'Nother set of tricked out stretched bikes, these built by Amen Motorcycles. The first one there has like a 380mm rear tire or something like that. Bloody big if you ask me but whats cool about it is that there are no spokes to speak of.

Akira is pretty old you know. Maybe back in the day 200hp was considered powerful

(well it still is by street standards.) That's 200hp at each electric driven wheel btw

They still play all of those on Cartoon network

Currently watching the Return of Cooler on my PC right now while im writing this.
Have to say it has to be the best DBZ movie ever (and yes I include the ones that havnt been releasd in english yet. It's good to have an uncle in Tokyo...)

**カワサキキド** · 6th February 2005, 23:04

Akira is one of my favourites, GITS too. I have seen the DVD twice but the manga is way better, more action on the bikes, and more of them.

I have watched heaps fan subs and have Dragonball Z comics in Japanese and I'm reading Naruto at the moment. It's all good study...the problem is that when I speak Japanese I sound like an Anime Character.

Have you seen Onepiece or FMA(Full Metal Alchemist, Haganenolenkinjitsushi)?

**Waylander** · 6th February 2005, 23:08

I have Naruto fansubs from the first episode to curent of the anime and Ghost in the Shell the entire first season and up to episode 18 in the 2nd gig on my pc right now. Gonna buy them on dvd when they come out.

The "Akira" bike was a BMW .... ? What's with that!

I loved ghost in the shell, although it took me a few times to watch it, to understand it....loved and bought the soundtrack.

I'm quite partial to "macross plus" (own the videos) and "The last vampire princess". Although "Ramna 1/2" was an old favourite, as was the "Thundercats".

I tell ya, unless you watch the entire animated series of "Aeon Flux", it doesn't make any sense.
You know, I can't wait for it to come out on the movies either. I'm not sure on Charlize Theron as the lead tho........

As long as its not as bad as the live action Dragonball movie is supposed to be it doesnt really matter to me.

Hmmm, interesting. Alucard, why do you watch the old anime? When I here the word I think of cartoon porn.

Well, I do??

Well, when I hear the word 'anime', I think of the anime news in Jap. That shit cracks me up

I don't think the power bike was actually a BMW. Its pretty 'riced' up with stickers and I'm sure there are other bike manufactures stickers on it?
