CAA: Christian Anime Alliance

Thanks to ClosetOtaku for the review!

http://www.christiananime.net/reviews.php?display=104

Possibly the most confusing show in existence, though I still haven't seen Elf Princess Rane.

i actually understood it. i liked it. i thought it was cool except for sum parts that were really unnessesary(spell?).

Man, I wanted to do that review! *pouts*
And could I add something? I know we're not supposed to question reviews, but this is a rather serious mistake. I have the soundtrack to FLCL, and I know for a fact that almost all of the music is done by a J-Rock group called the pillows. The "groups" listed (Runners High, Fool on the planet, Happy Bivouac, Carnival) are all either songs by the pillows or names of their albums.
EDIT: Mamimi's video game is called "Fire Starter" not "Endsville" which is the name of the city you burn down in the game.

Oops, double post.

I was wondering about that...the Pillows doing the music. Also I'm guessing "Endsville" might be the orginal version and they renaimed it to "Firestarter" for the dubbed. Im just guessing. I havnt seen it in Japanese.

Excelleent review though!!

*checks for CD listings* Looks like ClosetOtaku inadvertently called them the artists when in fact they're the song titles. I've tweaked the review slightly.

No, you're correct, I goofed. And it is a rather serious mistake. I need to go back to the DVD booklets, though, and see how I misread the tracks (I think they are listed as song titles only, and I interpreted them as song title - artist).

As to Endsville vs. Fire Starter: I will re-listen to both tracks, but if I titled it wrong, I'll put in a correction.

Sigh. Sorry about that.

And -- very honestly -- I don't know what CAA policy is, but if AngelSakura (or anyone else) wants to put up their own review version as a comment, is that permissible (not taking to task the original review, but stating their comments in the same format on their own)? If that isn't supposed to happen, I'd still like to see what your take on the series was.

EDIT: Indeed, always read the small print. "*Song Title / Album (or MaxiSingle (M)) Title" -- I read it incorrectly.

And, yes, the game's name is Firestarter. Request for corrections submitted.

Changes incorporated.

does any one know the name of the cat that mamimi's always holding and does any1 know where to get pics of the cute, lil guy?

my version of a computer kitty---> >^..^<

Mamimi calls the cat "Takkun" (one of several characters who inherit that pet name throughout the series).

Some images I found: http://www.synch-point.com/production/flcl/charac-takkun.jpg, and http://anre.org/oaf/ep-2.php.

are those the only to pics? cuz i have both already. i really like Takkun! he, or she iono what, is soooooo cute >^..^< -mew!

Oh no, there are tons. Just call me the FLCL Freak, because I can get you any pic you want!




...probably.
I'm too lazy to dig though and crop the original, so just take this button for now. I'll get a better version later.

yah, thanx but i already have those. thanx tho!

Not that kind of confusing.
