Really, I can't even understand why animators in America even bother to make such useless stuf >:(f...none of the people around me seem to enjoy them either. Well, some of them are learning I hope, from Japanese animation art, plot, character designs, etc.

I understand the claims that you both make since a lot of the animation out there is so simplistic that anyone watching must feel their brain cells being massively zapped into oblivion, but with all due respect ;D my point is still valid. I was thinking about shows such as Martin Mystery or Totally Spies or the greatly defunct Cybersix who follow (at least aesthetically) the better anime out there. Now, I don't think these shows are the greatest thing there is, but if you have ever watched them you will see what I mean...
Having said that, I would like to go back to the topic in hand which is a documentary on the History of Fansubbing... Does anyone out there know if there are any made on the subject? (not including "Tapes from the Underground" ;)) or any books for that matter.... I would greatly appreciate it!

Never watched them? Were they ever shown on Cartoon Network?

I'm not sure, because we don't get CN here in Canada; however, if you want to check them out they are produced by Marathon which I think has its HQs in France. Totally Spies is a US/France co-production. I actually find this particular show quite funny... They feature the lives of 3 boy crazy teenage girls who must juggle saving the world, looking good, trying to get a boyfriend, etc... Sounds familiar? ;D
