The Anime Society 5: Tentacles For All!

#Does anyone know any good Anime games?

The only games based on anime series I've played have been doujin games for the PC - Higurashi Daybreak and Rozen Maiden ALiBAT stuck out as my favourites, though Fatal Fake and Haruran 2 (can't find much info on the latter) were good too. Must have gotten those during my 1st or 2nd years of undergrad, around 2007-8 *feels nostalgic* I've not really looked into doujin games since then, aside from the browser-based Attack on Titan game I posted a video about a while back, but there's probably a whole load out there. :yes:

As for anime-style games that aren't based on any series, Carpe Fulgur have released three good ones in English (Recettear is probably one of my favourite PC games ever, and I should probably get around to finishing the other two). The only other one I've played is Cherry Tree High Comedy Club... which I wouldn't recommend highly. Too easy, and the 'localization' is painful - the game is obviously set in Japan, but the translation insists otherwise, and comes up with cringeworthy excuses for (or simply ignores) things like the cherry blossoms, shinto shrines and kimono. :s:

What's everyone's top anime opening?
I don't mean just the song, I mean how well it fits the opening in general as in how it fits with the scenes while the song is in progress. =l

Not sure whether it's my favourite, but certainly the first one that springs to mind is the Maria Holic OP. A fantastic animation sequence, and the music fits it perfectly. :biggrin:

Also, Yuuki, damn it, I don't know why but I love your avatar's animation! :^_^:

I tried when I joined TSR to get Tails (Miles Prower) winking but I then found out I couldn't add animated avatars (or any avatars) to TSR unless I subscribed. =(

I REALLY needed to get that off my chest! XD

You can *technically* change your avatar as a non-subscriber here, though the limits are very low (50 x 50 pixels, 25 KB). In fact, TSR even has pre-uploaded anime avatars available, though they're pretty bad (IMO), and all from older series (nothing newer than 2002/03, I'd guess, which is probably the last time they were updated). :p:

I think the only ones I've ever seen anyone use are Kakashi from Naruto and Mizuho from Onegai Teacher!

So yeah, you might be better off finding your own. :giggle:

Anyone know where I can find the Blue Exorcist Illistration Booklet(s)?!
If I manage to find the booklet by itself, I will gladly buy the Region B blu ray coming out in the UK soon, IT IS THE MOST DESIRED THING for me in that limited edition! DX

Does this make me weird?
This is the only limited edition of any anime I want but it is so damn expensive!!!

I will buy everything else individually if I have to (Music CD and Blu Ray anime series) - I need that book, the art is so awesome!

Snow fairy for fairy tail. It's just an amazing song that really sums up the show.

My favourite ending for an anime has to be from samurai champloo (the second ending)

Thank you

Although I can't remember where I got it from, think it was from Aiko but I am not sure :redface:

Also I just read a spoiler for the latest episode of SNK on youtube, why did I scroll down :-(

I watched School Rumble this weekend, and wouldn't call it ecchi. :p:

Still, here's a few to consider. :smile:

B Gata H Kei

Love Hina

Gokusen

Hatsukoi Limited

Tenshi na Konamaiki

School Rumble is one of the best comedies I've ever watched. (maybe I havent watched that many anime to say that). Some funny moments with Kenji :biggrin:

I've watched plenty of comedy series, and would still rate School Rumble highly. :yes:

Have to say I preferred the manga, but that might just be because I read it first, so seeing the same jokes a second time around in the anime wasn't the same.
