The elfen lied hype was a few years back when it was really new.. every forum seemed bogged down under "ZOMG LUCY IS AWESOME, ELFEN LIED IS TEH MOST AWESOMEREST ANIME EVAR!!!"

Atleast the ones I was going onto were.. It wasnt worth the hype and I was very much inclined to hate the show purely based on it.. though it isnt a bad show by any means.. (and some of the parts are pretty FTFW)

Ah, It's a good anime, not the best but good. I watched it around a little more than a year ago and I barely heard anything about it and well... I can only hope haruhi's hype will go down.

BANNIES ARISE!

It will give it a few years.. the dub's done a horrible job so the fandom for it probably wont flourish around those who werent fans of the sub

..atleast thats the hope >.>

/Even if it does give it a few years and people will be going "haruwhat?" before long

I liked Elfen Lied. I know that people didn't like some of the shit it features, but I though it was cool.

As for Haruhi, I watched it without being forced. I saw the dance video, and decided to watch it. I though it was awesome, and now I love it. There are gonna be people with different opinions then you about anime, but you gotta understand...people have opinions! Meng just said Elfen Lied was a piece of shit, don't see me getting mad about it! It's his opinion

If you don't like Haruhi...so be it. I think it's a masterpiece. Maybe you don't. Cool.

I beat Jarett in Tetris. Once. Then he beat me four times straight. But still, I beat him once!

Lets stop talking about Haruhi till the second season comes out.

So who's seen Paprika? It looks interesting. I'm "buying" it right now. What's with original movies being so hard to find/"buy"? It took me forever to "buy" The girl who leapt through time and burn it to a dvd. Finding the .ass file took forever and they were screwed up (The flickered and had extra characters).

Shut up asshole

Go watch Naruto

One Piece is hated by many. I don't know about you, but when I can look forward to a new episode and a new manga chapter to something I enjoy every week for a very long time...it feels good. Also, I'm a Dragon Ball fanboy. One Piece was heavily influenced by Dragon Ball...so I guess it's only natural for me to love it.

Ive avoided it for a long time due to the hype but just today I finally got my hands on a copy of full metal alchemist and.. well.. I must say that was an.. incredibly enjoyable first episode for what it's worth.. going to zerg the series over the next few days imo..

Second. Worst. Signature. Ever.

Ehhh, dont base watching something on hype. I don't get why people hate on a series because people praise it and give it hype. Hype only works if you fall into it. Just watch a series with an open mind and don't listen to all the ridiculous hype floating around and you will probably enjoy it a hell of a lot more. I think thats why knoxer hates Haruhi so much. It didn't live up to the hype he fell into.

So lesson for today. Hype = bad = don't listen to it.

When all you know of a series is having heard how "amazingly life changingly awesome" it is before having even read the summary.. then well you've already got nothing but the hype to base it on

But anyway its a good show and im enjoying it alot so far is all there is to say really

I haven't read deathnote, nor have I seen the anime. I'm not really sure I want to.

I'm currently watching ep. 5 of claymore. Holy cow, Teresa owned those guys at the 10:00-13:00 mark. XD

This is exactly what has been going on through the entire thread, and it's not the first time either.
You come to us for advice..you just spell out what you want to get, and then ask us if it is okay, and we have to explain why it isn't. That's the world upside down.. If you would just say 'hey guys, I have an X amount of money, what should I buy?' Then this would be over in 2-3 posts, not 2-3 pages.
