Does anyone know anything about a show called Ghost Hunt? For some reason the boy has really gotten into it. He likes horror stuff, so I'm pretty sure that's why he gravitated to it. Just curious if it's something that's way too inappropriate for him or not.

I haven't seen it yet, but Funimation rates it TV-14.

Feels like it. It just goes on and on, made me laugh. Everything is just so OTT.

Got up to it last night. Felt like 15 seconds it was so good, not 15 minutes. Nyaa

Well, there is no sign of One Piece Collection 9 in the UK and the 400+ episodes over 15 years aren't on Crunchyroll IN THE UK.

Manga UK now aren't releasing Fairy Tail (on bluray) in the UK anymore, just on DVD, after I sat about half a year waiting for Collection 3 to release. So I have ordered a fuckton of Blurays from America but after part 10 - Funimation Blurays are all region locked to A. indecision

I've got a little more Bleach to watch and a little more FOTNS and then I wont have any of these huge whale series left to watch, just these piddling little 13 or 24 episode series.

Can anyone give me the lowdown on Naruto? What series are there and in what order should they be watched?

So Space Dandy is almost completely episodic, with no continuity at all.

Episodes frequently end with them either dying or being stranded. Most of them live with some decent belly laughs or a cool sequence.

I think I have finally burned myself out on anime. I can't seem to get into anything right now.

Watched about half of Episode 1 of Space Dandy. Love the artstyle, but nothing else has grabbed me yet. I'll give it another try later.

I'm saying it was good.

Anyway, the music in the invasion montages kinda sucked. After the hilarious use of German lieders for the ship mutiny I was expecting much better. However, a wehrmacht zombie eating a baby made up for it.

I'm watching Ace of Diamond, which is awesome. I'm a sucker for sports anime. Speaking of which Kuroko S3 premieres in a week or so on my local crunchy.

Blue Exocirst continues to be good, aside from one boring episode about a girl who wont leave a garden.

It's half comic and half serious, there was an episode where they had to calm a cooking ghost LOL. It looks very modern and the English dub is good. It reminds me of the Attack on Titan episodes where they were training to fight the Titans but instead they are training to fight demons and it's a lot more comedy based. The comedy is decent, nothing like as good as properly funny series like FMP FUMOFFU.

On Fairy Tail I have been reliably informed that there are Austrailian Blurays to import, so I will hit up Aspro and Foolz for Blurays at some point angel

Perfect time for Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood.

Not even the music? I'm up to episode 10 on Space Dandy and there have been 2 boring episodes out of 10 so far.

All of them! Baseball (Ace of Diamond), Basketball (Kuroko ERMAHGERD :3 :3), footie (Knight in the Area), even sumo (Notari Matsutaro) and kendo (Bamboo Blade). I already have cycling lined up (Yowapeda).

I've been watching SKET Dance. I had mixed feelings about it at first, but it's really grown on me.

I watched 2 episodes of Shigiru Death Frenzy because I saw a trailer on Funimation that looked good.

It was terrible. It has narration all over the place, with a terrible voice actor then they throw tons of inscrutable Japanese names at you, which you will never remember. And then the series itself is so slooooooooooooooooooooooooooow. It's one of the most boring things I've ever seen. frown

Is there a good tennis one?

That would be Prince of Tennis. Sadly my crunchy doesn't have it so I haven't watched it, but I heard it's pretty good.

Midway through Season 3 of the Legend of Korra, it's a decent series but suffers from having short story arcs of 13 episodes and not having one big story like the Avatar Last Airbender series.
