        We've all probably had this problem before when showing anime to non
anime enthusiasts..   I've found out that it's better to *first* show a
senseless, action packed, brutal movie with NO plot and NO story continuity to
"hook" them initially.  (Thus explains BGC's success in the mass-market).

        Now what would be the ideal newcomer show?

Well, it's hard to support any of the govermentss involved.  Possably
the best choice around was the AEUG.  I just can't make myself support
the Jions, though.  I just don't believe in Tyranical Autocracies as a
form of government.  Jion, whether it was under the Zabis, Haman Kahn,
or Char was no better than Nazi Germany.

As far as the novels go, most American fans have little to no exposure
to them, except for the ones translated by Frederik L. Schodt.  I know
you understand Japanese, but most of the rest of us don't.  I guess
we're just out of luck. :-)

I can't speak as to the ratings, but do you think these same kid would

I don't think they said it was a new group, they said it was PSY-S who did 
the song (and they've been around a while relatively speaking for pop 
groups), but I still haven't found out the song and which album it's on.

It was Seishun Shitemasu who put it together.

Well, I don't know who did Mad Bull 34, but the story seems to be centered
on the adventurs of the Japanese policeman after being transfered to New
Yorks Precinct 34.  The usual police story stuff, busting pimps, drug
dealers et al.

        Aaah..  Anna Millers.   Overpriced pie/coffee shop in Aiea, Hawaii!
Figures that it's a Japanese company, since Japanese own about 1/3 of the

Scanning through the FAQ list (yes, newbies like me do that some times) i
ran into a "girls with guns" category for suggestions, but i couldn't find
my own favorite category (above).  My own favorites in this category are:

1)  Outlanders.  Yay Kahm!  Not much scroll work on the sword, but the
    hilt qualifies it as "great".
2)  Silent Mobius.  Much neater sword, Katsumi Liquer is smarter than Kahm
    but not so cute.  Don't know who would win in a heads-up magical battle;
    probably depends on whether it was held on Earth or the Empire's planet.
3)  Iczer-1.  Light sabres only sort of qualify as swords, but Iczers use
    theirs quite nicely.  Iczer-3 doesn't qualify, as 10 year old girls
    don't qualify as "beautiful women".
4)  Dagger of Kamui.  Unfortunately, not enough sword work by the red-rose
    woman.  Otherwise this would rank above Iczer-1 in my book.
5)  Rall.  Umm, well, i need a fifth entry, you see...

So what am i missing?  Is any of the "recent" Crying Freman work with
Muramasa animated?  Is there a Caravan Kidd anime yet?  Any BW w/ GS works
out there that i can use to displace Rall?  If anyone replies directly to
me i will of course summarize, (assuming the author does not request other-
wise) but that doesn't seem to be how this list is run.

And when we get this all collected, can we dump it on the FAQ, huh, huh,
pretty please?  I'll write the entry...

I grew up with Giant Robot shows but I don't find any of these
remakes on TV to be impressive. It's not that I don't enjoy them but
their animation quality suffers from low budget and the shortage of talented
staff. 

Just look at their ratings. Iron Man 28FX only gets 2-3% rating, 
Dekkaman Blade 4-6% and Getter Robo Go only got 5%. It's clear that
these shows are not impressing today's kids. :(

Yeah!!!  The Puma sisters would be great!!!  
I would say we should use Shampoo, but that might be a bit presuptuous of me
to assume everyone else likes her as much as I do.
Annapuma and Unipuma are definately up there with Kei and Yuri and Shampoo on
my list of favourite anime women!

Put down my vote for the Puma sisters all the way!
