I want some of the armour. :sigh:
If you hit it and it bleeds, you can kill it. If you hit it and it doesn't bleed...You are obviously not hitting hard enough.

The only anime I've ever watched with any regularity is Avatar: The Last Airbender.  :p

Except that can be argued not to be anime.

If you go with the actual Japanese definition of the word, which is simply "animation," then even Family Guy could rightly be called "anime."  If you go with the general Western definition, "animation produced in/for Japan," then Avatar definitely doesn't qualify, as it was a US-created series.  However, it definitely draws many stylistic and structural elements from anime, which its creators would be the first to admit.  Whatever you call it, it was a terrific show.

I'm not really a fan of the Fate/Stay Night stuff, but then, that's because I'm remembering its Bleached Underpants.

Obviously you've never seen it.  Definitely the best American toon of the last 10 if not 20 years.

Where I fought in many guises,
Many names, but always me.

INCORRECT!

I've been watching Avatar: The Last Airbender for the first time ever. Currently almost done with second season. It's good entertainment for sure. But I wouldn't say it is anime per-se.

Waiting to get off from work in seven hours so that I can watch the latest episode of One Piece. Which is awesome series by the way.

I like Avatar, personally. That aside ...

tl;dr most of the thread.

My watched list is extensive. Mostly mecha and fantasy up there though.

Code Geass is a recent anime, that shat awesomness and bled godlikness. To say the least. It's a much watch, both seasons.

Hayate no Gotoku! just started its second season. It's funny and rife with modern references.

Clannad and its sequel Clannad ~After Story~ are two good anime with pretty good story. It is romance/high school though.

And finally there's Eureka Seven. Its starts out unassuming, becomes freaking awesome, ends on a very, very, very narm moment. Oh, and techno amazing grace FTFW!!!

Firstly, you're using "narm" incorrectly.  And secondly, your blind Geass fanboyism disappoints me. :p

I'll say it again....Gundam 00 is the stuff.  Course anything with a Red, White and Blue mech blowing the hell outta stuff gets a thumbs up from me.  Except maybe Double Zeta, that was just weird.

Holy crap! The animation looks gorgeous.

O_O WANT WANT WANT!

Btw, something is puzzling me here, Archer is using a weapon I do not recognize with complete certainty at the 40 second mark. I want to say Hrunting but Hrunting is used only during Fate/Hollow I thought. *Scratches head*

I'm assuming it's

Spoiler:
at the beginning of the UBW scenario where Saber is fighting Berserker and Archer is only seen from very far away in the novel and lobs an unknown noble phantasm (well, broken phantasm) at Berserker.

Shocking is a few seconds later when

Spoiler:
they show Gilgamesh petting Ilya, considering what happens the instant after.

Spoiler:
A moon with a massive heart and "Renton *heart* Eureka" isn't narm for you? Sure is for me. That scene is listed as narm on on TVTropes anyway.

Okay, so Code Geass is all awesome. It's mostly awesome.

Btw, something is puzzling me here, Archer is using a weapon I do not recognize with complete certainty at the 40 second mark. I want to say Hrunting but Hrunting is used only during Fate/Hollow I thought. *Scratches head*
Could be a crafted weapon. He is You-Know-Who.

"Ore wa Gundam da!" has become the catch-phrase of the year for Gundam fans, apparently.

Spoiler:
Yes, but he can't make weapons, he can only copy them, therefore it must have existed before for him to see it. "My magic isn't creating swords. First of all, I can't do such a skillful thing."

Once me and my friends did a project together at one of their houses. We'd done all we could for the day, so while we waited to be taken home, my friend put on Castle in the Sky. I saw the first half an hour, that's it.

You should really take the time to watch all of Laputa. It's one of the better ones.
