You guyz should watch Ghost in the Shell: stand alone complex (i think its the one on TV right now in Japan.. season just started.. they're about 12-14 episodes right now.. if i'm not mistaken) and GTO [Great Teacher Onizuka] oh man.. i have yet to watch GTO but i have many episodes d/l on my comp right now. Ever since my friend came back from China that's all i've been doing, watching anime that is. Oh.. how is cowboy beebop.. i saw the movie and that was pretty cool.. but hows the anime?

GITS as its refered to in the fansub world is VERY popular ... i should know my group is the #1 downloaded version of it. look for AONE and you get quality.

Cowboy Bebop is GREAT. great music and a story line that kicks much ass on most other series ...

to go off the topic of noir that someone brought up outside this thread ... when it should have been asked here ...

Noir is decent but the story drags ... ive seen the first umm half or so of the series and although its visually stunning i thought it relied a tad bit much on the blood and gore factor ... that doesnt even count on the entire female lead roles ... so needless to say its filled with fan service to no end. i wouldnt mind seeing the rest of the series but im not paying 30 bucks a DVD for the privilage of watching 3 or maybe even 4 eps per. i hav better things to spend my money on like Berserk or Kenshin ....

Ninja Scroll: The Series
does the series air in Japan or USA?.. i havent kept up with any info. on the series, so if anyone knows anything - can u post some of it, thanks..

nemo_wolf · #42 09-20-2003, 12:46 PM

its airing in japan ... should be very done there ... i remember hearing about the battles between fansubbers and retailers. fansubbers can put out decent subs for any series withing 3-5 days of it airing in japan. this causes problems cause the us distributor of the series was pissed that several groups were doing that series even though they had already bought the liscence for it. needless to say, all but one group stopped subbing it but that one group continued ... they arnt the best of subbers so i hear ...

anyways long story short, you should be able to find early eps of the series online via irc and MAYBE, long shot, kazaa and emule and such ... but not the full series. infact, if the distributor put as much weight as i think they did ... you might not actually find anything at all and have to wait for the commercial release which should be some time in 04.

Well I just bought the U.S. Version of Initial D. Thank god TokyoPop was smart and decided to put both versions on the DVD. I wasn't even able to get through the scene where Itsuki is talking to Takumi about buying a car from the Auto Trader looking mag. I do believe I stopped right when Mogi walked up. They butchered it big time, but as I said, thank god the original is on the DVD also.

i normally watch with english subs and vocals so i can compare the translation the lip translation. they do make an honest effort to make it unlike a bruce lee flick with shitty voice overs. appreciate the fact they do put some time into this ...

well it didn't look like they put too much effort into it this time around, but instead of going into that again, go check out my post on the Initial D forum. I had a couple paragraphs to say about the DVD, both good and bad.
