Subject: Are There Any Anime Societies In My Area?
Date: 11 Apr 92 19:43:44 GMT
Organization: Florida Atlantic University, Boca Raton

Hello.  I'm the President of the Florida Atlantic University Science-
Fiction Troupe (FAUST) and I was wondering if there are any anime groups 
here in the Boca Raton area.  For the next semester, I would like to see 
if we could get some anime showings, and if we get a con going, an anime 
room for it.  Anyone who responds to this post, please E-Mail and quickly
(we're getting off soon for the summer break).   Thanx.

The idea of a little girl turning into a big girl is very common.
It exists in many anime and manga.
The most current one (on TV now, although it is a remake) is Minky Momo.

Compared to what?  Dubbing always sucks.  Of course, that's no excuse.  But
I would, for once, like to hear about a good dubbing.  What about the
English Laputa?  Was that any good?

I love Robotech.  Not because its a work of art.  It's not.  It's a hack
job.  But because the beauty of Macross is too strong to be drowned even
by Macek.  It was the first anime I ever watched, other than the odd half-an-
episode of Star Blazers.

I thought he sounded like a typical Narrator, and I doubt it was Macek.

Point taken.

Too bad Japanese animation has been dismissed as worthless because of 
what the redubbers/rescripters have done to it.  It's also too bad that
the "popular" kind of animation right now is largely kiddie stuff like
fairy tales.  If only America were ready for PG or R rated theatrical
films, such as Megazone 23...sigh.

From my understanding, V.MAX 1-2 are available through comic stores
and 3 and 4 have been laid out.  I believe though that cash flow
problems have delayed the printing of Issue 3 until Issue 1 & 2 are
sold out.  Just an unsubstantiated rumor, so don't hold me to this.

It's opening animation is that "Rock the Planet" thing, the story is about
these magic heart-shaped candies that Ran-chan gets from a nature-spirit, has
the silly effect of objectivifying the eater's affections in a big red heart

Easy enough to explain. The Super Famicom is only liscenced for selling in
Japan, and the US equivalent is the Super Nintendo. The reason it's been made
illegal, aside from the market both of them are directed to, is mainly because
of the difficulty in getting world wide movie liscences by game manufacturers.
Since Nintendo was the first to use protection circuitry, the problem with
liscencing was mostly overcome, but buying or selling a game system from a
different country, especially one that can only play games from the other
country, is a blatant act of copyright violation. TTYL.

The only thing I know about this anime is that I saw an ad of it on an
issue of B-club. No real tanks in it (as I know the german word
'Panzer' means armour in the more general sense of the world, not only
tank) just many mecha of various shapes. From the picture in the ads
it seems that they fight with melee weapons just like middle age
armies, the graphic is nice (modern anime mecha style) and seems
interesting for anime mecha fans like me.

rental. It gives me a chance to see a animation that I may or may not
be interested in, or more likely can't afford to buy. The idea of getting
the films into to rental chains is a good idea. The only problem I have had
is getting my hands on one of these tapes since most of them are allways
out. The tapes seem to be very popular, there are at least three different
Blockbuster video stores in a reasonable distance from where I live
all are carring BGC and all have had them out almost constatly.

How about the Santa Cruz Group's version of Macross the movie? If these people
are REALLY new to anime, I'm sure they'll be quite impressed by it. Not only
are the subtitles in it ridiculously easy to read, but from what I can tell,
the translation's completely accurate! True, I'm not exactly fluent in Japanese
yet, but they didn't pull any punches in their version. eg. in the other
versions I've seen, when Misa and Hikaru were stranded on Earth, Hikaru made
some comment about Misa "switching back and forth between subjects like an
acrobat" or something like that. In this one, Hikaru's telling her how his
father died. I could give you a lot more examples, but I wouldn't want to write
a message the size of that CD listing a while back.

> 	3)Would you show a not-so-good quality subtitle?

Well, it would all depend on what it was and how miserable the recording was.
If it's REALLY bad, eg. the recording doesn't even have colour 90% of the time
and there's dropouts in the audio track all over the place, you'd be better off
throwing it in the trash and trying to get a new copy. TTYL.
