Wow...kinda slow today. I finished up Mahoromatic - Something More Beautiful this morning, and I stand by my previous assessment. I also rewatched volume 1 of Excel Saga.

I watched a raw of Ghost in the Shell 2: Innocence tonight. The animation is absolutely AMAZING in this film with some really nice CGI touches (especially in the opening credits). Now, if only I could understand what they were saying, I'd be In Like Flint

The new film didn't put me to sleep either! ^___^;;

You know John,
I hadn't read your previous assesment until now but I totally agree with everything you said, now having watched it. Hehe...I saw your recomendation at the bottem...apparently, I listened.
I was a little confused by the ending there also but it makes ya wonder what the special is going to be like doesn't it?

Oh! I had a Rightsuf question!

I am thinking of doing one of those $100 preorders... (I already ordered my Gotainme membership )

Now, if I do order $99+ economy shipping is free... will it still be free for each item, even if they all come out at different times?

I wanna preorder GiTS:SAC-SE, Last Exile 4 and 5, and Wolfs Rain...

Yeah yeah. I just hope they're not limited editions or anything
What? It's not like I plan to get it or anything. I don't want the SE set because the only differences are that it has the DTS version and the soundtrack on CD. I really don't care about either one of them, as the DD would do just fine for me and I don't like the vast majority of anime soundtracks. I don't see the reason why I should pay $20 to $25 extra for two little things that I don't really care about.

But there is no 5.1!!!
Oh well. I don't really care, because it's gonna be free on Cartoon Network! Plus I also have a pretty damn good receiver with DPLII. (Oh wait, here comes everyone to tell me "But it isn't subtitled, baka! ^__________________^")

Quote:
And the great opening song will prolly be cut
Dude. 99.9% of the music in anime sucks. So this one will very likely fall into that 99.9%. I know that it can't be as good as that new Drowning Pool song, Step Up (Which is way too catchy!). By the way, when I watch a series on DVD, I listen to the opening and ending songs only once and skip them every time after that.
