Re: What are you currently watching?

Watching the last ten episodes of Dungeons & Dragons (the 80's animated movie), big hiatus between the previous eps due to FMA. then its onto much anticipated Cowboy Bebop. I'm alternating between Japanese animation/Anime and western fantasies. Can't help noticing some similarities D&D and Disney's Snow White has to the Anime style; humor and artwork in particular and I think these two came before Akira. Could the Japanese have borrowed from these to develop their own almost brand like specific style, I wonder?

Cheers, DeepThought

Just finished Oku-sama wa Joushikousei. *-_-* Working on Amatsuki,
which isn't bad, actually. Kinda like HaruToki, without the bish harem element.

Watched DragonLance: Dragons of Autumn Twilight.
MO:
The animation is not good, comparing to OVA/TV-series type anime.
As usual, the book version has deeper story.

Everybody should have more Ghibli. Miyazaki needs to step up production.

Pretty hooked on Bleach right now. A little slow moving, but the story line is good and nice little comedy here and there, though a bit cheesy. Still hooked.
Just got the 5th season of DBZ in my mail box the other day so will be watching that for sometime.

Going very retro at the moment, and I've just picked up an old copy of Heroic Legend of Arislan. Might continue along those lines and watch Record of Lodoss War again.

Re: What are you currently watching?

Long time anime fan who remembers seeing Marine Boy and Jonny Quest as a child. Just finished watching the stunningly georgeous Appleseed Exmachina.

I have just started watching the remastered Robotech. Up to episode 12 last night. Very nice to see the old stuff with pretty decent sound and with a good quality image. Memories of the days when one would have to survive on NTSC off air, or worse quality recordings.
