Something fresh

Postby A Cup of No » Sat Sep 03, 2005 8:00 am

Any anime you guys have seen lately that just left you wish a, "Wow, that was nice and different feel?" This is probably old, but I got that feeling after watching Appleseed. It was just so different and a nice change than regular stuff I'd be watching.

So any anime leave you guys with that "ooh, ah" feeling?

Yep. One Piece is quite different, trust me. :D


BTW, what's Appleseed about? I've heard of it, but have no clue about it...

I'll let Amazon describe it for ya:

"Earth's last city, Olympus, rose from the ashes of a global war on the backs of Bioroids, artificial clones who make up half the city's population. Under the strict guidance of a supercomputer, humanity's last survivors enjoy an idyllic peace, but only on the surface Human terrorists within the military seek a return to power and clash with the government's ESWAT forces lead by the legendary soldier, Deunan Knute, and her boyfriend who is 75% machine. Retrieving the Appleseed will end the conflict, and Deunan alone holds its secret. "

You should definitely check it out. The animation is a blast.

Well, I'm watching Shin Getter Armageddon with my brother, and that feels that way to me.

Kita-he or Pita-Ten did that for me. But then, I'm the stereotypical girly-girl.

So this is the 2004 Appleseed movie, not the 1988 original Appleseed production? (If Briareos is a cyborg, it's the later one)

I've seen the '04 movie, and, tbh, the plot seemed kind of predictable. (Seriously, I called just about everything at least 15-30 minutes in advance.)
The cake used to be a lie like you, but then it took a portal to the deception core.

I think that Samurai 7 was one that just totally amazed me. I actually liked the main girl character, and most of the characters on the show. It has a deep plot without being boring, or too serious.

I definitely wanna check some of these out. I want to watch the original "Seven Samurai" before watching 7 Samurai. And I was referring to the '04 appleseed.
