Anime/Manga - Discuss Japanese cartoons and comics here; NO CULTURE WAR DOOMPOSTING!

Is that the "Ohayo Girls are super cute" anime? I saw it but didn't add it to my list
 
Just off the top of my head:

Golden Boy
Neon Genesis Evangelion
Azumanga Daioh
Excel Saga
Puni Puni☆Poemy
Super Milk-chan (there's two dubs, watch the one where Tetsuko, the robot, sounds like a smoker)
Nerima Daikon Brothers
Blue Seed
Nadia: Secret of Blue Water
Dragon Half
Ushio & Tora (their successor, Sentai, did a dub for the TV series and made sure Brett Weaver returned as Tora)
Ghost Stories
Cromartie High School
Nurse Witch Komugi-chan
Di Gi Charat
Gunsmith Cats
Princess Tutu
Gantz
Shadow Skill
AIR
Kanon
Chrono Crusade
Colorful
New Cutey Honey

Have fun.
Correct me if I'm wrong but weren't most if not all of ADVs dubs handled by a few ADR directors? Could be wrong but I think a recall a few notable ones around the era and tbh part of me thinks that newer dubs suffer the most not because the new VAs are any worse (aside from being addicted to twitter), but there's no one new of any note on the ADR side and some of the old guard who are still making stuff are losing there touch for it.
 
Excel Saga
I always like to bring up that voice acting Excel is so physically taxing that the initial voice for her needed to be replaced by another person halfway through the production of the show. For those who have watched the show, I'm sure I won't have to explain why.

Also the OP and ED are amazing.

This is also a good excuse to post some ADV trailers, because they did some damn good trailers.

 
The Boy and the Heron won a Golden Globe, the first I believe for an anime film. I would argue that both Suzume and The Boy and the Heron will probably be nominated for the Academy Awards. What are your thoughts? Do these films deserve the nomination? I liked both and I really can't say the West brought much stiff competition (some possible contenders: Super Mario Bros., Robot Dreams, and Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse).

Haven't watched it yet, there's no downloads for it except a camrip and I'm not watching that.
 
So finished season 1 of Full Metal Panic. It's a full head rush. The last few episodes are mental, shooting at a Ticonderoga class cruiser with the big cgi sub, Chidori taking control of the sub with her mind, and Sousuke taking out that bad guy that should have died like five times already. I rate it 20/10. Fantastic

I might be the only person to think this, but Junji Ito’s Black Paradox is better than Tomie and Uzumaki. Gyo is super overrated, too. In fact, Gyo isn’t very good at all.
 
That might be the point. It plays off in both manga and OVA like a Z-grade movie.
Could be that that's the case. I just found the whole premise of farting fish monsters on crab legs to be quite dumb, and not in the way of other Ito premises. It's probably closest to Hellstar Remina in tone, but I thought that was much better. It was by far the least interesting and impactful of all his major works that I've read, but it could just be that I found the fart gas stuff to be crass.

oscars jury are disneyfags, most of them don't even watch that category and just pick the rat company out of inertia and brand recognition, or they remember their kids watched it.
 
Wow, the magical girls are out for blood while Utena is following proper BDSM safety etiquette. She goes out of her way to use candle wax that melts at a lower temperature to prevent harming the girls. If it wasn't for the wax body double she would've been killed by the yellow one.
