I'm going to have to check out that gangsta show. I adored Black Lagoon and haven't found much else similar that I've enjoyed nearly as much.

It's similar to Black Lagoon in that it has likable characters who also mercilessly slaughter dozens of people in pretty brutal ways pretty much every episode. They don't really have a solid Rock style character in the show though which is one thing I really liked about Black Lagoon. There are a few semi innocent side characters, but everyone is corrupted in one way or another.Czernobog wrote:I'm going to have to check out that gangsta show.

Sounds like it's right up my alley!

CB yeah, but regarding Trigun I've heard the old "It starts out awesome then tails off" from manySano wrote:Just want to say that Cowboy Bebop and Trigun are classics... I don't think I've come across anyone who doesn't like one or the other or both.

I'm decently new to Anime, but I've gotten familiar with other series before I watched Bebop (Sword Art Online, Ghibli films, and a couple episodes of Naruto (really not a fan of that Anime, tbh....lol) being some easy ones). So, that definitely helped.SNESdrunk wrote:I really think it helps to be at least a little familiar with other anime before watching CB, that way it's able to be appreciated more. I remember seeing it way back when on Cartoon Network and didn't understand at all what the big deal was. Then I got familiar with other stuff, and years later I can really appreciate CB - the artwork, backgrounds, pacing, music, among other things... all top notch compared to 99% of other anime.SonicGamer74 wrote:Cowboy Bebop (19/26) - Freaking in love with this series, and everything about it. There's not one thing I hate about this series. It's...weird, but I embrace it fully. Only have 7 episodes to go. Hoping it ends as great as it finishes
Pretty true, honestly. Though, I still hear some people who are pretty mixed on the latter half of Trigun, whereas Bebop is talked about for it's entire run, basically.Sano wrote:Just want to say that Cowboy Bebop and Trigun are classics...

This user really likes SEGA Saturn. Avoid at all costs.

I'm on disc 6 of Death Note and I don't know that I'm necessarily a fan of where the show has gone since the end of the first part of the show. (I'll avoid spoilers but there's a super pivotal point in the story that I think people who have watched the show will know that I'm talking about). It's still super likable but it's gone down from seemingly god-tier in my book.

Don't worry, it picks back up in the last bit. Finale gets epic and I loved the ending.RyaNtheSlayA wrote:It's still super likable but it's gone down from seemingly god-tier in my book.

Fair enough. Trigun does kind of go off into a tangent of sorts.SonicGamer74 wrote:Pretty true, honestly.

I feel like Trigun's tonal shift is better done in the manga (though that thing is hard to read; way too much onomotopeia that obscures the art).

Re: What Anime are you Currently Watching?/Anime Recommendat
I just saw the last naruto movie (that's the actual name) and it reminded me everything i love about that show and everything i hated
In theory is the story on how Naruto and Hinata fall in love... but yeah in the middle there's a battle in the moon with two giants, saving the world from the moon falling and them having a metaphoric connection with a red scarf... yeah you know what are my problems with this movie are the same with the show; it goes WAAAAAAY TOO OVER THE TOP!
At the beggining of the movie i was "oh i should watch naruto again" and at the end "now i remember why i quit that show".
