I'm personally enjoying the series so far. A lot more than I realised I would. I really did enjoy the original Avatar, and I'm loving Korra's attitude and the overall new feel to the anime. I really do like how it has been done. I mean, it feels new, but its still maintained its original feeling too. I'm also a fan of this Mako x Korra shipping. I loved the Katara and Aang ship in the last one so yeah. I miss Sokka heavily though. He was just amazing, and I do hope Toph is still perhaps alive too. We know her daughter is here, but this doesn't mean that she herself is dead. And this leads onto another interesting thought. Did Sokka ever have children? I can't wait to find out. Finally... we can be sure that Korra will at some point go into the Avatar state... I wonder how that'll look. XD (I want her to talk to Aang too -since she obviously will be able to talk to the previous Avatars- Something tells me that is just gonna be epic)
So it's finally ended, but there is something interesting I wish to discuss instead of just the episode. There are rumours going around that Bleach is now no longer completely at an end, but is on a hiatus for 1 or 2 years. I honestly don't know if this is true or just wishful thinking of the fans, but regardless, the 'last' episode, otherwise to be referred to as 366 did have a lot of "This is not the end." and even ended on something akin to (depending on the subs you watched) "See you again." Albeit, this could just be the anime's way of saying 'life will go on, etc' but it depends how you want to interpret it. At any rate, while it's confirmed to be over judging from the news I posted in the first post, and this is definitely the last episode (for the meantime) We might perhaps see Bleach make a comeback. I honestly do not know. It's not the first time the anime industry has changed its mind about something like this, and it probably isn't the last. Either way, I'll be moving onto the manga in the meantime. If Bleach does indeed come back after a while. I'll certainly watch it again. If it doesn't, well.... meh, nothing I can do, and I've made my peace with the 'last' episode. As I said, there is always the manga instead. But yeah, those were the ramblings I wanted to ramble about. I know we can't put much stock in rumours, but I figured they were worth mentioning based on how things ended and knowing how Tite Kubo (and the industry in general) has been in the past. EDIT: http://www.mangareader.net/bleach/479/20 For those switching from the anime to the manga at this point. The above link is where about's the anime ended in the manga. Just so you don't have to go searching for where about's it is. lol
Gah...sorry, that was my mistake. lol Dunno what I was thinking when I wrote that. Please ignore it. :P *goes to edit last post* EDIT: *editted* I guess it's because so many anime are ending now that I wrote that like it was the same for Mirai Nikki. Obviously not the case but when so many good shows are all ending the same time... XD (can't believe I said something so stupid :P)
Spoiler: episode 23 ...So now, everything finally makes sense. I honestly didn't expect anything like that. The whole... first Yuno going back to the past (and by extension then killing the version of herself that lived in that time) after learning the dead couldn't be revived... I'm speechless. It explains so much though. How she managed to open that vault and everything. It also explains how she seemed to know in advance what would happen. I mean... yeah she had a future diary, but I meant in the sense that even then, she seemed to just be able to tell how things would pan out. This episode was just insane but awesome. I can't wait for the next one. Also... Yukkiteru and Yuno came together finally. It was actually kind of sweet lol Until the mÃndfúcks came anyway.
Here: http://assassinscreed.ubi.com/ac3/en-GB/pre-order/index.aspx This is about the different editions available. Freedom Edition seems to be the best, but naturally the most expensive. lol
It's funny... I knew you were serious when you said 'all Sabers ever' last night on MSN... but seeing it posted here still surprises me. I am amused. Shirou is going to have a Harem of Sabers to fawn over (and attempt to die for...). :P (Even Prototype Saber, cause meh... Saber. XD) Also... letting people know. I have essays due in next week. Posting will be slow if not none-existant. Rejoice though. After Wednesday (the deadline etc), I'll be free... for a few days. XD
Episodes: 22 Second Season?: Nope, It's finished. Plot Summary: On Christmas Eve, 2029, the unidentified "Apocalypse Virus" spreads and plunges Japan into a state of emergency in a chaos known as the "Lost Christmas" incident. An international organization known as the GHQ intervenes with martial law and restores order to Japan at the cost of its independence. Ten years later in 2039, Shu Ouma, a 17-year-old high school student who keeps to himself in school, meets Inori Yuzuriha, the lead singer for Egoist, while visiting one of his favorite places on his way home from school. Shu is a big fan of Inori, a singer who has taken the Internet world by storm. However, he also discovers the other side of her, which is that she is a member of "Funeral Parlour", a resistance group that aims to liberate Japan from the GHQ. Shu starts taking part in the actions of "Funeral Parlor" and the "king's mark" appears on his right hand after the Void Genome in his pocket was shot by a GHQ Endlave. This "mark" bestows on him the power to reach inside another person's body and extract and materialize a weapon from it. The anime tells the story of Shu's reluctant involvement with Funeral Parlour and the hardship involved in using his power, and how in time, he grows and becomes a person who finds a reason to fight and protect others. My thoughts: This anime was one of my favourites from the end of 2011 into 2012 lineup, alongside some of the other greats like Mirai Nikki. I'll keep my thoughts short due to lack of time while writing this but the story of Guilty Crown is highly engaging and pretty easy to follow although with enough complications that it won't leave you bored. If anything, I'd say the story is really well fleshed out and will leave you satisfied episode after episode (of course... some events and cliff hangers might leave you frustrated, but I mean this in the good sense where you want to go straight to the next episode). As many of you know, one of the things I love about anime is seeing how well the characters develop, and Guilty Crown does have some amazing characters as well as character development. You can really see and feel how they all change from the events that happen throughout the story and how many bonds are created and/or destroyed. The protagonist might evoke mixed reactions at first, but as the series goes on, you usually find your place with him as he does in his own world. The action is amazingly well done and put bluntly, Guilty Crown has plenty of moments of badass that make the series memorable. The soundtrack is great and compliments the series well, and I do have to say I particularly enjoy the opening and ending themes. The ending did give a feeling of closure, but at the same time, it left a void (no pun from the series, I swear) in my heart. I won't spoil what happens of course, but for those that watch it, you'll see why. I do highly recommend this series and I am pretty confident ~ But yeah. Anyone else watch this anime? Any thoughts and things to add etc? (Please remember to spoiler tag things if you're gonna talk about story elements, so as not to ruin things for people who may wish to watch it but haven't yet. Thanks. XD)
So... the anime is at an end and I have to say this was an interesting end to a great series. It gave me a feeling of closure so I was satisfied, but at the same time, I feel disappointed that it's over. Only 8 episodes long... it was pretty short considering, but all the same. It was a very nice series. I'd have liked more, but I can't complain. Some things were confusing at the time, but once you get your head around it, it does make a good amount of sense to a good degree. Whether they make a second season or not (it doesn't look likely, but meh) I'd watch it with interest.
I know why he isn't there. That's not my point. I was just asking if he could add him in. Shirou is the only one missing, that's all.
Prems are 3D? ...But I prefer 2D girls!! *shot*
Oh, Droid. Could you add in Emiya Shirou to my list of played characters in the first post? XD He isn't there, and he's already in the RP lol :P
Yeah, this was the exact point. Canonically, Hero's Shade is the Hero of Time. lol Also, I laughed at the character choice. XD Team OHK indeed. :P
*runs out of the thread in fear* O_O;
For this is irrelevant. The fact is that canonically, he isn't. I mean, when you say 'for this he is' that sounds like heading into OC territory. :/ EDIT: lol... Ninja'd by Dark.
Point taken, and well made... *shot*
Some more advice: [video=youtube;wIkJvY96i8w]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wIkJvY96i8w[/video] and do not... I mean... DO NOT! Take an arrow to the knee.
Oh, I agree. I meant in the fact that a lot of other companies wouldn't go so far once a game was released, but Bioware care enough to actually give a new ending because of the fan reaction. I'm impressed lol That was the point I was making. It's nice to see a company willing to do that much for its fans. If anything, the quality of Mass Effect alone shows they can deliver masterpieces, so I can't wait to see any of the new content. It'll definitely be interesting and exciting.
I decided to use my old style banners again. I'll still use the other one for massive posts with lots of characters, but yeah, I feel like using these ones right now. XD
Subaru breathed a huge sigh of relief as she held the sobbing boy. "Don't worry, Thoma-kun... I'll protect you no matter what the cost." she told him. "You're my precious family." She then pulled back slowly and put her hands on his shoulders while looking him in the eyes. "Are you okay? You aren't hurt are you?" Natsu was had been about to respond to Naruto's explanation when there was a huge explosion nearby and the shockwave sent him and everyone else flying. Thankfully into soft snow for most. Natsu on the other hand hit a nearby cliff face. Thank god he was extremely durable. "Hey! WHAT THE HELL KINDA MOON SHOOTS PEOPLE!" he exclaimed while looking up at the... uh... moon, and then he was buried in snow that had decided to fall from the top of the cliff in which he had just hit. Shirou simply tilted his head at the mention of 'Synergist' Was that a Servant class? A new one? What the hell? Instead, he chose to answer the next question, which... he didn't know the answer to. "I've got no idea... One minute I was with..." he thought back to how he had been with Saber and Tohsaka and then... the rest of it was blank. What had he been doing? Why was he here now. "...Then, I was being carried by the giant Servant over there." he looked at Odin, his eyes instantly took notice of Odin's swords, examining every single detail and then something inside of him churned, like it was collecting useful information.
Either way, it's nice to hear that Bioware actually care about what the fans have to say.
