| everyone should try and take a look into .hack//sign it is a very very good series if you are into good storylines. But if you are into the more action oriented stuff then i say you probably wont like this that much. It rarly has fighting but when the fight scenes start to commence they get very good because they blend the fighting in the storyline and it is amazing. | |||

Originally posted by Ziffski Excuse me, did you just categorize Gundam Wing as 'decent anime'? That's like at the bottom of the Gundam pile. I swear, everytime I see/hear/read about/talk to/smell/breath/taste/lick/disembowel/rape a Winger, I truly have the desire to kill. (not saying you like Gundam Wing) Halodude: .Hack//sign DOES have an interesting storyline, yes. However! It does not deliver it very well. It moves incredibly slowly and could use more variety in it. I mean, the entire show is directed to one thing(Tsukasa), not multiple events. |

| Seeing how we canadians always get the stuff way after the others as for teh TV, I already seen most of them already. Anyway, the day we'll see Naruto on canadian television, I'll be mostly pleased (If that ever happen)... | |||

| I don't think I will be pleased by seeing Naruto on TV, because by then, it will be horribly dubbed by oh, I don't know... FUNIMATION perhaps? | |||

Originally posted by Trunxy/Dogan Hey! In some parts of the world, that's all we get! I like Gundam Wing, and I cannot stand it when other people slag it off simply because there are better Gundam Series. I'm perfectly aware that there are better series, and if I had the means, I would watch them. I'm afraid that such an arguement isn't going to change me from judging Gundam Wing on it's individual merits. |

| I know that that's "all you get". But that's like if you don't count downloading anime. If you look around, I'm sure you can find Gundam X, Turn A Gundam, and other titles that are fansubbed. | |||

| Gundam SEED is weak. Not bad, like Wing wasn't bad. They're just weak. I remember that we were supposed to get an arseload of Gundam at the height of the Wing craze a few years ago. But that never happened. |

| I've had a fast connection for two months. I get frustrated when people underestimate my love and appreciation for anime because I haven't had access to downloading on broadband. The truth is that I'm coming close to having spent over |

Originally posted by Tomo Takino Well, at least you get something. Here's what airs on TV in Norway: Pokemon Digimon Beyblade Hamtaro Medabots (I think) Yeah. At least we get some decent manga. (For those who wonder: Dragon Ball, Detective Conan, Ranma, Blade of the Immortal, Love Hina, Chobits and GTO) |

| I only like downloading anime because I(stressed) can have access to many titles that I want to see. However, I don't like it because EVERYONE ELSE gets it as well. And I personally don't like those who have like only anime on their HD's, not on DVDs/VHS. | |||

Originally posted by Adamant That's about it for us as well, actually. Sci-Fi has stopped showing Anime at midnight, but I think they're showing Excel Saga really early in the mornings. Gundam Wing has been snubbed for yet more Dragonball related stuff on Cartoon Network, and the rest is the childrens programming that you mentioned. However, at a Q&A pannel with ADV at Amecon last weekend, they told some people that we may be in line to get The Anime Network *big smirk*  |

| Can I ask you a question? Um, does the anime(on dvd, of course) in the U.S. the same DVD region as that in teh U.K.? If it is, why not import? |

| nope, Europe is a different DVD region than the US. And a universal DVD player is expensive, if I'm not wrong. About downloading vs owning anime, I think it's a bit of a mixed bag. At our new connection, we can download an episode at 15-20 minutes if it goes well. The fantranslations usually make more sense than the official ones (if they even get subbed instead of dubbed) and I'd say those translating teams have the right to speak about dedication; they don't get paid for sharing new anime with idiots like me who just quit learning Japanese Add to that that I've yet to find a store that sells any anime DVD, and even if I will, the price of an anime DVD compared to a regular DVD is insane. It was like that in Belgium, and I doubt it'll be different here. (ex: my SE Lain DVD costed me 45 Euro, I bought it when I was going to uni, SE Lain was atleast 5 years old then, if not older. The most expensive movie DVD I own is a special edition of The Crow, which costed me 30 Euro when I bought it, within the first week of release. Now tell me again why I should buy anime instead of just downloading it? I will definately buy certain series if they ever make their way here and I can afford it, but untill then, I'm going to watch my fansubs.) |

| I managed to get a cheap DVD player and use a code to unlock it. Ah, the joys of working in retail! Incidentally, we're on Region 2... The same as Japan and Australia. I have imported the following titles: Ranma 1/2 Series 3 Ranma 1/2 OAVs (pirate) Trigun (pirate) Tenchi Muyo (pirate) That's pretty much how far my money has gotten me so far. University put a cap on most of it, but Ranma 1/2 third series was just last week. |
