The AnimaTure

~The Anima-Ture~



It starts with a long intro and i guess it is quite clear who we would be seeing a lot.
The name 'Vash the Stampede' appeared and a big guy with a robot arm who is 6 times bigger than a normal person, a girl with a machine gun and a little girl with two handguns.


As the intro is over we get to see a desert like scene with a lone tavern with all tough looking guys.

Two guys were talking about 'Vash the Stampede' and we get to see the guy in red from the intro behind them.

The bartender goes outside and runs away in fear and the two men readied their guns.

A huge weapon broke the tavern and other people started shooting the tavern to bits with ak's, shotguns and whatever they had but only the red man who used a plate sign made out of metal as protection was unharmed.

We then see the big guy and the others we have seen from the intro except the girls.

As they were going to start the fight it changes and i hate moments like these but keeps interest to watch high.

A city in ruins and they were talking about the person who was responsible and the description was that of the red man.

As the scene changes to another tavern we get to see the two girls.
one is rather large and the other small and they ordered stuff that is not being served in a tavern.

The men all fell over because they were expecting the 'i want to order milk' thing.

The second sentence after that which is Then we'd give you all the milk you want!' is if you have a perverted mind rather funny.

The man that had put a table in front of them got knocked out because the large girl dropped her machine gun.

They then spoke to the bartender and asked after Vash but he couldn't say much except from the rumors that he had heard.

As the bartender explains Vash would be a huge man with a huge weapon, a mohawk and a lot of henchmen, but to top it off he is also a womanizer.

And the scene goes over to that big guy and you'd think he is Vash from what we have seen already.

The henchman looking for the man in red got caught as he was hiding underground and he knocked him out.
We see that he is a rather jolly man with some misfortune making him look ridiculous.


He got spotted by another guy and 'screamed' and threw something to that guy but the others found him too.
The way he 'crawled' out there was rather funny.















One of the men was tailing him and the man in red lured him into shooting a rock and the man in red was aiming the weapon of the henchman to shoot a self-portrait of himself with a big smile and the 'V' sign.


He tried to make the man shut up without hurting him but he was not afraid of being hurt and the man in red tried to threat him but without success.


The big guy who is the boss, threw his weapon through the rock hitting the man who got severely hurt.
The boss kicked the guy over to the man in red telling him to hold him but the man in red was holding him as he was unable to move and got captured.

The two girls arrive on scene and tried to offer a token of goodwill.
Then the guy who was talking with a person earlier about a man in red with an earring also arrived on scene.

The big guy was trying to make it clear that he caught Vash the stampede but the man did not believe him.

As it all escalates, the two men thought to be fighting Vash as they all fit the description from the rumors.

As the two girls tried to escape the scene, the man in red was running with them eating the donuts that are the token of goodwill to Vash the Stampede.

The two girls told the man in red that they are just going to keep a 24-hour surveillance on Vash the Stampede to prevent any more disasters.

As the two men stopped fighting and captured the two girls they tried to lure Vash the stampede.

The man in red came back and got them untied while avoiding getting shot and tried to escape himself.

Eventually he got cornered on the cliff and they failed miserably at it.

As everything went well we now know who Vash is but he acts like a person who is full of himself despite all the misfortune.


One of the bounty hunters had explosives set which went off after the fight still destroying a town.
As rumors go it was Vash the Stampede again but the most amazing this is that not a single person died from a cliff that got blown to smithereens with rocks flying everywhere.

I have seen more and more people praising Sword Art : Online for being a refreshing and unique series on Facebook.

These must be people that are either new and just started watching anime or they think to know what they are saying.


So to get back to the point i would suggest the people that think Sword Art : Online is unique should read and watch the .//hack franchise.

They have the same setting and even the same plots if i have to say so.

People can't leave the game and end up in a coma and get killed in-game and also outside the game.
A love story in between, how it all started, why they did it, how it became a 'living' world.

A rushed series such as Sword Art : Online can't top the .//hack franchise.

For those who don't get the 'rushed', with this i mean that it suddenly skips 20-40 levels and moments in both the light-novel as the anime.

Simple mistakes such as people that are in a coma for two years who live alone are still alive or a body is still perfectly fine after 2 years being in a coma.

And there is barely anyone that notices it unless they read it somewhere.


Enough with the ranting

I skipped the latest Busou Shinki episode because it is getting boring to be honest.
I still like the shinki's but i have a feeling it is just something that is having random themes and it just gets boring.


Too bad not too many people talk about Btooom! because it is really worth watching.

The latest characters added is for one part rather annoying yet questionable, the other is rather interesting.
Something did make me remember i hate doctors and i am wondering why that could be...


I started watching it and i have no clue at all what exactly i am watching.

It does keep that feeling of 'i want more' in your mind because you are unsure what would happen and get so curious you just keep following this series.... or am i the only one?

On a side note : I almost cried for episode 5.


Correct me if i am wrong but episode 160 should be named 'Extreme Facial Expression'.

Natsu is making all those weird faces and so is Elfman.
Mavis had a cute face because she needed to go to the toilet.........as a spirit.


Just watched episode 23 and i will say it again and again.

TOO BAD IT IS ALL GETTING RUSHED AGAIN!

They make it sound like months pass but in reality it is just 3-5 days that have passed and Kirito has beaten one of the strongest players.

The moment of disappointment in episode 23 is that Kirito rushes through thousands of the guardians thanks to Leafa's enchantment on her sword.

I would have thought Yui would whisper something to Kirito again what he could do like last time he got into a pinch.


Episode 10 makes me think of Bleach.
I can't help it but the fighting resembles how Bleach goes.
From strong attackers to weak defenders and then tables turn and turn again.

What also made me think that it was like Bleach is because of the epic moment together with the background music which always was to be heard when there was something epic going on in Bleach.

I am watching 8 man after instead of watching 8 man so i can't say much about the pre-story and such.
It starts with a man called Azuna catching fire and jumping out of the window and his lover was narrating that he was not what she thought he was.

I am looking at the dub version and so far the voices fit and so does the dialog at the moment.
A woman is talking to the future mayor and he is annoyed by all the thefts and thugs in his city.

He also explains what his goal is and how he wants his dream city to look like.

The woman leaving the office was reading her papers and a guy took it out of her hands asking if she was the secretary, but she said she was from public relations.

She noticed his gun and he hid it and she assumed he was a cop but he said he was a former cop and had no need for his gun.

The boss of the company came out with his secretary and the secretary tried to warn the security but the man stops him and holds him like a police officer does it.
The boss also noticed he was a police officer and the man asked some question but got no answers and left.

The woman from public relations was waiting for a taxi outside and the man arrived with his car and asked if she wanted a ride.
She gives in and got in the car but noticed that he was being chased by the security that the secretary alarmed after he left.

The man and woman were talking about what he was doing and they arranged their next meeting.

Then the part that we are all used to and that is horrible voices when watching a dub.
A young police guy and his uncle the chief in a police car with both a voice that is irritating.

Well the first thing the uncle said was 'EEEYYY!' with ketchup all over his face and suit from a hot dog.

He began to regret letting his cousin join the police force and suddenly the episode takes a turn.
Dead bodies everywhere with wounds and a lot of blood.

They trapped the criminal that killed eleven people and on his arm we get to see a machine gun and he runs out like a maniac towards the cops who are all shooting him.

He gets hit and stops his movement and attacking and so do the cops, but the criminal with '13' tattooed on his head was about to attack again but they shot him and he got two bullets to the head.

They were talking about the weaponry on his arm and the chief looked rather pale when he looked closer at it.

The man who many thought of as a cop is called Hazama and he arrives at his apartment and noticed his door to be unlocked.
He took his gun and noticed a little boy dancing with his new boombox which he got 'legit' after he pick locked the door to enter the apartment.

The boy asked about his father where he was but Hazama told him to look for himself and got a phone call.

It was important and once he arrived he got guided into the lab and we see the chief standing at a robotic arm and the two men have their differences.

The chief and the professor show the weaponry that the 'cyborg' had and ask Hazama to help with this case.

The chief tries to blackmail Hazama into cooperating but he still declines the offer.

After that he is at the bar where he made an appointment with the lady from public relations and her name is Yokugawa.
She disliked the place and tried to run out as Hazama noticed it he grabbed her and did agree that the place was not suited and went to another place.

They started talking about how he always plays the tough guy but he goes with it and joked about it.
They started talking about the case he was working on and as it goes on he notices a man looking at him from a car outside but he drove away.

The meeting quickly ended and he drove her home and as he started driving he noticed the same car that he saw earlier and he got suspicious.
He runs up to her apartment, despite being there the first time so far i know.

The man grabbed Yokugawa and stabbed the top of her throat with he tip of his knife and then wanted to cut her bra but Hazama arrived and turned on the lights.
He shot the man but he deflected the shots with his arm and we see he has a robotic arm like that guy with the '13' on his head.

The man that was attacking them decided to kill them both because Hazama said his name out loud.

Hazama jumped out the window together with the man and a car took the man out of nowhere leaving Hazama for dead.


At the hospital we see him fatally wounded and we see him die and the chief was talking to someone with big surprise.

The chief was asked by Yokugawa where Hazama was being kept and he told her he was transferred to another hospital.

We get to see a guy with '8' on his chest with a blue skin all wired up in machines.

As it goes to the chief's cousin driving Yokugawa to Hazama's home they get rammed by the punks.
They had no intent to fight, but only scar the car.

As they arrived at his home the little kid opened and they took him out to eat hamburgers for information on finding Hazama.
Instead of getting information they're getting into a fire fight with the punks called cyber punks that cut off their limbs for cyber parts.

The cyber punks kill everyone on sight and the man with a blue skin and the 8 on his shirt arrives and starts tearing the parts off their bodies and knocking them all out.
The leader takes a hostage and shoots at the 8-man but the bullets are going in slow-motion for him.

The leader decides to run but The 8-man grabs his cyber hand and pinched it off.

As he walks away Yokugawa seems to notice it is Hazama and the 8-man seemed to react to her calling him that.

Later as the police arrive they are not believing the boy telling it was the 8-man's work and the woman and chief's cousin vouched for him.

They thought it would've been Hazama but he seemed to arrive on scene and somehow Yokugawa demanded him to be protected by him.

We know why Hazama is acting though and vengeful because he killed seven detectives who were dirty and that his sister was killed before his eyes.

Yokugawa asks what the man does and he explained he was a criminal that stole secret plans from the government.
We get the information now about why these cyber punks are attacking and why it fails.

We get to see a room full of toys and that man that thought to have killed Hazama but the man called MR. Halloween was getting irritated about it.
He activated the arm on the mans body who is called Tony which makes the nerves feel pain and as he falls down in agony MR. Halloween is saying how he hates it that his machines need to be recalled for a repair.

The scene goes back to the garage from the company boss we first saw and they entered the building.
The camera registered Yokugawa and Hazama and they entered her office.

He needed to crack a password and asked for a cup of coffee and as she leaves he turns his hand into a mechanical like status and starts cracking the code.

We now know for sure he is the 8 man and Hazama triggered the alarm and the security mechanism spread out sleeping gas which only works on Yokugawa because he is an android.
He escapes with Yokugawa and the scene goes to the police chief with the mayor and a lot of pills.

I bet if he took just 1 of each pill that is standing on his desk he'd die instantly.
The police chief told him to be careful with them and stuffed his mouth with pills right after as if it was candy.

They are talking about the criminal mastermind MR. Halloween and the mayor is frustrated because everything is getting on his back what happens in his town.
The chief told him the 8 man was back in town and he demanded to get a picture with him holding hands.

Hazama in his cyber form is very robotic and also speaks that way as the professor was downloading the data Hazama downloaded at the company.

Hazama was not allowed to feel any emotions of his former human self which the last 8 man did have and he had to pay with his life because of that.

We hear him saying he has nothing like emotions and called himself or rather 'Hazama' a host for the 8 man's body.

As Hazama arrived at his home and opened the door there was an explosion.
As an android he noticed it and also found the culprits but they got away.

The little boy noticed his father on TV which Hazama discourages because he could not play football anymore because he took a serious injury.

We get to see the man that tried to kill Yokugawa and Hazama together with the two that escaped from 8 man and they are supplying the football players with the cyber drug that is used by the cyber punks which causes them to be suicidal.

They started playing football and the team that uses the drug are taking out the other players with ease and are breaking their bones but quickly attacked the public creating chaos.

Hazama tried to safe all the people but one killed a woman right before Hazama's eyes which made him remember how his sister got murdered.
He killed the man and Yokugawa was under attack and he got another flashback and he turned berserk trying to kill the little boys father.

Not seeming to listen to reasoning he did not kill the father but destroyed his cyber parts first.
Sam, the little boy tried to stand up for his father but Hazuma punched him out of the way and Yokugawa tried stopping him too.

Hazama calmed down after he fully analyzed Yokugawa and had no clue what he did.

Hazama went to the professor to talk about this mistake about him running rampant without his will but the professor said it was him overwriting the security systems implanted in his body.

What bothers me right now is that he was suddenly talking normal instead of the robot-like talk.

We see what happened and who did the murder of his sister and what Hazama did after it happened.
The man who killed his sister named Tony, is also the man who tried to kill him and Yokugawa and is the lapdog of MR. Halloween.

Sam was talking with his father but his father was suffering badly.

As Hazama arrived at sam's home Yokugawa started questioning him and not soon after Sam and his father arrived home.

Hazama ties Sam's father saying he would be very dangerous without his drug and Hazama explains to Yokugawa what this is all about but not saying anything about himself or who the 8 man is.

Not soon after we suddenly get to see the identity of MR. Halloween and Tony, who was his lapdog is kicking him out of the board.
Tony send him off to a person that i assume he would turn MR. Halloween to MR. robot.

Tony took command of the board despite one that was opposing but Tony killed him.

Yokugawa went to talk with Hazama about his wounds he got from Tony and she asked for proof which would be the scars on his body which he produced on his body.

Yokugawa was calling it coincidence and thought he was 8 man which he got irritated for and he tried to kiss her which made her run away.
The professor is worried about Hazama because his emotions are overwriting the systems and he could go berserk again.

Sam's dad woke up and started freaking out because he couldn't get his drug but Hazama used the drug the professor gave him to calm him down.

We see Tony sitting on his bed and his whole body is that of a robot and we see how he lost his body.

Back to Sam's father he started acting normal and Hazama made him a meal because they are friends and started talking about old times.
As they started talking he suddenly called Hazama 8 man which he denied but sam's father begged that he would tell it but still didn't.

We see the cops running up the company of MR. Halloween who is now MR. Robot and he attacked the cops and overpowered them.
As MR. Robot threw a cop outside 8 man grabbed him and fought MR. Robot and noticed a bomb hidden in his frame and told the cops to run but as soon the bomb went off it makes me think how they could run that fast as that little bomb destroyed half the building.

As Hazama escaped from the blast we go back to Sam's apartment and the two men who tried to kill Hazama stood at the door and were looking for Hazama.
Sam's father attacked the two men but was overpowered and for now it seems that they killed sam's dad.

Hazama is telling the chief who is behind all of this now and made it clear he was unsatisfied with being a cyborg.
One of the other cops said he had a report on a black male jumping out of a window and Hazama realized it was his friend and rushed off.

As he arrived on the scene he noticed that sam's father was still alive and is planning to bring him somewhere.

We get to see Tony being adjusted and talking to a brain that is doing all the work on his body.
They are talking about the cyborg brain that only the 8 man has and this peeked the interests of Tony going after the 8 man to get it. Soon after the brain informs Tony that the two men are back with Yokugawa.

Sam's father seems to be stabilized thanks to the professor and went on his personal errant without telling the professor anything.

Sam's father seemed to know that his body was destroying itself and asked the professor how much time he had left but that remains a secret for us as the scene changes to Hazama going after Tony to safe Yokugawa.

He got apprehended and Tony told the tale how he became like this and that the situation looked like that of three years ago how Hazama's sister died.
Hazama went berserk again and killed the two lapdogs but Tony seemed to be on par with him.

Tony thought to had killed Hazama but he kept appearing time after time but Tony lured him into a trap that is so convenient.

As the scene goes back to sam and the professor he was asking what his dad was and then they noticed his father running away.

The scene goes back to Tony and the brain and after they talked there was Sam's father arrived on scene and what confused me is that the 8 man was not able to get a hit on Tony but sam's dad could do it with cyber junk parts.
Tony accidently destroyed the computers holding Hazama and the brain and Sam's dad gave the dose Hazama needed to recover his powers.

Tony seemed to be desperately attacking 8 man but his body started to fail and he made the place explode.

The only thing left of Tony is his head but not soon after it defected and we see Yokugawa and Hazama that survived the blast but Sam's dad died because of his injuries.

Hazama went with the professor after the incident and the night after that he was leaving the city because it was full of bad memories.
He now seemed to be grateful for his cyber body.

Yokugawa is left behind looking outside of her window as the movie ends.

After the ending song we get to see that Yokugawa found Sam and Hazama and now the ending credits appear and here ends the amazing adventure of 8 man after!


I have given 8 Man After a well deserved  4 out of 5 on Anime Planet

~The Anima-Ture~

Random Talk

With the 'Random Talk' i will just be blabbering about what i have seen between each random Talk.
If i happen to get a great deal on a title and such i could talk about it and such things as interesting sites to check out.
To start the first Random Talk i would be putting a list here of what i am watching at the moment :


As many call it "AH" which stands for Alfheim now which partly ruins the name of the series for me.
I am keeping an eye on this one as it has a very cool concept which some companies are currently working on which is virtual reality.

Those who keep an eye on gaming news sites know that Valve is currently developing special gear to make virtual gaming a reality in its early stages.


As bad the story is put together and all, i do keep watching until the bitter end.
Now with the 'Chikara' fillers we get a little insight how Kabuto perfected his reanimation spell and how he tries to achieve it.


Finally there is some action coming back as the fight with Hordy Jones kept going on which could've end in just a couple minutes.
That one mistake here that makes the whole plot of the power drug worthless and cheap is that the side effects of the drug could be growing old at a massive speed.

Months after months they have been taking the drug without any side effect and now at the end they 'suddenly' receive it and to top it all only the high ranking officers grew old.
They made Luffy overpowered but yet make him weak despite his power of the conqueror's Haki which is the strongest of them all.


I totally love the Shinki's!
This series is just fun to look at.
I am not sure but i would tag Busou Shinki with the Slap-stick genre because everything that happens is random and sometimes just, too weird for words.


This is the top 1 on my list because i can't wait for another episode!
The music, the humor, the action or rather said everything appeals to me. I just love it.

There are a couple others i am watching too but i keep it with this for now.


As for reading i have come to a halt since i was updating the Dutch version of The Animature and the WordPress version which surprisingly is getting 'WordPress likes'.
This means people do read what i have to write which makes my eyes water of happiness.


Okay enough for the eye watering!


I have been collecting Pictures that are from Pixiv artists because i like to collect them.
I can't let it slide to not save on on my computer that i like let aside the urge to look for more once i found one.

Perhaps i could do a featured picture or artist of the month thingy to share the name of the artist giving them more familiarity.
