Anime is made better by being even more over the top. Also has better pacing. Watch the dub for glorious Brad Swaile ham.

Also has a pretty solid soundtrack as well. There's not that much different between the manga and anime so go with the anime.

Fair enough then. I'm in luck too since they just re-released the entire series last November so I can get it all super cheap compared to what I would have had to fork out getting the old sets.

I really, really like the ballroom dancers manga, but I really hope the male characters gets some comeuppance for treating the female characters like tools.

Death Note is pretty cool if you watch to the end of the first "season" and then watch a cut scene on youtube, and pretend that's the ending.

It's not crap. But the ending was botched. Death Note Ending spoilers N and M only "won" because The dude who had otherwise listened and followed Lights orders perfectly and exactly decided to break that blind faith randomly and without being forced to. It just felt cheap to me.

Frankenstein Dad posted:I really, really like the ballroom dancers manga, but I really hope the male characters gets some comeuppance for treating the female characters like tools. Yeah, that bugs me too. It feels like the female characters are only there because they are required to in order for the ballroom dancing setting to work. They're never portrayed as skillful dancers (like the male characters are), but as desirable dance partners. That said, this is a shounen manga, so I doubt we're going to see any morality lessons about gender equality.

The ending to the Death Note movies is way better than the actual manga. No N and M, and L wins by writing himself into the Death Note to die 30 days later, thus making it so other Death Notes won't work on him. I can't remember the rules of the Death Note in the manga to know if that would work or not. RatHat fucked around with this message at 06:01 on Feb 24, 2015 |

The manga never has a similar case but that rule seems like a fine reaper rule to prevent yoinking.

I finished Biscuit Hammer, and I gotta say that I found the ending pretty drat fulfilling. It wrapped things up nicely, and the second last chapter was shounen as gently caress in a really cool way.

If you haven't already pick up Spirit Circle, it was close for a while but I'd say it's currently a better overall work than Biscuit Hammer. There was a new chapter of that burning girlfriend mystery manga I posted about earlier: Haru no Houtai Shoujo 16 What a twerp. Still think that the dude is a red herring, or at least wasn't responsible for the fire that killed that girl's family.

Squidster posted:It's well executed and fun, but SY is much more 'safe' manga. It's an Inuyasha knockoff in generic magical feudal japan, but the solid characters and lively illustration do lift it up. It only really came into it's own once it bumped off its not-Inuyasha and switched protagonists. Yeah I agree, the second half is much better than the first.
