Well....Sealab 2020 was bad T.V., and the update is a vast improvment....does that work?
Dragonballz never works for me. Endless posturing before mindless fighting, and its enters my list of bad Anime.
Bad...bad Anime! No audience!
As for good Anime...watched Spirited Away this week, on the Library dvd.
How many synonims for awesome are there?

Feerless Freep said: "Reign" looked pretty cool plotwise, but the character drawings always seemed a bit weird to me; reminded me a lot of "Aeon Flux".

Thats because they are both creations of Peter Chung who also has an episode on the Animatrix . I woke up late at night one time while Reign was on and i thought i was having a nightmare, though upon watching it again the show wasnt scary in the least

I kinda figuerd they were from the same person, so heavily stylized like that.

I just can't get into anime, no matter how hard I try.  I don't know what it is, it just isn't my thing.

I agree, it is poorly drawn and I dislike how they feel we have to see the  Men as total kids. Hwever, it is much better than the Justice League series and the story line is pretty well done too.





The few martial-arts animes they have on now (the

You are referring to Inuyasha, a great show that I suggest you watch more of

Do you think they will ever put the dubbed versions on DVD???

Also, you didnt tell us what you thought of Home Movies

"Home Movies" is the one that the early episodes were in "Squiggle-vision", right? Squiggle-vision irritates and distracts me, it seems a cheesy like a way of giving the impression of movement even when it's not needed. I hated "Dr. Katz" for the same reason. Maybe I'm just used to the cost saving measures of some anime with limited movement, where so many scenes have little more than the mouths moving. I hate stuff like "Dragonball" and its sequels and the various "BeyBlade" and "Yu-Gi-Oh!" type series, but I understand the reason for using the technique.

I couldn't get into the show itself too much, too "postmodern"  for my tastes, I guess.
