	Personally, I like(d?) K-F's unregimented release schedule--it was like an unexpected present every time I went and saw the magical "Newest release" updated. But, yeah, wank off the port bow there. ::is glad she finished DLing the K-F output a few weeks ago instead of putting it off like she did Peacemaker Wackyshinsengumigane:: (Reply to this)(Thread)

I finished downloading the last of K-F's stuff just as the licensing was announced. I'm really amazed by their stuff, as I'm from the generation of yay! we have fansubs now! They're iffy on translation and say "fuck" every other sentance, but look! Japanese commercials!

Peacemaker Wackyshinsengumigane

Please tell me that's the actual name of a series. (Kurogane, right?)

	I heart Peace Maker Kurogane. Especially Saizo the Attack Pig. And Harada. Mmm, Harada. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Saizo doesn't fly. He's more like P-chan from Ranma 1/2, except he never transforms into a highly annoying male teenager. (Reply to this)(Parent)

LOL, I share that sentiment. I was going "AUGH MY EYES."

The thing that sucks about this 'historical' manga is that you know most of the persona these characters were based off died early/horribly/whatever, so like... it's kind of a morbid anticipation just to see how the manga-ka is going to off them all off one-by-one.

I definitely am not lookin forward to Susumu being executed as a traitor. x.x

	Peacemaker Wackyshinsengumigane Oh God...I'm so dying...rofl! XD Kurogane's the best. Even if Tetsu's kind of annoying, there's Susumu and Tatsu to tide you over until he stops. ^_____^ (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

... but... but... Tetsu's kind of hot when he gets older.... <--superficial much? nah!

Actually, IMHO, Tetsu gets so much more interesting when he gets over his issues. That's when Tatsu actually starts to bother me, as he seems to pick up issues from the whole Ikeda-ya incident (and Tetsu's involvement in it, no matter how minute).

Still, I'd love to see Tatsu kicking it with a gun. Mm, Ueda-san goodness.

	shinigami_co 2004-06-12 06:40 pm UTC (link)
	Yes, yes, I agree, Tetsu becomes a sexy beast later on. And Tatsu gets more annoying. But, in all honesty, I watched it for Susumu ass and heavy Hijikata/Okita overtones. And the fact that I've never seen such an adorable Shinsengumi as Okita. XD ...and the fact I'm a Shinsengumi whore. Shut up! ^_^;;; (Reply to this)(Parent)

	They had this freaky one where everyone in the friggin country turned into Goku due to cellular phones or something. And the dubbed American commercials? Grrrrreato desu! I still want to know what it is they say after showing anime openings. It sounds like something about Sponsers and Christmas. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	kyuuketsukirui 2004-06-12 06:53 am UTC (link)
	They are saying sponsors. Goran no sponsor no teikyou de ookuri shimasu = This program is brought to you by the following sponsors. 御覧のスポンサーの提供でお送りします。<- if you're interested in the kanji. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	kyuuketsukirui 2004-06-12 08:14 am UTC (link)
	LOL, yes, I knew that's the bit you meant by "sounds like Christmas". It's sad that despite not having watched any Japanese TV for years now, I still remember that phrase off the top of my head. And I hear it in this female announcer voice, too. :D (Reply to this)(Parent)

Whoa....Somebody needs to take it easy on the caffeine. I adore K-F as much as the next One Piece fan, but damn. They don't need ~~Wankers on Their Behalf~~ Holy Defenders.

So the website had some difficulties at a bad time, and a fan got understandably paranoid. In the immortal words of Bart Simpson, "Don't have a cow, man."

Please, OP Fandom, quit letting 4Kids steal your collective sanity. ~~And quit making the rest of us look stupid.~~

	The best thing is that the girl from K-F doesn't even WANT Holy Defenders. I love the bit when she lays out what goes into a subtitling production, and SS hops right in and screams, "SEE? I TOLD YOU SO!" Tee hee. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
