Ugh, I hate people: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/20825559/ This just completely reeks of hypocrisy. These people supposedly believe in teaching kids about tolerance yet gay and lesbian couples don't deserve to be treated the same?

I am aware that this is a children's show, and that there is no disagreement on the fact that monarchy is bad. It's just that it disturbed me on how it assumed that everyone would be willing to submit to Serenity, and its portrayals of such monarchistic societies as utopias, which is surely off. It...

Sailor Moon is this little thing called fiction: as in it's not real, fake, a figment of someone's imagination. It's target audience is little girls who dream about being princesses and being saved by a handsome prince (or in Sailor Moon's case, doing the saving themselves). I think you're taking th...

What I want to know is why is there like hardly any yuri fanboys out there? It's like you always hear yaoi fangirls obsessing over some new generic BL manga and complaints about yaoi fangirls slashing every bishounen character in sight but you rarely ever hear anything about yuri fanboys. I think th...

There was one horrible Digimon fanfic that crossed over with Gundam Wing and Sailor Moon that I read a really long time ago but I can't remember what it was called or who the author was because it's been ages since I've read it but I can still remember all the details about it. The fic was centered ...

Its Shounen-ai..? My friend was lucky enough get get a copy of the game, and I don't remeber any shounen-ai when I played. But Ididn't make it to the end, so I'm not sure. I guess I shouldn't be relying on what youtube claims. ^^;; I checked the Wiki article on it but they don't really have a lot o...

Yaoi fangirls are officially scary creatures. I just came across the opening to this Chinese fanmade FMA shounen-ai game. x.X http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WNHOUvB57tc As much as I enjoy slash fanfiction, that's taking it a little too far. Although now I sort of want to play this. >>

I'd rather have Geneon license it and dub it with Bang Zoom. Although their boxsets are a little more expensive than other companies, I've always enjoyed the quality of their releases and their licensed titles that have used Bang Zoom for dubbing have always had fantastic VA quality and their previo...

I like PGSM Usagi the best. Anime Usagi has her moments (mainly when she tries to forgive her enemies) but she has moments where she's almost too immature to me. It's as if Sailor Moon continues to mature but civilian Usagi becomes progressively immature. Like in one episode of SuperS where she accu...

While no episode is identical to the source material, episodes 1 and and 8 did follow the manga accurately for the most part. The majority of the changes to those episodes were just scenes that were added into the anime but the basic plot and characters are still the same. However, with episode 10 R...

I think it's entirely possible that Takeuchi-sensei did have some say in what happened in the anime, just not overall say in what happened. I guess that makes sense. CLAMP didn't have total control over the anime adaptations of their series but Nanase Ohkawa still wrote the scripts for some of the ...

Takeuchi's Control Over The Anime
Many Sailor Moon fans claim that Takeuchi had little to no control over the anime and that she hated how the anime was handled, but I've never seen any official source for a quote of Takeuchi saying she disapproved of the anime or that she had no control over it. I was re-reading the Sailor Moon man...

I have no idea how this scene played out in the original Japanese version since I never saw it subbed but I doubt Makoto was putting Usagi down. But even so the dub having Lita making a snarky remark like that seemed pretty random. :roll: In the Japanese version, Makoto said that they wouldn't have...

I don't think it'd be all that difficult for the Sailor Moon anime to be remade to stay closer to the manga. Another example of an anime being remade to stay truer to the source material is Hellsing. When Hellsing was first adapted into a TV series, the anime started off following the manga pretty a...

I finally finished reading LOTR after reading it for a year now. That's one book I don't plan on re-reading for a very long time because of just how long it takes to get through it all. I've now started on His Dark Materials: The Golden Compass by Phillip Pullman and the first volume of the Crest Of...
