tried to watch some of it.. it is crap. the characters do look like 12 year olds with the girls having monstrous boob jobs.

Frank Miller is real cartoon art (sin city).

I am surprised that so many of you lust after 12 year old girls with boob jobs.

Odd...

Most of the guys I know that were into anime were single, had acne, still lived with their parents, and worked part-time at a comic/game store, and dressed emo.

Sound like anyone here (MEATWAD)??

NOOOOO

I am single though, working my way through a divorce. The rest dont apply though. I am just trying to relive my childhood and youth since I really didnt have a good one. Partially to blame is the fact I stepped into marriage way too fast and threw away my precoius youth

Cowboy Bebop with subs, tryed watching it dubbed some and it just made the whole story fall apart and not make sense. It has great action scenes, characters with interesting stories that are slowly revealed as the season develops, and the humour isn't for 8 year olds. Only 1 season and a movie that takes place somewhere between some later episodes. Oh and a good soundtrack to boot. 10/10

Samurai Champloo again subs. Made by the same people who did Cowboy Bebop. Interesting blend of some current culture with feudal japanese society, hard to explain. Only 1 season that didn't tie the episodes together quite as well as Bebop but great action. 8/10

I've watched a couple other movies and some episodes from some series but most of it really is garbage.

Oh man, that really sucks. I know what you're going through, my wife and I separated for a year but we reconciled. And I know what you mean about your youth. One word: Camaro.

How about I buy ya a sausage free pizza, cheer you up a bit?

I really liked Urusei Yatsura, I have two boxsets from it. Patlabor is great, Akira, some of the Gundam series. I never really got into Ranma 1/2. I learned everything I need to know about relationships from Urotsukidoji and La Blue Girl.

The story-telling possibilities are great, and there are some really talented anime directors out there.

I'm going off topic. What mods have you done with your Camaro?

DiabloTX · « **Reply #54 on:** January 22, 2008, 02:53:41 PM »

As it sits only a Magnaflow cat-back. My long term plan is to upgrade the LS1 to a factory spec-stock '02 Corvette LS6 (about 400hp), put on a SS hood, and get some 18" C6 chrome wheels. Then I'll be done. I hope.

Treize69 · « **Reply #55 on:** January 22, 2008, 02:57:31 PM »

You'll never be done. You can tell yourself "just one more mod", but theres always "just one more" out there...

back to topic...
The series that I liked

For comic relief

Ranma 1/2 ,
Welcome to the NHK,
Azumanga Daioh (The Animation),
Genshiken, [ Please ] Teacher and [ Please ] Twins

Drama
Kanon

Deadly serious
Death Note

Something odd
Ouran Host Club
Reversed harem. Originally aimed for girls, but I got hooked because of comedy barrage.

Yes, but I'm not a "modder" by nature. The only reason I'm considering the LS6 upgrade is because essentially my engine is a detuned LS6 minus the heads and cam. The rest is purely aesthetic. I'm no quarter-mile addict and I don't street race. But knowing I'm only about 1500 bucks or so from an LS6 is far too appealing to me. If I didn' already have an LS6 intaked, injectors, and a Z06 clutch I wouldn't even be thinking about doing anything to the engine other than a lid (which I have, just have never put it on, long story).

Have you contemplated about getting ightweight flywheels, carbon driveshafts, and double-plate clutch? My educated guess is that thse upgrades can make your car quicker without doing engine mods (feel free to correct me if I'm wrong). I also think your engine already makes good power/torque in such a compact package.

No. It came with an aluminum driveshaft though.
