if any one of you need want a preview of the series, there's a trailer available at: www.advfilms.com/titles/cromartie/...so you'll know what kind of trip you'll be in for  the site is flash so it may load a bit slower than the usual for 56k-ers |

Looks interesting, and I like messed up stuff  . Saw a few episodes of this floating around on the newsgroups, so I might grab a couple and see what it's like. Kaz |

hhahah, finally, someone knows this!!! i ve watch and read several volumes, i agree, weirdest shit... hhehe, that guy over there looks like Haggar! (final fight) both of them looks like Freddie Mercury (popular rock singer from the 80's). in the anime, i think the only character there that has the most movement is Uchiyamada's mohawk! EDIT: there's gonna be a movie based on this anime and it looks just as bizarre  . check it out here: www.kurokou.com/ |

I've heard of Cromartie but I never actually a topic about it. Why is he trying to jam several dozens pencils in his mouth? to show how tough and badass (and stupid) he is... (?!?!) ...and that ain't the weirdest scene in the anime, believe me you |

    this is simply the weirdest anime i've ever watched in my entire life. it totally made me brain-dead after watching a few enjoyable (but unusual) episodes of it. no words can describe how unorthodoxly (is that a word?) funny this anime is. here'a a link of a person's feedback of it: www.jascii.net/newanime/jascii.php?jascii_view=103everyone in the school are both delinquents and morons, the worse in both worlds. pretty well-spoken and coherent for morons though in terms of dialogue (PLENTY of odd reasonings, catchphrases, and speeches in a just a few minutes' time). then, there's this dude who bites 50 pencils... at the same time! and a robot whom everyone, except the protagonists group, has no doubt it's human, and then there's that gorilla whom nobody's sure if it's a student or not... and finally, this muscle-bound suspender sportin' shirtless hairy-chested guy who looks astoundingly like Freddy Mercury. not a single teacher in sight in the first 8 episodes i saw (  ) i intend to collect the manga since i kinda like the manga a bit more (although both the anime and manga are nice... i just prefer reading ) PS Raiken: i think you posted a topic of this one back then if i remeber correctly. is it true or am i just imagining it? Edit: in the first image, the guy on the left looks surprisingly like Geese |

Only ever seen the movie dubbed, I've never seen it available in Japanese with English subtitles. As for the series it HAS to be dubbed because you gotta love it when it pauses and a guy shouts the name of the move Ken just did, while it also flashes up on writing on screen! Very cheesy, but also hilarious  Kaz |

 do you ever bother watching the movie in japanese language? i prefer it in its dubbed form since it's a lot more fun to hear the cheesy lines and B-grade kung fu movie voices the episodes are good too, although the 80's look and animation may not be tolerable by some (especially in the first 2 volumes of the DVD, where the animation is a bit weird at times). i wanna check out the new FotNS one day, with an updated look, continued storyline, and MODERN BADASS ANIMATION!!!!!!!11 gotta love Rei and his ability to shred punks to ribbons too |

Just got the DVD of the original movie again, and it reminded me of how much I love the series in general. The only problem is that with the movie they had to condense the story right down, meaning it's mainly just a gorefest with a bare minimum plot... but one of the very best gorefests there is  . Anyway, I've never read the mangas personally, but I would like to. For now though, I think I might start picking up the TV series DVD's again... "AAAAAAAAAH-DADADADADADADADADADADA! You're already dead..." Kaz |

  A post-apocalyptic wasteland may well be the perfect battleground for one of the most intense and most brutal action titles in anime: Fist of the North Star, the story of grand fighters and the quest for survival in a world thrown out of balance. Ken is an enlightened warrior. He has been given the moniker "Fist of the North Star." He hands are capable of killing in one punch or healing the sick. Seeking his love Julia, who was taken from him by Shin, the Fist of the South Star, Ken wanders the wastelands, fighting those who would prey on the weak and sowing the seeds of hope for those who will accept. Even as his own mission drives him onward, destiny will bring him new friends and old enemies. Even in this very brutal and graphic title, there is hope, hope for a future. |
