RE: Anime/Manga Thread - Grungie - 06-24-2013 I've never seen the movie or show, but I know her outfit is kind of weird RE: Anime/Manga Thread - crazysam23 - 06-25-2013 I found a picture of her: That gives you an idea. RE: Anime/Manga Thread - Grungie - 06-25-2013 I'm familiar with her character, I've just never seen the film. RE: Anime/Manga Thread - crazysam23 - 07-04-2013 Finally finished up Season 1 of "Ghost in the Shell: Standalone Complex". Damn, shit's intense. You think she's dead in the 2nd to last episode. Her head gets blown clean off (seriously, nothing left of it but brain matter and blood). Turns out, she transferred her "ghost" to the 'net for a while and waited for a new prosthetic body. But you have no damn idea until she turns up in the last 5 minutes of that episode. RE: Anime/Manga Thread - Grungie - 07-04-2013 Did you have to watch the movie before you start the show? RE: Anime/Manga Thread - crazysam23 - 07-04-2013 I didn't. /shrug Nothing seemed to be out of place or anything either, so I don't think the movie is required. If I understand it correctly, the movie is basically a prelude. But it's not required. It's kind of like how you don't need to read the Hobbit to get the Lord of the Rings. Yeah, a few things make more sense (like how Bilbo found the ring and so on), but the story of the Hobbit, while connected to the LotR's books, isn't required to read the LotR. On the other hand, you clearly have to read the 1st LotR book before you read the 2nd and 3rd. This is kind of the same way, I think. The movie helps explain a few things, but you shouldn't have an issue if you just jump straight into the show. RE: Anime/Manga Thread - Grungie - 07-04-2013 This reminds me, I need to finish watching Heaven's Memo Pad. The plot was getting pretty good before I forgot about it. RE: Anime/Manga Thread - wwf - 07-17-2013 Yesterday a guy at work said I look like the kind of guy that watches anime and plays video games all day. I don't even really know what to say about that. RE: Anime/Manga Thread - Grungie - 07-17-2013 You're not fat or Asian enough RE: Anime/Manga Thread - wwf - 07-17-2013 I know, I don't know what kind of video-game-playing anime-watching people he's met. Though to be fair, I've watched a bit of anime and played a bit of video games. |
