Does anyone know why they changed the voice of Sanjiyan for the 3x3
Eyes CD's with drama? I compared them against the video, and they are
definitely different voices.

Anyone know who did the video Sanjiyan?

Actually I believe you are wrong.  In the first episode Kyosuke counted 100
steps but Madoka insisted that it was 99 steps.  They finally settle for 
99 1/2 steps.  Anyways, in the OVA Message in Rouge she counted the steps
again and found out that Kyosuke was indeed right with his answer of 100
steps.

	I think it's a matter of taste.  To me, saying "Knight Sabers GO!" is
a lot more cornier.  (It sounded too much like cheer leaders for highschool
football)
	I prefer "presenting, the Knight Sabers" because it flows along with
the previous line:  "Who are you!?"
	Just my personal opinions.

Well, it is known that Streamline could only afford to purchase the first

The following is a short article I found in Metro, a San Jose area weekly
news magazine.

Reprinted here without authorization (^_^;)

--- cut here --- cut here --- cut here --- cut here --- cut here --- 

Just Say Pro

Japan's Answer to James Bond, now on screen in *The Professional*,
is an emotionless comic book hit man named Golgo 13. The word "Golgatha"
(The place of skulls, where Jesus was executed) is the source of the
name, along with the unlucky 13.  Watching Golgo13 -- called Duke in
the American dub -- shooting villain after villain in between boffing 
pneumatic babes is a lesson in why they gave Sean Connery all of those 
throwaway jokes. A little brooding menace goes a long way, especially
when the villains have all of the good lines: "Rip out his brains and
throw them on the floor!" a deranged oil billionaire orders his minions.
"I'm going to settle this matter of Golgo 13. And if I have to blow up
a city or two, I'll do it!" rages another bad guy.

This gory cartoon, complete with an eroticized rape, is not only stupid,
it's also cheap-looking. The animation has find backdrops and cityscapes,
but the characters look like talking cinder blocks, and the fights are 
about one notch better than the ones in the imported Japanese cartoons 
of yore. Such is the crudity of the fight sequences that it wouldn't have 
been a surprise to see a cameo by Speed Racer or Kimba the White Lion.

Silent Mobius is kinda Shadowrun:The Anime.  There are SM stories which
are "Straight" Cyberpunk, most of it focuses on the supernatural
elements.  I still think ADPolice is the best "Cyberpunk" Anime, partly
because BGC (the only competition I can think of) is too cute.

Since you brought the GIFs from network.ucsd.edu to your machine with binary
mode in FTP (which is the correct way to do it), I would place the blame
squarely on Kermit.  I've never really trusted Kermit; it's fine (although
slow) for plain text files, but it's suck-o-la on binary files.

Anyway, here's how you do it:

In Unix Kermit, you seed to turn on binary mode.

	set file type binary

And on PC Kermit, you need to issue the same command.  Then try the
transfer.  If it still doesn't work, then issue the command

	set parity even

to both Kermits. This mode will transfer binary files in an ASCII format
(almost like uuencoding the files on the fly, then decoding them on the
other end).  But because of the translation, the transfer will go about half
as fast.

The funky thing about Kermit is that you can transfer a binary file in ASCII
(text) mode and the receiver won't know that it's getting the file all
wrong.  The files will come across without error and yet will be completely
corrupted.

The ideal solution is to use one of the better, more reliable transfer
protocols such as Ymodem or Zmodem.  The better communcations programs for
the PC will support them (Procomm, Telix, etc).  The question is whether
your Unix (or whatever) account has access to the protocols.  If you're
handy at comiling programs, you can get the szrz package from
wuarchive.wustl.edu and put it together.  Otherwise, your sysadmin might be
able to install it.

Maturity seems to be a relative term when you're talking about "cartoons"
or "anime".  When this whole argument first came up, the pride and joy
of the American TV cartoons were things like "He-Man" and the "Smurfs".
Disney movies hadn't begun their resurgence yet, and "Robotech" was
a new and different show.

Compare that with the common anime offerings...things like "Crusher Joe",
"Nausicaa", the various "Urusei Yatsura" movies, and all of the
features starting to come out as OAVs.  (Many of these don't have US
equivalents...even today...)

When comparing the two groups above, *of course* anime will seem to
be more mature...because it was.

In a sense, though, we were comparing apples and oranges, because most
US fans didn't have access to the TV anime...most of which was aimed
at the same age groups as their US counterparts (though I'll *still*
take "Minky Momo" over the "Smurfs"... :-)).

In today's world, the US cartoons have become somewhat more sophisticated.
Much of it is still insipid, and there's nothing subtle about those
cartoons with a "message", but at least they've lost that "the only
reason why this cartoon exists is to sell more toys" mentality.
Some have even picked up loyal followings (e.g. "Tiny Toons").

Overall, I think that anime still has the edge in terms of providing
an entertaining story, though the picture is getting more complex
these days.  But that's a good thing, isn't it?
