Okay, Let me throw this up and see if it flies....


  As of today, I am in a position to MAKE(you read correctly) sound
bytes from various anime. Yet before I spout them off, I want to know
if they are actually WANTED by all those otaku drifting about the net.

  These bits will mostly be in .voc format, compatible with all
Sound BlasterTM software(perhaps others). I may also be able to convert
these to .wav format also.

  If this makes your hard drive drool, get on the horn and let me know.
At the moment my mail server is undergoing a MAJOR overhaul(UNIX pgp...eek)
so some responses may not get to me. Unavoidable. Sorry about the potential
waste of bandwidth, people.

  I currently have the following anime and will take requests(Songs,
dialogue, effects, cool screams, explosions,.....  ;]):

BAOH
Top o Nerai! (Gunbuster)
Detonator Orgun 1,2(3 on the way)
Pair: Project Eden
Madox-01
Outlanders
Akira(of course) {dubbed}
Dominion Act 1
Appleseed
Guyver Act I
       Act II 1-4
Hades Project Zeorymer (Cool mecha with MASSIVE destruction capabilites)
Macross II eps. 1-2

As for recompense for these files, I'll have to think about it. >B^]

WARNING: Some sound files will be pretty huge depending on what they are.
         Possibly up to 300K(Opening of Saint Seiya series)

Well, that's all from me for the moment. It's up to you now. Say, this
could start a whole new newsgroup: rec.arts.anime.soundfiles_(heh)

Nobody and nope.  USMC only bought the rights to the first one and has said
(or so I've been told) that they have no intention of acquiring the later
A-Kos.  (Although maybe if the first one does fantastically well...)
So I guess technically they're up for grabs.

These two are hack/slashed/edited version of Cream Lemon serie #10 and #3.

StarTrap is the original title.
Offenders of the Universe was SuperDimensional Legend:Ral if I remember
correctly. These stuff in original Japanese track are now available for
something like Y7000 per 2 episodes from Fairy Dust...

BTW, Infamous Tou Moriyama (5'O Clock Venus and Afterschool XXX fame)
episodes are now available on a single tape for *MERE* (sarcasm) Y12800.

All are on tape only. (No LDs :<)

Obviously, I'm not Tonghyun...

But anyway, you thought the Zion were depicted as bad guys in 0080? 
Yeah, Killing was a psycho, but I thought 0080 gave a very balanced view
of the two sides.  That's one of the reasons I like it so much - it
shows charaters who are really good at heart (Cyclops Unit, Christina,
and even Al, in a way) fighting for what they believe in, despite all

I think the two tunes that stuck for me right away were "Love is just a Koi
in the pond" (1st Ranma opening theme) and "Get Chance Ready" (2nd theme in
"Cinderella Rhapsody" (Ako/3)).  I don't think the opening theme from the
Lovely Angels TV series counts, as it stuck mostly because i saw so many
episodes one right after another...

I think objectively speaking "Kyuuketsuki Miyu" and "Sazan Eyes" have much
better composed sound tracks.  It's not all straight 2/4, you can run into
minor and major seconds, and Miyu even uses a quintuplet to accelerate the
rhythm in places.  But its complex enough that it's not "catchy"

As i write this i am listening to pieces of "Firetripper" i taped off the
LD.  It also seems to have a lot of quirky things happening in the rhythm,
but relies too much on 3rds and 5ths to build lasting interest.

Organization: AT&T Bell Laboratories
Date: Sat, 26 Sep 1992 19:24:55 GMT

- If you split a 100 posts-per-day (PPD) newsgroup into several,
  the total amount of traffic will INCREASE.

- There is no way to split between noise and signal.  A moderated
  newsgroup helps, but it stifles discussion tremendously.

- 60 postings per day is not a lot, unless you read them ALL and can
  only access the net through a 1200 modem.

- ANIME-L will have to be split into several mailing lists, one per
  newsgroup.

- A good rule of thumb for balkanizing a newsgroup is to create a set
  of newsgroups who fit the apparently conflicting requirements of:
  1) having a lot of people interested in them
  2) having a lot of people not interested in them
  If the first requirement is not met, a mailing list will suffice.
  If the second requirement is not met, most people would read the
  main and special newsgroups, defeating the purpose of the split.

Hmm.  Methinks I'll end up voting NO on a proposed split, unless I
see some good and generally accepted solution to the problems above.

According to Steve Pearl's Anime CD List, Sound Color 2 has "Orange
Mystery" but not "Natsu no Mirage".  Both songs are on the CDs Loving
Heart, Singing Heart (check it out; as good as Loving Heart, IMHO),
Orange Station at ABCB, and also the KOR CDV 1 (along with the

Millia from "Macross: Do You Remember Love?" used to be my favorite,
but then "Macross: FlashBack 2012" made me a Minmay fan forever.
Note: I am not too receptive towards Mikimoto's recent styles (after
1988), which includes his character designs for Eve in MGZ 23 III
(okay, so Kitazume did some "clean-up", but the original just seemed
too young -- c. pre-puberty age) and his recent watercolors for the
"Orguss" box collection and the cover of the new "Macross: The Movie"
remastering.

Funny, I think Mikimoto-sensei still ranks Noriko from "Breastbus--" --
oops, that should be "Gunbuster" -- fame (Freudian slips on bad terms
not good) as his favorite character.

I saw the English Dubbed version, and here's my review:
	Reporters don't quite work for me.
	The dubbing was very very poor (those "actors" didn't have
emotion in their voices...definitely broke the series for me)
	The drawing's still good.  Storyline looks semi-interesting.
	Mecha's arn't bad.  But that Minmei Defense system was just
too "childish" to be anything near what Robotech was (don't know about
original Macross, saw the "revised" story of Robotech by harmony Gold 
instead).

I-Field is useful ONLY against Mega guns and cannons and is TOTALLY
useless against machineguns, missiles and other wepons that don't
use mega particles. Also, protecting only the bridge (I'm not sure 
whether this is technically possible or not, since that'll require
far more precise control of the I-Field) is pointless because most 
weapons using mega particles are powerful enough to destroy a crusier 
in a shot or two, even if they don't strike the bridge directly. So if 
you want to put I-Field generators in a ship, they must be powerful enough 
to cover the entire ship, not just the bridge. And the power required for
generating I-Field that size would be more than the generator of any
ship can handle.

One very interesting thing is that NONE of the mechas with
extremely large output lasted more than 1-2 days of use, nor
any of these mechas ever mass produced. :-) Also, beam barrier
type I-Field vanishes after Neue Ziel, which suggests that this
type of I-Field Generators are NOT efficient (in addition to being
unreliable). Note that both Big Zam and Neue Ziel were used for
suicidal missions and the reliability wasn't a concern for them.

What if they do the same as they did with the previous releases, and simply
use compress(1) (a.k.a. ".Z") files?  I've heard no complaints because of the

Actually, I thought Gunbuster took elements from two other classic
"space war" novels:
- STARSHIP TROOPERS, by Heinlein (the space-bugs, the powersuits)
- THE FOREVER WAR, by Haldeman (effects of relativistic time-dilation
  on our protagonists and on galactic warfare)

The "aliens as galaxy-wide immunological system" thing seems like an original
idea to me, but I'm sure it must have shown up elsewhere.
