Great show, as usual. The intro was beautiful and the rest was amusing.
I honestly don't know much about this (or any) anti-whaling group, although they sound insane. But, what do I know? Ya, whaling is a problem, but it's also not necessarily the whalers fault, like these idiots seem to think. Fishermen have to earn a living too. Besides, in this day and age I've got to figure that there is better, less harmful, and LEGAL way to work on this issue. But, once again what do I know?
As far as these celebrity deaths are concerned, I guess this is evidence that even in death, famous people will always try to up-stage each other. Don't get me wrong, it's a tragedy for those involved, I just wish the media would stop covering Jackson's death like it 9/11 all over again. Yes, he was famous and now he's dead. Boo-hoo. It's not like there is anything else happening in the world. *cough*Iran*cough*
Okay then, funny captions... this probably isn't what you guys had in mind, but here are some words of wisdom from my friends.
-Your secrets are safe with me and all my friends.
-Those who live by the sword get shot by those who don't.
-I know karate! ...and many other Chinese words.
-I am sorry I have offended you... I should have lied.
-Press any key to... No! Not THAT one!
-There is an exception to every rule, except this one.
-Bears in a Hospital. Sequel to Snakes on a Plane.
-It's better to be pissed off than pissed on.
-Suicidal twin kills sister by mistake.
-I AM A NOBODY
NOBODY IS PERFECT
THEREFOR I AM PERFECT

Ya the celebrities are dropping back to back, the only people that I can see benefiting or having the recourses to pull that off is the Iranian government: to distract the world from the citizen's blight and the election fiasco.
The new Avatar movie looks like it will have some nice production value behind it but, the twist this time is that the movie is directed by M.Night Shyamalan which could be awesome, scary, or scary awesome.
Whatever he does with it, I sure it won't be as weird as the up coming G-Force movie. How do they get from 'battle of the planets' to Guinea pig force?

oyo wow a bowling ball for the wii [my brother's are gonna die if we get that] Con is coming up soon and I have a full organization XIII Its amazing.
I'm new to the podcasts but I have listened to most of them I enjoy the voices. but you do have pronuncation <----proly spelled wrong} problems. Yazoo is yah-zoo.
apperantly Sephiroth nii-san found Hojo and jenova at anime boston I'm so mad that I couldn't go but I have conneticon. if anyone can get me a good price on a GOOD Zexion wig I will love them forever. An Axel and Roxas wig are needed too.
My sister kadaj was knighted [at a mall con] as 'Lady Knight Kadaj of the Otaku Kingdom' so I'm afraid of that cuz she is insane.
but that is all the time I have

As a Chinese-Canadian, I can think of so many better things to hold grudges against the Japanese for besides Pearl Harbor. Sooooo so so many better things.
Or worse things, depending on how you wanna look at it. Still doesn't mean I dislike them on a personal level or anything, though, them Japanese are an interesting folk.
They just . . . need to own up to a couple things, is all. Then I'll have zero beef with them. Well, mostly, anyway.

For someone to have a current grudge against Japan for Pearl Harbor (especially if this person wasn't even around during WWII) is ridiculous. It makes no sense to hold an entire population at fault for something that happened when the majority of them weren't even alive at the time. It's like holding everyone in the South now responsible for the Civil War.
It seems to be a law of the universe that celebrities always die in groups.
I had never read any of the guy's other works, but I did also notice when I picked up the first couple volumes of Fairy Tail that it looked a lot like One Piece. I'm not a fan of One Piece, but I intend to give the Fairy Tail anime a try since I'd be getting in at the ground floor and not having to back track through a ton of episodes.
Heh... I'd compete in an MST test of knowledge too but I think I'd fail even though I've been a fan for a long time, because I'm not really good with the Joel episodes, or even a lot of the Mike episodes from the Comedy Central days. I gotta watch more. And we always hope you guys will pop in and join us sometime.
You know
The avatar trailer isn't as bad ad I thought it would be
They did the air bending quite well
I might actually go and watch this when it comes out in my country
A moment of silence for the fallen. I hadn't known about Billy Mays dying until this morning; did he finally blow a blood vessel from all that yelling? I'll miss MJ; he was a crazy celeb, but he actually had talent to back it up, which is much more than we could honestly say for today's famous basketcases.
Yeah, Batou, those were my remarks on Fox's making a new Dragonball movie instead of burning the money outright, as well as whether Chow Yun Fat would get suckered into taking another shot at it. My apologies, I never saw the 2nd or 3rd Pirates movies; I didn't care much about the first one to begin with.
I thought the Avatar trailer looked fine, but I doubt that I'll go out and see it; not a series I'm particularly into. And I'd really rather Hollywood just took a break and came up with some good, solid, original ideas rather than trying to live-action make every popular animated film/remake old TV series.
Yes, come to the Dark Side; we have cookies. Oh wait, shoot, the Light Side has the milk. Crap.
Believe it or not, the entire production staff of Avatar was required to buy and watch FLCL and learn from it. Think about the physics and you'll see the similarities.

LOL. Don't worry, we (I) enjoy your rants.
No I don't have a Wii but I laughed at the bowling ball news XD Everyone I've talked to agrees "how wouldn't you not release the ball?" Its a dangerous reflex.
I'm looking forward to the Last Airbender movie, though no, I haven't been to the movies lately.
I want to see my Nekama!!!! But I already have plans for the 4th of July weekend T_______________T
I swear Batou, one of these days I'm going to spew my coffee over my computer I laughed so hard during this one.
Trust me, I think he's held it a bit too long too (he may or may not be over it, it's been a few years since I've talked to him since he ran off and joined the Army and I know I at least convinced him into watching Naruto and Ruroni Kenshin and he at least liked those...) as well.
I know! So many people have died! Is it just me or is anyone else tired of seeing Michael Jackson plastered over the news? I mean, god rest his soul, but I mean, all this commotion of one guy dying? I don't even see a fraction of this for the soldiers that die in combat protecting us (the US) and yet, for this guy (who many hold dear and he is an important part of American history I'm not disputing that) who was a celebrity? I dunno...call me crazy. (But I was sad when I heard Billy Mayes died! I mean, that man has done every infomerical out there! From gardening to cleaning to everything! O_O)
THANK YOU JESUS! Omg, someone who actually shares my view on that dumb anti-whaling group or whatever it is. I saw one episode of it on Discovery Channel and was appalled at what they did! I mean, I have nothing against trying to "save whales" if you will, but what they did was down right sneaky (in this particular episode). They basically pegged the Japanese ship with stink bombs (and not the ones you peg at your brothers, I mean hard core ones) then they infiltrated their ship, took a video of it, sent it to various media groups and said in the tape that the Japanese took their guys hostage and wouldn't release them! (Which was bullcrap, they even said that they would have let them go, they just kept antagonizing the Japanese.) So yah...I hope a harpoon goes through their ship, teach them a lesson....
And woots for Fairy Tail! That series is so funny. I love Happy, he rules all! lol
I dunno, see, I think the bowling ball would be a great excuse to start chucking it at younger siblings. *looks over at younger sister* but in all other situations...yah...bad idea. (Someone had to have been drunk when coming up with the idea)
FFVII has been doing amazingly well (to put in perspective how old this is, my sister, whose seven and a half years older than me, played it when she was 13 or 14...I'm 17 now.). I only wish they would actually redo the game in their spiffy graphics and set it out for the PS3. I mean, if that doesn't boost PS3 sales then nothing will...
I thought the Avatar movie trailer looked pretty damn cool. (Even though I don't watch Avatar...) We'll see, we'll see...
Random and funny comments? I guess I'll go with my first of
ROYAL RAINBOW!
I swear that game [Katamari] is like being on LCD (not that I would know or anything! lol no seriously, I don't know what it's like being on LCD! o_O) Anyhoo I'm going to stop typing...
Have a great day! Hope you have a great Fourth of July with lots of food and fireworks (I know I will! ^^)

I know! You guys should have the quiz-off after one of the podcasts! It would totally work! Like, at the end of the podcast, Tim and Kat (special guest star, wooooo! lol) could duel it off, with Batou and Ichigo as judges/score keepers/announcers/Game show hosts. It'd be epicly awesome!
I could probably give Tim a run for his money, but then again, I'm not too well versed in the actual movies. Well, I could tell you a basic outline, but some of the things Tim remembers makes my head spin. Then again, I've been a fan for less than a year, so...
Name the time and date and I'll be there. XD Might be better as an audio showdown rather than text, since you can cheat with text...(I mean, you can hear typing and clicking...)
Hey leave Haseo's cousin alone, it not they're fault they can't let the past go. Taking back Sunday is awesome, of course Japan and US will exchange awesome music. Yeah, it seems that everyone is dying. Billy Mae's (spelling) he could sell anything. Yeah Fairy Tail is amazing, and I hope Funimation get's the license. Yeah Hiro Mashima did study under master Oda, which is amazing. Avatar is getting a live action? I saw Transformers this weekend, and there was no Avatar movie trailer.
I still haven't beaten FF7 yet, I'm only at 89% and I have spent half my life on it. Yes, a bowling ball is a good idea to play with in front of a television. A Otaku-off, that would be hard to plan, but fun to enjoy. Although, it would seem that Ichigo's contest was planned then he vanishes, it seems a little bit shady as well. Oh well, what can you do?
taking back sunday.. its AWESOME.. its called google batou.
wow...a military otaku still holding a grudge about pearl harbor.. jeez. *cough*hiroshima*cough* *cough*nagasaki*cough*
billy mays death... GAHH.
it makes me think maybe kira is alive.
that seems to be the buzz in the chat anyway.
... yeah.
using a boat too block harpoons is smart. theres NO WAY it would sink.

AVATAR MOVIE X( no.. please no. Just.. no.. infact.. yeah just NO.
yes.. i think i remember the show you where talking about its production in.. infact that the people in charge of casting said "if you are korean wear a kimono(WTF?)" yes.. i remember that.
The wii bowling ball... PETA's going to have a hissy fit. really.
the funny comment battle.. i'm not even gonna try ô_ô
the caption battle.. meh.
thats all for now folks
Billy Mays is DEAD!!!
NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
I loved his infomertials....*sigh*
Maybe a Death Note fell from the shimigami realm,
well, whoever has it...I WANT IN!
oh well...
I want to see the avatar movie, Avatar really isnt my thing but we could use more live actions... Like an english dubbed naruto one! *drools*
Bowling ball for wii? Now theres something nobody needs! My little brother would give me a concussion with that! (lol, im on this site on my wii right now, ironic)
Oh well, cant wait for your next show, I miss Ichigo though, I hope hes back. But all of you Otacku podcasters are awesome! See ya!
