I actually enjoyed the fight, it pretty much shows Kira wasnt in his A game. I liked the bright-noa style punishment athrun unleashed in ep35 even more, could have done that to shin 10 eps ago.. looks like the shits finally gonna hit the fan,and things are looking up. I look forward to SEED mode athrun dealing the pain in ep35 with a Gouf.

I have a program that will help you with the kanji if you know the basics. Shoot me an Im at coffeen64@aol.com and ill send it to you.

havent seen scalations of wangan midnight anywhare myself. I would be tempted to translate it myself, except that its a bitch to read(yes ive tried,and no i dont suck.), even with my measly 3 yrs of japanese classes that ive taken. btw ever hear of a manga called King? seems pretty intresting, its about this guy who swaps an impreza engine into his honda CRX.

Agent-Ghq: LA's got good stuff of cource, its just down here in sandeigo theres slim pickings for import stuff.:/ i think the best ive seen down here, was a store in the mall that carried an over priced 1/60 yammie CF a yr or two ago. and Weclome to San diego.

Agent-Ghq:by main page, i ment the macrossworld main page, not the page of that website sorry. As the macrossworld main page has quite the comprehensive list of macross products, especally older stuff. you might be able to find more info out on the puzzle there. Secondly,i read in the conventions forum, that your down in SD, i have a question in SD do you know of any good shops for anime/macross merchindice, up here in north county its a bit!ch to find anything.:/ otherwise good luck in your quest.

The thing with Char tho, Is Char was never really loyal to any side, he was mearly advancing his own Agenda, be it in MSG Killing off the Zabi's, In Z gundam, fighting the titans, which he saw as an oppressive force, in CCA Forcing Humanity to evolve into Newtypes. he was always fighting for what in his mind was right. Athrun however has no agenda, no strong beleifs to guide him forward, in many ways he is like amuro in Z gundam, before he gets his fighting sprit back. just kind of there. and unlike amuro, athrun certinly didnt get the short stick in the mecha department. perhaps when athrun returns to AA he'll get his fighting sprit back?

Unfortunately price wont do you good,as the product is listed not in stock however the 4,179 yen is roughly 38-40 depending on the exchange rate. also the year it was made is not listed on the box/page. your best bet is to hit up the main page, and check out the sections of macross merchindice there, im sure that puzzle is listed(im too lazy to look myself).

I have to give it to shin for being quite the creative bastard. The shield move was simply awesome, along with the yelling at meryin to launch silouette packs as airborne weapons platforms. Kira was simply pwned. true freedoms seen worse,and argueablly Kira would have done better not having to deal with 20 million bacows and other assorted ZAFT ms while dealing with Shin and impulse. but fact of the matter is, Kira just wasnt in his A game, we'll have to wait for strike freedom for that. But seing that Kira and Mwu tend to make the impossible possible, i expect a good chunk of freedom to be intact when cagali/murasame crew pick his carcass up. AA was barely scratched, they also have been through much worse. Although we dont know if the blast from minerva hit them. they do need to get the helmsman in a MS, i swear everyone in the minerva crew sh!t bricks, when they saw AA do that roll. the "sorry" from the AA helmsman at the end of that stunt was a nice touch. As for athrun i expected him to jump ship from minerva right that second. but he needs to find out whats up with dilundal. I hope we get some more awnsers when it comes to Mwu soon.

its basicly a Super diminsion fortress macross jigsaw puzzle, 1000 peices. forms a picture of around 48 x 72 centimeters.

this should help you convert/upload a mp3 to your sprint phone, it works for mine, which i beleve is the same model Sanyo PM-8200. http://rumkin.com/tools/sprint/faq/index.php?Topic=all#qcp

I second the notion of having the logos guys go out in a hit, godfather style. as for the EA/logos, i want to see some effective aces, i want to see an EA equivlant of freedom piloted by one of the aces backed up by Mass production destroys reaking havok upon happless ZAFT cannon fodder.

Hrm looks like lacus wont be doing any MS "shopping" while at plant, but she has her own store of MS for everyone. I didnt expect the doms to be clyne faction, this is good news. I hope the new "black trinity" arent a bunch of red necks, and do more than just get offed by an ace(Ie:i dont want darth shin offing them,and i dont want them to die a pointless death like the cute astray girls in seed) and pretty much spells out why Dilliundial would see Lacus as a threat. Goulfs and Doms, hopefully some Zaku warrior grunts,all under Clyne faction, thats some nasty stuff. also that says nearly without a doubt that IJ and SF are clyne faction produced MS. I wonder if she has a Minerva class Ship under her sleeve as well, since Eternal isnt exsactly geared for MS transport like AA and Minerva are. As far as i remember from SEED Eternal is specificaly made for Freedom and Justice. also while were at it i second the hope Mwu/Neo gets some sort of a DRAGOON syestem equipped MS. on the subject of eternal, i wonder how much has been upgraded, since we havent exsactly gotten a good look at it. As for the EA, now that theres logos out in the open, whats the point of even having them around in the story? hopefully logos gots some effective MS in there arsenal, Mass produced destroy's would be hella cool. along with that werid Spider MA that appeared in one ep. And damnit, lets hope logos's forces dont turn into another getting pwned by ZAFT cannon fodder. although from the spoilers, it doesnt seem like its gonna happen. looking forward to ep34.

Another posiblity is i athrun actually makes it to AA with legend in toll, and somehow it ends up in mwu/neo's hands. and Athrun then gets the IJ. and rey in turn gets a end of the series funnel equiped MS.(the ed tells us diffrently, but then again IJ isnt in the AA picture in the Ed, only SF) even tho, we all likely know this isnt going to happen. also anyone catch the smile on shin's face after the empor...erm chariman made his speach. i think we all know whare this is going.

Hrm. So athrun does indeed end up with legend. funnels dont really fit athrun much. also i wonder how bad AA gets pwned in the next ep? considering minerva if its at tip top shape outguns AA, and is like twice the size.AA has more MS tho at this time,although from the next ep preview it looks like its pretty much kira vs shin, and AA and minerva are engaged in a ship to ship battle and on earth none the less.Something of quite a rariety in gundam series as of late.

Hopefully Mwu doesnt end up with the freedom hand me down, im all for the morgenrate upgrades freedom hypothosis. as for the OS issue if say Mwu did end up with the freedom hand me down, if the Red frame oav and Lowe's skill with astray red frame is any indecation im sure morgenrate/orb can come up with an OS that would let Mwu, especally considering his newtype ablities utilize freedom, sure not as well as kira did but still in quite the formidable state. If Mwu is Mwu,i think fukada will go with the cheap deus-ex plot device of mwu just having his memories whiped clean, that way they can get mwu in the cockpit of andy's murasame on the asap, since Andy's prolly going to end up baby sitting lacus on eternal for the rest of the series. even tho this is likely,i still hope for a late series funnel equiped MS for Mwu. As for the EA, i want to see mass produced distroy gundam's damnit, the ZAFT pwning everyone thing has to end. and like ive said previously,i think itd be damn cool if minvera and her crew turned "evil", as one thing you notice in the op's is a theme of duality, the AA encompasing one side, Minerva on the other. We already know athrun is going to defect, and shin is going to the darkside. Me thinks sadly Lunamaria is going to get offed in impulse. Strike Freedom, other than the fact it name is stupid is starting to grow on me, as is I-justice. On the subject of freedom, even tho this is more suited to the Plamodel thread, what is the current best Model kit of freedom out there now? the MG or the 1/60 scale freedom kit(a upsided HG no doubt, like the 1/60 Non PG strike).

Hrm. if normal pilots can use the new dragoon syestem. then that kinda has me doubting Rey will be the pilot of legend. even tho everything else points to him getting it. otherwise, i really hope the Minerva faction/group/what ever term you can call them turns "evil" it would be kind of a nice twist, one that could almost make me forgive the non-direction the series is in right now.Especally considering shin seems to be following a path of a certin sith lord, and Dillundal's got some tricks up his sleeve(also like another well known sith-lord) not to mention Talia and rey likely are allied with him. I hope neo is mwu, id be nice to see the man who made the impossible possible back in action. hopefully AA/Lacus do some additional mobile suit "shopping" for him,and we get an additional late series funnel equipped mobile suit.

Actually, im half tempted to bust out my SDF macross tv dvds,and the few roboatech dvds and compair the dialog.:/ otherwise I still think its funny HG after all these years is trying to pass off roboatech as somehow suprerior.

hahahahahahaa. roflmao. makes me wonder if HG actually hired/had translators in the first place and if said transltors spoke japanese.

Hrm. Japanese female names for cars. I dont have J-ime on this work computer so no kanji but here.the (ko) in the following names below means add the ko to the end of the name if you want, as japanese female names often end in ko(the kanji for child), and some of the ones i mention are common examples. and if you choose to learn japanese down the line, its funny what alot of these names translate as, it would make you think the japanese are a bunch of hippies especally with names like aiko(Ai in this case meaning love and Ko in this case meaning child).heh anyways here goes. Yumi(ko) Kana Maki(ko) Hitomi Yoshimi Emi Rie(ko) Eriko Yui Atsumi Aika Aiko Ai Hope that helps.

Im not an LA native(i live down in SD), but i do venture up there on occasions, aside from the resturants mentioned there, i recomend brotha's which is located in gardina somewhare(forget the exsact location a friend me showed there) the meat there is mmm good to say the least,and the prices are good. also in Little saigon, there's lee's sandwiches, which makes for good filler food when your out and about. $1.99 sandwhiches, you cant go wrong. As for macross stuff little tokyo look you must not. for manga/anime in LT kinokuniya(overpriced like a mofo, cause they set there yen to $ rate once per yr), anime jungle are your two best bets. however even better for manga is book-off in torrence., which is a japanese used book store, which carries a ton of manga, very good if you can read teh nihongo. Also located in the torrence mitsuwa, is Asahiya book store which is good for japanese magazines and manga(again a little bit overpriced, since they set there exchange rates once a yr). for valks, your best bet aside from frank and sons is china town(located sort of to the east of little tokyo), theres a store in one of the mall buildings there called neo happy land, which in the past ive seen carry 1/48th's and 1/60's, there are a few more toy stores in the same mall that ive seen carry 1/60's as well. I dont remember the prices offhand, but its worth a shot.

quick question, whare can i get a harvest moon cow? =D

thanks for the tips. I assume thats San deigo county proper. and not north county right? up here the pickings like i said are slim. im gonna see about hitting up toys r us this weekend tho.

Contiuning my lack of being able to find gundam toys, anyone in the san deigo area have luck finding Gundam toys/models in normal retail channels ie, not a store that deals specificly with anime. im talking places like wallmart etc. So far in my search ive only dug up a HG RX-78-2 and a MSIA Strike. any info would be apreciated.

The only SEED toys ive seen, are the active and deactive strike MSIA. in a local rite aid none the less. I bought the active strike, but i was pissed that it lacked the alle strike pack. other than that i havent seen anything. i would love to pick up the astrays, and the Arch enemy Alle stike, but alas no whare in north sandeigo county has ether..

http://rumkin.com/tools/sprint/faq/ this site has an uploader, and depending on what format your phone supports you can do various types of ringtones, most only support midi typically, but there are newer phones out there that support .wav and .mp3 Since i have a sprint phone, ill explain how to convert files into .qcp, which is qualcom's proprietary .mp3 like format, which will give you "real" songs instead of merely polyphonic midi tones. Right now, i use a kamen rider 555 ringtone. first go to the above page, and select the the info for .qcp, what you will need to do is first convert the mp3 to .wav or use a wav, next open up a .wav editor like cool edit pro and change the sample rate to the one listed on the page. here is also whare you'll boot gain and stuff like that in order to make the tone louder. Next just drag and drop the .wav into the converter, and it'll generate your qcp. next enter your sprint phone number into the uploader and upload the file(works the same way as an E-mail attachment) for non sprint phones, i think you just enter your phones e-mail address. Ether way it's the best way to do ringtones,without buying special software or dealing with expensive ringtone fees. Now to make a team america ring tone...
