What? Oh, come on.

Gundam Wing: 49
Gundam Seed: 51
Rouroni Kenshin: Ninety something...more than 26, certainly.

What are you talking about?

Her's right. MOST are 26. There are exceptions, but most series are 26.
Every year in Uganda, innumerable children simply. . . disappear. These children all stolen under the cover of darkness from their homes and impressed into the guerilla armies of the LRA [Lord's Resistance Army]. In the deserts of Uganda, they are forced to witness the mindless slaughter of other children until they themselves can do nothing but kill. Kill. These children, generally ranging from ages 5-12, are brainwashed into murdering in the name of the resistance and into stealing other children from their beds to suffer the same fate.

Because of this genocide of innocence, hundred and hundreds of children live every night sleeping in public places miles from their homes, because they know that if the do not-- they will disappear. They will become just another number in this genocide to which the international community has chosen to turn a blind eye. They will become, in affect, invisible-- Invisible Children.

But there are those who are trying to fight against this slaughter of Uganda's children. They fight to protect these "invisible children." Please, help them help a country full of children who know nothing by fear. Help save the innocence. For more information concerning how you can help and how you can get an incredible video about this horrific reality, visit the Invisible Children home page.

Well, most anime shows in Japan are 26 eps long. Some of your older shows, were longer and then just about every Gundam show was longer then 26 eps. They made the story alot longer then what could have been put in 26 eps.

Escaflowne is 26 eps, but after frist. They want wanted to make the 39 or some eps, but the money flow started to drop, so they cut it down to 26 eps.

It mostly has to due with how much money they got going to do the show. Now a days, most are 26 eps long. But Gundam mostly goes past 26 eps.

To me, most animes should be around 26 to 52 eps long and end the story there. I really can't watch an anime that is longer then 60 eps.

Case in point with Detective Conan. Too many eps that make me stop watching it.

Omigosh, that sounds so cool!! You can have Wolfwood and Midvalley, and I can have Knives and Legato!! *glances at Golden Griff* Sorry. ^^; They don't have a Midvalley plushie, do they? Do they even have a Nick plushie? Do they even have a Legato plushie?! We have to make more petitions!! Give us our plushies!!

I think it may be difficult to make a plushie of a guy with spikes coming out of one shoulder, and a skull on the other. :eyebrow:

Nah, it's easy. Just don't make the spikes out of real metal. o.O;

Actually, it does. But that's okay. And as far as I know, the only plushified character is Vashu-kun. I really really want a Nicholas plushie, and a Midvalley plushie too. But don't tell him. I saw a Miroku plushie once, and I couldn't stop laughing at the expression on his face. XD

Have you ever considered what affect hanging out with Knives-sama so much is having on your mind?

And that's why we must have our plushies!! Don't get me wrong, I love my teddy bear (his name is Baby Gund, and despite his pinkness, he's a boy, darn it), but bishounen are where it's at. And remind me never to use that expression ever again.

I have a white fluffy teddy bear. His name is Fluffy (I'm so inteligent), and he's a boy. He has a heart in the bottom of his left foot and has velcrow (sp?) hands that can stick together. He's fun to sleep with. ...OMIGOSH!! I have to stop saying that!!! Once again, I bet Midvalley would be laughing at me. -_-;

No, you're only in trouble if you say that about your Midvalley plushie within his earshot. So, of course, I shall pointedly say it very loudly. ^^

I'm a big Milly fan. She's just so innocent and honest. She's also very strong, not just physically, but emotionally as well.

MY website is a good Trigun site...link's in my profile, my sig, or the "Site Reviews" section. And I shall refrain from mentioning my dislike for Millie here, since I don't want to spoil a new fan's fun.

The last AS airing made me a fan. I had followed the show through to the finale... and about the last 5 minutes or so of my tape got cut off. :mutter: But at least I have one (probably two) more chance(s) to see it. :)
