]]>8228Wed, 06 Aug 2008 05:24:49 +0000Macross Serieshttps://swrebellion.net/topic/8160-macross-series/This is from what I watched and a basic summary (and somewhat crappy) and I enjoyed the Macross series since it tries to prove many points. Of course viewers overlooking such points since its anime but it does give you something to think about for those who rather think. I also tried watching it in order so I could understand whats going on and for the most part I still do but still lost in some areas. This series needs to gain more respect like the Gundam series which both prove good points which are easily over looked

 

Macross Zero:

Humans still fight against each other in the 2000 A.C time period. United nation vs Anti-United Nations group near a remote island of Mayan island. It follows a bit into the supernatural area which I saw turn people off but its necessary to get that point across in this Macross series. It questions how us humans were born and what we really fight for. Its worth a watch at least being a 5 episode ova.

 

Super Deformed Fortress Macross (or SDF- Macross) (For the Americans its Robotoech but thats been butchered)

Humans coming across a wreckage from space rebuild the Macross in 1998, then being invaded in the year 2009 by the Zentraedi invaders. The Macross comes underfire and folds out into Pluto's orbit trying to make it to the dark side of the moon after one of its programs went off destroying a few ships with its main weapons. The Macross now makes its way back to earth on the long road of survival.

 

Macross Plus:

Two test pilots compete with one another while their female friend produces a galaxy wide music star, Sharon Apple. The YF-19 fights with a YF-21 (I think) trying to compete for supremacy for mass production.

 

Macross 7:

The power of music being the key focus in the Macross series, it never fails on how strong it binds humanity together. No matter where you go its always music that defines a culture and the person "producing" music in one way or another. In this series Basara (who sings in a Red YF-19, new model) tries to sing from his heart and not for war or self gain. Basara and his Fire Bomber group play their music to please  others the original way where its meant to come from the heart. This understanding unlocking hidden emotions and powers that we as humans never knew about allows us to peacefully be together and talk to each other using musical notes. His allies are ignorant and fight with weapons while his foes are puzzled and seeking spiritual energy (Spiritia) from living organisms like humans who can regrow such energies.

Anyways I came across this and found interesting that a Japanese version would be much better then what was originally shown in Japan and most of the world.

 

http://hi-majin.blogzine.jp/photos/wing_gundam/wg12.html  - Japanese version of "Wing Gundam Zero"

 

http://www.fschobbies.com/scifi/gundam/art/48287.jpg

and the original "Wing Gundam Zero"

 

Well Gundam is also releastic depending on which series you watch (MS Igloo focusing on research). Well its realistic up to a point but still realistic in most aspects.

]]>7084Sat, 30 Sep 2006 19:28:09 +0000Testament Gundamhttps://swrebellion.net/topic/8145-testament-gundam/heh, well its from the Astray (Gundam Seed) storyline and I must say theres some pretty cool hidden mobile suits in there.

 

Heres my favourite one from Astay :P

The stealth system's technology has not yet been revealed, but it does not involve the Mirage Colloid system used by the GAT-X207 Blitz, GAT-SO2 N Dagger N, and AMF-103A DINN RAVEN. Instead, it seems to prevent sensors from registering Testament, but has no effect on the naked eye. It is possible that this is achieved through its Mirage Colloid Virus Spreader system.

 

Spreading viruses to infect enemy fighters and mobile suits? Thats my kind of fighting right there. Toy around with the small fries and have a nice fight with the big boss. Basically go around infecting those in range and shoot on the ones that don't get infected or take too long.

I'm on episode 4 and wanted to say I came across a reference to Kanon where this girl called Ayu. So its random yet it borrows from anime eh. Wonder if the first reference was to NHK. And yes its a 100% random episode.

 

edit: Hey hey now we got a Haruhi reference with the chief thing. Then Shuffle with the chest joke and the hidden behind a curtain from Death Note  ::)

 

Next one looks like its based on AIR Tv from the preview.

Oh and sorry if I sum this up as advertisement but I don't want to spoil it :P

 

Jigoku Shoujo, Hell Girl with three other henchman. A female, a teen male and an old man send people's grudges to hell through accessing Hotline to hell. Every episode shows people's grudges being sent to hell basically showing what humanity do to their enemies. Will they simply degrade themselves or will they finally prevail?

 

100 Tales, a guy who is a book writer in feudal era Japan goes out to write 100 stories of the supernatural. He travels to a Inn and finds a group of strange people trying. Someone who sinned shall perish since sins turn into demons.

 

xxholic, a high school student who is able to see spirits and demons is summoned (by force) to a shop that sells wishes for a price. The price being you must give something precious in return like a watch or something dear to you.

 

 

Well these are fun series and I finished two season of Jigoku. I enjoyed seeing different ways at how people act when stuck in certain situations and how they react to such harmful events. 100 tales is similar that it has a group like Jigoku but they go after inhuman sinners or those who sinned by killing humans. xxxholic is more of a comedy supernatural with the main character resembling that of an adult Hell Girl, Enma Ai.

And here I thought anime was already popular in Europe. Guess not?

]]>8135Wed, 26 Dec 2007 07:49:47 +0000Re: Anime Listhttps://swrebellion.net/topic/8130-re-anime-list/Well instead of posting stuff manually on every bloody forums why don't we just instead leave it on one site to take care of? Well go here, www.myanimelist.net and search for "EuroSubstance" and then add all the stuff you seen and read (anime and manga). That site sorts out your list while keeping in touch with one another and gives you a brief description like that of wiki with pictures (if any). If none add your own :P

 

Not that I'm trying to advertise but I'm just curious what your list consists of for the anime watchers :P

Well this shows the possibilities of deaths and scenarios happening but only one of them is true. Which one is real and which one will effect the village more? Oh and this village is real but if its anime real is still unknown  :P.

I have known about Death Note for months now but have only recently taken the time to sit down and watch any of the episodes in depth. So i thought i might create somewhere that we can talk about the series.

 

Main Characters are L, Yagami-Light, Yagami-san, Misa-Misa.

It has been set in Tokyo, Japan.

 

It is about a Death Note and Death Gods. Watch it here...

 

And if you want anymore information watch it and then discuss it...

 

Substance-san i known you'll love talking here.

12 Episodes. What a sweet anime this is and even though its slow paced thats what makes it a good series. The storyline drags on perfectly telling you bits and pieces of what happens every few episodes. Then it carries on into the Melty Blood game and the movie that I posted before this (Kara no Kyoukai).

 

Basically about a guy named Shiki able to cut things to permanent death with just his naked eye and a knife. Follow the line of destruction and you'll see it destroyed or dead. This power caused him to kill a female vampire and she then followed him around. However its more then that. So I suck at summarizing it right now meh.

Haven't seen it but I did see the series it was based off of. This one takes place in the same time area as Shingetsutan Tsukihime. Its a three part movie thats going to air in Japan on December 1st, 2007, then 29th and then on January 26th 2008. Since its Type-Moon I'm expecting a perfect serious storyline like with the Fate/Stay Night series also.

For those in Canada Ottawa and have Rogers anime on demand can see the first episode on the list on 210 on your Rogers digital. Its pretty cool and her being a Realian or a prototype robot with a "soul" is interesting. Well I still dont know that 100% for sure but from what I seen. If you donno what it is check the 3 games out for PS2 or the anime (or both). Its a cool show/series and reminds me of how humanity is never happy with what they have and have to cause issues.8065Sun, 02 Sep 2007 06:09:27 +0000
