Witchblade is the only one from that list that I actually viewed. Overall it was quite enjoyable, I especially liked the ending. But as Rezikai already said: it's relatively far from the comics, both in art and story telling. So if you are a fan of the comics, don't expect too much of it, otherwise it's a nice anime to watch, when you don't want something challenging ;)

I use to wrestle in high school. My coach did jiujutsu and judo so naturally we learned a few things from those arts. When it comes to self defense you want to be practical and realistic. Most fights end up on the ground at some point so something like jiujutsu and judo are great for that. Karate, boxing, and others of course are great if it's a stand up fight. You might even want to consider an MMA gym since most do a mixture of those arts and then some.

I have to admit that watching anime is great and i enjoy watching anime a lot. However some people let the emotions of a favorite anime get to them. In my opinion in this world there exists a line for girls. A line kind of like a scale for the type's of girls there are. You have: Not attractive <---------------Middle---------------> very attractive great personality but usually a bitch and thats the way it honestly is. the people who make anime characters make them as perfect as they can. (especially the females :3 (poor guys). Not only that they make the plot as touching as ever, Like almost a never would happen kind of plot (unless your like 1 in a million who wins the lotto type.) So people try to desperately find people like that in the world, and complain when they cant find it and blah life sucks it does. I know anime is Like, amazing and you wish you could be the person that you idolize the most from it, But dont get so infatuated with it that it mentally depresses you because you cant find that perfect girl (which is most likely big breast, amazing body, ILY so much (your name here) kind of girl. Sorry, But a dream girl will always be a dream girl unless you can come to realistic terms of what the girl is, or you want her to be.

yep very good anime, i like the dynamic of words and ideas that this anime shows and of couse i love the graphic art of this one to.do you know some anime similar to this who share that points to? thanks for the answer

I've done Kagome and not dyed my hair or put a wig on before, just didn't feel like it that day. Also I have my boundaries for character weight vs real weight (if the costume looks like it could break at any sec and that's not the original intent of the character, something is wrong). Sometimes it's not possible to be the same shape as the character and you make due because you love them and want to make your own representation. Also not everyone can buy wigs or knows how to work with them. I agree that makeup should be used when possible, it helps portray the look better, but also have to say some people don't know how to use or buy contacts (or it may bother their eyes) so eye colors don't match sometimes. In my opinion, cosplay is a hobby and the person decides how much effort to put into making it the best. I don't do photoshoots thus far, so I'm in the eh group. I do try my best on costumes though and wish to display my skills. I'm perfectionistic in that sense.

were r u season 2 we want u bad :O

I listen to the originals in Japanese and I actually have an UTAU I plan to use for covers. English just doesn't do the songs justice. Some fandubs arent bad but its just too hard to cover it in a different language, you have to take some liberties that I feel shouldnt be done

Hey I live in Melbourne, FL, and I just wanted to make a thread for people who live near here. If I become friends with anyone nearby, I'm willing to meet up at MegaCon 2013 with my friends from FIT here.

Don't regularly talk to many here on that level, but I'd go for having either Metaljester or KitsuneRena with me in Durarara's world, because many of the animes I watch I wouldn't want to be part of that world. I'd like to be part of the Dollars too, hell I even went to dollars-bbs.org and signed up.
