I think I read that shark meat tastes like crap and that the shark fin is the only edible part.. and the fin itself has no taste. If some chef out there can come up with the idea to squeeze eggs out of a fish and call it a delicacy, they should think up some other new delicacy to replace shark fins. \

I'd love to check them out live.

I bet its a bloodline thing. The middle name D might represent a clan? or a heritage? That one captain/giant that was at Ohara had a 'D' for a middle name too. It makes you wonder how Oda will connect everything in the end.

Welcome to AC! btw, I edited out your link as per our forum rules.

The look on everyone's face.. X'D I didn't see that coming at all. X'D

Adama and Starbuck are my favorites. They're bad asses. Lee used to be one of my favorites, until I saw him in season 2.. bleh.

I noticed those pictures only showed "his room" so I'm assuming he lives with his parents. Without having to pay rent or utility bills, he probably goes outside to work or get food.. and so his entire life is enclosed into a single room.. scary. btw, I noticed he was lacking a girlfriend to pose in all those pics with his collection. X'D

Welcome to AC!

We have a dvd set of samurai deeper kyo. its pretty good but the fights were nothing compared to kenshin.. all the fights always ended with a power move that required no battle animation. and the last battle was dissapointing. \ I heard the manga was way different and much better.

I love that spiderman pic! thats some real skill to recreate a scene like that with completely different characters and nail it so good.

I just watched episode 93 and the fight with Rukia vs. the bounto was pretty good. I must have missed how Rukia didn't have her soul slayer, because I'm pretty certain she used it in a fight on earth. but nonetheless, it was good to finally see a fight where a bounto actually battled along with their summon.

I loved this movie!!! It was a good constant movie with no filler scenes to kill time. The fighting was good and the plot kept me guessing. For it to take place right after the skypiea stuff just added to my enjoyment.. they were still using the Merry Go... The animation style was very similar to the water 7 arc, but with some good improvements, extra shading, more fluid movements and of course some completely unnecessary but well enjoyed boob jiggling. Has anyone else seen this yet? and what was your favorite scene?

We have a fansub forum with all the links and info about how to get them. You'll have to be a member longer to gain access to that forum tho. btw, movie 6 sucked ass compared to all the other movies in plot and animation. The animation style of movie 6 was just plain horrible.

That fanart with itachis is bad ass. and that akatsuki pic is good too.. that guy with the venus fly trap head freaks me out tho.

I really liked the episode with the Asurans. These enemies could be pretty awesome, even if it does feel like they just rehashed the whole "Replicators" idea from SG1. These replicators have been living for possibly thousands of years.. they are highly intelligent, they know all about ancient/advanced technology, maybe even made some of their own, they can even make zpms.. I hope they utilize these enemies and bring them to the forefront of the series.. because I'm honestly diassapointed with the Wraith. I have a feeling they might save these guys for the upcoming season finale.. what do you think?

I like how SG1 turned to the whole galatic struggle concept.. by pitting the Goa'ulds in a struggle of system lords.. and now in the latest season they have the Ori vs. pretty much everyone. Theres more spaceship battles and they emphasize the use of spaceships and the gates and the importance and uses of each. But they aren't doing anything like that in atlantis. Everything is pretty much, Wraith this, Wraith that.. and "oh no, a hive ship is coming." Now some of the wraith are starting to attack each other, some power struggles between themselves.. but I don't see were this is going in relation to Atlantis. I honestly wish they would find another zpm and get atlantis off that crappy planet and go exploring. If all the wraith find out again that atlantis is still intact, they'll go after it.. but that won't happen if atlantis isn't a sitting duck on some misc. planet. I think if they got atlantis moving like how the Asurans flew their own copy of it, I could see the story line progressing more interesting. As far as I see it, almost every planet with a stargate in that part of the universe is nothing but culling ground for wraith. If the atlantis crew wants to have a better chance at finding other advanced species or possible allies, they have to travel to planets without gates on them. What do you think?

Most of the major manga companies will have a couple free chapters online. Go to tokypop.com or viz.com to see what they have. Aside from that, go to our fansub forum and post a request for whatever manga you're looking for. Someone might have a link for you or there might already be a couple links posted.

Even if someone were to hook up a ps2 to a monitor the resolution would look like crap. Dreamcasts were built with a monitor hookup feature and many games were made with monitor support, they had a little graphic on the corner of the manuel. but ps2 games don't have any support for it.

I don't know about the reencoding stuff.. but ripping, compressing and copying some dvds takes a shit load of time. 9 gbs of free harddrive space, 50 minutes and two failed dvd burns later = pain in the ass. x_x;

I think Zoro scowls too much to be hot. Nami on the other hand.. nice.

I found two tutorials that both use free programs. One is for mac: http://howto.diveintomark.org/ipod-dvd-ripping-guide/ and the other is for windows: http://www.engadget.com/2005/10/14/how-to-convert-a-dvd-for-your-ipod-with-video-in-windows/ I have no idea how well either of them works.

The straw hat pirates keep coming across more powerful enemies as they continue their journy along the grand line. But with their recent encounter with CP9, I'm wondering how CP9 would have held up if they made it to skypiea and had to fight enel's priests. I think enel would have completely killed all the members of cp9 so I'm leaving him out of this. Same with Lucci.. he alone would have probably killed every priest with ease. So, the rest of cp9 vs. enel's priests. Who do you think would win? Would sky warefare prevail? With the cp9 members being able to move at extreme speeds, would that matter to the priests with their mantra ability? they could just see all their movements before they even do them.. and do you think an impact dial could penetrate some of the cp9 member's tekkai block?

I just hope they don't imply more real-world political connections. IE: Cylon occupation of New Caprica = US occupation of Iraq.

yeah, its been a while.
