1)  I have part of the Rumik World series/whatever.  The main character 
    guy is betrothed to a pale, raven-haired, fragile-looking vampire-type 
    girl, who wants to wipe out the guy's female pal.  What's the title
    of this?  Is there a site with a script for it, so I can figure out 
    what's going on in detail?

2)  Say a character charges someone else, sword/pistol/etc drawn.  Said 
    character might shout "ONORE!"  What might "onore" mean?

3)  Whatever happened to Sandy Frank?

Thanks!  While some people don't seem to like it, Windaria was one of
the first "real" anime movies I got to see.  It was one of my
favorites even without a script, synopsis, or anything of that kind.
It really angered me when I saw that Streamline had released such a
hack job!  I paid $30 for it, and have never been able to sit through
it once.
 
It has been subtitled, and quite well, I might add.  Try contacting
Bruce Carlson, who pops up on the net every now and then. 
 
In defense of Streamline, some of their newer releases are not as bad
as Windaria.  It's just that Windaria was dubbed when Macek was still
at Harmony Gold, and HG was going to sell it to TV stations as part of
a syndication package which included The Sentinels and Planetbusters
(aka Birth).  That was in the past, and we would be able to forgive
Macek somewhat, except for the fact that he changed the title back to
"Windaria" and released it *now*, in 1992, misleading potential
buyers.  The HG dub was entitled "Once Upon a Time".  Streamline put a few 
scenes back, but only parts of them (sans dialogue).

This post reminded me to ask about something I heard awhile back.  About
a week ago, some owner of a comic book store told me that there is going
to be a new Nausicaa that's actually just the old one with a different
ending (honestly, I'm only 99% sure it was Nausicaa he was talking about :).
This is either complete rumor, old news, or new news (probably reeking old
news since this guy doesn't have Internet access :).  Lemme know if anyone
else has heard about this...

Al a disgusting creature?
        What in the world would make you say something like this?  Al was 
probably the most pure of all the Gundam characters so far.  He sees thru 
a stupid Jion costume and mobile armor and sees what even Bernie himself 
doesn't see in himself.  
        Why don't you try and give me some examples of the disgust that 
Al brings to you?

There is a very good cartoon here. Gatchaman was one of the best of the
70's anime programs I have seen. "Battle Of The Planets" was the
extremely americanized version. Virtually all the violence was excised,
and stupid footage about a robot companion, 7 Zark 7 <and his robot dog,
1 Rover 1> was added for padding. Enjoyable at the time, but now I just
find it stupid.

TBS did a different version of the show, called "G-Force". Different voices,
better conceptions, but a cheaper feel overall, and poor dubbing. Nice to 
see they didn't have Cheops <the !@W$@!$@$@#$% 'clone/mushmouth/weirdo"
from "BOTP">, but still no violence. This didn't last more than a 
month or two. But you never know when they will exhume the corpse
for another viewing.

Find a dubbed/subtitled tape of "Gatchaman". You'll feel much better.

	I believe you are describing the first episode of "Every Day is Sunday".
The young lady is a police officer, and a very good one at that, from what I've
seen of the show.  The gentleman she assaults is a pickpocket that her friend
draws her attention to as he is putting his hand in her purse.  The full scene
is rather amusing.  They chase the guy through the streets of the city and lose 
him when he ducks into a building and the girl almost gets hit by a car.  The
pickpocket climbs to the top of the building, jumps the alley to the roof of
another building, and exits that building onto the street, right in front of
the girl and her friend.  The fight scene resulting from this is also pretty 
funny, because the girl appears to be a fan of pro wrestling.  The guy in 
the white jacket and the red shirt is her semi-boyfriend (I've only seen four
episodes, it may not have developed beyond a very informal stage by then), and
is a very good street magician/pickpocket himself (although she doesn't know
about the latter part).  On the whole, it's a pretty good show, and relatively
easy to understand.

This is a next to impossible problem to cure. Flame wars will start

And there's the problem. From a technical viewpoint, it's not a
translation, but an adaptation. The story (dubbed) was greatly twisted
about its climactic axis in order to make it "palatable". I've seen it,
as well as a sub (just got it this week), and if you want an even
better version, try to find a good fan-sub.

You want an even more realistic (ie. tragic) story, get it subbed.

My first anime was The Samurai (which may or may not be Rumic's World;
I try to keep an open mind about these things) and Outlanders.  However,
I had previously seen and idolized Robotech, and Robotech Art 1 is what
really got me into it.  I loved those two shows, even though I couldn't
tell what was going on (I'm still not sure, in The Samurai--anybody
out there got an English-language script for it?) at first.  I also
got Robotech III: Not Necessarily the Sentinels at the same time.

Now I have a few more tapes, and I'm really hooked.  Hooray for anime!!!

Seriously, I think the first tapes to show a prospective anime inductee
should be something dubbed into English--they just aren't going to get
into something in Japanese at first.  After they're hooked, move up to
subtitles and scripts.

Five A-Ko movies?  I think you are mistaken.  There are only four Project A-Ko
movies.  They are:

	Project A-Ko
	Project A-Ko 2 "Plot of the Daitokuji Financial Group"
	Project A-Ko 3 "Cinderella Rhapsody"
	Project A-Ko 4 "Final"

There are also two of Project A-Ko the versus with Blue Side and Grey Side. 
Other than that, I don't think there are any others.  Hopefully we will see
them subtitled sometime in the near future.

[or is that order dates? beats me]

OZ Vol 1 (OAV) is sixth in the video charts [I want this on LD when it's
released later this year.  The manga is cool.]

Spread on Super Action Highschool Girl [although that might not be the
actual title] Looks very kute [not a spelling mistake, that is meant to be
"kute". Sailor Girl is kute, get the drift?]. Out October.

Road map for Scramble Wars or Race or whatever the bloody thing's called...
[I got home at 4:30am Sat morning and only got 3 hours sleep, as its now

Silent Mobius The Movie 2 on video January (I think. This ads is a bit
strange) With Weathering Continent out December...

The Offical Art section is on Super Cat Girl Nuku Nuku [this looks kute as
well]

And lots of stuff I've missed but that's all for now [sleep time for Mikies
