Welcome to the 8th iteration of the Anime Thread!
I just got back from a 1 week cruise through the Mediterranean Sea to open this thread. I’m Rona and this time it’s my turn to host this meeting point of otaku and other creatures without a real life Razz
First of all the most important thing: AT#8 is the “Speedy Penguin Edition” Why? Because I wrote this post in less than a day and one day my penguins will reign over the world, but until then, have fun Big Grin

Newbie? You’ll be one of us so fast, you won’t know what hit you!
Here in the AT we are a happy family (Yolky is the mother Razz) and we take don’t bite, so feel free to ask anything ^^

What is anime?
It may be that you wander in here because you saw the AT in the thread list and wondered ‘What the &%°§ are anime? Well, to get you covered I copied Khaled’s text to this topic. I hope nobody notices Mean Happy
Anime is, as defined by this article from theOtaku.com, "A new type/style of drama in Japan which uses fictional, 2-D characters instead of real people, and has many different genres (Fantasy, Sci-Fi, Adventure, Comedy, Romance etc) and each Anime has is own suited, mostly not targeted age groups because of the varying elements of maturity within the different shows themselves."

Want to know more? Here are some useful links:
Anime - Wikipedia

I’m in, what’s next?
Ask around, I would say. Everyone in here has his/her own taste and would suggest another starting point to what is the way of the otaku. We will all gladly help you, but depending on who you listen to, your journey might lead you from calm romantic slice-of-life stories to…well…eyestabby Mean Happy



Also, here’s a few good links to help!

AniDB
MyAnimeList






Thread Rules
Well, at first glance we might seem like a chaotic bunch doing whatever they want, we do have a few rules to make sure this thread stays as enjoyable as it is to everyone. We are not strict in general (not until the penguins arrive at least Shady), but these few rules you should follow.

  • Respect Everyone
  • No Hentai or swearing
  • No "bagging" other members. Please take issues with other people to Private Topics.
  • Enjoy yourself!

History

Here are links to the predecessors of this thread. The evolution of the Holy Halls of the Glamorous AT so to say.

The Anime Thread #1, The Anime Thread #2, The Anime Thread #3, The Anime Thread #4, The Anime Thread #5, Anime Thread #6, Anime Thread #7


Who are you and why are you in my bath tub?
  • To expose the rest of the forum, friends and family to the wonders of anime
  • To have a place to discuss anything anime/manga related
  • To create a close knit "Family"
  • To apply our gained knowledge from anime to real life situations

Replying Format

@Name:

When you write it in your window, it should look something like this:
[color:yellow][b]@Name[/b][/color]: 


Remember it. Use the reply method and copy the code from a previous post. I encourage the use of the format, although occasionally I just quote, so who am I to tell you which one to use (except the one who can bring the wrath of the Holy Penguin Empire upon you Mean Happy).
What most people do wrong: the colon is NOT bold or colored and don’t forget the space after it Wink
Also, to ensure general readability and understandability of your posts, you should use full sentences. Instead of ‘I don’t like it.’ In reply of a topic that is already 3 pages gone, you should write something along the lines of ‘ I don’t like this, now he’s gonna turn the AT into his Penguin HQ!’ If you’re replying to a post just one or two above yours though, you can use whatever broken sentences fragment you like Razz
To add another thing to the Reply Format: As I said, you can use quote tags, but please keep them to a minimum and don’t quote the quote of a quote of another quote. They may be useful for replying to something a few pages ago, but we’re the AT and not a ladder factory.

Spoiler Format

Where there’s talking, there’s spoilers. Since we do not want to ruin everything for the people who haven’t seen the anime yet, we use Spoiler Tags and since this forum dowsn’t have that function, we just created a workaround. Since the forum’s change to blue, our spoiler tags got a little more complicated. Ideally you should use Firefox to view the AT. If you don’t, it’s not that big of a deal, but GET IT NOW *penguin commanding pose*
For those who do, here’s Yolky’s explanation:
quote:
download Stylish (a Firefox Plugin)

Once installed, there should be an icon in the lower right corner (might have to enable it in options). Manage styles and just copy and paste my code

quote:
@namespace url(http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml);

@-moz-document url-prefix("http://forums.ubi.com/eve/forums") {


BODY {
background-color:#021524 !important;
}

.ev_msg_rowcolor2, TABLE.ev_msg_rowcolor2 {
background-color: #4D88B2!important;
margin: 0px 0px 20px 0px;
}

.ev_msg_rowcolor1, TABLE.ev_msg_rowcolor1 {
background-color: #4D88B2!important;
margin: 0px 0px 20px 0px;
}

DIV.ev_ubbx_tpc {
margin: 10px;
}

}


Always use green spoiler tags:
"Anime Title" Spoilers
Your sentence...

This is how it will look in your window:
 "Anime Title" Spoilers
[color:green]Your sentence...[/color]


If you don’t want to do the change via Stylish, please still post in green, because any other color is still readable and green works for both.

and to contribute something: I have to continue Yu Yu Hakusho. One of our exchange students from Japan recommended it and I watched the first 5 episodes so far. It's cool (most old anime are, I guess --> Vision of Escaflowne etc.) so far ^^

i think it's safe to assume most people are a year older now... considering i think it's been like 10 months or something since the start of the last one. Roll Eyes ... though mine's already been correct. Shady

btw, add me to these:

shippuden
tenchi muyo
full metal panic
moribito
darker than black

All right!A new thread. Cool

So in order to combo break the spam Razz my first post will be regarding the sad news I got today:
-namely Warner brothers has made the making of LAM Akira its top priority. FrownAnd just as I thought that Di Caprio's abandoning the project is ode of joy I get this while drinkin my morning cofee.

In other good news there are new producers for the filming of the LAM version of Voltron,but I dont care cuz Voltron is not that big of a deal. Razz

my age is kinda out of date.
maybe it'd help to post birthday instead of age so that it doesn't need to get updated that often Big Grin

Ok then, if you don't mind, could you add my icon to these:
- Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuutsu
- K-On
- History's Strongest Disciple Kenichi

Is manga also included in the list?

thanks a lot


Awesome thread tho, seems like it'll be a lot of fun Smile

@Rona: Ah, I love the smell of fresh AT in the morning! Big Grin Welcome Back!
I hope your maritime trip was enjoyable.

Just a few requests from "mother" since I didn't get to them before you got back. Please increase my age a year (usually one less than John's) and add my new icon to Clannad and Higurashi. It would look awesome in front of Q's

Arigatou! Big Grin

mine is Feb 27 1992. I know it's longer than just writing down age, but it should spare you from updating from now on.

I'm just looking at all the animes on the list, never knew I watched that much anime all this time. Btw does anyone know if Soul Eater is any good? Is it one those anime's that takes one or two episodes to get really interesting? I just want to know because after I finish watching canaan, I'm thinking about watching that next.

@Rona: Why thank you Big Grin

@Michelle: Many people here like Soul Eater. I fell off the wagon a while ago and been meaning to get back on. Happens with many anime I'm interested in. Action right from the start though. How was Canaan? I'm trying to put together my playlist for this season. Smile

Canaan is great from what I've been watching, my sister actually got me into it so I have to give credit to her. Smile There are 5 episodes out right now and I think episode 6 is out already, I have to check. The anime starts off a little slow in the first episodes but it get's better and more interesting in the later ones. Also, I remember reading somewhere there are going to be 3 Canaan movies to end the anime in October, so I can't wait to see those. Big Grin Oh and the Opening is awesome. So Soul Eater is pretty good? Alright I'm going to try to watch a few episodes of it when I get the time. Wink
