thanks for the reply...

keep forgetting you reply on your own wall,
fansubs are a gray area when it comes to copyright infringement, many anime makers actual welcome fansub groups translating their anime, as it reaches a wider audience, other thing is you have to wait for the english release to ship to SA wile all your friends spoil the story for you, LOL

Same here. Except I have always known about japenese culture as my moms old best friend was from japan and her son was my first friend. So that has always been in my life. She was going to teach me to speak japenese. Oh Black lagoon is actually serious. The second season is more on there characters than there jobs.

I do however have a major crush on my avatar chick old revy

Not yet. I will check it out as soon as I can. However I know quite a bit about it though, like your avatar is from it.

For me I like the more serious Anime's as well as the ones that contain a mixture of elements (action, comedy and such). Cutesy comedy Anime I can handle, mood depending.

Overall I am a huge fan of Asian culture, specifically Japanese. So I would consider myself and Otaku.

If you have not seen black lagoon then get it. Very awesome show.

Hehe yeah I know the feeling don't worry. I may go this weekend and pickup something from Animeworx IF I have the time. Any suggestions?

If I had the cash I would rather buy it ofcourse.

Thanks Tsar will check it out.

Like I even said in a topic that got out of hand with Lycanthrope. I am pretty flexible about piracy / similar but there is a line. But I certainly agree with your situation as long as when you are making some cash again you put at least some of it into one of your loves, Anime. Often it is just so easy and convenient to downloading something that human nature takes over even when one does have the means to support it. It also feels so retarded when someone loves something and they do not support it monetarily when they can, and instead use "creative" excuses.

Anyways thanks for the links!

Here is a anime forum. It is a very active and friendly place.

At that website. The eps are only 60mb and they are just as good as a 135mb eps. I even got a 150 1080p. I would buy them but I am out of work. I personally don't think it is wrong as long as you are not making a profit from it.

How do you get your Anime just btw Tsar? Don't worry about saying you download it because honestly buying boxsets can be ultra expensive considering what you get. I know it is wrong, but hey that was my weakness. Used to buy like 70%-ish boxsets and the rest were fansubs of Anime that was not licensed yet. I would make concessions for something that I was seriously interested on occasion.

Sadly now with 3G I cannot download shyte really... BUUUT, I have applied for a new line and Telkom are looking to install ADSL here again.

Have not read the manga so I am not sure. I have only seen a few eps. So far it is awesome.

I want to get the anime but for now I am reading the manga instead. So how is the anime? The manga is pretty sweet so far I must say. Does the anime deal with the whole Harvest character and the black dandelions or is it following a different story altogether?

Could not help but notice your avatar. I am currently watching darker than black.

Have not watched the Anime in question but it is called - Darker Than Black. I have heard good things about it though.

Sadly like I mentioned the recession has hit my habits hard. Have had to make some cutbacks, however, I needs meh games >_<

Also had to stop getting comics as well as manga, but it will change at some point I am sure. Seems these days I am buying more games than ever, so never any real spare cash

Maybe I should get a bud to get some fansubs, but I feel a little weird about them because I would be a hypocrite concerning piracy. I am not anal when it comes to piracy, but in general I feel it is off. Hell I hope I do not start a war here for saying that! Take note - anyone who disagrees can do so but I will not rise to the bait.

ooh you replied on you wall, I do too

now why does your avatar seem familiar?

Hoo-Ha! That's right! What an odd Anime. But I love that style of Anime, you know, the ones that don't explain everything rather leaving you to think at the end.

Sadly because this recession my Anime collection is not growing since I have had to make some cut-backs... sniff...

Ergo Proxy!

Hehe seems we keep meeting like this! Seems we have a LOT more in common than I thought
