You know the funny things was I saw the show first, liked it, then read the manga and saw how much better it was, then suddenly hated the show. Still liked Kizuna though.

Too bad that series never went anywhere. I thought it had potential and the character design was gorgeous, though I was badly irked by the absurd gratuitousness of the female protagonist's neko ears.

Those Neko ears were what got me interested. mostly because the episode I first saw, she hid them and I was surprised when they were revealed.

Okay you are totally missing the connections you were where supposed to make. Second pic is comedy. Third pic is sadness. Honestly.

The first one is funny, but I cannot fathom why would you expect Metantei Conan to be like FMA 0_o nor why it seemed Fruits Basket-y to you

I think he's referring to the relative quality of the dubs. :B

EDIT: Or was the Fruits Basket dub fairly good too? I forget now. :| Huh.

[font="Trebuchet MS"][SIZE="4"][color="RoyalBlue"]Actually, I was referring to how similar the dubs are--I expected the dub to be heavy on the cast used in FMA, but instead they pulled directly from Fruits Basket.[/color][/SIZE][/font]

Okay, maybe that's a LITTLE extreme, but you have to admit that Tamers got WAY dark for a Digimon series (which is why I love it so!)


Who ever that is in the last picture has the biggest chin ever.

A lot of these are funny to a point, since I don't know enough anime to understand them XD

Ah, I wouldn't have known. I'm one of those snob purists that wouldn't watch dubs even if forced, Clockwrok Orange style. :P
