Jason: The OAVs - Battle Athletes - is a Hoot!!! And Akari is a LOT less... whiny. ;) No Akari House here... :D It's all good and worth it. You'll see what I mean when you see it. Cute fun series. My main problem is that Pioneer didn't separate out hte episodes, removed the OP and the ED and...

Due to the crashing of my hdd, I can't put a list up here. That said, my collection link will tell you folks what I own. :)

Heh Chris - I guess I ain't the only fan of older stuff here ;) I got the tv series on dvd at otakon for $220. Can't remember if it was 10 or 12/4 dvds, but it was a fun series. Got the oav box set and the movies too so but haven't seen it. I can't wait to get more of Maisson Ikkoku - I...

James_Kiang - I tell ya, it's worth the $$ - if you read my above post about two pages back, I said that the last three eps have seared themselves as some of the best anime I have seen. And I have seen a good amt of anime.

Chris, it is the one of the two tv series. DASH is already out on dvd, and Nuku Nuku TV is what's left. Personally, like Tenchi Muyo! (the first 6 eps of OAVs "Ryo Ohki!"), I found the first set of Nuku Nuku OAVs are the best (the first 3 eps).

I said to RobLutter while on aim a few days ago that fans of anime enable others to be fans of anime (*i.e., otaku enable other otaku.*) I am glad that we are enabling others with our silliness ;) *high fives Alanna for helping to enable others into our hobby* Hey Dome. I am gonna be...

Did someone call? ;) Hmm Well, I called DDD and they said orders shipped on 2/19 were messed up due to "holiday shipping" schedules. Whatever~ :frowning:

;) That's a good attitude to have, Chris - it's jsut that I am a completist by nature, and well - have a need to complete what I own.

Alanna: Fruits Basket blew my *male* mind. It was SO good. Being the moron that marathons stuff, I got all of it at otakon 2003 (my first con~) and watched it later. Loved it. The last three eps were some of the best anime I've seen, and still remain so. I never watched any Sailor Moon...

Heh - completism bites your buttocks when you collect long, multi season series. ;) I have yet to watch Ai Yori Aoshi, but I do have to get #4 and #5 at some point. I also have to get Chobits, R.O.D, and a crapola of other stuff. Gotta call up DDD to tell 'em my copy of Scryed #4 has yet to...

For those of you who might need fuzz therapy ;) http://www.ratemykitten.com/ratemy/k...41592653589792 Hmm on the matter of taxes, thanks to me foolishly thinking I am a dependent on my W-4, I get money back every year. Gotta change that... In terms of new things, mostly it's not much...

heh Down at the end of the block on 56th st approaching Sixth Ave, there is a ramen joint called Menkui Tei. Great place for Gyoza and Ramen. IMHO, my favorite ramen place since it's close to my work. Hey Dome - it's up to 17 vols. And it's a hoot~ ;)

ramen? dry? mmm - good snack ;)

hmm ... muffins.... yummmy... damned carbs... :) Well, since I am usually pressed for time, I blitz through a series at once. I would agree that the best way to see a series - if you have the time - is to see it more like the manner in which the show aired, *weekly, or twice a week*, but...

heh JohnAD: Well, I saw the anime before the manga, and feel that the first two discs of His and Her Circumstances do reflect the manga very very well. The feel is similar. Those two discs alone, IMHO, make the series work. If I was rich, I'd get all the R1 anime I could with a modest...

Hmmm... Some of you people must be bored silly to have time to pick on others :frowning: I have only one thing to say - watch more anime~!!* :D *if you don't have any anime, you can catch Rurouni Kenshin on TV on Sat eve at 11pm EST. That said, I just got my Maisson Ikkoku Movie...

/de-lurks Well, I choose not to import often mostly due to the HUGE selection we have recently received as consumers in Region 1. Heck, I have sorta forsaken movies for anime. ;) Now what I do wanna say is that you DO get what you pay for. By getting import games/dvds, you will end up with...

*in a serious tone of voice* Now the Jiggle counter was - in all honesty- Quite Silly. :D */end serious tone of voice* Well, it wasn't that busy a weekend - did finish off Chance Pop Session - Great blend of anime and Jpop with drama. Only 3 discs. But pretty fun. Also finished...

Stacey and Dave: Congrats! *prepares the rice for throwing; hopes for a chance to hold Stacey's garter - then realizes he's too far away to attend* *sniffles* *is insanely Jealous of Dave for having Stacey* *calms down* wahhhh...

Hmm Good to hear, John... Hopefully, I'll finish at least Season 6 this weekend. But then again, I may end up trying to finish Utena, Vandread, or numerous other series. BTW, How did you enjoy Fushigi Yugi Oni OVA and Eikoden? (damn it - I never bothered to watch eikoden - got caught up in...

heh ok mostly, I've been trying to muddle through Star Trek TNG. Finished Season 4-5, and have 6~7 left Also have caught up on ANgelic Layer - watched #2-4 Fun stuff. I also now have all of Vandread Second Stage so I'll start that when I feel like it.

/de-lurks Yo Andy-Bu The Movie is sort of a shoot off/spin off post Kyoto. Trust and Betrayal DC is the matted Widescreen version of OVA 1 Trust, and OVA 2: Betrayal with a few seconds of extra (inconsequential) footage. If I were you, I'd skip the Trust and Betrayal DC since it cuts out...

heh - JohnAD: The Omake at the end of the first six (?)ONI OVA eps will definately leave a smile on your face. It sure made me happy. :D Well, made a tally of manga I am currently collecting - it's over 20+ series. Added Fruits Basket and Get Backers Manga - couldn't resist. The sad...

Hey JohnAD: I am stilll awaiting your assessment of Rurouni Kenshin. *notes that I am a RK fan to the core*

Hmm - for those celebrating, Happy Lunar New Year's! Well, I managed to start and finish I My Me Strawberry Eggs on Tuesday (I ended up sleeping at 2:15am - that is Wed Morning ;)) Fun series, with a very good caste and a very good story. That, and I still am having trouble finding Rurouni...

JohnAD: YAY! Kenshin is great fun - esp for season 2, Kyoto. Fun characters, short quick fights, and compelling story. Kyoto is as addictive as CRACK, IMNSHO. But as I remind others, Kenshin and the character introductions in DVD 1-3 and 6 are good to see, and get you attached to the...

Well, I had a busy anime weekend. Finished a lot of dvds this weeekend, so let me just list what I finished. Card Captor Sakura 8-9 (I finished 1-8 during the week prior to this weekend) - A fun series that is still sorta light and WAFFY. I need to get the rest of it so that I can see how it...

Hey stacey - I have NO chobits at all, except the manga. 8 volumes. I'll probably get it though - I have a few clamp anime, and I think I will be a clamp-ho. Tenchi Muyo In Love, the first movie is a good watch - if you have viewed the OVA, then except for 1 char, you should be able to follow...

hmm - Alanna - yeah you have it worse than we do in NYC. Anyhoo, here is my lil list of manga. Sad part of it is that only 9 in the list are complete. TITLE# VOL Ai Yori Aoshi1 Bastard!!2 Chobits8 Angelic Layer5 Marmalade boy8 GTO16 Love Hina6 Maison Ikkoku14 Maison Ikkoku...

*agrees with JohnAD* Gasaraki is slow paced, but it is real enough and relevant enough to to the real world to consider - and for $30 you cant go wrong, really. Alanna - If I wasn't paying for the mortgage (parent's place became mine - financial issues :angry: ) I'd be getting a whole...
