I have a random question about this series. I know that ADV released two episodes, but are there any more episodes or is that the entire series?

Nope. That's it. There's a manga, but no more anime.

Hey is the rumor that some of the production staff got busted for drugs true? I mean, it wouldn't really surprise me given the content they spawned, but I always sorta shrugged that off as heresay.

heehee! I have no idea about drugs but I wouldn't be surprised if most of the people that make anime are on some form of drug Wink

Isn't the whole "anything creative or outlandish must have been made under the influence of drugs" joke getting a LITTLE tired? I'm really getting sick of people saying "X is like series Y, except ON CRACK!" or "What were they smoking when they made this?!".

Maybe I'm just easily annoyed, but I wish people would give creative people a little more credit and come up with some new material.

From the Dragon Half FAQ

Quote:
Rumor: "The head of the company which publishes Dragon Half was arrested"

My reply: Well, this is true. IIRC, Kadokawa Haruki had a bit of
cocaine trouble back in '96, and was carted off to jail for it. However, I don't see how this could affect the OAV releases of
Dragon Half. Kadokawa Shoten didn't publish these videos, Victor Entertainment did. And if it really did matter, the animated versions of Slayers would have never shown up.
Some people have actually misconstrued this news completely and say that it was the CREATOR (read: Mita) of Dragon Half that was arrested. Good lord, that is SO not true!! ^.^;;


Damn, I still haven't seen the Dragon Half OVA DVD on store shelves in Montreal (the release date was in September, according to AnimeOnDVD.com)... though I do have the soundtrack album/drama CD from Victor Japan when I need a Dragon Half fix. Wish they'd translate the manga to French...

Except that a majority of "creative" people use "creative" ways of finding inpiration for their "creations."

It's more of a stereotype than a joke.
