Future Diary
It was quite interesting from how I remembered it. The antagonist kept quoting or referencing a bunch of literature, especially his favourite (the person that created the original Blade-Runner?).I should watch Psycho Pass again. It's been like 13 years fuck lol
And a great 2nd OP. Cause I feeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeel...I don't remember it well enough but I remember thinking Makishima was a good villain.
If you liked Psycho-Pass, it's quite different but short enough as-well and from the same person so maybe you'll find that interesting is Madoka. It doesn't look like it, but quite messed-up at times.I should watch Psycho Pass again. It's been like 13 years fuck lol
Haibane Renmei was one of my faves back in the day, as a newer anime fan. Been 13 years since then though, so dunno what I'd think now. It's one of those where nothing clear happens - more about the atmosphere and mystery.Currently watching Haibane Renmei. At episode 10. Kind-of interesting.
On TV, Knight in the Area & Jujutsu-Kaisen
Watched some kind-of short series (not long-running), like last year.
Steins;Gate & 0 (good)
Erased (interesting & good at times, but weird. in the manga the killer has like a weird, text-book serial-killer back-story with weird brother too.)
Psycho-Pass & the movie (good)
Madoka (a-lot of the series was interesting)
Texhnolyze (boooooooooooooring outside of certain sections & like the last 5ish episodes where it gets good IIRC but that's when it ends sooooooooooo...If I remember I'd just jump from one point to the next & then to the last few episodes but I don't really remember since it's been awhile.)
All from how I remember.
btw, as I was looking-up Texhnolyze before watching, since I saw it aired in Germany long-ago I saw that they also aired interviews with the 2 creators & found on Youtube:
Yeah, I watched SEL. That's the reason I even wanted to watch Texhnolyze & Haibane Renmei. SEL is one of the best.Haibane Renmei was one of my faves back in the day, as a newer anime fan. Been 13 years since then though, so dunno what I'd think now. It's one of those where nothing clear happens - more about the atmosphere and mystery.
Psycho-pass is great (I remember trying to get people from DBZF to watch it for a while when it first came out, to no avail). I don't remember the plot and details loads, but the premise and depiction of the future is one I still think of from time to time. The band that did the opening song became easily one of my top 10 bands, when I got into them a lot 8+ years later. Season 2 is whatever....it's nothing. Just meh...also it doesn't have Kogami.
Tex is a pretty muted series, again more about the atmosphere and being in another world, like Haibane, but here a dystopian world, without light and many things humans really need. It's pretty ok, but nothing really happens. Interesting how there's like no dialogue.
You ever watch Lain? It's from ABe as well, who worked on Haibane and Tex-mexolynze. You probably have and I should probably know.
What lol. I'm curious...was it fucked up? Or just disconcerting?There is still something even in the last few episodes that really made me not like it & I'd rather erase that from my memory.
I read the first two chapters to get an idea and I think I'll watch the anime. Seems like my kind of story. Hopefully they don't blow it from here.Dandadan first 3 eps
I knew the opening song already (listened to it on repeat couple months ago, maybe for like an hour), turns out I know the ending song too.
The eps go by so easily. Three eps is like one ep of other anime, with how fast-moving it is. It's like the opposite of the One Piece Toei anime - no nonsense.
Super wacky and unpredictable. Very creative from the author. The manga is well-regarded but I'm gonna recommend the anime, cuz it's an easy watch and the action and visuals are good.
Only watched it cuz it was the first thing I could think of when I wanted: something short to watch while finishing my food - ended up watching 3 eps instead of 1. edit: I didn't even have any idea what it was about until I started watching it!
It seems like it starts to suck when he dies but he gets better a few episodes after.Also I forgot (but have mentioned it before anyway) to say Call of the Night. Fun series.
There are a bunch of other series airing as-well, but I'm not paying as much attention to them.
Also was half-watching Gurren-Lagann (as it is airing), but that series I thought kind-of went down-hill once Aniki died. That first ED is amazing though. It kind-of sounds as if Simon's German voice-actor learned Japanese & sang the song though. You know I did say it wasn't as good once Aniki died, but it did give way to this epic moment:
Paedo shiz. Paeeeeeeedo.Also I forgot (but have mentioned it before anyway) to say Call of the Night. Fun series.
