Ass and I finished a lot of shows in the past few months. I know we are at an all time low for views on our forums, but this is not only a place to chat but a good record keeper. I also predict a small boom in population here in these parts in the coming weeks when we start playing BF3 and more people get into Skyrim, DotA2 beta, D3 beta, etc. In our previous "Shows to Watch" we finished:Shakugan no Shana (seasons 1 & 2) Zero no Tsukaima (seasons 1, 2, & 3) Angel Beats! (+ the ova) Toradora!Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu (season 1) Darker than Black: Kuro no Keiyakusha Gaiden (the 4 ep ovas) There may have been more, too! Now we get on to the next part of this post: the future! Q: What do we have planned to watch? Who is invited? How do you participate? When will be the next "Shows to Watch"?Shows we plan to watchMirai Nikki (currently airing) Shakugan no Shana III (currently airing) Guilty Crown (currently airing) Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu (2009) (season 2) Suzumiya Haruhi no Shoushitsu (movie (comes after season 2)) Gintama (finished, but season 2 or three is currently airing) Needless (finished) Toaru Majutsu no Index I & II (finished) How to participateIf the show is "currently airing" we will be watching weekly. People in vent will be able to tell you who is watching and what not. You can also request info here. Shows that are finished will be talked about here and in vent before watching and will most likely be finished in a few days to a few weeks after starting. If you want to watch a show that is currently airing you just need to catch up to the group and the same applies to watching if we have already started a series. Everyone is invitedAs long as they do not spoil, annoy us, or take too long during the process of watching then they are allowed. Be them your friends, your friend's friends, or a random passerby, you are welcome to join us. How long will this "shows to watch" last?It will go on until we need to make a new thread. The last one lasted ~2.5 months, so figure 2-3 months until the next one. New shows may be added, but these currently listed shows are most likely our priority. No guarantees on any duration/date at the moment. though.

Quite old shows you got here, I've watched all of them, but when they got out . I'd say Shakugan no shana was one of the anime I grew up with . If you want new ones to see, I can suggest you many

ಠ_ಠ ಠ_ಠ ಠ_ಠ ಠ_ಠ ಠ_ಠ ಠ_ಠ ... Ridiculously dumb plot, idiotic characters, forced comedy, by far the weakest drama of all Key titles, but with good music and cute-looking Tenshi.. This show is the most overhyped show I've seen, next to NGE and Suzumiya Haruhi. Toaru Majutsu no Index was fun for the first ~5 episodes, then it went completely bad. When I thought it couldn't get worse, season 2 proved me otherwise.

Well I still listen to the OST allot but besides that... About NGE I started to see it but could never finish bored me so much... I did see both the new movies though they were nice enough. Btw on another note, You guys should check out Persona 4 The Animation (currently airing) I'm enjoying it.

P4, Fate/Zero and Mirai Nikki definitely dominate the Autumn as they're pretty much must-see titles imo.

Basically it's a crazy thriller with a shitty MC but unpredictable and interesting plot. If you liked Higurashi this is most likely Anime for you.

What is a good series to start out with? I'm sort of new to the genre... Depends on what kinda of series you like, there are: fantasy, mech, drama, splatter, comedies, social, supernatural, romance and maybe more (these are the categories I've found myself so far). Most series ofc belong to more than 1. I've seen some people watching their 1st anime belonging to a category that dont like and then they never touched anime again.

This^^ when starting anime the biggest thing that makes people turn away from the genre is choosing a random anime that does not suit your tastes.
