Yes, that would be the translation for the title 'Yami no Matsuei'. It's something of a favourite of mine. It's very silly and overblown in some ways, but I've always loved the characters. It's one of the very few shounen-ai series which I would consider satisfying. The hero is very unusual for that kind of series, and the villain is good for epic lulz. :P
Also: best OP EVAH. :cheers:

Funnily enough I didn't think it was amazing, first time I saw it, but it's grown and grown on me. :scratch:

Also, I would love to see a YnM shinigami take on a Bleach shinigami. :D
Tsuzuki: Can't we just... uh... not fight? I really don't want the paperwork...
Kenpachi: I'M GONNA KILL YOUR FACE!
Tsuzuki: Kyaaaaa!
[[three hours later, complete and utter stalemate ensues]]
Kenpachi: *pants*
Tsuzuki: ....cupcake?
Kenpachi: ...Yeah, go on then.

-Pips-

I ask because I RP Uryuu over at a crazy LJ RP and he's been interacting with a Tsuzuki so I'm downloading the series because I'm intrigued. :D

That would be amusing to watch, since YnM shinigamis can't die... :damnfunny:

ARGH more waiting for Tsubasa! They might as well make it bi-weekly and be done with it! :bang:

What the fuck is happening? I need to know. I NEED TO KNOW! :bawl:

Sorry Pips, for Tsubasa I probably wont catch up until school is over.

I am now up to ep 18 of season 2 for Higurashi. Holy Fudge it is good!!!!!!! But I noticed something, the end credits start to come on early. Then after the end credits they have another 2 minutes of the actual show come back, then they launch into what is coming up next time. So when watching season 2 don't stop at the end credits, there is more!!

Okay, okay...so the torrent I was trying to use to download Yami no Matsuei subs isn't working (I need like... .02% percent, which means the first two episodes are incomplete and it's very annoying)

I successfully downloaded the dubs, but the English......it hurts my head. :Q The voice actors are wrong for the characters! Well, mostly Hisoka's voice actor. Hisoka doesn't look like a valley girl, why does he talk like one? :Q

Yami no Matsuei NEEDS to be watched in Japanese.

1. Miki Shin'ichiro playing a main character.
2. THE SINGLE BEST ENGRISH CONVERSATION IN ANY ANIME EVER.

I will not spoiler you.

(I have the files, but I didn't get them through Azureus. If there's a way for me to do it that isn't super-complicated, I'd be happy to seed them just to you, slowly but surely over the crappy house connection. :))

I know it needs to be watched in Japanese...you have no idea how long I made myself wait in the hope the japanese ones would finish before I started the english.

I can't stand dubs. :sick:

Did you get them through a torrent of some sort? Even if you didn't...you should be able to start a torrent...? :shrug:

What is Yami no Matsuei? Also does anyone have Toward the Terra or Hi No Tori or honey and clover? I can't find them anywhere.

I can't wait to find Yami no Matsuei in Japanese, I'm sure it would be amazing with this awesome plot the series has.

Anyway, Wilma, it's about a shinigami (and yes, I think of that even though the English dubs fully translate it. :roll: )...I'm pretty sure Pips can do a better job of explaining it, since I haven't seen all of it. :oops: I'm very much enjoying it though! :blackeye:

Gawd, I can't remember what it was about. Shinigami bureaucracy, allegedly. I just remember the gay. The fiddles. The demons. The bondage. The blood. And Muraki, molesting random kitchenware. :LMAO:

Wilma, I think I have quite a bit of Honey and Clover, both series. I found it very dull, and my favourite series include Kino no Tabi, Air, and Utawarerumono, which... aren't famous for being fast-paced and action-filled. Maybe I could send you the torrent download file thingies? My actual files are corrupt, I think, but there shouldn't be anything wrong with the originals, which I snagged while they were unlicensed.

Dawn, I got Yami no Matusei from a friend, who got it from her boyfriend. Fortunately, he's a junk hoarder with three harddrives, so I just might be able to get the original downloader for you. :) Have you tried Tokyo Toshokan? You probably know all this better than me by now of course. I haven't had trouble getting hold of anything in a while... except Towards The Terra. :sob:
Actually, I really wanted to buy the official DVDs of Yami no Matsuei. I'm not a total pirate. I have quite a few films and things, and I now also have the complete Lady Oscar [Rose of Versailles] in French and Japanese, Requiem From The Darkness, Kino no Tabi, Salaryman Kintaro (it was cheap :P) and New Dominion Tank Police.
But it's impossible to get YnM on R2. :(
Stupid... sucky island, defective in gay. :pout:

Well, yeah, the gay and the violins. The violins, oh god. :love: It's not fair.

I think that's a pretty good basic description of it. :LMAO:

Well if the gay is canon I am all for it, and I love violins.

For Honey and clover could you send me the torrent file? I am interested in Honey and Clover since Tite Kubo said that is one of his favourite mangas. I tried reading but I couldn't get into it so I thought I would give the anime a try. I have tried that Tokyo library place you mentioned Pips and it looks they have phoenix (Hi no tori). I know that the Japanese title for Toward the terra is Terra e... . Might give that a try.

I will say for anyone else reading I actually do buy the dvds of stuff I download. If it wasn't for downloading I would never have been buying Code Geass dvds among other anime dvds. I definitely wanna buy Higurashi and I buy Bleach too. Since a lot of anime isn't on TV I use downloading as a replacement for that.

The gay is very canon.

I'm going to go ahead and recommend the dubs if you want a laugh. :damnfunny:

I don't wanna be traumatized. I already suffer enough since the Anime world order podcast put Pikabellechu's porn fanart in their podcast file and has not updated in 2 weeks. :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: No one should come across that when scrolling through their iTunes. I am now traumatized for life :uhoh: :shock: :shock: :shock:

There's nothing more than kisses, yet. I'm...through the first 9.

I don't know if more will come? Pips? lol If there is I'd like a warning.

It really depends on your interpretation. Some characters definitely have canon things for other characters. But the rest is up to you.

The awesome Engrish from ep. 7

The best thing about this is realising that Miki Shin'ichiro was also the seiyuu responsible for the fantastic French in Antique Bakery. Either they got a cultural advisor in, or it's EXTREMELY easy to see which option somebody took at school.

Well, yes, the canon things. :P :roll:

Episode 7....ha, that's much more amusing than the English dubs were for that part.

No, that's actually what I mean... fangirling aside, there's some intentional ambiguity near the end of the series.

I just survived a mini-anime con, now I know why I stay in a hotel for cons. My throat really hurts from talking so much and I am very tired.
Day 1 I was weak and I bought one of the 3 hardcover editions of Blackjack. I resisted an ouran wallscroll on day 2 though. :D

I think this year will be the first year I will make a list of stuff I want to buy from the dealers room for Anime North. Usually I do not care for shopping so much at dealers rooms but those 3 books are hard to find.

I also discovered why I need a hotel when I go to cons. travelling back and forth takes far too much out of me. This morning when I went back I was so out of it I could barely order breakfast from Tim Hortons.
