My Comment is Under Moderation?
Yeah, so just be patient since we are not necessarily by the blog 24/7 and if it isn’t considered as a spam it’ll pop up eventually. Remember to be civil and polite to others, while OPINIONS are free speech, keep in mind that there’s a limit, especially since people can step over the line easily without realizing it.

Where do you watch English subs/download anime?
Not all of us have access to the legal streaming services like VizMedia’s, Hulu’s, Crunchyroll, etc… due to region protection so we end up downloading/streaming FanSubs or rips.
If you are looking for places where you can subscribe like Funimation, Crunchyroll‘s Premium, HiDive, Amazon Prime (*US Customers Only), or just stream for free, other legal places to turn to are VizMedia, and Hulu.
If you are blocked due to region protection (mainly an issue for anyone OUTSIDE of United States) you can always check out other streaming sites that is very easy to find on Google.
NOTE: Also sometimes, and this happens: Not all the new shows are licensed by these companies so you are forced to turn to Fansubs no matter what. Go to MAL and look up the anime you’re looking for and there should be a FanSub group mentioned on the page.
***AND REMEMBER GUYS, IF YOU LIKE IT AND IT HAPPENS TO BE LICENSED, BUY IT!***

Why is this blog called AngryAnimeBitches, and yet there are guys?
The main reason was that when this blog started, it consisted only girls and no boys (they joined later).

What happened to Symphogear G??! D:
I dropped it.
Just wondering, do you guys have any news on Pupa? I was really looking forward to it and it was supposed to be aired in October, but…October is over. And Pupa hasn’t premiered yet. >.>
It’s surprising to us as well. If anything, the anime might have been delayed so it either airs now in November, or perhaps it will be a Winter 2013 show instead. Unfortunately I haven’t seen any news about it to confirm that though :\
Okay, thanks! 🙂 Hopefully they air it soon because I am DYING to watch it!
Was Diabolik Lovers dropped?
No. I’m still working on the review(s)
Okay, thanks! 🙂
I have one question to all bloggers in this site, why see something you know you’re going to hate?
Feel free(yes pun intended) to ignore this question if you can’t answer it.
It ultimately varies on the show. Sometimes we don’t hate it right away, or perhaps despite the odds we decide to give it a chance. If we end up hating it and it’s almost done, sometimes we continue the coverage for the sake of finishing it, while for some (believe it) actually have fun covering shows they hate or consider crap.
I understand you write your reviews for anime shows, but I was wandering if you (the team) were planning to review the recent Disney movie Frozen. I just really love your reviews.
you’ll have to wait for Eva to get back to you on that one ^^; I watched the movie awhile back though. Wasn’t very happy with it but eh.
Unfortunately no, we will not be reviewing Frozen here. As this is an Anime base blog, we tend to stick more to Japanese Productions rather than the Western Film/Productions and such. However I’ll only be open to perhaps creating a section for it if it’s a category that will be actively used- which I would need to discuss with the team since I don’t particularly like making new categories that never get touched again.
On the extra note I haven’t seen Frozen yet since I’m choosing to wait for it to appear on Netflix/Television.
Ok! 🙂 Thanks for the reply and keep up with the great work!
Question for the whole team: How do you watch your animes? Any special location? Any rituals before watching? Or something like that…
A quiet room for me because I can’t take notes and write out the entry if it’s noisy. A giant glass of water, crackers are a must- especially chocolate (usually mini Mars bars) if I happen to be tired, it helps keeps me focused. And always have tissues in case the episode ends up making me bawl like a baby. Oh and of course giving my family heads up to NOT interrupt me while writing unless it’s an emergency- because every time they do, they snapped me out of my zone.
What’s your opinion of streaming animes illegally?
Well I live in Southeast Asia where it’s impossible to stream anime LEGALLY (unless you count Animax that’s a cable TV channel that airs about 80% reruns so yeah) so my only option is to go through the illegal routes. I do make an effort to pick up merchandise, OSTs and DVDs whenever possible though.
Oh, me too.
It;s not exactly impossible, you can watch a teeny tiny number of animes on DAISUKI.
I think it’s okay when people don’t have access to legal streams, or titles that haven’t been licensed. However I always encourage people (who have this problem) to buy the DVD/BD release whenever possible because that’s the only way we can support them in return.
At the same time, I have a strong belief that illegal streaming definitely played a crucial part of encouraging companies to try and license new titles to fans sooner than later. Go back a couple of years, nobody (as far as I’m concerned) was releasing new titles like we see now days (aka at the same time Japan kicks off the new seasons). Anyone outside of Japan would have to wait at least two years or more before a company decided to license it and we were missing all the good stuff. Illegal streaming did play it’s part of showing companies that there is an international market, and thanks to that some people like myself have access to legal streaming + an offer to pay subscription to watch it as soon as it airs to support the anime industry.
I always support legal streaming whenever I can and post the links (which you can see in the above) for people who didn’t know existed or could use. I hope to expand on that for other regions such as Europe and Asia, but I haven’t found any yet.
I recently watched Lupin III: The Woman Called Fujiko Mine and I loved it! And I was wondering if you could please suggest any other Lupin III animes you may know or animes as mature as the one mentioned. Thank you! 🙂
I haven’t watched Lupin III, but I hear the Castle of Cagliostro movie is great. The least Lupin III-like but definitely one of the best. It’s directed by Miyazaki if I’m not wrong. I plan to check it out soon too 🙂 In terms of artistic style though I doubt you’ll really find anything like Fujiko Mine. But if you want anime that are great departures from the usual anime styles you can try anything by Masaaki Yuasa. I suggest Kemonozume, Kaiba and Tatami Galaxy if you haven’t tried them out yet. They’re very experimental, but all tell unique, mature stories (although that definition of mature is different from that of Fujiko Mine’s). Otherwise you can try stuff like Serial Experiments Lain, Technolyze and Haibane Renmei (my personal favourite) for more serious stories.
Are there any animes you consider ‘masterpieces’? I need an anime recommendation. thanks.
Depends on what you like, but here are some series I do consider masterpieces, or are at least series you should try for yourself at least once in your life because they’re incredibly unique: Mushishi, Natsume Yuujinchou, Haibane Renmei, Millennium Actress and Whisper of the Heart are some of my favourite entries in the slice of life genre. Absolutely amazing stuff IMO.
If you’re into action series Baccano is your best bet (but watch it till the end, it’s confusing at first but the ending will tie everything together and you’ll have an incredible moment realizing how everything comes together), along with HunterxHunter 2011 (the masterpiece episodes are the later ones though, this one starts off a bit slow but it’s my all time favourite shonen) and you can also try the Rurouni Kenshin Trust and Betrayal OVAs (no need to watch the original series, you can jump straight in).
For romance I’d suggest NANA (my all-time favourite, but stay away if you can’t take melodrama) and Honey and Clover. For sports – Chihayafuru, and I hear Cross Game is amazing too. I also think you should give Aquarion EVOL a try even if you’re not into mecha, along with the 80s Macross Do You Remember Love? movie. Also, Revolutionary Girl Utena if you haven’t already watched it yet.
If you’d like recommendations from any other genre just leave another comment and I’ll see what else I’ve got if the stuff I just mentioned isn’t to your genres of liking!
My personal favourites are: Kaleido Star, a Cirque du Soleil kind of show that is absolutely dazzling to watch (it’s only major flaw is it’s handful of fillers in S2 which you’re better off skipping because it doesn’t involve the heroine at all), Fate Zero, Chihayafuru, Eureka Seven, Rose of Versailles (PREPARE TISSUE BOXES, THIS WILL RIP YOUR HEART OUT), Revolutionary Girl Utena, Mawaru Penguindrum and the latest one addition to my list is Space Brothers (still on-going but absolutely flawless) oh and Clannad. I haven’t watched Afterstory yet because my heart is not ready.
