On the plus side, more fans. On the down side... more fans. XD I don't have much high hopes for the dub, and I say that as someone who usually likes dubs. But I think it'll be decent. Bandai does a pretty good job with their dubs.

On an unrelated note, I love that song you're listening to. ♥

I agree... more fans ;___; I'm kinda afraid it may have a giant fanbase like what happened to Bleach and Naruto, but I dono, I'm not very synched with the American population xD

Bandai does do a good job - I enjoyed the Haruhi dub except for the english singing, but Lucky star dub hurts my ears x_x

I think I'll just avoid the TV more than I already do when April rolls around ^^;

And FMA too. I think the FMA fandom more so was completely changed when it aired on Adult Swim.

Same! They did dubbed some of my other favorites too like Ghost in the Shell, Wolf's Rain and Witch Hunter Robin. And all those dubs were great. ^^ And I don't like Lucky Star to being with, so I lucked out? XD/

LOL, ditto. I might still watch it for the lulz.

[gatekeepers-21.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I usually watch it one for lawlz, but if it's massively bad I could be in fits of crying (like Kanon...)

[inksmears]

I hear that. The Black Cat dub did that to me. T_T

Is your username a reference to the anime with the same name by any chance? Out of random curiosity.

[gatekeepers-21.livejournal.com]

Yes :D A long long time ago I use to really like that anime (when I had very little anime experience) and I was in a username block, so I just choose the title of that anime and it kinda stuck for a while @.@;

[inksmears]

Hahaha~ I saw that anime ages ago on... TechTV, I think? I always thought it was pretty cool. Cell phones as weapons, hell yes. XD

[gatekeepers-21.livejournal.com]

Yeah! I watched it on TechTV too ^^. That was my main source of anime back then ;_;

[inksmears]

Hahaha, same here~ XD

In some ways, I wonder if Geass will take off the way other anime shows have taken off in past years. It seems almost too socio-political for a broad fanbase to actually ENJOY. But I might just be being elitist, here.

[inksmears]

Good point. I hope you're right. I guess I just see what it did to the FMA fandom and cringe when I think Code Geass may suffer the same fate. XD

[kill-me-faster.livejournal.com]

Oh wow, I was in the FMA fandom, too, so I remember what you're talking about. I left a little bit after, though. As a matter of fact...your LJ name looks vaguely familiar. O.o Have we met?

[inksmears]

I use to be big into the FMA fandom. Nowadays not to much. It just read the newer chapters as they come out every now and then. So maybe we've met? I dunno, I don't think I recognize your journal name... Then again, I have the memory of a goldfish, so. \o.O/

[kill-me-faster.livejournal.com]

I used to write under the name devils_devotion, if that helps.

Well, the fandom got weird after the dub aired, anyway. And I was never one for reading the manga, so I've pretty much forgotten all about it. (Wow, the manga still goes on, even now? That's some perseverance, Hiromu Arakawa.

[inksmears]

It doesn't ring any bells, sorry. D:

Yeah it did. The dub brought in A LOT of fangirls. Specifically Edward and his voice actor fangirls. And yes, the manga is still going~ It's rumored to be ending soon, though. It has... 70-something chapters? Maybe 80-something. I don't remember. XD
