Something related to this is an anime cliche that a friend of mine calls "5
character theory".  As far as I know, the first instance of this is in Science
Ninja Team Gatchaman (sp?), aka Battle of the Planets.  Since then, it's
appeared in shows like Voltron, Mospeada aka Robotech III, several live action
shows, and even movies, like Star Wars.  The five character types are:

The Hero:
	Upstanding, idealistic, handsome.  Usually the protagonist of the show,
although people tend to think that The Other Guy is far cooler.  Examples
include Luke Skywalker, Fred from Scooby-Doo, and Scott Bernard in Robotech III.
 
The Big Guy:
	Big, and strong.  Sometimes dumb, but usually turns out to be very
friendly.  Examples: Chewbacca, Lunk from Robotech III, Ryooma from Shurato.

The Other Guy:
	Usually cool and disreputable.  If someone has facial hair, it's
probably him.  Quite often the most effective person on the team.  Lancer from 
Robotech III and Han Solo are classic Other Guys.

The Chick:
	The token female on the team.  Sometimes she knows what she's doing,
but not always.  Princess Leia, the princess from Voltron, Daphne from
Scooby-Doo.  Sometimes, The Chick is an androgynous or homosexual male, like
Reiga from Shurato.

The Pet:
	Usually annoying to anyone who has entered puberty (and thus discovered
The Chick)  Frequently incompetent.  The 'droids from Star Wars, Cheop (sp?)
from Battle of the Planets, Pidge from Voltron, the Copper Kid from
Silverhawks, and Scooby-Doo from his own show.

Occasionally, there is another archetype, The Mentor:
	Often appears to guide the characters, provide advice, or train them. 
The classic example is Obi-Wan Kenobi.  Also, Dungeonmaster from
Dungeons & Dragons, Stargazer from Silverhawks, the King from Voltron, Vishnu
from Shurato, Saori from St. Seiya.

Well, I think this posting is long overdue!  This time, I'm only
posting it in parts due to the problems some sites have trouble
receiving the whole thing!  I apologise for the delay, but I had a
horrible disk crash last month which delayed all of my FAQs, lists,
etc.

The list is broken down as follows:

0- Changes & Header

1- AD Police to Fire Tripper

2- Five Star Stories to Minky Momo

3- Maison Ikkoku to Queen Millenia

4- Ranma 1/2 to Southern Cross

5- SPT Layzner to Other

6- Collections

7- Seiyuu

8- Glossary & Sources

I have also assembled the following "Special Editions" based upon the
various CD discussions that have been going on the past month.  I can
do this for any Anime/Manga that I have data on.  This is based on the
full list and contains no new information.  These are the ones that I
have compiled.  To save on bandwidth, they won't posted but can be
requested and/or ftp'ed.

1- Nadia

2- Kimagure Orange Road

3- Ranma 1/2

4- Maison Ikkoku

5- Dirty Pair

All of these CD lists can be ftp'ed from remus.rutgers.edu pub/anime/CD.

Special thanks to Steve Linhart who once again helped me assemble the
massive amount of data sent my way.

Enjoy!

Thanks.

Have only about 10 megs of GIFs yet (the connection I get for FTP is only 2400 bps).

Years ago, the rumor hanging around RAA was that the movie following CCA 
would be about Hasaway, and everyone was bitching about it.  Then, Bandai
came up with something entirely different, F91.  Many people are still bitching
about it.  RAA is stubborn crowd, eh?

	Probably correct for the first few borg or so, but like I said, borg
learn from their mistaked, and FAST.  The next borg sent out would leave
a hole in a Zentraedi's foot.
	What if the borg captured a zentraedi and made him into a borg, like
they made Piccard into Locutus?

Video Cartoon & Comics was the only Italian magazine about cartoons 
and animation in general.
Unfortunately it folded a pair of months ago and now I and many other
italian animation fans are in the dark... :-(
As you can easily imagine the question is: can anybody suggest me 
a good non-Italian Animation NewsMag and its address?
The magazine I'm looking for should be quite general and should
talk about Japanese and non-Japanese animation.

Thanks in advance.
