It could be sort of a Sailor Moony Tranformation anime. KISS would turn from normal humans to their Make-up persona. lol, Space Man Power! Make-up! (Wow, that actualy fit) Fox Power! Make-up! I smell a good idea.

Family guy did one. that's it.

Most animated shows based on real life musical acts aren't that good. And as far as a Japanese studio looking to do something like that, I doubt KISS would be high on that list. Especially as there are a number of Japanese acts that would be looked at first.

I am going to beat you with a very very large plank of wood. And then I will apologize to the plank.

Mine too. Let's build some statues in his honor. I've got a few tons of marble I need to get rid of anyway.

Gundam 00, Episode 22 (This is where I would say episode 47 overall, but I seemed to have dropped that)
-Graham and Setsuna fight on. In a completely expected move, Setsuna wins, breaking off Sunanoo's arms with a pair of beam sabers. Graham urges him to make a killing blow, but, of course, Setsuna doesn't. And he doesn't give a good reason, either.

-The coordinates for Veda are confirmed, hidden on the far side of the moon at Lagrange-2, which is, in fact, the location of Side 3 in the Universal Century; Veda is hidden in the same basic spot as the Principality of Zeon. It would be awesome if that was intentional.

-The A-Laws begin to toss their full force at Celestial Being; seeing as how there's only three episodes left after this, I'm not surprised. This probably means Veda is going to serve the same basic function as the Gryps Colony Laser, or A Baoa Qu.

-Hey, look at that, Louise is also becoming an Innovator.

-A resupply arrives for the Ptolemaios, including the 0 Gundam. And the 0 Gundam is in the RX-78-2's color scheme. Again, awesome.

-Ribbons has a very large number of Innovators, all in pilot suits...all of which look like Bring Stabbity for some reason.

-Graham contemplates seppuku, then doesn't after remembering Setsuna's words "fight to live."

-Feldt is apparently falling for Setsuna. It's worth noting that I still like Feldt much in the same manner as Nena, in that neither have given me any reason to dislike them, unlike, say Marina, who's naivete regarding war is infuriating, and Louise, who is angsty enough to be the main character of her own mech series.

-Soma says it's okay if Allelujah calls her Marie, but Allelujah calls her Soma anyway.

-CB gets their asses kicked. Fortunately, Kataron shows up as reinforcements. Incidentally, Kati Mannequin is now with Kataron. Patrick "Awesome" Corlasour is back, and also part of Kataron.

-Post credits: I...I...I don't know how to say what I just saw. Ribbons taunts Regene about Regene's over ambition and...Regene pulls out a pistol, and shoots Ribbons right in the head, and declares himself the new leader of the Innovators. I...really didn't see that coming. Even as Regene pulls his pistol, I expected Ribbons to dodge or Regene to be disarmed but...Ribbons is dead. Honestly, my jaw dropped as far as a jaw can be dropped.

Speaking of horrible cartoons based on musical acts--anyone remember Hammerman? Based on MC Hammer?

Sad point was the dude was a moron. The damn shoes called the shots.

HK, whose memory for schlock is impressive.

Today was the 23rd episode of Slayers Revolution, and it was phenomenally great, even though it was flashback episode. We got to see a lot of Rezo and Zelgadis together in the past, as well as their team Zolf, Rodimus, Dilgear and Noonsa. It was so nostalgic and worth every second spent watching it.

Seeing Rezo flit back and forth between good and evil, serenity and rage was brilliant. You can really get a feel for what kind of influence Shabranigdo had on his mind as his obsession with finding a cure for his blindness slowly drove him over the edge, turning a man who was loved by the whole world into a monster.

-

White Album is now in double digit episodes, and I'm sad to say it gets worse with every episode. Every single character is an idiot, the reasons for all the drama are becoming absurd and I just can't fathom how such a large group of people can all be so utterly stupid. It started off with so much promise but has become utter ****.

-

Only two episodes of Skip Beat left to go. It'll be sad to see the series end, but I feel the prospects of a second season are good. But I'm probably going to end up reading the manga, as I just cannot resist.

-

The last page of the recent chapter of the Full Metal Alchemist manga was epic. Roy getting ready to face off against Envy is so exciting, I hope he burns him to death. Vengeance for Hughes!

Speaking of FMA, only three weeks now until the new series starts.

-

Tytania and the other series I'm still watching are as good as ever, but I don't feel there's a need to go on about them.

-

Still no word on the future of Ga-Rei Zero or Tokusen 4, it's frustrating.

-

I went and watched all 110 episode of Legend of the Galactic Heroes, all the Gaidens, and as much of Spiral Labyrinth as I could get. All in the space of a week. Best marathon ever. XD

It's such a brilliant series, I'd recommend it to anyone who's a fan of Space Opera or Sci-Fi in general, even if the animation is a little dated. We love you Admiral Yang, that Fan Hyulen person has nothing on you.

-

And that's all for today...

Tekka wrote:Today was the 23rd episode of Slayers Revolution

Weird, today was the 23rd episode of Gundam 00.

So my preferred source had the latest Gundam 00 out last night, which I say is some top-quality service, considering the episode AIRED last night.

Gundam 00, Episode 23
-Regene looks at Ribbons' very dead body. Ribbons then enters the room, and says that his consciousness is directly connected to Veda, in what I assume is a Darth Sidious-Auto-Clone deal. It also means all that crazy "WTF just happened" feeling from the last episode is gone now. Regene is then shot dead by everyone's favorite mass murderer, Ali Al-Shachez.

-Mannequin isn't with Kataron, she's just with the regular Federation forces, and trying to kill the A-LAWS. You can see where I'd be confused.

-Ribbons shows up in the ship containing Veda, and fires a massive freaking cannon at the battle. Looks like I was right; that ship IS going to play the part of A Baoa Qu, or at least Jachin Due. (Although to be fair Jachin Due was meant to be something of a "remake" of A Baoa Qu, like everything else in SEED)

-Ribbons unveils the ship; a massive asteroid base/mothership, covered in cannons, with a huge beam cannon, a few Memento Mori styled turrets, and named Celestial Being.

-After losing most of the smaller turrets, Ribbons sends out a massive fleet of Mobile Suits, each one piloted by the Bring Stabity clones. And each MS has Trans-Am, courtesy of Billy Katagiri. Also they're Kamikaze.

-Patrick is d-d-d....Patrick is d-d-d-de...Patrick is--You know what? No. I can't do it. Patrick is to awesome to die, and after Ribbons survived getting shot in the head, I'm willing to bet Patrick survived being blown up by several Kamikaze units...

-The Ptolemaios lands inside of Celestial Being in true White Base style. Ribbons then sends out an army of Automatons...in case you couldn't remember, those were the killer death robots A-LAWS used to send in rather than traditional soldiers.

-Setsuna and Saji confront Louise, while Lockon runs into Ali. Some of Cherudim's new equipment is Rifle Bits, AKA good ol' fashion Funnels, just like Zeon used to make.

-Ian uses the 0 Gundam, which really REALLY looks like the RX-78-2, except for the shield, and a few changes in color. Also, it was the only MS designed by Kunio Okawara in this series. That's gotta count for something.

-Tieria confronts Healing and Revive, who both use Trans-Am. Tieria, despite also using Trans-Am is quickly shot down. Lockon, as you would expect, gets his ass kicked in by Ali, and Soma is hit by one of the Kamikaze units.

-Sumeragi intends to go and fight the Automatons invading the Ptolemaios. She is met, instead, by Billy.

-Post credits: Inside what I assume is the core of Veda, Ribbons is confronted by Tieria. Tieria has a gun, probably because he hasn't heard that Ribbons is immune to headshots.

Well, I looked on youtube to watch some sailor moon (Been a while hasn't it?) and was dissapointed. I COULDN'T FIND IT! Then I looked for a Sailor Jupiter - Shock Me AMV, nothin'. The lyrics even fit! "Your lightning is all I need, my satisfaction grows. you make me feel at ease, you even make me glow." The more I think though, the more a KISS anime would rock. What other band would fit? KISS is INSANELY popular in Japan. They even recently had a Japan exclusive album. and after watching the episode of Kappa Mikey (A show in anime style) with KISS, they translated fine into Anime. the only hard part could be creating villans. Vinnie Vincent could be the main villan though. Ahnk, BLAST *Fires an Ahnk out of his hand* That would rock.

There's no need for a KISS anime when we have Detroit Metal City!



As clearly they would kill them, then rape them in the ass.

No, just no. KISS and anime do not belong anywhere near each other.

I would say the villains could be Black Sabbath, but that wouldn't be fair since Black Sabbath is actually good.

And by the way, Kappa Mikey isn't anime.

So I watched Hellsing the other week...again. I don't know why I think Jan Valentine was awesome, except for, had I been in the same scenario, I probably would have said the same things.

And I watched Cowboy Bebop: Knockin' on Heaven's Door last night. Again. I'm still a bit surprised, though, that the movie had less risque content than the show. You'd think, with cinema, they could get away with more; half of the show wasn't shown in it's first run because of so much violent content. (And also Glenn's...well, I'll keep that a secret if you haven't seen that one)

That guy looks like he's from KISS! I may have a new anime! "I feel uptight on a saturday night *Bass* 9 O'clock, the radio's the only light"

Yep, you should watch it!

Make sure you watch it with your parents and tell them all about how you got it on the internet.

Nah, I think I have better things to watch *pops in KISSology 2 and cries on the "God Gave Rock and Roll to You II" Music video*

Oh, silly me. I forgot you don't actually watch anything, you're just here to spread grief and misery.

Again Family Guy already did it. See.

And that is about the end of it, because what else could you do with KISS?

as for other bands.. seein this isn't a new concept at all how about the Archies or the Jacksons

Not 'anime'ish how about frakin' Puffy. hell not rocking hard enough? Then X-Japan.

Your idea is not new, nor is it original. You may think it's a great idea, but it isn't very likely to happen. follow Tekka lead and watch DMC.

Filler episodes are so silly.

There's only one episode of Skip Beat to go! Today's episode was a little bit thin, and we didn't really learn anything we didn't already know. By now we had already guessed at Ren's blossoming feelings.

Next week I'll start on the manga after the final episode. =x Grar.

Kemono no Souja Erin was so sad around episode 8-9. I feel so incredibly bad for Soyon and Erin, especially Soyon, I really liked her and it really dragged the tears out of me despite the fact I knew it was coming since episode one. (The opening made it so obvious. =/) And surely it was not a nice way to go.

I'm intrigued to find out exactly what killed the Touda.

Rideback, Regios, Index, and Tytania are all still fantastic.

Looking forward as well to the beginning of the final plot arc in Slayers tomorrow.

White Album not so much.... I don't particularly want to watch it, but I need closure.

Two weeks until FMA 2 starts up.

Gundam 00: Episode 24
Only two episodes left! Who will die? Who will kill? Will Marina finally shut the hell up?

-Louise has finally snapped, holding onto the 00 Riaser so the suicide Mobile Suits will have a better shot, and believing that it's worth dying just to kill the Gundam.

-Tieria tells Ribbons that they aren't Innovators, they're Innovades, artificial humans created to resemble Innovators. Ribbons claims he's better than both.

-Meanwhile, Billy and Sumeragi have a meaningful discussion about freedom and everything it brings. I really, really don't care. I've heard the whole "Freedom blows, try oppression" thing before.

-Allelujah and Mary get their asses kicked by suicide units. Lockon fights Ali, but he doesn't do too bad.

-Just like the ol' RX-78-2, the 0 Gundam craps out right in the middle of battle. There's a reason they stopped using those old Minovsky reactors, fellas!

-Ribbons shoots Tieria. He shoots Tieria a lot.

-Saji takes Louise into CB, after her MS was trashed. (Setsuna told him to, this isn't one of Saji's crazy plans that fail miserably) Louise, of course, begins to strangle him. (This is one of Setsuna's crazy plans that fail miserably) She backs off and freaks out when she sees the ring Saji got her in season 1.

-Setsuna uses 00 Raiser's Trans-Am (Saji didn't take the 0 Raiser with him), and begins transmitting and receiving thoughts, (Like a Newtype, not like a crazy person) including Louise's apparently death, Sumeragi confronting Billy, Allelujah getting shot up trying to defend Soma, Lasse getting out of the 0 Gundam and coughing up blood, Mileina and Feldt trying to keep the Ptolemy from exploding, Ian and Linda managing the remaining missiles, and Lockon fighting Ali.

-Then Setsuna does something I would call weird, but since I used that word too much so far, I'll instead say wacky: Activate Trans-Am burst, which makes a massive, multi-colored ribbon wrap around CB (The asteroid base, not the organization) and spread GN particles around the battlefield.

-Old Lockon tells Setsuna to change, since he couldn't. Regene, who you may remember is dead, tells the other Innovades present that when a true Innovators combines with the Twin Drives, the GN particles expand people's consciousness.

-This causes a bunch of changes on the battlefield; Ali gets a sickening feeling, the Innovades lose concentration, and Allelujah has a brief chat with everyone's favorite bout of schizophrenia, Hallelujah. In short, bad things happen to tghe bad guys, good things happen to the good guys.

-More chats that aren't fighting; Billy finds himself unable to shoot Sumeragi, and admits that he loves her. (I wonder if the killer death robots roaming the ship feel the same way...) Marie has a psychic chat with Andrei, asking him why he killed Sergei.

-Everyone on the Ptolemy strengthens their resolve (Suddenly I'm reminded of Battle Meditation from Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic), and Lasse even loses the pain of having been shot by Anew. Also Louise isn't dead, and she even stops hating Saji.

-And suddenly, the fighting stops...okay, so the Arios just blew up a whole fleet of the suicide units, that probably helped.

-Setsuna enters CB and leaves the 00 Raiser to Haro.

-Ribbons loses his link to Veda, with Regene saying how he's not going to let Ribbons win this. Then Ribbons notices Tieria, who has been shot several times in the torso and once in the head, still has his link to Veda. Seraphim Gundam activates and uses it's Trial Field. (An ability Nadleeh had, to disable any unit connected to Veda) All the enemy Mobile Suits and Automatons shut down. Soma reverts back to Marie. Even Ali gets shot down.

-Ali escapes on foot (Or jetpack, this is in space after all) but Lockon follows, shoot Ali in the shoulder. Anew stops Lockon from killing Ali. Ali tries to take advantage of that, but Lockon shoots Ali once in the head and twice in the chest. Finally, Ali is dead.

-Setsuna finds Tieria's body, and says he'll avenge him, but Tieria responds, now a part of Veda. Tieria decides to share Aeolia's full plan.

-Post credits: Aeolia's Plan: CB would unite humanity's will despite the hypocrisy, in order to prevent humanity from taking war into space, to prepare for a dialogue with another "will" they would eventually encounter. (Presumably alien, and probably the first time anyone discussed First Contact in Gundam)

-And then Ribbons appears in a Psycho Gundam-sized MS, shooting down Seraphim (freaking out everyone on Ptolemy because A) they don't know Tieria is already dead, and B) they didn't know about an enemy MS that could move through the Trial Field)

-Next episode: The end of Gundam 00.

K. So one of my friends lent me a couple Inyuasha movies. I liked them they were decent. I have seen the tv show a few times and liked it. I wouldnt mind adding the box sets to my brag worthy dvd collection but there so damn EXSPENSIVE!!!! Not sure what there priced at in the U.S. but stores in canada price various seasons from $100-$150? Why?

Because there is an unwritten law that stuff that girls would buy as much as guys do costs dubs. Like Fruits Basket, etc.
