OT OT Discussion

Recently I got back into watching Anime movies. Yesterday, I watched my Ghost In The Shell 4K that I bought for my birthday earlier this month and I was blown away by the restoration and Atmos sound. I can't wait until the end of the year when Akira is released in the USA in 4K. I hear it will have the 1988 original English version, which is my favorite version.

Anyway, what sort of Anime does Bio Haze enjoy watching?
I'm into the following:
Akira - 1988 VHS English
Ghost In the Shell
Blue Seed 1-26
Ninja Scroll
Ninja Scroll TV series
Ogre Slayer
Crying Freeman 1-6
Mad Bull 34
Wicked City
Big Wars
Gunsmith Cats
Grappler Baki
Pokémon Seasons 1, 2 only
 
Cardcaptor Sakura was popular in the UK, under a shortened name, but it was a heavily edited version that wasn't aired in the correct order. But I recall my sister was a big fan of that show.
 
I recently saw the Anime Street Fighter II and the series Street Fighter II V and it was better than I expected. I learned something about the characters I didn't know. Like I didn't know that Ken and Ryu are longtime friends, but it makes sense, because their fighting moves are the same.

Like I said before, I can't wait to get Akira in 4K this Christmas as long as it has the original English dubbing because it was my favorite version; not the new script with new voice actors.

Ghost in the Shell looked and sounded great in 4K. It's the kind of Anime I would watch again and again just for the sake of being involved in Anime.

I want all of my anime movies to be upgraded to 4K at some point.
 
  • Suddenly I wanted to share my art with you:

    Is anyone also interested in art and doing it? Feel free to share if you're not even an artist!

That's very nice! Looks like the inverted color version of a real image! What else have you got?

I can't draw for shit and I'm certainly not an artist but I of course love to browse RE fan art. My favorites are the ones with the characters, though. I used to ship Metaltango (Krauser/Leon) when I was a teenager (still kinda do haha), so I really appreciate art that shows the two of them together. Come to think of it, I just stumbled across this one a few weeks ago for the first time... and just in time for the upcoming US election, I might add! :

Krauser/Kennedy 2020

I might not be able to draw, but I guess I do have some writing ability; though it's mostly academic/professional writing that I'm good at. I tried writing an RE fan-fiction a few years ago, but never quite got it going. It involved Krauser coming back shortly after Wesker's death in RE5 and trying to restore Umbrella to continue the legacy. It was also a love triangle between Krauser/Leon/Ada. I really wish I had the skill to write narratives, but unfortunately I just don't. I'm not a natural storyteller, so it was hard for me to flesh out the story. Plus I also didn't really have the time, since I had just started college.

A couple of other fanarts that I've recently found that I like:

Chris drawing a banana

I love this image for how realistic it looks but I hate the fact that Ada is disrespecting Krauser's corpse :mad:
 
Unfortunately, I didn't draw for many years due to depression. I need to spend a lot of energy to draw, and I didn't have that kind of fuel. But lately I've started to get over it slowly and have returned to drawing.

I only have this portrait, but it's not about Resident Evil. And I didn't finish it, though:

It was rank. Although I actually don't like the RE2 remake either, yet MANY fans do hold it in high regards.

OK. The base game (excluding the bad DLC) has its moments. But it still wasn't that great of a remake. I actually prefer The Darkside Chronicles.

Overall, nobody is going to really miss 2020 at all.
