General Anime/Manga/Otaku Thread

I used to watch a good bit of anime, but I kinda grew out of it. Now I can tolerate a series if it's short and I'm watching with friends to riff on it some. (Really want to get back into that >_>)

Here's all the anime I've seen: (WARNING: I did a bad job updating my list)

You should try watching Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood it has a completely different story from the original anime, because it directly follows the manga. The first 13-14 episodes are basically the same, but the events and deaths are very different from the first anime.

I have, as I've said before I'm bad at updating that list.

I thought that would be the case, but no harm in asking.

I often hear from K-On fans that some of them despise the anime but like the manga, so I may give it a shot one day.

I might then watch the anime myself to see what's the deal.

After Nichijou. Can't watch too many series at the same time :P

If you guys ever want a complete parody on Superhero tropes that's poorly animated but really hilarious, try out Astro Fighter Sunred.

With this, I'm still watching Nichijou which remains as funny as ever. Plus, that animation.

Can someone suggest to me animes that are similar to Fullmetal Alchemist and Naruto, because I have a hard time watching stuff without action and I don't know very many animes.

Also searching "shonen" helps.

Some action animes I would highly suggest are Darker Than Black, Cannan, and Blood+ all really good animes, personally I like Darker Than Black the most out of all of them.

You want some action? Alright, let's name a few.

Fate/Zero - While the first episode is full of just exposition, the engaging story and great actions scenes start to appear afterwords with beautifully animated work done by Ufotable. If 7 Mages with 7 servants fighting to the death with both physical combat and magic that also has depth to the story interests you, check it out.

Baccano - Want a show with immortals, gangsters, and explosions all packed in a non sequential order that's set with a Jazzy beat? This show is for you .

Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann - Do you want to say "Fuck Physics, I have a drill that will pierce right through you"? Something so energetic full of life with Super Robots going at it interest you? Try this show if so.

Katanagatari - Prehaps a something a bit more obscure with a unique art style that executs it's familiar story in an interesting way? Something that involves some pretty awesome swords with each having their own effect? This Gatari would be for you.

Thanks for all the suggestions I shall check them out soon.

Just re-read the Dot Hackers Twilight Saga, I love those so much, despite their cheesitude.

Does anyone know of any news about a continuation or maybe a sequel to the Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood anime/manga?

[Mass Distraction]

There's no manga named "Brotherhood", it's just Fullmetal Alchemist. Also, the series kinda ended so that there is no sequels needed. I think it's a good thing, otherwise they'd risk the chance of the series getting bland.

I don't believe so, and even if, I'd rather there not despite enjoying the series. The story was concluded well and I agree that if it keeps going on for longer, it may become bland.
