Guess what I asked for for Christmas...THIS!
Also in the December issue is a great article giving tribute to a farewell to Ranma, after 10 years of dubbing it's all over and the article sums it all up pretty well, with some interesting facts included.
In this issue there's also an article about the new anime Someday's Dreamers. www.somedaysdreamers.com is their beautiful but deeper information lacking website. The DVDs are brought to us by Geneon (formally Pioneer) and there's only 12 episodes (3 DVDs) to the series. The first DVD should be out by now and the second one is due in January 2004. Although I'm not particularly a fan of short series', Someday's Dreamers really looks like a charming series. Can't judge a book by its cover but the animation looks amazing. So welp I'll letcha know more when I getta see this one.
Here's a fun site if you wanna keep up on what's happening in Japan: www.japantimes.co.jp. It's largely in english too. Big plus! Type 'anime' into their search thing and you'll get a whole lotta stuff to read over. It's kinda fun to mess around with. Typing in 'Inuyasha' found me nothing, but 'Pocket Monster' turned up a few things. Decent way to kill boredom. ^^

My amount of updates has been pathetic lately, it's been all this Christmas stuff I keep getting involved with. I'll try and update more, I'll try to change, honest! He he. Next week is winter break and I'm hoping to finally get a break. So yea it's bedtime but I just wanted to give you guys the note to head over to AdultSwim.com and vote vote vote for you favorite show/episode to play on their end of the year special. That's all, how short, more eventually.

After school I watched the dubbed Cardcaptor Sakura The Movie 2 and with that I've added some info to the CCS page.

It's time to start talking about another new POKeMON movie. POKeMON 7 will be headed to Japanese theaters next summer and the star will be that weird red POKeMON, that one with the weird arms... That one. Frankly though I think I'm looking forward to the short more than the movie, it features Plusle and Minun! But looking at the trailer the main movie looks pretty creepy, that's a good thing. I made a page with some screenshots and stuff right here. If you wanna see the whole trailer click here.
I was watching All Purpose Cultural Cat Girl Nuku Nuku: Dash this weekend and after one DVD I've taken it off my list of things to watch. I don't recommend this series, it puts a person to sleep. On a happy note for anyone who's a relationship junkie (like me) I highly suggest watching His and Her Circumstances! What a great anime! It's series' like this that show-off the huge plus sides to anime.
The series revolves around a near perfect love story and it can all be seen on 5 DVDs. I still have one DVD to go so I'm hoping for a good ending.

I'm psyched guys cause my college apps are finally all turned in!! Now I can resume updating...
While I was at Toys R Us I picked up a little booklet advertising POKeMON Channel so I updated that page
right here. Channel will be released this Wednesday (yep in 2 days) and is only
gonna cost $30 so don't expect the world from the game. It's also aimed at the younger kids so there's
really no challenge involved for you gamers. Keep that in mind.
I got a notice that we'd be experiencing some downtime for 5 whole minutes (I love my host)! Haha, just to let ya know.

A nifty Christmas present....On December 9,2003 a special edition box set will be released containing the
first three dubbed Inuyasha DVDs for about $30. I think that's episodes 1-9. It's a good present to get someone started with an Inuyasha
collection and it is cheaper than buying each DVD separately.
Now onto the news that's been haunting me for almost a week. I'm not positive it's true but according to
this post at the Rumic World boards it mentions that the first Inuyasha movie will make its dubbed American premiere at Anime Expo 2004!! They mention that this news is from a Viz panel at Anime Next so the source seems reliable. Frankly I can believe it's true. With AX being the largest anime convention in the US the idea isn't farfetched. Heh, it's better than the Adult Swim or the theater premiere I was thinking of. Having its first showing at AX is waay better! My only problem is I can't make it to AX '04. NOOO!!! (Me be in Europe. ^^) I'll miss the premiere, hafta wait for the DVD or something, but I am incredibly happy and jealous of those who will be there. Grr.

There's a bunch I wanna say right now but I'm in a rush. Next update then. Anyways I took the afternoon and finished
up the Ranma episode guide. 161 episodes, whew! All the summaries were
written by me after watching each episode, so no stealing please. I feel I hafta mention something like that
cause I caught a few sites this week with my content but no credit. Friendly reminders are sometimes needed.

I got the timing right this week and gotta see a POKeMON Advanced episode. With that, I added a
screenshots page of the new opening. I must say, I do
like parts of the new song. The beginning of it "A kid from Pallet Town..." or however it goes needs a
different beat but as a whole I enjoy the new opening song. I also typed up an Advanced episode guide.
I'm still working on the Johto League summaries but since that tape got stuck with the broken TV, I figured I'd
start on the Advanced.
I've been watching my birthday present (don't ask how, I seriously think I broke another TV today) and call
me crazy but as of right now, 11:40 PM Saturday night, I think I like the dubbed Inuyasha better. Am I crazy am I crazy?! I'm on
Japanese episode 34 right now (34 eps in 3 days, no wonder my college essays aren't done) and I miss
the dubbed voices! Inuyasha and Miroku the most, I LOVE their dubbed voices. Sure, seeing the opening
before every episode, seeing Inuyasha in it's original format, and seeing all the things that were cut are nice, and I love the Japanese version for that, but
I'm missing that connection with the characters. I needa hear Richard Cox! This is what I get for
becoming sooo obsessed with a dub! My opinion may change to where I'm fine with both versions, but I felt
like sharing that with ya now. Subs = good, dubs = not as good, right? I keep telling myself that but just
cause something is said doesn't make it true. I'm done rambling, thanks for reading!

Game Guy, you're gonna be so proud of me! After a long long shelf time of sitting on the computer, I finally
got in gear and posted info for POKeMON Colosseum, Channel, and Box. All info has wonderfully been provided
by the Game Guy. He sent me the goods months ago but slow me just got it up now so some things might
be outdated. The POKeMON video games page got its pretty big update today.
