Yeah she would be fine in real life, but have you seen any lewd hentai pictures. They gave her jugs comparable to a Galaxy EACH. Yeah she had big tits, but really the Hentai pics should have had tits like that and they woulda looked a whole lot better.

Damn, I sound like a Hentai obsessed pervert! I've only seen 2 pictures! Honest, I'm just a big fan of FF7, and fan art

Oh, you mean "Pierrot Le Fou." That was actually an interesting episode that didnt really add anything to the series overall. Nice overall theme and mood in relation to the genetic super-killer handling of the antagonist.

-shudder- i hated that episode. Thats the only episode i dont like to watch. im personally too cheap to get the box set, but i've downloaded all the episodes, and put them onto cds. I plan on buying the movie tho.

*sigh* i ahve some AWSOME anime pics, but im too lazy to upload any of them, so go to www.animewallpapers.com and look up ur favorite shows for yourself. I downloaded half the website's wallpapers, and have them running in a slide show as my screen saver.

CB is awesome, but me and like 12 friends one day last summer got every EVA episode and locked ourselves in a room and watched the entire series straight thru...non stop.. It took hours but during the process I blacked out and saw God...I think...

Beyond that the final two episodes of EVA aren't even anime anymore,,,its like some crazy cosmoligcal shit, the writing is absurd and blows my mind everytime.

sry for double post but read onis post first,
thats is funny, you took 13 hours out of your day and watched Eva not that i blame you its my favorite anime, but all in on go must have been one disturbing day, also the last two eps. are just space filler, Hideki Anno ran out of money and made that, that is why he made The End of Evangelion, which also has the best fight scene in almost any anime in it, cool movie, i like it when asuka cracks one of the mass production over her head like a shrimp and the blood drains down over the eva, hehe

haha just read bismarks sig, it funny cuz marduk is in so many anime its not funny, eva unit 02 is based off of discriptions of marduk

Lupin's cool. It has kind of an Ocean's 11 vibe to it. Also it seems it is kinda new as in one episode he talked about "The spy movie with Halle Berry" aka Die Another Day....Just my thoughts

shinken
2003-07-11, 01:56 AM
ah good now i can get into one of my favorite topics, ancient mythos, yes marduk was an ancient babylonian god, but christianity tended to take gods from other cultures and turn them into demons, neon genisis evangelion has many religious themes and one of them is that the first 4 evas are based on the 4 barons of hell, kind of like seraphim in reverse, (hehe im not even religious) the first has only one huge eye, the second has a large horn on the center of its forhead and ferocious teeth, the third is the above decribed marduk the forth was a black beast with arms that could streach forever, any one that has seen eva will know this is acurate, also i didnt make this up, i copied it almost word for word off a geocities website that i do not care to google and find the url, u can check if you want but i doubt you will being an anime hater

It's people like you, sir, that give the internet a bad name. Anyone on the internet with that kind of attitude automatically qualifies them as a complete and total asshole.

You anti-anime people (who most likely have NEVER seen anything other than an episode of DBZ or 2 on cartoon network) need to either go watch some real anime (as in nothing from cartoon network, as it has all been dulled by american censorship) and then make your decision, or just don't talk. You have a right to your own opinion, but when you have no evidence to back that opinion, it does nothing but make you look like a troll with nothing better to do but get on the forums and act like you know something you don't. Once you've watched some good anime and still don't like it, then people might respect your opinion. Until then, go **** yourselves.

thank you for saying the words i was too lazy to type,
also not quite all cartoon network stuff is bad, most of the stuff on the adult swim isnt cut, at least, not much tho id rather see the stuff on DVD but i dont have the $$ so stuck w/ what i already have and cartoon network until we get the Anime Network out here

MrVulcan
2003-07-11, 08:37 PM
shinken, ya my list is much longer, but those were just the 1st few on it ;)

Also, I rather enjoy Anime since they are real stories, that continue from esp to esp, insted of american flash hype stuff that has no real long term story line, more like random events that may or may not ever come up again. The majority of anime is created from good selling book series (Magna) and thus they actually have a real story line and have real debth to those stories such as good books do.
Dont get me wrong, some of the american flash hype stuff is good, but it just lacks the debth that so many anime stories can bring.

Just my (3/1415^9265)*35 cents anyway ;)

Why not watch real people...hmm...

Well quite frankly, because I live in a world with over 6 billion people, and watching them is pretty damn boring.

You can't compare real comedy to anime comedy because anime isn't restricted to the laws of physics. You have to aquire a sense of humor for anime though, I'll admit that.

But I am quite satisfied when watching anime and laughing my ass off at a part where any non-anime fan would just stare stupidly. :p

Maybe us anime fans just dare to be different from boring old reality.

I got all the Steel Angel Kurumi DVDs. I'm suprised it's rated 17+ O_o There's only a little bit of upper body female nudity. The rest of the story is really cute..kinda weird that it has a higher age rating than hellsing :x

I've got all of the chobits episodes downloaded (I was going to buy the DVDs but I found myself downloading every episode and finished overnight so I figured...) I'm usually not one to just download anime that I severely like, which chobits qualifies as. I usually will download the first 2-3 episodes, watch them, and decide from there if it's worth buying, or just downloading.

I like DVDs though because they make for some great AMV source footage which I do as a bored on a nothing to do night. Though none of my work is spectacular, it's more aimed at something to do, rather than to be a perfect piece of art. I might upload some of my AMVs to my comcast space but I dunno how much space I have total (let alone the bandwidth that would be used) so if anyone wants to see em, just say so and I'll provide a link.

On a side note...lots of these vids aren't finished except for an angelic layer one that really isn't very good. Other than that I have an unfinished DNA^2 vid, and a love hina vid that I was going to submit to AX2003 but didn't finish in time :x

For some reason I can't get good DVD screencaps.. will play with that for a bit and post some pics later if I can get that figured out.

Personally, I think Trigun is overrated. I had a hard time getting into it, and everything about it just seemed bland and predictable. I understand the appeal, but it didn't appeal to me. Then again, I also had relatively negative feelings about Lain, and everyone else seems to love that, so maybe it's just me :P

I need to finish watching Kenshin. I saw a few episodes at the last LAN I was at, and it seemed fairly interesting.

RahXephon, Eva, and Bebop are probably the three series I enjoyed the most - Knocking on Heaven's Door was a bit weak, IMHO, but the end of that series itself is so beautiful that it made Bebop my favorite (for the moment, at least.)

shinken
2003-07-13, 03:28 AM
if youve only seen a few eps of RK its gonna take you a while to watch all of it, and they leave out the last arc of the story in the anime, they only really finish it in the manga
P.S. how many post does it take to get to veteran, i went up and never noticed

Kaikou
2003-07-13, 03:42 AM
RahXephon is probably one of the most beautifully animated anime series I have seen so far (course I'm only on episode 8) It just has a really unique feel to it as opposed to the usual way most anime is drawn. Take a look at the sig below for some examples to see what I mean... Only the most dedicated of otakus will see a big difference though :D

I have a feeling I'm gonna love this anime though, as I already "really really like it" at episode 8 :p

And yea lets just never let this thread die, it can act as an anime forum in itself! (and eventually break the record of "the fastest dying thread" over at the dragonwolves forums which exceed 100 pages I think...we used to have one with more than 300 pages if I remember correctly O_O)

And I agree on cowboy bebop's ending. The symbolism in the last few seconds of it was very well done, even though it was so simple. I'll keep it at that so it doesn't spoil anything for you people out there who haven't seen/finished it yet.

I think it's both the very proportionally drawn characters with the intricate shading. One of the things that makes it look very realistic, IMO, is that the light source in most scenes is easily identified.

It's one series where the art outshines the characters (don't kill me for saying it, but I don't really think there was enough flesh for most of it,) and it's still very fun to follow.

NightWalker XI
2003-07-13, 04:55 AM
Yeah I am all up for an anime forum here @ PSU

Anyways RK consists of:

* Mangas (which are great and complete the true story)
* 1 OVA consisting of 4 episodes showing RK's past (a prequel)
* The series, 95 episodes long but the ending is not as it was in the manga
* Another OVA, but this OVA was done without the consent of RK's creator which means its not official which means Kenshin may not officially end this way (lets cross our figners cause the ending was good but VEEEEEEEEERY sad and incomplete IMHO)



SPOILERS ABOUT RK'S ENDING BELOW DO NOT READ ON IF YA DON'T WANNA KNOW

Ok, so he dies of leprosy right, and tis really sweet that Kaoru makes love to him so she shares his pain and eventually she probably dies too but:

His son is a fucker, he hates his dad...WTF!?
The ending does not explain why Zanza is in China, and where are all the other main characters...
Its a gay ending...Kenshin should live...the ending reaaaaly made me sad and Im still sad (just saw it a few days ago) sad ending indeed...Kenshin dies and the legendary Hitokiri Battousai is forgotten, fuck that"


END SPOILERS


So like I said......the ending of Kenshin must be remade.....and there is 15 years between the series and the ending OVA so many mroe space for story

Im just suprised that you like eva but not lain since they both have very deep storylines (and prob require you to be taking the same drugs as the author to fully grasp them :lol: )

I agree that Trigun was a little predictable, but most stories are. I guess I just like comedy/dramas that can have some debth to their chars & story and yet make you laugh as well

It's all just our opinions, of course. :)

Eva was complex but very theme-related - you didn't need to follow every detail to be entirely swept up in the introspection towards the end.

An anime forum would be quite nice.

Indeed, apparently the dude says hes not gonna make any more Kenshin stuff...but SONY still have the rights to Kenshin, then again they made the unofficial ending so I can't expect anything of the same class as the original OVA and series from them story wise.

I really think Kenshin rules...I want more episodes, I wish there was a huge petition asking for more :(

comedy and action should both be used when necessary, but if theres a good story, theres usually a great anime.

Azumanga Daioh is a really funny series. There's really no story behind it all, it's geared only towards making you laugh. It's about some junior high/high school girls and their every day school life with a perverted principal, legally insane teachers, etc...

Seeing some cartoon guy, with STUPIDLY big eyes, shooting lasers out of his fingers will NEVER be as impressive or awe-inspiring as effects seen in The Matrix, T2 (and thats like 12 years old!) and just any martial arts film with wires. Real Actors CAN defy the laws of physics (Wires and CG) and look a million times better than Anime. Even 'The Killer' which has zero special effects, and no defying of physics, is impressive. If you can show me an Anime cooler than Chow-Yun Fat in a suit with 2 berettas, obviously shooting shit up, then I'll have a look!

I do have some of that!
It is very very funny, just wish I could find more (dont have much/dont know how much there is out there)

another one along that line is 'Child's Toy', very funny, but no real point to anything.

Onizuka, I find that there are some great animes out there that can do both (Eva, Chobits, etc), and that is the buity of some of the anime, the stories are soo good that they have all of the goodness in them at once.

Indeed it would :D

BTW I just finished RahXephon, and never have I seen such a touching series. Especially episode 19 where something very ironic and sad happens.

On the lighter side though, I'm was watching some Azumanga Daioh, while I was downloading the last episode to RahXephon. It's been awhile since I have laughed so hard. Azumanga Daioh is the perfect example of what I meant earlier by requiring an anime humor to laugh at the stuff in that. It's up to par with Excel Saga in humor.

Aluminum Studios did just a little review on it but there's a pretty funny video clip you can download and see what I mean about the ludicrously warped sense of humor this series requires you to have to enjoy it :P

Go Here (http://www.aluminumstudios.com/commentary.html) and hit ctrl+f, type in azumanga in your find box and start searching until you come across the little section he has (you'll notice because it has a picture by it along with 2 links, one a picture, the other this clip I mentioned...

If you at least snicker at this video, I highly suggest you look into this series because you will most likely be falling out of your chair laughing.

*edit*

Thought I'd add this little quote from Aluminum Studios as well...

Another thought ... I love Cowboy Bebop, but change the channel whenever it comes on Cartoon Network like right now. I don't care how carefully a dub is done dubs are BAD because you loose the original performance and the original directors intent.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ weird

anyways, i downloaded that lil clip and :rofl: that was just weird.

:lol:

edit becuase kaikou edited: its a shame i cant read quickly at all..... i mean i read very very slow. dubbing is as long as the voices arent annoying and there is still emotion there.

but sadly most dubbing is done poorly..... i wish i knew japanese :(

I've pretty much learned enough japanese up to a point where I could carry out a simple conversation through anime alone, never have I taken a japanese class :D

Course I plan to either this fall or spring next year...

i hate dubs to, but better than sub 4 me, not cause i read slow(450 WPM which is 2.5 times as fast as the averege adult WPM of 200) but cause you have to take ur eyes off the action to know what ppl are saying, so until i learn japanese (which is going to be in about a year cause i start in the fall) stuck w/ dub, some companies do well w/ dubs, ADV is usually good, they did a great job w/ Evangelion and amanda winn lee is a very good translation director, just listen to the audio commentary on the death and rebirth, at the begining w/ 5-6 conversations going on in the background all at once, also their audio commentary are funny instead of just info about the movie and how hard this was or how boring this was, they crack jokes all the way through

edit, almost the same as kaikou, cept i need to learn syntax then i could speak basic japanese, probably almost as much as i know of spanish, and i took that as a class (no japanese:mad: :furious: :flamemad:

I need dubs, because for some reason I just can't read emotion from a Japanese accent. Don't ask me why, I don't know. But I just don't get the full effect without dubbing.

I always watch with subs, much better abnd you get the real feeling, the maker of the anime picked those voices for a reason....

I am also starting to understand some Japanese now and you pick up on easy things like, hello, goodbye, brother, sister, etc

Its cool...I don't have the time for lessons right now tho but I am interested.

:brow: Anime forums with me as mod, indeed, that would be very Logical ;)

Anyway, I know a very limited amount of japanese, several common words, etc but nothing close to enough to hold on a conversation. I do plan on learning it withen the next year or so though, then German, then touch up on my spanish... yep, that would work. *2 of the best words ever: B4k4 *megatokyo version of Baka* and Nani *just sounds cool :p *)

dub-sub... well I know that there are a few very well done dubs (I actually like the Steel Angel dub better than the Sub) but for the most part, I must agree that the greater majority of dubs are not anywhere as good as the subs.

Sicne little I have loved samurai swords and the whole story about samurai and Japan and all that, one of the reason Rk is my fav anime...aniway I am now trying to get my hands on a REAL Sakabatou...I know they exist except they are like...around 1k USD...I can't afford that....doh!

Anyways I also been thinking of takin up some sort of sword technique...problem is I am not aware of anything in my area....:(

Here is a pic of the Sakabatou I saw...

Bah if they only go for 1k they are not real. If you want a REAL katana you have to buy them from collectors, I'm not talking about the cheap ass katanas that are forged like old sword I'm talking the ones made in layers.

Last one ever made was sold for 500k U.S

But I guess normal katana's (not ancient ones) are fine... just not as strong as the old ones :D

I need to find a zanbatou :lol:

Well... The first one I don't suggest you buy... my instincts say it's not right...

the second one... and the third look great but you might want some more info.

Like the width of the blade. The thickness. And how sharp it is... cause if I remember your new to swords in general (dunno if your gona fight with them) and you dont wanna start with a sharp katana... Dull to lightly sharp (enough to cut some things but not your skin unless you are forcing it)

Onizuka

2003-07-14, 05:29 PM
i didnt know that they made sakabatous, but 1000 bux is cheap compared to a real shinken katana from a master forge, the old ones used by real samurai can go for between 1 and 50 million :eek: USD, they are pretty much only in museums

oh and some one change the We want Beta smiley into a We Want Anime Forum one:D

edit: bogubag.com sells tamashi giri ready swords, also iaitou, the dull ones for iaido or battou-jutsu so you dont cut off ur thumb if you screw up the draw, but you can still give urself a deap cut or impale ur hand if u try to do it to fast for ur 5[<177 level

There is an "ara" that might be what you mean which coincides with what shinken said by meaning "huh?"

shinken
2003-07-14, 05:45 PM
in RK kenshin says oro every 5 min or so, unless hes fighting, also not exactly like huh but dosnt have an exact translation

WE WANT ANIME FORUM :dance: WTH is this for?

Kaikou
2003-07-14, 06:03 PM
Probably his unique way of saying ara then, heh.

Japanese is confusing because words that sound so similar can mean completely different things, like kawaii and kowai (meaning the exact opposite of each other, cute and scary)

Also the whole slur thing that comes naturally with any language can be confusing (like how we say I dunno instead of I don't know) Sometimes you'll hear them say something like kawaii ja ne which kinda means "cute isn't it" when they really said kawaii ja nai which means "not cute" yet the both sound the exact same and the only way to know what they say is by the context. :confused: :O_O: :huh:

Whoah I sounded smart there..but be not fooled, ore wa baka desu :D

shin = death

anyway on the topic of anime pictures and anime in general..

I picked up Steel Angel Kurumi at AX2003 by a friends suggestion as a cute anime to watch. So I said "cool I'll check it out". So I go in the exhibit hall (you have no idea how many times I said "exhibition hall" by mistake while I was there...curse my perverted mind...) and head over to the DVD section where I find the whole set of Steel Angel Kurumi (for a great price I might add). So I pick one up, read the back, and the age reccomendation catches my eye...

17+

This is an anime with hearts on the cover of the DVD alone, why was it rated 17+? The picture below shows a scene in the first 15 seconds of the first episode... Modified of course to keep it legal for these forums :D

http://mywebpages.comcast.net/kaikou/ohmy.jpg

Nudity isn't a BIG DEAL in anime, and there really wasn't enough in the series to make it 17+ O_o wonder why it is rated so high...

*edit* cuz I want to and it's 2 in the morning

Kurumi sure is hot though isn't she?

Anywho Legato is cool, that episode where he kills all those punks in the bar is cool, and then Vash beats that girl and her shirt pops lol...funny

I don't like Legato's outfit tho, that bulge on his shoulder is weird...anyway how many episodes does Trigun have? I seen 20 in a row (thunder and heavy rain outside..l.was planning on a BBQ with friends but weather kicks in when I finnaly plan on going out...sheesh)

Anyway, yeah theres 26 episodes, I seen 20 of them, what a shame I was hoping there were 50 or something...oh well...

Anywho, thanks for reminding me of Macross Zero, I seen Macross Plus and been looking to download Zero but haven't done so, but I am now...my PC has about 1Gig of anime now that I calculated that buying even HK DVD's would make a serious hole in my pocket...:o

Whats that Onegai Teacher...looks Hentai'ish...I don't find Hentai good..unless its omical hentai like that series...whats it called...Golden Boy, thats teh funny

WickedDeus
2003-07-15, 04:35 PM
I got about 30GB of anime on my computer. I have about 120+ GB on cds.

Onegai Teacher is great, its ecchi....not hentai.

Onizuka
2003-07-15, 04:44 PM
nightwalker have you seen every GTO?

WickedDeus
2003-07-15, 04:46 PM
You have the whole RK series? From 1 to 90 something and the X Ova too? Wanna trade? I can setup an fserver in my clan's irc server. I have all of the Gundam Seed up to current and the same with Naruto(if you haven't seen Naruto, you need to).


Edit: I need GTO too.....hmm...wanna start a anime irc channel on a private irc server?

No :ugh:

I have only seen 1 episode, the first...bleh

And yeah, I have episode 1 - 95 of RK series and 1 - 4 of the first OVA, I don't have the 2 endign OVA episodes because they were not written or made with the consent of the RK creator so I regard them as unofficial as do many other RK fans....

I have Berserk also.

Onizuka

whether anyone cares or not, i consider this a dissappointment. Graphic novel company viz has the rights to the kenshin manga. this following article tells:

"Viz Gets Rights To Rurouni Kenshin Manga
Inclusion In Shonen Jump Likely



May 01, 2003
Viz, LLC has acquired the rights to Nobuhiro Watsuki's samurai manga series Rurouni Kenshin. The Cartoon Network has been running the anime version of Rurouni Kenshin during its daily Toonami block, where despite considerable censorship of the bloody samurai saga, it has been attracting a lot of attention (see "Cartoon Network Ratings Up"). The anime series is based on Watsuki's manga, which started running in the Japanese Shonen Jump in 1994. With its premier spot on TV, Rurouni Kenshin has tremendous potential. Media Blasters, which produces the English language version of the anime series, has reported a definite bump in sales thanks to the Cartoon Network exposure.


So far Viz is playing it cool as to whether or not the Rurouni Kenshin manga will appear in the American version of Shonen Jump or not, but given the fact that Shueisha, the manga's Japanese publisher, is Viz's partner in the American Shonen Jump, it appears likely that Ruroni Kenshin will join the Jump lineup in the near future, especially considering so many other Jump titles have ties to anime series on American TV (see "Shonen Jump Line Tied To Cartoon Network")."

but i find the dissappointment in that tokyopop isnt going to do it. reading right to left is easier for me

lol im sure nightwalker new this but the article can be found here (http://www.icv2.com/articles/news/2687.html)

onegai teacher is a good anime (I've got both the DVDs that are out so far and all the manga)

It's a pretty cool series in general but I think the ending was somewhat weak (the manga version anyway) it might be a bit better animated...

And that's pocky she's sucking on, not a pen :p

Pocky is a little wheat bread stick (or something like that) dipped in chocolate. Very popular japanese snack food.

*concurs with Kaikou and WickedDeus* onegai teacher is nice. sort of a comedy/drama thing. seems like you're in an action oriented anime stint right now, NightWalker, so it might not interest you...

shinken
2003-07-15, 10:54 PM
ill watch just about anything i can get my hands on cept stuff like maho bishojo senshi pokemon dbz ect.

NightWalker XI

Action mixed with comedy (like Trigun and RK) is what I usually like, but I also like anime thats jsut comedy with drama and stuff like that...

Ok, here is my "to doiwnload list" at the moment:

Berserk - need to know how many episodes it has
GTO - (read above)
Onegai Teacher - (read Berserk Descrition thingie)
Gundam Seed - (read Berserk Descrition thingie)
Macross Zero - (read Berserk Descrition thingie)

I will do that in order...at the moment I am jsut gettign the last 3 episodes fo Trigun (sniff Wolfwood dies....damnit) and a few mroe RK ones that I noticed I was missing....

I am also thinking of gettign Daiguard, I saw that on a Portuguese anime channel, was pretty cool

2003-07-16, 07:47 AM
Inuyasha seems interesting, looks Ranma like....

WickedDeus
2003-07-16, 07:55 AM
If I remember Berserk has 24.
Its damn bloody and dark.

Dunno about GTO.

Onegai Teacher has 12 I think,

Gundam Seed has 38-39 so far.....their still coming out.

Macross Zero has 2 out so far out of a total of 5. Its a special OVA series and it will be a few months before 3 gets here from what I understand.

Remember to get Naturo and Chobits.

Also do you guys use irc? Or only stuff like bittorrent and dc?

If so I will be setting up an fserve on a Clan-Forsaken irc server. PM me if your interested in trading.

I never used IRC for downloads before, only talking so I dunno how it works, I use KaZaA and Bit Torrent mostly...

NightWalker XI
2003-07-16, 08:55 AM
Oh BTW I am downloading all 13 Onegai Teacher episodes at once, I should have them all by tomorrow :D

Can only find one episode of Macross Zero so I will leave that for now

I think I will get GTO next

WickedDeus
2003-07-16, 09:28 AM
Well if you use it to chat is not much harder to file share. Its all in DCC options, you just got to open it up.

Edit: Which bittorrent search are you using to find anime?

NightWalker XI
2003-07-16, 09:33 AM
I dunno now, I unistalled bit torrent a month or so ago and now recently reinstalled it but forgot the good sites to d/l anime from, been looking around but ain't finding any lol

WickedDeus
2003-07-16, 09:42 AM
Where are you downloading all the Onegai Teachers from?

Anyway, when I get home from work I'll post the irc server where my channel will be on.

Pocky?! In France they are called Mikado, and they're bloody addictive. I haven't seen them in England :(

OK, my interest is building in this thing you call... 'anime', anything involving dual pistols, cool diving around and generally big explosions?! Then I'll be sold!

Kaikou
2003-07-16, 02:44 PM
good luck with GTO...lol

As I recall it has close to or more than 50 episodes. Actually yeah it's probably 52, 2 seasons 26 episodes each.

Sp3ctre, you want some hardcore action, Berserk. Actually I'm not exactly sure what kind of story Berserk has to it, however it's pretty gorey so I'd imagine there's lots of action...

I will state this 1 more time, DO NOT use Kaza anymore (after the end of the month anyway), the media and movie groups got congress to aprove the use of a program that scans user's files and sue them for all copyrighted material they find there. They will do 10,000 suits in the 1st couple of weeks, and continue to do more.

Now this program does not work with *some of the other media getting programs yet.

Just your friendly warning ;)

*Dont think I can list the program that still cant be tracked w/o getting psu in trouble, so I wont

**no, this isnt just another scare, a Vulcan wouldnt do that to you guys. I saw the c-span debate over this issue, they plan to start the 1st round of suits the 1st week of Aug.

Yeah, I'm on some sort of anime site (Anime Illusions or something) and it has a big Action rating for Berserk, Ghost In A Shell (I've heard of that somewhere) Hellsing (Set in London, my hometown :D) and Jin-Roh (which sounds particularly cool)

These any good?

EDIT: What the hell is ecchi?

google cowboy bebop and trigun, for the generaly big explosions i will quote tapanime.com(they have an anime humor section w/ "the laws of anime")

#11 - Law of Inherent Combustibility
Everything explodes. Everything.

First Corollary -
Anything that explodes bulges first.

Second Corollary -
Large cities are the most explosive substances known to human science. Tokyo in particular seems to be the most unstable of these cities, sometimes referred to as "The Matchstick City".
