    Why would you go through that much effort to torrent Gantz, of all things?

    I felt like trying my hand at a Let's Watch/liveblog, and I figure it'll be easier to liveblog a piece of crap because I can make funnier observations (hopefully). Yes, I don't think it's going to be good.

    I'm not sure if we've had this thread before, we might have, but I know the feeling of an anime torrent taking forever. Out of curiosity how big is the Gantz torrent in terms of Gigabytes and the average speed you are getting.

    ^ 5.06 GB, 2 seeds and 7 peers. For the record, it's gone up to 17.4% in fifteen minutes.

    If you're doing a liveblog, I don't see why you can't find a streaming site somewhere and watch it like that. Unless you want to post screenshots or something.

    ^ Yeah, that's what I was thinking. Given what I've heard of this series, there should be some hilariously disgusting images I can provide for humor's sake.

    Dude, Gantz?

    Ummmm.... my advice is don't.

    That said, I can sometimes end up torrenting for days, though BakaBT is usually really quick.

    Hm. I just realized something because of that: humorous in intent or not, would anyone actually read a liveblog of Gantz? If not, at least that means I can watch Princess Tutu or Ika Musume or something.

    Till shade is gone, till water is gone, into the Shadow with teeth bared, screaming defiance with the last breath, to spit in Sightblinder’s eye on the last Day.
    When I torrent a series, I usually torrent a few episodes at a time so that I don't have to wait a whole day or two to start.
  • AHRAHR
    5 seasons of Angel. One torrent.

    WHOOH.
  • MyrmidonMyrmidon
    This is kind of embarassing, but.

    What's torrenting?
  • AHRAHR

    I could see how that could take two months to torrent.
  • TheConductorTheConductor
    -Nods-

    And to be fair, I did stop it for like 3 weeks because I was visiting my grandparents in England and didn't want to gobble their bandwidth.

    If the whole thing is filler, then nothing is.

    It sounds like it is taking ages mainly due to the low amount of people sharing it.
    Perhaps if you tried a more popular/mainstream Series it would be faster.

    If you must eat a phoenix, boil it, do not roast it. This only encourages their mischievous habits.
    Yeah, I've managed to get FMA (Brotherhood) up to 20% in an hour.

    But you never had any to begin with.
    And this is why you prioritise your files.

    "Dude just read the manga. It's like, over 9000% better."

    But that's WAY longer than I'm willing to spend reading any manga that I haven't already caught up on.
