I was thinking about playing a match last night but was doing figures. I keep seeing the new stuff and getting interested again.

I watched Samurai X first. Needless to say, I was greatly let down by Kenshin.

I never watched Gundam Wing, but Endless Waltz was enjoyable.

I finished episode 3 and Homura still has done nothing wrong. In fact she has kind of done nothing but stand around and stare menacingly.

Those guns tho

Ugh Gundam Wings.

I watched 20 episodes and decided to give up. The show is too confusing and everyone on the show is a nutjob.

I've been through some Miyazaki stuff now, liked Howl's Moving Castle the most. In general I want low amount of violence, and the miyazaki movies are good for that...

Which ones have you watched? If you like his stuff, just watch the ones you haven't yet as a start.

Oh shit that stuff. Much "wat" I had last time someone linked it in here.

I don't think it's that Miyazaki's movies have little violence, as much as it's that he makes the violence significant. I liked the robot's awakening scene in Castle in the Sky (I think? Missed the end too, was on VHS and the recording stopped unexpectedly so I had to do without the last 20 or so minutes) a lot, because of how it was portrayed rather than for the content.

Monoke, Laputa, Howl, Spirited, Borrowers, Kiki's, Porco, Totoro, Valley of Winds, whispers of the heart,
Wind Rising and Ponyo left, skipped because I don't like specific WW2 fixation (though if it's good I'll watch it) and seemingly a rehash of the little mermaid 1-sentence summary. Hmm Poppy Hill and Pompoko?
