Welcome to the General Discussion area where just about anything goes! This area is designed to discuss all matters and does not necessarily have to be Transformers related. Please keep topics relevant.

I saw the dub of Shin Chan, and despite the art style it was actually pretty funny. It seemed to get repetitive after a while though.

He got less perverted over the course of the show.


Really? Because watching the dub (On Adult Swim no less), it seemed to be the opposite.

Yes he did but that was around the last episodes that I've seen but at the same time his baby sister took over the role of the perverted kid. He was still perverted, but not as he used to be.

I've tried to watch shin-chan a couple of times both subbed and dubbed, but i have just not been able to get into it.

That said, on Sunday a buddy brought over my part of his big sale buy from one of the online retailers, and I now have the complete DVD set for Patlabor which is good as my VHS tapes are now failing.

Rewatched the first few episodes last night, some technology has passed the show by, but it's still a great watch, and not bad for a show most companies didn't want to touch as they though it wouldn't have an audience.

I like Bleach. Though I'm not too fond of the filler arc or anything post Soul Society to be honest. The longer it goes on the wider the door gets for even more convoluted zanpakuto releases and horrendously drawn out battles w/side character commentary. But even though it's getting long and annoying I will still read the manga from week to week because they are small manageable chunks that only take a minute to read.

Also, hey guys, the second season of Spice and Wolf has started. I'm happy. :mrgreen:

Now give me more Neuro and Bamboo Blade. :-B

That Alphonse is simply awesome, the chamber even comes out of the revolver cannon. The detailing is amazing.

I don't want to know the cost on this kit as I'm sure the GF will kill me for getting one.

Just finished season 2 of Kyo Kara Maoh. I really liked how it ended. They still need to give Yuri a female love interest since it's clear he see Wolfram as a friend only.

Now I'm waiting for the season 3 dub.

Not to sure what I'm going to watch next. I'd kinda like to see something along the lines of Fruits Basket. That was a really well done anime and I wish they'd make a continuation now that the manga is complete.

Any suggestions?

Yo...

Was thinking of starting an Anime figure/Gashapon/Trading Figure thread...

Would any of you have pics to contribute or should that stuff just stay around here?

Thoughts?

Personally, I wouldn't have any photos to contribute(i currently only have 1 non-tf anime fig...and it's a valk). However, I would love to see a thread like that. I often browse anime figs/vinyl kits/macross/gundams/etc. I just never bite the bullet and buy. Having a thread dedicated to such items would be very interesting...assuming members can and would be willing to contribute.

I've got a few bits and pieces in my collection.

It would give me an excuse to reopen the Patlabor and King Gainer revoltechs that have been sitting in boxes since my move last year.

The should label it as volume 1. But its outrageous i seen it in best buy thr other day and it was beside Gundam season 1 collection 2 and it was the same price when Gundam 00 is only 9 freaking episodes.

I found this today...

I came.

I cannot wait until this is shipped to me. Pegas even transforms into jet mode! This is better than Christmas and I don't even have it yet.

$100 USD on Yahoo Japan. I have no idea about scale, I'm going to guess at 1/16 like the previous model kits. I hope that's the scale anyway, so he'll fit right in with Evil and the rest of the Tekkamen.

Apparently Pegas is 8 inches and Blade is 4 inches, which is a little shorter than I had hoped. Doh.

Still, this is awesome for me. I've wanted a Pegas forever and I could never afford the B-Club Pegas in a million years.

And wow, this is the thousandth post in the Anime thread. It's been a good day today.
