Current anime/animation experiences

I have given Fullmetal Alchemist (the original series) three episodes, and that's one more than I gave Bleach, and it doesn't have me, so, I'm stopping. I will give the new version of the series a try.

And I had thought 07 Ghost had me with the first episode--military-in-training BFF boys! Lost amnesiac royalty! He-killed-my-dad revelations!--but then episode two changed the setting and started inserting the supernatural stuff in handfuls, and that's a story I no longer care about so much.

Who was it who asked me to check out Soul Eater? I watched the first episode. It's cute and well-done! But it's not dark enough to hold me. (No, I can't explain why something needs to be "dark enough" and yet I can't get enough of Chi's Sweet Home/Chi's New Address. The rest of you are free to tell me why.)

Those of you gleeful that I'm watching Avatar, I've finished the first season and am squee-dancing as I wait for more discs to arrive. It's wonderful.

Back to mainlining Hikaru no Go. I've read the manga and am reliving the joy and tears all over again now that I'm watching the anime. (The manga's so huge I can't even remember how some of this s**t goes down and I'm on the edge of my seat every episode. That's a series.)

Have you seen any Le Chevalier D'Eon? I'm watching that at the moment and really enjoying it. Cross dressing hero? Mercury-filled zombies? It's a sure fire winner :D!

Darnit, I had that page open at one point and did not get to it! Thank you for reminding me that I want to check that one out!

*sporfles over your icon*

Hooray! I'm glad I accidentally reminded you :D. It's pretty awesome. The costumes are gorgeous! I was going to cosplay possessed!D'Eon at a con in August...I love his costume so much, but he's really not the best character in it and I didn't want to walk around as him all day!

So I'm going as Char Aznable from my icon instead. Haha, I have no idea where the text comes from, but it makes me laugh so much. I'm glad it made you laugh too. I never thought I'd like anything with mechs in, but Mobile Suit Gundam 0079 is probably my favourite anime right now. Oh man, I think I might have to have sex with myself when I'm dressed as Char, he's so fantastic *fans self*
