Paranoia Agent

Post by SSX-Killjoy »

I have managed to catch a few episodes, and it would seem to be a very mentally twisting series.

The one cool thing I like about it, is that the hero is on the same edge as all of the people Paranoia Agent is supposed to be dealing with. Which leaves a wonderful premise to the series.. If the hero ever vanquishes PA, will PA be gone? or is he just unable to see him anymore becuase he has managed to deal with the mass trauma that controlls him?

Anyways.. Cool animation, a diabolical intro, and catchy music make this an enjoyable series so far.

Oddly enough, I've been eyeballing that over the past couple days. Have ARRRRR release of it, have yet to get around to watching it though.

It'll be my first foray into anime focusing on dementia. well.. that is if you don't count FLCL and Lain :rolleyes: . They made sense to me, at least :D

As noted to me before when I mentioned a certain "mobile-device" fansub group, naming fansub groups are a no-no on the boards ^_~ So go edit :p

:weird: fansub group names are a no-no? :weird:

well, guess i haven't been keeping up enough. I'll edit it.

Well, probably because they make sense to me BD, lol. But that may have something to do with the fact that I've watched them enough times to have figured them out (or at least I think I have).

meh, we'll see :p

n haha, now futile will have to edit his quote ^^

I edited for you.

You're a pirate now.

Also, the fact they make sense to you is a good thing. But they're still about (well not quite when it comes to SEL, but in the very close neighbourhood) dementia.

Also, Fut's quote e-d-i-t-e-d.

I'm at the 6th or seventh episode I think, what can I say... weird series xP. From some online reviews I heard from it that 'it makes no sense at all, untill you see the last episode'
Can't wait :D
