Well thats nothing new. Corruption goes all the way back to the beginning of civilization.

But to each his own. I've always been into Japanese and Chinese history myself.

Ok, I've just finished it and I thought the ending was perfect...although I failed to understand the role Mello played in it...*dumb*

Used to be an anime freak back then, but onyl with like DBZ, pokemon, and Gundam.

Still like Gundam (I'm a sucker for mech). Have alot of the games. This one I'm still playing, MS Saga: A New Dawn is ****ing-tastic. It's an RPG with little or no ties to any of the Gundam series as far as the story is concerned. Check it out.

I've only seen;
The original Gundam (Have the three movie English-subtitled set)
Gundam 0080
Gundam 0083
Char's Counterattack
G Gundam (found some old recorded tapes of them and was laughing my ass off)
Gundam Wing

Only other anime I still like is Cowboy Bebop. Wild, man.

back in high school I used to collect anime.....I was trying to collect all of the classics. I had Akira, Ninja Scroll, Demon City, Vampire Hunter D, Record of Loddess War and Slayers. Even though I wouldn't consider Slayers anime classic though.

What do you guys think are anime classics? I'm thinking about continuing my collection

Inuzuka Skysword · 01-09-2008, 07:27 PM

Akira is definately a classic. Speed Racer is a classic, though I don't really like it. I think Monster will become a classic because I think it has one of the most complex plots in all of anime. I am trying to think of the name of the first mech anime, but that was a classic too.

Mello kidnapped Takada, and Mikami found out, so he dug up the real Death Note that he was hiding to write her name. Mikami was being followed by Near's people, so they found out where the real DN was which allowed them to switch it with the fake one.
