Re: I'm a sucker for these things called "Animes"
So, for the past few years I've been a joker/athlete kind of guy who wrapped himself around sport and such. Yeah, I also love shows like Lost and CSI. However, over the past weekend, a friend of mine from up north introduced me to a Japanese soundtrack by a composer naked Taku Iwasaki. I was immediately hit by it, and I jutted to youtube.com straight away to see his original TV shows.Not to my surprise, the man did soundtracks for animes. This one in particular was called Samurai X (Rurouni Kenshin) and I must say, after watching the entire thing, I was floored. Not in years have I been hit so hard by that of film.Soon after, while being bored on a Sunday afternoon, I decided to revisit some Anime roots with Dragonball Z (We've all seen it). Again, to my surprise, the show which I once thought was gay I now feel is pretty entertaining. I've made it part of my schedule to see an episode or two a day (They're each only about 20 minutes) I just thought it was so strange for my entertainment choices to change so much int he course of a few days, and my respect for Anime raised ten fold. Anyone else the slightest bit interested in Anime?f*cking Japanese people!

As for anime, I'm not into it. It's a cultural phenomenon for some. I have friends who are into it and DDR. Both seem to go hand in hand.
Just kidding...Alot of people like anime I guess. I used to watch Dragon Ball Z like 5 years ago..
