6 Things I have learned by watching Lost Universe (the anime) - one for each disk that was horribly mangled by ADV:

1) Food is a euphemism. So is cooking.
2) As long as I keep repeating "You're the best cook in the universe" I don't have to actually TRY the chicken flavored icecream.
3) Even non-lost ships, which have to obey rules like gravity and inertia can have normal, porcelain toilets (that work because of GRAVITY).
4) The best way to lay low, while wanted by ALL the galaxy police, is to wear a brightly colored jacket with a high collar and dark sunglasses, muttering to myself - the entire time - about hiding due to the fact that I'm wanted for treason. And then walk up to the first galaxy police officer I see, and identify myself. And then take her out to dinner. Apparently.
5) Even if I am Evil-Psycho-Bitch, if I am female, I am a co-dependant weenie.
6) Much like the Gigaslave, the SwordBreaker's soul-eating, ultimate attack can, at the last minute, be stopped by a ditz who swoons after someone who completely and utterly fails to acknowledge said crush, with no consequences AT ALL.

Tehee. Time to watch the last episode now! :eg:

Hmm...possible spoilers in this post? *shrugs*

Indeed. I've decided that the last episode makes NO sense AT ALL. x.X; I can see where they were going, but...they REALLY needed to explain it better.

On the other hand, Kane apparently doesn't kill himself, so he can continue to avoid eating chicken-flavored icecream. Not that I can blame him there, really... I mean...I know she's supposed to be the best cook in the universe, but...ew!

So yeah, pretty good series, apparently has almost nothing to do with what I've seen of the manga? O.o

That wasn't what the ;_; was for. >_<

I don't remember 'chicken flavored icecream' c_c Maybe its cause I didn't know enough Japanese when I saw it raw... but... somehow I think I should blame ADV for this? x.x

Kane had corny lines like 'find a new skipper', didn't he? ;o;

God I hate ADV. >_

Hmm...I don't remember that particular line, but then, I only had to suffer through the first 3 disks dubbed, and then I watched it all subbed. By ADV, true, but I don't think they were TOO far off. Mostly. Of course, I speak no Japanese at ALL, so...what do I know? :shrugs:

They did, however, give Kane a comic book hobby, so he could insert random references, like Harlock Saga. I counted three in the first 3 disks. ;_; Since when I watch something dubbed, I at least have subtitles going at the same time so I can compare, I noticed that the sub didn't have the stupid comic references, and BLATENTLY contradicted the dub on more than a few occasions. *sigh* But yea, cute series, I can only pray the re-release fixed the gross problems. ADV has done SOME good stuff, recently... -_-

Rereleases! ;_; *_* Maybe! I hope so! ;o;

They fired the guy responsible for the first set. It was that badly done. Ask Kirs sometime. c_c
