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?

One of us! One of us! One of us!

This was the first anime original part of Blazblue I actually liked better than what was in the games, so of course Kokonoe had to ruin it literally the worst

Lambda <3 Golden time was great as well, just gonna echo what Satty said. I definitely think I'm gonna like this show more than Toradora too. It doesn't have Taiga but I think it's just straight up more well-written.

True Name: simplechild	Saturos Nov 30 2013, 05:42 PM Not a fan, Dimplemild? I know you said it looked like cliche and overdone crap from the first episode; I take it that hasn't changed much? That's what I was seeing out of other people, and therefore not necessarily my own opinion. It's certainly not crap. It's not holding my interest, though.

Parishioner Posts: 452 Group: Clanless Member #983 Joined: June 3, 2012 Gender: Male Country: USA	So can anyone recommend anime that is actually finished to me? I keep finding so many interesting anime but they rarely fully adapt their source material. =( I'll consider pretty much any genre.

I only ever watch finished series, unless I don't realized it's unfinished going in. I also only watch really short stuff.

Also, obligatory Kara no Kyoukai and Rahxephon recommendation.

hello darkness my old friend Posts: 7,476 Group: Luna Clan Member #985 Joined: June 6, 2012 Gender: Boy Country: Japan True Name: Razzle Dazzle	Hmm, the Witchblade anime finishes pretty nicely and doesn't leave a big huge gaping cliffhanger~ Though the subject material is pretty odd so eh~

That doesn't really help, especially considering the sheer volume of anime that isn't adapted from a source material. It'd be nice if you could specify something to narrow it down further. Anything in particular you're looking for?

Anything in particular you're looking for? Those work too. I was just looking through the most popular/top anime on MAL and raged over how the vast majority of them aren't finished. I didn't really have any particular genres in mind as I like pretty much anything, but I guess romance, slice of life, mystery, thriller, supernatural, fantasy, adventure and harem. Thanks for the recommendations so far.

Spoiler: click to toggle I probably don't have anything that's what he's looking for anyways.

Hence "I probably don't have what you're looking for." Don't really just want to throw random series at you that I won't have any idea if you'll like or not.
