Braiger, Trider and one other, whose name I forget, have their own subseries name but I can't remember thename of it. Like how GaoGaiGar is a Brave Robot, Raijin-Oh is Eldoran and most of Sunrise and Toei shows are Super Robots.

A friend gave me a thumbdrive full of old DOS games.
Hello Karateka, it has been far too long! Oh high Civ I and all the Wizardry and original Ultima games!

Man I'm hoping for a 2nd/3rd string batch of Marvel heroes to team-up so we can get the Defenders. Have them fight Woodgod or something equally lame and I'll buy like 3 copies!

I was bored with Board being down and ended watching the first half of Chicago Fire's first season. Now I'm looking forward to watching the rest of it. It ain't the greatest but it is very watchable. Chistopher Eigenberg as Hermann is by far my favorite character. Its kinda like the family friendly version of Rescue Me

I'd just like to say Zac-Fu is the man and I think Rippa will agree with me!

The problem is, if they had called it anything BU Gatchaman it would be ok with me but they slapped on the name of one of the greatest of all time. I mean it takes the concept of "Alien technology aiding humanity" from the original series but the designs are just so awful. If they had maybe done a direct sequel to Gatchaman Fighter, with the original team returning to Earth decades after their death, then maybe I'd be on board but Gatchaman isn't teenagers in powered armor. Taking the "science ninjas" v. Global Terrorist element away is like taking the martial arts aspect out of Hokuto No Ken and using that name to tell the story of a boy who owns a dress shop trying to save it from his brother that wants to make the store into a giant chain of dress shops.
My earlier comparison of Gatchaman CROWDS is to Kagaku Ninja Tai Gatchaman as Chouja Reideen is to Yuusha Reideen is spot on the money so far.

Tanahashi hasn't won a G-1 yet right?
I mean he doesn't need it but I can see him winning it to set-up the October defense

I'm about to sit down and watch Gatchaman CROWDS actually... I'm already boiling over with rage from having seen the character designs and opening!
I'm already seeing this as like Yuusha Reideen v. Chouja Reideen (right down to the armored suits)

Braiger OP
BRHQjqtojwI
Its one of those early Super Robot/Sc-ifi shows with a team of mercenary/super spies being given a Super Robot to bust intergalactic crime syndicates. At least that's the concept. How well its executed... well ask dogwelder.

Man, Braiger was one of those shows I've always wanted to watch based upon how often I used it in Super Robot Wars. That and Trider G7

Bebop had a pretty strong following in Japan doing well with the Animage crowd but wasn't what what you'd call a mainstream hit. It really was the defining work for Yoko Kanno though.

I've often thought what it would be liek to be a mod but fear it would be just used for petty vengeance...IIt would take a great deal of self-control. Its like being the Battousai on the net...

I've pretty much given up except for reprints of older material like the Aparo Batman hardcovers and Showcase collections of old war comic (though that first Sgt. Rock volume is out of print and insanely expensive). DC has become Marvel in the 90s, a sick bloated beast with everything dictated by 3 key people and Bob Harras. You've just replaced Defalco, Gruenwald and Potts with Didio, Johns and Lee. I preferred the former over the latter. Can DC's own brand crippling of Marvelution be far behind?

Finally past the half way mark on Gardens of Moon. You Malazan pimpers should be very proud of yourselves. I'm utterly hooked!

Until we know for certain that the old DVDAR thread will be restored, I figured this would do just fine in the interim. So let me start with this: I've been emjoying the hell out of Yamato 2199, I mean sure I know the story backwards and forwards but its such a damn love letter to Matsumoto and Nishizaki. Hopefully it ends here because the last thing we need is a remake of Yamato 2.

Its not that it is all crap after season 4. There are just a lot of improbable thins after that. Season 7 is a rebound season and it is mostly carried by Alan Alda being awesome!
