Black Lagoon is great, I really had no idea it was an actual anime till a few weeks back (saw some fanwork, thought it was something original)

^Hate to tell you but he's right, teachers are going to confiscate anything deemed inappropriate (I do think "Comic books" or "Graphic novels" or "inappropriate reading material") Is a definition in which berserk falls under. I'm pretty sure your teacher (or your friend...

I was hoping to pick it up two-three weeks ago, but Waldenbooks in the mall (Texas) didn't have it yet, so I have to wait till they do.

People might remember Op,FM you know why? In two big polls on tv and internet the japs voted both OP,FMA into the top 100 anime of all time. What poll was this? Cowboy Bebop has been voted within the top 5, same with Gundam Seed etc. Just because it's in the top 5 now does not guarantee it's spot 1...

There is a sniper in Baghdad who has supposedly killed and injured over 100 american soldiers. It kinda sucks that you dont hear anything about him in the states at all. He sometimes tapes the shootings I'm surprised to find someone on a forum who knows about him (well I guess if you're going to fi...

It's like saying Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust or Transformers aren't/are anime because they were either developed in one country prior to the other or featured more of an oriental staff. dolls and rugs are the only things that are oriental. lol what is with people on MW?

yeah that's fine, your initial time is close enough let alone it's a believable score (Again, this is intentionally for people who do get some ungogly 0.0- score) versus people scoring in average/above average things.

Asian, the word you're looking for is Asian. Oriental is an adjective only used in reference to food or inanimate objects. ;) Incorrect :P Not technically true.

Anything hovering over the 0.3 range is considered "slow", under .25 is considered a respectable average.
Anything under .2 is above average. Anything under .1, well, is inhuman.

The problem with this thread is that each and every one of us is trying to box art into a limited and/or restrictive category. I can't even begin to count the number of occasions where, during an Art History class, a professor would give us the definition of say, Rococo, only to say "this is R...

The Dragon Slayer cannot be made, it's simply not cost efficient. I believe just the prospects of the iron/steel needed would have it weighing in at nearly 600-700 pounds in the average dimensions presented in a manga. I guess they could use sheet-metal, but again, it would never reach somethign on ...

However, it does bear the style, as do many American shows now a days. You can't say it is or isn't either way, whether someone wants to be anal retentive and ...

It looks to me like the basis is DMC1 Dante. It really depends on what approach they take, we'll either end of with a nomura-pretty boy anime or something worth watching. Don't think it can go any other way.
