Gay is a word (a noun or an adjective) that primarily refers to a homosexual person.
The term was originally used to refer to feelings of being "carefree", "happy", or "bright and showy"; it had also come to acquire some connotations of "immorality" as early as 1637.[1] The term's use as a reference to homosexuality may date as early as the late 19th century, but its use gradually increased in the 20th century.[1] In modern English, gay has come to be used as an adjective, and occasionally as a noun, referring to the people, especially to men, and the practices and cultures associated with homosexuality. By the end of the 20th century, the word gay was recommended by major style guides to describe people attracted to members of the same sex.[2][3] At about the same time, a new, pejorative use became prevalent in some parts of the world. In the Anglosphere, this connotation, among younger speakers, has a derisive meaning equivalent to rubbish or stupid (as in "That's so gay."). In this use, the word does not mean "homosexual", so it can be used, for example, to refer to an inanimate object or abstract concept of which one disapproves. This usage can also refer to weakness or unmanliness. When used in this way, the extent to which it still retains connotations of homosexuality has been debated and harshly criticized.

Just picked up "Ano Hi Mita Hana No Namae O Bokutachi Wa Mada Shiranai" or "We still don't know the name of the flower we saw that day."

I can't stop watching it.. It's a slice of life tear jerker(i've probably at least welled up every episode i've watched so far) but it leaves you with a happy feeling.. great Anime!

If you haven't seen Sword of the Stranger and you like samurai ronin stuffz you should watch it, it has the best sword fights I've ever seen.

List in no particular order:
Afro Samurai
Sword of the Stranger
Ninja Scroll
Baccano! (Awesome 1930s mobster anime)
Appleseed was pretty cool, so was Spriggan (pretty much the same shit).
I liked Berserk, but the ending was a major disappointment.

In my opinion, if you play Mount & Blade and like anime, you should watch Berserk. It is pretty much an anime version of M&B with some added drama.

Hip hop swordfighting from the same people that brought you cowboy bebop. It doesn't get much better than that.
