Gah, what a time to forget everything I knew about kidney stones.

As I recall, it isn't the high calcium content in spinach alone that does it. I think there has to be another factor present... but I can't remember what it is.

*Must look this up later or something*

Holysmokes... Janette found some episodes of Tokyo Mew Mew online. It's amazing how much less annoying the characters are.

I've also fallen in love with the themesong... I thought people didn't write music of that style anymore... *happy sigh*

I used to love anime when I was younger, but nowadays I'm very picky about what I consider good and what crap. There are so many things that I hate about anime.

For example, I hate it when the characters turn into chibi all of sudden. It's understandable in a pure humour series, but I can't stand it in series that are supposed to be serious. Take Rozen Maiden, for example. How am I supposed to take the tense and angsty main plot seriously when there is an episode in which the characters have a silly foodfight? Confused

I also really, really dislike the humour in most anime. It's just not funny. I could go on and on, but I don't think this thread was made so that I could vent about my dislike for various anime elements.

I actually like Digimon, Pokémon (especially the movies), and Vampire Princess Miyu. Samurai Champloo is also good. What stops me from getting into various anime fandoms is that most fans I've met are elitist idiots. I'm sick of being treated like a close-minded fool just because my favourite comics are W.I.T.C.H. and Batman, so I keep my distance.

How much anime have you watched, exactly? o_0

Sailor Moon was a truly groundbreaking series in that it started the mahoujo/sentai genre, but calling it "the best anime and TV show ever" would be a bit of a stretch in my opinion.

If you like Sailor Moon, you might enjoy anime like Mermaid Melody and Tokyo Mew Mew.

Anyone know series like Candy Candy, Nils Holgersson, Lady Lady, or Makiba no Shoujo Katori, just to name a few? I've fallen completely in love with older anime from the 70's and 80's because of the charming art style and lovely stories in many of them. I love this kind of style, but this only manages to annoy the heck out of me.

Don't forget W.I.T.C.H. I haven't seen the cartoon, but the Italian comics are really good (I'd go as far as saying that they're my favourite comics in the world). That series also has lots of magic girl influences and similarities to Sailor Moon, but I hear the comics and cartoon are very different.

Yep...i've seen Winx Club, Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon, and W.I.T.C.H., and Sailor Moon is still my most favorite. Wink

I haven't watched Magic Knight Rayearth before. I looked it up in Wikipedia, and, well, it's looks pretty good, but not as good as Sailor Moon.

Has anyone seen "Ouran High School Host Club"? I've only seen a few episodes, but it's a pretty funny show.
