Woho been waiting for this one
Wow 900 post AWESOME!!!!!

[Ryllharu]

I haven't seen a series like this in a while. AirMaster was the last one of this genre I watched. I didn't even know I wanted one until I watched this eps.

Simple and good, people beating the crap out of each other tourney style.

Maybe I'll go dig Ikkitousen out and rewatch that too.

[nests]

How is Ikkitousen anyway the only reason I never whathed was becuase of the art.
About the episode it looks like I going to have to follow this one as well. Damn so many Anime, so little time

[Munsu]

Ikkitousen is good for some ecchi, some hot girls, and kickass action... Story could've been kinda interesting, but since it was short it got fucked up towards the end...

Ikkitousen is really a crappy version of Tenjou Tenge... still a good watch if you have time to waste, don't expect anything from it though...

[Aeon]

Weird I actually liked Ikkitousen more then I liked Tenjou Tenge, Ryofu>everyone in Ten Ten i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif. Anyways I'm bout to watch ep 1.

[Darknodin]

well... i must say, I didn't like the first 15 minutes of the show (although the intro was nice)... but I actually wanna know what is going to happen next. the prime mat fights seem better animated than the other ones so its good, and the intro was well animated too.

[Kraco]

The first thing I noticed is that the camera man sounds like he's voice acted by Ueda Yuji (http://www.animenfo.com/animeseiyuu,2,amhpic,ueda_yuji.html). Although I couldn't confirm it, because the sites aren't yet listing full info of this show.

I can't really say this type of show is quite down my alley, but if any sort of plot appears in the next episode, I think I'll keep watching this.

[dark maginn]

this series look pretty good im dling the first ep

[Munsu]

Episode 2 is out:

I'll start watching this series hopefully later on tonight, or tomorrow.

[Psyke]

To promote the upcoming DVD release, they got actress Matsumoto Mami to play the role of Wu Long.

[Kraco]

Although I don't really have anything else to complain about this series; the action is good, graphics and design decent if not optimal to my tastes and animation sufficient, but the one thing that bothers me is that the guys of the series are such weaklings. Of course it's a story about a fighting girl, but I'm not sure if it's necessary to emphasize that by making all the guys such weak characters. Instead, they could have made those random baddies and opponents a bit stronger. Well, maybe this is how shows like this are supposed to be.

[Kraco]

Wulong continues her fights (possibly, haven't watched this ep yet):

Episode 3 - LIME (http://saberlime.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/torrents/%5BLIME%5D_Fighting_Beauty_Wulong_03.avi.torrent)

Edit: Actually no fights in this ep. But next ep should get us to the real business. Almost.

[Munsu]

Just watched the first two episodes... but man this series is a piece of shit... At least it has some decent fights, I'll keep watching.

[Munsu]

Episode 4 is out:

http://kemuri9.com/lime/torrents/[LIME]_Fighting_Beauty_Wulong_04.torrent

This should be a good episode.

[Kraco]

Doh. It looks like they keep pushing the real action further and further away. This episode looked like it would be filled with action, yet it didn't end up having practically any. There was a great promise for very good action, but plot dictated otherwise. And thus even if the preview says the next ep will be all action, I'm not sure if I dare to trust in previews anymore.

Well, time will tell.

[Ryllharu]

It is getting rather aggravating that they seem to be just dangling good fights just in front of us, but never delivering. I ended up watching 3 eps of AirMaster just to make up for the difference.

When they finally get to the fights, they better be really good for the massive amount of buildup they keep pushing.

[Munsu]

Indeed, the actual series is just horrible. The charcters are very bad and uniteresting for the most part. At least it has some fun scenes here and there, and the hope for some kickass street-like fights keeps me watching this.

[Kraco]

If there's still no action, this might be the last episode I watch... Remains to be seen.

Episode 5 - LIME (http://kemuri9.com/lime/torrents/%5BLIME%5D_Fighting_Beauty_Wulong_05.torrent)

[Ryllharu]

I'll admit, I kept holding out, hoping this series would be another AirMaster, but it just can't match up to it in any way. 2 seconds of fighting broken up by twenty times that of worthless dialogue. I understand that wrestling is pretty big in Japan, and they take it very seriously in certain areas, but do we really need to hear about the importance of each aspect of it for over and over for minutes at a time, breaking up the action entirely?

Even the fighting isn't very good. It's a bunch of still shots with narration! AirMaster, Ikkitousen, Tenjou Tenge, and even Ranma 1/2 all showed full action. This series shows nothing.

I cannot see any reason to continue this series. The first 5 minutes of eps 1 were good, but the rest of the series apparently can't match up. Maybe in the last eps there will be a very impressive fight, maybe even the next one, but I can't keep watching this if they are going to break up the action. Fluid fights are all these series really have, and when they take that away, its just garbage.

[Munsu]

Well next episode we'll finally see some Prime Mat fighting, hopefully it'll be better than what we've seen so far. I'm going to continue this series till the end, even if it turns out to be garbage. I can at least muster a bit of enjoyment in each episode, and that's usually enough for me.

[Kraco]

Yeah. The worthless bs dialogue really broke this episode. But like Bud I think I will keep watching, at least for one specific reason: This fight was more like training and debut than any real decisive thing. Thus I hope the extensive dialogues that were inserted won't be repeated in future fights that supposedly are of greater importance. But if this trend despite everything keeps going, I might have to drop this series. There are good titles out there that I'm not watching for lack of time.

[Kraco]

I sure hope there will be some action, at last (but there probably won't...):

Episode 6 - LIME (http://lime.serveftp.com:6969/torrents/%5BLIME%5D_Fighting_Beauty_Wulong_06_%5B51529121%5 D.avi.torrent?72EFA4E1C90955089B0693DA87C0ECFF1D3E B2F3)

Edit: Actually I'm quite satisfied with this episode. To be strictly frank there wasn't huge amounts of action, but what there were, delivered quite nicely. Some of it was Lan's history, which was quite nice, in the same way the street brawls of the first episode. The Prime Mat fight was quite interesting. Of course it ended REALLY soon, but even then I think it was succesful, despite the fact it obviously didn't present much fighting. Perhaps just because the setting was so classical: under 50 kg girl vs over 100 kg tank of a bearded woman...

Episode 8:

[Shadow Skill]

Last episode was released almost a year ago.

Even though everyone else seems to hate this anime, I enjoyed watching it.

Wish LIME would continue releasing more episodes.

[Munsu]

Well, LIME had released episode 9 over a year ago:
http://lime-anime.com/torrents/[LIME]_Fighting_Beauty_Wulong_09.torrent

Now, there's a new group called Getbackers that picked it up claiming that they'll finish the series... they even started subbing the second season. Here's episode 10:
http://tracker.anirena.com/download.php?id=5937

For the second season episodes, go check tokyotosho... won't post them since I don't want to see any discussion of the second season until the first season is completely subbed.

Don't know if they're any good, but much worse than LIME I doubt it.

[Shadow Skill]

Yes, I noticed. Thanks a lot. :) <3

Finally, I can watch more. Downloading now. :) <3
