If you come in here looking for "anime recommendations" then please refer to this chart before posting: Anime Recommendations (as of may 2014). We also have an IRC channel called #tladt where we all hang out. The channel is on Rizon, not QuakeNet! Feel free to check it out. TLADT discord is Discord.gg

For currently airing anime, please see Anichart.net

If you want "Earth vs Aliens", watch Gunbuster.


Is there anything else you can recommend?

Macross Frontier is another about "Humanity vs Alien Space Monsters". Nadesico, sorta + Show Spoiler [Nadesico spoilers] +
More like Nadesico pretends to be Humanity vs Alien Monsters early on
. Getter Robo Armageddon is another towards the end, but I don't really like recommending this for someone's first Getter. GaoGaiGar is technically "Earth vs Alien Space Monsters" in the latter half, but it is in a fairly different style than what you may be looking for (its very 'old school' mecha, monster-of-the-week stuff).

There are plenty of bad ones out there, but I wouldn't recommend those.

I was going more for a "Humanity vs Space Monster" type thing. Like if its just aliens in general, there are plenty more Macross things I could recommend.

Happy birthday, btw

I vote 1, you can't really drop something at the OP, you just skip it.

Precisely. It's not likely so it's probably true.
Gargantia aots however, now that's not even unlikely, that's downright absurd ;D

But in the same statement he says that Code Geass is a masterpiece a thing that everyone on TLAD agrees with, especially R2

It's quite enjoyable if you don't get annoyed by kirino. It may also depend on your tastes.

Well, not sure what your expectations were, but doesn't really change what I was expecting. PV pretty much just confirms that its going to be an anime original story, though. Not like that wasn't expected already, though. Also Mages was in the PV, so we have yet another Maker confirmed. Mages was newly introduced in Victory, so maybe that improves Hanakana's chances for getting in.

Well it doesn't surprise me that a series that is primarily a parody starts off with a Star-Wars wall-of-text lol

I recently watched Frontier and I liked it.

The ending was a pretty good UNDERSTANDING ending, so I guess it can work between humans and aliens, even though Trailblazer made me think it doesn't.

Frontier isn't bad. I liked Original/DYRL/Plus/2 more, though.

Frontier delivered on songs, so I can't knock it. Story is OK if a bit cheesy.

New season:

Gin no saji, Free, Genshiken, F/KL, Inu to hasami, Monogatari

Im not much for Mecha but Frontier has good music with some celebratory throwbacks to the originals. Other than thats its an okish story.

Definately want to check out the originals. Probably never wouldve watched anime period if it wasnt for Robotech and then Macross.

Speaking of which..

Something just reminded me of Penguindrum and whoops that show is too sad. I still need to buy it on bluray sometime...

It and Tiger&Bunny were my favorite 2011 shows. So good.

Penguindrum : I've watched 1-2 episode ; it was weird! Still on hold, maybe ill pick it back if its worth it

I just caught up with the 11 episodes of Gargantia

+ Show Spoiler +
The first episodes were great. And then, things slowed down (the famous bikini episodes, ...) I gotta say the last episodes really put me back into the serie. I like the ethic questions the viewer can have, and also asking ourselves who is right and who is in the wrong (Alliance vs Aliens) - of course, nothing is white or black

Seeing "dead" character alive, at this point, isn't surprising... it feels cheap. Wonder if they will ever meet with the rest of the fleet

The "Alien", or humans turned bad feels like Blue Gender (still have that anime in my mind for some reason) ; humans being the reason of their own destruction!



I also just started Macross ; I am not too sure which one I've dled, but the animation/graphics are splendid
