The Old School Otaku Lounge

I honestly only listen to anime OP/ED songs when it comes to Japanese music, particularly rock music.

Just started Far Cry 3.

Recently finished Double Dragon Neon, Okami HD, and The Last Story.

I have only watched two: Great Teacher Onizuka and Densha Otoko. I enjoyed them mainly because of their comical nature but Jdramas in general kind of have a soap opera-ish feel to them which I'm not a fan of. My mom and sisters drove me up the wall with their novelas. (Spanish soap operas.)

I agree with most of the comments made regarding original BBC/2040. The original lacks some of the story details that 2040 offers but I think the original still did a good job developing the characters despite the lack of background story. I think most fans could have probably imagined what the Knig...

I just picked up the remastered Bubblegum Crisis set so I'll probably burn through those this weekend. Let us know if there is any audio synch issues with your DVDs. Negative on the audio sync issues; all of the DVDs seemed to work fine. Also, Bubblegum Crisis is awesome - really wish there had bee...
