Yeah, I was going to add that to my last post......... Anyway, I did a bit of research for you android and this pretty much covers what I've found (even though it's a forum post).... So yeah it looks like you would have to propose your ideas to some big company in order to get some SERIOUS financial backing... :-/ And Athri if that is really all this thread is then atleast people are actually putting some effort into proving there point.... Better then a lot of other threads I've seen in any case. :-/

They aren't that long........ They just look like they are cause the text area is really thin. :P

Apart from you know, Spirits Within which easilly destroys Advent Children graphically.......... ^^;

Grebe I wasn't talking to you about manga I was speaking to Pedro as he implied that all big anime fans should have to read them in order to be considered such. As for the Mario example maybe it was a bad example...... I was just pointing out that when you are faced with a franchise you don't have to enjoy it in all formats..... It's like some people would enjoy reading the scripts/storyboards of an RPG but would enjoy playing them....... Some people like me prefer to watch anime over reading the manga.... I mean one big thing that manga lacks is the great music adding to the tension. :-/ I do admit however that pacing is slightly better in manga compared to some anime, but, I can get over that. *shrug* So yeah, if you are a really big anime fan, and prefer anime over the manga, why would you read the manga so you already know the story before you see it in your prefered format. :-/ It's not that smart a thing to do in my opinion...... Maybe reading the manga afterwards is a nice thing to do sometimes to see what's been cut/changed, but, even then it's already lost something as you know whats happened....... Saying this I watch anime more then once usually....... Hmmmm it's hard to explain. Bleh...... Oh and as for why I was reading Chobits, well I have seen half the anime and I was at my girlfriends house after we had just returned from picking up her childhood friend who had run away from japan (that's right cross country runaway lol) and yeah they were speaking japanese, I was confused, no subtitles, I was forced to read. :P

First of all, what does reading manga and watching anime have to do with each other? They are different formats of the same thing...... It's like saying that if you like Mario games you have to like the Mario film.... It's stupid..... I'm a massive anime fan, but, I'm not so big on manga as in general I'm not much of a reader and never have been........... Although I did enjoy reading Chobits, but, that's another story........ Moving on, why do you believe that everyone shouldn't enjoy anime with easy access just because you had to "work" to get them? I mean tbh you didn't really work in the first place........ The people who subbed the anime worked...... You just sat down and watched your computer download it........... Really you should want more people to watch and understand the things that you have grown to love, it's the reason people decide to be an animator/artist in the first place. :-/ Now onto subs and dubs. Personally I love subs..... Most English dubs are uninspired, boring and to be honest just sound a bit funky.. O.o What anime have you watched in Japanese? Cause I've never watched one that fits that description and I've watched some very low key anime. :-/ And now Japanese doesn't flow smoother than English in general no language does, go out speak with your mates and damn it flows perfectly. :-/ BUT, with dubs it sounds so forced and stupidly out of place that yes you could say that Japanese in anime flows better, it's kinda like reading english lyrics to a japanese song and trying to make it fit. :-/ But yeah, I've heard what you are saying before and I'm pretty sure you get on very well with one of my best friends.... :-/ Anyway, going on to the original post by 18... I think it is something that's really needed in England/Europe, but, there is a massive start up cost to think of..... Do some research into licencing costs as well as advertising costs, they really are shocking..... I'm pretty sure for a show like naruto it would be well into the millions. :-/

Ermmmm I found out that the dude who designed the London Underground map went to my uni........ o.o Other then that it's been pretty good. |^_^|

XD I've been waiting like over a year for someone to finally say that to me......... This......... This....... This is the happiest day of my life! ;_;

Me and my girlfriend went to the doctors today....... Found out she can't get a chicken pocks (sp? o.O) vacination as she is already pregnent and she is yet to catch them due to a vacination when she was young..... At the moment we are kinda hoping she is still amune so we don't have to worry every time we see someone with a possible case............. Ermmm yah that's just about all that happened... :-/ Really should have just refered us to the hospital OVER THE PHONE as that's all we actually went there for. ;_; So yeah.... Much fun today. >.>

I don't smoke, never will, don't want to........ People say the benefits are that it helps you relax.... The reason you are so crabby in the first place is cause you're body is fucked due to your nicotine addiction.... So yeah, you are smoking to stop a problem caused by smoking which in turn makes you ermmm......... Die. :-/ Great idea people. o.o

That's for the nice comments everyone.... I will indeed post baby pictures and get him to post a little message for you alll......... It will probably go a little like this "iufsiiihfsdofihhhoishodddmpds jdgihh g[pot " so yeah look forward to that.

The memory on this one is outstanding....... XD

Personally I didn't vote as I couldn't pick one person for every catagory.... After being around so long and meeting so many people it's kinda hard just to come out and say this guy was the best for whatever reason. :-/ Oh and the best ever group would easilly be the group of guys that joined in with Abundant....... Most people won't know or give a crap about what it was, but, they were a great group of people who put time into something that ended up just being a memory. ^^ I salute you all!

Great work by everyone involed in designing the new site you really did a great job.

Yah, don't worry, I will give updates on stuff and baby photo's will be shown. ^^;

Grhhhh damn AMN trying to take over the we.............. I kid..... Welcome to our familly. =P

To start, this is a thread I made on the C-E elite boards before I was sure what I was going to do: "Hmmm so I'm sitting here thinking about stuff and I might have come to the conclusion that when the boards change I will be no more.......... You see, in the past weeks a lot of things in my life have been changing and to be honest I don't know if wasting my time on a forum will be a viable option anymore........ The main problems stems from they fact that I have discovered my girlfriend is pregnant....... So yeah baby for me in 9 months....... This along with University (yes I'm still going, gotta get a good job in the future for that baby) and work (I'm going to working pretty much all the time I have left over from University) seriously will be cutting down on my time wasting hours..... So I've been trying to think of some things to cut out...... Now, whilst I have wasted many hours in here, once the forums change I don't know if there will be anything holding me here which makes time spent on this forum a good choice of things to cut.. And whilst you may think to yourself I haven't been posting here recently anyway, it doesn't mean I haven't wasted time reading posts. >.< So yeah, basically the 16th september might be my last day on Cube-Europe... Atleast for a long time....... So yeah, this could be my last meaningful post ever....... If I do go, thanks for the great times, if not thanks for more to come (even though there will be less)....... I just thought I should say this here for now, and maybe ask for it to be moved to gen chit-chat later. That's all for now. DarkCloud" So yeah, basically, at some point in the near future I'll stop posting on the forums, but as I said later in the thread, I'll come back and give updates on stuff or whatever. ^^; I just thought I should post this all here now as the old forums are ermmmm abandoned. ^^; So yeah...... That's about it.
