Watching current horrible, horrible Bleach... Oh my god it's so sh!t! Only watching it out of ritual and merit of the past.
LIke me and my ex girlfriend i only stick it to her since i have been doing it for the past X years and seems a shame to stop now that we are separated. Yeah everything shonen turns to **** eventually.

Im currenty watching Kiss x Sis . Yes its what it sounds like. No I wont post a pic and no im not all that proud of myself either.

Revisiting old stuff that didn't finish off because new stuff is so shyte. Rewatching Slam Dunk. One of the best ever! I don't even follow baggy ball.

Secondly. Waiting on Crapruto **** to get a few episodes in front so I can watch 15 minutes of new footage since they always include flashback after flashback and drawn out scenes to fill up 80% of a "new" episode.

Will sooner or later finish Inuyasha but my god it's boring! Up to episode 20 or so.

Read most of the DC N52 stuff... So far Animal man is the best thing. Followed by Red Hood and the Slut. Green Lantern I am always a sucker for. Superman is absolute crud.... Wonder Women surprisingly good. Teen Titans nice art but written for 5 year olds. Avengers vs X-men crap art ok story.... Justice league is good... Phew Satisfied? 8-)

I've massively cut down my DC and Marvel to the point of only enjoying Scott Snyder's Batman with any regularity. Ultimate Spider-Man is okay too.
Grant Morrison on Action has been very disappointing, especially when compared to his All-Star Superman.
I do have Mark Waid's Daredevil vol. 3 to read as I enjoyed the rollicking action of the first two.

And they've banned Black Kiss 2 in the UK. God damn it.

Ultimate Spider-Man was surprisingly good. A 7/10.
Black Kiss, wiki'd.. Looks great and I reckon they will hawk it around for motion picture.

Watched a lot lately:

Moribito - was actually pretty darned good
Durarara - pretty fun, a bit much on the teen drama, enjoyed the gang stuff though
FLAG - very cool, artsy and "meaningful"
Escaflowne - epic, a classic I had never gotten around to, glad I finally watched it
Usagi Drop - different, great if you like kids
Un-go - bordered between great and simply confusing
Tokyo Godfather - a masterpice!
Redline - everyone needs to watch this!
Colorful - sad story, pretty moving at times
Titanya - not good, stopped watching
Blade of the Immortal - disappointment
Claymore - pretty boring so far
Master Keaton - I like this show a lot, nowhere near as good as MONSTER (but then again, what is..)

I'm probably forgetting a few.. ahh the joys of being unemployed :palm:

Moribito - LIked not finished
Durarara - still never got anywhere after 6 episodes
FLAG - in the to watch list
Escaflowne - its a classic
Usagi Drop - different, great if you like kids
Tokyo Godfather - great movie you should try Paprika if you have not seend it.
Redline - everyone needs to watch this! AGREED! Smacks of dimahoo in the character design
Colorful - not seen this
Titanya - not good, stopped watching
Blade of the Immortal - the books are great though
Claymore - pretty boring so far... Same for me 9 eps in and nothing. complete yawn fest.

if you have a movie night ready check redline. Its epic as ****!

Started watching Steins Gate, it's pretty awesome! The main character is a hoot! The character art reminds me a bit of SDOJ..

the main lead in Unicorn is pretty much the wettest blanket going. with people dictating various political sides and attacking one another all he ever seems to say is but but whhhhhhhhy?! not to mention him throwing himself at this girl who he feels the need to protect even though shes blatantly hiding everything from him including her political and prestiege which he seems to hate. I dont blame her... He would probably go off have a **** mope and then kill a load of people then ask why does there have to be all this killing. It is very pretty though and his robot rocks. even if he is a wet blanket.

Steins Gate is a 10 for me. How far are you? Because if you aren't even half way and think it's awesome... Just you wait.

just making may way though modoka which looks like a kiddies magical girl anime type thing but after the first episode turns in to a grandiose **** you. also Toppatenged gurren laggan which does a similar thing. great thing is both animes are short at 16 eps and 24 eps each and can both be watched without having to subscribe your life to 100+ episodes :lolno:
