I heard the OVAs are great, but i dunno if i should download the series and watch ti with the OVAs or just watch the OVAs

I'm grabbing everything I found of it now. I'm going to give it another shot. I'm hoping to have atleast 1 anime for each day to kind of mix things up. All I have now are Naruto, Bleach, and Soul Eater. I think I'm getting better at anime. I've already went from the dubbed to subbed.

look for them on anidb and see the order, i think the 4 ep ova's are first. If you like them, you'll probably want to continue with the series.

Quote:

In that case name me some Ergo Proxy alike please.

well the most similar anime's i can think of are Gilgamesh and Texhnolize. Gilgamesh has a super dark horror atmosphere, and you have an apocalipthic sensation from every episode. And it's very sci-fi-ish.

Texhnolize, hmm, you probably can't get more sci-fi than that. In the first episode the first 10 minutes there isn't a single dialogue and you probably won't hear more than 10 lines till the end of 1st ep. And as it's progresses it just gets more and more dramatic and misthic, and at the end don't expect to be happy and joyfull.  Make sure to use KAA if you'll get it.

Another one that has a bit of resemblance might be Witch Hunter Robin, you might've seen it by now. Same dark future, fairly hot chick and most importantly, underaged :whistle:

The OVA's are really great and the mood is pretty dark and serious, while the series has more of a comedy approach to it.

@Karas31

Thanks
I've seen a few anime's now but im kind of carefull before I start watching as I hate to be disapointed (I know, who doesn't).
There for I've heard of the ones you just named but never came to watch them. I will give them a go if I can find the release you recommented.

Rurouni Kenshin:
Watch first this OVA, Tsuiokuhen.
Then watch the series.
The 1st and 2nd season were awesome.
The 3rd not so good, but thats what you get when makers go ahead the manga.
Then movie, Ishinshishi e no Requiem, well you can watch this in between the 2nd and 3rd season.
And last the final OVA, Seisouhen. This nicely ends the story.

As for similar for Ergo Proxy, well not similar but good ones.
Noien, Darker than Black, The Third: Aoi Hitomi no Shoujo, Innocent Venus, Freedom.
In my opinion, there isn't that many series that has that kinda complexity Ergo has.
As for the other matter, download the first few eps, watch them and then decide is it for you.
That's what I do.
KAA's own tracker has Witch Hunter Robin and Texhnolize.
Gilgamesh you can find at Anirena.

cRaZy:
Happy happy joy joy, good you learnt that dubs are evil.
Once in while I try to watch with dubs and it's max 2min that I can take.

I ditched dubs because I couldnt watch anime for a while, and then when I could get back to watching it, they were so far behind the subbed version that it just pissed me off. I really did enjoy downloading all the episodes of Naruto I was behind(a good 120+) and watching them back to back to back. I did the same with Bleach(although I never watched that one before). I really miss those days of catching up. Now I'm almost dying waiting until the next week for the new episodes. :weep:

Rourini Kenshin is a must see, both the series and the OVA's.

Onto my question. I'm currently watching Hunter x Hunter and I absolutely love it. However the quality of the akf encode is awful, almost unwatchable, and since a-k only subbed/encoded till ep 25 i was wondering if you have any leads on better subs out there for the remaining ep's.

Cheerios!

akf is the only fansub that finished that.
So you are out of luck.

Wow, just finished watching Basilisk, the more episodes you watch the better it is. It has a great great ending IMO, hopefully there are some more Anime's like this one

Just started watching Rurouni Kenshin again and I'm liking it just like I did when I first saw it(havent seen many of the episodes though). Ahhh the good times.

Nope, not yet. I forgot about the post earlier until I watched a few episodes, so I'm grabbing them now.

actually the movie's a piece of shit really, don't watch it if you liked the anime, it has some nice fighting efects, but no caracters, no storyline, no evolution, no depht, it's simply a shalow shit ... If you want more like basilisk search on anidb at Samurai genre, you should get some ideeas

it has the same characters, same story, same everything as the anime, so how could it not have any characters, story or anything?

its a really good movie and the story and development of characters is there, i would definitely not call this "a piece of shit" because its really good.

If it portraits the same events in 1.5h instead of 10 hours or whatever the series end up at, I'd have to agree that it can't have the same development of the story, the characters or anything else.

no it's not even good, "very good" is to far from the truth. In the anime you are shown the past, the old clan memebers and how the things get like this.

In the movie you get nothing of this sort, just that they suddenly decide to fight. Ok ...

In the anime you get the background of all the main caracters, their motives for fighting are shown, (revenge, protection, etc), in the movie nothing.

And not to mention Gennousuke's ability is violently changed, like no connection with teh anime at all.

Same with Oboro. Aside from the first battle which is rather convincing , the rest of the caracters die almost instantly, shalow as they are, without anyone developing them at all.

And the ending has nothing to do with the anime.

Like Wolcom said, the movie is anbout 1h 20' long, so nothing else than a $  making flick can be done.

I think its a good movie - an enjoyable 1h and 20 minuts' .
And ofcourse they can't show all that , when its a movie on 1h & 20 min.
I saw it with a friend, who hasn't seen the anime - he also though it was good, like i did.
