ANIMAX animes - Your comments and recommendations

[Maneki Neko]

Do you watch anime on Animax? What do you think of them? Any comments? Do you have any recommendations? Post them here. :)

[rambaldi]

i used to really like watching stuff on animax. daming bago, plus meron pa silang videos na pinapakita, like yui, arashi, gospellers...


pero parang di ko na masyadong ma-enjoy mula nung nag-dub na sila in english. cringe fest. basta. [:S]


anyway, i do watch some animax shows every now and then and i like fullmetal alchemist and captain tsubasa.

[Yui]

In fairness, I really liked their dub of Full Metal Alchemist.

And yay! They're showing Hachikuro and ParaKiss~

[rambaldi]

i guess their FMA dub is ok. kakatuwa nga yung kay alphonse, kasi parang galing pa rin sa loob ng armor, ang cute. di lang ako masanay na english ang naririnig ko.[:S]


i would love to see jigoku shoujo but it's on really late. [:(]

[hirodayuy]

I just hate Animax simula nung tinigalin na nila ang pagsubbed ng anime at dinubbed na lng ng mga pare parehung dubber nakakainis kada anime pare parehu maririnig mong boses hay nako hangan ngyun ganun pa rin, buti na lng pinalabas nila ung Music Station na may subbed.

cable channel in Japan and Southeast Asia, has announced the titles of
the winning entries in the Pan Asia Animation Competition of this
year's Animax Awards. This contest has
been held in Japan since 2002, but this is the first year that it has
been open to contestants from other countries. Competitors were invited
to submit a script, novel excerpt, or comic suitable for adaptation
into a 30- to 40-minute anime episode, based on either an original
character or one of the characters Animax
created for the contest. Over three thousand entries were received from
seven different regions, and six of the twelve finalists represent
various countries throughout Northeast, Southeast and South Asia.


Each of the regional finalists will receive a prize of US$2000.
An all-star panel of anime and manga industry professionals, including
A-1 Pictures president Hideo Katsumata, Kadokawa Shoten producer Takashi Watanabe, Animax Broadcast Japan president Masao Takiyama, and manga artist Hirohiko Araki (JoJo's Bizarre Adventure)
will then select the grand prize winner. The creator of the winning
entry will be awarded a cash prize of two million yen (about
US$18,000). The winning entry itself will be animated by A-1 Pictures
and broadcast on Animax sometime next year.



The stories that won the non-Japanese regional competitions are:



Hong Kong: "Serial Burglary"

India: "Legend of the Scarlet Samurai"

Philippines: "Laminated Woman"

South East Asia (Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand): "Guardian: Invader" (Malaysia)

South Korea: "Nuri the Secret Helper"

Taiwan: "The Final Dream Match"



They join the six Japanese finalists ("Hound Tooth," "The Mystical
Era," "Seizure of the Encyclopedia," "Jiku-uro, the Time Cutter,"
"Takane's Bike," "A Message from Myself"). Brief descriptions of the
twelve winning stories can be seen on the Animax Awards site (http://animaxawards.spti.com/sg/poll.asp).
Visitors from around the world are invited to select their favorite in
an online poll. The results of the poll will not affect the final
voting, but fifty voters will have a chance to receive a prize pack
containing various Animax promotional materials.

Here is the synopsis of Laminated Woman

Synopsis:
The
inhabitants of a harsh desert planet have perfected a system of
imprisonment without walls. Called “Lamination”, this system of virtual
slavery ensures that those convicted of serious crimes remain
productive, if not free members of society. The system has made both
jails and the death penalty unnecessary in a world where human
ingenuity, creativity and labour continue to be precious commodities
that cannot be replaced by robots or any form of artificial
intelligence.


Dr. John “Jack” Griswold sees his employment in
Cerra merely as a means of earning his keep while keeping his mind away
from a personal tragedy. Jack has no desire whatsoever to get involved
in the planet´s curious politics of “Lamb” liberation. But a meeting
with a laminated person, or “Lamb”, threatens to peel off the seemingly
cold exterior of this man hired to turn a red planet green.

I understand yung need ng mga "purists" to see subbed anime with Japanese audio..ako din naman mas gusto ko yung..ibang-iba yung delivery ng lines at yung expressions. Kaso, in fairness to Animax mas malaki yung audience nilang mas gusto yung dubbed anime kse its easier to understand nga naman...isa pa convenient kse di kailangan nasa TV yung full attention nila.

Plus in case of anime enthusiast mommies like me na may kids na mahilig din sa anime its good for the kids din kse mas nakaka-relate sila.

[hirodayuy]

@shoujo_jen-san: di ko alam yun kasi recently lang uli kami ngkaron ng animax hehe. at list my iba n plng gngwa ang animax ngyun hehe.

[Lady-Rinoa]

If I'm not mistaken, Saturday night. XD 8pm ata.

[hirodayuy]

ooooh? pero my mga sikat ba na kumakanta dun na prang music station? bakit kasi tinanggal ung music station err.

[Lady-Rinoa]

Ahm, wala. Hehe. XD Yun nga lang.

[hirodayuy]
