So, I've been kicking around on Hulu for anime to watch. It actually has enough that I've just been poking around, finding things as i go and seeing where my interest takes me.
Tenchi Muyo: War on Geminar
Gotta say, this show fully reminded me of why I used to look forward to Toonami in the afternoons. Leaving aside the shit that is GXP which the current Toonami is airing, the ridiculous comedy and action made me watch all thirteen 45 minute episodes in two days. All the Tenchi formula with mechs and a protagonist that knows how to kick ass? What's not to enjoy?
Psycho-pass
Psychological future horror taking place in a society where mental health can be scanned and quantified, leading to the incarceration of "latent" criminals as well as the wholesale execution of psychopaths. They've got a gun that makes bodies explode, but it's also got a whale of a villain. I can't wait for it to pick up again in January.
From the New World
This is that wonderful "let's fuck up some kids" style of post-apocalypse storytelling. It's already been played out in Japan, which makes the five episodes available on Hulu all the more frustrating. Takes place 1000 years in the future, with some fucked up scenes on what came before playing out in those episodes before the kids lives get overrun.
Towa no Quon
Japanese X-men take. That mostly sums it up, but it was full of action and emotional drama, and I couldn't help but force myself to watch all of the goddamn movies in a row before going to bed.
Frankly, I'd recommend all four of these things. Anybody else with Hulu using it as an excuse to check out the new or old shit that's been around for forever?
