I just came into the possession of a Books Nippan flyer that describes
their Books Nippan Japanese Animation Fan Club.

For someone who plans to purchase videos distributed by them (US Renditions:
Gunbuster, Macross II, Guyver, Orguss, etc) it sounds like a good deal.
The $12 membership fee is quickly compensated with the purchase of just
three tapes at the member price.

Any current members out there who would like to comment on BNJAFC and help
out an anime newby ?

Thanks !

Damn.  This thread had to get started as a contenplate buying the whole TV
series on LD.  Bye bye money.  (12 volumes X $70.00)

Anyway, I certainly hope that the world isn't nearly that cutthroat,
particularly in the world of romance.  I've had some rough experiences in the
past 8 years (HS and undergrad), but nothing to suggest that the world is
THAT harsh.  It's just really complicated for two people to get together.

Just imagine.  You need to find a girl or guy who is comaptible (but different
enough to be interesting), sensitive, mature AND into anime.

Life is cruel on the average otaku.  To quote Chun-Li, "OTAKU LOVE SUCKS!"

Hehe, thanks for the quote, Dani-chan!  |)

I don't think those scenes show Akane is sexually attracted to Madoka.
I think it is just a very "strong" worshipping of Madoka,
which is unrelated to sex.

"Straining"?  I dunno about that.  The translation of the "B-ko bathing
scene" that I read went along the lines of "my breast throbs for you, C-ko".
That sounds sexual to me.

Also, you should keep in mind that the original concept for PROJECT A-KO
was as an episode of the CREAM LEMON series.  I'll concede that the plot 
has changed a lot since then.  Still, it's always been my pet theory that
the names "A-ko", "B-ko", and "C-ko" are taken from the way that Japanese
children classify relationships: "A", "B", and "C" are sort of like
"first base", "second base", etc.

     Devilman Cel Auction

     During our visit to Dynamic Productions on December 25th, the F.A.C.E.
Directors were give sixteen top grade cels from the Devilman 2 OAV. Two of the
cels included backgrounds. The cels were personal gifts from Go and Miko Nagai
but the F.A.C.E. crew decided that they could be better used to raise money to
start a scholarship fund. We received permission to auction the cels at Anime
America with the proceeds going to a scholarship fund. The scholarship will be
awarded to a deserving artist in 1994, based on the recommendation of a panel
of professional artists. Details of the scholarship program and rules of
application will be published in the coming months.

    Correct in all respects, however, the hotel has given written assurance of
this such that they are in default on their contract if they cannot comply.
 All the closed circuit permissions are conditional on the system passing
muster. If the system fails testing, the videos will get bumped to the video
rooms as usual. That's a loss but not a big one.

    Yes but I have a great deal of sympathy for people who can't take the
opportunity to catch up on their TV episode collection. When I can, I try to
help in that respect. Still, if we are to be professional in our approach to
holding conventions and if we are to earn the respect of the vendors, then we
have to obey the laws, in spirit as well as letter.

Actually, that's a not-too-uncommon practice among cheap, reap-a-quick-buck
tape manufacturers - a lot of those 10 bucks or less tapes you see in
supermarkets and the like are in EP.

Now, hacking out about 4 or 5 minutes from each episode (which are only 25
minutes total max, including credits) and THEN sticking them on EP tapes -
that goes beyond being cheap!

I have a general quesiton open to the net.  Why is it that in 
most of the Japanese Animation begining music and ending music
there are english phrases to be found there?
Most of the lyrics are in Japanese, but now and then an english
phrase can be heard sung by the vocalist.

Is this a fad?  An accepted procedure for Japanese song writers
in ANIME?  I was just wondering what the answer is for those of you
who are better able to answer this.

It seems very common in ANIME.

Well, right from the end of the Macross II video, which I just watched (or
was it Kimagure Orange Road? hm.. I OD'd on anime this past week) it was
mentioned: "Got a modem? Anime is discussed on Compuserver, GEnie, and
Usenet's rec.arts.anime" or something to that effect.  Now that I think of it
more, I'm almost *positive* it was KOR vol.1..

Subject: SF anime-inspired giant robot story in Asimov's
Date: Wed, 30 Dec 92 23:33:54 GMT
Organization: University of New Mexico, Albuquerque
Distribution: usa

The cover story of the Jan. 1993 issue of Asimov's Science Fiction magazine
is called "Mudzilla's Last Stand".  In it, a Japanese corporation, whose
engineers had been influenced by anime like "Macross" and "Patlabor" ,
had actually built a couple of giant robots.  They were sort of a dud in
what they were intended to be used for, so the company was looking for a
way to get back some of their money.  They end up selling one of them to
a US company that runs big-truck and tractor-pull types of events in the
Midwest and Southern states, which is the basic framework of the story.

Warning: Those who are easily offended by a certain abbreviation that refers
to Japanese or by the term 'cartoon' used for animation, there are a couple
of occurences of each happening in the story.

    We are sorry for the delay on the release of Anime + Plus.  We recently
received the printing, and the pages were not collated correctly.  We sent
it back to be re-run.  We hope to have it out shortly.  On top of that, the
second issue update will be done soon; we are almost done with articles for
issue 2.  Look forward to it, and we're sorry for the delay.
