I'm not certain if there's another thread out there that covers this topic..... If there is, then please accept this humble apology.

So SciFi (er, Syfy..... what rubbish) started rebroadcasting Tokko when a scene comes where a detective walking into a gore-spattered crime scene says, "The only thing I've seen that was worse this morning was my breakfast."

So: Has any line of dialogue &/or scene stuck in your mind or otherwise caught your fancy?

L ( Deathnote ) "I just can’t sit any other way than this. If I sit the way other people do, my reasoning ability drops by 40%."

Pretty Much every single word that ever escaped his mouth is stuck in my memory forever.

Every so often, I spout random lines from the Garzey's Wing dub, just to make my fiance angry. I usually get about 2 words out before he tells me to shut the @#$% up.

Aside from that, me and my sister have a tendency to take a potato chip... and EAT IT! when the opportunity arises. Laughing

Gurren Lagann:
"Who the hell do you think I am?!!"
"Believe in me who believe in you!!"

And there is the infamous french dub of Hokuto no Ken:

"Times, like eggs, are hard boiled"

"Boss! Boss! It's Toki!"
"Toki? So what?"
"He did tic-tac!"
"He did tic-tac, Toki? How strange!"

I like lots of lines but I can only think of the most recent right now, from Kodocha:

Tsuyoshi: Well folk it looks like we have a surprise upset!
Sana: What's the surprise? I'm already upset!

Well that's what it was on the dub, anyway. Haven't checked the Japanese track.

Oh my goodness, I can't believe that I forgot this line! Rolling Eyes Embarassed

(Mostly) from the 1st season of Shakugan no Shana:

"Oosai! Oosai! Oosai!" "Urusai! Urusai! Urusai"* ("Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!")
--Shana dressing down Yuji



*Thanks to abunai for the correction.

From ROD:

Anita: I wonder how much I can get for it on eBay.

(referring to Nenene's gift of an autographed book.)

From Azumanga Daioh. Tomo, gleefully holding the buckets of water in the corridor:
Rakusho! Rakusho!

"...Now it's time for a sleepover!"
"Yes, by all means, go to bed!"

For the past month it has been a quote from Gurren Lagaan:

"Who the hell do you think I am?!" - Kamina/Simon

End of Evangelion, Asuka to Shinji (dub):
"I'd rather die than do it with you!"

Often applicable!

This quotation from the title card of Gall Force 3: Stardust War has been much on my mind of late:
"FROM FAR BEYOND THE UNIVERSE CAME OUR ANCESTORS, LEAVING US BEHIND IN THIS NEW WORLD. THE GALL FORCES WILL AGAIN TRANSMIT FROM GENERATION TO GENERATION... AS A MYTH, OF THE DRAMA WHICH TOOK PLACE IN THE VAST UNIVERSE."

Very Happy

I'm looking at this Sekirei tagline: "Bust out your superpowers". Funimation and I can't be friends anymore. That is just a terrible way to market your product with cheap puns.

Oh, they could do better.

I have read on the back of a Plastic Little VHS: "They aren't plastic, and they aren't little". Yeah, it was back at the time when anime were on VHS, and I still remember it!

Well, at least it's a subtle improvement on Funi's "Wanna see 30 panty shots?" tagline from Shuffle...
