I'm thinking of selling my Standard editions to trade in for Limited Editions. Good Idea? (I really want Hard Copies of the Soundtracks and Sound Dramas, and I can give the duplicate Mangas to my uncle or something. )

The R1 extras are definately worth it. Soundtracks, Sound Dramas and the Booklets translated from Japanese to English.

It's such a shame that there's no such things for R2 so far.

Once again, Amazon has trouble with getting their stuff in stock. They had neither 00 nor GL, so I'll have to wait until they do, I had originally thought it was Beez' fault again for not getting their [parasitic bomb] out in time, but apparently both volumes have already been sent out to regular dealers, as I have reports from a friend saying that he already got his copies off some store.

[tornado fang]ing Amazon...
10 to 14 days my ass...

Zero / Re: Was Copy X really evil?

« on: September 29, 2009, 10:35:34 PM »

Didn't Phantom run into Cyber-elf X as a ghost?

(And are the Big 4 technically X's children?)

I meant that in the way of X appearing to the Big 4 inbetween ZERO1 and ZERO2, as well as after ZERO2. Phantom made contact with X while looming in Cyberspace and they both appeared before Fafnir and Leviathan while they were hanging between life and death. Neither X nor Phantom appeared before Harpuia, though technically he's the most important guy out of the Big 4, with him being Neo Arcadia's unofficial leader post-Z1 and all, not to mention he resembles X the most characterwise.

Started watching Darker than Black a few days ago.

I'll probably use part of my September paycheck to get these DVDs. Meant to watch this series for over a year now, and the sequel is coming up soon.

Continued watching Planetes, watched up to 17. This is really a good series. Yet another case of a lucky draw this year.

What a wierd kind of ending. Kinda dragged down my rating for the series a bit. Still very enjoyable. Definately one of the better series of 2009.

8,0 to 8,5

Zero / Re: Was Copy X really evil?

We should also remember that as far as the general pubic knows, Copy X is the real deal, still alive, and ruling the country now,  after saving the world multiple times.

only the resistance, Weil, and I assume some of the top folks in the government know that he is a copy. Im not sure if the big 4 themselves know, or don, or simply blindly follow him because he is X, regardless of their differences and that one is a copy.

Big 4 believe Copy X to be a revived version of the real X (since he vanished to seal the Darkelf in Yggrdrasil). Harpuia follows Copy-X MKII back to Neo Arcadia even though Zero says right on the scene that this X is a dublicate and not the real one. Makes me wonder why the real X never bothered to appear before the Guardians in the meantime and inform them of his copy's evil ways.

Rise is pretty cool, but I do like Inner universe. Aren't they by the same singer anyway?

Both are sung by Origa, yes.

Did she do anything else other than singing for GitS?

I like both the movies & SAC.  Saber's right though.  The movies & SAC series are two different continuities. 

What was Stand Alone Complex again, a timeline where the puppetmaster incident never happened?

Hmm. Since Ghost in the Shell intrigued me, I'm watching Stand alone complex.

You should rather watch the Innocence movie if you like the original film, since Stand Alone Complex has nothing to do with the GitS movie, completely different continuity IIRC.

Ah okay.  If you get a chance, I highly recommend watching the English Dub of it.  It is the best version of it.  Even the creator says so.

Steven Blum or whoever?

I hope you watched the dub of it.

German DVD set did not have the English dub on it. Watched it in Japanese. The German dub is also surprisingly good.

Tis my favorite anime.

Just finished it. Great series. It's a damn shame it never really caught my attention when it was airing over here on MTV, together with Escaflowne, Golden Boy and Lupin III. Truely, this thing is it's own genre.

9.0

Now if they can do scale model of Char's mech.

I remember seeing a video on Youtube the otther day of some other Gundam convention. That one actually had a 1/1 size Char's Zaku II head as part of the exhibition, complete with flashing, moving mono-eye.

I am SO worried.

There's no way it could be worse than the American version of the movie...or even the Japanese one.
