Magic Knight Rayearth!

Magic Knight Rayearth was my first anime love, and it is my pleasure and honor to be the one to pimp it out to you guys. It's pretty old school - the anime ended in 1995 and the manga in 1996, but I don't know of a single series out there that so effectively utilizes the art of the brain-breaking plot twist and is so irreverent of genre lines.

ILU SO MUCH YOU BEAT ME TO EEEEET XDDDDD ♥

FUUUU. Yesssssss app us a Fuu~ (Or a Ferio asdghsg both would be love) I can't describe how much I'd flail over having a whole set of Knights again.

Icons, Japanese raws, bases, screencaps... ANYTHING THAT'S NEEDED I can provide. I don't think there's a piece of material about this series I don't own. It sold me to anime & manga forever.

Also, you can watch the anime online here, though I do recommend reading the manga first.

It's available on DVD. Or was, back when I bought it. :D;; All I know is that it got licensed but I'm not sure if the DVDs are available anymore.

THANK YOU not just for purposes of pimping but also because I wanna re-watch the anime. >> And I've actually never seen the second season. :O

Here, have a completely inappropriate and randomly-chosen icon, which reminds me - can you come on AIM at some point~?

You should watch it. If only to see Umi kicking the Chizeta Princesses' ass in a sword match.

I don't vouch for my internet connection today: it's working like crap, but I'll see if I can log on in a moment.

HEY DON'T QUESTION MY MOTIVES, THEY ARE HONORABLE AND NOBLE, NO ONE CAN CHALLENGE THAT. she does it in the manga too shhhh

And for the record, there are DVD versions available, and I believe you can find dual-audio over on tokyotosho. I highly suggest listening to japanese only

I think the manga is still around--my brother's girlfriend pulled out a copy of it at a bookstore once to show me the "Mokona is God!" scene. XD Although it's possible the bookstore just happened to get some copies before it went OOP.

I- I really have no idea, but you'd think it'd be gone after ~15 years. There's an omnibus edition coming, though, so I wouldn't be surprised if the regular volumes got re-released or something? idek.

Or maybe it's not gone and I'm on crack, who knows.

I think it depends on the series, really--CLAMP's still popular enough that I'm not really surprised to find even their old stuff at Border's. Buuut I don't pay that close of attention.

Yeah, I think TokyoPop is still releasing the series in weird spurts. I keep seeing it in bookstores, but the artbooks are definitely OOP.
