Bear got a reaction from VESSMIER in Dark/mature/adult-themed anime
By the way, Angel's Egg is an overlooked masterpiece. Slow-burning, surrealistic and poetic anime with barely any dialogue at all. It's not as much about plot, characters and all that, but rather an atmospheric trip, or just an experience, that offers something different. Probably the most unique anime I've ever seen. It's not even 80 minutes long, but 85% of everyone who watch this will be bored to death and the 80 minutes will feel more like 578 minutes. But this is perfect IMO. Highly recommended for people with some patience who appreciate atmosphere, visual style and the artsy side of things.

Bear got a reaction from VESSMIER in Dark/mature/adult-themed anime
I couldn't find a better title for this thread, but I would like to have an own thread for anime that are suited for adults, rather than kids/teens. Because whenever I've started talking about this in the anime thread it's kinda dwoned in the talk of everything else which is probably more popular. And with "adult" I am basically thinking about anime that is much darker and psychological, more violent and gory, features erotica, or deals with themes that'll go way above the head of most teens. It's a bit vague I guess, but I think you'll get what I mean when you see the lists of examples.
Series:
Cowboy Bebop*
Ergo Proxy
Serial Experiments Lain
Neon Genesis Evangelion
Elfen Lied
Hellsing
Gungrave
Cyber City Oedo 808
Berserk
Films:
Perfect Blue
Akira
Ninja Scroll
Ghost in the Shell
Angel's Egg
Memories
Wicked City
Vampire Hunter D
Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust
*I understand that Cowboy Bebop might seem a bit out of place to some here, but its touches of neo-noir, sophistication, philosophical concepts of boredom and loneliness and more adult themes such as drugs and homosexuality makes it a very adult series.
Anyone ever see anime that's either Lovecraftian or very cosmic horror-inspired? Would be real cool!

Bear got a reaction from suji in random thoughts thread
I have been able to vote for 10 years, yet I have never placed a vote. Fuck politicians, fuck pilitics and fuck anyone involved in politics, both from the outside and inside. They're all awful liars. Fuck 'em all.

Bear got a reaction from ghost in What video games are you currently playing?
Started playing Odallus: The Dark Call today. 40 minutes in and it's totally neat. Like a mix of Castlevania og Metroid, with a brilliant soundtrack on top. It's nothing revolutionary, but so far it's a real fun action-adventure platformer.

Under-World is great and I don't get the hate for Fuyu no Castanet at all. I've said it many times and I'll gladly say it again: fantastic song!

Saw Magic Sword and Carpenter Brut last night.

Bear got a reaction from Visutox in The general Metal discussion thread
Some good and bad news. We'll start with the bad, sad and awful ones:
Heart attack at the age of only 42 years old. Damn. Negura Bunget in their prime years (02-06) were amazing. Some of the most honest and spritual black metal you'll find, with Om as the absolute highlight. But their early, more straight-forward black metal stuff and the symphonic black metal of Wiccan Rede are great as well, and some of their later stuff, like Măiestrit and Vîrstele pămîntului are good. But with Vîrstele pămîntului, the first one without Hupogrammos and Sol Faur, you could already sense that a huge part of the band was gone. A huge step down in quality. So the loss of Hupogrammos and Sol Faur just didn't do this band good at all as they manage to continue the sound of Negura Bunget much better in Dordeduh than what Negru did with Negura Bunget.
Anyway, fantastic, creative drummer.
This song, this album. Holy shit! Perfection.
But the good news are that Peste Noire are on their way to record the new album.
Fuck yes!

Bear got a reaction from Zeus in Ten Years of Monochrome Heaven!
No idea how long I've been around under different usernames, shared accounts and whatnot, but it's been a while. Not sure why I've been here for so long as I've never been big on actually discussing (Japanese) music. But I did. And it's not because of downloads either, because I have not grabbed much from here. Probably the drama and the bans. And the film threads back when they were super active.
Yeah, good job keeping it this active for so many years, though. Very impressive by both admins/mods and mortal users.
