For some reason, it seems as if for the past week or so, my brain has not been on anime…to some extent. Sure, I finished Noir and Peacemaker Kurogane in that time, but I haven’t been able to figure out howI should go at reviewing them. Shall I take the lazy route and do one big review of the series, or should I be a good otaku and review every episode like a man…WOman…
I suppose the only way to go is to do one big review, and then singular reviews for either one…although Noir was by far my favorite out of the two, I should go ahead and do so when my mind is off video games and the occasional game of Kickball which I love so much. Work, life, getting ready for college, it;s taken mt over, making me most insane in the mainframe, but I will survive, and knock on wood to get this review done….tommorow….
Sorry….lazy Otaku equals no fun.

came over to poke. I think you should do peacemaker kurogane. I watched that around 2 years ago, i think and liked it due to the shinsegumi (can’t spell) and the nice sword action.
Can’t wait to see your reviews and thanks for the comment at the forums ^+^

Yeah, I’m probably going to do both. Might as well. I should do each one at least 2 episodes per week. Peacemaker was one great series. Okita is awesome.

and i am glad u are touching on old series. In fact, i am touching on Aria (which is practically very untouched by anyone, considering the vintage is 2005, wtf). But i guess the series isn’t for everyone and i am not a keen fan of action (except for a selected few)
Quite sad that anime that were good are abandoned by most, huh ? I wish that more people will touch on them but I guess i can always start
Side issue: Because of aria, i learnt how to download in irc, rofl..(is a tech idiot, can only write, the site that i have was done by my friend)

Yeah, I find that old series are more enjoyable sometimes becasue they rely a lot on plot, and not just fancy graphics and cool fight scenes. Most of the “old school anime” I’ve seen are so much more deep and thought provoking than newer stuff. I mean, just look at Serial Experimental Lain, that series is quite “old” but it makes me think a lot more than Bleach.

hmm, dont remind me of Lain. I had severe nightmares for 2 nights thinking about psychoanalysis (i was studying that and the collective unconscious by Jung the day before).
It’s really impactful.
*complains about me doing something stupid and messed up my own blog template somehow*
That said, if you like thought provoking anime, i fully recommend haibane renmei. It’s really just beautiful.
