Sonic the Hedgehog: Nenrikichan sakusen?

Post by **Green Gibbon!** » Sat Oct 16, 2004 11:52 am

Yeah, I mean really, this goes against everything I believe in and fight for, but the original Japanese version is just a generic children's anime with no outstanding qualities to speak of. The American version is basically like when you'd mute the volume on the TV and make up your own crazy dialogue and situations to what was going on, so that's the only thing that makes it appealing at all. It's almost a Mystery Science Theater sort of thing.

Interestingly, the anime club at school uses Samurai Pizza Cats pictures on their posters, which I thought was kind of a weird choice. I guess it's probably in public domain now or something. (One of the main reasons I know ULL is so far behind the curve is that we only just got an organized anime club this year. And the only sponsor they could find was some professor in engineering who used to like Gundam or something.)

I'm still waiting for my Samurai Pizza Cats DVDs.

About two years a ago, we had an Anime club at my school.
All we ever did was just <i>watch</i> Anime after school and eat snacks.

Only lasted that one year though..

Ahh, Anime club. I had to sneak in my PS2 in school every Thursday in Anime club where the japanese teacher would keep in locked in the closest until after school when the club started. All we did was DDR and watch anime, while the other half of the kids played YuGiOh card games. Best damn waste of time I ever had.

Whatever. His acting isn't Oscar worthy by any means, but it's not nearly as bad as people say it is.

Affleck gets a bad rep because of two things: the Bennifer debacle, and constantly starring in Bruckheimer travesties. A lot of people tend to confuse Affleck the "pretty boy celebrity" (bash him all you want, I don't give a fuck) with Affleck the actor, when he's actually not that bad in the acting department.

Again, I'm not calling him great, or brilliant, or even really good. I'm just not a fan of the bandwagon backlash.

Eh, why not?

Anyone know if the Japanese version was any better?

He's all right. That's about it.

Who's the genius that thought up the name "Animerica"?

Me. <i>Duh</i>. What kind of genius does it take to figure that out?

You could've hired a consultant to come up with it. We didn't know.

Man, I last visited this place about three days ago. Back in those days, this thread was about Rouge and Amy. How times fly... :)

Tommorrow we'll be discussing the quantum mechanics of a 4-dimensional universe.

Or who has the best-shaved crotch.

In many ways the same question.

Men shave their crotch?

Zeta · Post by **Zeta** » Sun Oct 17, 2004 6:39 pm

I admit to doing it once or twice.

Post by **Delphine** » Sun Oct 17, 2004 6:45 pm

I thought that only happened in porn.

Only gay people shave their crotch.

So these are Pep's pubes I keep finding all over the place.

So you prefer your girls with crotch beards?

You're not allowed to use reason against a stereotype.

Completely shaved women look really, really silly to me.

It's nice if they're neat, though.

No way, thick carpets are the path to enlightenment.
