[quote name='BlackTigerGurl][FONT=Comic Sans MS][COLOR=Navy] So....their going to brang bak F.M.A. right? And what happened on episode 26? I think i missed it.[/Font'][/Color][/quote] FMA and GITS are coming off the air after episode 26 to be replaced by Champloo and Metropolis (and maube Paranoia Agent.) FMA will move to weeknights and play reruns. Both shows will be back on Saturdays with new episodes around NovemberSamurai Champloo has 26 episodes total (episode 26 airs this coming Saturday in Japan). It will play in its entirety in one run. as for episode 26 [spoiler]Ed and Al have been tracked down by their former master. She is angry that her apprentices went against her teachings and degraded themselves by becoming dogs of the military. Back at Eastern headquarters, Mustang has officially received his transfer orders to start work in Central City. As a farewell gift, Mustangs requests that he be allowed to take along some of his subordinates. His request is approved. On a train headed back to Dublith, Ed and Al are tied together while their teachers sit in a diner eating. Winry is surprised that their teacher is so beautiful, but Ed tells her that they have met before. They officially became her apprentices at Resembool. Realizing that studying on their own had its limits, the brothers decide to seek a teacher. That night, there is a heavy rain that may collapse the river banks. The two head out to help and using their alchemy they seek to repair the leak in the sandbag dam. It is here that they witness the power of a woman who, using no transmutation circle, constructs a barrier that saves the river bank. Impressed by her skills, Ed and Al beg to become her apprentices. She asks to borrow the two for trial training to see if they are worth being taught alchemy and if they have the talent. All around the East, many of Mustang's subordinates are receiving phone calls. Assembling in his office, Mustang informs the five members that they will be transferred to Central City with him. Finally arriving in Dublith, Ed and Al get the chills when they think of what will happen to them. Watching Izumi-sensei, the brothers learn an important lesson. They should fix whatever they can with their own hands instead of relying on alchemy. After fixing a toy train for a group of boys, Manny comes running to her say that Chico is in trouble. The cat is on the roof with a dog barking from below. Ed scales the wall and see that Chico has given birth to a litter of kittens but has lost her life in the process. Suddenly, a kitten slips and tumbles off the roof, but Ed saves it using alchemy. Saddened by Chico's death, Manny is told by Izumi-sensei that everything in this world flows in a continuous circle. Alone with Izumi-sensei, Ed and Al face their teacher once again. Realizing that Al's armor body is empty and Ed's arm and leg are made of auto mail, she asks if Ed and Al have seen "it". She asks to hear what happened, and Ed explains that they transmutated their mother. After taking a beating, Ed and Al are hugged by Izumi-sensei. [/spoiler] does anyone read MY post :flaming:

Xenosaga fighting stytem was off by millions, so i took the game back. it was to slow and boring to play throught. You had to read like 15 pargrafs, go through 3 hour cut-sceans, just to play a game with clunckey controls, and lacking gameplay. Not wroth it.

cool, Good job Ozymandius Jones. anyway since where talking about hellsing banners, can some one make be a banner of anderson in the chapter "D1" (you know when he kills those guards)

Ff-X was a mistake. The reason FF-X2 was so much better then FF10, is FF10 had pretty crappy characters. I got about three fourths of the way into that game and I just couldn't take Titus's dumbness anymore. Another thing that really pissed me off about FF10, is isn't Titus suppossed to be a superstar at that underwater soccer game? Well, when you finally have to control Titus and play it, he sucks! Final Fantasy X-2(on the other hand) was a Shakespearean masterpiece. You just have to look past the silliness on the surface, deeper into the true makeup of the game. It's one of the deepest and most complex stories I've yet seen. Therefore it go's to FF-X2

[QUOTE]I'll most likely end up buying the console, hopefully Microsoft will overprice it, and then we can wait for a massive bomb in price again.[/QUOTE] yup, 600 i beat will be the price anyway if you seen pictues of the Ps3 its already been proven FAKE. Apparantly it was made guys from some magazine... Mirco pushed the limits on what is consitered on console. It bulit a computer and called it a console. Sony I guess isn't pushing any limits, yet they still suck with the load times. I only have one game GT Pisses me off, waiting for this that and everything else More shots of the Xbox 360 thingymajig, though [url] http://pictures.xbox-scene.com/4/xbox360/remote.jpg[/url] [url]http://pictures.xbox-scene.com/4/xbox360/37943.jpg[/url] I read somewhere that you were able to customize your dash.

[QUOTE=Baron Samedi] So, what do you all think of it? It certainly looks nice. I probably wouldn't buy it, especially due to possible pricings, and the fact that I don't play many console games. Anyone planning on a purchase?[/SIZE][/QUOTE] No. New gen video games are going to cost $60, so i hate to see how much this will cost. Back to topic Personally I think the Xbox 360 looks ulgy,the Xbox 360 reminded me of a stormtrooper. Once I get one I'll put a neato sticker on it "Stormtrooper certified!". I'll probably buy a Nintendo first, like always. I can already tell you that the Revolution is going to be more powerfull then the Xbox 360. Next to that I heard that the PS3 is up to 3 times faster than the Xbox 360, BUT all that processing power is not all used for games. A part is reserved for like uh... Multimedia stuff... Talking about that, I think the only purpose of the UMD slot is to put media on it, I really don't think it'll be able to play PSP games... That would be a ripoff imo. EDIT:I was just reading some stuff and talking to some people and my faith in Nintendo has completely restored. Wait and see at E3 10 days from now to see what I mean! Man this is going to be so awesome! Oh, I also learned why Nintendo is being so secretive about there console... Apparantly when Microsoft figured out that the Revolution was going to have standard wireless controllers, they implemented the same feature. O_o Srry for all the OT

Round 1 ----------------- Ok, in your opinion which is better the psp or ds For starters the DS has longer battery life then the PSP but the PSP has more[better] launching titles. I dont wanna play no mario.Also to my understanding, PSP dosnt have Online play, but the DS(using bluetooth technoligy) can play online or use Pictochat from 100 feet away from you. But psp price may be at 150 at launch. So Ds has convineince with its system, but Psp has what matters most, good games.I am voting for the Psp because 1. The PSP first of all, kills the Nintendo DS with graphics. The DS in graphics can be compared to about between N64 and Dreamcast graphics, which is good. However, the PSP is between PSX and PS2 type graphics, so who do you think wins this battle? 2. Battery Life. This is the Nintendo Fanboy's biggest piece of fuel against the PSP. When tested by PSM magazine, it was found that with the backlight on Max, the volume on max, and playing Ridge Racer, the most graphical game on the PSP to date, the battery life lasted approx. 4 hours and 28 minutes. However, when the backlight was turned to medium and the vol. on low, the battery life lasted 5 hours and 31 minutes. Ha! 5 hours! Now, who other than DS Fanboys, can complain about playing for 5 hours? The only way you can play a game for 17 hours is if you are an idiot with no life. The rest of us can stick with PSP thank you. 3.PSP Flaws. Now DS fanboys, get ready to have your socks knocked off. The biggest problems I've have heard were about the square button and the UMD disc problem. Let me address them. The president of Sony stated that due to an intentional design flaw, the square button is too close the game screen, and the sensitivity of the square button is low since the actual sensor for the button is under the screen, not the button itself. The other problem is that if the PSP is twisted while applying pressure to it, the UMD door will unclasp, causing the UMD disc to fly out of the PSP. To both of those problems listen to this: Out of the 500,000 PSP units that were sold, only 4,800 PSPs were returned back because of problems. And guess what? Most of them were returned because of air bubbles and dead pixels on the screen. Not the square button or UMD problem. Get your facts straight DS Fanboys. 4.Memory and Other Things. To start off, yes you need to buy Memory sticks to save things on the PSP. But $80? No no no. That's if you buy the Sony brand memory sticks. A 1GB memory stick from Sony could cost you about $200. A MadCatz or Pelican stick could cost you almost 3/4 less of that price. Again, get your facts straight people. The PSP will also have: -internet browser that can be downloaded from Sony to acess the internet with your PSP, -A built-in Microphone to translate English to any other language you see fit - MP3 and MPEG 3 and 4 playback to be able to play both MP3s and Movies on your PSP. - A program called Image Converter 2 to be able to save images from any other Sony brand Digital camera or video recorder to your PSP. - What's this about online play? Yes, the PSP will feature Wi-Fi play with the push of a button to play with up to 16 other players depending on the game. Ridge Racer- 8 players NBA Street Remix 2 - 4 players NFL Street 2 - 6 players NFS: Rivals- 6 players Coded Arms: 16 players in Deathmatches Tales of Eternia- 4 players in RPG The number will increase when more games come out. But also, the Wi-Fi will allow PSP users to access Wi-Fi hotspots to play over greater distances with the PSP then the DS. TheWi-Fi will allow internet access as well. Round 2 ---------------------- The PSP will be $250, not $150. As I mentioned the battery life is shorter. The PSP will be $250, not $150. As you mentioned the battery life is shorter. And the weak disk door is a design flaw, it obviously affects more than a handfull of systems, and not really anything to return the system about. Many systems have had problems with dead pixels. As said the Square button has low sensitivity, due to the fact the Sony was unwilling to decrease the size of the screen, or move the button to a location that it would not be an issue.And the Sony CEO even had said something along the lines of, "It wasn't a mistake. There may be people who complain about it, but that's something users and game developers will have to adapt to." I have also heard of issues of Overheating in the early stages.(possibly worked out now.) And that at least in the Japanese models that some people were encountering the system randomly erasing their Memory cards.(Again possibly fixed by now.) IMO the DS is a nice compact system, with vast improvements over their previous versions. And with the significantly lower cost than the PSP, would be more affordable to younger audiences. The download feature is useful, so parents would only need to purchase one game if the children wished to play multiplayer. In the end I will most likely purchase both(already have a DS), mainly due though to the PSPs playing properties. But due in part to Sony's history of bugs during launch, I will wait a year, and possibly a price reduction until I purchase one. Round 3 When exactly are you going to play a game for 17 hours? To the casual gamer, 2-4 hours is enough.You don't think that Sony hadn't heard the complaints from America and tried to correct some of the problems before shipping to America? And another thing, read every review about the PSP that has come out in an American gaming magazine. Not one magazine has complained about the square button or the UMD problem. The DS is not a highly advanced piece of equipment, and therefore does not have anything to worry about. The DS was built for ******* 5 year olds for God's sake.The internet browser is from Sony itself and will not need a monthly fee to subscribe. Only a PSP and Wi-Fi hotspot will do.PSP does exactly the same thing the DS does in terms of short-length Wi-Fi play. The only time the Wi-Fi hotspots are used, is during Long distance playing and maybe internet browsing(at a internet cafe for example)Also The medai playback that was discussed for the GBA is called the Play-yan. It is essentially a chip that is placed inside a special GBA cartridge that will enable it to play MP3s and MPEG 4 playback. However, the chip, cartridge, USB cable, and other things needed to get the files off of your computer into your GBa are sold seperately and add up to alot of money. Also Nintendo stated that they had no intentions of bringing it to America anytime soon. LOL and as i said befor: It has been announced that Final Fantasy 3( 6 in Japan) will be coming out for the Nintendo DS. Now wait, I said a treat for the PSP users didn't I? Well since DS get FF 3 PSP users get Final Fantasy: Advent Children on UMD, and we also get the remake of FFVII when it comes out OK . got all the deatils (for the people that dont know), so can someone tell me whats better, Psp or DS

Ok in your opinion what kind of post do you like to type read ect. I would prefer a lengthy post with a point then a short post with no actual purpose, like this one. if you don't have the intelligence to finish a post... oh well, I guess you shouldn't respond to it. No big loss there, you probably wouldn't have replied intelligently anyway. some poeple love to write, and have stuff they want to share. some people just love to write. others, just want to share something, or get something off their chest. it isn't a question of letting someone else reply... especially around here... you'll notice things tend to go off topic quickly... or maybe you are running on an idea as its coming off the top of your head... I have a tendency to do that, just write down what comes to mind, which will lead to something else, which will lead to something else... and, so I write what I feel like. I tend to write shorter posts of late though, mainly because I am lazy. Oh andif u tpe lik dis, don't even waste your time here please,This is for people who actually understand the English language.

Welcome to the foums, there are 100 "favorite game" topics, try to use [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/search.php?searchid=56118]Search [/url] anyway my favorite game is Phantom Brave because the game is a stragy, but you have to summon you Phantoms, and they can only stay on the field for some time so every move counts. Edit: i am not the only one that likes the game [img]http://www.penny-arcade.com/docs/gabe/gabe_ps.jpg[/img]

Not really a website but [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gainax[/url] this is the Gainax website but its out of date [url]http://www.gainax.co.jp/top-e.html[/url]

First of all "Dielover" Fanfiction go's [url=http://www.otakuboards.com/forumdisplay.php?f=87] here[/url] anyway i like the story alot. well story making is hard so take your time ~Chaos_Overdose

Twilight_Kioku , you have to understand something, most things people dont know about, will be misjudged. my friends father dosnt want him reading manga because he says "its a comic book, and its a waist of money" My parients say "As long as it doent have porn in it, i can buy it" funny because my mother likes "witch hunter robin" and stuff like that. Funny because, my school is dumb. The lady in charge of reading stuff says we cant read manga, because were cheating areselfs, but the princecable says we can.Most of the time the teachers are telling me to read something thats not manga, but that Moatavates me to bring my manga to school, if we listend to every thing the teachers said, will any of us wear red, when the uniform code is white :D

You dont really have to post long post, when i first came, my post were 2 lines long. This is just something your going to have to get use to. Most of the time you have to Tell why you liked the book you do, it can be a pain, but it makes for a better discussion. You'll see, you just need some time to ajust to your new home :D ~Your friend, Chaos (Xx)

Anyway this is a very basic formula of mine, I need to incorperate with another formular to make it work better (Dont u guys realised my formula is virtually useless other than trying to prove a reliabilty of an particle scource?) Here is what i am trying to think hard, just by determing the visual, absolute and the apparent diameter of a star (Too bad not many telescopes are that powerful) , i am able to derive the diameter of the star and thus, the surface temperature and which catagories it is in (for eg. M1 or G2 etc) This is getting more and more ridiculous... But through a very complicated way i did manage to come out with a long formula to derive a star diameter with the given Visual, Absolute and Apparent diameter (In second arc) knowing that apparent diameter of a star form a right triangle with angle, opposite and hypotenuse, I can derive the diameter of the star for eg from Tan (B/3600) = D / X so that D = X Tan (B/3600) Where D is the real diameter of the object (can be a Star, Nebulas or even Galaxies) B is the apparent diameter in second arc units X is the distance of the object So from my formula, using only Visual and Absolute Magnitude with distance unknown V - A = 2(lgX-lg32.6) / lg2.512 I can make the X as a subject 1st [(V - A) x lg2.512 ] = 2 (lgX-lg32.6) lgX = {[(V - A) x lg2.512] / 2 + lg32.6} therefore X = 10^ [ 0.5(V - A)lg2.512 + lg32.6 ] Combining 2 formula I got a long chain of messy number and symbols D = 10^ {(V - A) x lg2.512] / 2 + lg32.6} Tan(B/3600) and can written as D / Tan (B/3600) = 10^ [ 0.5(V - A)lg2.512 + lg32.6 ] or lg D - lg Tan(B/3600) = 0.5(V - A)lg2.512 + lg32.6 D is the diameter in light-year B is the apparent diameter in second arc V is the Visual Mag. and A is the Absolute Mag However let find out whether it works... Betegeuse is a very good eg as scientist have successfully find out the apparent diameter (B)of the supergiant, to be around 0.054 degree arc... From Space.com, [url]http://www.space.com/scienceastronomy/brightest_stars_030715-10.html[/url] It mention that the star sun at a Visual Mag (V) of 0.5 and from this solstation [url]http://www.solstation.com/x-objects/betelgeuse.htm[/url] it mention that the star has a Absolute Mag (A) of -5.1 and located at 430 lightyear (X) away (Space.com also mention that) ... To show both source are correct at the same time to find the true size of this super giant... we have D / Tan (0.054/3600) = 10^ { 0.5[0.5 - (-5.1)]lg2.512 + lg32.6 } D / Tan (0.054/3600) = 10^ ( 2.8lg2.512 + lg32.6 ) D / Tan (0.054/3600) = 429.8061033 light year As you can see from above D = X Tan (B/3600) X = 430 LY (3 s.f.) Which mean both website are correct and to continue D = 429.8061033 Tan [1.5x10^(-5)] = 1.12x10^(-4) light year (3 sf) The exact diameter of betelgeus is = 1.12x10^(-4) x 299792.458 x 31557600 = 1,064,549,536 km or 764.8 times the diameters of sun... Big ar isnt it Btw that is not just it... The formula can be used to determine the separation distance of an binary star system base on the apparent separation, visual and apparent magnitude of the 2 stars in the system, of course that require more complex calculation as it involved 3D vector diagram... but as long as you get the both the star distance away using this formula and the apparent separation, I guess you can calculate the exact separation of the 2 binary stars by pythagorus therom....

I just read Shinsengumi Imon Peace Maker. In Shinsengumi Imon Peace Maker: When Tetsunosuke was younger his parents were murdered by a Choushuu assasin right in front of him. Since then he?s vowed to take revenge, and to do this he decides the best way is to join the Shinsengumi. They aren?t too keen on having a 10 year old looking 16 year old in the group, but eventually they come around. However, Tetsunosuke wants them to take another step and teach him how to become a ?demon?. In Peace Maker Kurogane: he sees his parents being murdered by a Choushuu assassin right in front of him, he vows with all his heart to become strong enough to take revenge on their killer. It is now 1864, the first year of Genji. Tetsunosuke, now 15, heads to the headquarters of the Shinsengumi with his older brother Tatsunosuke, looking to join the historical group to fulfill his dreams of getting stronger. Little does he realize what he is about to experience by doing so, for in order to join this army, one must forego his humanity and become a demon. There both great, by what i read, and there will be a other sequel when Tetsunosuke older, Right?

I dont know the meaning of life, so i will just my friends meaning of life, you know to post something "I hate to follow one philosophical post with another,but I was just watching one of George Carlin's comedy specials,who is probabley one of the best comedians to ever live,but anyway in he mentioned that he figured out the meaning of life at an early age and the meaning is simply,Don't Die! It realy makes sense,does'nt it?.. Obviously if you have more dogmatic beliefs,this probabley won't fit with you,but realy,its quite profound.It got me thinking,what makes us human? what seperates us from the animals?....Having a language to communicate with.Think about it,the only think seperating an infant from say a donkey is potential,thats it.It can learn to speak and thus communicate.Because we think in language,we can ponder things just like now.If we had no language,we can only rely on our most base human instincts.If a child does'nt learn how to speak a language or is'nt taught any skills which are crucial to the developmental process,he can't evolve mentally.If you've heard of the term,"Feral Child" then you might see where i'm getting.If your not familar with the term just think "Jungle Book" without the talking animals.A Feral Child is one who at an early developmentally stage is cut off from civilization and is forced to live with animals.It happens and its rare they grow to be able to function in society.When you realy think about it,language opened our minds and without it,we would be no different than a common chimp.

[quote name='Lennex3']:animestun[/quote] I know its hard to read, and harder to understand, unless you study in Astronomy and Astrophysic, Well i guess i am not clever in anyway, its just that i am too obsessed in Astronomy and Astrophysic that I find every bits of information regarding this subjects... You just need to know 2 things to derive this formula also... 1st: The order of Magnitude and the different of each units. A 1st Magnitude star is always 2.512 times brighter than a 2nd Mag object, 2nd Mag brighter another 2.512 times than 3rd Mag. and so on... Therefore you will realised than an 1st Mag star is always 100 times brighter than an 6th Mag star [2.512^(6-1) = 100], Note: The lower the Mag the brighter the object get... And the brightness will increase or decrease in an exponential rate 2nd: The ratio in relation to distance and brightness is D : B^2 respectively, so if the same object is place 2 times the distance away it will appear 2^2 or 4 times dimmer, the object at 3 times distance away will be 9 times dimmer and so forth... So with this 2 stuff in mind you will slowly realise: (X/Y)^2=2.512^M Where M is the unknown variable in Mag. change... Where X and Y is the positions of 2 different points at different distance from the object of focus... Using Logarithm rules u will derive that M = (2lgX-2lgY)/lg2.512 [My formula] Well whether it really work that well I'm not very sure, but i do hope someone can help me to correct or even modified it to make it better like for eg. to make it more convenient it can be written as: V - A = 2(lgX-lg32.6) / lg2.512 Notes: Distance of X must be in light-year ... Anyway i am quite sure also I am not the 1st one to thought of this... It just that it is really that interesting to derive your own formula and use it in your own calculation

The game is great so far. The first two Levels play like stages (i mean not much free RE roaming) There are 7 fighting styles Trickster: Trickster is the default style and basically the most well rounded one of them all, considering you can already attack and shoot with good proficiency based on just the square and triangle buttons, setting the circle button up as a dodge button can be helpful. This style gives you the ability to dodge attacks quickly as well as the ability to run up walls. SWORDMASTER - For those who prefer the use of the blade there's the Swordmaster style. This style gives you an additional sword attack button, the circle button. You can spin your sword around and also slash in mid-air. GUNSLINGER - My personal favourite, Gunslinger changes the circle button to an additional gunfire button giving virtually every gun a secondary fire mode and allowing you to shoot in multiple directions, charge up your Handguns, and do the Rain Storm attack where you spin upside down in mid-air. Another thing you may not know is if you knock down an easy enemy, jump on his back to surf! ROYALGUARD - This is the defensive style, I've rarely used it but it changes the circle button to a block button and gives you the ability to defend and counterattack. Given enough experience it should prove to be quite useful. QUICKSILVER - Unlocked after defeating Geryon, this style gives you the ability to use your Devil Trigger as a means to stop time and slash wildly at enemies who can do little but stay still as they are chopped into pieces. DOPPELGANGER - The final style is unlocked not surprisingly after defeating the Doppelganger. With this you can go into Devil Trigger and use R1 + Circle to spawn an image of yourself to help fight. This image can actually be controlled by a second controller, plug it in and try it out yourself. There are 10 weapons in the game Devil Arms: Rebellion Cerberus Agni & Rudra Nevan Beowulf Guns: Ebony & Ivory Shotgun Artemis Spiral Kalina Ann Dante fights his brother Vergil who was Nelo Angelo in Devil may cry 1, and in DMC 1 he had his spikey hair. Well what do you guys think of the game??

Recently during my free time, with nothing better to do i begin trying to derive my own formula... So far i have comes out with this, the formula for calculating the brightness of stars in term of magnitudes in relation to distance: M = [2lg(x) - 2lg(y)]/ lg2.512 M: Magnitude change, if ans is +ve it appear brighter if -ve it will look dimmer X: Any distance Y: Distance of 10 parsec or 32.6 LY(The standard distance for absolute magnitude) Therefore: V = A + M or A = V - M where V is the Visual magnitude, A is Absolute magnitude and M is magnitude change For those astrophysic experts here.... Can this formula work Well here is the eg. of how i used my formula to calculate star brightness, the best eg is of course would be Sun... As you well know (For those Astronomy expert) Sun had a visual magnitude(V) of -26.8 and Absolute Mag.(A) of +4.83, to show how this formula work... Eath-Sun Distance: 1.496 x 10^8 km No. of seconds per year: 60 x 60 x 24 x 365.25 = 31557600 Speed of light (c): 299792.458 km/s Sun Dist in Light-year (X): 1.496 x 10^8 / (299792.458 x 31557600) = 1.581273248 x 10^ (-5) LY Distance of 10 parsec for Absolute Mag. (Y): 32.6 LY To use formula: M = (2lgX - 2lgY) / lg2.512 M = {2[lg(1.581273248) + (-5)lg10 ) - 2lg32.6} / lg2.512 = [2(-4.80) - 2(1.51)] / lg 2.512 = -31.56950371 Mag It show that the sun will shine -31.6 magnitude (or 4.25 trillions) brighter on Earth than on 32.6 LY away Since V = A + M Then V = +4.83 + (-31.57) = -26.74 Mag (Ans) Oops! My formula show that the visual mag. of the sun is -26.74, not the exact answer but i guess the answer came quite close... =P [EDITED] Anyway here is another typical eg whether it work or not (It can also come in handy in determining whether a particular website is reliable or not) look at this webpage for eg.... [url]http://en.mimi.hu/astronomy/beta_orionis.html[/url] It claimed that Rigel had a Visual Mag (V) of +0.12 and an Absolute Mag (A) of -7.1, and its located at over 900 years away.. To prove its reliability... We can find the distance from the given Visual and Absolute Mag V - A = 2 (lgX - lg32.6) / lg2.512 Sub V = 0.12 and A = -7.1 +0.12 - (-7.1) = 2 (lgX-lg32.6) / lg2.512 +3.61 x lg2.512 = lgX - lg32.6 therefore: X = 10^ ( 3.61lg2.512 + lg32.6 ) = 906.3344389 Distance of Rigel = 906 light-years (3 S.F) The source is quite reliable lol...

Hey Dagger IX1 ever thing of a "Dagger Chaos chat" just a topic where only you and i talk. Just talk about anything. Xx_Chaos_xX: just a thought, what about R.O.D. Dagger IX1: on G4tech tv, good show. I think that would be alsome. anyway i dont think they have english subtitles?? so its a waist :animeangr just download fansubs then buy the bootlegs and think you are putting money in Tv tokyo's pocket

[QUOTE=Dagger IX1]It's not a joke, it's a question. R2 DVDs can't play on R1 players unless the R1 player has been deliberately hacked in order to make it an all-region player. That's the purpose of the region system. I asked because many websites sell stuff marked as being imports or R2s, when they're actually region-free (Region 0) bootlegs. You could very well be buying authentic R2s, for all I know, but that's not really what it sounds like based on what you've said. *shrugs* Don't you think fans of Naruto would be a bit upset if Viz stopped at episode 25? Not to mention that it'd probably mean a huge financial loss for them as well... :animeswea ~Dagger~[/QUOTE] Thanks dude, i feel dumb. Hm? was the hole berserk thing a huge financial loss, because there is talk of a 2nd season. Back to naruto: so i am buying bootlegs, well my dvd player can play sony dvds, memorx, and more. it is a "cyber home" 2003. here a picture of the set [url]http://images.channeladvisor.com/Sell/SSProfiles/20057851/Images/naruto-i003_5.jpg[/url]

Spoiler about berserk [Spoiler]Griffith's only goal was to gain power. He was a just man who gained many followers, but the first signs of his evil appear as he is tourtured and imprisoned for a year for the crime of makeing love to the princess of the kingdom he served. As his grip on reality began to loosen, he blamed it all on Guts, his most trusted man and in many ways best friend. Because Guts decided to leave the Hawks, Griffith blamed him for his own predicament. Even after being rescued by Guts and some of the Hawks, he grows jealous of the relationship between Guts and Casca, a female member of the Hawks who had previously been obsessed with Griffith. His ambition having been destroyed, he was visited by the four angels; the godhand. These servants of god promised to give him ultimate power and his dream of ruleing, but there had to be a sacrifice. Griffith sacrificed his men, the Hawks, the people who loved and admired him, without a second thought. As they were brutally massacred by the servents of the godhand, Griffith died and Femto, the final member of the godhand was born. The only people left alive at that point were Guts and Casca, so in order to spite the man who he blamed for his misfortune, he raped Casca and forced Guts to watch. Even Charlotte Her self Was A tool. he was using her to become king.[/spoiler] Thats where the berserk anime ended. so you didint see the end, that was episode 25, so i am saying [B]STOP[/B] at episode 25 viz, and keep making the manga. [QUOTE]Do your R2 DVDs have English and/or Chinese subtitles? Do they play on an R1 player?[/QUOTE] I dont get that joke?

Hm? right but i got some great R2's, with no problem. Will Naruto be on As? anyway i dont thing R1 DVDs are wroth it,only if its uncut. Do the right thing Viz, stop the series when they found out zabaib is still alive, like they did with berserk :)
