In Gundam Age's case it lacks military realism (lol they're definitely in need of 'trained' military personel.
It also lack the other kind of realism (dunno what the word is, but it has something to do with the unrealistic actions of other characters)

I actually see many good things about AGE, but those 'things' (could be minor or major) makes me forget about the good things. I do know I'm biased though xD

That wasn't the thing that truly annoyed me in the episode though.
It was something you mentioned:

At the end of the episode, when he used the Gundam...they started saying some things that made me really embarassed for watching Gundam AGE. Tottaly retarded and cheesy lines -.-.

Congratulations board on reaching this milestone.

I will save praise for when we reach 10000

BTW, more than half of my posts were here (I haven't been platinuming in 4 months++ already)

I re-read One Piece a few weeks ago, so i won't be doing that again for a while!

Also finished reading 3 Mangas in the past few days.

Rurouni Kenshin: Enjoyed reading it, liked the ending.

Elfen Lied: I jumped through most of it because i watched the Anime. The gore was probably the best of it. Ending was also sweet.

Kekkaishi: Stupid pages. Took ages to load them -__- The best out of those 3. Stupid ending though, wish that last arc would've taken longer.

For the avid manga readers here: Do you guys pay attention to the details, such as background, and about what actions the characters are about to do?

I just normally read is fast, just prioritizing the text and paying less attention on the actions and especially the background, and so I know the the reason why I ask myself when I see some scenes in an anime: " Oh, so that's how he did it?" or " That happened? never knew about that"

I've put many mangas (like skip beat or Kare Kano) on indefinite hold (you could say it's dropped at this point)

The ones I eagerly wait : Hourou Musuko, Claymore, Break Blade, Naruto and One Piece
The ones I read just for the sake of completion: Fairy Tail, Nurahiyon, Vampire Knight, & Pandora Hearts (getting better now though)
The ones I really want to read but cannot due to lack of scanlations: Ookiku Furikabutte

You were waiting for this moment?

I'm amazed that nobody mention Naruto's birthday.

Well, he mentioned that One Piece rulez, isn't that enough?

Naruto: What a twist... Honestly, this been speculated a million times so seeing it come true is quite lackluster. And now that he summoned his triumph card, can Itachi finally get rid of the worst thing this manga ever had.

And I'm glad I hardly visit any manga related forums these days. Cause I wouldn't want to read all the crack theories about who Tobi is again. Especially the Obito one...

A twist? I thought it was kinda working up to that scenario when Kabuto first showed "Madara" to Masked Madara. The question of who Madara is can be almost anyone now really from Obito to Izuna (Madara brother) to even one of the Sage sons, gotta love the guessing game

I don't read a lot of manga, mainly beacuse there isn't any store that sell it anywhere close to where I live. I do watch anime though, but not so much lately sadly.

Finished watching Angel Beats a while ago though. And I thought the show was so-so up until the last few episodes. What great drama it was. Almost had me teary-eyed for a second there.

I rewatched One Piece this summer, I haven't seen it since it was picked up by 4kids. I watched about 490 episodes in a few weeks, and I'm all caught up now.

Anyways, anyone know for sure what Ace's tattoo meant? I'm pretty sure the S means Sabo....Am I right?
