Yeah, I watch online. You can't find much anime at all on British TV, let alone the stuff I just mentioned.

The anime that does get on British TV is generally only stuff for shounen fans, and chances are it'll be on at some ungodly hour anyway.

P.S.- Prinny, those pics were hilarious.
A lot of people, though, would rather keep sensei, and other commonly known Japanese words and conventions (IE: san, kun, chan, etc.) in there.

I suppose I can live with honorifics since I know what all the common ones mean, although part of me thinks it's lazy translation. I watched a Youtube documentary about fansubs a while back which raised a pretty good point- if you're going to include honorifics, then why not all the different words for 'I' and 'you' (there's about 10 different words for both in Japanese), and sentence ending particles?

EDIT: I'm gonna leave Speed Grapher for now. Instead, I shall give Shigofumi a try.

Interesting factoid: Ghost Stories was not a comedy in the original Japanese version.

To my knowledge (I haven't seen either version, nor do I plan to), the ADV dub has the same basic plot as the original Japanese version, but for the dub they added a load of jokes and pop-culture references. Apparently, the original version was terrible.

Gonna start Boogiepop Phantom. Allegedly it's a lot like Serial Experiments Lain, so hopefully it should be good.
