You'd be surprised. I've seen some pretty action-packed shoujo, not to mention extremely effeminate "boy's manga."

AMAZING anime. By far my favorite Magical Girl anime. Not sure about the manga. Too poor to buy it. Probably just as good.

Oh, and don't watch Cardcaptors. (the 4kids dub) You'll want to kill yourself.

I'm serious.

Your praises have intrigued me, I shall now set out to acquire this anime.

I'd much rather hang myself than watch any 4kids dubbed anime.

I have the series myself but as of yet haven't watched much of it due to other issues.

I blame a couple of guys from AKon and 4Kids for making me acquire the series. They said it was good, and 4Kids fucked it up so badly that I went and tracked down subtitled copies. 4Kids should be shot in the nuts for what they did to that series.

The only thing that would scare me worse would be a 4Kids MKR.

If you don't mind HK Imports and don't wanna spend like 1000 dollars on the FUNimation DVDs (they dubbed it too, go figure), then get it here.

That's where I got mine and I was pretty happy with it.

Subtitles are a little wonky every once and a while, but nothing too bad. Except in the 2nd movie. Them's real bad. Not a big loss though.

I think they still do the free shipping for purchases over 100 dollars too, so just tack on another single DVD or a wallscroll or something and make it real cheap for yourself.

My friend's sister is absolutely obsessed with it, she has every tape and has bought every accessory based on it available on the American market. The other day when I was in a Chinese import store, I bought a book from the manga all in Mandarin just to impress her

I've seen maybe the first 5 or 6 episodes, it's semi-repetitive but offers enough to make each episode worth watching. The one about the Woody card was good. The progression is better than InuYasha episodes 30-113, at least.

Could be worse. Could have been a collabrative effort between Bandai, Funimation and 4Kids resulting in a bastard hybrid of Sailor Moon, DBZ and CCS.

I would actually watch that.

Also, I think that DiC should dub End of Evangelion.

Why not get USManga to translate, Funimation to hire the VA's, Manga to edit and 4Kids to produce it?

How about we use 4Kids to produce it, Software Sculptors to distribute it, FUNimation to edit it, and use the entire cast of Love Hina's dub for the VAs.

Dood, FUNimation is the company known for leaves. 4Kids edited the guns out of Yu-Gi-Oh! leaving guards pointing fingers at the crew though. XD

And I think the VA's from Speed Racer are probably dead. Or at least mute. That shit's old yo.

You seem to have a grudge against USManga Corps.

4Kids would be more likely to abuse that however given that they "tone down" things because they're "children's shows".

One could only hope.

Grudge? Nah. Enjoy laughing at them over some horrible HACK JOBS of translation and importing? Oh yeah. Being fair however they've been doing it longer than ADV, Manga, Funimation, etc have so I'm probably not being too fair about it...

My favourite anime is shonen..

Doesn't look it, does it? Lots of girlie men, but LOTS and LOTS of gore and blood and torture.

Arslan Senki (The Heroic Legend of Arislan) if anyone is interested. It's old but I like it a lot. The dub is TERRIBLE though.

You're thinking of Chronicles of the Heroic Knight. Which is a follow up TV Series to Lodoss War. It's badly animated and overall a very bad series.

If you can stay up till 4AM, they show it on TV here.

'Welcome to Lodoss Island' was the best part of the TV series.
