Current & Future L-E Projects / Re: POLL: Most favorite series amongst the current active (and stalled) project

Pretty easy pick for me, I'm afraid...

TRC is the series I'm most anxious to see each week simply because it's "new"...

I also voted for Sailor Stars and KOR because they are old faves-especially Stars... *_*
Stars I'm especially impressed with, tho, as up until now I've seen sub-quality fansubs (mainly due to inferior technology at the time).

Past L-E Projects / Re: Tsubasa Chronicle 2nd Season MASTER THREAD

I found myself registering just to reply that I agree with both cnet and flawney's posts.

The idea that people seem to have that if you happen to like a "popular" anime, you're a sell-out is ludicrous.

I say that having been a fan of anime since I was a small child watching shows like Voltron on TV and travelling to Boston to see Akira in a theatre. For people to e-thug others over something as simplistic is, in most cases, hypocritical and childish. We ALL like something that's "popular", so don't think that you're above everyone else simply because you happen to like something a minute before other people do.

Besides, everyone started SOMEWHERE with anime. If, for some people, it's Tsubasa, who CARES? A good lot of you probably started out watching stuff like DB/DBZ or CCS or Sailor Moon (still a fan of CCS and SM, thanks) so what's the problem? Sorry, but you can't be 1337 about anime and still wear t-shirts bought at Hot Topic, that place hasn't been cool in over 10 years. Neither can most people claim that their intro to anime/manga wasn't something imported into the US--which means it was ALREADY popular before you discovered it. *"you" being a general term*


Because, if that's the way it's going to go down, I probably would kick 95-99% of yer butts since I've been into anime for 20+ years.
