Does anyone know where I can find stuff from Dominion.  I'm looking for shirts,
posters, that kind of stuff.  I think someone posted about this a few days ago,
but thanks to the news server here I can't find the post.  Post or e-mail, it
doesn't matter.

There are several scenes spoken in either Mandrin or Catonese

Last Friday night, my Club screened "Giant Robo", something my Club president

I haven't the faintest idea what it's about.  Could someone please fill me in
on it?  Thanks, in advance.

Asuma Shinohara is Noa's commander, and son of the head of SHI. He's
the sane looking one. :)

And yes, the pictures are the mix-up. :)

Ohta, the short stubby one is the one with the Sledge Hammer complex.
:) (All right, Tonghyun, I'll shut up already.)

For the life of me, I can't understand why most female fans like Ohta
over Asuma. (Looks-wise he's worse off.. Maybe girls like Ohta's
recklessness... Could be, after all, I prefer Noa over Kanuka [or
Kumagami].)

 > This is where I am confused.  It looked to me like the guy they identified

They just got the pics mixed up.. I suppose it's why I was always so
put-off by Patlabor until I saw it. From the descriptions and pictures,
the characters seemed so mis-matched to their looks.

Bret!  Correct me if I'm wrong!

Manga-Chan is Bret's new mail order company.  By sending the money to
the Seattle address, not only are you still protected by US Mail Order
laws but it is faster.  Speculation:  Bret does't have to wait for the
check to clear through International banks and so has faster access to
the money.  I assume someone in Seattle is depositing the checks,
emailing Bret the order, and letting him know when the checks clear
via email so he can mail you your order direct from Japan.

That's how I would do it.

As for how fast and reliable they are, I haven't received anything
yet, although I have a special order with him now (Used games, which
are significantly cheaper then new games but require a greater effort
in "shopping").  I know others on the net have received orders from
him no problem.  I have had problems in the past with orders from
Laser Perceptions and Books Nippan so dealing with a "reputable"
company may not be the way.


So Bret, How much is Intron Depot?

On Saturday at HAMACON, the 31st Annual Japanese SF convention, Artmic
gave a sneak-peak of SCRAMBLE WARS, their SuperDeformed parody of all
of their characters.

This review is somewhat fragmentary, as I spent most of my time rolling
on the floor laughing.  Basically, it's a spoof of "Whacky Races," which
itself was a spoof, and all the characters are competing for the Genom
Trophy (and big bucks) in the race.  The major teams are:

Priss (on Motoslave)
Sylia and Mackie (Turbine assisted Panty delivery truck)
Nene and Linna (ADPolice Van)
Gal Force Gals (modified starship)
Itaru and Sahari (on a Mechahorse)
The Pride of Genom (aka "Mr. Boomer")
The Masked Rider (on a way cool cycle)

Plus cameos from a variety of other characters.  Lots of wierd plot
twists which I won't reveal, all very very funny.

  Along those lines  does anybody have the same for Dougram?

Most likely due to accents of the voice actors. Remember it's very hard
to write the above in romaji without people getting the sound slightly
wrong.

I'm my experience (mostly from repeated listening to the CD) I got
"Topp- wo neraiy [with very little emphasis on the "i" itself, and a
very slight "e" sound after the "y"]...

There are so many Gundam series, so little time.

I too wish that there would be a Zeta disc set, but I don't think it will
come anytime soon.  It has always been my favorite series since I first
started watching anime.  Thw two things I love about it the most are the
mecha and character interaction - it is always so tragic.  I have yet to
see an affair like the Camille Bidan and Four Murasama episodes, and the
constant conflict between Camille and Jerid leaves a trail of women in the 
wake.  Indeed, the cast mortality rate for Zeta Gundam is amazingly high.
Another good aspect of Japanese series, anime and especially manga - the 
stories end, unlike american run-on-until-we-aren't-making-money-off-the
toys mentality.
	so what happened to ZZ?  I know that it was intended to be a joke,
something to kill GUndam off, but at some point it started to get serious.
Did Tomino change his mind and decide that he liked it after all?
Everything was all happiness and cute, with the mandatory mecha stealing
in every episode, but then Ple II showed up, Glenmy got serious,
everybody became super-newtypes and started glowing, but most of the cast
survived.  What a crock.  THe Hambrabi team killed a bunch of characters
before they ran into Emma Sheen and Camille, and all they had were
electric lines and mild beam cannons.  Why did Tomino let so many
characters live?  In CCA and 0080, we had few survivors.  And whatever
happened to all the left overs from ZZ?  I heard that Jude was supposed
to show up eventually and fight Hathaway, but no real details.

But then we come to Stardust Memory.

(spoilers ahead)



















Episode 11 spoliers...



last chance...














Wow!  This episode blew me away.  The GP-03 is incredibly powerful.  It could
destroy just about anything from Zeta, especially with those missile
racks and the beam... saber doesn't like quite the right word any more.
Lance?  And where did everyone get those shields?  All of a sudden neither
Gato or Ko could be hit by energy weapons.  Completely arbitrary technology.

BUt the rest of the episode is so cool!  THe Delaz/Cima interaction :)
Bosque Om cameo!  Fleets preparing.  massive combat.  and the Solar System
is back!  All they need now is the colony laser.

But th real point of this is - looks like the cast mortality rate is going
back up!  Anybody who hasn't seen part 11 yet and is reading this should
go get a copy.  

Finally - what exactly did Delaz say to Gato at the end?  My japanese is 
okay, but not up to real heavy duty conversation.  Any info would be nice.

Personally, the main criticism I've heard about Robotech is the bad
voice acting.  It's sort of hard to be an anime fan and to be worried
about synching voice and mouth movements. :P

As some have pointed out, there are a couple of Ranma 1/2 games out there.
First there's the one-on-one fighting Ranma game ala Street Fighter 2.
This is supposed to be released domestically soon.  There are also a couple
of CD-ROM games, I believe.  Don't know what they're about.  The only
Yamato video game I've seen is one for the Gameboy, but that doesn't mean
that's it.

Find a copy of the Anime-related Video Games list.  It has a list of sources.

The "Super Famicom"  (Family Computer) is the Japanese version of the Super
NES.  The cartridges are compatible, I believe, so you don't need to buy
a Super Famicom, but the cases don't fit into the Super NES slot, so it
requires a little creative reconstructive surgery performed on Super Famicom
cartridges.  I don't know about the (forthcoming?) CD-ROM drives for both.
