I don't remember how many times i've said this already, but toonami announced at the beginning of the summer that they were going to begin airing the second of big o at the end of summer, or beginning of fall.
But oh well, i'm still totally hyped about the second season of hellsing. the first season seems sooo cool, what i've seen, it kicks total ass. And the second one will be awesome as well. |
CC, I remember you posting about the second season of The Big O, but at that time I think the news was still unsure, right? I just went to that forum where everyone's obsessed about the anime and they even said it was confirmed. That's why I was happy...no one said we didn't believe you or anything. :)
But yeah, I'm very excited about the second season of Hellsing also. I thought the manga wasn't finished yet, because I read somewhere the second season wouldn't come until the manga was finished. I guess they decided to just do it anyway. :D Oh whatever, I'm happy!!! :happy: :happy: |
Okay, I can tell that this hasn't been visited for a long time. Was Big O really that good though?

1) The drawings were too closely related to American cartoons and so it wasn't considered "anime" (Plus, many couldn't stand the main character's eyebrows...which is a ridiculous reason not to watch this series, IMO) 2) Many complained that the series is too similar to Batman. The main character drives a black car, wears everything black, and lives in a city where it's almost like Gotham City These points are true, but comparing this to Batman, I'd pick The Big-O anytime. What I think is so great about this series is the plot, the character's relations to one another, and all the little signs and symbolic meanings in the scenery (signs, numbers, etc.). It's almost like a mystery series mixed with that retro robot anime style and film noir (as many people described it). For those interested in the plot: The setting takes place in Paradigm City (also called the "City of Amnesia"). All the citizens lost their memories 40 years ago in a catastrophy only known as "The Event". Now, people are just trying to live their lives normally. Roger Smith is Paradigm's top Negotiator, where he handles cases relating to resurfaced memories, something to do with Paradigm's past, etc. He is also the pilot of this mecha called "MegaDeus" which takes care of the messier cases. Basically throughout the series, there are stories that relate to the main plot (What is Paradigm City? What is the event 40 years ago?) and there are other characters that appear that are related as well. Character designs are well-done and does have that American style, but it's unique in its own way. Animation flows pretty smoothly and is quite good. The music is probably one of the best highlights of the series....piano, jazz, orchestra...but it fits the mood perfectly. Well, I kinda went overboard on details and all, but I think this series is worth a look. You can check out the first season on TV in July and if you're intrigued by the first episode, then give the second one a chance. But, like I said, it's a series where you either like it or dislike it. :) |
Seems like my kind of anime.
