halp me pick what I should watch. just took a final and am drained so don't wanna play a video game. have a ***ton of anime i just transferred onto my laptop, was thinking:
- Neon Genesis Evangelion
- Ghost in the Shell
- Yu Yu Hakusho
- Akira
or
- Howl's Moving Castle
I've seen a few episodes of Yu Yu Hakusho but that was years ago. Barely remember much. Same with Akira. I remember watching it on VHS but I was really really young and likely not paying attention or something.
Other than that, I've seen none of those... I have tons of other movies I've never seen I can watch too.. I just need to pick one lol and I'm indecisive. Ghost in the Shell.

I'm excited but also terrified for Stephen's new gig in September. Honestly, I felt like he was in his wheelhouse on the Colbert Report and he did take the world by storm. It almost feels like a step down turning his madcap zaniness into a typical late night talk show. I just hope it doesn't force him to clip his balls off like NBC tried to do with Conan. I thought the same. Jon Stewart is leaving too. Feels like CC is losing their meal tickets. I don't have much interest in their stuff and the occasional Futurama, Drunk History, or stand-up is all I watch on there anymore. Right?! I used to have my station glued to Comedy Central. This was back in the day though, when they were airing episodes of the golden years of SNL (for me, that's the 90's through the mid 2000's), Kids in the Hall, Strangers with Candy and of course The Daily Show.
I've got hopes for Stewart's replacement, but we need to give him an honest chance. Like Stewart said, Noah was just like him when he was starting out: young, practically inexperienced with hosting shows, but honestly funny and his ear to the rails. Of course, I'd rather that they gave the role to Williams, but it is what it is.
And now it's looking like Samantha Bee has a new talk show on TBS. Let's see how it goes.

Also, Jon Stewart wasn't the first host of TDS. So it's had a change before but Jon was host for so long. The first guy was host for like 2-3 years.

I used to REALLY love it. I barely remember much. I think I was watching up until the Dark Tournament... or had at least caught some of that. Either way I just know the characters pretty much and have completely forgotten the plot at this point lol

I have an anime test tomorrow...
It sounds awesome until you have to actually take one.
Well there's live-action stuff too on the test, but it's kinda fun saying "I have an anime test," get some shocked looks.

I watched it on toonami up until the middle of the Dark Tournament when they stopped airing it. a few years later I learned how to torrent and downloaded the series.
Holy ***does it get good. The second half of the dark tournament is amazeballs and it just gets better after that. There is no useless filler like Naruto or Bleach. Just action, plot (real plot, not fanservice plot) and character development.

I had a history test today, and it seems to me that no matter which way I twist it, history sounds worse than an anime test :P goodluck

Dude I tried to fund Polyball on kickstart and no go. I was so bummed. Hope I don't have to buy it on steam cos it looks really awesome. I'll check out that video in a sec tho. I'm kinda relaxing tonight cos have nothing to do tomorrow for first time in forever it seems like. Getting that exam out of the way was awesome. Sure I did well considering the reactions of some of my classmates lol

The anime aspect of the classes consisted of:
Space Battleship Yamato
Mobile Suit Gundam
Grave of the Fireflies
Akira
Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind
and The Wind Rises
SO. At least no worries of derp taste... though Yamato was so corny I was laughing half of the time. Maybe I've just been spoiled by the times >_>;

It focuses on post war film from 1948 to 2013 (Drunken Angel to The Wind Rises) and their reflections on post war Japan. Great class. 10 people dropped when they didn't see Naruto on the syllabus day one.
Not kidding.

Naruto is really good when you know what filler episodes to skip. It's not something I would wait weekly to watch an episode, but downloading them in bulk is great.

nice I'll check that out.
has anyone seen/read Angel Sanctuary?
I believe I have a few of the mangas somewhere (or maybe not anymore idk. they mite be buried at my moms) and I remember watching an episode of it or something with a friend? Tho I may be getting mixed up.
just wondering thoughts cos it may be good if it just randomly popped in my head lol

This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
