Nadesico on Toon

[gcutler]

Z'Loth, Did you get a chance to see Martian Successor Nadesico on Toon? Like I had read it was an Anime Spoof on Anime. I like that one of the reasons they picked the Captain was because she has a really nice rack. And first question the Leader of the Expedition asks was "Is This Pay Before or After Taxes". And everyone on board has "slight personality problems."

Too bad that they are playing the 1st, Middle and last episodes in the 3 episode run. I'm debating on not watching the last episode until the rest of the episodes appear (hopefully) but since it is most satire, I think it will probably not destroy the storyline. :D

Can't say much about Nadesico, since we are only getting the "sampler" pack from ADV films.

However, they did a lot of trimming on evagellion, including changing the beer cans to what appears to be soda cans. Plus, PenPen was missing.

Okay, here is a list of edits from Nadesico:

* Sort Of Like A Fateful Decision (http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/columns/edit-list.php?id=124) (aired Tuesday)

Jeeze, Some of those cuts are just silly, even for a 4pm showing. But if you look at the GI Joe, no one ever died (with all those bullets flying). I remember in "StarBlazers" in the late 70s that they made sure they said "Robot Tanks" whenever the Human tanks were destroyed.
