Anime/Manga not so ultimate otaku Lounge

I had trouble getting into Tokyo Ghoul, could have been my mood at the time, so I bookmarked where I was (not sure, episode 5 or something).

But am really enjoying Yu Yu Hakusho. :)

Well, it's not for everybody. And it's always nice to have options, just in case. And I'm glad you're enjoying YuYu Hakusho.

With green, purple, orange, and blue hair - and all of the above for eye colors plus red and yellow. :D

I think they're just trying to make the characters exotic and fanciful.

And while some go for a Western look for their characters, some of what you see you see with a cultural bias.

I've lived there, and have had a few friends eventually confess that they have trouble at first because Americans and Europeans all look the same, while others roll their eyes at those guys and call them silly. Probably similar to the reactions you'd get locally about telling Japanese apart.

So it's possible that for some of the anime there's a non-Japanese, exotic (Western) influence for the characters, but others, it's not really there and is a matter of viewer perception.

I don't know - just an opinion. :)

Durarara 2 started this season. According to rumours ,all LN's will be in anime.
The pace is much faster than Durarara 1 .

Awesome !! It's a fantastic anime if you like characters. And there are like 15-20 major characters ...

Also Assassination Classroom ....What could go wrong when your teacher is a giant tentacle monster trying to eat earth...

Last Season
FateStayNight is on a season break. Liked the cliffhanger...Feels strange rooting for a villain (former ?) ...Also Tohsaka jumping from building giving Shirou a cold shoulder and then carried by Archer followed by disillusion(Theme song of OG FSN) ....Epic...

On the new self-driving car that Google is working with the Germans on to put on the autobahn -

Yeah. Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it. Proof in the following documentary. That's right. Last time we tried this - we got Astro Boy.

I just hope that you are satisfied, Google and Germany and autobahn automatic car people!


Yeah. Old school smackdown on that shizz.

Dang. Up to date on all of my series.

Going to try Melody of Oblivion - I don't know...

Gah. Already seen it. Looking... Looking...

OK then, trying K (K-Project).

I don't recall this - interesting opening!

Anyone seen this? Any good?

Never mind - it was pretty good the first time I watched it. Or maybe I haven't but it seems like it. Lmao, I can't keep up with myself. :p
