<sigh> I wish there were more shoujo fans out there ^_^; This list seems to be predominately male ... so more oft than not my questions go unanswered. Well ... here are a few more ^.^x

Regarding the Angel Sanctuary DVD ... a brief scene with a boy screaming in bed is played when the last question under the Extras -> Trivia section is answered correctly. Was it just me, or did I not see anything that remotely resembled this segment in the DVD episodes?! I've been told that Angel Sanctuary was just an OVA and therefore only three episodes long ... but I'm pretty sure that the two characters in the "bonus" scene were found in a later part of the original manga that was not covered by the OVA episodes. Or is the animated series actually more than three episodes long? I don't think these scenes were especially produced for the Trivia section.

Any word on the DVD release of CLAMP's X? It's been rumoured to be "coming soon" ever since August 2000 (if not earlier). The US theatre runs have long been over and the subtitled and dubbed VHS's have been available for a while too.

On a different note... the Vampire Miyu TV series is finally coming the US! The first DVD will contain four episodes and be released sometime in August. The TV series is better animated than the OVA, the story longer and more compelling ^_^

Haven't seen Angel Sanctuary yet, and therefor can't explain the trivia clip, but I do know that AS is a 3 episode OAV series, and that's it, so far. Hopefully it'll do well enough to get a full series (the premise sounds really interesting).

Current street date is September 25th. But, Manga is pretty well known for missing streetdates, so it's one of those keep-your-fingers-crossed deals (I really, really hope they don't get the rights to the upcoming TV and OAV series).
