Hey guys :)
Remember, directing players to other websites is unfortunately, not allowed. This is because of the potential security, and safety risk involved with it.
Although I'm sure you had no bad intentions, I've had to hide a post above for this reason.
Thanks,
~Robert

@Dynamic
I believe this is the episode where he has flashes of the past things he had done...? I might be wrong and if I go further into it will probably cause spoilers, there isn't much else to say. But I do forget a technical reason for it but just mentioning he is 'special'
Glad about thee ZnT 4 news if its true but sadly MM! creator died so a slim chance of that getting another season.

@Dynamic Hawk:
As usual, to tell you that would spoil something that occurs later down the track. You'll get the answer to that question in episode 32 (Kai episode 6).

@General conversation:
Ive never seen any of the Garden of Sinners movies, are they any good? Even though ive never seen them, i was tempted to buy the big, overly pricy $600 BD box while i was at supanova just because of the 'limited edition-ness' of it :P
Ill probably never see it becasue of my rule i follow that says i have to buy anything available with english subs if i watch it, but...
Subject of that rule, apparently Tiger & Bunny's japanese BD's are going to be getting the english subs treatment.
I like the show, but not enough to fork out for 9 BD's at the japanese price (about $630. Why do they never sub the series i WOULD pay that much for...) , does anyone know if anywhere else has it licensed for DVD/BD distribution in the US or Australia (so far, i haven't seen any word from its simulcast sponsors)...

@Regen: I know, but according to that the second movie should clear things up because it's chronologically the first movie right? Unfortunately nothing is explained either, I'm guessing you have to watch most of it to understand a bit of what's going on.
People are telling to understand it you should read the novels, but I think a movie where you would need to read a book to understand it is not a good movie. They should try to get new fans to the franchise, not scare them away. :P
Don't get me wrong, the movies aren't bad. The animation is amazing and the music is good as well. The only thing that I'm missing is a clear plot.
For example: you don't want to watch 7 Harry Potter movies where they don't explain anything only to learn in the 8th movie that he's actually a wizard which would explain his actions up to this point. ;) (Luckily the HP movies aren't like that. :P )

Yes, but this has nothing to do with Jagex, they aren't encouraging anyone to watch something they shouldn't. People themselves are responsible for what they watch. We don't allow hentai discussions in this thread but other than that I don't think there's anything wrong with discussing shows like Deadman Wonderland. As long as the discussion itself isn't offensive it won't be a problem.
If you look at all the movie discussion threads there are probably many movies mentioned that aren't for all ages. But like I said, people themselves are responsible for what they watch. You can't have a discussion in which you have to check the rating for every show you mention and you can't expect everyone to do that.
To get back to the subject of this thread: I'd love to know what your favorite anime are, Yami-san. :)

@TechEngineer
I'm just under a year to university entrance exams but i tend to stay awake past 2am so here goes :P
I watch almost all anime other than the ones which I know has a crappy storyline (as most animes are originally light novels). My most recent fav was probably madoka magica. 11 and 12 aired a few weeks ago after being delayed for a whole month due to the earthqake :) awesome show. It's animator company "shaft" had made many successful anime original stories in the past like hidamari sketch so i wasn't dissapointed.
Also im a fan of the toaru majutsu no index series and its anime which finished airing its 2nd season last month. The anime itself is only a small portion of the early parts of novels so we can expect a third season to air but Project Index's twitter stated they won't be making one this year :( Deadmans wonderland you mentioned of earlier is a pretty violent story, personally, its first impression will be totally different depending on wether you watch the anime before reading its novels or vice versa.
Wether an anime falls towards hentai or not is difficult to decide, Fortune Arterial's anime was made years after the visual game "Fortune Arterial" was which was a 18+ product but its anime was pretty original in comparison to the latter.
It'd take me a lifetime if i was to discuss my fav animes so until next time :)
btw if anyone has the guts to watch yosuga no sora past ep 3 be my guest. *evil grin*

Edit:
I felt it a shame all of you other than the Japanese residents on this thread rely on youtube uploads for anime though i can't push the matter further otherwise this thread wouldn't exist in the first place :| Ironic how frequently an anime is removed due to copyright depends greatly on the anime's budget and the will of the creator for example madoka magica is a Shaft original anime aka wasn't anime-fied from any manga or novel so they have 100% rights towards it. Look how fast it gets removed upon youtube upload :)

^Been there done that. I got about halfway through the Sora arc, then i got distracted by something else so i never did end up finishing it.
But yep, i think you and me will get on nicely, both anime you listed are in my top 10 (though personally, i did prefer the Railgun series to the Index series).

As for the whole piracy thing, im confident to say that most of us would go through legal channels if such things existed. Problem is we just dont have the quantity of anime available that you guys do.
