For some reason I find it incredibly hard to believe that Usagi has that many books in the first place!

And several people attribute the explosion in AnimeGAF activity to your arrival. Are you proud, or do you feel like you've created a monster?

I don't think it really makes any sense to think that a community of people will develop around something because of the activities of one or two people posting.

I feel like there have always been people around who like anime and enjoy discussing it with others but perhaps there wasn't an obvious outlet for that earlier. I am certainly happy to see that so many people now take part in these threads and offer up their opinions and impressions on a regular basis.

I think by posting and breaking the ice on talking about older anime instead of just whats showing now, you opened the doorway to getting more interest in the seasonal thread and anime discussion in general. You certainly seem like the catalyst of growth of animeGAF in general.

How do you feel about Sailor Moon's various transformation themes? They use a combination of orchestral and electric/synthesized music (though mostly orchestral) and I personally believe to pretty great effect.
I want to take this opportunity to once again state how much I love the SM transformation music especially since they gave every character their own vocals and not just sailor moon. (that was on the R movie or S iirc)

I just woke up from an alcohol induced haze to this?

I'm terribly sorry :(
They are DVDs to boot. Yeah I'd go back to sleep and hope they are stolen if I were you.

I didn't either. As a Sailor Moon fan I had to inquire.

I've liked all the ones I've seen so far but I've also only seen a few.
Well you should remember this is DTL, it's probably because there aren't any good brolust characters in it more than anything else and evil female main characters. SM is really an anti-DTL show.

Regarding KyoAni shows, to be honest there is a fair amount of them I haven't seen either. I take it you've seen K-ON? (S1, S2 and Movie)

It's not.

Unfortunately.
Unfortunately? We need ugly art! It makes us appreciate good art all the more. It also makes smashing avatars.

What game is that?
 
There's no justifying it. No way. This is pure stupidity.

Actually i just finished reading Vol 3 & 4 ..and she does have a reason ... i was kinda worried there that i needed to know ...

It seem that what we get next week is a side story that the author wrote in a later volume

Man, there are some great fights coming in a second season ( i guess there will be a second season since it seems to sell correctly )

( i should try the PSp/ps3 game in september )

Have you guys ever watched anime so bad it made you physically ill?

No, but years ago I watched one episode of Hana Yori Dango on a fansubbed VHS. I proceeded to tear out the tape, burn it in the fireplace, and smashed the casing. As a precaution, you see.

Rurounizel couldn't handle the shoujo.

I've seen a couple episodes and it is VERY shoujo.
But I have the series Saiunkoku Monagatari and that's pretty shoujo as well complete with "bishies". But its a good series too. Great art style and use of color. Excellent music too.

Actually I'm usually a total shoujo lover. Many of my favorite shows fall squarely into shoujo like Marmalade Boy, Princess Tutu, Nodame Cantabile, Cardcaptor Sakura, Magic Knight Rayearth, Aishiteruze Baby, etc.

But Hana Yori Dango, probably the first show I've ever watched where after one episode I literally hated every single character on screen. They were either off-the-chart jerks, or just plain stupid.

These are all adorable shows. I can fully understand you liking those.

Kuroyukihime is mega nuclear hnnngh with her butterfly persona and antennae hair.
I must have a figurine of her. This is my new mission in life.
Also, I'm hooked. Onto episode 2.

After reading the premise, I just KNEW this show was gonna set up a tragic ending. I avoided it because I had (and still have) a feeling that my heart couldn't take it. :(

It may not end as badly as you think...
Actually, I found it to be one of my favorite endings.
It does get rough though. There is mega-drama in there. But Mitsuki is so cute. You would love her.

Yeah, I really like the artwork. One of these days I'll get over my fear.
