Although I hate KOR quite a lot (dumb people!), I can agree that Akemi Takada
is a marvelous characeter designer, creating the look for my fav team,
Patlabor, and some MK as well.. I've yet to see Creamy Mami, so if anyone
can pass up a very brief explanation, I'm willing to listen. Heck, she
makes KOR characters look good when she draws them! (INHO, the only reason
to watch KOR is the look of Akemi Takada; that's it..nothing else)

I've heard some rumors that she will be at AnimeExpo, but then again, I'm not
the one who making the connections...If someone will elaborate on some GoH's
soon.........

Maybe if can get Yutaka Izubuchi as well, we'd have the a good portion of
HEADGEAR in AMerica! Yutaka is supervisor for Dragon Magazine, has done
mecha designs for Patlabor, has his cool comic Rune Masquer, I also
belive he did the character designs for Lodoss Wars...
(Get Michitaka Kikuchi as well, and we'll have Kia Asamiya! Creator of
 Compiler, Silent Moebius, Dark Angel, and Gunhed) Not to mention, he
is one of my favorite artists...(He does marker drawings like you wouldn't
believe!)

(I'll always push for getting an interview with Kenji Kawai, who does
the music for Ranma 1/2, Maison Ikkoku, Patlabor, Burn-Up, Zillion:White Nuts,
Ako Vs Grey Side, Vampire Princess Miyu and more..Nobody does BGM like Kenji)

Both Otaku no Video 1982 and 1985 will be available from Operation X
by late April-early May. I already finished translating them and
they will be edited and timed shortly.

BTW, Otaku can be used for both male and female.

What you saw is another one of those Bandai softvinyl things that are sold
through vending machines. There are no injection kits for anything from
0083 except GP01/GP01Fb and GP02A. Zaku and Dom Tropen are available from
B-Club as garage kits. (6800 & 7800 yen respectively, or about $100 after
dealer markups in USA)

I believe that model is actually a garage kit, from B-CLUB and cost
around 8000 yen in Japan (100+ dollars in America) and it's 1/144
scale.

If you need more detailed info, I'll browse through back-issues of B-CLUB to
see if I can find any.

Since I didn't expect the new OP, I missed about half of it on the 4/3

I don't remember the name of the songs or the singers,

Uh....well, maybe the S&E comparison is hackneyed. No biggie,since I'd still

said that starting a national club was the be-all and do-all of anime

Well, Patlabor fans! It's finally here; Sorry to keep ya waiting.
The Patlabor Griffin Wars have be scripted and timed in TurboTitler.
They will available at ftp site headcrash.berkeley.edu in the directory,
pub/AnimeB/upload/Patlabor..(at least for now..) If people want them but
don't have ftp access, please contact someone else who does before
you contact me;(this is for your benefit, my mail system is usually a
bit messed up and so I might be extremely slow in getting stuff to people
especially if a mob of people reply..)

FYI, the episodes are available off Patlabor "P" series LD's, P-10, P-11,
and P-12.

Everyone is welcome to use these episodes scripts, but we kindly ask that
these scripts will NOT be used for profit by some scummy anime pirate; We
can't enforce this in any way, but YOU SHOULD KNOW SELLING COPIES FOR
PROFIT IS ILLEGAL. PERIOD.

These scripts were originally done for Cal-Animage Epsilon, the home of
most of the Patlabor synopses and scripts, and home of many other
public-domain synopses and scripts...We thank all who have encouraged
our endeavors to bring an understanding of quality anime to you..(Boy, I
should be commercial pitch man..)

So enjoy, and soon we will have Earthian and Earthian II scripts available.
Thank you,

No, you misunderstood.  Y10,000 is the street price in Tokyo, and at
current exchange rates that is about US$75.00.  In other words, when
a Japanese fan buys BGCrash, he pays the equivalent of US$75.00
(tape and LD are same price).  US fans get a better deal.

BTW, LD prices for big hits like T2 are about the same in Japan as
they are in the USA - about Y5000-Y6000 as I recall.

Hi!
        Does anyone know where I can find a JPEG converter for MS-DOS.  I keep
seeing references to JPEG uploads, so I'd like to take a look at them.

Ah ha! So somebody actually agrees with me on this! Actually,it's not su-
prising...so many people have been burned by lousy dub jobs and/or rotten
rescripts,it's a wonder that we (if I can use "we" in an editorial sense)
didn't pack it in years ago. Admittedly,Anime isn't the only thing I'm
into-far from it-but I do expect a relatively acceptable level of quality
as far as translations are concerned. Due to the greed and sheer stupidity
of most translators over here,"quality" isn't the operable word,however. Try
the less polite term for "Male cow excrement" instead.
