[tonberry_kun]

ah well someshit like that

Really like Scryed, though nobody else seems to, let alone know what it is?

Other ones I'm watching/rewatching at the moment are .hack//sign, Kenshin, Witch Hunter Robin, Saber Marionette J and Excel Saga.

No dubs though...

Scryed was good, was much different cept at times, especially in the ending it was too much DBZ like.

FLCL is what Evangelion tried to be but couldn't be.

I wonder when initial-d stage4, episode 5-6 will come out.

grrr. been waiting ages for it!

 

[Atotoi]

well they DID run it twice. i think that was plenty attention for one series. then it aired on adult swim a couple of years later. i wish sbs would screen more anime =/

I agree.. once it neared the end of the first series, i was completely turned off the whole series.. the ending was absolutely... UNFULFILLING!
So i never watched the second... well SBS hasnt been too bad with anime.
It did run Bubblegum Crisis for two years?? and i know it has played the "Count of Cagliostro" many times.. which is a cool movie... why has the character "Wolf" become a cult figure??

I saw his friend with the sword as much cooler.. Ive seen heaps of Wolf stuff, mainly at Market City on saturdays and at Games Infinity of the same place.

 

[astro]

a little off topic...but i can't wait till the initial d movie comes out

"Lupin" is a cult figure because there are about as many Lupin movies as there are James Bond movies, some good, some bad. Castle of Cagliostro is the pick of the lot though. I think there was also a TV series of Lupin, so it's a pretty huge franchise.

lol yeah initial-d live action

or someshit

it's gonna have real people etc.

so the driftin should be real too

sweet!

 

[reno2004]

Damn Initial D. Why does everyone think it is so great. one, it is so predictable. two, the original graphics were fair dodgy, and three, it is so repetitive. I mean it was cool at the start cause their is no other anime like it, but the fourth stage is so predictable. It is becoming another Pokemon, where u know who is gonna win and how, cause there is so much explaining stuff from ryusuke and they leave obvious hints.
