The Anime Society Thread 6

I'll probably finish reading Blaster Knuckle tomorrow, so does anyone have any other manga recommendations for me? As usual, the *only* things I'm fussy about is that I want a short (less than 9 volumes) series, that's not ongoing, and either available on Kindle in the UK, or completely unlicensed. Genre doesn't matter.

So i've slowed down drastically on the viewings, mainly driven by my headphones getting semi-broken so it's impossible to use them for an entire episode. On the bright side it's given me a chance to try and get back into the visual novel for Clannad that I never finished. Enjoyable but looks seriously long

As usual I'm useless to ask about licensing/availability, but I can make suggestions!

Hmmmm that was harder than I thought - I seem to be reading a massive amount of ongoing /long series & large quantities of BL/doujinshi at the moment.......most of which I haven't been keeping track of on MAL....whoops

Well, one of the perils of becoming a mother, it would seem, is the lack of any free time for myself. When I went onto maternity leave from work, I thought I was going to have more time to watch anime... How wrong I was.

So, yeah, gone are the days where I would averagely watch 30+ series in a given season, I'm now struggling to marathon through Shirobako alone (what a great show, I should have kept this one on when it was airing). But yeah, as mentioned in AJ's season preview thread, I'm planning to change all that tonight, now that Alyssa is fast asleep, by sampling as many first episodes as possible! Wish me luck!

Good luck! I look forward to finding out what you decide to keep watching.

I've watched more anime over the past three days than I have done in a long time (mostly Slayers Next and Eyeshield 21), since the 23rd of January is now a week away, and I've got a 5th milestone to reach. Less than a day's worth of time needed to get there now, so I can take it easy.

Oh, you're not too far off the infamous skeleton badge. Impressive considering you've largely avoided the longer running anime. I enjoyed watching Eyeshield 21 when it aired.

On another note, I'm glad to see that you're still posting here. Cara too. Seems like most of the regulars of old have moved on. I still chat to Keoje and Euge on Skype pretty regularly, less so recently. I also have Jehuty and Yuuki on there as well, but we rarely chat.

Edit: I should also mention the new thread! If it weren't for that feature that tells you where your friends post (or people you follow, very 'Twitter'), I wouldn't have known about this thread. So, we finally managed to get over the 10,000 post barrier. Took us long enough. It'll probably take another 5 years until the next thread.

It's not like I've been short on other options.



I'm not going anywhere, if anything I'm trying to be more active this year. Nice to have old members drop in every now and then, since I'm not really in contact with any of them outside of TSR, but I do wish they'd stay for longer.

I'm hoping the current thread won't be around anywhere near as long, it's off to a good start at least.

I'm definitely going to get the Clannad VN but I've got a massive backlog of other things to read first so I'm waiting for a sale for the time being.

but is this a spoiler free zone? o.o

I feel like i've spent an eternity here these past 3 years i'm the new breed of the old members surely that counts for something

New season, new avatar

Anybody know if Ajin is any good? Not a fan of the CG but apparently the story is very good.

I may check it out or just take a look at the manga.
