I would suspect that they'll find a way to sell as many different
varieties of tickets (for the collectors, such as Kenji) as possible.
Must wonder how all those folks got the wrong infor about EVA tickets.

BY THE WAY,  a little off topic, but an "anime" story made the one of
the national morning breakfast shows. Apparently, there's this anime
called PRINCESS WOLF (do I have that right, Kenji?) that has been taking
Japan by storm (princess, gets raised by wolves, etc. etc.). Anyway,
whomever the producers are, they've got a US distribution contract with,
guess who?

The Walt Disney Company.

This is tragic. Really. This according to some, is supposed to be one of
the biggest anime hits ever, and the thought of it's distribution rights
falling into the hands of the Big Rodent is enough to frighten even the
strongest among us.

So, what is this movie, Kenji, if you know this, and do you have any
idea when it's coming to the US?

Be Seeing You,
