Title: How often do you watch UY?
Post by: nebbo on January 20, 2008, 11:41:00 PM
Time for some demographics, are you really the lumaholics you put yourselfs out to be?  ;D If you vote at the very top you are a true lumaholic. Take note that every single day doesn't really mean every single day, it just means usually every day. Same goes for the rest.

I voted semi-daily, but then again there are periods when I don't watch it at all for weeks, like if I'm hooked on another series. How about you?

I tend to go through stages of wanting to watch it. It's directly linked to how much time I spend playing mmo's.

I voted once a week because I don't watch it for a while then have a monster session and get right back into it.

Right now, I cannot get enough UY :P

I don't watch it everyday because I'm busy with homework, studies, Anime & Manga, Japanese, Games and Forums of course. I watch it semi-daily.

I voted for "Less" I was going to vote for "I've seen it once, why would I watch it again?" but since I sometimes get nostalgic I watch some random episodes from time to time...
This doesn't mean that I'm less "lumaholic" than any other of you, it just means that I don't have that much free time... XD

Less.

I don't really like watching TV and what not, personally. When I do watch it though, I go into marathon mode and spend a week or two watching the whole series, including movies and OVA's and what not. Actually, that's kinda how I am with any anime when I get the urge to watch it.

I prefer to read the manga. The ILM scans have become probably the most read files on my computer.

It's funny, I just got done with a marathon watching of UY and just started reading the manga again today.

Voted "Less" for the following reasons:
- I'm mostly a gamer, so I play a lot more games then I should, which doesn't leave much time for much else. :P
- I gave up on getting the UY episodes, because my internet doesn't allow too many downloads (I'd have to get like 1 episode a week and skip a week each month) and I don't have any place to store them (all the ones I had, as well as all the episodes of AMG are now corrupted in my portable harddrive :-\).

So I guess I won't be seeing any more episodes, though I do have a very good idea of most episodes. :P

Semi-daily. Still deep in the learning curve (some of you may have noticed ::)) so I watch and re-watch to pick up details. That, and it's too cold right now to go out into the garage and work on the racecar (making the watching of UY the perfect excuse to avoid shivering and cursing over the bent front axle beam on my Formula Vee >:))....

Post by: Forgotten_Lum on January 21, 2008, 05:56:12 AM
i'd have to say every single day, very rare that i dont see UY at least once a day, even when im gaming, i turn on the tv and hit play on my dvd player, sometimes i sync up my killing with "DARLING No Baka!!!", especially when i'm playing warcraft 3 and i'm using chain lightning, even when i leave the house i never forget my ipod and the episodes i have on it

I would say less as well because, well ta-da welcome to adulthood, and so, time is lacking I only get to see an episode a day and currently watching another anime (I can't have rice everyday)
Title: Re: How often do you watch UY?
Post by: sidzero on January 21, 2008, 12:54:06 PM
Oh... I just wanted to share something. Anyone who doesn't watch it because they don't have it, you can find all the movies and all but the last "season" on YouTube. Seems like they're trying to get the last season and the OVA's up now. I got a link to the user that seems to be organizing the whole thing, so if anyone wants it, I can share.
Title: Re: How often do you watch UY?
Post by: Cosmic King on January 21, 2008, 05:41:04 PM
well ta-da welcome to adulthood

I think it could sound better if ya said : "i have more responsabilities now",janus,da other phrase made it sound as if ya were saying anime is only for children and youngsters (which of course,isnt)

Anyways,the status of lumaholic cant be measured by how many episodes we see,it is with the passion we watch them
Title: Re: How often do you watch UY?
Post by: janus on January 21, 2008, 06:48:50 PM
I guess you're right Cosmic, that is a better way to put it, now I can't goof off now as I did back then *sight.....*
Well I have all the UY series,ovas, movie and manga; as I stated a while back the manga seems more appealing to me than the series, but I'm scared to be hooked on it again meaning a lack of sleep  ::)

True, spoken like an old hokuto shinken sensei  :)

Some advice for those that find that they lack the time, eat in front of the tv. No matter how busy you are you still have to eat right?  ;D

Well, according to Maslow you wouldn't even be interested in watching anime if you were starving, so it doesn't present a problem :) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maslow%27s_hierarchy_of_needs

Post by: Necron 99 on June 13, 2008, 02:22:19 AM
I don't watch it anymore. I sold all my DVDs.

As I became exposed to more interesting anime, such as Lupin III, Akira, Cowboy Bebop, Death Note, Fist of the North Star, Vampire Hunter D, Ninja Scroll, Wicked City, The Big O, Outlaw Star, Trigun, Great Teacher Onizuka, Samurai Champloo, Metropolis, Ghost in the Shell, and FLCL I lost interest in UY.

UY episodes are really only worth watching once. Looking back on it, it's decent but not great.

some Animes are like that: some are disposable and other somewhat permanent, that you keep watching until you grow sick of it. This applies to all media.
There is so much anime to watch, that one lifetime isn't enough to got through it all :Y)

everydays, because those are my last shoots: Mary Victory will arrive soon and the pc is in her bedroom.

.... but I'm going to buy a laptop  :D

In any case, I need it to continue my work with the comic "UY, A new beginning from the end"  ;D

Of course, I have recorded all UY episodes, movies and OVAS in DVD's and when I want to see them again I just sit down and watch on my dvd player.

Of course animes come and go and I have seen some animes that now are  in my head but the classics are forever remembered.

Well, I have already seen the series but I watch some random episodes somedays while I'm waiting for the movie's and OAV's torrent download.
Title: Re: How often do you watch UY?

i have the movies and all the episodes in dvd's. i watch a episode every night :)

Post by: Kroptik on July 15, 2008, 07:46:03 PM
I've been watching about 4 or 5 episodes a day, and saving up stuff that might be useful for a fanfic (if one ever comes).

I don't have the OVAs and movies anymore though, and I'm missing some of the episodes. I can't download them because I'll probably lose my internet for a week if I do it, so I guess I'm stuck. :S

on youtube, there's no choice but to split the episodes into 3 parts.
veoh is full eps though and you can find them easily by clicking the links in my (what is it called? message thing?) The text that appears at the bottom of each of MY posts.

Ie, look below VVV
