I love dubbed anime, because when I know what their voices sound like it's easier for me to make up my own dialog for them in my head.

Yeah.

I'm one of the hardcore like the original dialog in Japanese type of anime watchers. I used to wacth dubbed but I realized dubbed sucks due they edit things out or rename things because of some religious or other "interests" groups could be angry at, ex. God Gundam in Moblie Fighter G-Gundam had to be rename Burning Gundam along with all of its attacks.

That's why I don't watch dubbed one bit anymore.

Not without going online (or going outdoors ).

Try

EzyDVD - http://www.ezydvd.com.au
or
JB Hi-Fi - http://www.jbhifionline.com.au

They're big chains and should have stores nearby - well, adelaide - and they're both very trustworthy online.

Fine.

1. Use the online stores to find what you want and how much it costs.
2. Work out how much the shipping costs too.

add it up and ask your mum if you can have $xx (whatever it costs) for that particular item (don't tell her it's online yet).

If she says YES, get her to sit with you when you (or she) pays for it. The two sites I cited are VERY reputable and the only possible problems you could have would be if your computer is already infected with something. Hopefully you have Anti-Virus and Firewall installed.

You can't keep doubting whether you're allowed to do things - that's making rules up to stop yourself. If it's not working for you, try to change things.

ive always had a problem with anime. in most animes ive seen, there is barely 20% the amount of actual animation as most other cartoons have, anime just feels cheap to me. there are a lot of static shots of characters standing still, and when they speak only their mouths move, there are usually no body movements which would occur in real life. this is not what animation should be at all, i feel like i am watching a very detailed storyboard at times, i sometimes would rather read the manga because i feel i would get more out of it. a lot of anime is also very very similar. though there are some well done animes out there, they are very few and far between.

some great ones would be Death Note (mainly for the story), Akira (great animation and visuals), cowboy bebop, and samurai champloo.

I agree, compare it to the original superman cartoons of the 40s! Classic.

The stories dont make any sense either. Its all so overly dramatic I cant buy a bit of it.

Limited animation is its own artform. Comparitively speaking, anime is made on a shoestring budget as compared with classic American animation of the Golden Age (which were made and sold to theaters). The Japanese make up for this using these hundreds of tricks to simulate motion and emotion.

To say that animation isn't supposd to be like that is to ignore the possibilities of animation. It can literally be anything. I personally prefer that animation break free of the constraints of realistic motion.

I actually think Japan sucks when it tries to go beyond limited animation. For the most part I find their character animation to be laughable. But their limited animation is brilliant.
