You know to be completely honest they guy was kind of hard to understand what he was saying at that point so i could have gotten it wrong but that is what it sounded like. Just saying don't be surprised if I am wrong at that point. |

I walked away Saturday night with the LS shirt, a Gundam shirt, and that Scrapped Princess LE vol4 (for answering a trivia question). The surprise panel was probably one of the weirdest industry panels I've ever been to.
But then again, when Hironobu Kageyama tells you to put on a serafuku and dance, you really have no say in the matter. |

Hot damn, CG R2 is gonna air immediately following the ending of season one on Adult Swim?
Awesome. Really awesome. I mean... I really DIDN'T expect this to happen but... Wow, just a really good call. And the core drill replica will definitely be a selling point for me for the bilingual version of Gurren Lagann. I'll hold off on the sub only releases for now... |

The Stand-Alone Complex cast will be dubbing the movie, but it's going to be a brand-new dub, not the one used for the R2 release of the movie. |

I'd like to point out that the Silent Mobius films were not done in the 1980's. The first film was released in 1991 and the second was released in 1992. The manga didn't even start in the 80's, but also in 1991. Hate to nitpick, honestly, just wanted to point out the error.

It's not like TV Tokyo has anything against violence and such in the show, one only needs to see Bleach to understand that. The editing that was done on Hayate took what was, in effect, a comedy show about anime and such and turned it into a 4kids abortion of a show before Al Khan even had a chance to get it! |

I was pretty much under the impression that the censorgoblin was essentially part of the show. There were occasions when it censored things that obviously didn't need to be censored at all. It was, in fact, a parody of censorship (kind of like what Cromartie High School did as well). Maybe if you didn't realize that, you wouldn't have liked the show without it, either. |

The censorgoblin (and belvive me that's a false name I use in polite company) is at worst a tool to render a show's tv broadcast unwatchable and a cheap marketing ploy to make people go out and buy the dvds (In japan, god help them) and at best a "joke" that isn't realy funny. I meen, wouldn't it be HALEIROUS if every time in, say, Haruhi, any shot of Mikuru in a compromising position and/or every impact of the Nagato fight scene was censored by a huge blast-off goblin with a sign saying "CAN@T SEE THIS!" or simmilar? Realy?! HALERIOUS ISN@T IT?! Censorship is not a joke. It's serious gosh darn business. Except when it meens people expliode into showers of Coins instead of blood in No More Heroes, because that is made of win, awesome and River City Ransom. Edit: and before anyone asks, any scene in an anime that had no intent to show the offending scene what so ever (such as when the entire male student facilty lost thier crap and thier clothes in Seto No Hanayome's sing off episode or any time anyone's privates are covered Auston Powers style or even the entire broadcast of Excell Saga episode 26) does not fall under my ire. Those are obviously jokes that are blatently obvious. |

Umm, voluntary censorship-kun was a running gag in Hayate-no Gotoku. He was present in the broadcast, present on the R2 DVD's and most definitely WILL be present on the US DVD's, unless they somehow go to the bother of re-animating all those scenes. I would be more upset if they went to the bother to get rid of him for the US release, the version we get in the US should be equivalent to the Japan DVD versions, which featured an option to bleep or not bleep certain Japanese pop-culture references, and that's about it, in terms of 'censorship'. |

Disregard whatever Loli-pedo nonsence was on in 2007, that doesn't even compare to a show that plays teh same damned joke over and over again. Christ, why did Bandi even bother with this show?! They would of been better going with Kodomo No Jikan! |
