I still haven't opened the Vision of Escaflowne box set that I purchased.. It was very expensive so I want to make sure that I won't be dissapointed.

If you have seen the series, please post your opinions about it in this thread. Thanks!

Please avoid spoilers.

Also, is there another series that you would recommend over Escaflowne?

I already posted this same topic in the 'Suggestions' forum, but I was worried that alot of you wouldn't see it there. Hope the mods don't mind a re-post.


Question for JunkieJoe:
Can you order import-anime action-figures for cheap like you do with DVDs? If so, I think that alot of us would be interested in purchasing them. =)

Here are a few pictures of Anime Action figures to get you interested:

Trigun





Love Hina









Berserk





FLCL

In the Gundam Wing description, it mentions the colonies are called "Sides"

That is not true. In the other Gundam series they are sides. In Gundam Wing they are known as Lagrange Points, hence L1, L2, L3, L4, and L5.

Just thought I could get that fixed so not to confuse people.

What I wanna know is how Guts gets out of hell in episode 25. I think the tv series should have shown us that. Episode 25 leaves you kind of hanging. Also does anyone know if there are any sites on the net where I can read the Berserk manga?

does anyone else have a problem with the screen shifting? the subs stay put but the animation shifts all over about every screen transisition...is this set just crappy? the transfer looks nice, if only it didn't fricken move!!

I ordered the Anime Cartoon version of evangelion TV set and besides the crappy shifting screens, the menus are all in chinese! Is this typical?
thanks in advance

Bah! I got up all early this morning so I could watch Hamtaro this morning for the first time.. It's on at 7 AM, right? 7 AM Eastern, that is.. I'm in mountian time. =P So I got up, read the boards, showered, got all ready to watch the show, sat on the couch, turned on the TV, and.. RAAR. It wasn't on. =P I guess I'll try and remember to tape it tonight and watch it tomorrow morning. That's really annoying though.. Now what do I do from 7-7:30 when I leave for work? Watch some Fushigi Yugi, you say? If you insist. ~_^

I get paid tomorrow. After paying back my parents, I should have $130-140. Here's what I plan on getting.

Kenshin TV 2 (Mi)
Kenshin TV 3 (Mi)
Slayers: The Motion Picture (AS)
Slayers Sound Bible 1 (Music CD)

Okay, here's where I'm not sure

Rayearth 2 (AS)
-or-
Record of Lodoss War: OVA (FX)

I want to know what you think of these choices, and by that, I mean, like, sound wise, graphic wise and such. And yes, I did look at reviews, thank you
