A world where only women can pilot mechs? Sounds like someplace I'd enjoy.

That's what makes it so strange that Kazuki, a male from a parallel universe, can operate one...

ROFL! He didn't want to pilot it that bad! The worst he ever did in the gender-bending department was have to dress in drag so people wouldn't realize he was a guy piloting those mechs...even that didn't take though (which is odd considering how much he did seem to enjoy testing the pair of bulbous shock absorbtion units on the chestplate of his female-disguise pilot suit).
Enchantress2 said:Hopefully they never did check-ups for the pilots, otherwise they would find that he had a little more equipment than was required.
And what does ROFL mean?![]()

Well, the top-level brass knew...unfortunately, it was a poor-kept secret, and most of the people he met in drag knew it was him, and laughed themselves silly. After that, he refused to do it again.
Awww, he enjoyed doing it and he knows it.
It's internet lingo for Rolling On Floor Laughing.![]()
Ok so I picked up Samurai X the motion picture and it wasn't all that. The first 5 minutes was amazing then it just went flat. It was pretty much just another episode of the series that was 90 minutes long. It did have some really good moments but overall it was nothing special, just a little better animated episode of the series. (Oh yea the dub was horrible).jdavis said:
For reviews on all the Samurai X OVA's and the movie:

I've only seen the Trust and Betrayal Director's cut and it was very very good. Reflection is supposed to be depressing (and sub par storywise) but the movie is supposed to be ok. I'm sure eventually I'll pick them both up. Trust and Betrayal is definatly not one to be missed though.
Waiting for the Berserk manga already, I'll be happy to grab the Kenshin ones when they come out too (I'vealso heard the Manga was much better than the anime (which is pretty good).Alzrius said:I just finished the manga series, which was damn great - everything I heard about those last few OVAs made it sound like it didn't hold a candle to the manga by comparison. You'll be happy to know that Viz has announced that they'll begin releasing Rurouni Kenshin in America come November. Remember that Viz no longer produces monthly comic books, just graphic novels. Depending on how often they release them though, it could take anywhere from a few years to several years to get to the Jinchuu ("Revenge") arc with Enishi.
