Yeah, I noticed that whilst living there. Some sort of cultural thing, I guess. Perhaps they're all fed up with black hair.

Could be they ant to be Westernized. A lot of youngsters tend to do that.

Also, the last few episodes have all the fun stuff happens and it basically ruins the rest for you because nowhere in the rest of the story will you find anything as intetresting as the last episode.

That;s just IMO of course.

Granted, but for CB it's REALLY bad.

And that chick on Inuyasha.

I saw about half of one episode. Bizarre, and it didn't really hold my interest.

Oh, however, for the episode of CB that I saw, I did not have the sound turned on- the episode played out muted!

Perhaps there is still a chance of salvation?

I like Inuyasha! He's so badass! (and he's a wolf! arooooo!) And Kagome is a very sweet person, the kind of girl you want to spent time around.

I love that show, it's got a great mix of humor, emotion, and kickass sword fighting!

Yeah, it has one of the best ending themes I've ever heard in anime.

Really? The episode I saw was just him swinging his sword over his head and had as much actual fighting as Mr. Roger's Neighborhood.

Well, there's not a huge battle in EVERY episode, but they're in a LOT, and they're awesome to watch!

Then I'll go rob someone and steal his CB collection then.
*Goes looking for someone to rob, then realizes he's supposed to watch Saiyuki and watches that instead*

What do you feel of the diffrences made in Trigun between the Anime and the Manga? How do you think of this as poosed to other Manga to Anime conversions?

Also, does the second season of Mahoromatic suck or what?

Another question.

What do you think "Gekiganga III" is a metaphor for in the anime Martian Sucessor Nadeshico?

Nope, haven't watched that either. I am poor and cannot afford much anime, so I borrow it from others on a permanent basis.

HemlockGrey · Post by **HemlockGrey** » 2002-11-25 10:53pm

Nadesico? Isn't that a cracker company?

metaphor for anime otakuism.
foreshadowing device.
a parody of uber-gaint robot anime in general.
as for the specific anime it's based off of, I couldn't tell you, but it's most likely a combination of several.
