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

I watched V Gundam while airing as my first gundam series and it made as much sense as it would ever.

Only one you'd be lost without watching original is CAA, but that's a movie anyway.

And obviously I was talking about graphics, unless you are one of the "cell is the best shit ever" people, you can't really compare 90s graphic to current.

that's because Victory and 08 MS team are the only stand-alone UC anime productions, not the other way around.

But I can, it has been done countless times.

Old anime designs were better detailed, colored and shaded in general.

While Zeta and ZZ build on original, the stories are self contained you can watch without previous. Also F91, 0080 are standalone as well.

Tokyo ghoul - So the adaption decides to randomly mash the arc they skipped in now after the gourmet arc? Jesus christ what a clusterfuck.

+ Show Spoiler +
And they want to reach the aogiri arc in 12 episodes? This might just be the worst adaption of a series i've seen in quite some time with how rushed it's going to be.
From the Ghastly Eyrie I can see to the ends of the world, and from this vantage point I declare with utter certainty that this one is in the bag!

well I can watch One Piece 300+ episode without watching previous ones, but I won't understand a jack, it's hardy an enjoyable way, be it self-contained arc or not.

F91 is simply mechaporn without proper background, heck for some people even with it, lol. 0080? Well, it could be debated that it can raise your expectations for UC way too high, so you better watch it after one or two tv series completed.

0079 is only 493 episodes long, anyone can finish it in a week. And if you don't like it, UC Gundam wasn't made for you. But upcoming G-Reco is hardly an UC, there shouldn't be any kind of important references or continuing storylines if we are to believe Tomino's interviews, so everyone can try to watch it.

Until it sells well, and Sunrise make yet another GLORIOUS ZEON RETURNS kind of sequel, haha.

Zankyou no Terror - /rant Why can't they hire people who actually speak English?!?!! My god Five and that random FBI guy have terrible accents. The other important FBI guy has a good accent though. It's definitely still the best anime this season, but something stupid like this shouldn't happen. /rant

As someone who didn't read Tokyo Ghoul the adaption seems paced fine to me.

Normally I'm all for watching every series from the very start if you want to watch it at all but recently I watched a couple series where the first few episodes/season were horrible and I would recommend skipping it, so I can understand.

well, it's his opinion lol. I would say it's a tie between Nozaki-kun, Barakamon and Aldnoah Zero though honorable mention to Akame ga Kill and Rokujouma no Shinryakusha

I always thought it was the 15th (but that info is from the date listed on MAL so who knows how good that info is).

Edit: MAL now lists the 16th.

No I agree with that. I like some old anime as well. But with older movies, shows, music, & anime many are over rated due to nostalgia rather than content and quality.
Social Justice is a fools errand. May all the adherents at its church be thwarted. Of all the religions I have come across, it is by far the most detestable.

Yes. All gundam are watchable standalone, even UC ones. Just you will miss out on references and larger pictures.
And since it suppose to take place after UC, I'm sure there will be plenty of refs.

This is not true at all, BUT G-Reko is far enough after UC that it should be stand alone. At worst, it could be a Turn A type deal where the story is mostly self-contained but has lots of references.

Don't know how you can mention GitS and nostalgia. Belittles something that had a rather large impact on the industry and sci-fi in media just because you haven't gotten into it. Also suggests everyone that does like it somehow are unable to see it for what it is.

For a sec there I thought that meant Zero no Tsukaima and I was about to get really, really angry.

(because Zero no Tsukaima is really, really shit)

Submitter: Anonymous | Size: 5.14GB | Date: 2014-08-13 13:45 UTC | Comment: Blu-ray rip, since no one did it till now. Subs from Aero/AOI/Dekiagari (retimed & restyled). Ordered chapters (oh how I hate this buggy mess).


GrimRipper best ripper/editor confirmed. I will finally finish the show after 6 yeaars of waiting, yeah.

@Slaughter, to cut the story short. ZnT had a potential to be outstanding, but became a stereotype marketting ploy instead already 3 episodes in making. Creators aren't even fucking trying, because they know the product would sell because of western fans regardless. You can still love it, and I won't say a thing, but it's kinda worrysome seeing anime creators targetting foreign audience at first, if you ask me.
