edit: But fuck this Legend of Koizumi thing is amazing ROFL. Are episodes released regularly? It was a once off special spin-off from the manga, so possibly not. The manga on the other hand has 3 volumes and (in my opinion) is considerably more awesome. The manga follows a different story.
I can't seem to find scanlations of it past the first few chapters, where do I go? =O

So I started watching Minami-ke last week.
olololol

hahaha minami-ke is such an amazing anime

I started on White Album earlier this week. I just finished episode 13. I don't really see why people hated this series so much...it's pretty good, in my opinion.
The Random Curiosity guy even dropped the show sometime in the first half saying something about how he couldn't find it in himself to care about the characters anymore, and Eclipse didn't bother picking up the second half to sub...
Weird.

Maybe everyone played the game by Leaf and thought the original was better.
That industry is some screwed up industry, apparently White Album 2 is going to start its releases with just an introduction of a game. Something that'll probably get a developer lynched in any other industry -.-
Spring season at this rate involves me waiting for Break Blade and Bungaku Shoujo while watching only Angel Beats. Too much to read.

Because the pacing in the show sucked major balls despite some good scenes, there's a lot of stuff they don't bother explaining and the characters after a while despite great starting back stories never get fully developed. Don't bother watching the rest of it, you'll want to stab something at the end of it.
TMD-Raze did sub season 2.

So after finishing the Kare Kano anime, for the first time I was actually interested in reading a manga and I ended up finishing 14 volumes of it that weren't covered by the anime today. Can't say I regret it because it is truly an amazing experience. Feels good to finish my first anime lol

I used to read manga when I was stuck with my 56k internet...

I read manga. Unfortunately, my dislike of starting series before they're finished doesn't work quite as well with manga as it does with anime. ):
|
Finals is over! and time to come back to anime. I heard Major 6th season is coming this April Until Major comes out. I want some recommend on a current Action series or Sports series that I can watch.

Hmmmm, what I find ironic is the usage of the word manga and comic. When my mother was in Japan, you were suppose to refer manga as comics (comicu) and when my mother asked a clerk at Borders where she could find Japanese comics, he abruptly corrected her and told her to refer to those as manga.

It's not a particularly important distinction...however manga and American comics and graphic novels have huuuuge differences, both in structure and influence/cultural role, and even in how the respective industries work. I think making a distinction between the two is important. As for what happened to your mother...the word you call manga or comics isn't really important. The important thing is that there is a difference so that it's important you call them different things.
I really need to get back to work and stop camping this thread -_-

Hmm i thought Guin Saga was the best that ive watched in that list.
I was looking forward for the new Inuyasha series, since i enjoyed the first seasons but meh.. it didnt change and i guess i grew out of it or something. It was really boring.
I actually hear new FMA is good but after a couple episodes i didnt stay into it. I enjoyed the first one alot and this new series didnt seem dark enough for me, unlike the first one.
Umineko reminded me of Higurashi in a way and i enjoyed it alot becuz of that
I havent watched any of the other ones, ill try lookin into them as well since im also getting tired of all the somewhat kid animes. Been trying to look for more action type anime, that isnt mecha. Pretty hard to find good new ones 
Hmm, some action animes i've recently watched:
Aoi Bungaku (not really action but the stories were amazingly good and there was quite a few killing, in otherwords, i felt like listing this one :D)
Tears to Tiara
Kurokami
Fairy Tail (still in production, pretty fun watch so far)
Hajime no Ippo New Challenger
Kokaku no Regios
Darker then Black 1 & 2
Saiyuki, Saiyuki RELOAD, Saiyuki RELOAD Gunlock
Not really action but some good ones ive also seen recently:
Saki
Kino no tabi, The beautiful world
Hitsuji no Uta
Kaiba
Whisper of the heart
Zaion: I wish you were here
Kumo no Muko, Yakusoku no basho, the place promised in our early days
|
went through zero no tsukaima
+ Show Spoiler +Last episode of season 2 was so fucking epic, when saito puts louise to sleep and takes her place to fight the army by himself. that whole sequence was so baller. Mixed feelings on how he got brought back to life though, it would have been so badass if he actually died for her, but I'm all for the happy ending too

New Angel Beats preview with a bunch of new footage! HYPE
I don't have a clue what they're saying, but I expect it's stuff we already know about the show.
Saki is great. It's quickly becoming probably one of my favorite anime just because of the awesomeness and the mahjong (And the episodes aren't seven minutes long like Koizumi).
+ Show Spoiler +

Yeah, the Angel Beats PV doesn't say anything you guys don't know already, other than us actually getting Angel's voice and seeing her be awesome. It just continues along the idea that they are struggling against 'God' and the fates. Not particularly informative, but resonates within you in a way.
The important thing is that there is a difference so that it's important you call them different things.
The difference in Japanese is more pronounced written than spoken, since outside of a certain group you just bypass the subject of manga/comic and the action explains itself
