What?!  A garden-variety sub episode has an extra goody in it?  Are you
certain this doesn't go with the HB box set?

I went back to Fort Wayne (IN) this weekend, and their local large video
store had only 1 Ranma OAV- most of the rest of it was decadent smut like
Urotsukidoji, Twin Dolls/Angels, La Blue Girl, New Angel, etc.   It pained
me greatly to look at their stock, as I kept stepping on my own tongue.
They had to drag me out of the store.  Too bad it's 3.5 hours away from my
house- I'd be a rentin' fool.

Personally, I think Ranma's popularity at video rental stores suffers from
it being such a large series.  You just can't reasonably stock enough of it
to do it justice.

Personally, I know Billy Mumy better as Will Robinson from the old Lost in
Space series- I don't watch B5.

"Eat them up, YUM!"

Went to my old arcade haunt in Ft. Wayne, and saw that Capcom has turned
'JoJo's Bizarre Adventure' into a video game!  Was pretty cool playing with
Kakyoin's heirophant stand.  And one of Iggi's special moves is latching
onto a player's face and breaking noxious wind.  Also finally saw Tecmo's
entry into the Tekken clone series: 'Dead or Alive'   Had to play Kasumi
the ninja.  Boy, talk about fan service!  Those girls' bosoms don't even
look like they're attached properly!    9_9   6_6   9_9   6_6   H_H
