Welcome to the Future
Thanks to the input of member Scott MacGregor, the new Shrine of Akira is up and running! Lain obsession has invaded the layout and it seems that most of our members are just as addicted to Lain as they are to the almighty Akira! Well, seeing as how your all mostly anime freaks anyways, I don't think anyone will care.

I hope by now you all know who Lain is. If not let me clue you in. Lain is a young girl who becomes so obsessed with the Internet that the border between the real world and the world of the wired both begin to blur for her. Then she discovers the shocking truth, "Here, there is a God." Seems kinda appropriate to make her the un-offical masscott of our little group.

With all this Lain buisiness aside, I hope you all come to like the new additions to the Shrine. Some of the newer features are the Ramen Recipie section. The IAQ (Infrequintly Asked Questions), and the Member Gallery where you can view art from our various members... (This will be up a few days after this issue is posted) The only other new thing we've got at the moment is the Josta-cap Instant Win game! With this the spirit of Josta will live on for eternity!! HAH-HAH-HAH-HAH!!!!

Check under the cap to win!

Bad hair day

  • Anime Review: Masamune Shirow's New Dominion Tank Police
    This is a part re-telling, part continuation of the original Dominion Tank Police. Fans of the previous series will be intrested to know that the sometimes crude humor has been cleaned up, however the story and the quality of the animation more than makes up for it. Unlike it's predecesor, the only complaints parents might give about this one is for a bit of profanity. For example, my favorite quote, in fact the only spoken dialog in the opening, "Let's blow those b*tches away!!" All and all this is a realy good anime about Dominon's world of 2100AD Japan and the wacky police force that patrols, and occasionaly destroys it. You may not want to buy it, but you deffintly need to rent it.
