Re: Japanimation Association of Michigan?

Since the leaflet mentioned Zeta Gundam, I would like to ask about how well-known and well-watched Gundam was before Wing Gundam was aired on TV? I understood that there were fan-sub of 0079 and Zeta Gundam in the 1980s, weren't them? Point of order. The ad mentions Gundam Double Zeta, aka ZZ Gunda...

Re: Your memories of anime theatrical release?

Actual theater? Hmmm... not at a convention but an actual movie theater? It would almost certainly be Mononoke-hime. It was a sold out theater, but actually theater sized, and we had to go a ways for a theater that showed it.. Off the top of my head, I would think that most anime I have seen in an a...

Re: A-Kon 1997 report

Reading this report makes me want to ask: How big and active were the Trekkies before the 2000s? You makes it sounds like Star Trek is somekind of common language of nerds. Basically, from the sixties and seventies, Star Trek was -the- common point for science fiction fans. Yes, there were people t...

Dragon's Lair

Somewhere between anime and video games.... Dragon's Lair ^_^ I have always had a fond recollection if it.. when my daughter had us watching Stranger Things and the characters were running for as many quarters I correctly predicted that they were headed to the Dragon's Lair. Anyway, apparently they ...

Re: Seven Seas licenses the classic, ORIGINAL Space Pirate Captain Harlock!

So.... um... is there going to be a 'Volume 4'? Wikipedia says that the original was 5 volumes, but I know that volume size can vary.. the original post says that it was going to be 3 volumes, and now, 2 years later, there are three and I read them and... is this how the original manga ended?

Re: Was Randall Stukey representative to anything?

I don't think Sue Shambaugh was making any sort of profit out of translating anime movies. I can't remember what she was charging, but certainly it wasn't anywhere near what a professional translator would charge. When we subtitled the Queen Millennia film we used her script and I don't think she c...
