ok here it is, 5 or 6 years ago i remember watching this one japanese anime movie (or show, i dont know) on tv, it was about the future and it had jets that could transform into robots, and if this is wat ur thinkinging, its not gundam! everyone ive asked so far, has told me its gundam. Anyways this movie/show was faar better than gundam imo.

Some scenes i remember from this movie/show was a part where a young very skilled pilot uses his below ordinary robot and defeats his rival, or enemy who is using a superior state of the art robot but then black oil falls pours all over him in his cockpit, and thats pretty much all i remember.

At first I thought this was patlabor, so i rented a patlabor video from the store but i didnt see any robots transforming into jets, also i could remember that the movie im looking for had better animation detail.

Plz, someone help find the name of this movie, i would really apreciate it if someone helped me out.


thank you, Aeko
 
Hmmm - my guess is Macross/Robotech. Maybe the 3rd part where the Invid invade since that's the only one I remember with "black oil" and mecha that transforms into jet's. But I don't think it's a perfect fit for your description, there might be something else.
 
I would like to point out that this is incorrect.

That is the butchered american meaning of the word. In japanese it's highly offensive. Roughly translated it means "oh great house" in a sarcastic tone. Typically it means someone who is house ridden (aka never leaves home unless ABSOLUTELY neccessary. Since they never leave home they are prone to playing many video games and waching much anime, hence where the americans got thier version from.

It also can be used in context to describe 'freak' like an 'anime freak' it's still VERY offensive, not intended to mean 'fanboy/fangirl' more like 'obsessionist'
 
haha thanks for the warning! and thanks for the reply Guiltiest Gear and GTO
 
aww kewl, if it wasent 4 u, i never would hav known the ecchi and the manga,,,, i luv anime it it plays a big part in my life, so i am definatly Otaku.
 
I have a favour to ask here. Can you people please name me some anime characters that are known to wear or have worn sunglasses at some occasion? It doesn’t have to be one that always wears them but at least that can be associated with them in some way. And please spare me character that is so unimportant that they only appeared in one episode or something like that. It can be side characters though, as long as they are at least a bit famous. You can post right here, but
I think PM would be the best for convenience reasons. Game characters is also good, but only if they are really well known and preferably crated by a Japanese company.

I already have some on my list so please spare me these names:
Shino from Naruto
Vash from Trigun
Char from Gundam
Britain from Dominion
Misato from Evangelion

Thanks every one.
 
If anyone, can tell me what Anime the Picture in my Signature is from, Please do. I'm lost.

Renegade, it seems that your picture is from a japanese anime art website: http://www.s1.inets.jp/~nekoneko/gallery.htm I didn't find anything else. It might not even exist as an anime or manga.
 
hello people, first post w00t

I'm looking for the title of an anime series (hope this is the right topic eh).
Its an anime I used 2 watch when I was a little kid, I rented it on vhs at the videostore, ill try 2 tell you all I can remember about it:

It starred this white skinny guy (in a dark suit) and his name might have been something like ash or vlad. I think he was supposed to be some kind of master con-man or super thief (but definately a good guy).
He had a friend who always wore a hat and had this small brown beard and this really sweet pistol or sniper rifle. There was another friend who was a samurai (I think he was always really silent). They drove around in this yellow car and got chased by the police all the time (police officer also played a pretty big role I think). I also think that the main character might have had this vampire thing going for him.

It's probably a pretty well know series (or multple movies... cant remember) coz it was dubbed in Dutch.... and was for rent in this shitty little videostore we got here

Anyways, hope you can help me out!

i dont think he knows what cn is ( hell me neither), because he said something abuoy dutch translation, so i think hes from belgium or holland, and as i can remember there isnt any channel thats called cn in belgium or holland, from what country is it, cn?
 
oh cartoon network, i dont think we have that, i dont watch much tv, but i think we have a nickelodeon or something, but that are al childish cartoons, like sponshbob and all, i wish we had a anime channel or something. they only played dbz and gundam wing, and that they played it over and over, if the serie ends they just start all over again. they used to play rurouni kenshin but not anymore, that was the only good anime they played in belgium, besides gundam wing to.
 
What's the title of the animé series where a group of high school or maybe junior high students call themselves "the Butterflies?" And don't say "maybe 'Butterflies' is a mistranslation" because it isn't!

Also: What is the name of that awful violent hentai series that starts with "f?"
 
*cough* okay, since ya locked my other topic, I'll reply here:

What I meant was, what is the japanese name for american made or what not BASED ON the Anime style, like Teen Titans?

I remembered I watched an Anime years ago in Astro. Its about a robotic sports team called "Silver Castle" and their enemy in the "Black Swan" team. Can someone please tell me the title and where I can obtain them? BTW the main characted is a red baseball robot. There is a yellow soccer robot, red/yellow football robot with an ox horn, a funny basketball robot with arms and legs made of spring for shooting basketballs, a white kungfu robot, a blue ice hockey robot, and a blue kendo robot in the team also.
