Wait, how many of you have actually watched this? Hype get. I really enjoyed Mushishi despite getting into it rather late in the game. Would love to see a continuation.

Huzzah, I'll have to actually finally finish it then. And then maybe hunt down the manga.

But the answer is probably a little of both, leaning more towards the latter.

I'm watching Princess Tutu.

peytral pls Posts: 15,452 Group: Sol Clan Member #459 Joined: March 18, 2009 Gender: Miserable pile of secrets Blog: Ab Animo Pario Country: #0# True Name: Peytral Aznable	Probably. Most typical magical girl series require being able to stomach anime targeted towards single-digit-aged girls. And being able to watch things that are 50+ episodes. There's stuff like Symphogear and Nanoha which are much more shounen than shoujo, but at the same time they're... pretty freaking shounen, and still fairly atypical.

Yeah Simple, I'll probably check out Mushishi soon enough. I still have Psycho-Pass and Utena on my to watch list beforehand but after that I'll give it a shot. EDIT: and Peytral beat me to posting, but didn't even recommend what I was expecting him to, what a disappointment.

If I was going to do that I would've cut to the chase and done so sooner.

I am keeping an ear out about the new Sailor Moon thingy, in hopes that it will be short and seem interesting.

uguu~ Posts: 7,500 Group: Clanless Member #116 Joined: November 2, 2006 Gender: Girl Blog: I Hate Blogs Country: #0#	I would recommend Cardcaptor Sakura, being pretty standard and straightforward magical girl, but it's way too long for you. However, given its very episodic nature, you might be able to simply watch it interspersed with other shows...? Or maybe in shorter "seasons".

And the animation is super pretty. There's a bit of unfortunate fanservice, but it's also really badass. Also famous characters from myth and history fighting magical girls. Beat that.

His talk of twelve episodes intrigues me.

It's boring and way too much monster of the week. I can't speak for the anime adaptation, but I doubt it's much different.

Main thing it has going for it are the production values and fights, but aside from that nothing much stands out about it and it'd be a lot easier to appreciate if you're already familiar with Fate/stay night.
