Go watch Ga-rei Zero. That should cure it. Add in a dash of Mouryou no Hako and To Aru Majitsu no Index and you're practically cured.

Dropped Index. Mouryou no Hako is too tedious and Ga-Rei seems to be pioneering snuff anime. Bounen no Xamdou is currently irreplacable on my watchlist unlike those shows.

I actually disagree with the first one. Oh well, tastes differ.

Gai-rei Zero gets into an actual storyline of sorts at episode 3.

Kannagi's not too bad.(episode 3 was quite funny) Toradora's pretty fun (Though I kinda like the visual novels a little more... but the later eps seem to be getting better)

Kurozuka's really bloody but has some incredible fight scenes and visuals.

I might also suggest reading perhaps 20th Century Boys if you have some time.

Nothing replaces Bonon no xamdou though.. but it's still worth checking.

Caught up to episode 13 so far, and damn, I'm glad I did.

It's already freaking early in the morning, so I just wanted to say that Akiyuki's parents have been sleeper hits for me when it comes to characterization. Really excellent stuff, the drama and the tension... I find it interesting that there's a theme of parenthood quite prevalent in the story.

Of course, Nakiami is still awesome as well. I can't wait to see how Akiyuki and Nakiami will go on from here on. Plus, the whole conflicted Haru and messed up Furuichi has just made the drama even muddier.

In the end, it's just entertainment. If it's not airing, find something else to watch.

Yozakura Quartet, Casshern, Tytania....

Has 20th Century Boys come out on DVD yet? If it's subbed, then that's a possibility also.

[Mashimaro]

What episode is the most recent? stuck on 13 or 14/15 is already out?

I marathon'ed 20 Century Boys and 21st Century Boys over a weekend, definitely looking forward to that. I'd suggest everyone to give it a read. You will not regret it. Absolutely. (well I could nitpick a little here and there but I almost read it all in one night ;_; )

I love the ending song..<3

[zalem]

For the love of god, Xam'd better be airing this week. Hasn't it been three weeks already? I need more Xam'd...

it wont

Technically we should get episode 13 next week, and then 14 the week after that. Technically.

For all I know they might take an even longer break despite the Japanese having caught up lolz

[taufiq1991]

can any1 explain me why are they stuck? i dont understand u guys that they are catching up.
and which team sub this anime? cuz i only got to episode 12 by GGR. what does GGR stands for? do they have their own website? or at least IRC?

[jpwong]

"They" are stuck because Sony isn't releasing any new episodes to the network to allow Japan to be at the same episode as america. And since it's pre-subbed by the studio or Sony, whoever you're getting it from probably isn't really subbing it. They're just encoding whatever comes out of the PS3.

Xam'd is streaming already subed =)

[jorez]

Maybe they want to be pair-to-pair with Japan's PSN streaming.

As reported a few weeks back, that is the reason.

[Mei19]

I'm just glad I found this series right at the end of its 3 week break. Fun! New episode next week.

Uh, not really. Japan got episode 11-12 this week, so the next week they'll get episode 13, which we have already got (thanks to a "leak"). So unless you've been strictly getting Xam'd through the PSN network and wasn't "present" at the time when episode 13 was temporarily put up on the PSN network, episode 13 that'll (presumably) come the next week is hardly "new"

[zalem]

Was episode 13 aired or not? I already saw the leak a while back, but I want to know if we can expect episode 14 next week.

[ani_d]

Oh gosh x_x Don't tell me the new episode still hasn't aired. I've already come and gone. I feel like I've been waiting for years. ^^
