Obligitory Animes Thread

[Ghengis_John]

I'm always disgusted of romance anime that's quick to ecchi-hentai harem nonsense. Merely because you can predict them and the scenarios to come. However, Ore Monogatari!! is something different. I see two true bros who got each others back and a girl who will make you say: be my waifu! After watching the anime and reading the manga, I hope it keeps wowing me.

Gotta agree. It's a shoujo series I hear but it's got a huge amount of crossover. There was some discussion about it's demographics before it went to anime (never read the manga but the numbers caught my attention) and discussion about how it had similar cross over values to Nisekoi (a harem shonen with a large amount of female readers). I can see why, from the first couple episodes Ore Monogatori looks like quality stuff.

I've had my share dabbling around harems only to get burnt out. Even reverse harems at times disappoint me when I wanted a different approach. I'm not fond of seeing fanservice every time, because it corrupts my true intentions: watching for a good romance story. I usually stay away from harem genre because of that. I am curious about Nisekoi after watching the first episode, and I hope it doesn't have any ecchi nonsense later on.

Anyone here watches/reads One Piece?

At the beginning,i was very hesitant because of the terrible character designs.It's pretty obvious that Eiichiro Oda focuses on Comedy as a very huge aspect of the series,which i do understand.However,comedy + anime was never my thing.But my friends kept on telling me to at least give it a try, so i did.

I have to say that Oda is an excellent writer.Despite the bad character designs (imo),the story is very interesting.And the foreshadowing is probably the best thing Oda pulls off.I'm currently at episode 266 (Water 7 Arc) and it seems promising.

Although most character designs are 'meh' , i really like Nico Robin & Boa Hancock (Spoiled myself on that one T-T):

Spoiler

Another 2 characters that i really like are Mihawk & Chopper :

Spoiler

I'm yet to see Mihawk in Action :l And i hear that his first battle (real battle,not counting the child-play with Zoro) is in the episode(s) 400~ish.
A bit far but i hope he lives up to the hype.
