Also I just finished watching Urotsukidoji:Legend Of The Overfiend.
I had heard of it for a long time, and some of its more disgusting content (Demon Hentai anyone? ) and despite some of the totally unnecessary demon sex and rape scenes, it was an actually good anime film, dont get me wrong its not a scratch on Orguss02 (my favourite anime) or Perfect Blue, but it was still a good one, definatly better than some of ther other demon anime's like Monster City [img]smile.gif[/img]
HAs anyone else seen Urotsukidoji? And what did you think of it, oh and has anyone else saw Orguss02? Cause I dont know anyone else who has, which is a shame cause its so good!

Ringu is much better than the American remake (The Ring). Japanese horror is like their anime (esp. hentai) in that all the anger/fear/sexual repression comes out with no holds barred. As bad (ie sick & twisted as it is) it is still rendered as archtypes/innuendo/symbolic. Have you ever wondered why Japanese "heroes" and women are round eyes while all the other characters have Asian features? Round eyes dominated/defeated/raped by demons. I don't know if I'm more afraid to be Japanese or gaijen. The Overfiend series was pretty good but like you I much prefer Perfect Blue or Princess Mononoake. Maybe we could take this to the book/movie forum and get good arguements *ahem* debates going on the symbolism of Japanese manga/anime/hentai and which ones are really good.

Leafs are losing... Again... *sigh* And that same car commercial has been on seven times already. Speaking of hockey, what is everyone's favourite team(s)? I like Toronto and Detriot. But not Montreal. Grrrrr....

Howdy Cloudy!
It's fun to say try it. It's been a long time we've been on at the same time. I hope you enjoyed the pineapple. I'm giving you fair warning that I've been doing experiments. Look for a Hedda announcement in the near future.

Sir G, did I see the Oilers actually winning? *gasp* Something is wrong in the world.

BTW, for those that don't know, I am a Wings fan. After all, I live in Michigan. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Speaking of which: Yay, UofM! They gave out a beating today!
