Hmm, i seem to be a no lifer with anime and once again, i got nothing to watch :| My interests in anime are mystery suspense, with death. Mirai Nikki is my favourite anime, so something similier to that would be amazing. I also liked Dangan Ronpa too, but not as much as Mirai Nikki.

Please give your suggestions :D

Myst 12-16-2014 08:08 AM

wow i look at an 2015 anime chart, one anime in particular stands out and looks excellent simply from cover art alone, then i see tags : yaoi ;-;

Ooo i too enjoy this genre, i recommend gantz (preferably manga but the anime is mkay), Dead man wonderland, Battle royale (manga), Kara no kyoukai, cage of eden (manga)

Deadman Wonderland's anime is ****.

Akame ga Kill fits with the Mirai Nikki genre, except it's **** in the end, just like Mirai Nikki so you should be okay with it.

Devil Survivor 2 fits with it too, few quirks, but solid. There's also Guilty Crown, which goes to **** after episode 12/13.

Black Lagoon is also a solid choice, Jormungand at that too.

Deadman Wonderland is interesting, but the anime is a horrible adaption.

I like SAO. I accept SAO's huge flaws. I've said this plenty of times, just like the rants I've done on the flaws.

I love Mirai Nikki, I marathoned it in one night and bought the DVDs.

I really loved the first half of Guilty Crown. Second was very subpar compared to it.

I already mentioned that I'm probably going to get Akame ga Kill's blu rays.

Anything else you wanna tussle with? If not, **** off with your ignorant remarks.

Edit; You've actually got me to the point where I just spent the time of this post, to now, scoring the **** I've watched on MAL. **** you.

Everyone knows Esdeath would of won in reality. gg to Akame tho

Of all the shows that have a wide variety of ridiculous "who-the-****-would-even-think-of-that" superpowers and weapons, AgK is probably the only one where ice ability is the most over-powered. "oh I just waved my arm and now your whole army is encased in a huge wall of ice"

I much prefer the non-dubbed version of Black Lagoon. The characters' voices seem more natural.

Except when they actually speak in english. You can obviously sense their struggle.

that's so not true, you only think this because you most likely can't understand japanese and you can't truly here the expression in there words, only the way they speak a word.

Do you speak Japanese fluently? The dub works better in series like Black Lagoon because it fits better. It's more natural.

No i don't, however dub also sounds better in cases where the the characters are Japanese, with sub the thing is if you don't understand japanese you can't really understand the way they are saying things, you only think about what they are saying by the tone in there voice.

Loving black lagoon so far, i love the way they empower women in this show.

Exceptions to every rule.

The reason why Black Lagoon's dub is better is because it fits. It doesn't matter how they're saying it because English fits three of the four characters that matter the most; Revy, Benny, and Dutch.

To say that Japanese characters in a Japanese setting sound better in dub because it's our main/second/whatever language is entirely false. We don't have the experience of growing up there, or some cases living there to understand their culture. Not to mention it's their native language. See Date a Live's horrendous dub work for an example.

Black Lagoon works because of the characters, Baccano because it's in America. Others, because the dub work is actually really good, FMA.

Most of the characters (except Dutch) sound too squeaky when dubbed.

That's just how I think, there's very few actually good dubs out there...

Fair enough.

and a smaller amount of that, that actually surpasses the Japanese VAs.

Myst 12-17-2014 05:02 AM

Who would win in a death battle, all of the Black lagoon crew+ allies, or the jormungand crew+allies?

GlazeyB 12-17-2014 06:25 AM

Jormungand would.

Black Lagoon is just filled with untrained people, while most of Jormungand has some form of military training.

yep. Revy's Engrish takes the gold trophy. pretty cringe-worthy there in the last few episodes.

nonononono. I absolutely do not do dubs. even if its good, non-annoying voice acting, i cant stand it when its obvious the translation is way off and the words still dont hardly match the lips. I watched a few FMA:B dubbed because the website had random missing subbed episodes. It was endurable, but still obvious the translation was stretched horribly.

I really enjoyed the second season of Chuunibyou. The rating and cover scared me at first, but I actually enjoyed the anime much more than I was expecting. Call me a high rater, but I'd give it a 9/10. It had me smiling and laughing a lot throughout the whole thing and that to me makes a great anime. A season 3 would be awesome if they could keep the quality of the anime going.

Myst 12-19-2014 03:19 AM
