Seeing pencil keys is so cool - it helps you appreciate the amount of work and detail that go into each frame of animation. Maybe not something you think about when it's fully coloured, alive and telling you a story.
In a way the the pencilled fram...
Had to vote for Bebop. It's got killer music, killer style, and is one of my top anime.
Here are a few others that I like who haven't been mentioned yet:
Puella Magi Madoka Magica - The OP is not on YT so here's a great piano cover of the full son...
Perhaps her glasses need to be altered a bit so they stand out more. When I first glanced at the image, I thought she was puffing out her cheeks, and it looked odd, until I noticed it was merely the bridge of her glasses. Her mouth is a tiny little...
I picked Evangelion, here's my more rounded list:
Neon Genesis Evangelion (shounen)
My Neighbor Totoro (Miyazaki)
Cowboy bebop (the work which becomes a new genre itself)
Cardcaptor Sakura (mahou shoujo)
Azumanga Daioh (slice of life)
I believe the sauce you're looking for is http://www.amazon.co.jp/gp/product/images/B002J8C8EM/sr=8-13/qid=1268507055/ref=dp_image_0?ie=UTF8&n=561956&s=music&qid=1268507055&sr=8-13
unless you knew that already and wanted a better sauce.
Anyway, I a...
Agreed. I guess I agree with everyone else that the special effects are amazing, but when they start saying "movie of the year", I wonder what else they see in the movie. I didn't think the story was all that interesting and just reminded me of a b...
Yeah it's funny that he says that the tall dried grass stuff looks great......it really just looks like tall dried grass......that perhaps has had a cow walking through it with its bollocks dangling.
It's hard to say it's her bible black face as the face is on a hyper cute nendoroid face. I'm guessing it's just her standard annoyed face.
Anyway, DAY 1.
(or as soon as I can get it from an online store)
I can't believe I'm the 2nd person to talk about Planetes in this thread! I scanned over your comment and I was like wuuuuuuuuuuuuut
How could you not finish such an epic anime? Just look at that opening! epic! Definitely one of the top anime se...
I guess for figures that I've had my eye on, I'd preorder, like nendoroid miku and chua churam. The last figure I got was Alter's Aya from Oneechanbara, and that was already out.
I'm glad I haven't seen Fate/Stay Night, or I'd probably want to get...
I've always liked games since mario bros on the NES. Then I was introduced to Cowboy Bebop and Spirited Away around the time it opened in theatres in North America, and thus I was hooked. From anime comes the figure and Japan interests. Gaming sti...
There are too many variables to consider!
Until there comes a time when 2d girls can become intelligent, responsive companions, I'll go with 3d.
Artistically, I prefer 2d images to 3d photographs
Giving prizes to the more community active and veteran members is a good idea, as they indeed keep the site alive, but when you get too much into the details of what should qualify them, you might as well just find out the person who comments/posts/c...
Hair seams don't really bother me either, but for a fig at this price, I'd expect it to be cleaner. I'd probably pay 200ish for a figure I reeeeeaallllly wanted. Say....the Azusa wedding figure. I'd probably pay 200ish for that, since she's really...
I believe I've only rewatched Planetes (since it's my favourite series), and Lucky Star because it gives me a warm happy feeling inside. I rarely rewatch the series/movies that I buy - too many new things to see.
Also, the categorized galleries are...
Haha, I see the rules now properly reflect the update :D
In that case, I'll only change one character:
Nendoroid Shana/POLO Rin Kokonoe/Fauna/Human Mage
This was an interesting contest. It makes you do some researching (but the difficulty is enco...
After much researching, here goes - with classification by colours, cuz colours are fun:
Pink - (Nendoroid) Shana, Burning Hair and Eyes Ver.
Yellow - (POLO system) Pakira
White - (POLO system) Fauna
Dark blue - (PVC) Human Mage
Also Danny - You...
If a cliffhanger is the reason that's preventing you from watching season 1, there should be no worries, as the series finishes off very well; no cliffhangers. This Paris arc is just the natural progression afterwards.
Yeah Danny!
Push for those Minami-ke figures!
I'm glad for the 3rd season. Even though the 2nd season was worse, the seiyuu and familiar gags still carried it along.
Whoa, what didn't you like about Nodame Cantabile? It's one of my favourites.
Saikano is the standout worst anime for me. I had to force myself through that series, and it hurt my soul very badly. But not in the way the creators so obviously inte...
Overall pose should be another option. Face doesn't really make a figure worth buying, but it can certainly ruin a figure with otherwise good qualities.
Usually I get figs of characters that I know and like with cool poses, but recently I preordere...
