Anime fan check-in time! (Oct. post)

[Khephra]

Every month I try to check in with the other DUers who are into anime. It's the end of the month, so time for another thread!

I'll just throw out here the anime I've been watching and random thoughts. Please do the same. Any Anime Thoughts you might have, post them.

This is a free-form anime thread.

1. Haven't seen any new stuff lately but

I rewatched FLCL. That's the current bar to pass, in my book.

2. SAIYUKI RULES!!!

Check it out. There are like 12 disks. It starts out slow, but really picks up. The dialogue is great.

5. X

Is very very good. I thought the score was fantastic.

7. I've had "X" for quite some time

but it just seemed like a show that required a lot of attention, so I've put it off.

OH>....!!!

I should add-- FULL METAL ALCHEMIST!

(coming to Adult Swim. It kicks major anime butt!)

6. Will I ever see a better anime than Cowboy Bebob?

No, not likely.

edit -> spelling

8. Samuri Champloo is close

[Khephra]

9. Samurai Champloo

Mugen is a fierce animal-like warrior with a unique break-dance inspired fighting style. Jin has a more traditional style but don’t think of this as a weakness because his skills are amazing. The two contrasting samurai warriors are far from friends, yet their separate paths seem to cross anyways. Mugen is wandering aimlessly through the city when he stumbles upon a teahouse where he meets Jin and Fuu (A ditzy waitress, but don‘t think she doesn‘t have anything hidden up her sleeves). Fuu convinces them both to come with her in search of a mysterious samurai that smells like sunflowers and their journey begins. This modernized hip-hop tale breaks the barriers of the common, historical, samurai anime.
