Life, the universe, pies, hot-pink bunnies, world domination, and everything
Just guessing, but it looks as if this topic is ready to stand on its own. If so, here’s the place to post.

I love anything to do with Japan, so if it’s there I probably like it.
Escpecially the Meiji Restoration.

I have never been to Japan, but I have lived in other interesting places. Tell, please, the attraction if Manga and Anime over other forms of art?

Oh boy I’ve been waiting a *long* time to do this. :is gleeful:
While anime/manga may seem childish/simple on the surface, they are actuallyvery broad in their appeal. Let me make it clear: The anime you see on Cartoon Network are by no means the only types out there. What is screened on American television is usually “shonen” or series based around what is thought generally appeals to boys. Like my fellow anime fans (or otaku, you choose ^-^) I have several reasons for likeing Japanese animation/comics. Here are the basics.
1) The shows have deeper and more complex story lines that are rarely to be found in American cartoons. The object of anime is not to divert your attention for increments of fifteen minutes or so, but to entertain you with an ongoing story.
Examples of issues dealt with: Betrayal, revenge, death. love. Watch any episode of Full Metal Alchemist and you’ll see frustration, pain, or any other variety of emotions. You can’t find that in an episode of “The Fairly Oddparents”
2) The animation is just done so much better. The perspective, the backrounds, and yes, the (in)famous anime eyes all add to an already detailed tapestry. I might also point out that not all anime characters have Sailor Moon eyes, which are characteristic of “Shojo” manga. “Shojo” means based around things thought to appeal to girls. (Mostly romantic plots.)
I really could go on and on. Basicly, I love anime because it means something. It’s so much more imaginative and original than any other form of animation available. If you have any questions, I can describe to you an anime plot in

Um… Axa… whoa… I don’t watch TV, so I see what youre talking about in books. Maybe I’ll try it, but I’m just more comfortable with the “complex plots” you were talking about in literature, not pictures on a screen.

All (comment 11),
If you’ll draw decent manga Muses, I’ll post them. They have to be good ones, though. I don’t want Larry Gonick to stop talking to me.

I drew all the Muses once… still have the pictures. I guess they came out ok, but I really don’t like to show my “artwork” (which mainly consists of copying the covers of video game boxes when it comes to manga).

I drew a disproportional picture of Aeiou and a will improve it later.
If Koko is a cartoon, is he sort of like a spirit? ‘Cause then i could let him possess me and throw my ninja pies o so much better.

:sqees: I HAVE THE FIRST NARUTO MOVIE! :gleeee happy!:
The translation in the subtitles is terrible, seeing as how it went from Japanese to Chinese to English, but still! I finally bought it! I’ve seen it before too, but MEH! :is hyper:
I’m glad it’s not dubbed. The American voices can bug me. Sometimes. :hugs Inoue Kazuhiko-sama!:

By the way ChinTsu… I’m a girl. I kinda thought it was obvious.

Fanart would be fun. Although I’m afraid I take forever to draw half decent manga. I was bored one day and I tried to see if I could draw from the book beside me, and it took five minutes to get the eye right. But assume of course, that regular art is welcome.
I have always wanted to do Urania realistic.
0
0
Yes, fanart of any type is welcome.
A realistic Urania would be worth seeing. In fact, we thought about commissioning a romantic-realistic painting for the cover of the Lord of the Rings issue, showing the Muses as their “Lard of the Rings” characters, but we opted for the hobbit-hole interior instead. That’s still the prettiest cover Muse has ever done, I think.

CHINTSU!!!! ACK! :calms down: Have you seen the Naruto commercials on Cartoon Netowrk? Bleh, they said nenjutsu instead of ninjutsu, but whatever.
I’m concerned about the voices they’ll be using, but I plan on buying the DVDs and just watching the sub, so fie on you Cartoon Network! :throws pie:
I don’t understand when they say “rule the school” in the commercial, Naruto wants to become Hakage, not rule the school… :coughs:

Hokage*, spelled that wrong, hehe… :loves Yondaime:

Hey, ChinTsu! The manga section is over here!

I hope everyone is aware that at nine o’ clock pm Naruto is showing on Cartoon Network. If it’s terrible beyond all belief, it’s because
1) Americans can’t dub for their lives,
and /or
2) The first few chapters, episodes aren’t that great. Not until Kakashi comes in…mwahahaha….

XD Sorry if I’m confusing. I’m a confusing person.
I loved the dub though, it was done a lot better than I thought it would be.

why did you call me XD? there is no ‘D’ in ‘Phoenix’. And it’s not that YOU are confusing, Axa, just I don’t know what all this Manga stuff is.
all bishbush bala’bush to me.
Here is something funny:
my former Chumash teacher, Mora Glaser, sometimes talks Hebrew stam in the middle of the sentance (like what just did). Once we were all acting up, and she told us to “dye cvar!”
anyway, dye cvar means enough already in Hebrew, but we thought she was telling us to die already! it was really funny once we figured it out, though.

“XD” Is an internet smiley thing. Look at it side ways, and it’s supposed to resemble a laughing person. I use those too much.
Heehee. that’s funny! My teachers are all boring.
I knew a transfer student from Japan that would tell the teacher to die in Japanese when he left for the day though.

Has anyone here heard about Mia Ikumi? She does the Tokyo Mew Mew books, which full on rock!
0

Otaku rock! Especially foreign otaku, who don’t get enough credit at all. We love otaku!
My favorite animanga at the moment is Megatokyo. But I also like classics, like Socrates in Love and Studio Ghibli stuff. And Nadesico. Science-fiction manga is wonderful. Mm mm. Mia Ikumi is good, but not as good as some other people. Tokyo Mew Mew is really not my thing.

I read Socrates in Love, that was really good, despite the fact I had to read it on one of those dinky stools Borders has.
I haven’t read much lately, but one of my firiends has been borrowing Gravitation from another friend…
Real otaku understand what I’m inferring here. It’s hilaroius to read. No offense meant.
But things I actually read? Hmm, Naruto is…eh now. I maintain the only good arc was Kakashi Gaiden, and the big Sasuke and Naruto fight.
…But back on topic, Megatokyo is t3h r0x0rs, and I hope that made sense.

I read Socrates in love awhile ago. It was good but it made me sad. I guess that was part of the point of the story, though.
Megatokyo! I’ve only read the first printed volume, but one of these days I’ll get around to reading the rest of it.
As for Naruto on Cartoon Network…*shudder*…I can’t even bring myself to talk about it. Why, why, WHY does Shonen Jump insist on giving its anime series to cartoon network and other similar stations, knowing the english versions will be cut and dubbed beyond recognition??? Maybe if they would actually make an effort to leave the series in tact the rate of questionable internet anime downloads would go down.

Yeah, the Naruto dub’s not great, but that horrible excuse for a translation Shonen Jump puts out is disgusting. It’s Gai, not Guy, thanks. I can’t even read it. When the manga is edited, you know something’s wrong. No one says “blast”, okay, no one. They are SO far behind, too. Japan’s on chapter..oh…303? And we’re on what, 60? =_= I hate Shonen Jump America.
Just be grateful 4Kids didn’t get the license. -shudder- We’ve seen the evil they rain- think One Piece.
Poor Usopp.
