:waah!:


One day!! One Day!! It'll happen one day!

*sniff sniff* Well, what's the similar title? Maybe I'd like it.
Every year in Uganda, innumerable children simply. . . disappear. These children all stolen under the cover of darkness from their homes and impressed into the guerilla armies of the LRA [Lord's Resistance Army]. In the deserts of Uganda, they are forced to witness the mindless slaughter of other children until they themselves can do nothing but kill. Kill. These children, generally ranging from ages 5-12, are brainwashed into murdering in the name of the resistance and into stealing other children from their beds to suffer the same fate.

Because of this genocide of innocence, hundred and hundreds of children live every night sleeping in public places miles from their homes, because they know that if the do not-- they will disappear. They will become just another number in this genocide to which the international community has chosen to turn a blind eye. They will become, in affect, invisible-- Invisible Children.

But there are those who are trying to fight against this slaughter of Uganda's children. They fight to protect these "invisible children." Please, help them help a country full of children who know nothing by fear. Help save the innocence. For more information concerning how you can help and how you can get an incredible video about this horrific reality, visit the Invisible Children home page.

Oh, that's fine, don't worry about it. I think I know which similar titled anime you saw because I did the exact same thing to Ashley once. And it wasn't a very nice anime if I remember correctly ... anyway, Rev, whichever fansub I have has and excellent, excellent translation. Everything is consistent, there's no "engrish" - making it one of the most professional fansubs I've ever seen. I'll check it out later and let you know who made them.

Yeah, There's atleast one good fan sub out there. The one I watched was really good.

Currently watching

Rorouni Kenshin ep. 55
Last Exile ep. 2
Trigun ep.3
Nadesico ep. 5

So far, I'm extremely impressed with Last Exile. It's WAAY better than the reviews and looks alot better than previous Gonzo Studio titles such as Blue Submarine No.6!
Trigun is very funny, and very cool as well. I recommend that as well. ;)

Full Moon ni Sasayaite. I believe it's a series about werewolves and vampires.

That would be greatly appreciated Gypsy. Thank you.

Just saw Princess Mononoke last night. First anime I've seen in quite a few years, not including occasional episodes on Toonami!

Not bad, but the storyline wasn't as impressive as I'd expected. Perhaps a little too quasi-religious for my tastes. Didn't really get much from it.

Oh--my--gosh!!! AHH!!! Then there had better be more than 26 episodes!!!

Pay thirty bucks for three episodes? I will be hurting studio executives.

I get in "must rewatch Noir" moods...because it's my favorite anime. Other than that, I rewatch Hana Yori Dango when a new DVD comes out. Nothing else right now, because my downloads are taking forever.

After watching volume 1 I give it a 9 out of 10 so far. A little about the series:

In 2167 Earth was devestated by a star light years away that went super nova. The electromagnetic wave of radiation left remaining humanity with the task of rebuilding. 186 years later we see that they have done a very good job. However, there is a second wave fast approaching. A young girl named Shima is on her way to Stellvia, somewhat of an interplanetary university. Shima is a computer wiz. But what she has advancing in that area she lacks in talents as a pilot (which is what she really wants to do). There are a number of these outposts similar to Stellvia which are all making preparations to block this second wave.

Volume 1 deals with Shima settling in to her new home and meeting new friends. I must say that I really enjoyed it much more than I thought I would. In the first 4 episodes I witnessed no fanservice and one character swore once and that was pretty much it in regard to language. The mix of computer graphics in the title reminded me very much of Vandread. It was very well done (used mostly with the space shots of Stellvia, the earth, and piloted spacecraft).

The interaction between Shima and her new friends and superiors was very entertaining. I have to say I'm looking forward to collecting this one.

Just finished Kaleido Star, Vol. 3 and will start watching Vol. 4 when my daughter wants to watch it with me.

Nurse Witch Komugi, Vol. 2. Okay, this is very funny. (^^)

[size=84][color=seagreen]YOU SEE


You see into the deepest part of me ---

beyond the fog I hide behind.

You cast your light upon the shadows

that stretch like cobwebs in my mind.

You ease the pain when I am hurting,

and morbid visions from my past

pierce into the realm of Reason

as though I danced on blades of glass.

You grant me strength when I have fallen

and, once again, I've lost my way.

You take my hand in Yours and lead me

into the promise of a brand new day.

You bring order to all my chaos,

yet set my well-laid plans awry.

You place me on a firm foundation ---

then give me wings so I can fly.

You sand away my roughened edges

and polish all the dullest parts

until I stand before Your presence...

a newly-sculpted work of art.

You see into the heart within me,

right through my motives and selfish will.

And yet, in spite of all You see

You say You love me even still.

At the moment, Inu-Yasha is the only anime I'm watching regularly. I was watching Gundam Seed kind of regularly, but kind of fell out of that habit. Other than that, I watch Wolf's Rain, Duel Masters (to laugh at the self-destructing dub) and Lupin III on occasion, and I re-watch Cowboy Bebop and Digimon whenever the mood strikes. Oh yeah, and I've seen the first half of Nadia: The Secret of Blue Water; the rest will follow when I can afford the other box.
