When they get >their Japanese releases someone will get their asses sued! there are many things that indicate Jega liking anime. 1st there is the whole Nausicaä thing, then there is obviously the Type Xero cover art. Intron i believe is some sort of manga reference, as is "Mai". "Nia" probably is also. there is no mistaking that "Kid Sista" has an asian feel to it and D.M.C. (Live) has samples of anime hand to hand combat and gun fire in it. i'm sure there are probably a host of others that i haven't figured on yet. perhaps this is the reason so many Skam items are limited. there are hoping copies will never make it to Japan «®ôл ___________________________________________________________________ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.
