OtakuDesu UPSF Lieutenant Junior Grade Registered: 04/24/08 Posts: 56 Loc: The Pit of Despair	Originally Posted By: OtakuDesu Hmm, upon inspection everyone here seems to be tossing each other off in anticipation of this show. Perhaps i shall watch the show again to see if it got better later on. I never really got past episode 3 or abouts. I mean, yeah some "ha-ha's" and "awww" moments and very artsy but..... Meh. Seems like with it's current trend it never really goes anywhere or gets better. And it just didn't do it for me. Oh well, lets try not to fall asleep this time soldier! readies his 2L bottle of Mountain Dew and SunChips To the Otaku basement, i mean, Cave! Away! roll batman theme music I have returned! I have succeeded in watching almost all the episodes of Aria. I must admit, my taste must have changed during the last 3 years cuz it is now,drum roll not that bad. Still a bit boring in some places but i have come to appreciate it for what it is more. Maybe i should revisit some other shows i deemed crummy. Maybe Inuyasha. . . . . . . . . No, no, it's still a big steamy pile of sewage. _________________________ I am free of all prejudices. I hate everyone equally. -- W.C. Fields BYE NI~!! -- Kogami Akira

You other love it or hate it because it's so slow paced. No plot, no action, very serene, completely character driven. Maybe that's where your tastes have changed. You've seen so much of what you consider to be your type of show that you're attracted to the difference? That happens to me sometimes. And Aria was just such a wonderful pleasure to watch.

And Aria was just such a wonderful pleasure to watch. for anyone who enjoys the slice-of-life genre such as ARIA, needs to also check out: Strawberry Marshmallow Mushishi Mokke Sketchbook ~full color'S~ (which i also have a review for on Denkyu.com) Bartender Hataraki Man Kino no Tabi Shinigami no Ballad Azumanga Daioh Yotsuba& (the manga) and for a totally original anime experience, check out Mononoke. (and no, i am not talking about Mononoke Hime. it's a tv series.)

Aquamarine. i said it on my lj and i'll say it here: hands down, one of the best anime series i have ever been privileged to be a part of in over 12 years of watching anime. i would sell bodily organs to get all of ARIA in the states. sparkles at TRSI/Nozomi you know you want to =^.^= _________________________ Otakuden's Oasis Otakuden's Anime Reviews Otakuden's Dram o Beer & Spirits

long time lurker UPSF Lieutenant Junior Grade Registered: 04/27/08 Posts: 105 Loc: through the looking glass	I was only able to see up to episode 10 of Origination because my subbers quit releasing it as soon as Nozomi made the announcement. So because there is no dub grumble you guys will hopefully whip this out onto DVD quickly so I get the last couple episodes of my Gondola wuv _________________________ Blasting a hole in the atmosphere from 1100 feet in the air.
