Anime and Manga Thread: Isekai must Die edition

[Poltergeist 27]

Yeah one of my first shows watching it with the mindset of "oh this is an anime" was Claymore. Going from cartoons to seeing people get rekt in a smear of blood was a bit of a shift. Before then I had just regarded shit like Dragonball and Yugioh as cartoons, not a completely different thing

[Sephiroth73003 2]

Devilman Crybaby would have been better if they hadn't focused so much on the hedonistic side of stuff and focused more on some redeeming quality of the devilman. Instead devilman were basically murderous monsters that could barely control themselves if they could at all outside of Akira.

 

They seemed to start hinting more were like that and start going down that plotline, but instead sabotaged it all for more hedonistic sex scenes and violence. The ending was so rushed it was frankly awful.

I grew up with the 90s one but yeah the original version is pretty good.

[Killa 1]

Just recently watched Lupin the 3rd Chikemuri no Ishikawa Goemon

 

 

EPIC

[misterBee 964]

I've got multiple Fujiko Mine figures in my house but I've never seen Lupin. I'm a filthy fraud.

[Killa 1]

You are missing out.

 

Lupin is a classic

[misterBee 964]

Add it to the list of stuff I may never get to because I'm too busy running this place for you guys.

[GreatDarkHero 84]

I need to watch the other Lupin series. Normally that would be something that would interest me.

 

 

 

I tend to prefer things like Cowboy Bebop, Outlaw Star, Death Note, Code Geass (to a degree)...

 

You also can't go wrong with some good ol' Urusei Yatsura. That series is funny as hell.

Damn that Goemon clip was pretty crazy. Was Lupin always like that? I remember watching the series on Toonami and that one had a totally different vibe to it

There are quite a few different versions, each made at different times. You probably watched an older goofier one.

You've never seen Lupin? Go die in a fire B. Watch it all. @misterBee

[Killa 1]

Older Lupin was nothing like that, it was more focused on comedy and heist with some action. But the Goemon movie had crazy action scenes.

 

Its probably the First Lupin i've watched in a few years.

 

Another clip, same movie, just as raw

I've never checked out Lupin yet either and it looks like a lot to get caught up on. Not as bad as catching up to Bleach or One Piece but still a solid two months of watching

[Pastrami 18]

The second series is the one I'm more familiar with. You can check it out on www.toonamiaftermath.com, it comes on in the evening iirc.

Guess it's time to see what else I've been missing...I go on a massive anime binge every six months or so and then chill out while new shows start/finish.  Somehow this must have slipped through the cracks.

[Poltergeist 27]

Anybody watch Overlord? The new episode was fucking awesome.

Rewatched the first season last month.  It wasn't as good as I remember it being the first time.  Feels kind of mediocre now actually.

 

Been watching season 2 and I guess it's ok.  Especially that one episode where you watch lizards have sex like it's the National Geographic channel.

I really don't know why they spent 5 episodes on that shit. It's wasn't even a good plot point and the lizards never show up again. It was stupid.

 

On another note

 

 

Does this work?
