Well I was handsome and I was strong
And I knew the words to every song.
"Did my singing please you?"
"No! The words you sang were wrong!"

*splutters* Excuse me? There is NOTHING whatsoever wrong with Japanese cartoons. OK, admittedly "Beyblade" and "Yu-Gi-Oh!" are some of the s**t things in the genre, but Naruto, Gundam.. anyone who has problems with them can meet me out back.eastmidswhizzkid wrote:ain't it a fuckin' shame that they don't show half the quality kids shows we had ? the modern kids programmes are sh1te on the whole -cheap japanese cartoons; which are really just adverts for expensive but dull games/toys .scotty wrote:,but will the younger viewers get it? .markfiend wrote:Was this guy named after him?

Great description. That is, if it wasn't completely backwards.eastmidswhizzkid wrote:ain't it a fuckin' shame that they don't show half the quality kids shows we had ? the modern kids programmes are sh1te on the whole -cheap japanese cartoons; which are really just adverts for expensive but dull games/toys .
99.9% of Animé has the following lifecycle:
- Japanese Manga comes out
- Japanese Animé version follows
- Animé fansubbed in English and distributed over the 'net
- Animé licensed and properly translated for the US and UK
- Manga properly translated and released in the West (probably by Tokyopop)
- Animé gets all of the good bits taken out by US censors and the chaff filters through to the UK
- Huge marketting and resultant merchandise crap
- Sh!tty spin-off series ad nauseum
[/Animéconomics Geek]
Whinging aside, that's the way everything in the world goes now. It has artistic credibility, finds a comfortable niche with a devoted set of fans and if corporate America discovers it, it milks it for all it's worth.

At least Outlaw Star was shown in the UK completely uncensored, with an episode previously cancelled due to all the gratuitous nudity and swearing shown, and blood and broken bones out of flesh shown.
As opposed to DBZ which had "kill you" changed to "send you to another dimension", blood changed to spit in some scenes, aliens blood made yellow or green.. it's just embarassing at times.

The Dragon Ball series are quite good if uncensored, but by the end of Z the power levels were just so impossibly high, it just lost all sense.eastmidswhizzkid wrote:beyblade,dragon-ball z,yu-gi-oh,pokemon.....thats the fellers.AWFUL!!!Dark wrote:*splutters* Excuse me?

Outlaw Star and Cowboy Bebop can also be added to the list of good ones.

Some weird, giant machine? Most of my childhood is vague due to all the drinking I did as a growing adolescent.
My fondest memories are of the Demon Headmaster, or Boot Street School, or Space Vets, or the early series of Red Dwarf on a Friday night at nine. Bloody brilliant.
