I'm also thinking about getting Katamari Damacy for the PS2 because I've heard it's really easy, cheap, and addictive.

Is that the game where you basicly make a garbage ball. I've played the demo for it. It is rather addictive but I'm not sure I wanna buy it.

By the way, I've built up quite a collection of manga in the past couple of weeks; as soon as the last packages arrive, I'll have volumes 1-5 of Ai Yori Aoshi, Girls Bravo, Negima, Ranma 1/2, and Tenjho Tenge. The plan is to read the first 5 then order the next 5 or so until I have the whole series.

Nice strategy. Ranma is a really good read. I've found though, that the further you get in the series, the less interesing it is. I mean don't get me wrong, I love all the ones I've read. I just like the earlier ones better. I've liked Negima so far. I like the manga better that the anime. As for Ai Yori Aoshi and Tenjou Tenge, I watched them both and LOVED them both but I've not read the manga yet so you'll have to let me know how they are. 2 Totally different genres of anime though imo.

Are you from germany? Or why do you speak german? Cause I'm from Austria, so german is my mother-tounge^^

Also in Overdose you can play as RB as well as Juji but only after you beat the game with Grave. Both are very good but Overdose is better, for one it's longer and two you have more characters and overdrives.

Are they rpg/first person/beat 'em up...?^^

do u lot watch hentai

Gah, sophomore year is killing me... Sorry for not being around for a few days.

I've doing classwork and forming my own fansub group in my spare time.

BTW, what new series are you guys looking forward to for this Fall?

I'm psyched about:

Kanon (2006)
DEATH NOTE
Kujibiki Unbalance (2006)
D.Gray Man
Negima!?

Nope, my mom is from Germany so I kinda grew up aoround it even though I don't speak it fluently I still can get by with what I know but at the moment Ich wonha im USA I do plan on visisting Germany with my family soon though.

I happen to have the first one, and i plan to get Overdose sometime soon. Both of them are pretty good games to have.

They are both 3rd person shooters.

I assume a good number of us do.

LL Starks I love how well express your emotions about 10th grade. What you got going on is pretty much a walk in the park compared to my college work but hey hang in there. It won't be long before you have graduated and your off to college ^_^

He is in college, a sophmore in college at that lol.

I'm happy, now. The final volume of Cyber City should be arriving from Netfilx tomorrow. (took long enough) huzzah!

Nothing really, I'll probably just stick to what I'm watching/reading now.

Oh!! Sorry LL Starks when I seen sophmore I thought in high school. I did exactly what Nucksta did when he first read my post. I didn't look at your profile. I do apologize to you though for a simple but funny in a way mistake. Oh and as I had told Nucksta I'm a female not a bud or a good sire but hey no big deal.

*Formally bows down to LL Starks*

I took Mast3rminds advice and started watching Magical Shoppin Aracade Abenbashi or however the hell you spell it, absolutley hilarious. Hard to think the guys that put Evengellion together did that too. I also started rewatching BECK for anyone who still hasen't seen it I command you to immedetly and if you don't well I don't know but go know.

Styled like a third person shooter. There is so much to destroy in each game, especially Overdose that it's not funny at all. I got bad addicted to Overdose for about two and a half months or so. Kinda like the Devil May Cry series in a way and then again, not. You'll have to play them to fully understand how great they are.

Also, GioGaiGar meets Master Asia? O_o

The only ones I have heard of are D.Gray man and Death note (I have some manga of both) and I do not like D. gray man, I was looking for another shonen jump advanced manga that was similer. I can't remember the name and I lost the shonen jump it was featured in. Are you talking about anime or manga because I'm interested in how they will do death note in an anime. I think the seres would look strange in color.

Haha....myspace tom has created an evil empire. Slowly sucking frequant NG users into its vicious army.

Heh. So Anime Network finally seems to have decided to let Comcast show Ghost Stories again on demand, but at the cost of Full Metal Panic. Personally, I'd have preferred FMP, but that's just my opinion.
Also, Episodes 3 and 4 of Narutaru were in the Wicked Anime section of Anime Selects On Demand. i suggest you guys check these out. :D

OMG, RTLII aired the first episodes of NARUTO in german....
OMG, it sucks so hard, I can't even watch a whole episode without switching station!
The voices are horrible (sakura sounds like an old woman), they censored EVERYTHING, immagine they even censored the "kiss" between Naruto and Sasuke.
And of course, they mispronounce everything that can be mispronounced: names, jutsu, places, the word jutsu itself, the word ninja, they translated konoha, they put the sensei in front of the names instead of adding it at the end....

I could go on ranting about this stupid RTL for hours...I think I'll write them some hatemail...

So there is someone more evil than 4Kids... Lately, I've relied more on Shonen Jump than Toonami as a source for One Piece, and I no longer give a rat's ass what Fox has on Saturday mornings. I hope someone more competent picks up the German version of Naruto before you're driven insane.

I finally saw Cyber City volume 3, and as I had feared, Benten is the main focus of this one. The first starred Sengoku and the second starred Goggles, so I figured this one would star Benten. I don't know what the hell Kawajiri was smoking. Benten is this sissy with girly hair, long, painted finger nails, and lipstick. not a good idea for a star of a sci fi action anime. the Vampire dude was cool, though, and

OMGSPOILERS!

it was neat when the airlock of the ship opened and he was torn apart.

ENDSPOILERS!

I think the second movie is the best one.

Golgo 13: Queen Bee should arrive tomorrow. I hope it's at least somewhat close to being as cool as the Professional....and that they didn't try any CGI shit, because that CG helicopter was mad gay.

The horror, THE HORROR!!!!
I can't imagine how miserable an experience it would be to watch RTL's dub....

You know that's pretty bad if Sakura sounds like and old woman. I wonder how anyone could make a possible mistake like that to such an awsome character.

yeah, i knew that was a girl name the second i read it.

I hate it when second-rate networks air anime, censor the hell outta it, fill it with plot filler, and dub it wrong. It destroys the reputation of anime *cough*Cartoon-Network*cough*, and it makes it look generic.

On another note, school and extracurricular activities have really eaten into my anime time. Any suggestions as to watch? I'm still watching AS anime, because that's the only thing I have time for.

[at least trinity blood kicks ass].

For the record, the voice-overs on the Yu Yu Hakusho movie suck ass.

OMFGENTERTHESPOILERS

I'm referring to I think the second YYH movie, where they talk about the Netherworld and they have to find the Elemental sites.

OMGENDTHESPOILERS.

They made Yusuke and Kuwabara sound like normal folks instead of the fighters they are, they took away the gentleness of Kurama's voice, the slight arrogance in Genkai's and the TOTAL arrogance in Hiei's...
DAMN THEM.

Doesn't suprise me that most ppl get their anime from "sites" instead of watching it on TV.
The ppl who do the dubs should do that too, maybe they'd do better jobs then...

Don't knock CN, they've aired some fucking awesome series, dubbed badly and not. Every day I thank my lucky stars that they aired G Gundam and The 08th M.S. Team when they did, two of the best Gundam series out there[from what I've seen.]Hell, I'm even greatful they aired the original Gundam even though the last few episodes were never aired due to the 9/11 incident.

Cartoon Network was the first channel I ever say any kind of anime on. Hell Dragonball Z, one of my gateway anime, is still one of my favorite series ever and it doesn't have that bad VAs[aside from a few]. So don't go knocking CN, they bring anime to the masses for free. If 'said viewer' likes it they'll go out and buy the DVD or whatever and watch it subbed.

I heard Funimation didn't get to license the two movies, something like a company called Central Park Media did. True?

Yes, U.S. Manga Corps(CPM's anime division) did the dubs of the movie, it was pretty bad.
