Subject: 3x3 EYES T-shirts now Available
Date: 2 Oct 92 14:56:25 GMT
Article-I.D.: sdcc12.38889
Followup-To: poster


This post is intended mainly for those people who did not have access to their 
accounts over summer.  

3x3 Eyes t-shirts are now available!  They were designed and printed by myself 
and previously sold at AnimeExpo92 and on r.a.a. over summer.  A friend and I 
are trying to sell out the rest of our stock- no shirts with this design will 
ever be made again (at least not by me :).

*  The design consists of a one-color front (3-like symbol from the manga) 
   and a five-color back (Yakumo and Pai against a shadow of Takuhi) printed 
   on a BLACK shirt (<-- looks neato).  It's just like having six colors on 
   the back.  These are SILKSCREENED t-shirts.  The GIF of the design is 
   posted at piggy.ucsb.edu under the name new.sazan.eyes.t-shirt.design.gif 
   in /pub/anime/incoming.

*  Any questions should be e-mailed to me at dlobbia@sdcc13.ucsd.edu.

*  All orders should be mailed to:
	Dominic Lobbia
	attn: T-shirts
	2346 Crescent Dr.
	San Diego, Ca. 92103

*  Price is $17.00 per shirt, plus $4.00 shipping (UPS).  For orders of
   multiple shirts, the shipping decreases; contact me for specifics.

*  That's about it! Oh, BTW, the T-shirts look GREAT! Just ask the people
   who've already bought them.  The design is also now OFFICIALLY licensed;
   that's right- they're legal (though not necessarilly by choice)...

Who says that vampires (or shinma for that matter) can't have blood.
Vampires *do* consume blood, but that says nothing about whether
they have blood of their own...

>In fact, how can she survive as long as she can without blood?
>So does Miyu also have blood flowing through her viens?

At this point, I would be very surprised if Miyu *didn't* have blood
flowing through her veins.  Her mother did, and her father was a
full human before being bitten...

>One final question is, if vampires can't age, then how is Miyu's

Miyu and her mother are different.  They are the guardians of the
shinma.  With their role, they accept that they will age and die.
With that price comes a reward: they are immune from the traditional
weapons against vampires (i.e. crosses and Holy Water).

Miyu doesn't age, since her aging was stopped until she recaptures
all of the escaped shinma...

  Look carefully. The last 'A' must have been SMALL.

  It represents the consonant 'v'. So the whole word shall be pronounced
'Lava' or 'Rava'(Both A are short). I think 'Larva' is slightly different
because the first A is LONG.

  Discussing pronunciation on network is very hard.

Hmm... a friend of mine (whom I still owe some sort of favor to) has been
pressing me to ask a peculiar question here.  He wants to know the original
Japanese names for the following two shows:

Star Trap
Offenders of the Universe

The first one sounds like one of those cheesy series I never watched, but the
second name gives him away... they're both obviously adult-themed anime,
correct?  Sigh.  Anyways, help me get this guy off my back once and for all :).

Well Michael...  There is really no subdirectory under anime at 
"sciences.sdsu.edu".  Doing a simple ls after cd-ing to /sounds/anime
should be able to get you a list of all the anime sounds there.
Unfortunately, there aren't that many there...  Here is my latest session

     There are currently (and probably never will be) anymore KOR

OVAs, but the one available contains stories that took place before
the movie eventhough most of them came out after the movie.

    This sounds odd in that it would suggest that Pacific Rim has not given 
the rights to Malibu for ANIMAG.   If Pacific Rim no longer owns the rights 
to ANIMAG then they have left themselves open to fraud charges since they 
are soliciting something that they no longer own the rights to.  If I were 
Malibu I wouldn't be happy.
 
> Basically, Malibu isn't getting paid for honoring these subscriptions.

    This I cannot refute, but isn't it normal business pratice for a compnay 
that buys the rights to a new magazine that in the agreement is a clause to 
pick up the subscriber base?  If not, then we should be reissued a refund by 
Pacific Rim.  Right?

    Yes, perhaps this is the case.  But it still would have been wise to be 
up front with the subscribers.  How many people might there be who don't 
have accesss to r.a.a. or weren't at Anime Expo to get this information?  I 
too will wait for issue 2.3.  There is no excuse after that point, and I 
will take it that no effort is being made to inform the subscribers on the 
part of Malibu or Pacific Rim for that matter.  And to be absolutely fair, I 
will write a letter to Pacific Rim berating them as well for not informing 
the subscribers of ANIMAG that such was the case.

    Again, Jeff if you are reading this, I hope you will do everything in 
your means to straighten out what has gone awry with Pacific Rim.  I'm sure 
you are probably as frustrated by the whole situation as the subscribers 
are.  How about I send you the tape I made of the kaoroke in which you and 
Trish are doing a duet to the song from Gunbuster. ^_^

I must disagree here. Joseph Stalin also believed that executing and starving
to death millions of his own people was the best thing for mankind in the long
run. I cannot bring myself to respect him.

About the Jion/Nazi connection: many Nazis believed in their cause and were
more than ready to die for it, many committed acts of heroism. Still, the
actions of those honest but misleaded individuals cannot lend any credibility
to Nazism.

Actually, Godai knew who he wanted, but didn't know how to get to
her. And for 96 episodes, Takahashi milked the idea dry..:-)
Not to mention, there was an obvious choice to who would have made
both Godai and Kyoko happy...

In KOR, you can realize that no matter who Kyosuke would have picked,
he'd still be living in his own little hell (Let's see, either the crass-

I know how you feel!  I once tried to show Project A-ko to someone,
and that person grabbed the remote and went scanning through the movie
for "blood".  I think it's just the American perception of
animation...the casual American viewer believes animation can be only
one extreme or the other -- exclusively for children or exclusively
for adults.  And the fact that they go through the movies looking for
"adult" subject matter only demonstrates their immaturity, IMHO.
 
Anyway, I would suggest you restrict access to your tapes from now on,
or at least be present while your tapes are being watched (and keep
the remote control to yourself).  I know I get annoyed when someone
gets up during the end credits...  .
