> kid, just an aside - do you like Japanese things?
i'm a bit of a sinophile, i do like all things asian, but especially Japanese culture... I plan on moving there if I can get my act together and learn the language, (I started a few years back but then all my Japanese friends moved back to Japan and my study time has deteriorated since then...)
>If you do, have you seen Princess Mononoke? It's much better to watch it in Japanese with the English sub-titles.
I haven't seen it but would like to, It's a shame it didn't do better in the states than it did, pretty much means you won't be seeing too much anime in the theatre any time soon... I abhor dubs of anything foreign, but especially Japanese, I love the language, the way it sounds... I can't believe they dub Iron Chef..
>My sons got me into animé - not the usual taste for a woman my age but I really enjoy it. I highly recommend watching it.
I collect the TV series anime that is shown on regular broadcast television stations like tv-Tokyo, like Love Hina + Marmalade Boy... etc etc, I like odd ones like that, not the typical mech robot type stuff...
