Post history indicates his ban came from the Aang versus Korra thread.

I think that's exactly what happened.

I can't believe I'm actually agreeing with you, wonzo.
I imagine it was the ghost adventures thread.

Looking at the thread now, it's almost certainly the Ghost Adventures thread. So many bans in that thread.

Holy mother of wow.... like every other post is a ban... I mean, ouch. I don't get all the jokes in there though, uggh. Looks like Loudninja tried to get order, but it was too late... All that's left is a sea of gray...

What the fuck. This thread is a minefield.
Pun/joke brigade always ruins threads like that.
come home, zach

I hope the bad ghost puns were worth getting banned.
The only point of those threads are the puns. The reason you post that is for the jokes.

This thread has made me realize that:
A) people don't understand how anime dub writing works. For better understanding, I recommend the steins;gate commentary track. Puts things into better perspective.
B) people reallllllllly underestimate the spread and effects of gamergate here or don't know what happened at all. For that, I recommend the YouTube series "why are you so angry". Does a good job or explaining it.
Anywho, back to business.
Haven't seen Black lagoon (will soon), Bakurano, or Shinsekai Yori yet. So of the ones I have seen:
I've only watched the first season of Ef and heavily enjoyed it. I'd really recommend it. Just expect the presentation to be different since it is a shaft property (although it's more reigned in than you'd think in that regard)
Rokka is a good ride, nice mystery show. You may not like how it ends or the production values of the show since they are unfortunately lacking (though this is because it's the studio's first big anime project.)
As for nanana, it gets better than the first episode but it ends up being a forgettable, of enjoyable ride. It's something you should watch if you have nothing else to watch, but otherwise I'd go with the others

It doesn't really help that it seems like there is not a single show where most people say "watch that first". xD
I will definitly watch all of them sometime (I have no idea how many years I already have Ef and I still haven't seen it), I just can't decide for what first.
That aside, do you guys remember when you got into season watching? Everyone here has probably watched anime for years and years, but for example I only started to watch more than 1-2 shows from each season (if I even watched shows from a season) since the Winter 13/14 season (where I watched like... 15 shows at the same time, but tried out even more). I came to our weekly stream 1 season earlier, where we watched Kill La Kill, Noucome and Sekai de Ichiban (and the first episode of another show each week).
When did you start to "seriously" watch anime? :0

That's a good order of things as well. Ef-A Tale of Memories is really good.
Also, everyone else's opinions are trash, my list is the best. teeheehee..
Well, mailbox agrees with me, lol.
Guffawing at his own jokes about sensitive subjects like rape and murder? Yeah, pouring out that 40.

I don't follow the seasons. I let other people here watch first so I can skip stuff I don't like the look of.
Started watching anime in fall/winter 2012.

So, I just sort of stumbled upon this anime. I'm way out of things, and don't really watch newer anime anymore, because I hate waiting a week for new episodes, so I'd rather wait for the full season to just binge it. Well, lucky me, the final episode aired this past week so I was good to go.
I do love stories when you have to guess who the traitor is, same reason I picked up that Lost Dimensions game. Anyway, this was a pretty enjoyable show. Even if we had to hear "I'm the Strongest Man in the World!" about 500 times.
I also happened to correctly guess who it was when I first saw all the characters too, so yay. ;p Anyways, I hope there is more of it, really enjoyed the characters and their abilities.

....Cornbread, if it appeared the world was to come to a sudden end, and we all had to say goodbye to each other, is there any chance you would admit that your love for SAO was all lie?
Like, you were just pulling one over on us this entire time?
I started somewhat following the series pretty regularly back in 2003/2004ish. Not actively keeping up on seasons and whatnot like I do now (it was kind of hard to know everything that was airing back then, there wasn't really dedicated resources to that stuff like there is now) and just watched whatever popped up on my radar.

I probably started watching seasons of anime around 2000. You guys don't know how easy you have it now. Tape trading and convention scrounging and fucking Limewire and shit.
I also enjoyed SAO quite a bit on an unrelated but further socially suicidal note.

You know, the more I watch anime, the more I can understand why that series is considered a "gateway series" into anime. If you go in not jaded with no inherent bias' you would probably enjoy it much more. Either way, it was my first and you always think highly of your firsts, right?
Stay strong my friend. Like what you like and hate on the rest, lol. No really, who cares if nobody else likes it...

I had two stints of "seriously" watching anime. The first was around 2007-2009 and the second started in 2013 and is currently ongoing.
Edit: Does watching anime on YTV count as "seriously" watching anime? If so then that time period as well.
Eh, I am not completely sure what my first show aside from those in TV was, but looking back, I watched pretty crappy stuff back then. xD

Hmm, fair enough. Despite my jabbing, I never actually get annoyed with people for liking a show I don't. I reserve the right to mock a show I don't care for, but that's different.
Like what you like.

First anime series I watched (not counting Speed Racer and Robotech) was Gundam Wing on Toonami. I watched it during the day, then recorded the midnight airing (where they said damn and had blood) on my VCR and then watched it again the next day. Good times.

The first two anime series I recall watching are the Vision of Esclaflowne and Sailor Moon.
Esclaflowne is still an great classic but I haven't seen Sailor Moon in years.
