hehe thanks for the suggestions ^^

they might be needed :P

My first project is to go to my grandmother and  help her fix the garden for the winter. That will take some effort, especially considering that she has neither internet nor tv...

LOVED it! It was so weird, twisted and freaky! The animation, music, storyline, everything about it was great! I ran out and bought the boxset right after seeing it because I knew, one day, I would want to see it again or even share it with others.

This is just a cartoon-anime hybrid :) Actually this is the only comic adaptation that's similar to anime :) You could say, it's more anime than a cartoon because there are anime expressions and behaviors, but mostly in funny moments. Maybe i'll say it like that: Characters are an anime and the rest is a cartoon :P I've twisted it a lot, but i hope You'll understand.

I has cleaned the kitchen!

Actually, not much is happening here. I am still tuning the meds, the pulse has gone down below 90 (thank god) so I can raise the dose again. And until they are tuned I feel I can not look for employment since I can not be honest with an employer aout how much I can work and to what extent. So I am bored, at home most of the time. With a few things to do for my degree that has been twarted by the evil adhd.

So bored is my state of mind ><

Holy crap, someone besides me who actually took the time to list why he thinks his Top 5 Anime, should be his Top 5. Much more likely to actually watch it if I have an idea about why someone liked it. Thanks.

Oh, and your review on Voices, I haven't seen the anime in about 4 years, and by my memory of it, thats exactly what the anime is, a work of Awe. I disagree on your central idea of Science Fiction though.

Maybe for Clark, but Asimov and Heinlein at least, I always thought that their genius wasn't the ideas they presented. But rather they way they brought humanity to the work. Robot for instance is most definatly about the human condition. The robots are simply a fantastical counterpoint to us, The Three Laws of robotics is not merely a set of laws for robots, its the ideal that we all wish to achieve in ourselves as human beings, but never can; a goal we always strive for but quite never reach. Heinlein, his most famous work was Stranger In A Strange Land, and there is almost an absolute lack of science in it, as with most of his novels. Its all about the pathology of being human in his books. The only science fiction book I can think of off the top of my head which was merely fantastical, was Ringworld. And Ringworld, is the exception, not the rule.
