The header says it all, kids. I'll be going down to Austin over Spring

cater to the anime fan. Email me if you have any suggestions...

I recently purchased my first anime tape, Dominion Act I: Tank Police.
I bought it 1) because I like cartoons :), and 2) as an incentive to
learn Japanese faster.  I was very pleased with the show, though I
suspect that much of the sub-titling was unfaithful (this is a complete
guess, because I caught very few words.)  Still, it was very humorous.
The odd thing is that after the English credits, there is a minute or
so of static, then the end of a B&W J. Stewart XMas movie (about 5-10mins,
I watched it in fast-forward), complete with sound and its own credits, 
followed by static until the tape ends.  This seems rather strange to me,
is it normal?  I'm guessing they got a good deal on old VHS tape, though
the plastic case is brand-new (yes, it came in shrink-wrap and a full
color glossy carton with pretty pictures 'n stuff.)   Any ideas?

I wonder if Alpha Team will continue with this approach and concoct another

perhaps?  I can think of how the wave motion gun can be used in a "nasty mix,"
but enuf on that...

This poses an interesting question:

Is it better to keep the amnesia or to have your memory restored only
to discover many of your close acquaintances are dead, possibly killed

   Okay, I know the voice acting in the USR dubs isn't the greatest,
but at least the translation is fairly accurate!  IMHO, but I'll take
a good translation over polished voice acting anyday.  Of course, I
prefer subtitles, but if they must dub, I appreciate the fact that
USR at least doesn't "re-write" the plot like Carl Macek does.
 
   My point is that I don't consider Iczer-One a "bad dub" in the same
way I consider Castle Cagliostro or 3x3 Eyes a "bad dub", because at
least Iczer was translated and not ad-libbed.

I picked it up at the rental shop because it was by Hirano Toshihiro,
and i was completely smitten by "Kyuuketsuhime Miyu" at the time.
(Still am.)  I am not sorry;  i've watched it several times since both
with and without the script.

I watched it in Japanese with no script or summary, but left feeling i
had a good understanding of the characters, what they had done, and
why.  I think that's the first time for me, at least on something
longer than a half-hour TV episode.  The facial and body language
still impress me, particularly Iczer-1 as she gets more tired and
damaged, and Nargisa as she gets some resolve.

A-ni-me puts this in their "see this- highly recommended" list, and
it's easy to see why.  I really want to find a copy of the "Perfect
Disk" somewhere that i can buy.

This is certainly true of Lovecraft.  I like his work well enough i
collected a lot of it in the original Arkham editions when Jerry Weist
was selling off his collection.  Iczer-1 has a bit of this in it;
humans are pretty ineffectual against the Iczer race and their
creations.  Certainly not enough to make "Iczer 1" a "Cthulhu mythos"
story but the influence is there.  However, Iczer is not just "Super
Hero Conquers All" story either, it's also sacrifice, first Nargisa,
then Iczer-1 as she returns the Earth to it's pre-invasion state and
leaves the restored Nargisa alone.

Thirded.  How about:
	REC.ARTS.ANIME T-SHIRT COMPETITION

	Each artist will submit one design for the competition.
	GIFs of each design will be put on an FTP site (If you
	don't have a scanner, I can provide a grayscale one
	if I get a copy of the artwork smaller than 8" by 11"

	After an initial period to allow people to get the GIFs
	and judge them, a poll will be set up.  The winner will
	be chosen as the T-shirt design.

[No, I'm not volunteering to do any of this.  I'm just pipedreaming...]

P.S.  Concept idea:
- Anime-style girl in "sailor" school uniform (look at the Graviton High
  School uniform for a good example).  Girl is wielding a large
  flamethrower (well, this *is* rec.arts.anime), and is wearing some
  futuristic-looking piece of cyber-headgear.  Behind her, a robot
  about 7-8 feet tall (think Briareos Hecatonchires here), probably
  her companion.  [If you use this, would you mind crediting me?  ^_^]

Anime is infamous for hidden in-jokes.  The Dirty Pair, I think, is
the most infamous.  There are references to Star Trek and other
American sci-fi movies, as well as to other anime.  For example,
in one TV episode, a large monitor behind Yuri lists the actors
of the originial Star Trek series.  In-jokes are everywhere.

yup... Sasami was Yokoyama Chisa.  Tenchi was Kikuchi Seibi.  I didn't
recognize the actresses for Aeka or Ryoko (but then again, my Japanese
is REALLY bad..)

The name of Aeka's actress looked like KoudenYubi but that doesn't sound
quite right....
Ryoko's actress was Setsu...something (didn't know the rest of the Kanji)
I guess I'll have to find the ol' kanji dictionary.. :P

From what I understand, Ranma was cancelled due to low ratings.  As for more
Ranma being produced, they have already make 2 OVA's, the Ranma music videos
parts 1 and 2 and 2 movies with the last one released to threatre last year.  
IMO, I figure it will probably follow UY's footsteps by going the OVA and
movie route.
