=OO I got into looking at who did voice acting for random anime today. I found lots of cool stuff.

Mamoru Miyano: http://myanimelist.net/people/65/Mamoru_Miyano

He worked on Chihayafuru (Taichi), Eureka 7(Moondoggie), InuxBoku SS(Natsume!), Soul Eater (Death The Kid), Vampire Knight (Zero), Wolf's Rain (Kiba), Steins;gate (Okabe), Durardura(Kida), etc.

I just think it's fun to find out that Death the Kid is the same voice as Zero and Kiba XDD.

I'm pretty much out of the anime circuit at the moment, so I don't know many of the newest Seiyuu (I do know Mamoru Miyano from Wolf's Rain and Ouran High School Host Club, though). But I still love everything that has to do with voice acting, in anime, video games and movie/series dubs. It's one of my oddest hobbies, I'll admit, but I just love hunting down voices that I like. Sometimes, I will even watch/play something just because it has my favourite voice actors in it. xD It was the case with Saiyuki, for example. I just love Toshihiko Seki as Sanzo, and Akira Ishida is one of my top three favourites. <3

Notice> Akira Ishida is in Kamisama hajimemashita <3

My Favorite anime:
K Project
Naruto Shippuuden
Air Gear
Gintama
Fairy Tale
D. Gray Man
BLOOD+
Soul Eater
Devil May Cry
Full Metal Panic!
....and more, just ask

I love action anime haha

Not an anime nerd persay, but I do like the occasional one. heres a list of the ones im watching currently and on my fav list in no particular order

Evangelion
Katanagatari - just started watching
Soul Eater
I was a huge mecha fan for a while
I just started reading a mature manga the other day its prolly not allowed in here so I wont name it but its hilarious.

I haven't gotten many suggestions for next weeks anime viewing!!! You can also make discussion questions if you like.

Make sure to send me this form with your suggestion along with a picture:

Spoiler:

Haven't watched a lot of anime lately, but some of my favorites would have to be:

Juuni Kokki (The Twelve Kingdoms)-I've read the first two novels and seen probably the first twenty-ish episodes? Excellent art and story.
Wolf's Rain
Miyazaki films in general
Grave of the Fireflies- made me ball like a little child. Several times.
Noir
Akira
Ghost in the Shell and its sequel
Appleseed
Record of Lodoss War
Berserk
A Tree of Palme

There's others, but my mind went blank. ^^; Tenchi Muyo, Outlaw Star, and the like come to mind, but it's been ages since I've seen those.

I know there's a few Touhou fans here, just recently found this fan made anime for Perfect Cherry Blossom. Released in 2011, considering it's fan-made and completely free; I am beyond impressed by the quality of the video It's better than most professionally made anime with budgets several times greater!

Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2l6P4eKWFTI

For those not familiar with Touhou, it's a vertical scrolling bullet hell game series created by one man with a persistent world. Well know for it's soundtrack and amazing amount of great fan made content available, almost like a sub-culture with in a sub-culture lol.

I don't really consider myself a fan of the game series, just really liked some of the stuff came out of it

Iv seen WAAAAY to many animes of all genras

Hmm idk what to say in this topic.

While I love the opening, shouldn't it be more suit for The Embodiment of Scarlet Devil?

Yup, I totally agree with you Po; that throw me off too at first lol. It does include the other characters from other touhou releases as well though, just seem to be more focused on Scarlet Devil due to the few action scenes.

A long fight scene with Remilia vs Reimu & Marisa would of been awesome =w=

Chuunibyou demo Koi ga Shitai!

Heres my top 10:
1. Samurai X: Trust and Betrayal
2. Great Teacher Onizuka (There is also a live action)
3. Katekyo Hitman Reborn
4. Death Note
5. Gundam Seed Destiny
6. Code Geass
7. Basilisk
8. Eyeshield 21
9. D Grayman
10. Sword art online

Not just the action scenes but the whole red mist blocking the sun totally hints toward Scarlet Devil as well.

And also, more Sakuya's action pls

Actually I was confused by that scene with Sakuya for a while until I read up on her abilities, all those knife just seem to "pop" out of no where; but if you know what her skills are already, that scene is pretty badass XD

That's news to me And it would totally make sense, have seen some debates about where she got all those knifes from. But just imagining that... Lol so funny...

Spoiler:

Ain't it a common issue with all characters with that ability? xD

Anyway, Sakuya is definitely one of my fav Touhou girls, along with Youmu and Koishi <3

Wait a minute! Where is Koishi in that video???

They included her in one of the PV for Subterranean Animism if that counts Btw Yuugi in that same PV is awsome in the few seconds of fight scene against Reimu

I'll continue this conversation via pm if you want, don't want to hijack this thread and turn it into a chat about Touhou XD

And back on topic, I had a fun time watching that show lol. Speaking of which; I need to finish watching it... >_<

My fave anime!:
Bleach
Claymore
Soul Eater
Death Note
SAO
Shippuden

I can't believe I didn't know about this thread until now...

Quote :

po and aszutai talking about Touhou

I'm a Touhou fan too...

Anyway, the last anime I actually enjoyed watching was Madoka. Every season after that has been mostly dull, with a few shows that were OK but not something I would place in my favorites list. SAO started off great for me, but I just couldn't stand it by the end. Something about Kirito just started to bug me.

My favorites are:
Madoka
Nanoha A's
Gundam X
Shin Mazinger
Hayate no Gotoku
Nichijou

Guess I should announce my "obvious" anime nerdiness as well here XD

hmmm let's think about it; it's hard to give it a ranking, just like them all I guess

1. Nichijou (ooooh yeah)
2. Gintama
3. Kanon 2006
4. Seitokai Yakuindomo
5. Gundam (mostly referring to the U.C. Era ones for the Gundam nerds here =P)
6. Sacred Seven (Cheap, really cheap... but... damn the main chara is just badass x))
7. Sora no Otoshimono
8. Lucky Star
9. Rantaro (hehehe being old school here P=)
10. Strike Witches ( <<; sigh just can't get enough of you Shimada-Sensei)

The list goes on and on, but as I've seen people only put 10 up here so yeah, same will be for me in that case P=

Summary about me: a hopeless 24/7 otaku ever since the early 90s most likely triggered by Rantaro, Samurai Pizza Cats, Goldfish Warning and the usually mainstream thingies from the 80s, 90s, up till today ~~;

Talking about what I am watching now hmm... the shows running right now...
and when it comes to older stuff, right now busy with Michiko to Hatchin

Hey everyone! Decided to look around the forums for something other than trades and i found this thread. Nice to see other fans

I guess my tastes have been pretty mainstream. Watching/reading Bleach, FMA, and all that shonen stuff. Slice of life is good too. Can't really rank shows, it's all good.

Gurren Lagann (so much GAR)
Eyeshield 21 (yukimitsu )
Hajime no Ippo (that championship match. manly tears)
Slam Dunk
Initial D (ep 6 - FOREEVEEEEEERRRRR. so good.)
Cross Game
Genshiken
The Legend of Black Heaven (!!!)

Some of my favorites up there, but you know, I can't find enough people that like the best genre: GAMBLING!!!!

Akagi (mahjong mindgame Decent into Darkness)
Kaiji (written by the same guy that did Akagi)
One Outs (baseball mindgame goodness)
Liar Game

and if you're like me and can't get enough of mahjong:

Saki (lol.)
The Legend of Koizumi (oh man. you HAVE to watch it)

dang, I wanna play some mahjong now. you should PM me and we can get some Fantasica matches going on in tenhou. don't worry I'm terrible

Oh yeah agreed when it comes to Mahjong Animes XD
I would also name Akagi though

Hmmm Cross Game and Genshiken, XD I see similarities in our taste

Glad to see a fellow mahjong player! Maybe we should start a Fanta league
