If some of you guys idolize or wish for anime women in real life then I suggest from central Russia ... of course with out the purple hair color

I'm sure she'd be willing to bleach and die her hair for a chance to come to the land of opportunity.

In Mother Russia, hair dyes you!

I'll write a book report once I'm done reading it for myself. Would you like it double-spaced?

The animation females are either white or asians who have predominantly white features ( big round eyes, larger racks, taller, hourglass figures, etc etc etc) Kusanagi has an asian last name, but she looks caucasian.

I think this has less to do with certain cultural forces at work than simply the experiences of the creators and writers of these series.

I have to disagree. I think cultural forces are exactly the reason why many anime females tend to have caucasian features.

As much as the Japanese are proud to be Japanese many of them go out of their way to look less Japanese. The greatest example of this is the eye surgery many Japanese women undergo to "fix" their "chinky" eyes.

And let's not forget the whole "kogal" craze.

Hudson Hawk?! LOL

God that movie was HORRIBLE!

This is probably the most bogus awards ceremony ever aired.

Durr. It's on SpikeTV for God's sake.

Ridge Racer-7 for PS3 !

Woohoo! Next-gen power-sliding madness!

The Automotive thread shouldn't be used to rag on a cheesy-ass movie. It'll just be distracting.

Check out the Daicon IV stuff in there.  It's a good book but it was too much money for me to purchase.

Yeah the Daicon IV opening (with screencaps) is the first thing they talk about in the book.

Did you click on the link I provided? Amazon has it for less than $40.

Oh yeah. I forgot about that one. So 2 pics makes me gay, huh? Meh.

And why should I care if this thread gets closed?

Woohoo! More tacky-ass stickers on the sides of cars!

Never saw the TV Series, though now I wish I had. What channel did it run on anyways?

Dude, since you're posting all these gay related pics, aren't you saying something about yourself.

What? That I'm perfectly secure with my heterosexuality and that I can laugh at sh!t like this?

And what other "gay" pics have I posted?

BTW, did anyone go to UFC 59 in Anaheim this past weekend?

It's all the rage, apparently.

whoa... does the man have no bounds?  What's the story about anyway? :-p

The movie is not being directed by Hayao-sensei but by his son, Goro.

Earthsea is Ursula K. Le Guin's fictional world and the setting of some of her short stories and novels. Apparently the movie is based on the 3rd Earthsea novel The Farthest Shore.

Here's a brief synopsis (of the novel) from wikipedia:

Throughout Earthsea a strange malaise is spreading. Magic is losing its power; songs are being forgotten; people and animals are sickening. Accompanied by the young prince Arren, whose true name is Lebannen, Ged, also known as Sparrowhawk, now Archmage of Roke, leaves the island to find the cause of the problem. After a journey which takes them to the literal end of the earth, and into the land of the dead, they confront and defeat the mage Cob, whose magic has opened a doorway between the worlds. But Ged must sacrifice all his power to close the breach.

A new trailer is up for Gedo Senki.

I loved the Earthsea books when I was a kid. Can't wait for this to come out!

Their clothes fall into the category known as "urban".

A little off-topic but for all you UFC fans:

I doubt synthetic women could even give you STDs considering THEY ARE SYNTHETIC!!!

This made me laugh for some reason.

"If you do not reply to this email, you will have the same fate as this girl."

If you eliminate periods, you eliminate a reason for women to act like total bitches.

What woman would want that?

"I'M GONNA BOYCOTT ANIME EXPO!!!! But only if I don't want to go."

LOL

As for Kusanagi's period:

Hell if I know, it was there, but if Motoko only has a few human braincells,

where do all her human emotions come from? and what does a combat

ancyboroidoid thingamabobz need with those

It's one thing to know that you're no longer completely human, and another thing to know that you're no longer human.

As far as we've seen, there are no "other countries" on Earth, post-Space War I. With humanity reduced to a tiny fraction of its prewar population, the UN Government is the Earth's only government.

What the Penguin said.

Lots of hot lesbian sex.
