I dont think so...
There are many ppl here that are probably older than you could think...
Anime is made for all ages...

About the anime, its very interesting, its a new concept never seen in anime...

Yeah, I suppose that's true..
I just can't shake off the feeling of being like a teenager when I watch anime targeted at kids and teens. Sort of like the love comedy and pantsu material always make me feel like I should blush when I see it as if I were a teen too. (Sorry I go into my own little world there ) B Gata H Kei though is some seriously funny stuff, love it!

And finally... today what I have been wishing Kubo Tite would do has finally happened!

@Mark - Finally got around to finishing Vampire Bund. I liked it. Nowhere near Elfen Lied quality in my book tho. A little too cliche at times. But, the ending did seem to leave it open for more.

12 wasent nearly enough, its too bad because now Funimation has it I wonder if the next part will be as good (a continuation) or off track like Railgun was to Index.
(thanks for letting me know Wile E, I have been waiting for ur opinion for months)

It's hard to say were the plot will go. I think they may choose to come up with a different ultimate goal for her to strive for, or focus more on the romance.

And yes, Michiko is another fav of mine. Just the right blend of comedy and drama.

Just watched Episode 54...

I think the whole reason that I love Brotherhood more then I did the original. It gives more to everyone. Thus the title being Brotherhood.. FMA was a great anime. You can almost say that it was the anime that really saved the Anime for the US. I can't tell how big it got and brought forth more and more from Japan to air. Yeah, we got the "dumbed" down versions of it streaming. But hey. At lease we are able to try and mainstream anime more.

I remember a article, someone posted it here, about anime dieing.. Nah, if it can bring more and more styles coming out, I don't think that it could die. IMO at lease.

Now, back to FMA and Brotherhood. With the factor that Brotherhood brings more of that, "what would happen if they knew about this?". Yeah, it goes more with the manga. I'm one for them going with the manga. FMA: Brotherhood will never give me the feel of FMA gave me. That's the truth. But, Brotherhood give you that since of more being "human" then anything.

With that, and the fact that episode 54 is still running threw my head, I'll be going now. Episode 54 was a great episode. Gave you that feeling of "life".. Or, to me that is.

Hughes!!!!

Something's really creeping me out lately.

I've already had recent dreams of scenes in Fafner in the Azure, Clannad, Sora no Manimani, Toradora!, to name a few. But I've never watched those anime before until this past month or so. The dreams occurred before I get to watch them. That's why I'm usually getting some deja vu moments while seeing the actual scene (the latest being episode 2 of Fafner), thinking "hey I saw this happen before already!" LOL

You're on drug, just like CS.

Anyway, Is lossless audio really matter in anime? Isn't lossless audio only matter for classical music?

lossless audio is always important if you have surround sound system of decent quality. Problem is, there is no really uniform method for audio or video quality. If you have a true lossless stereo track, it may be perfect and output as a bit stream, but it will still be two channels. Good surround sound setup can product fairly decent faux surround sound in this case., but it is not recommend as it can create accidental distortion with the artificial rear channels.

I don't think anime goes beyond 2 channel stereo too often, so I would venture to say no, it is not a big deal. Please note that there is some really complex crap going on that creates the lossy audio, so you do lose something (usually extreme highes and lows are muddled). I personally say get the lossless audio if it is an option.
