Drifter Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 (edited) Saiyuki- For an anime with decent production values and cool visuals, that was about a journey... it never actually went anywhere, and became frustratingly redundant and ultimately shit Edited February 9, 2017 by Drifter Quote
Keth Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 Im going to neg the FUCK out of yalls cynicism today. Quote
The NZA Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 oh we're doing this for real? Van Helsing - was alright but ended like butt, i really should've stuck with the OAV's FLCL - just kinda wasted my time, and not in a fun way. see also: dead leaves & the dirty ground, when i know you're not arouuuuund i more didn't care for these than hated them, though Quote
Da Cap'n 2099 Posted February 9, 2017 Author Posted February 9, 2017 Oh, this thread is for real. High School of the Dead. So much promise. So much gratuitous under-panty/boobage shots. Quote
Drifter Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 Van Helsing - was alright but ended like butt, i really should've stuck with the OAV's Did you mean Hellsing? Quote
The NZA Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 yeah, that one! ended in a mess - but again i think it was you that told me to hit up the OAV's Quote
Keth Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 Did you watch the original? Hellsing Ultimate is way cooler... Granted I never finished that one. Quote
C_U_SPACECOWBOY Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 Makai Tensho. Released here as "Ninja Ressurection" and advertised as a sequel to Ninja Scroll, which it is NOT. Quote
Da Cap'n 2099 Posted February 9, 2017 Author Posted February 9, 2017 Yup. Totally agree with that one. Quote
Drifter Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 (edited) The Hellsing TV series that ended with that weird vamp named Incognito was a total mess. The reason for it was that the Anime was made before the Manga had even gotten half-way to finished... the anime tv show was making it up as they were going along, like Lost. The Hellsing Ultimate OVAs are far more faithful to the manga and are very decent, and they have Nazi Vampires! If you Youtube 'Hellsing Ultimate Abridged' you will be rewarded with an even better version too. And yeah, "Ninja Resurrection" had nothing to do with the award winning Ninja scroll and was just marketing by the American distributor because the main characters of each of those animes were based on the same historical character,Yagyū Jūbei Mitsuyoshi. The shit anime that will always be dear to my heart was the first true anime that I ever saw, uncut and subtitled. Harmagedon: The Great Battle with Genma. It was total shit, completely psychedelic and so alien that I was intrigued as to what the hell kind of section I had wandered into in my local independent video rental store... I next rented their copies of Bubblegum Crisis and was hooked, saw the contact info for Animego after the credits and sent away for their catalogue and the rest is history... I had officially fallen into the world of real anime and not some American re-cut or dialogue changing dub for western TV, it was 1993. Edited February 13, 2017 by Drifter Quote
