Okay, this is the third and last manga I've been drawing currently. Here goes: Whisper is about a nameless girl who is taking a train ride home from collage. When she arrives home she discovers that her parents are not alive, not really. They act emotionlessly, and are almost like empty husks. After a week of living in their house, the girl finally gives up on humanizing her parents and walks outside. Waiting for her is a young, beautiful, floating little girl in a dress that seems to hang off of her, concealing her feet. The little girl is totally unresponsive, so the girl walks to the front yard to find her two parents with huge smiles on their faces, facing up to the sky. She whites out, and when she wakes up, her parents are dead and the little girl is sitting on the fence that marks the property line. When she finally goes off the property she realizes that her parents had kept her prisoner, and she begins to explore, finding no trace of human life except her, the floating little girl, and a strange man who seems to narrate everything that happens around him. Now the girl, the little girl who seems to talk in a way that weaves a net of riddles, and the entirely unhelpful narrator go to look for something...or anything, really. (Oh, and I left everyone nameless purposefully)

Thank you, it's been driving me insane. I really wanted to know when the next volume would finally come out.

And now back to the life and times of Irvine Kinneas. (A Hallmark special production(tm)(hm)(C)(R) and any other copyright law peice of crap we can dig up. do not watch if you have a history of seizures or heart disease, if you are on medication, or if there is a phone that operates on 900 MhZ in the room. May cause stigmata in Mexicans. Do not sing along to the theme song or you will be dead very, very fast. May cause joint pain in the elderly(provided elderly qualifies as one month old and higher). You will feel a sudden urge to stand up and scream 'Queer as FOLK'. Resist this at all costs. Do not take any material from this, for we reserve the right to eat you with a power tool if you do. Do not mixe with Zoloft and remember...Big Brother is watching you.)

Heh, I read this far. Now, MORE DUBBEH NEWS I found that I preferred the English voice for Chloe in Noir(I've watched more of it now) to the japanese, but I like Kirika's better in japanese. My feelings about Mirielle and her wonderful preformance have stayed the same, although I kind of lost respect for Shelley Calene-Black when I found she was in the Rune Soldier dub. Oh, and Amanda Winn Lee and Wendee Lee are different people? O_o(has been looking on ANN)!? For some reason I thought they were one in the same. I mean, Nancy Makuhari sounds almost exactly like Faye...but a bit more nasal.

Okay, I have the first volume planned out. Oni arrives at her new school, already irked at the fact that her skirt tears when the wind blows and that the 'fingertip length' rule means nothing at her new school. After her entire gym class finds out she doesn't like to catch cards (the national pasttime where she is), chaos ensues. 'Oni doesn't like to catch cards!' 'Oni doesn't like to catch cards!' 'Oni doesn't like to catch cards!' 'Herby doesn't like to make toys! Wait, what?' After making the nasty little discovery that is Blob the Bob in her jell-o, she a monster named 'W' attacks. She rushes into the drama club's costume closet and finds nothing but a Gothic Lolita dress looking like a certain Robin Senna's. Hoping beyond hope that it fit and that it would work, she dons it. Enjoying her new power over flame, she sets off to do het duty... Yes, she has gone to [B]BurnUpW[/B] !

Okay, another manga I'm working on, the second of the three that dominate my daily life. This, folks, is kleptomania, and as opposed to 'Gothic Magical Girl Oni-chan' and 'Whisper', this is an action manga, let there be no doubt. Plot Summary: Jackie, Joan, and Jerome are a trio of theives-for-hire who aptly (and uncreatively) bill themselves as 'The J Trio' Jackie is an expert hacker descended from high society. Joan is their 'meatbag', or, more aptly, the one they use to take out the gaurds. Jerome is the guy they use to get past any and all security contraptions (security cameras, motion detectors, swinging blades of death, ect.). One day the government comes a-knocking, and they discover they have a choice: They will be killed for their crimes against society, or they can join the government. It was an obvious choice. After they go to work for the government, they are sent to steal something from the Vatican. Before they go, Jackie find out something she shouldn't have, and suddenly, her family dies. What did she find out, and how does this all relate o the Dead Sea Scrolls?

Anime Your DVDs and what you think of them
Readordie replied to 2010DigitalBoy's topic in Otaku Central
I have...wow. I have more than 20. I wasn't expecting so much. okay, this ain't gonna be alphabetized... Noir, 19 episodes out of 26: Wow, this just makes me GIDDY with joy. Big eyes, big guns, big...I'll stop while I'm ahead. I love this anime with all my heart, although the digital omake in the first DVD could have been less explicit. Worth every cent. Cowboy Bebop, complete: It's Bebop. Enough said. Read or Die OAV: I love it for the same reasons I love Noir. Princess Mononoke: Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki... Spirited Away: Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki... Laputa, Castle in the Sky(on tape): Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki Miyazaki... Bubblegum Crisis, complete but on tape: Wow, I have a collection normally featuring strong women in tight uniforms, don't I? Rune Soldier: See description of Bubblegum Crisis Cowboy Bebop, the Movie(on tape): It's Bebop, again, 'nuff said Witch Hunter Robin, episodes 1-9: Beautiful visuals and music, but not enough action Evangelion, episodes 1-4(P.S., I've seen more episodes than that): Nice artwork and characters, lacklustre animation. The animation picks up for battles, however. -
I ordered DECAF!

Anyone ever read this manga? It's by CLAMP and I have yet to find anyone who has read it. Also, as question #2, is there more than one volume out?

Okay, I have an idea for a manga, and I've already got some pages made. It's called 'Gothic Magical Girl Oni-chan' yes, I spelled 'Oni' right, it's a play on words. Anyway. It's basically a generic anime spoof, semifocused on magical girl anime. Plot Summary: Oni has the ability to gain the power of any anime character whose costume she dons. After being rejected from the 'Xavier School for Children with Extraordinary Abilities' for getting the school blown up in what was to be later known as the 'Cyclops Incident'. Her family puts her in another magical school skipping over 'Hogwash' as the airfair was a bit too pricey for their tastes. After shipping her to 'Saint Sakura's School for Girls with Extraordinary Abilities(All Of Whom Happen To Be Catholic)', her parents run off leaving her with an amorphus 'Magical Pet' named Blob the Bob, who reports himself to be 'Cafeteria Jell-o That Escaped'. Across the street from 'SSSfGwEA(AOWHTBC)' lies 'Saint Sayoran's School for Complimentary Gay Guys' because, as Blob wittily points out, no magical girl manga is complete without a gay guy. Greg is a closeted straight guy at 'SSSfCGG'. He's very talented with a needle and thread and makes all of Oni's anime costumes for her, from Robin Senna to Nancy Makuhari, to Kirika Yuumura, no anime is safe and nothing is held sacred from Oni, Greg, and Blob's droll spoofery as she battles her way through hordes of monsters that seem to materialize out of nowhere. But where IS nowhere, exactly? Not concerned the slightest about the sake of the world and driven through pure curiosity, Oni sets out to find out where these monsters are coming from, and why they keep coming.

Noir really did have an amazing Dub. Shelly Calene-Black was riveting in her coldness in her part as Mirielle. I even preferred her over the sub. Actually, as a whole, I prefer the dub over the sub. I thought Rune Soldier's dub was atrocious. It turned the mildlly funny into...just...eew, and turned the halarious into passable. Hearing Louie and Merill scream 'BONZAI BONZAI BONZAI BONZAI' is a lot funnier than hearing them titter 'we did it we did it we did it'

Easily the Sylph from Tales of Symphonia. I had a horrible time beating those three, because the one witht he sheild kept getting in my way and the sword one kept halfing my life in one hit.
-
I think it's a pretty funny show. The animation style is...interesting, and the 'misadventures' they get into are pretty funny. Their songs are good, I like them a lot. And you're right, they are like Starfire and Raven. I just didn't notice before.

I think they were both enthralling games in their own right. I think they were equal, but for different reasons. Both had great graphics FOR THEIR TIME, so you can't really compare the two because they came out years apart. I liked X-2's gameplay better, but X wins out on plot. So, they're even. But either way, Tales of Symphonia and Baten Kaitos sets them both to shame.

[quote name='Dan Rugh']Yeah... I bet all that just came off the top of your head.... Why didn't you just copy and paste the Anime News Network voice actor list? Anyway, the topic of this thread is best/worst dubs, not your favorite voice actors.[/quote] There's...an anime news network? I just know this because I just study this stuff almost religiously. I hit the pause button when watching the credits roll on an anime I have on tape/DVD. Also, all of Kari Wahlgren's roles sound alike(Robin sounds EXACTLY like Haruko...minus the insanity, not to mention how much Raine and Cher sound alike...). I'm obsessed with...Anime...Dubology. The only thing I learned with help was Wendee Lee's many...many names. Oh, and Veronica Taylor also IS Ash from pokemon.
