I have to hand this article in in about half an hour, I'm about halfway through the article because I've not had time with coursework and everything. Anyone got any ideas?

Make a comment about the popularity of the Boondocks, Spirted Away and DBZ and maybe Sailor Moon. Then make notice of about how the Powerpuff Girls and Samurai Jack (and maybe that Avatar thing Nick) had obvious influences from anime. Make a slight refernces to manga and if you know anything about it make a reference to Batman: Child of Dreams, a manga based on Batman that was published in Japan and then ported here. Isall I got.

The Hypocritical nature of the Japanese anime "fan"
Dubs vs. Subs.
Does anime equal animation? An in-depth look . . .

Or write about what I'm currently working on:
Games that could've been made into great Japanese anime.
Portrayal of ethnicities in Japanese anime.

And oh yeah . . . you are SOL'd.

If it makes u feel better, I haven't written anything in a month (classes). Hopefully that'll change once my DSL service kicks in.

HA! But no seriously how will some brand new $300 fronts make him happy. People are always after such materialistic things.. I'd get a XBOX360 and Perfect Dark my eyes out.

I handed it in. It was nowhere near perfect, and I could have done with some more time to brush it up, but there was none, I had to be on the coach.

I did. That was the problem. With lots of coursework, and a dozen very good friends in the country for only a week and a half, after which Ill probably never see any of them again, the article was a low priority.

Seeing as how the thread is over a month old, I'm sure the paper is done or past due by now. And, seeing as how there wasn't much settled or discussed anyway, I think I'll lock it.
