We sure did! You a fan?



I'm aware of the genre. (AD Police, Dirty Pair, Fists of the North Star, Ghost in the Shell etc).

I've seen a few titles. (Akira, BubbleGum Crisis/Crash, Cowboy Bebop, GunSmith Cats etc) Although I haven't really seen enough of it. Have to do something about that methinks.

The storytelling is excellent and the animation is stunning though.

Are there any titles that you could suggest?

you already seen 3 of the titles i would suggest (BB crisis, cowboy bebop, Gunsmith Cats)

i would also suggest, 08th MS Team , Trigun, Outlaw Star, Love Hina is good for storytelling and humor even if its ment for girls... ummm what else... i like 12 kingdoms, Rurouni Kenshin is a good show just long ( i havn't seen all of it , its like 5 seasons) theres a couple others but i can't remember.

also what anime is 'etc' is it a good one?

I dated a guy once that was really into anime and he made me a tape to watch and I watched it and now I don't like anime.

Cowboy bebop bothered me, except that one episode where they eat the mushrooms (funny!) and outlaw star wasn't bad. But the rest-I just don't get the draw.

My definite favorite anime (which I have mentioned on other threads) is Inuyasha. It's got a great storyline, is very funny, etc, etc. Methinks I must now go on an anime buying spree (as soon as I have extra money to waste on shiny things.) Anyway, be sure to check Inuyasha out -- you won't be disappointed, especially once it gets into the second season.

Hmm...what would you have?

I couldnt fester a guess! Snowbubble??

And you're not far wrong with my password I better go change it.

Not that anyone knows the email address I used to register!

But on most sites...my password is the same thing. But it's different on this one.

Oh, and an MOT is a yearly car/engine check thing that you need to have done to get your car tax. Or something.

I don't know cars.

CMS- I'll explain why anime "draws" me. In my mind, it's a lot like Firefly. It's visually stunning (in a different fashion); it's got elements of fantasy (which is similar to sci-fi); there's lots of humor; there's well-written, episodic story lines; there's touches of romance (which a girl can always appreciate :)); and there's a very real sense of family, that these people care about each other. Whew. Well I've made my case for another of my favorite shows.

lol! Not even close Matty!

Sorry if I guessed too close to home. We wouldn't want your passwords getting into the hands of someone evil. Like Rel.

But see what I mean? How could I need to change my lj password if no one can even get anywhere close to guessing what it is? You people KNOW me. (Ish)

Oh, I read the troll thread you posted earlier. It made me mad. Not the whole death of Wash debate, but because first they were flaming you and I was all "Nobody talks to my Matty that way!!!" and then they attacked Rel and I was like, "OH NO THEY DIDN'T" and THEN they started going after Sean and I was like "Do I have to kill them now? They may just need to die." But you men can all handle yourselves. Plus, my favourite SuperHero, SerenityPunk (dum dum da DUM) stopped in and saved the day anyway.

Still, don't like people who mess with my men.


Queenie: Those are all very good reasons to like anime. I just don't and that's that. But more power to ya!

Yeah, I can respect that. What I can't understand is why people don't like Firefly?? (extremely puzzled look on face) It's so perfect.
Anyways, here's a good random question: Can River actually kill people with her brain or did she just say that to scare the go se out of Jayne?

Damn dust gettin my eye!

*Hugs!*

I had to stop myself just replying with () But I thought seeing as I was being referred to as "young" and a "new punk kid" I should take the mature path.

Oh, and no, don't worry...the password thing, really. I made that password nearly a year ago now, and back then I didn't think my love of a certain lady would become sooo...public. lol.

Oh how wrong I was...

*hugs* back to PR.

And I'm glad you didn't resort to rude hand gestures. I do not condone rude hand gestures!

Queenie: Me either. They must all be mad or brainwashed by the years of drivel they've been watching.
