything after that isn't that great other than occasional decent action setpieces.

My only issue with the gaiden is that it basically sets up s2. S2's problem is that its story is just kind of a mess, and basically ends in an open-ended manner with plot hooks for a theoretical s3.

Admittedly, the resolution makes a lot more sense in the visual novel format than it does in the anime, mostly because it basically acknowledges all the various replays that you'd have to do to get the ideal ending, but the anime does a decent enough job.

AfricanBootyShine posted:How many episodes should I watch to get a good feel for it? I just forced myself through the first episode, and it feels like a product of a random shounen generator. It's hard to say, because the show goes through some large shifts and introduces new elements with each new arc. Like what a lot of people love is HxH's nen system, and it isn't properly introduced until 30 episodes in, and even then, it doesn't get really creative until the next few arcs where it gets more developed. Despite that, I also really loved the Hunter exams at the beginning as well, cause it's a fun set of tests that are themselves fairly creative and show off the scope of that world.

Yeah Fate/Zero basically spoils the big twists of F/SN's 1st and 3rd route. Also of note is that Fate/Zero's plotlines don't actually have any completed animated follow-up yet other than the 2006 adaptation which is a messy version of the 1st route. UBW focus's more on Shirou/Archer stuff and kills off the fate/zero plot threads, so it's somewhat disconnected (though still important in setting up plot elements in Heaven's Feel). Heaven's Feel's first movie did finally come out, so the proper conclusion to both Fate and Zero is eventually coming out.

3 plots, alchemist, train, and the sister looking to find out about her brother. Each are a year apart. The opening and closing episodes are just characters trying to frame the story as they try to organize it, but they're only tangentially connected to the sister's plot in that they're part of the newspaper that she ends up going to for help.

Capital Letdown posted:So far I'm not really getting grabbed by Haikyu. I'm on the seventh episode, so I don't know if it'll start to grab me more. It hasn't focused a ton on the training aspect as much (it did a little bit before they started the first 3 on 3 match), does it get into it more in the future? I'll stick with it if there's a certain threshold of episodes where it tips a certain way. There’s a certain point where haikyuu just becomes amazing. Also there’s more training in the future. They haven’t even assembled a full team yet where you’re at nor have they met their main big rivals so I say keep going at it since you’re still in the building the team phase.

Neddy Seagoon posted:Brotherhood does have one very minor failing in that it skips over a small manga arc that the first show adapted which introduces a fairly-regular secondary character in the mid/late parts of the show. He just kinda pops into existence complaining about those damned Elric Brothers not letting him get away with his Scooby Plans in his past. Sure, but you'd have to ignore certain homonculus characterizations and a few character deaths in the original if you go that route. Like I'm pretty sure they killed off that secondary character in the original anime
