General Anime/Manga/Otaku Thread

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 know that, I just said it to keep it short and I think they could continue on to show their journeys from the East and the West.

Is Xiaolin Showdown an anime? Just wanted to know.

I think it was made in Canada.

I looked it up, It's American. So it could be from Canada. I also found out Tom Kenny is in it.

Short answer: No.

Xiaolin Showdown may not be an anime but it's still a good damn show from what I remember.

I dislike american cartoons that try to be an anime and just fail hard (not Xiaolin Showdown). It's just annoying.

I'm listening. Tell me more about this.

Anyways it really depends on which anime nerds you talk (Which most of them won't) to whether or not something like Xiaolin Showdown is anime or not. (And the context.)

I was saying in general from the ones I have seen they are kind of stupid.

The handful episodes of Avatar seemed fine to me and I didn't have a problem with Teen Titans.

Though as you can tell by my username, I'm sure you know which I prefer.

Teen Titans was just one piece of gold in a sea of fools gold. I myself absolutely loved Teen Titans and Avatar, but for the most part american animes just don't catch my interest. Then again I am just one man.

Examples of the ones you're referring to please.

[JiraiyaSennin]

I don't know their names, because they don't interest me. I don't try looking at something if it doesn't interest me. Like country music for example, it doesn't catch my interest, so do you think I am going to know the names of country songs? No, because they don't catch my interest.

Finally caught up with Oyasumi Punpun, which has to be one of the most intriguing slice of life I have read. Asano's common themes of the harsh reality of adolescence, dependence on others, and fulfilling ones own desire are present in this work as well and are handled quite well. No series has ever made me go from laughing like a mad man to being dead silent over what I had just witnessed in this cynical work.

Saichi has to be my favorite character, though -

Spoiler

I was not a fan of her sexual relationship with Punpun.

I just learned that there is a Devil Survivor 2 anime AND that there is a plan to make a Persona 3 movie. Some more stuff to add to my watch list.

Oh, and the Devil Survivor 2 series is made by the same people who did the Persona 4 animation which I personally loved. Now I just need to watch the series I'm watchign right now to the end so I can start new ones.
