to pick a flower TweedleKeys Heh. I've seen cel collectors rationalize with the best (worst?) of fandom over their 'right' to pirate anime but I've never heard any use the argument that because they bought cels from the series that was enough. It's kind of amazing that despite the fact that you'll find some dense people in every niche, everyone knows they're not helping the creators at all by buying cels (unless it's VHD:B because those cels came out via agreement that was planned out beforehand.) Of course, I stopped reading every single post on the boards a few years back, so who knows what's been used as an argument now? I still regret not buying one of those cels of Ranma wearing black I saw when a huge hoard of them with backgrounds came out way back when. Those ones looked really nice to me for some reason.lol. back when ranma was i guess. more popular? i was about 7 at the time ( i was in second grade when i first saw it but about 8 when i started my chores so they would buy me tapes). my babysitter introduced me to it. i had never seen any other anime before. i had seen sailor moon once before, but at the time, until i was about 10, i didnt know that anime was different than normal cartoons. i wish a lot of the time that i had never found that out.. i think i didnt know what a cel was until i was 14. xd When large quantities of cels (or drawings) come out and when a series is popular is not necessarily related. Sure popularity and therefore high prices can convince more people to let go of things, but I don't think this was that. The release referring to happened well after Ranma's prime in Japan and even in the US.

Streamjumper TweedleKeys Streamjumper 27 VHS's? That's about 3 seasons. 3 of the 7 seasons, not even half of the broadcast material. And one of two movies and 12 ova eps. Not even half the material. Closer to a third. Grab it if you believe you must, but given the AG's origin you're in the wrong place to be casual about it or argue that you're entitled. More than a few of us here have bought just about the entire series on VHS... solely with our own money, and we wouldn't even begin to rationalize downloading it. Hell, a few of us actually own cells from it, theoretically owning far more of the series than most ever will, and I'd bet good gold they wouldn't consider themselves covered as far as downloading it. Heh. I've seen cel collectors rationalize with the best (worst?) of fandom over their 'right' to pirate anime but I've never heard any use the argument that because they bought cels from the series that was enough.

Those ones looked really nice to me for some reason.Just so you know, I'm not talking about all cell collectors, just the ones here in the AG. I knew. I was just amused by the rationale. smile Owning a piece of one's favorite series is important to me as a cel collector, but somehow you voiced it in a different way than I had really thought of it. Also: Iron Giant, I love you. You and Laputa-bot can hang out with cute birds by my house smile

Okay guild, brace for epic. I know I haven't been around much lately, but here's an important update;
I fly back home on Thursday morning. Katrina's days off work this week are Thursday and Friday. We're going to see Sweeny Todd on Friday. I asked her last night if we can call it a date. She said yes.
I mean this isn't revelatory, we're in love and counting the minutes until we see each other again. But this is vindication, this is the culmination of six months of knowing her. I've earned the respect, trust, affection, and love of the most unique and incredible woman I have and likely ever will meet. Thursday needs to come faster.
