I've got to say that Chobits is quite cute, and has one of the catchiest opening theme's I've heard in a bit. Thankfully I was able to download it yesterday. I'm getting deeper into Earth Girl Arjuna. I really enjoy it so far, but it tends to make me very pensive. Though I think that is a good thing. And it is one of the few things I've watched lately where I find myself so transfixed that at the end of the show it feels like no time has gone past.
It is once again making me think about anime making more of an entry into the US. I'd love to see something like Arjuna be released here, but I wonder how well it would do. At times it does get a little preachy, but it never seems to go overboard (at least for me, tolerances may vary.
On the note of things being released over here. I arranged to get two tickets for Escaflowne while it showing here. Supposedly The Brattle is getting it for a whole week. I'm quite curious about it because it is supposed to be quite different from the TV series.
