Anime Rising

OK, folks, its time for the third weekend of November. Ray has already beaten me to the punch for Bleach and Naruto, so lets see about some others that has updated recently as well. Keep an eye on this thread over the weekend, though, as I'm bound to add more to it.

Naruto Shippuden 85 has been subbed and released by Dattebayo and WOW, you guys are
in for a great episode.. Just beautiful to watch and very fluid animation that will
leave you wanting more! o_O
Both streaming video and direct downloads are up. Enjoy.

The hero of the piece is Sakuragi Hanamichi, a loud-mouthed, red-haired guy who has been rejected by girls 50 times in junior high. He meets the latest girl of his dreams, Akagi Haruko, and falls madly in love with her. He even goes so far as to join the basketball team to impress her, even though he knows nothing about the sport. But soon, he realizes that he truly loves basketball and he has talent for it. He's bitter rivals with Rukawa Kaede, both on the court and out of it, because Haruko worships the ground Rukawa walks on, though he hardly notices she exists. The other main characters are Akagi Takenori, Haruko's older brother who is also the captain of the team; Miyagi Ryota, who is in love with Ayako the team manager; and Mitsui Hisashi, a third-year former MVP (Most Valuable Player) who has been away from basketball for two years. Together, these unlikely misfits aim to transform Shohoku from a little-known team to the champion in all of Japan.
Note: This is my 4th sports releated anime (ES21/P.O.T/Ippo/SD), but mainly I posted
this because it is Basketball season.
An oldy-but-goldy anime, the quality is not the best, but you'll forget about it once you've gotten into the series.

The VERY exciting episode of Bleach 195 is up and to my surprise THE turning point of
the series has arrived. I was expecting it to happen in the next episode, but it makes sense that it happened on this episode.
Just watch lol. You'll know what I mean when you've watched the entire show.
Your face should be like this (^_^) by the time you're done..

This is an ongoing series, so look out for future episodes. I havent seen this series
