holeeee crap on a stick!!
must have spent many weekends playing on Fort Canning! -
Yeah, MG! I'm ex-ACJC!
How's everyone's day today? -
Dubbed or subbed? I never really got into that series, as there was a bit too much of a fantasy/sword-and-sorcery element to it. The only work of Rumiko Takahashi that I like is Maison Ikkoku.Originally posted by the Bear:life's okay..
watching Inuyasha now.. i like this series
Oh yeah, you can probably tell from my handle that I am a big fan of Vandread!
MG -
VanDread is hilarious!
especially when the spy stepped out of the closet
i've watched a whole lot of anime... still, the best out there to me: Cowboy Bebop, Ghost in the Shell (Stand Alone Complex) and Gunslinger Girl.. the last episode of GG would break your heart...
p.s. it's subbed... -
Alive and well, and accounted for (thus far!).Originally posted by Rhonda:Yeah, MG! I'm ex-ACJC!

How was work today? Any interesting tales from the ICU?

Interesting tales? Not so far! I'm in a new workplace now and haven't gotten acquainted with the 'resident other-beings' there yet.Originally posted by Meia Gisborn:Alive and well, and accounted for (thus far!).

Vandread has some comedic aspect, but overall it was a brilliant animé both in terms of visuals and character development.Originally posted by the Bear:VanDread is hilarious!

Meia Gisborn's character was perhaps the most well-developed in the series. Brilliantly voice-acted by Fumiko Orikasa!

Et tu, stellazio?! Mais tres beaucoup!! (You too, stellazio! But very good!!)
OK, I learnt today which two rooms in my new ICU are supposedly pretty 'haunted'. Apparently, an ex-patient actually 'parachuted' out of the windows of one of the rooms a few years back!! -
What the... ?Originally posted by stellazio:I Love anime too,inuyasha i quite lazy to download too many liao..Erm i like full metal panic fumoffu,green green,bleach,samurai x alot la..And yes i'm from ACS too..
So how many present or past ACSians do we have here????
MG
(And yeah, FMP Fumoffu was out-and-out hilariaous!) -
i forgot about Samurai X.. i bought the whole series.. it's GOOD...
ooo... Inuyasha is in trouble.. he can't control his new sword
-
Don't you mean Rurouni Kenshin? Samurai X is what ADV renamed the series to when they obtained the distribution rights to the series in the US.Originally posted by the Bear:i forgot about Samurai X.. i bought the whole series.. it's GOOD...

Thanks to Bear, I got to watch Cowboy Bebop! I love that series! Till today, I still hum 'The Real Folk Blues' tune - that song just sticks to my head! Oh, a few other songs in that anime get their airtime in the jukebox I have beneath my skull too!
I haven't had the opportunity to watch much anime. My shifts prevent me from catching episodes shown on TV and the boxed VCD's they sell in the shops aren't all that cheap. Want to watch, but not much opportunity to. Worse now since I've got stuff lined up to do after work. 
Sigh... speak of being under-compensated! From what I do remember from my HR Admin days, the responsibilities I have to bear at work far outweigh the premium they have tagged to it. Major discrepancy! -
WAH,must do translation??You forgot we were singing the ACS anthem a couple of weeks back?Oh Ranma 1/2 is funny too,i got FMA but no time to watch, Curious Play as well as Flame Of Recca is dammn good too..Originally posted by Rhonda:Et tu, stellazio?!

Off the bat, I'll admit that I don't really believe in ghosts and such. However, curiosity compels me to inquire how the haunted aspect manifests itself in these two rooms. Unexplained weird noises, perhaps?Originally posted by Rhonda:OK, I learnt today which two rooms in my new ICU are supposedly pretty 'haunted'.

MG -
yeah.. forgot how to spell Rurouni or whatever it was
i loved the very last episode... (i watched it in English)
where he address Kaoru without "Miss" for the first time...
i should wander to the shops to get the DVD of the movies after he married her..Originally posted by Meia Gisborn:Don't you mean Rurouni Kenshin? Samurai X is what ADV renamed the series to when they obtained the distribution rights to the series in the US.
MG -
argh!! double..
oh.. just to ask.. who's interested in going bowling one of these days? -
I love Ranma 1/2!!! They don't sell the VCD's in the shops yet though.
Say, where do you guys get hold of these anime in Singapore? -
Did Kenshee marry Kaoru?I thought that was only in the oav or ova?A small mini series...Download anime don't bother buying,when you burn into CDs its all the same..heheh..Cowboy Bebob,i think you guys just watch it for Faye Valentine..

No idea. Haven't had the opportunity to sit down with my new colleagues to talk about it. Just heard snippets of it as we went about work.Originally posted by Meia Gisborn:Off the bat, I'll admit that I don't really believe in ghosts and such.

I didn't believe in them much because I never got to see them... until my encounter with them at work. When more than five people report seeing the same thing at different times, and independant of each other, you have to believe!
Anyways, I work in a place with a large concentration of spiritual activity - it's kinda like a terminal station for the afterlife - so, the chances of getting a hair-raising experience is definitely much higher! -
no man.. the whole story.. the whole quiet desperation of each character...
especially Spike, Julia and Vicious.. played to its very tragic end... they all knew it was coming.. yet, they could not get out of it...Originally posted by stellazio:Did Kenshee marry Kaoru?I thought that was only in the oav or ova?A small mini series...Download anime don't bother buying,when you burn into CDs its all the same..heheh..Cowboy Bebob,i think you guys just watch it for Faye Valentine.. -
Actually i was just kidding,cowboy bebob got a rating of 8.8/10 so it should be good.But i'm not interested in those space outerworld kinda anime,but rather more of special powers kind..Thats why i didn't watch vandread,galaxy angels etc even when they showed it on TV..

*cough*BITTORRENT*cough*!Originally posted by Rhonda:I love Ranma 1/2!!! They don't sell the VCD's in the shops yet though.

Most of the animé series currently airing on TV in Japan are subtitled and available for download within a few days of the broadcast. I get most of the torrent seeds (I think that's what they're called) from Baka Updates. Click on 'Releases' on the right to go to the seeds.
Another good site to download animé, manga and music is Tokyo Toshokan.

it's got nothing to do with space and powers and stuff...
just a bunch of bounty hunters... they could have set it in any time and place.. and it would still be as good... the storyline is wonderfulOriginally posted by stellazio:Actually i was just kidding,cowboy bebob got a rating of 8.8/10 so it should be good.But i'm not interested in those space outerworld kinda anime,but rather more of special powers kind..Thats why i didn't watch vandread,galaxy angels etc even when they showed it on TV..
