The Anime and Manga Thread v47

I'm not sure how popular Trigun was in America before it got on Adult Swim. Had the unfortunate timing of coming out around the same time as Cowboy Bebop.
Outlaw Star came out around the same time too and had massive exposure via Toonami during its prime.
 
Nonexistent in Asia? I remember watching it in late 90's, early 00's. Never religiously though.

I would still watch this from time to time if I I'm bored:


I was thinking more of Japan. I have cousins who live there and they don't really know this or Hellsing. Cowboy Bebop is considered a masterpiece in America but not really in Japan. Did you watch Big O?

I stayed in Singapore for half a year. I saw Basilisk and some obscure series called Samurai Deeper. Those series are non existent in America. It's been so long and it is a bit of a blur. I don't even recall if I saw it dubbed or subbed.

Tbf, most japanese are more anpanman/doraemon type casuals which is probably unheard of in the US. Never watched Big O.
 
Vinland has really been dragging this season. I hope it picks up the pace next episode.

Vinland is back? How many episodes in are they? Was waiting for this one to return, but since you're saying the pace is a little slow I may just wait until the season is complete...

That particular arc is painfully slow. Some character developments here and there but don't expect some season 1 action.

On episode 5 I think
 
Outlaw Star was a banger

too bad it’s so dated
They saved a lot of the budget for the final fight in the last episode, and it really shows in some of the earlier episodes. Still loved it when I re-watched it a few years ago (have it on DVD from back when that was a thing).
 

Whoa I have no idea what this is. I am a lowest common denominator normie shonen enjoyer. I get shocked by hardcore anime stuff. Like I visited this girl's room one time in college. She had body pillows and her whole room was posters, figurines and she even had boylove stuff. Whole night she must be thinking I was some lame. I was just like oh yea I love anime. I don't know any of the series she was talking about. I googled some of her stuff later and it was incest stuff.

You meant Samurai Deeper Kyo? The anime was trash because they don't really follow the manga, and introduced some weird time traveler character but the manga itself is pretty good althought it does have some holes.

LOLOLOL. My older bro used to watch that weird stuff. I like the op though, very catchy. I only watched S1 because my bro said it's good and funny. From what I can remember, the ending of final season is they marry lololol.
