I am not japanese.... ( im studying it though! )

and i really wan't to see some good anime, but i have no idea how, and where to start looking. (this might sound stupid) I really wanna watch "Sword/magic/fantasy" style anime... :crybaby: :sick:

got any links of free anime you can watch/download?

not many people are japanese and don't know how to speak it here i think. Getting free animé is quite hard to find but I can only think of the file sharing sites but they have loads of viruses encrypted on them. Otherwise there should be other people in your area that have a similar interest. Magic - full metal alchemist is good for that from what i've seen (only the first episode). Sword - samurai X?

I would suggest "Slayers", a rather old but still very nice series. Swords, magic, and fantasy. Well, actually, there's more magic to it than swords, but I think it'll fit your criteria alright. Here's a link to a site that should give you an idea of what "Slayers"' like, though beware the spoilers . . . :ph34r: . . .

However . . .

I would suggest acquiring anime via the appropriate channels. :ph34r:

I allways buy my anime, its one industry that should continue to get cash inflow if you want more of it.

http://animesuki.com/ is a great source for unlicenced anime, which is legal to download in the United States (or any country but Japan) until it is licensed.

If you don't want to buy anime right away, you can rent anime from smaller video rental places, or sign up with Netflix or Blockbuster's online rental thing... they have a lot of anime DVDs

I don't have any suggestions to where to d/l free anime. However, if you like magic, fantasy etc, try renting/buying Sorcerous Stabber Orphen-I personally like that.

I second anime-suki, I always use it! ^_^

like i said ivan, SSO has the lot... both of them do.

hmm, im gonna try to download some episodes of Bleach first.

OMG&#33;&#33; Is BIT-TORRENT SO SLOW?????&#33;

Like 4 Min = 0,1 MB??&#33;?&#33;

*hits computer with a wallet* :heh:

OMG&#33;&#33; WHY is the downloads EXTREMLY SLOW?

:cry: I will never be done with it&#33;

maybe there arent many seeds for that file.
I suggest Monster~ It fits into none of those catagories, but the anime TOTALLY kicks ass. There&#39;s a bunch of seeds for it, too.
This tells a bit about the anime (http://www.anime-keep.org/showproject.php?layout=1&ID=60)

and here are the torrents (http://animesuki.com/series.php/378.html)

It&#39;s nothing really. ^_^

I would suggest Inuyasha...

*sigh* No use... i guess i wont be able to get any Anime free... :cry:

WEEEEEEEE&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33; I Downloaded 2 episodes of Inuyasha&#33; (ep. 58 and 70)
and it rocks&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33; Im about to download episodes from 67 to 78&#33;


------------
Currently downloading Full Metal Alchemist&#33; (can&#39;t wait to watch it&#33;)

:neko:

btw, im not using Bit-Torrent. it takes WAAY to long, i prefer using DC++ (Direct Connect) :whistle:

Yay&#33; btw, don&#39;t double [or triple] post. :nono:

i wouldn&#39;t suggest Inuyasha. Extremely long and repetative. Plus the ending sucks.

Full Metal Alchemist is good. And so is X/1999.

Oh and, generally liscenced anime is not free. Support the anime business and just buy it.

Rofl BT slow? I download anime real fast on that thing. Pick the ones with more seeds&#33; I once dled at 300kbs/s and finished downloading an episode in 12 mins (a record for me).
I usually get it for like 50kb/+ on nicely seeded torrents.
Bleach slow on BT? Get the Lunar release, lots of seeds there. And you&#39;ve made a good choice on picking Bleach, I watch it and it&#39;s amazing. Just watchout 4 the cliffhangers.

On another note, maybe 1. You have the wrong ports open (I 4got wich range is best)
2. You don&#39;t allow anyone to upload.
You should leave it for a bit, BT takes a while to kickup because it works on a ul/dl ratio.
So the more you upload, the faster you download&#33;

nm, i won&#39;t say what i was going to say as it may conflict with 1 or more rules in the guidelines ;)

:whistle: well..... uhh... :heh:


ANYWAYZ&#33; i now got Inuyasha Episodes 1-10 + 25 + 38 + 40 + 58 + 70 + 98 + 128 + 161&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33; and its the best anime i&#39;ve ever seen&#33;

ooh, btw i got Full Metal Alchemist ep. 3 + 17 + 37 + 38 (soon 39) + 40 + 47 + 49 to 51. :neko:


I LOVE ANIME&#33; :D :D :D

Thank YOU all&#33;

I suggest Bleach, it&#39;s really quite good&#33; ^_^

full metal alchemist is good.. well its excellent.. lol
initial D is good.. its about cars...
azumanga... hahah its soo cute and funny&#33;&#33;

kenshin - not that much magic though, more like swords and story, but super speed could be considered as fantasy....

i think final fantasy is sword/magic/fantasy....isn&#39;t it? :think:

I recommend Tokyo Mew Mew&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33; ^_^

hmmm~~ www.animesuki.com has a lot of kewl animes go check it out :D

Tokyo Mew Mew??&#39;

What kind of anime is that? :heh:

Oi, don&#39;t laugh at Tokyo Mew Mew&#33; It&#39;s good, but you might not like it, it has no dragons. <_<

keh&#33; It was just a reqest. nothing important... ... tell me about Tokyo Mew Mew&#33; sounds .... intresting -_-

(Hehe&#33;) A girl is going on a date, and she, er, gets turned into a kinda half cat. (Now it sounds dumb DAMNIT&#33;) <_<

HEHE&#33; Sounds intresting&#33; but the problem would probably be: "HOW can i get it..."

:poke: hmm... i will see if i can find it with my :think: ....Program.. :whistle:

It&#39;s been licensed by 4Kids Entertainment. Don&#39;t ask for licensed anime again on this forum.

Yeah, if you do then Angelic will kick your ass. DOWN WITH PIRACY.

I don&#39;t care about piracy much, I just don&#39;t want this forum to get closed because of people exchanging illegal media here.

it&#39;s funny what people will post on public forums... and then they wonder "HOW DID THEY FIND OUT?&#33;"

_Youkai_: I&#39;d suggest your local Best Buy or equivalent, or dvdplanet.com

*coughs* I need titles and web-site URL&#39;s... -_-


and maybe........&#33; :shifty:

Huzzah for ebay&#33;

If you need places to shop for anime, just google them.

I&#39;m not really bothered though, what with pretty much all of it being either American or Japanese, and me being British, and also the fact that I highly doubt some guy from the MPAA or whatever actually gives a crap what a bunch anime fans talk about.

if you want to find the best price online, use Google&#39;s Froogle (http://froogle.google.com/). Although if you want REALLY cheap anime I&#39;d suggest contacting a local club. A lot of times they&#39;ll sell used anime or be able to point you to stores that do so.
