Ahhhh... parents wanting laws instead of parenting... I'll never get tired of this.
I guess there will always be people who keep on wasting time doing these kind of things, instead of using it to educate their children, teaching them what's good and right, and making sure that they are watching, reading, and playing stuff that's actually aimed for their age. But hey, I guess that's a lot of job for these nutcases.

And I like Inu Yasha and Ranma 1/2... unsure.gif

You're not doing yourself a favor with that statement. ph34r.gif

Well, actually they might be.

BANIME!!
Just remember kids...
+ + = EVIL

I see Slade's point though, the popularity of Anime has caused more traditional styles to fall out of favor. I do miss Looney Tunes...

I watch Inu Yasha, and I think it's pretty good. Not as good as Kenshin or Trigun, but what is?

Series as good as... hmm... let's see...

Bleach
Full Metal Alchemist
Watanabe's great three: Cowboy BeBop, Samurai Champloo & Wolf's Rain
Shakugan no Shana

And could you please stop that ridiculous "Inu Yasha = teh awesome" talk? I might concur if you'd say "the idea behind it is good, maybe even the first season". But after that, the Ranma 1/2 disaster just repeated itself, meaning the company smelled easy money and produced one useless season after another, in which the stupid dog and his irritating compagnions get nowhere at all and fail to develop what little character there had been.

Makes perfect sense to me, but the laws replaced as "authority," and demeaning people by it. Also makes sense to use reasoning and not one sided excuses to what someone else states. What difference can it make when people are not told sense but allowed to do as much of something they want at a certain age or position?

The concern could have been expressed with more facts to prove what they are saying. Video games can lead to the less experienced or less knowledgable or less thoughtful people commiting murders they copy from the games, due to not knowing what is right from wrong as proven some time ago on some murders of a newly released game that was banned in some places after.

Gobbler: Alright, you got me... Samurai Champloo is the goods. BeeBop I have always loved, Alchemist is good too.

But Inu Yasha is not so bad... there are worse. Like Yu-Gi-Oh or Tenchi (which was good for a while, but after the trillionth incarnation, got a little stale), or Duel Monsters, Etc. etc. etc. I'm not saying it's brilliant, I'm just saying it's not the worst. biggrin.gif

Alright, then that's settled. But please do me a favor and don't ever mention "Yu-Gi-Oh" in a sentence which might lead to the illusion of it being an anime again.

And there's nothing wrong with Duel Monsters, as it was solely intended to poke fun at all of those crappy comercialised series.

I even like One Piece or Poke'mon better than Yugioh. But it should have it's own sentence. Like this: Blah blah Anime blah. Yugioh.

Henceforwardeth: Yugioh. Gets it's own sentence. The end.

I never did care much for anime. But, personally, I'd ban it for being stupid, Not ban it for being evil and clouding childrens minds with bad stuff.

No one here said that Inu Yasha was awesome. Some people just expressed that they liked it. Why is that a bad thing?
And just for the record, from that list of yours, I also like Cowboy Bebop, Wolf's Rain and FullMetal Alchemist. The other three, I never had the chance to watch them yet. But if I want to watch some guys walking inanely through fields for seasons and seasons looking for something or someone that they are always close to get but in the end it always escapes them, I'm damn sure I'm gonna watch it!
And the avatar, was a joke.

Yup. I like Inu-Yasha actually. Well, I like the game Feudal Combat. And I like pissing off Inu-Yasha fans by calling Sesshomaru... SESSHY MCGESSHY!
