Between this and the Last of Us, I can safely say that all emotions have been drained from me.

I think I'm going to wait awhile before I play the Walking Dead.

I don't watch a lot of Anime but Code Geass is definitely one my favourites.

Could've been spicier (then again, my taste buds have been inured to such through years of eating Hunan/Hubei cuisine).

I had kimchi stew for the first time recently. They brought out a stone bowl still boiling and roiling, I decided to take a big spoonful right away.

Shit was tasty though, once my tongue recovered.

@Chrispy: Agreed. I find that often times that the more obscure titles for anything often tend to be the best. (Matter of opinion of course)

Like the Manga Vagabond. I love that stuff silly.

wtf Code Geass is far from obscure. It's one of the most mainstream animes out there lol.

Maybe in the context of "I've never watched anime outside of Toonami" it's obscure haha

Haha I thought it was obscure. My bad.

Mind you I have next to no anime knowledge outside the absolutely ginormous animes, so I guess it's a matter of perspective. I'd say Bobobo-Bobo-Bobo is an obscure anime then, but then someone's going to tell me that one is big too.

I recently watched my first anime, Death Note, and fucking LOVED it. One of my favorite shows of all time. Already re watched it haha. I was recommended Code Gaess if I liked Death Note so much. Def gonna be my next anime!

I also have seen a few episodes of samurai champloo and really liked that.

bobobo is well known, but not really that popular. So it's kinda obscure I guess? Anything that long running in Shounen Jump can't really be "obscure", honestly.

Or maybe I'm just an elitist otaku lel

Honestly you've only just seen Death Note?

PM me if you want an incredibly brief list of really good anime (hint; its alll monogatari)

EDIT: Req, there's a whole vault of Bobobo that was incredibly hipster. Then there was that other arc that was translated to English.

lol Bobobo...

Well I can't really get my hands on any anime since I am pretty much restricted to what other people manage to download (I don't get into town often) and they rarely want to spend their time on animes. They usually wanna get Downton Abbey or Once Upon a Time or some other such bullshit.

I plan on getting into Anime when I get back to the States though!

So what is everyone's go to song at the moment? Mine is Somewhere in America by Jay-Z. It was previously Holy Grail by Jay-Z and 50 ways to make a record by Kid Cudi.

Link may not work cause Blackberries blow, but google it. Great song.

IMO Toothbrushes set the tone for every filler and transition episode to follow.

It was a milestone in quality anime.
