I thought Trigun was really fantastic =) I think a large reason for me enjoying it so much is that I really like both the comedy aspect that it starts out with, and the hardcore bad-mother it ends up being. Some people get chased away by the initial over-the-top silliness and never get to see the second half, which is a pity if you like that kind of thing.
I thought what I'd do was, I'd pretend I was one of those deaf-mutes.

Yes Trigun was very good in that aspect, being a comedy for the first few episodes then turning into a really dark and sad series towards the end. I thought that the characters were also very well balanced, nice depth. Vash has to be one of the nicest anime characters that i have seen in a very long time.

Would have been cool if we could discuss it like Eva or Elfen, but for me it was too straight forward...

Ok so been a while since I watched somthing, and so started Sousei no Aquarion yesterday and finished it today...

Not bad... Another mecha series finished on the list...

Got 29 and 30 of Tsubasa this morning and busy finishing with S3 of Galaxy Angels then I will pack a punch on that one...

Although by now I should be used to it, finishing a series with sad/bad endings just doesn't seem to sink in... I keep expecting this or that, and then something completely opposite happens... Oh well, I still keep watching and still not gotten enough of anime...

Been a while for me as well. Still have a lot of stuff to watch.

I am a versatile watcher, but on the drama side, Kimi Ga just got a bit too boring to my liking...

A quick q for Rayne, and maybe Nuke as well: When they refer to "TypeMoon Art", what do they mean? I know Fate is from TypeMoon so I thought that maybe it has something to do with ingame art?

@ ichcigo - as far as i know yes

@ evade - me and my brother are the same on the watching anime in english thing: you just dont do it.
he bought the ninja scroll series last year at rage and afterwards we dtarted watching it in english... the first ten minutes of the first ep didn't even pass before we stopped it and switched it to japanese with subtitles.. it's just so much better in jap..

@Ichigo & CatZ: Nah, .hack//SIGN came before any of the games. Checkit on Wikipedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.hack - Spoiler warning!

There are a heck of a lot of games based off the series tho =/

thanks for that. i didn't know that hack sign was before everything, heard that it was based on the game... it's actually confusing... games based on series and series based on games... and games on games and series on series...
