wow- this show is pretty sweet. I'm surprised it isn't more popular. I must say, though, sometimes the characters faces look a little screwed up (only complaint)

Budweineken · 2004-05-02, 08:23

Yeah, I'm also surprised that it isnt more popular... it may have been at it's time, but right now not many people talk about it....

Episode 23 was awesome... I'm glad onigiri is back to work

One question... was the policy in talking about new episodes without spoiler tags... how long should we wait before discussing without spoiler tags?

That's the one thing I'm not sure on. However, not everyone will be up to date on any one series, but they may still want to know what others have to say. I think just to be safe...use them. That's my take on it.

They have an IRC bot where I can catch this series?

Beware... Some XDCC bots will ban download/leecher bots if that's that you're using.

I watched the first ep of shadow skill, then stopped when they started animating the fights with 2 frames of the actual action and 12 frames of showing kanji letters.

I'd say give it another chance. Yea...the martial arts language sequences are..."unique" but that's only when they use it. Don't let 3-5 seconds of kanji kill the 20 something minutes of story for you.

In later episodes... the kanji sequences are not as abundant... so definitely dont let that stop you from watching this

Spiggy · 2004-05-23, 14:53

Ok...just saw this and it doesn't exactly tell you much. Like Shadow Skill fashion it's another cliffhanger type ending.

Spoiler:

With 2 eps left it makes me wonder if they'll close some things up, leave them open for a possible 2nd season, or just leave them open for speculation.

BTime · 2004-05-24, 15:54

I'm gonna be sad when it's finally done. Can't say that Shadow Skill is one of my favorites, but I do experience a moment of glee when a new release is put out.

The animation is old-school in style and fits the series pretty well. A 2nd season would be great as there's quite a big world out there to be explored.

|Aion| · 2004-07-15, 23:59

It was a great series,im definetly glad i stayed with this one, regardless of how long it took to see all of it.Thank you R-B and Onigiri for doing this series. I wont tell anyone how it ends, just watch for yourself, its a pretty sweet ep.

Now that thats finished next on my wish list has got to be Condor Hero for completion.Im willing to wait but i get sad when i dont have a new fix.

SSJMax · 2004-07-16, 07:28

ok i youst saw the last eps and i em still wondering what happens to the bad guy the is lau-san gang the has 2 balls in his hand and his always in the dark

DeluxSkillz · 2004-07-16, 08:15

ah yes this was great though not as great as the movie and the OVA's the animation on those is top notch and almost no anime can compete now a days, i really liked this serie because i was a big fan of the movie and the OVA's and after looking past the crappy animation(at times) i found this anime to be very pleasing

quikimpulse · 2004-09-25, 23:11

Well i didn't see anyone else who has made a thread for this anime. If there is then the M.O.Ds will move it. Anyway I am currently watching this and it is somewhat different from the ovas. Anyway i just wanted to hear your opinions of the series. So plz post here.

It's a good series, I love it. Lots of character development, excellent fight scenes (some of the best) and above all... it's fun to watch.

Here are a couple of clues to help you in the future.

Use the "search" feature, it's not that difficult to search for "Shadow Skill" (better yet, use "Advanced Search" and select "Search Titles Only").
Read the stickies, especially this one, Series Discussion Index (found in this very forum)

Spiggy Invisible Join Date: Feb 2004 Location: Ohio for now Age: 44	Ep 24 Ok...just saw this and it doesn't exactly tell you much. Like Shadow Skill fashion it's another cliffhanger type ending. Spoiler: You get to see some red-head summoner chick who looks like she's on crack. You get to see the back of Lunar's head but you don't get to see her face. She kind of looks like a 14 yr old girl from her outline. It still doesn't explain who the guy is who likes playing w/ his balls. Ep25 looks like it will be more interesting than this one. Oh yeah, you get to another glimpse of how Elle feels towards Gau. This was probably the best scene in this episode and how it lead into it. With 2 eps left it makes me wonder if they'll close some things up, leave them open for a possible 2nd season, or just leave them open for speculation.
