New Anime Season

[Klaudandus]

bummer, just noticed that yer in Germany. It's available to watch on hulu.com but don't think it will let you watch them from overseas.

Hulu actually has a bunch of series, including one of my favorite american cartoons ever -- Exosquad.

[Skye1013]

Yeah, I've looked into Hulu, and it is indeed not available. Also, thanks to various laws and whatnot, a lot of stuff that gets put on youtube (like some series I've watched on there back in the states) are blocked.

For things unlicensed in your country, more often than not torrents and fansubbers will serve you right.
For things licensed, avaiability and legality of the whole thing drops down significantly D:

[Skye1013]

Aye, I'm sure with minimal digging I could find them, I just haven't taken the time to do so. Hulu would just have been an easy source.

[Fivelives]

I've heard different opinions about it, and honestly the only reason I haven't watched it is because I haven't taken the time to hunt for downloads.

It's on Netflix.

Netflix is another thing that doesn't work everywhere

[Fivelives]

Yeah, I know. I thought Skye1013 was in the US though.

http://www.funimation.com/fullmetal-alc ... rotherhood - watch it (dubbed) online. Funimation usually has pretty good reversions of anime, and I'm pretty sure it's available worldwide.

http://www.sidereel.com/Fullmetal_Alchemist_Brotherhood - another place to watch it online. Not sure if it's available outside the US, though.

http://www.animeseason.com/hagane-no-renkinjutsushi/ - not sure if it's available outside the US, but if you're a sub snob, here it is subtitled instead of dubbed.

There's a lot I could write about this having had this conversation about a thousand times dating back to rec.arts.anime on Usenet, but let's just agree there is no call for pejoratives on either side of the debate.

[Skye1013]

If it's not obvious that it's dubbed (ie. mouths not lining up with the words) then I don't have an issue with it (unless there are annoying voices, but that can work both ways.) Subs are fine as well.

It wasn't meant as a pejorative.

This is the first season in ages I have nothing to watch...

I looked through the releases and nothing catched my eye, anyone got any good ones to watch?

(and I still want more of Eve no Jikan!!!)

[Sabindeus]

right now watching Tiger & Bunny and Steins;Gate though those are both shows that have ended recently. (Which is why I am now watching them!)

Tiger & Bunny is amazing, absolutely watch that

Steins;Gate I think is a bit slow for me. I read a bunch of manga chapters, enough to get to the interesting story bits, but the anime just takes so god damn long to get anywhere... it is demoralizing.



cue Klaudandus coming in to go nuts about how good steins;gate is

[Klaudandus]

Yeah, Steins;Gate is definitively slow paced, I'll give you that, specially the first half. And it's not like Steins;Gate is the greatest thing since sliced bread, but I thought it was a really solid sci-fi anime, specially because it deals with stuff I love (time travel, alternate universes, string theory and conspiracy theories). Not sure if this counts as me going nuts about how good Steins;Gate is or not. At the time, I thought it was amazing because I havent seen many good sci-fi animes. After a 2nd watching, it does feel quite slow, but still enjoyed quite a bit.

I never mentioned Tiger&Bunny cuz I thought that one was obvious... *shrugs*

i tell my friend "holy shit Tiger & Bunny is amazing" and he's like "it's been the talk of the town" and I wonder how the heck do I keep missing these amazing serieses

[Arjuna]

Cheers, I'll check them out!

I'm basically all alone into anime at my age over here...got no friends that I even can talk about it to, and the local anime gangs are all half my age...I feel illegal just talking to them...
