So they actualy had the planet Jupiter in there?
I didn't get that impression when I watched it. Hmm, good excuse to watch it again (as if I needed one).

Then again, I know nothing of Gunbuster, so there's bound to be an explanation.
Both were made by Anno, Gunbuster first, as Evangelion borrowed from it in certain area's. Still dont see why it's here though

I suspected as much, but I agree with you that it does not seem like a reason for it to be posted here. If that were enough of a reason, then we'd be debating FLCL, Kare Kano, and the rest here too. Mind you, it would scarcely be as if we were any more off-topic than usual if we did!

Eep... I... didn's say that. It was someone else, who thought that he was involved in it... What am I thinking of? Oops.

He was the voice of Miyu-Miyu the cat (the big one). It says so in the director's commentary, right at the end of the last episode.
I was somehow under the misapprehension that he was more 'involved' in it than that. I was under the impression (having never seen it, and knowing little about it) that he was involved in an actual creative capacity.

I think he might have had some creative output in a few episodes (there was one episode in particular that was brought up in the commentary, but I can't remember which one). However, he was really just a sort of 'guest' to the FLCL staff, and not a regular part; this much, I am certain of.

Definitely do watch it, Soluzar. I imagine my first viewing of it was the closest experience I've had to tripping on psychedelic drugs. And Gunbuster's worth at least one watch, if only for the "Whoa..." ending. Just don't watch it with Stuffman in the same room.
Regardless of whether input Anno has had into FLCL, that animated acid trip is Tsurumaki's baby, not his.

Aww, and I was just thinking of inviting The Stuffman over for a DVD marathon, too! What's a few thousand miles between acquaintances?
Seriously, I'll give it a go when I've next got anything resembling actual money. I also want to try Kare Kano at some point, I've been recomended to that...

Almost all of my Anime is imported Region 1, so unless the American DVDs are bad in some way, I can't see any obvious reason to wait...

Have I come off as hideously dogmatic on this issue in the past, or are you just respecting general forum sensibilities?
Incidentally, what is that quote? I know it, but I'll be darned if I can place it right now.

Do you mean it's not even had an American release yet? Oh, I must be especially slow today.. I thought Reichu was suggesting I wait for a UK release, I didn't realise it might not even be out in the US...

From what I understand, there haven't been any proper DVD releases on any English-speaking shores at all. (Us Amerikajin sure haven't gotten anything.) Sharp-kun has DVDs, but they seem to be really crappy and with embedded subtitles. However, there is this, if you can support the region...

I think it's just a habit of mine to allude to the Path of Evil and then abruptly shut up (or else invoke Sharp-kun's wrath). I did it long before you arrived.
