The Anime Society 5: Tentacles For All!

Been trying to get back into Eureka Seven. Does anyone know when the plot gets going? 13 episodes in and I'm getting bored!

That aside, I've been watching soukou no strain as well. Really recommend it to anyone looking for a good sci-fi anime

Dont bother watching eureka seven, i cant even remember what happens in it but i watched all the eps, in the end i thought to myself why did i watch this? Nothing interesting happens at all

E7 has already been dropping little bits of its plot in the thirteen episodes you've seen, but things don't really come to a head in terms of the overarching plot until much later, from what I remember.

Kudos for watching Soukou, while I wouldn't call it an absolute classic I thought it did a few interesting things, and like a lot of interesting but small titles from the past it seems to be largely ignored nowadays.

Any other really good military/mecha themed anime (with some romance as well) in recent years that I should watch? They're all I've been watching recently

errrmyyygawwd Code Geass has such an epic climax :O

Is season 2 worth the watch though, because loads of people say it was really bad. :L

Just read the manga then use the anime to flesh some scenes out.

Hmm, off the top of my head... from the last ten years or so you could try Zegapain, Macross Frontier or Heroic Age. Oh, and Gundam Unicorn has been pretty solid fun and is very well made, though it's not finished yet. Xam'd: Lost Memories was pretty neat in some respects but rather dropped the ball as it went on, if you ask me. And if you want something utterly silly either Aquarion Evol or Godannar might fit the bill though in rather different ways (Godannar is aimed at bored salarymen who remember older mecha shows, from what I could work out). This list isn't exhaustive.

its worth it imo, 2nd series was pretty much a train wreck but it managed to pull itself together quite well in the end



not a big fan of action manga, so mainly on that reason im gona watch the anime first

Thanks for the recs! Heroic Age looks really good, so I'll go for that next

I'm also obsessed with Attack on Titan.

do u read the manga

I am reading it now, do you?

once the anime finishes, i will start reading it

Get that list moving i've stalled everything at the moment until the last exam on tuesday, i'm already at breaking point
Marathons are fun, I prefer marathoning stuff rather than weekly watching tbh.

WAHOO THAT MEANS YOU'RE FREE NOW My last exam is on the 5th of June, epic crunch time D: Marathons are so much fun you don't feel guilty afterwards when you don't have a pile of work to do. Oh those days are almost approaching.

It does indeed been watching stuff like crazy during the offpeak hours of internet usage (gone over our cap) and been watching the dvds I have until peak time is over.

Good luck

Finished Kuroko no Basket last night, and I seriously cannot contain my excitement for season 2! I don't know whether I should wait for the new season (which starts in Oct!) or if I should just read the manga...
