    I think it would be great if people started trying to do stage versions of popular anime.

    Who cares? It all sucks. Anyone tried watching Dragonball-Z without smoking crack at the same time? Why are they always pulsating and sweating, but just standing in one place acting like they're all constipated?

    If you were disappointed by the dubbing of Akira, do not dispair: Bebop really is better.

    Hearing the voice Tetsuo was surreal after realizing he was the main character of a very child-oriented, VERY popular anime for almost 4 gigabytes... er... 100 episodes (i assure you I have no idea how large all of the mpegs would be... er, assuming there even are mpegs) Hearing Josh swearing in the same voice was more amusing after considering the interesting sound bytes that could be meshed together. Which would be a good project for a rabid taiora, but linking to that would demand of me posting anonymously.
