Not sure about the website. But I thought that it was pretty cool. Nice to see all three performing well.

Too bad we can't say the same for the OP anime in America. =(

Mark,

Just a simple fact: Humanity, in general, has no true taste. They believe they do. But that's why they all end up as wormfood anyway. Thus why I am, the Wormgod! :evil:

I mean, honestly, could you see a "family friendly" CBS, NBC or even ABC airing ANY animated formats, when in reality they seem to think that having endless repeats of the same, tired ideas some how makes them more money, while at the same time, shelling out dollars for over paided and certainly under working actors. (I cite John Stamos for evidence to that effect. Follow that up with guys like Mark Harmon and even all those CSI shows.)

Yeah, because anime isn't derivative and unoriginal at all... :shrug:

I doubt many people would find all the stuff on prime-time NBC/CBS family-friendly. :sweat:

I never said that. What I am saying is that if we want to have good anime shown, I think it's much too early to expect a prime time showing of adult oriented anime any time in the present "FCC conservative" controlled media.

Gale,

True but that's why ABC generates numbers too.
