    I have a question that may have been answered much earlier but I missed it. What was the first anime series/movie to introduce the giant robot mecha concept? Andy

    I am as giddy as a school girl. I just received my Star Blazers Comet Empire Box Set. I can't wait to revisit this as it is sure to bring back some great memories of childhood. Andy

    I finshed watching Bastard last week and I have to say that I REALLY enjoyed it. For a short (6 episode) series, it was quite fun. Anyone who enjoys fantasy and wants a bit better animation that ROLW, I would recommend giving this short series a look. Andy

    Todd, You may want to try this site Link Removed It allows you to rate every anime you have seen and then the site will use those ratings and calculate what anime you may enjoyed based on other peoples ratings. It is a pretty cool site. This site is a two layer split neural network. Andy

    Does anyone know if they will be putting out a box set for the ten disc set of Mobile Suit Gundam like was done for Gundam Wing? I am hoping it does because the price would likely make me go with the 10 disc set vs the three movies to get started in this world. Andy

    One series that I am currently watching that people rarely mention is Bastard! This is a ultra short series (only 6 episodes), but I have really enjoyed it so far. I have not had luck in finding good fantasy based stories besides Record of Lodoss War so I am very happy I gave Bastard! a...

    I just watched the first two episodes of Escaflowne and I LOVED it. I am watching it subbed because so many people mentioned that the dub was crap. I went back and listened to the dub on the first two episodes and I did not find it that bad, in fact it was almost identical to the sub, in...

    damn I am a rotten typist :) Thanx to Kong for noticing that the B is next to the N on the key board :) But back to my question, if my wife was bored by Lain but liked NGE and loved Bebop, would she be more likely to enjoy Blue Seed, or Escaflowne? Thanx! Andy

    Damn, my wife just bailed on me for Lain...She gave up after episode 6 saying it was just too slow for her. I have to admit that I feel the same way but I am going to see it through just to see if any of it will make sense in the end to me. She liked BGE (except for the ending), and she...

    OK, I have just finished the 5th episode of Lain and wow, is this show out there. I need to give it some more time but I think it is going to be a bit to slow and artsy for me. Andy

    I have the Star Blazers Quest for Iscandar Box Set. The video and sound are average (although the video is probably as good as one is going to find anywhere without it being remastered). The show as a whole held up much better than I expected now that I am an adult and I will be getting...

    Shannon, Yes, the CB session DVD's are the exact same DVD's that make up the box set. And do not worry about spending more on the individual DVD's as compared to the box set, because for all intents and purposes the box set has sold out and you can only get it on EBAY for a fairly hefty...

    A bunch of people have recommended the Kenshin OVA. Would I need to see any other Kenshin product (like the TV series), to enjoy the OVA? Andy
