# What _is_ "Creamy Mami" (is that the right name?)

It is a story about a 9 (or 10) year old girl who became able
to use magic and tranform herself into a 15 (or 16) year old
singer.  The girl's name is Morisawa Yuu, but goes under the
name Creamy Mami when she has transformed herself.
It is one of the "magical girls" series of anime.
Just cute fun..
I think there might have been some manga of Creamy Mami,
but I'm not sure.  Creamy Mami aired in Japan in 1983 - 1984.

Yes, very different from Cream Lemon.

If you want the burned in subtitles used in film, then that's what you would
get in the D subtitle.  The only reason the film theatrically was not dubbed
was the extra $15000 or so was making the new 4 track printmaster and
optical negative for the films audio track.

If you count, only 2 Intersound voices have been used since Zillion.  One is
in Fist, one in Nadia. (At least from I can tell.)  Heck, most of the 
old Intersound actors have since quit doing it because dubbing doesn't
pay enough.

That's the major reason why I don't feel like putting Gunbuster in my 
favorite anime list, despite its wonderful character design and animation.
(The stupid mecha design is another reason -- NO nostalgic mecha lover :p)

Well, the informaion in the Palladium Robotech gamebooks are fairly
accurate, from the Robotech verson of ``protoculture'' perspective. If you
replace all references to ``protoculture engines'' with ``fusion reactors''
for Macross and Southern Cross, and ``hydrogen turbine engines'' for
Mospeada, you'll be fairly close to the original. Not exact, but fairly
close.

Has anyone seen or heard of that Street Fighter TV series?
I am interested to see if it follows the history
or which line of the comics.  I am kinda  hoping it
will follow the Jademan comic line.
 
ANyone else know any info on this?

OTAKU
(1) Original meaning: Your house (company, organiztion, etc), used as 
a polite form of the second person => you

(2) Meaning in early-late 1980's: An extreme fan of anime/manga/sf who lacks
communications with other people and usually untidy => nerd, fanboy
[Otakus used "otaku" for "you" instead of more common "anata" "anta" and that's 

 what gave them the title of Otaku-Zoku (otaku-race)]

(3) Current Usage: Anyone obssesd or overly interested with any subject
<ex.> Car otaku, Gun Otaku, etc... => mania, freak

(2) has VERY negative meanging and (3) still carries negative meaning, unless 
used between otakus, of course. :-) So use "otaku" to only other anime fans.

On the net, Otaku is usually refered to a big fan of anime and/or
manga. For example, I'm an Otaku. :-)
