Kom Ba Wa (Good evening)! Well here it is folks. Our first Newsletter
for the XT Anime Side Thread! WHOO*HOO!!! HEE HA!!! YEAH!!!! YAY!!! I
hope you guys enjoy it and find it informative. Hopefully as more
newsletters are published it will be filled with more information and
contributions by you guys! The Newsletter will be sent out once a month
which gives us time to gather as much information and enough time for
you to submit articles, reviews or ANYTHING on ANIME!! Just remember we
are under the Adult Conspracy which is going to be hard to do with anime. Lets face it
folks, there are very few animes out there that are perfect. What we
will do is make sure that this news letter is within the AC, what you
decide to do is your own choice. In other words, we will review animes
and let you know the content of them. We will warn you, of course, if
the Anime or web site on anime indeed violate the AC. Whether you choose
to watch it or not is up to you.
As far as the fan fics go those are to be kept within the AC that will
be strickly inforced. But other than that have fun with the news letter
as it opens new worlds of Anime to you.
Contributions be it web sites or reviews on animes need to be rated by
the author on the content of the site or anime. Remember when you are
rating the anime or sites don't judge them from your own point of view
because your point of view may be different from another. In other
words don't say take a hint of nudity and think "hey that's all right
it's not bad" for you it might not be but for another it could be. So
be very liberal in your judgement....if there is any nudity make sure we
all know that. If the violence is extreme and gory let us know.
As always if you have any questions on the rating feel free to ask Koi
Chan at or Bink at . When you want to
submit something send it to Koi Chan at
Co-Authors Koi Chan and Bink

Most of the anime videos accessible to us in the states (I'm not sure
about anywhere else) are dubbed in English. For those of you who like to
experience Anime in its orginal form there are series in which Subtitles
are available. Just for fun we'll be adding either a word or a sentence
in Japanese for each newsletter. We'll start off with words and as more
words are publish a sentence will be added for you to figure out. Send
in your replies to me privately at fechan@main.com and I will publish it
out on the next newsletter with your translation of the sentence.
If you wish to send in a word with its translation feel free to send it
to me at fechan@main.com. Just remember to keep the Adult Conspiracy in
mind when you send in your word.
Word for November is: Onii-san /Owe--knee--san/
Onei-san /Owe--Nay--san/
Meaning Older brother and older sister respectively. In Japan as with
other asian cultures, to show respect to older family members such as
your older brother or sister you call them by the title. Unlike our
culture some find it rude to call your older siblings by their given
name. Sometimes friends who are close enough that are older than you can
be called onii/onei - san as well.

Interested on more information on Koko wa Greenwood? How about what was
Hitomi's special talent on Gaea? Which of the Magic Knights of Rayearth

Not everyone on the anime thread has the answers to these questions.
But there are websites online that can help you find your answer. One
website we'll look at this month is the anime turnpike.

KiKi's Delivery Service
Rated: G (Good for all audiences brief glimpse of underwear)
Available in the US: NOW
Brought to you by: Buena Vista originally from Studio Ghibli
Voices of
Kirsten Dunst (KiKi)

Phil Hartman (JiJi the Cat)
One of the first Hayao Miyazaki films brought to us by courtesy of
Disney Kiki's Delivery Service is about a 13 year old witch in training
named Kiki, with her black cat named JiJi, leaves her hometown to begin
her training as a witch. With only the power to fly Kiki opens her own
delivery service. This is the story about her tale in the new big city
and making new friends wherever she goes. Kiki is a light heard,
humorous anime by Hayao Miyazaki which it's original name Majo No
Takkyabin (The Witche's Delivery Service) was released in Japan in 1989.
I was lucky enough to be able to see the fan sub of Kiki's Delivery
Service not too long ago. This is a great movie for the whole family to
enjoy. No foul language and violence in this video makes this a great
movie for the younger generation to be introduced to anime.
