Anyone out there?

My favorite anime is "Wolf's Rain" by far. My gosh, that show made me cry about eight times.

Plus, it has wolves in it. Toboe was awesome.

I also like the manga Yuugiou. It's so...different from the dubbed anime...I also read the first part of a manga called "Hikari No Go" or something like that. Kind of similar to Yuugiou, but I really liked it.

Yu Gi Oh is good, I like a few chosen favorite episodes,
and Hikuro No Go is in Shonen Jump!

They are both realyy (x 2 million)good.

Oh, Inuyasha and Yu-Gi-Oh! Shippo and Yugi are forever and always in my heart.
Shonen Jump is awesome!

My heart practicly pounded out of my ribcage the other day. Here's the story.

My mom & I were at Target ( We call it Tarjje.) and I was looking at the Anime/Manga on DVD'S 'Cause I couldn't find me poor ol' ma. When *Dramatic Pause* I looked straight infront of me And i saw FRUITS BASKET ON DVD!!!!I practicly fell over. But, I had come there for the new Pokemon game..it was desision time...so I choose Pokemon, naturally I was heartbroken. My old love for Pokemon or my New love for Fruba. Now I pester my mom anytime we go past Taget (Which is usually when we're going to a movie, See Diagram X)

Heh...I rather flipped out when I saw that Wolf's Rain volumes II and III were on Target shelves. ^^; I added two more things to my Christmas list. I hear that a lot of older anime fans like Cowboy Bebop. I watched it a couple times and find no liking for it other than the fact that there's a Corgi in it. o_O;

I love Cowboy Bebop, and Trigun... Cowboy Bebop seems to be more popular. It's not like a lot of animes y'all watch that are made for kids... there's definitely different themes and whatnot. I like bounty hunters. If I could live my life over again I might want to be one. Don't think my parents would approve in this life. Plus I'm not that quick I don't think. Anyway, Trigun and Bebop are my top 2 animes.

Oh, man, I've wanted to watch/read Trigun for a really long time, but I haven't gotten the chance yet. A ton of people have said that it's very good, including you, Superlion. My parents won't let me stay up that late...

Scary thing: The High School where one of my older friends goes has the Dragonball mangas in its library. That's kinda scary.

If your parents won't let you stay up that late, then tape it and watch it when you can

Trigun is definitely worth it.

Hard choice between Vampire Hunter D (original and Bloodlust), and Wolf's Rain. I think I'll go with D, just because I tend to like movies and OVAs better than series.

And SL, if you think Cowboy Bebop is unique in it's adult-ish-ness, you know very very little about anime.

Post by **superlion** » Wed Nov 10, 2004 12:34 am

oh I know it's not unique. I'm just looking at the lists that have been posted here

OMG, there is this guy in my class who has the book of Trigun, and he reads it EVERY SINGLE DAY. It gets SO annyoying, and he askes me EVERY day if he can borrow my Fruits Basket books!! I'm like "Well, why don't you just get some yourself?" He's like "My parents won't lend me money." ARGG!!
I'm a new fan of Dragon Ball Z, anyone seen the one where Goku gets that brain thing? Arg, I missed it because we have a block at our house for 7 & under Phht! Like I'm not!

If I had the manga of Trigun (not happening anytime soon, folks, my parents barely get along with anime and I am broke myself) I would probably do the same. When I got ahold of the Cowboy Bebop movie in recorded format, I watched it something like 17 times in a week.

EDIT:
I GOT THE FRUBA DVD FOR MY CA TRIP!! Ohh...and I HATED TIJANNA(Is that how you spell it?

OH MY GOD. I made this awsome discovery at my local library.
I hadn't been there in like ...AGES... so I find the (very small) Manga/Anime section!! So, I pick up a book with out looking, and it's INU YASHA!!! I started to read it, and I said "This is soo **** good!! I should chech it out" (Excuse my french

) I go back the next day and check their database, and someone (probably CODY) has checked out 2 & 3. So I get #4....IT'S HALARIOUS!!
And Inu Yasha's cute.....
