Science Ninja Team ATTACK!
So much animeness yesterday. I watched a random episode of Ranma with Ryan, which was amusing. Much as one would expect of a random episode of Ranma. Amusing, but I'm not dying for more or anything. :p
Nasty evil mean Bill played... disturbing THINGS at the beginning of the meeting. Evil mean nasty Bill! Then we actually watched anime and generally glared at Bill. :p
First up was Getbackers, which I'm still quite fond of. I'd already seen the episodes we were watching, so I wrote Death/Death while still half watching. Yay only half reading subtitles!
Then we watched Yami no Matsui. Ryan turned around and stubbornly read Sandman instead. :p Poor boy is really not a fan of shounen-ai. Even though we still TOTALLY caught him shipping Kei/Goh last time we watched Pretear! :p I enjoyed it, at any rate. :p It's very pretty. :p
After that, we were nice to Ryan and watched Love Hina. I half watched and wrote Death/Death. I still managed to follow everything that was going on. We made many jokes about the fact that Ryan's living arrangements for next year vaguely resemble a harem anime (except, of course, for the part where Ryan already HAS a girlfriend who ISN'T going to be living in that house... yes, I refer to myself in the generic third person! :p).
Finally, we watched... Gatchaman. It was so HILARIOUSLY awful. It had a team of superheroes in these HIDEOUS generic superhero costumes. There was a bird motif, which meant jagged capes and pointy helmets! :p The best part had to be that they were the SCIENCE NINJA TEAM though. How can you NOT love something that's terrible enough to have a SCIENCE NINJA TEAM? :p
Incidently, Goblins? Just switch the designated update date to Sunday and stop lying to us! :p

And when something happens, it's the most tramautic thing of all time ....... until the next week's episode. Tatsunoko's idea was to make a more realistic, violent anime with it, but it's still quite cheesy. There's supposedly an overall story, but it takes like 150+ episodes to get to it though 0_0
And of course, they're main villan Berge Katse is just a messed up pile of wrongness. He-She's got issues.

There's also been 3 dubs of the first season- the 70's Battle of the Planets dub [which had earth posing as alien worlds- which all happen to look and act just like earth!- and added an R2D2 Ripoff, and his robot dog], and a dub made by Turner Broadcasting in the early 90's called G-Force [less editing, but with horribly cheap synth music. And ADV's new dub.
Then there's also Eagle Riders, a dub Bandai made of Gatchaman F, the 2nd series

There's also a comic adaption of BOTP planned by Alex Ross [who did the new DVD art] http://alexrossart.com/ and a lot of parodies and references in other shows [Nurse Witch Komugi-Chan cosplays as them in her show, a recent disney TV show with kid superheroes had villans modeled after them, and Megas XLR has characters mocking them and the Power Rangers]
