different 
 from the manga yeah; but that doesn't mena it doesn't matter. IMHO event and 
 people in the anime are as if not more important than events and people in 
 the manga. >>


well lets see ehre should we A) beleive the story as it was written by its 
author  or B) believe the interpretation of the story by a bunch of horn dog 
animators(specially in cases of OAV)
now no offense(well actually a little offense) but why the hell would we whom 
on the average are a group of above average intelligent people utilize 
information that is rewritten in someone elses interpretation of a story, 
that would be idiotic unintelligent and for lack of better words a fraggin 
waste of a great story.
beleive what you will for we dont care. we are the majority here. therfor 
everytime you use anime as evidence you should expect to be grilled over the 
volcano.
if you dont expect that you are truly a moron.
