Just consider that he's the person who bought the Dirty Pair dolls to
see if there's anything "realistic" under their costumes, and jumped up
and down screaming when there was no "real moving parts or openings".

I don't take someone like that serious.

If the airport you mention is Narita Airport, I think it is quite a long to

I know that this is pretty old anime but does anyone have an episode list
of any sort of the _Cat's Eyes_ TV series.  I just got a majority of the
episodes so I'd like to know what exactly I'm missing.  Also does any one
have a copy of the last 3 episodes of _Cat's Eyes_?  I know I'm missing
those :(.

Thanks for reading.

     The story was originally in manga form. The whole story took
about 270 chapters.
     The television series (counting Hokuto no Ken 2) covers about
2/3 of the manga (the last 1/3 of the manga was primarily to wrap
up all the loose threads, like what happens to Batt and Lynn, who
will continue the Hokuto line, etc).
    
     By the way, for anyone with copies of any article that I had
written on Hokuto no Ken, I hereby allow you to put it on any
ftp site , bbs , or any other storage media. I do not normally maintain
copies of my own articles. 

     I have seen a compiled version of the television series (in
1 hour tapes), but they are not worth getting (beyond the music
for the beginning and ending credits) as all the shows were extremely
edited (example: the entire first season was compressed into ONE HOUR).

     Hope that answers your question.

Yes, but isn't there a Cream Lemon episode that is quite similar to this 
scenario?  I think it was part of the newer series.  Now if they'll do a 
Sazan takeoff...

Barutyuse (sp?) did pretty well in Japan as some kind of Laputa takeoff.
I wrote to Pam (Pinesalad) about the possibilities.  Her response was 
something like "There are sacred cows that no one should touch."  I wonder
if she still remembers this.  (Along with inflatable Minmei dolls that

Vampire Hunter D is being run now.

Also definites

Golgo 13
Supernatural Beast City
Manie Manie
Silent Mobius

The last two will be marketed to theaters together because of each ones
short (~45 min) length. but they will be separate when put on video.

Misc video stuff

The Planetbusters(Birth) and Windaria dubs (along with the Robodrek sctuff)
were all the old Harmony Gold properties that Streamline acquired. (Dont 
know where the other stuff went, though I don't think they were worth

     I have not seen very much of it, so I only have a little info
on it. It is a popular manga and television anime and one movie.
It is the story of the life of a young girl in Japan. I think the
author once said that it was based on her life (I don't remember this
too well). The song for the end credits won some awards (the singers
were Jazz musicians, so this was a bit of change from their usual
works. You can get the songs in the We are B.B. Queens CD).
The name of the show is the nick name for the main character.
The drawing style is relatively simple (I am not an artist, so I
do not how to classify it) and clear.
     If you live or visit Oahu, Hawaii, it is at the Bun Bun Do 
Bookstore.

This is a letter I sent to Enrique as part of an email discussion.  Since
I decided I'd like to hear other's opinions on this, I decided to post it.

>Unfortunately, there don't seem to be all that many UY fans anymore.  :-(

As much as I LOVE Urusei Yatsura, I can understand why fewer new fans
are getting into it.

1) There's too much of it for completists to get ahold of it all, unless
you're a very rich completist.

2) It's old.  Well, by anime standards.  Most of the stuff that gets
the most attention in fandom these days is less than 10 years old.  UY is
older than that, right.

3) It's esoteric.  I have to realize that I will never completely understand
the humor in UY, and that the humor that is explained to me I won't find
funny.  I wonder if the know-it-all's on the net, who love to show off their
knowledge of the complicated puns in UY, realize how much they are possibly
discouraging would-be fans?  To hear these people is to believe that one
cannot possibly appreciate the humor in UY without a graduate degree in
Japanese and Japanese culture.  This is WRONG!  UY is perfectly enjoyable
without having to know any of that stuff.  You don't need to know about
the myths of "catching a demon by the horns" to appreciate the fact that
Ataru just said *something he shouldn't have*!

I love UY.  I love how every character has two sides:
Lum -- control-freak-bitch on the outside, loving, caring, woman inside
Ataru -- Lecherous nerd out, perfectly honorable gentleman inside.
Mendo -- Ataru's exact opposite: honorable gentleman outside, petty jerk
inside.

Okay, I have been informed that at some convention, some time ago,
Adam Warren was selling copies of a sketch of the Dirty Pair in the
shower.  Having seen another sample of Adam Warren's "naughtier"
artwork, and being a big fan of his anyway, I am going NUTS with
curosity over what this thing looks like, and descriptions just don't
work.

So, if there is some kind wonderful person out there who has one of these,
and who would be willing to give me a simple, cheap photocopy of it, I
would be eternally grateful.

And if this shows me to be a bit of an anime pervert, then guilty as

Where are people placing their orders? With Animeigo? I, too haven't

I think the ending of UY is great in that it basically says: "Hey.  This is
fiction.  It's not the real world, so there's no reason to end it.  You
wanted to know whether or not Ataru loves Lum?  He does.  But if you
think they are going to settle down and get married anytime in the near

Ok, the US retail price for BGC is $35.00.  According to the exchange
rates in today's Japan Times, this is equivalent to Can$41.00.

This being the case, if the tapes are being sold at Can$20.00, they
are being sold at _below_ the largest discount AnimEigo gives anyone.

This leads me to believe that either:

	(a) The guy is mistaken about the prices.
	(b) The tapes are bootlegs.

I would like to know more about this situation so appropriate measures
can be taken.  If you learn more, please contact via email.
