I don't know if anyone in this thread remembers, but I made a thread on [vip] a couple weeks back asking how to get into anime as someone who knew next to nothing about it. I got some pretty good advice, which mostly boiled down to "just shut the fuck up and dive in."
So I signed up for Crunchyroll and FunimationNOW, and settled on FMA:B for my first foray into the medium.
Everything about it was absolutely fucking incredible. Like, Jesus Christ. I ended up watching all 64 episodes in a few days, and now it's basically all I think about. I'm pretty sure I want to replace my soul with it.
I finished Tokyo Ghoul last night, and am about halfway through Root A as my second series. It's alight. I kind of feel like I started with the absolute best in FMA:B, and it's all downhill from here. I'm sure it's not, I'll find something better, but that fact is hard for me to wrap my head around right now. I think I'll move onto Death Note next, apparently it's pretty great from what I've read.
I'm still trying to navigate the whole "culture" of anime though. There's just so much to learn and digest. I go to /a/ and I have no idea what I'm doing or what anyone is talking about. I want to stick with it though.
Pic related in a fucking weird way. I was typing this out, looked up, and this was the fucking banner at the top of the page.
