Posted February 2, 2011 (edited) Next Anpanman marathon: some time in december About this show: Bread people fight against germ people, in short. Anpanman is a Japanese children's cartoon about the gingerbread man if he was a superhero. So, yes. Anpanman is a man. Made out of anpan. And he feeds his head to children and goes around on patrol and is a generally very kind soul. The bad guy of the series is named Baikinman, and he is an evil little germ man... who likes to crossdress. He exists simply to make Anpanman's life a living hell. Even though Anpanman never does anything wrong, and he consistently helps others, even especially at his own expense. So, yes. This show is fabulous. Believe it or not. There aren't that many subtitled episodes (my sister is currently the only one working on them, but she's busy), but the show is so simplistic you don't really need them. The translated episodes have been taken down. Did I mention that this show definitely inspired Pokemon? =V Edited November 12, 2012 by Zovesta Share this post Link to post

Posted February 22, 2011 So weird that it makes the full loop and goes right back to normal. Baikinman. Share this post Link to post
Posted February 22, 2011 Speaking of loops, I CAN'T STOP LICKING DELICIOUS ANPAN IS TOO DELICIOUS アンパン、おいしすぎーーー ハヒ .... Share this post Link to post
Posted February 22, 2011 Well, that's ok. I can't stop turning the wheel of my van anyway. Yes, delicious Anpanman is delicious. ... hoo-hey-hoh. Share this post Link to post
Posted February 22, 2011 I watched that episode you linked and I actually found it pretty interesting. But I'm staying away from it. When I like something, I become obsessed with it, and I just got over my (second) obsession phase over Dragon Ball Z. I was obsessed with it when I was 14, watched almost all of the episodes, got over it, and forgot about it. Just recently became obsessed with it again and just finished watching every Dragon Ball Z episode in under 2 weeks. So yeah.... I need some rest before I become obsessed over another show...

Posted February 22, 2011 IF THEY DIDN'T WANT IT THEY SHOULDN'T HAVE ORDERED IT Share this post Link to post
Posted February 22, 2011 Yaay! I love you. To be honest, the rest of the episodes haven't been translated yet. >_> But I could still give you some. As could Volatile. We both have mountainous amounts of bookmarks. You could also take an episode from here, here, or here (from the list) and just start watching. :| It's how I found most of the episodes.

Posted February 22, 2011 (edited) Well looks like I'm not getting any sleep tonight (or should I say this morning since It's almost 6am). *wanders off* Edited February 22, 2011 by tikigurl91 Share this post Link to post
Posted February 22, 2011 Bwahaha if you want I could always private message you some funny episodes. Especially if you have a preference. =V It's almost 5 AM here and I'm still watching Anpanman. >__> Share this post Link to post
Posted February 22, 2011 Well This One was really funny. Poor Horaaman... such an airhead. XP At first I found Horaaman a little creepy, but he's kind of growing on me. Too bad there aren't that many that are translated, although I don't mind watching it without subtitles, It would make it a little less confusing. Share this post Link to post
Posted February 22, 2011 I don't have that many Horaaman episodes, but I'll send you some. <3 I know, right? He's so great. XDXD Actually, same goes for most of the characters. Bread people... giving their heads to people (and apparently burning their faces, too >_>), germ people, skeletons... Very true. @_@ Volatile (my sister, she's the one working on them) is working on translating more episodes, but you know... some people need a life outside of Anpanman (BLASPHEMY). They're pretty simple, though, so it's easy enough to understand. Sending~ Share this post Link to post
Posted February 22, 2011 Yeah I was watching one of the episodes that wasn't translated and it's still pretty easy to understand what's going on. And I was just imagining what they were saying in my head, it's pretty fun. XP Share this post Link to post
Posted February 22, 2011 I know, right? Before my sister translated them I had so much fun coming up with what they were saying. What I thought. Baikinman: GO TO ****ING HELL YOU STUPID PIECE OF BREAD *more profanity* In reality: Baikinman: I'll get you, Anpanman! ... >:| I was not impressed. Share this post Link to post
Posted February 22, 2011 (edited) Actually, Baikinman DOES use a lot of swear words (always saying "crap," for instance, and the first time he ever addresses Anpanman is with a second-person pronoun that has the connotation of "you ****ing ***"). Thing is, they're not such a big thing in Japan. Translating them literally kind of messes with the kids' show feel, though Edited February 22, 2011 by Volatile Share this post Link to post
Posted February 23, 2011 (edited) You've told me this. XDXD That was before I knew that, though. I still find it hilarious. Yay! Baikinman IS a potty-mouth! (also get on Gmail now before I have to get off D:) Your avatar and signature combo makes me laugh every time I see it. Edited February 23, 2011 by Zovesta Share this post Link to post
Posted February 24, 2011 Just so you know, I still haven't watched any of those episodes yet. I try to have as much of a life as possible on my days off since that doesn't happen very often (the life part and the days off part XP) but I'll be going back to work tomorrow for the next few days so I'll probably just spend my lonely nights watching them.

Posted February 25, 2011 (edited) Do it do it do it! And tell meee... I need to know just how much of the sickness I'm spreading. I need to watch more episodes so I can add my screenshots to my rant, anyway. =V Also, got my mom to watch more. >_> Horaaman's horrific gardening was almost enough to make her cry.
