Well I will warn you ahead of time then that I will probably quite late on Thursday as I have to go some some incredibly awful poetry reading - in Spanish! I'm not quite sure what time it will finish so will just turn up when it does.

I'll try and make it there for about 7. It's in the SU you say?
BTW I got a Hudds uni SU card, will that work? I thought SU's were universal?

Cat, if you have an SU card that should be fine.
Wavey, see you next time then. And bully your friend into coming, too.

Hi, I'm sabrina in real life but in pretend internet life i am usagi (or sometimes bunni_senshi)
I like anime. I hate american dubbed anime with a fiery passion, especially when gay relationships are changed to suit dumb americans (i.e. uranus & neptune)
I'm not huge on combat robots in space and stuff. I like girly girl stuff like chobits, sm, love hina, rbhs, onegai sensei/twins, popotan, pitaten ect.
thats about it for my introduction.

What? You're not a fan of kissing cousins? Interestingly, most of the "girly girl" stuff you mentioned was created with men in mind. In particular, Popotan is based on a hentai game. Sorry ^^; Welcome to the forum~ You rock because (a) you're a Sailor Moon fan and (b) your name and avatar come from my favourite SM character. Woo! ;D

Hee, poor dubbed anime, it suffers such hatred... ;P Admittedly, many dubs are bad, but there're still some that rock. ;D

*didn't make it to todays showing :0(*
I think dubs would be much better in real english rather than pretend american 'english'.
i think the voice i hate the most is the american usagi in seasons S and super s of sailor moon.
Can anyone think of any more rubbish voices?

I've never seen that, so i cant compare, but the one i know that annoys me the most is Vash (trigun). The original voice is perfect for him, Y did they get such a crap guy to sub him!

Linda Ballantyne (Usagi/Serena in Sailor Moon S and SuperS) is really quite bad. In contrast, I think Stephanie Beard (Chibiusa/Rini in the same seasons) is incredibly good. You win some, you lose some. The worst dub voice in all of Sailor Moon has got to be Fish-Eye. If they went to the trouble of changing his gender, why did they pick a voice that sounded like a man talking in falsetto??
I find it hard to give too many examples of bad dubs, because Sailor Moon is the only TV dub I've ever followed properly, and in general I think most uncut made-for-DVD dubs are pretty damn good. For starters, X and Chobits are both pretty much perfect (the X TV series of course - the movie dub is awful). I also really like the uncut dubs of Escaflowne (despite some questionable scriptwriting), and Excel Saga (Jessica Calvello may be shrill, but she's SO funny!)... among others.
The uncut dub of Sailor Moon S and SuperS is highly amusing sometimes. In particular, the scene with dialogue that refers to Fish-Eye as a woman... right after he's taken his top off and displayed his obviously male chest!

...Yami no Matsuei had a horrible dub. Or maybe that's just me. But Dan Green was a BAD choice for Tsuzuki, Eric Stuart ruined Watari by doing his James voice, and Hisoka...well...I don't know who did his voice, but he sounded like he had something wrong with him. xp (...though maybe it was the Yugioh dub which ruined it for me, since Dan Green was Yami Yuugi, and Eric Stuart was also Kaiba...) Either way, it's painful to watch. (And what on earth did they do to Gushoushin's voice?) But on the other hand, Kyo Kara Maoh!'s dub is pretty good, Saiyuki's is awesome, and I have an odd fondness for the GW dub. XD (...and I always thought the Outlaw Star dub was better than the original =P)

Awww, I'm disappointed, when I read "Hisoka" I thought somebody else had seen Hunter X Hunter, but I guess not

Hey all,
Didn't see this before, my name's Gaz and I came along to the AIR marathon on thursday which was cool, I really wanted to see the whole thing back to back.
I'm a student over in Bradford at the moment and I'll be working in the area next year so with a bit of luck I'll be around to attend next year (providing i can get into the SU).

Hi Gaz,
Glad you enjoyed the Air marathon. Don't worry about the non-SU card thing, I will be making sure that our outside members can get in no problem.
Hope to see you next year!

Which one? The cartoony one with the chilli dogs, or the darker cyberpunky one, where a bunch of animal freedom fighters lived in a forest? Both were excellent in their own way, although I think the cyberpunky one is the best Sonic cartoon I have ever seen.
No need to mention Sonic underground. That sucked.

Hello Jordan.
Nah, I think the original sonic was better before it went all cyberpunky and the theme tune was changed... but yes, Dragon Ball Z rocks and so does pokemon
