nvm found it,

can you get smash from the eshop?

never finished the previous MH on my 3ds, in fact i stopped playing with my 3ds months ago, never finished both pokemon games i bought for it either

Eh, I got plenty of use out of it. Etrian Odyssey, the 3 SMT games, Smash, Rune Factory 4, Ocarina of Time 3D, Star Fox 3D, FE:A, the upcoming S.T.E.A.M, etc, etc.

I was never a big MH fan before on the PSP, but this one seems to have made a lot of improvements.

Stop raping me.

Looks exACTLY like the previous mh

I haven't played Monster Hunter since the first PSP game so it looks alright to me.

Ah, good ol' Lance spam. Always there to block - EVERYTHING.

Checked and downloaded.

I've seen Outlaw Star, it wasn't my favorite because the story was a bit incoherent at times. Just as well I saw a few episodes of Attack on Titan and it didn't really grab me, but - I'm willing to give it another shot.

Oh, and Space Dandy. Definitely saw that. Not a favorite though either, I prefer anime's with a set storyline instead of a joke-of-a-day type deal.

Definitely a no go for Tenchi Muyo. Harem anime just ain't my cup o' tea. Death note and Code Geass I'll definitely watch for the sake of saying I watched it. People never shut up about it.

That upcoming list, looks pretty good though. Hopefully there'll be some dubs. I cannot into moonspeak unless I have to.

Yea I said Tenchi was a nostalgia thing for me, I saw it as a kid on toonami. As I said I haven't seen Space Dandy so I will take your word for it.

There were two big issues I had with AoT. First was that they used the dramatic moment thing too much, characters mad big deals and froze in terror too often. Second was the pacing. It starts out at a decent pace but then a couple episodes in it slows down, like really slows down for about a half dozen episodes. Personally I think the show really picked up when you get to see an excursion from the Scout Brigade.

The Outlaw Star one was a little depressing to hear though, but understandable. I also saw that one as a kid but I rewatched part of it recently and I still liked it.

If you haven't seen it yet, Moribito is good and Seven Samurai was decent. There is a standalone movie (unrelated to any series as far as I know) called Sword of the Stranger and it is almost the pinnacle of smooth animation and choreography in combat scenes.

Hm. Assuming you mean pure science fiction and fantasy, or both.
Legend of Legendary Heroes (fantasy)
Steins;Gate (Sci Fi)
Eureka Seven (sci fi, adventure)
Hatakaru Mauo Sama
Magi perhapes.

If you want stuff along the lines of FMA or Trigun however, those are even fewer in between. My advice is to expand your wings a bit.

You might like Nanatsu no Taizai

Oh right, and thanks again!

Yeah, it is a bit restraining to only look for fantastical action shows, though I do like some mech anime.

Turn A Gundam comes to mind, been meaning to watch the regular series.

It's not for the lack of trying though. Romance, Slice-of-life, Horror, I'm not real big fans of. I can deal with a normal setting for Mystery and/or Comedy though.

Well my entire list is pretty good, you might not like them all however. And no problem.

It's pretty much a given.

Jojo's Bizzare Adventure
Severing Crime Edge
Wolf and Spice
Legend of Legendary Heroes
Clannad
Anno Hana: The Name of the Flower We Saw that Day
Gintama
Chihayafuru
Usagi Drop
Ino x Boku SS
Love Come SNAFU
Eureka Seven (not the sequel)
World of C: Possibility of Money and Soul
the Monogatari Series
Servant x Service
Astorrates Toy
Zetsuen no Tempest

Are all good. What I can remember right now. If you're looking for something specific, you might want try listing genre, demographic, subject, etc.

Fantasy/Sci-Fi. It may be a bit specific but I usually prefer if it doesn't involve teens in a high-school-like environment.

I'm already in my teens, I don't need more of that shit. If you need something more specific my favorite anime's are: FMA: Brotherhood, Samurai Champloo, Black Lagoon, Cowboy Bebop, Trigun...

Dragonball.

Thanks, in advance. I'm willing to watch new/different stuff but I mostly go on by recommendation rather than testing it out for myself.

WAT8

Artist is named momo and they do a comic series called "Key to your heart" mopinks.tumblr.com on that tumblr they also have a link that takes you to their nsfw blog. Thats all I could find.

cool, have a good one

Ya, I really like it, plus you may be able to use them to expand you vocabulary, I know it helps mine. Be warned though, Cormac McCarthy's writing style is a bit funky, he is not a huge fan of standard punctuation and syntax, but it helps get across his imagery and convey emotions in dialogue at the same time.

Well, it won't do any favors for my already terrible grammar, but yeah I'll look into it.

cool, have a good one

A lot of imagery and symbolism and some surrealist descriptions. Mostly it, also much more somber in mood, no definite happy endings.

Hm. Sounds good actually.

Not actual spoiler Sorry if bad English, second language.
The first book has two interrelated plots, and the one from Kafka, a 15-year-old boy that runs away from his father's house, blew my mind. It's written in first person, in present time so I identified with that character on a very deep level. It's very sensible but no cheesy at all. Suspense is built quite subtely, and it has some surrealistic touch that leaves you wondering and desperate for another chapter. John Updike described it as a "real page-turner, as well as an insistently metaphysical mind-bender".
A quote: “Memories warm you up from the inside. But they also tear you apart.”
About the second book, Wikipedia says: "The Unbearable Lightness of Being is a 1984 postmodern novel by Milan Kundera, about two women, two men, a dog and their lives in the Prague Spring period of Czechoslovak history in 1968"
Which is true, but only in the surface. Kundera takes four characters and peers into the deeps of their loves, desires, fears and dreams. Not precisely in a psycological way, but in a metaphysical one. All together with a huge criticism of communism and politics in general.
A quote: “Anyone whose goal is 'something higher' must expect someday to suffer vertigo. What is vertigo? Fear of falling? No, Vertigo is something other than fear of falling. It is the voice of the emptiness below us which tempts and lures us, it is the desire to fall, against which, terrified, we defend ourselves.”

Oh, it's barely noticeable. Don't fret about that.

That was a great write-up, I am interested now that you gave a personal account.

I don't think the site actually has a literature board... I never realized this, if it does someone correct me, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't. And don't worry about messing it up, you can hardly tell.

Found it in the image boards.

Mistborn, by Brandon Sanderson. One of the best fantasy settings and plots that I've read (And I'm a fantasy nerd, I read a lot). Worldbuilding rivaling that of GRRM. Breaks a lot of fantasy tropes and another book tying in to it is coming out later this year! Also has a video game being made a a few hundred years before the book and the possibility of a movie being made soon.

Kafka on the Shore by Haruki Murakami
The Unbearable Lightness of Being by Milan Kundera

My amazon book wish list is getting larger than I thought. Thanks!

I should ask this more often, but care to give a few reasons why those two are your favorite books?

Favorite Books?

Blood Meridian by Cormac McCarthy

Gravity's Rainbow by Thomas Pynchon

That should give you an idea of the style of reading I like.

Do explain what style of reading you're talking about, both books seem a bit beyond my skill level, but from the descriptions I've read online -- they sound fascinating.

A lot of imagery and symbolism and some surrealist descriptions. Mostly it, also much more somber in mood, no definite happy endings.

Can't say I do, I haven't heard of those authors until today. Well, I have heard of one of McCarthy's works, 'The Road', but other than that this is new to me.

Granted, I haven't finished High School, so that may have something to do with it.
Or the fact that I haven't been reading that much, too much vidya games I'm afraid.

Thanks for your input, though!

Fuck just hitting you with a few, I'm going to my goodreads list when I get home and I'm going to fucking bury you in good literature. Just give me an hour or two to get home from work.

We all eagerly await your return

Can't wait man.

I'm kind of embarrassed I fucked up my comment in a freaking post about literature. These posts rarely happen, and I manage to screw it up.
