Basically, what I meant was that people roaming within CR forums would enjoy nearly anything. But no, I never meant to say Dragonaut is streaming on CR. I mean, have you ever seen their ratings and their forums? Everything is rated above 4 stars(out of 5).

And why should I be forced to buy crap simply because I want to support the industry? It's rather rational: don't buy crap you don't want to see more of around.
By the way, the act of using CR or watching fansubs won't stop you from buying DVDs. "Oh, I don't watch fansubs because I support the anime industry!". Yeah, as if it works like that. |

Oh you know what I meant! Yes, yes, they, technically didn't "CREATE" them, but they produced one heck of an adaption!!! Welcome to the NHK is, by far, one of the best animes about the harshness of human society and social isolation. Both of those aspects also made romance element in NHK to be quite satisfying... Even though they didn't kiss or anything... (Episode 7 came close though!!!!!) Saikano wasn't AS impressive to me as NHK, but the message it told was clear and painfully true... I don't care what anyone says: Gonzo still has the potential to make masterpieces! We just need to be patient... And even IF they are done for good, well, we know they left a HUGE dent in Anime, and that alone makes me completely content all the same! |

I know! I mean, I'm watching Natsume Yuujinchou and really enjoying it, but every episode is getting a 5/5 rating, which is ridiculous. It's very good, but I guess I tend to reserve that high a rating for complete masterpieces.
Which is why so many fans, myself included, still at least watch the start of just about every show they produce. We really want that next masterpiece; a lot of GONZO hate is really GONZO disappointment. And as for patience, well... their financial difficulties of late make me worry whether they're going to last much longer.  Hopefully if that day comes, their best and brightest will wind up at other studios, enriching them.

Actually, didn't a few guys at the top leave and start a new animation studio? I vaguely remember ANN reporting something like that a while ago. |

You and me both brother, I was just horrified on how bad this was. When I saw at the Alamo 2 weeks ago I didn't expect it to be that bad. Boy was I suprised. It was just pitiful on GONZO and Funimation's part. The dub just felt plain lazy. The costant mispronoucing of the character's Japanese felt like the Funimation and Aniplex dubs of the latter 1990s. Hell I thought the 1996 Kenshin dub was bad! The storyline was so messy and confusing I couldn't even find a character to relate to. The CGU looked dated, like something on the Dreamcast from 1998! Of course that's not saying the Dreamcast is bad But this is the late 2000s! Dragonaut, fails pure in simple. This from the creator of the Witchblade anime. By that instead. This is a waste of money. Piffle.
I myself was just shocked on how terrible this title is.
Even THEY know it's bad.
I myself just can't believe what a horrid pile of crap this latest effort from Gonzo is. Just why, WHY Gonzo after great releases, like Kaleido Star,Samurai 7,Witchblade,Desert Punk,Speed Grapher did you have to go and make this abomination?! The ANN review was just too easy on this. The dub should get a pure F. Just terrible. Story: D I don't know what the hell is going on with the storyline.
Trust me, the first volume was enough to convice me that there entire series is a utter FAIL! [EDIT: In the future, do not use 4-5 consecutive posts to respond to points in different posts. Condense them into a single post, as I have done for you here. - Key] |

There are two distinct offshoots right now. A couple producers started David Production some time ago. They're contracting some of the same talent as modern Gonzo (i.e. some Shangri-La staff have been working on The Book of Bantorra, etc.), although they've yet to tackle any original productions. The original founder started Lambda Film. |
