There are several more. These are just the ones I remembered, and was reminded of, after scrolling through once. I'm not going to list them all.

Can you watch hulu shows through kodi without having to subscribe?

Also, are the anime on hulu subbed or dubbed?

You can watch any show you want with the right add-ons. For Anime I use KissAnime. Which pulls directly from the kissanime website. Has everything up to date. Even updates DragonBall Super within an hour of it airing in Japan.

As far as subs/dubs. It depends on the show. Some shows are too new to have dubs, it usually takes an extra year from original airing, for a show to get English dubs.

Any board thoughts?

Scruffy recommended it to me, and I'm glad I watched it. One of my favorite anime shows out there.

Just finished Chivalry of a Failed Knight.

A little tropey, a little haremy, a bit fan servicy, and a lotta fun.

If Sword Art Online and Chivalry of a Failed Knight could meet in the middle on the harem and fan service aspects, it would be a perfect show on that side of things.

Hey Scruffy, I'm in the middle of Rage of Bahamut: Genesis. Had a quick question, is it 12 episodes or 13? It just jumped from Episode 6 to 8 on Hulu. No number 7 to be found. Tried google, but oddly it wasnt much help.



Side note:

.hack//sign 6.5/10. Fun premise, and I love the character development for the most part. But animation was tedious, and for a character based show, they accelerated some things with character's motivations that weren't explained well. Especially since they had a full 25 episodes with which to do it.

It is 12 episodes long.

Thanks brosef.

Bump for the Seven Deadly Sins thread.

Does anyone else enjoy some of the abridged fan shows on youtube? Team four star has gotten fairly well known, but there are 2 others I really enjoy. One in particular that is based on SAO.

SAO Abridged. This series is absolutely hilarious, and honestly, it's reached the point now that I consider the story and writing better than the real series. It is incredibly funny, and really well done. The last 3 episodes are particularly good, imo. Highly advise watching it. Might even deserve it's own thread it's so good.

How To Be An Adventurer. Based on Is It Wrong to try To Pick Up Girls In a Dungeon. There are only 2 episodes so far, and because of the format, they will probably only have 4 episodes in total because of the shortness of Is It Wrong. Really funny, but a different type of format than SAO abridged. Whereas SAO is more of a satire/rewrite of SAO, this is basically a pure caricature of Is It Wrong.

Finished a few more shows.

The Sacred Blacksmith: 6/10 Solid Show, but in some ways it's just kind of there. Average story, average animation, but enjoyable.

I couldn't become a hero, so I reluctantly decided to get a job: 6/10 Funny, very funny. However, felt like they took to long to get to any kind of action, and then the action was over in a flash. Also, too much echii. Generally I like echii, what man doesnt after all, but at times this show almost felt like they had written it specifically to be able to show boobs. As if boobs were the main protagonist.

Currently in the middle of, The Ambition of Oda Nobuna, and Lord Marksman and Vanadis. I advise both to anyone who likes fantasy animes, good shows. I would say Oda is a smidge better, can't quite put my finger on why.


Can anyone tell me if Gunslinger Girl is worth watching? Netflix has it in around half of my recommended show lists.


PSA: Gate Season 2 is on Crunchyroll. I want to say episode 4 will simulcast on there tomorrow.

I liked the first season. It has one of my favorite scenes involving the classical song Beethoven's Ninth and a good subplot that has the feels. I haven't watched Il Teatrino yet

---

I may give it a shot then, the premise isn't something I normally watch though.

Then again, neither was Tokyo Ghoul, and I enjoyed it....I think. Still not sure how I feel about that show, parts of it are so freaking good, while other parts make me hate it. In some ways its kind of like Akame Ga Kill, but more suspenseful. Does a better job of keeping you guessing. Makes watching it very tense at times.

Is this on Hulu? I haven't noticed the name on there.

Also, Just finished Lord Marksman and Vanadis. I really enjoyed it early on, middle is ok, and then it just kind of fizzles. I really, really like the characters, and the premise, but it comes up lacking. I think the lack of funding hurt the animation too much, they went to narration for most of the battle scenes. Where I think this hurt the show the most was in writing and story. Seemed like they tried to avoid battle scenes as much as possible so they didn't have to try and animate them. Leading to a watered down and slow plot.

Really was a waste of potentially great characters.
