  1. OK, after letting my head cool down a little bit, I still say this, while the product itself may not be under attack this article (for whatever reason, not pointing fingers) to me, paints it in a bad light. For the manga to anime translation, after a little searching (namely looking around animenewsnnetowrk.com) I admit that while the story appears to be the same, the artstyle does look quite a bit more provocitive. So a concede(sp?) on that point. The OC point I still stand by if someone lets them watch OC but then turns around and hates on Peach Girl, then they're not paying close enough attention. I don't know the family, so I can't comment on that situation. But I will say that this report makes Peach Girl sound worse than The OC. Once again this is going on the anime, I know there could be a difference. The way out of proportion bit I still stand by. While it may be one report just the way it's written, while it does involve some valid points, blows the "bad acts" out of proportion, it sounds much worse than it is. The hentai label argument you backed off a bit on so I don't think I need to further explain there. Once again I will say that the parents putting guidelines on what their daughter reads is a good thing, and thinking about it, think it's a good thing that they brought it up. The one thing that really, REALLY gets me is that Peach Girl, a very good series is brought up in a very negative light with one side of the series being shown but not the great love story and the great character development, yada yada yada. Once again I know there could be a big difference from anime to manga but most will view it as the same. Once I finally get through the show with the WAC, I'm going to do a review so I can (at least to this website) show the side that isn't shown.
  2. OK, for starters, I have watched the first half of the anime of this series, and while it may not be appropriate for 11-year olds to some people. I don't think it's that bad, it's no worse than stuff you'd see on The O.C. While it may be a parents decision I think the media blew this WAY out of proportion. The thing I'm most pissed off about now is that this incredibly good series is going to be labeled as some hentai crap WHEN IT IS ANYTHING BUT. Drugging? Ok, I'll give that one, Sae (the evil bitch) drugs Momo (the main character) to put her into a compromising position (you really need to see the show to understand it.) The set-up rape? Used by Okayasu (Momo's friend) as a scare tactic to keep Sae away from Momo. It is clearly explained that IT WAS ONLY A SCARE TACTIC AND THAT NOTHING ELSE WAS SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN. Violence? Nothing more than a fistfight. Sorry I'm freaking pissed off now. After the slightest of looking I find out the swinging is from Marmelade Boy (GET YOUR DAMN FACTS STRAIGHT) I haven'te seen MB but hear it is also very good. The manga is rated 13+ (so technically she shouldn't have had it. In my rage I challenge each and every one of you to download a fansub of this show and tell me this is offensive. I can understand parents not wanting their 11-year old to read it, but Damnit, like I said, it's a very good series that's going to have its good name dragged through the mud, fuck you parents, for taking this public. Good parenting, but there was no reason needed to take this public.
  3. Sympathy vote going to Rugrats here.
  4. BOOOOOO. This sucks worse than my new sig on the oratory
  5. Comedy is good, mainly because I'm going to put my own action one together and I don't want you taking my idea
  6. Jack Fucking Bauer. Better than any of them could ever hope to be.
  7. After looking at Shinmaru's avatar, I just remembered I forgot to count the two I'm watching on DVD. RahXephon & Street Fighter II V
  8. Reading Nothing Watching: InuYasha, Naruto, Gundam SEED, .hack//SIGN, Witch Hunter Robin, Hellsing, Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex, One Piece, Galaxy Angel, Kaleido Star, Peach Girl, Doki Doki School Hours, Ranma 1/2, and starting this weekend Kimi Ga Nozomo Eien
  9. QUOTED FOR FUCKING TRUTH By the way if that does make it in there, I will register under a billion nam,es and use each of them to vote for that
  10. Leave it as it is, for a long time on the oratory, it has been Master Yoda, for a long time on the earth-2 boards. It has been Master Yoda. When you recruited me to earth-2 last summer, it was Master Yoda, leave it as it is. I like it when people stand by their handles.

    Soulcalibur III

    Played some of this game last night and it is absolutly phenominal. Randon Create characters is enough of a reason to buy this alone. Tambourine Tony vs. 55-year old Link. YAY!!!
  12. Recently added RahXephon, the complete series
  13. So you're just going to dump me, just like that? You bitch!!! For that assmaster Cash, HE FUCKING STOLE YOUR ACRONYM FOR THE LADDER MATCH!!!!! All joking aside, I'd love to be a guest
  14. Okay, I'm on dial-up, would it be possible for somebody to convert the file to mp4 so I can hopefully get it a little quicker. Also the fact that I'll prolly only get to watch it on my PSP is another reason.
  15. A motorbike Close, but no, I'm looking very specific here. Ah, you mean a Vespa, then? Yes, and it's a scooter, anyhow, go
  16. A motorbike Close, but no, I'm looking very specific here.
  17. Then it all crashes down, and you break your crown, and you point your finger but there's no one around, just one more thing, just to play the king, but your castles crumbled and your left with just a day. What do you think Though I was kinda hoping you hadn't discarded my Just Like You music video, it's a damn good excuse to watch Shaman King
  18. Mu La Flaga In Witch Hunter Robin, what is Robin's main mode of transportation?
  19. I looked it up last night. currently trying to download the frst 14 episodes. YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  20. Ditto, only thing was everyone going nuts about the Katamari tourney (It was We Love Katamari btw) got the entire convention on a tight leash, only thing I'm pissed at was I missed Gundam SEED Destiny in the viewing room (after getting my brain fried watching the last 7 eps of Gundam SEED b2b2b2b2b2b2b at Skyre's Friday Night) I spent well over $150 with my big spend being RahXephon, the full collection for $90, Yugioh was good to my surprise, and there were a few others (I can't believe neither me or Skyre took a program home) that were good including one SPECTACULAR one that we forget the names of. Also FF VII:AC, I'll put up a review for it and here's one line I'll use to describe it. "You know how video game movies tend suck.....well this makes up for EVERY ONE OF THEM."
  21. Only seen Excel Saga of those three and it is pretty weird and funny all at once, nothing beatshaving a guy fall to his death because the beam he was walking on disappeared because a flashback was being projected in the area (I am not kidding in any way whatsoever)
  22. Yoda, thank you so much for having it and allowing James, myself and the other anime nuts to express outrselves in the last 2 weeks. For the record I don't consider AF over, I'm going to my first anime convention (Chibi-con) tomorrow
  23. Now convert it into mp4 and give me a copy so help me god I will roundhouse kick you ith the fury of 1000 Chuck Norris' BTW I'm prolly going to add to my collection this Saturday when I got to Chibi-con, my first anime convention
  24. If it would help (and I haven't talked to Yoda about this so if I'm wrong sorry) you prolly could take a day to do it and Yoda could post my Dip in the Pool column tomorrow and put the FF Concert review as the AF finale, onle fitting that you get the honour
  25. What happened to Sonic SatAM SatAM was good, but other than the fact that it was a Sonic show (which does count for a lot), it was only good. Shaman King was all around greatness
