HOLY SHIT someone else who knows of Black Heaven.

Also yeah Boom Boom Sattelites are awesome i bought one of their albums thx to that. Oh and the OP to black heaven was done by John Sykes on of the former members of White Snake if i recall my research right. Took me awhile to find that one to download let alone buy.

Lol...had seen it a few times on torrent sites but only just got to watching it a few weeks ago, idle browsing ftw

Hitman Reborn is just wow so far

I really should start the anime read the first two manga volumes though and have been reading the recent scanlations.

Also right now I'm rewatching Kyo Kara Maoh. Very fun show and as I've said before i LOVE things with demon kings as the main characters.

[Negrido]

Seriously, no one is following Kaiji? Maybe you guys just don't know about the hot women you have been missing out on.


In before "Is this some sort of picnic anime?"

Which part is "wow"? The ridiculous bullet or the fact that the anime itself is like it's made for 6yos and it makes you wanna hit things when you watch it?

EDIT: For the record... I dropped it after the 3rd episode, I know it gets better but I just can't bare the crap in the beginning.

oh god my eyes...

god damned driver updates
Who has windows 7 and for those that do what media player do you use?
The reason i ask is because when i went to update my graphics driver last night it totaly buggered my pc , stopped less than half way in and wouldn't work even after uninstaling the old drivers and i ended up having to reinstal windows which i upgraded to win 7 but now my old media player dosnt work with win 7.

The first 20 episodes don't really have any fighting tbh, for the most part they're just slice of life ones that introduce characters. You could prob watch the first 6-7 then skip to episode 20 and you wouldn't miss anything important.

kamikorosu!

Download K-Lite codec pack and use media player classic it's the best media player out there and plays 720p/1080p with the best of quality any media player can give you.

Nah i'd say he should go CCCP it was updated for windows 7 compatibility last year and is generally considered one of the best things out there for anime fans. Oh and i upgraded to it from k lite.

[Evilmaniac]

CCCP gave me a lot of errors with certian video encodes. I had to use it to watch Saint Knight tale, and when I finished that they upgraded K-lite to support that encode, but CCCP doesn't seem to have a continuous support so I won't use it unless I absolutely have to. Either way though stick to Media Player Classic. It's a separate program by itself from any of these codec packs.

Really strange i ahd more problems with k lite myself.

[Evilmaniac]

On topic though I'm downloading A-channel I hope it ends up good. I picked it up cause the preview reminded me of Lucky Star.

[Lagwin]

I've been using the CCCP for years and never had a problem, my media player was The core media player free version and that had been working fine until win7, tried media player classic and didn't like the way it functioned so i just downloaded the VLC media player and that works brilliantly. but thanks for the suggestions.

[Evilmaniac]

I heard it got upgraded recently, but back when I used it I could tell it deluded quality from HD videos and it was a lag fest trying to play FMA Brotherhood in 720p. And don't even get me started with the problems in 1080p.

Yeah it was works great these days and i think i had some trouble with win7 at first but now it works great. Just gotta get the new version

[Nixi]

Although I try to vary and watch all kind of anime my favorites have to be Fairytale, Amagami SS and Angel Beats and Beelzebub seems to be coming thoughter nicely.
Btw anyone else excited after seeing that Gintama is airing again? One last thing is Ergo Proxy any good thinking of watching this weekend?

Huh...it's my old CCCP and MP always worked fine with HD encodes very occasionally there would be a standard def video that wouldn't play but that seemed to be an encoding problem(get a whole series and maybe 1 or 2 vids didn't work) even back when i was using a single core processor it never troubled me.
The main reason i asked was because i was getting lag from every other program apart from classic and couldn't change the audio or sub tracks, could do it on classic but it was an irritating way to do it.

Anyway whats the opinions of the new crop of anime so far?
