oralb Posted November 15, 2006 Report Share Posted November 15, 2006 One Piecehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_pieceread the manga a few years ago, stopped during the “skypiea arc” of the story as I perceived that part was boring. It was only until recently a friend who is really into “One Piece” re-intro the manga and lent me his whole collection (still ongoing)As a manga, One Piece stood up with its successful blending of comical moments, exciting fighting and carefully planned plots (e.g. small details in the earlier part of the story had a significant impact as the story progress), all this while maintaining the core concepts of chasing one’s dream and cherishing one’s friends.Another trait of this manga is the injection of tragic elements on the characters but instead of bringing the story to a mellow self, the writer/ artist injects great hope at each of the characters and their burning desire to achieve what they wanted.Almost all main characters have a tragic past and his/ her dream, which brings character development and much depth into them. My favorite character in Tony Tony Chopper.Read about him here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Tony_ChopperI shred tears when I read his story in the Manga and yet still cried when I saw the anime episodes. Oh, if you are watching the English dubbed episodes showing in Central, don’t bother, not only the English version suffered cuts, the monotone of the voice actors completely ruined the show.

GachiMuchi Posted November 15, 2006 Report Share Posted November 15, 2006 Wah, OB, I didn't know u can be so "sensitive" one ah. Anyway, I have in recent time been following on Naruto anime. I like the story line as it is uses suspense and strategy to keep you glued to the story. As with most Jap shows, even the bad guys have their reasons for being bad and each character has a background.

oralb Posted November 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2006 naruto - i have watched the anime all the way till the end of Sasuke arc, stopped when the filler episodes started, IMO they have the bloody longest filler episodes, more than 1 whole year of screening. not only were the filler arc boring, they didnt contribute to character and plot growth, which is expected.now waiting the Naruto II to start the screening.Bleach - likewise watched the anime till the filler arc. One Piece - i started with Manga rather than Anime. different series have their merits but seldom will utilse character's tragic past to the ultimate. You really need to have a heart of stone (or dont like manga and anime at all) to not to cry on the Tony Tony Chopper's past. it was really amazing that i cried when reading the manga and yet again when watching the anime when i already know the story.basically chopper's past was about acceptance. Born with a blue nose, Chopper was outcasted by his reindeer family, and when he gained the ability to be a human, he wasnt accepted as one either. you can see the similiarity with PLU's status. (another character's past that is equally touching was Nico Robin's past)If you have the ability to jump into the story, i will recommend watching the past of Tony Chopper in youtude, you can ignored the characters in the present time and just concentrate on Chopper. If you are hooked, continued the story to the ending of this arc to have another heartbreaking moment...Episode 84Episode 85Episode 86 Quote When I Think It, I Do It, I Win It!

But I like the computer virus angel though, and how the three wise men work against one another to give the best solution.I am not really into sports anime : slam dunk, prince of tennis, dear boys, or some robots anime : Macross, Gundam.Fighting ones are cool : Flame of Recca, Yuuyuu Hakoshyo, Law of UekiJourney ones allow me to go for adventure : Inuyasha, One PieceKiddie ones are ok : Pokemon, Yugio, Digimon, MARBy any chance some of you guys here know about a Japanese Transformer series on power master and head master?

lonely Posted July 16, 2007 Report Share Posted July 16, 2007 Lol thanks for the advice. I am ok at the moment. Lonely is just a nick I created when I was out of a bad relationship. But I am enjoying all the things that I like to do at the moment. Just happens that most of them are solitary things.I do play badminton with my friends every week and catch movies when a good one comes up.I have a problem though. I have been working overnight for a while and now my bio clock is all whacked. I am wide awake now, in the middle of the night...

bearhunt Posted July 17, 2007 Report Share Posted July 17, 2007 Neon Genesis was one of the first anime series i watched... i loved the absolute mindfxxk and the nihilistic violence.another one was Serial Experiments Lain. great opening track too. Ghost In the Shell and Akira are two classic titles that any serious fans of Anime must watch at least once.More recently, Tokyo Godfathers, Spirited Away, Blue Submarine no 6 and Macross Zero are all notable ones. And oh, Princess Mononoke. Heck anything from Studio Ghibli is good Sol Bianca is good too. And omfg Samurai Champloo! You have GOT to watch that!At the Picturehouse earlier I saw the promo video for Paprika. Lets go watch that shall we?

psyched Posted July 18, 2007 Report Share Posted July 18, 2007 gundam seed was really good!i'm watching an old one - X. Which also has a bit of gay overtones :D:D Probably quite hard to find, but it has quite a interesting storyline... Written by CLAMP.. Can also watch their latest xxxHOLIC.Ergo proxy is one of the not so old ones that i'll recommend.. need quite a bit of thinking to understand it though hahahhaOr if you got time to watch 70 episodes, Yakitate!! Japan also very fun to watch.. Gets boring towards the end, but super funny anime OH, and Witch Hunter Robin... If you like the mecha genre, Full Metal Panic, FMP 2nd Raid, and FMP Fumoffu are also pretty classic... And Ghost in the Shell:SAC tooYeah.. and the list goes on and on...P.S.
