*swoops in to thread box* I have come to garner opinions of the new anime Higashi no Eden! BEWAAAAARE.

I haven't actually managed to find any episodes in English on Youtube - I guess they haven't been translated yet - but it looks GOOD, in my opinion. I think there are only supposed to be 11 episodes, each chronicling a day.

I suppose the only reason I found out about it was because Oasis' "Falling Down" is the theme song (I like to think of that song as one of my many lovers). Here is the English trailer and the totally boss theme song.

I love the animation in it, personally - and just the entire premise sounds very interesting. Plus the way that the two main characters meet is just... hilarious XD

So, let us discuss it! :D

plus the cowboy bebop parody at 1:20 makes me smile.

I intended to at least try this for the novelty of non engrish English in a Japanese show. But I haven't yet.

Damn. I was lead astray.

Fine then, I'll watch the show for the Engrish, not any other thing that could ever possibly be good.

*blinks* I admire your straightforwardness.

Well, they used to be. Recently, though, one of the band members has taken over the lead vocals, and he's far better than the original singer.

As for the Engrish, there's not that much of it. The spoken English sounds genuine - like actual Americans playing Americans, not Japanese playing Japanese. Which is rather nice.

My school did a 24-hour marathon type thing, and Eden of the East was one of the anime they played. It was actually the only one I was mildly interested in keeping up with. I really enjoyed it! XD

I also live near DC, so to see them depict it was amusing to me. ;D


...I actually thought the English was pretty good... :\

Holy shit Gallagher not being part of Oasis.

Now if they could only get rid of the other one so they can get rid of any sense of individuality they had back in the '90s, they may actually put out a good record.

I actually heard pretty clearly. "Hey young lady, what did you just throw?"
Whatever. :P To each their own.

I've heard worse Engrish, that's all I'll say.

Wellll... true, but, I still don't think it was that bad...
and in any case, they're back in Japan now, so I guess it doesn't really matter.


I think my favorite part was when the guy killed those two men by motioning a gun with his fingers and saying "Bang" :3

Holy Gawd, he's not? Wikipedia lied to me. :C

Personally, I fail to see any conformity with current music that they have at the moment :yuusaku: Their music sounds just as unique to me now as it did on the Morning Glory album. But perhaps I'm a philistine.

This is waaaay off-topic. Whoops.

Ok, I've got a better reason to watch this now. A friend of mine IMed me and had this to say:

Spoiler: Episode 5
In eden of the east 5 a character is a serial killer that kidnaps middle aged men and cuts off their dick with a cigar cutter.


Those exact words. That's pretty good motivation. I'll get right on that.

I didn't like the ending but it was a nice episode. And the series overall was nice.
Spoiler:
But it felt wrong that Pantsu survived it took away that whole "Dead and a hero" thing.
