No, you see. I'm caught up to One Piece. Originally, i watched it in English (yes, the horrible 4Kids dub) back in the middle of the last decade. Around 2007 the Funimation dub took over on Toonami, but then One Piece was canceled off of Toonami after episode 165, in the Skypiea Arc.

I started streaming episodes in my Freshman year of college (2008, only about half a year after the Funi dub was canceled), starting from 166. I "caught up" to the Japanese broadcasts in November 2010 about 300 episodes later.

However, there were the episodes i'd watched in the butchered 4Kids dub, and even the Funi dub is still toned down in some sectors. So I *also* started from episode 1, usually as a treat around final exam time in my first 5 semesters, and got up through the end of Drum Island. Recently (before i got fired from my last job) i picked it up again because i was unsure of when they would increase my hours and cut me off from a chance of watching anime. So now i'm at episode 115, with 51 to go before i've come full-circle at last.

Fairy Tail is pretty good if you don't stress the plot too much, and just soak in the action and the lovable characters. Helps if you enjoy a bit of fanservice, too.


Ahh my bad ;x. Yeah I first started watching OP when they aired it on TV as well - afterwards dropped out of it for like 8+ years and started watching it again.

I'll check out Fairy Tail in that case ;p.

Anyways...one more ep and I'll be finished with Shakugan No Shana season 3~

I never watched the 4kids dub.  I remember the kids at summer camp singing the theme song.  I told them to stop singing that crap and to go watch Naruto.  This was back when Naruto was amazing.

Kind of want to start YuruYuri, but i fell back into One Piece, which even where i stand i need 50 more episodes to the point where i'll have seen every episode in Japanese

Ongoing uncertainty about my employment complicates things. I'd rather not start something I can't finish.


One piece doesnt seem like it wont be ending anytime soon.

 

I'm like 8 episodes off before completely catching up to the latest episode.


I'm thinking about starting another long term anime series, thinking about Bleach since it "ended" but I also Naruto which I originally stopped after episode 100 on the original version ;x.

Thinking about Fairy Tail because it was also cancelled. Maybe I should watch Gintama.


Bleach is a great series.

I put it up there with DragonBall Z & GT & Trinity Blood & Full Metal Alchemist/Brotherhood & YuGiOh/5D's.

Dat was hardcore XD.

 

I watched the 4Kids dub and stopped afterwards l0l. Didnt realize there were full blown streaming sites until a few years ago and started watching them *-*!

I remember trying to catch up by watching like 10-15 eps a day. It was crazy lol.

 

Anyways...almost done with Shakugan No Shana.....its been months but I just havent been watching that much anime lately @_@. Although I would say the music is amazing and no wonder since the composer is the same as the one who did Shadow of the Colossus!

Yeah, I tried my best with those kids.  Now the kids don't even know what anime is O_O (Sad cause I remember one of the girls was talking to her sister mentioning they had to watch Gundam Seed and Inuyasha).

I went on an anime watching binge for a bit.  I only finished one series though (Battle Girl Time Paradox).  I'm two episodes from finishing Dragon Crisis.  I'm on the seventh episode of Maoyuu Maou Yuusha.  I'm 2 episodes from finishing Tenchi GXP.  Still making my way through Dragon Ball, Z, Kai.  Finished the tournament story in Yu Yu Hakusho.  Two episodes from finishing Host Club.  A few episodes in for Attack on Titans.  Bought a few anime at Anime North.  Then I stopped and went on a "Must finish games" binge.  I'm on the 3rd disc of Blue Dragon...

So who's gonna see Pacific Rim 3D?

It has a the most extreme 3D effect I have ever seen for the theater format (before they re-format the 3D effect for 3D Blu-Ray & TVs & so fort).

And the 3D effect in the theater format of this 3D movie makes the screen look a million times bigger.

 

Imagine a 1,000 to 5,000 inch screen.
