Temple of Kraden News: Welcome to the Temple of Kraden! ------ All worshipers may enter the Most Holy Place in single file, reflecting on the bountiful blessing Kraden hath provided unto him or herself since their last visit. Head coverings are not necessary, as true penitence and humility are found within. The Priests and Priestesses of Kraden endeavor to remind all that fresh orange juice is heavily preferred; only whores use frozen.
Greetings, heathen. Perhaps some fortuitous blessing of Kraden's grace hath led you to our humble Temple, or perhaps you are simply curious about this strange and wonderful cult. Should you be willing - and dare to hope - to achieve enlightenment, the door opens before you. Lo! Leave your old life behind! For once you step through, you become something more than just yourself.

You become a Kradenette.

Are you willing to make the rapturous plunge? Do you have what it takes?

Truly the internet is worthless and untrustworthy and must be purged.

Do you buy all of your anime on DVD, Shmittles? More power to you.

I guess I'll start FMA at approximately where I think I left off, and if I repeat an episode or two it'll be a recap.

Heck no. I use the internet to get my anime, but I place the anime itself on my computer so that the internet can't screw me over between or during episodes. I love the internet, but not for actively streaming significant things while I'm using/enjoying them. Not unless I'm forced to anyway >_>

I DO, however, buy anime that I've viewed and think is worth my money for a physical legit copy. I've done it with a lot of the .hack series, FMA, Last Exile, and I'm planning on getting Ano Hana and Gosick some time. Probably a few more I'm not thinking of... I need to make a list now that I have an actual income.

But downloading anime doesn't take as much time because you can let a whole series download while you're doing other stuff and watch them consecutively without any delay from loading times like streaming. Downloading > streaming

aha, this debate again. I stream when it's available in decent quality on Hulu or Crunchyroll, otherwise to the downloads I go.

Depends on how high quality you want it.

1280x720 resolution episodes are generally around the 300MB-500MB range depending on the series and subgroup, while 720x480 resolution episodes generally are in the 150MB-250MB range. Depending on how fast your internet connection is, you may not have to wait long at all.

spoilers I have to wait a long time

Still better than streaming, though.

I usually set whatever episode I want to watch first to high priority, and then the others come down while I watch that.

I see Hibiki has finally attained Super Saiyan, Peytral, judging from your avatar. xP

Thinking of joining my school's anime club. =O

I always have a backlog that I intend on watching, so downloading is never a problem for me.

(also my speeds are stupid fast and I have my computer hooked up to a huge TV, so quality is definitely an issue)

Wait, you guys don't drop everything and tediously watch the bar/percentage rise as your anime is slowly drawn to your computers memory from the World Wide Web? How absurd.

On second thought...

Two episodes of FMA down. Both ones I'd seen before, but 31 is the first I haven't yet watched, so that's next. Netflix is so helpful with their very thorough episode descriptions. >_> Dub is... not too bad. It's easier to tell if voices sound kind of weird for characters when you actually understand the language, but overall the VAs are doing good jobs.
