Okay, nerds. I need some suggestions. I'm really digging what Attack on Titan is doing but it's still got a bunch of teenage dipshits running around as the main cast.

Can someone suggest me a something that features an adults doing cool stuff?

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure (2012). The person who does series composition for AoT also did JoJo. It features absurd manly man punching absurd vampires. It's one of the most influential shounen series, but the story it is adapting is from the 80's (JoJo is still running today, 26 years later). Plus the second arc's protagonist (starting at episode 10) is one of the best goddamn protagonists in anime/manga.

@believer258: Yeah, Durarara is a slow burn.

Isn't a lot of anime like that? At least that's been my experience.

That has also been my experience. I find that when it's the opposite the show winds up not being so great, as in the case of Outlaw Star. An excellent first four episodes and then it spirals down into a broke bounty hunter Cowboy-Bebop-with-magic wannabe. Still not bad, just nowhere near as good as it could have been.

But OS is older than Bebop. The manga by two years and the anime by 4-ish months. It's also awesome. Or at least that's how I remember it. I haven't seen it in...when did it first air on TV in the US? 2001 it seems. Ugh. I feel old.

Something idiot "internet libertarians" and moronic Ayn Rand fanboys use to try to scam each other.

I usually only read the discussion threads on MAL for Hunter x Hunter and JoJo, which have been pretty ok, but after reading the episode threads for Titan there...is that place really full of complete fucking assholes? It's almost overwhelming. Between the people who are so desperate to spoil the manga, to the ones who are so desperate to prove how much smarter they are than some Japanese cartoon (there are a LOT of these types), I've never read something so infuriating.

And I'll apparently continue to do so until I evolve into a being that consists of pure rage.

@gtcknight:

I suspect some of the coming events are gonna be real divisive among the anime watchers.

I got a real gaming PC a few months ago but I'll still fall back on consoles for my main gaming needs, since the majority of games I enjoy or want to play are on consoles. In the past I never cared about resolution, graphical power, framerate or anything, and now that I can play most PC games maxed out...I still don't really care about that stuff. I care about the games I'm playing/want to play. If that game is on PC, I'll get it. If it's on PS3 or 360, I'll get it.

3x3 Eyes is pretty great. Gonna watch the OVAs soon-ish. I'm only 30-40 chapters in and it feels like a lot has happened already, but MAL lists it as having 576 chapters? This is gonna take a while.
