Kenshin_Himura_

What sort of anime style character would I be? Well lets see... - I'd lose a little weight^_^; And I'd keep my height of about 6 feet 2 inches - My hair I would change to black (I mean, I don't really find my brown hair very interesting-_-). Maybe my hair would glow a dark blue or red if I was pissed^_^ - My eyes, ahhh I'd probably have my regular bluish ice eyes that generally look empty, unless I am excited/happy, and change to look like rolling red fire when I am pissed, or glowing blue fire when I am just starting to get angry^_^ - I'd have a samurai style katana, it would be magical perhaps, unbreakable and I can have it either in lightning based and throw sparks and it would shock anyone who got to close to it, it would also shock any metal it got near to (like enemy swords, and blow up guns because of gunpowder) and the ultimate attack of that style would be it would charge when hit by lightning and would shock the enemies I slash it at. The fire based version would alight the sword in flame, burn anything it touched, and possibly melt/erode enemy weapons. The ice based version would basically freeze enemies and I could use it to make the floor slippery^_^. now THAT is a helluva sword^_^ - I'd have a sort of a jet black trench coat, which would not only serve to look cool (I would think) but would also hide my cool samurai style sword, as well as two semi-automatic guns perhaps, and some shuriken stars^_^ Modern Ninja - I would like to be able to move fast, like kenshin and be an expert with my weapons^_^ - As for my character, he would be slightly broad shouldered and slightly muscular (but as I said, still fast^_^) I wasn't too descriptive about my actual character, but I think these abilities are cool^_^

Sweetreyes Reminded me of the females in GTO^_^ Oh they are all so hot^_^ Urumi is so smart, I like smart girls, but she would make me feel like an idiot-_- I mean seriously 200+ IQ is a bit much, I'd have a hard time relating with her as mine is a good 75+ points less then that, but aside from that, she has cool eyes (two different colours^_^), and the mean things she did was merely a sort of way to act out. Fuyutsuki from GTO is hot too, though I'd have to be a bit older to date her ^_^; Botan from Yu Yu Hakusho MAY be hundreds of years old for all I know^_^; but she sure doesn't show it, she is all giggly and nice, though she gets serious when things get tough. As I am sure most of you know, there are just so many cute/hot/attractive anime characters it is hard to choose just a few^_^

This is a toughie. Sooo many I could pic, now which girls... *note: Not necessarily in this order. Rei of evangelion - (I admit, am a sucker for that type of girl^_^; ) Shinobu of love hina - (Same sort of situation ^_^; ) Belldandy - (Such a cute innocent girl with heart of gold^_^) Motoko of Love hina - (Sounds like an interesting girlfriend, but I am not sure if I can live with having a body that looks like swiss cheese, I'm not keitaro you know! I can't take the brunt of a sword attack-_- ) Hand maid May? - (Not sure if I dig the maid outfit though, her personality is great though^_^) Lastly...urmmm...I like most anime/manga girls^_^; botan, keiko...ahhh pretty much date any half decent female anime character around my age lol^_^; (don't assume i am a pervert, though it most probably is true...)

I myself generally stick to shonen but as anime isn't about limiting yourself...I watched it because one of my friends really likes it too^_^ I thought it was pretty good. Wow, I don't want to think of what that cost-_- . Yep, interesting story methinks^_^ I think lots of people should give it a try, it is a light hearted sort of anime^_^

Tsukasadoru is supposedly meaning to rule, to govern, to administer according to my computer dictionery, about mimiru I dunno can't find anything on that name sorry.

I did a little searching on [url]http://www.animewebturnpike.com/[/url] and I came up with something I think looks good enough, I havn't really taken a in-depth look at it but, try this [url]http://arlongpark.osgurus.com/[/url] You may also want to look up one piece on the anime web turnpike's Web-page listing, searching makes it easy, but if you can't do it, just go under anime/manga series and pick the one that has an 0 (for One Piece) simple enough. I hope this helps^_^

I havn't seen very many episodes, I own the first dvd, but I have only seen one other then that, Cry or is it Agony? Anyway it is the one that comes right after the last episode on the First DVD. I like the series well enough, but I don't really follow it, I prefer GTO, Love Hina manga, and lots of others, I'd say that this series is around number 10-15 on my list. Good enough, but there is a lot better ones out there. Interesting enough story to it though. It is another coward turning into hero type of main character, not that that is bad outright, but the guy really annoys me from time to time. I like then ending English theme, but other then that I prefer Subbed. What about the rest of you?

In the case of anime titles you may want to see, try Ghost in the Shell, its a great science fiction type of anime movie with a hot android girl who gets naked from time to time^_^ Also, you may want to try ninja scroll, its a kind of an action-fantasy with master sword fighters, demons and the like. If you want something less serious, yeah you should try Hand maid may, Chobits(these two are rather similar in a sense that the female character is a android doll^_^ ), Ah my goddess, Or neon Genesis Evangelion like [B]Ani-Freak[/B] suggested. Of these, I'd say Evangelion is probably the easiest to get ahold of, meaning it is most popular. You may also want to try out Rurouni Kenshin (Sword fighting action^_^), Escaflowne, Great Teacher Onizuka, or Inu-Yasha. In short, there are so much anime out there, you wouldn't have difficulty finding good ones worth your money and then some^_^ You may also want to try Manga, such as .hack//Legend of Twilight, Love Hina (if you like watching a guy get into all sorts of trouble usually involving either exams, or perverted situations, but this manga also has comedic/serious love stuff). I could go on and on about this, but I think you should just go watch some anime and read manga instead of this text here^_^

It sounds interesting, but what is the story itself? Whats the mission? I myself have taken loads of monetary related risks. I buy before I try heh^_^; This includes Anime, Vid games, and pretty much anything. Not the greatest thing to do when you don't exactly have a lot of money to begin with-_-; But in most cases, things have worked out well enough, especially anime^_^. I hadn't even heard of Ghost in the Shell or GTO when I bought those using my birthday/X-mas money. After watching those, I really got into anime, so in otherwords, my risks brought me to anime^_^.

I hear it is supposed to come out around the middle of november. The 15th or the 18th. I have a little information [spoiler]The two character, which are sisters the main character feeling great need to protect the other since the other has a problem with her leg, it is twisted. They find themself in a situation by themselves, plus a few ghosts etc. One of them will end up betraying the otherone, but not by choice and having them killed. The killer was under a spell. From what I have seen, very cute female main characters (like there is any other kind? ^_^[/spoiler] well thats the information, some of it anyway that I have found at [url]www.gamespot.com[/url]

I'll try virtualdub then^_^ Thanks for the site Azurewolf^_^. I dunno how good I'll be with it, but I'll try my best at it^_^

**note: Part is a bit off topic** I watched the first 2 fansubs myself, but I was totally running out of room...so I deleted em'-_-. I deleted quite a few good fansubs due to lack of resources. Anyway, I have volumes 2-9 or something like that^_^. I also have a 3-11 of shonen jump, and one Cyberdolls manga (I didn't like the fact it wasn't writting in anime format, that is right to left) In regards to Love Hina, it is funny, a bit repetitive, but funny. There quite a few hot springs scenes, but yeah one of the big driving forces is the romantic subplots. Without the romantic part, I would have been bored of the repetetive scenes where Keitaro Urashima sees things he isn't supposed to eh heh^_^; I really like the manga, though the anime is great too^_^ Some of the characters have charm and qualities like with Shinobu and her easily flustered self, and Motoko with her ahhh somewhat feudal japan view of life (she is a swords master and has many traits of the samurai). Ok, sorry about giving away little tidbits, but I am not certain how to black it out and anyway, it doesn't really give much away^_^

[QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Mimmi [/i] [B][COLOR=chocolate]ah, yes. the devils fruit. thankyou for the lecture. since I watch the german dub it is sometimes difficult for me to translate. must learn to communicate better [SIZE=1]*makes mental note*[/SIZE] the chop chop fruit was eaten by Buggy the Clown, right? I've heard that there's at least 140 episodes. are there more than that ? - Mimmi[/color] [/B][/QUOTE] Yeah, it was Buggy the clown. And in the case of the lecture you are welcome^_^. In the case of the number of episodes, I am not sure though I think that number is right but as I said, none too sure sorry. I also hear there is supposed to be a game based on One Piece for either the PS2 or PS1, I don't remember for sure though. I also know there is at least one, one piece movie. I think I'd be very glad for a US version of the game and the movie:D

I actually have to favourite moments, one in one of the Samurai X movies (something about the Meiji (sp?) revolution) and in that one is where after that guy who was also a great swordsman was shot by one of his 'allies' and kenshins hair starts glowing and he nearly kills the man, going as far as turning the sharp edge of his sword forward, but he stops himself at the last minute, but hits the guy really hard^_^. The Rurouni Kenshin fave is actually the first scene, where Kaoru runs after kenshin, and he does a cool jump...right into a barterers stand (not sure what it was) it was halarious, even more so in the Manga version^_^. She was like 'This is the legendary batousai who killed so many people?' she looks at him and is like 'no'. Funny when you read it^_^.

I thought the movie was rather good, however I liked Kiki's delivery Service, Castle in the Sky, and Princess Mononoke better. I currently have the DVD of the Spirited Away, Kiki's Delivery Service, and Castle in the Sky. I have an english dub of Princess Mononoke taken off TV. I prefer the Subbed versions of all my DVD's, though the dub of Princess mononoke was good^_^ I would recommend all of these anime movies to any fan, even some that arn't^_^. I watched mononoke about 15 times at least ^_^; I liked it that much. The DVD extras of ones that I have are very limited, though the storyboards are interesting and how Spirited away also has a few other extras, like what work was like when making Spirited. I borrowed a Mononoke DVD from the library, it didn't have really any extras except for commentary and trailer I think-_-.

I think they are mainly good if not done improperly. I myself have never made an amv, I have no software to-_- . I have a few which I found to be pretty good like "When I grow Up" a rurouni Kenshin AMV, there are also a ton of DBZ amv's, I have a few of those. I also have another one that doesn't contain lyrics, but is very unique in my opinion, it has one main screen, and 3 smaller ones to the side showing videos of the Past screens (parts of the amv you have already seen) another smaller version of the main screen called the present, and the last small screen is the future screen, parts you havn't seen yet. The amv ends with The matrix theme and the title is "MusicVideo-JamesNewtonHoward-PastPresentFuture"

In the case of the gum gum fruit. it is also called the devil fruit as a general term. It is a gigantic berry. This berry can be sold for a high price...I think 100 million berries or something like that? Anyway, there was more then one type of Devil fruit, for instance the chop chop fruit, which allows the person to break into pieces and makes the person immune to cuts. Luffy can be cut/poked by very sharp objects like knife or pins, but bullets don't harm him. He has several moves this luffy (that I know of) Gum Gum Rocket - Jump up very high Gum Gum Balloon - Expand like a balloon he has several others, but I don't remember their exact names. He can punch from very far away and fall from great distances without getting hurt

I doubt that it will ever get to the level of DBZ or even DB. But it could possibly exist. Sometimes I "Power Up" and I can hit harder/faster but it doesn't last. I kind of do a sort of stretching motion and try to force energy out. It sounds weird, but I get a bit more powerful for a few seconds, then am tired for a few minutes. Well, thats my opinion.
