 Things have come to a sorry state of events. I finished my last exam yesterday, am packing and going home today, and to top it all off, this term I finish the last course for my degree which means one thing, easy access to r.a.a is going, going gone..... It's been great (mostly :) reading what everyone has had to say about anime in general and shows in specific and frankly I'm gonna miss it.


Zoner and Gryph: THe stories have been great, and I'll get my hands on UF4 somehow.

To everyone else writing fanfic: I don' think i've found any that was a waste of disk space yet.

   To everyone else; It's been a blast, and if I'm lucky, ...

I'LL BE BACK.......

(I should still have an account on the mainframe around here until the end of APril, so any mail I get I may b a little slow in answering, I'd have to be visiting up here first).

Yes sir!  Believe it or not, I managed to get the rest of the story done.
Yeah, it's a few months overdue, but better late than never!

Here is the deal:  I'm going to repost the entire story, including the
recently completed part 3, which is split up into three subparts (each
about 2000+ lines long; I didn't want to go into doing part 4 or 5, so I
just went into "subparts").   I also did a little rework to part 1, so
don't be suprised if it seemed a "little different".

For those that have never seen my story before, I decided to write up
a "promo" similar to the ones that are seen on TNG, and hopefully it
should explain what this is all about.

At the end is a "credits" page, and some other ramblings about BubbleGum
Trek.  Enjoy the story!

Venus Wars the manga, or the movie?  I assume the art in the US comic book 
was taken directly from the manga, as are most translated comics/manga, and
the mecha (or vehicle in this case) designs in the comic are more than a little different than in the movie, at
least the bikes are.

Prefer the movie, myself. (imho)

Hmmm... I got mine for $24.95 Canadian which is a good price.  What makes it a
good deal is that I don't have to pay tax. (got this deal going with the
comic shop).  Anyways, the SRP is $19.95 US just to let you know.

   One thing that amused me in USMC's Project A-ko sub was that in the
end credits, A-ko, B-ko, and C-ko were spelled "Eiko", "Biko", and
"Shiko".  So, apparently it's only coincidence that when spoken their
names happen to sound like "A-ko", "B-ko", and "C-ko".  I heard once
that "D" was spoofing Vampire Hunter "D", but I have no evidence to
support this.

Rumiko Takahashi is thinking of coming to an American anime convention to
"see her fans".  She has not locked down her decision on IF she is
coming and if so, to which one.  If fans are interested in seeing her,
it is critical that the fans conduct a letter writing campaign ASAP to 
convince her that she has a large fan base here and tell her which
convention you are looking to come to.  However, for private reasons,
I'm talking about letters going out in the next two days!!!  

Just write a short note saying that you are a fan of hers and that you 
would like to see her at AX or AY or AZ convention.  Nothing fancy, but
volume and speed are quite important!  (If you Aussies could tell
her that you are coming over, all the better.)  We should keep this
off the net for a few days, but get those letters out!  50 cents for
1st class AIR MAIL to Japan.  The address is:

Rumiko Takahashi
c/o Shogakukan
2-3-1 Hitotsubashi
Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo 101
Japan

If you are going to mail in letters asking her to come to AX, I would
appreciate it if you stressed which convention you are going to and
emphasize where you are from to stress the diversity of our convention.

OK.  If he really does return to time #1, then neither he nor she remembers
the events 3 through 11.  So he's doomed to repeat them over and over again
in an infinite loop.

OK.  Well, Kyousuke remembers.  But, Madoka doesn't.  Why not?  Doesn't the
second kiss make more sense if she does remember?  How do you explain the
affection at the end of the anime/manga if Madoka doesn't remember?

We could ruin the spirit of the whole thing, and say, "If Kyosuke chose to
come back to time #1, why doesn't he see himself sleeping under the tree?"

Let's not.  It's just a fun romantic little anime.

No, no, no.  Everyone knows "Ramen Noodles" are named after the famous
"Ramen Rider" character in Ben Dunn's "Ninja High School".

It would be great to see her come, no matter which convention!
(Unless the BODs have agreed to kiss & make up so there's only one.)

Get the letters out, boys & girls!

Rumiko Takahashi is thinking of coming to an American anime convention to
"see her fans".  She has not locked down her decision on IF she is
coming and if so, to which one.  If fans are interested in seeing her,
it is critical that the fans conduct a letter writing campaign ASAP to
convince her that she has a large fan base here and tell her which
convention you are looking to come to.  However, for private reasons,
I'm talking about letters going out in the next two days!!!

Just write a short note saying that you are a fan of hers and that you
would like to see her at AX or AY or AZ convention.  Nothing fancy, but
volume and speed are quite important!  (If you Aussies could tell
her that you are coming over, all the better.)  We should keep this
off the net for a few days, but get those letters out!  50 cents for
1st class AIR MAIL to Japan.  The address is:

Rumiko Takahashi
c/o Shogakukan
2-3-1 Hitotsubashi
Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo 101
Japan

If you are going to mail in letters asking her to come to AX, I would
appreciate it if you stressed which convention you are going to and
emphasize where you are from to stress the diversity of our convention.

Mike

I thought it was supposed to be $19.99. Anyway, it's just a suggested retail
price.
