Yes.

Freedom aka the Cup Noodle Project, due to heavy product placement and funding from Nissin Cup Noodle (More here).

I like it.
The ending of the first episode opened all kinds of possibilities.
But I have yet to watch the latest episodes (I'm stuck after the 4th).
The release schedule is so slow anyway.

Bad news : Otomo has quit the team.

More Maid Guy, which I still find very good.

It brings me a fix of ecchi fun. Much needed since Iketeru Futari, Ebichu and Dokuro-chan are over.

Maid Guy Freeze Voice!

RD Sennou Chosashitsu

Three episodes in and it looks promising. No idea were it will go but it might be an interesting voyage.

I'm on episode 5 with that one. It's very rare in that it's very cyber but has no mecha. Huge plus!!!
I can't wait to see where they're taking it.

Has anybody finished Ghost Hound?
I'm stuck some half-way through it. I should pick it up again.

Up to 5 now and will continue with 6 in a minute. Just when I thought the place looks too clean they started showing the grimy bits.

6 turned out to be boring. I'm seeing 7 tonight.

D.Gray-man #88. It gets better and better.
Bleach #175. It gets worse and worse. I now hate the filler arch.

Binge of the week: Hikaru no Go. yep, because I'm a ten year old.

In other news, Mmemosyne #5. A lot of questions answered which only sets the stage for the 6th and last episode. Next month.

Kurenai #11 also second to last episode, where Shinkuru finally grows some balls. I don't want this to end.......

By the way, Mnemosyne #4 is very Gibsonian. Virtual life, idols and pattern recognition. Life 2.0

I just finished Kurenai #12. The best episode!
This show had first class drama. Excellent dialogs plus some interesting action scenes.
I really wish there was more of this.

feel like stating the obvious, and an idiot, but..

has anybody watched "ghost in the shell SAC" seasons 1 & 2 ?

and which one would you rate the better one, if you're in to rating things? i'm not, but an exeption will be made and the 1st season rated the better, methinks

I actually got my brothers initiated with Ghost in the Shell SAC last year. If I remember well they liked it a lot.
I still haven't seen it. It's on my perpetual to do list.

Tonight's episode: Macross Frontier #12
Zentradi uprising, deculture and Macross!!!!!

I prefer GITS SAC 1st Gig's overall story arc better. I like 2nd Gig's griminess better. I consider it a must-see.

RD Sennou Chosashitsu - up to episode 9. I liked 6, I'm not as hard-boiled as striv. I thought 7 sucked, even though it had some interesting ideas. The cyber-helmet amused me.

GITS SAC 1 is great.
GITS 2nd GIG is worth seeing. though i found the animation was patchy at times, and the plot/characters seemed to lose their way a bit. but the last few episodes made up for it.
and i really should watch both again.

watched the first two films again pretty recently, as i quite often do.

I'm eagerly waiting for the release of the remastered version of the original movie : Ghost in the Shell 2.0.



If it's as good as the new Evangelion : You Are Not Alone, I'll be a happy geek.

From what I read, it's like the new Evangelion : completely redrawn, with modern techniques, but otherwise identical to the original.
