Sleep....it's such a waste.

I'm watching the PGSM episodes. It's so much better than the original. WAYY better. I found out that ADV's licence to release the BSSM season 1 & 2 boxsets just expired April 1st, which means that what's left in the warehouse is all that's left. They didn't renew it purposely. I think they let it go on purpose so they can release PGSM over here, but that's just a guess. I'm gonna research this some more.

*edit*

How many episodes are in PGSM?

*edit again*

Never mind. Checked page 01. 53 episodes.

Yeah, when I heard they lost their license for the boxsets, I bought the second one the same day I read it.

There are 52 (53?) episodes to PGSM.

I am so far behind. Sittin at episode 03 until my blasted sub discs come in 1 week. Arggggh! They go up to 22, so I'm downloading 23+. They're sitting on the Hard Drive and I cand watch them! WAAHHHH!

This is so annoying.

*goes to kick US post office's ***.*

I sooo want to move to Japan sometimes......or at least get an international satellite, but that ain't gonna happen.
Every Japanese show America gets is chopped to bits, if it airs at all.


*Halarious rant alert. Read if you want a good laugh at American stupidity*

Here's a funny story about the FCC, and how screwed up they are. It's rather funny in a strange sort of way. Every Saturday morning I get up for TMNT. I'm a loyal Sonic, Kirby, and Yu-Gi-Oh fan to the core, so I watch them as well (even if I am missing 90% of the good stuff due to it being chopped out). Every week the dubs seem to get worse. Last week, Sonic (a rerun) was redubbed to make it more kiddy, and another 45 seconds of footage was cut out. No clue about Kirby, because I've not seen the originals. Yu-Gi-Oh.....everyone knows that's a chop job.

Anyway, the FCC makes them (4Kids Entertainment) edit almost all violence, language, and every important part of the shows out. How TMNT gets away with what it does is beyond me, but thank God they do.

Here's the point of the story. Last week on Kids WB, I'm watching Yu-Gi-Oh, and during a commercial, they show a public service announcement. In it, they have a guy calling his girlfriend. He yells on the phone, "You know, you're really p*****g me off!" Soooo, Ultraman get into major poodoo for saying Crap, a word which isn't really a curse word anyway, and the FCC can say PI** on saturday morning, and get away with it, because they're saying to "Speak up when your friends are acting like jerks".

Point is, America is full of crap most of the time. In Japan, Sonic X (which I'd say is one of their younger based shows, but still manages to keep the old fans happy) Episode 9, Amy on the Beach, Amy gets inraged because an eggman robot stomps on the bracelet she was going to give to Sonic. She goes insane and jumps on the thing, beating the crap out of it, and says (translated)....

Take this! Eat This! And This! (then jumps on top of the robot and yells,

B*****D!* B*****D! B*****D! B*****D! B*****D!

*ahem*. Not that I want America to go that far, but America really needs to lighten up some.

*end of rant*

Poor Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon is gonna get chopped to bits over here.

Easy there, ThirdMarioBro. True, American TV sucks, but that shouldn't suggest that it's okay to flip out on them. I'm sure they have their reasons for censoring, and I don't really have a problem with it, because I don't watch American cartoons much anymore. I buy the DVDs where they're uncut and I can choose Japanese.

Enough with the ranting, and just enjoy the fact that there are ways of getting Japanese stuff unedited.

Yeah, you're right. Why waste time ranting about something that can't be helped. It's great to get the uncut stuff, and I'm glad that we can get it. Imagine if we couldn't.....
Sorry for the rant. I'll try to make that the last one.

If you want them you had better get them while you can. They went out of production April 1st. Too bad that the original won't be released anymore. Hopefully PGSM will get a stateside release.

On those two boxsets, is the audio quality lower that it was on the original TV broadcasts, or is that just how it sounded?

It's in mono, like old school ghetto Japanese. I don't mind it, because I don't have surround sound (except on my computer).
