You know, the only problem I have with the AMG anime is that there are too many recent story arcs (even some really good ones that were skipped over) that will likely never get turned into an anime. But I guess that's just another part of why I usually prefer manga to anime. Oh well.

Welcome to the World of AMG

I wonder which one is true!?

what? I don't watch Ah! My Goddess, I've barely even seen it, and I still knew what AMG meant based on what was in their posts.

Admit it, you knew because you're an otaku, and not for any other reason.

No, seriously, this is the first time I've ever heard the term "AMG"

I have not taken a particular interest in the anime, so I can't really think of a situation where I would have heard of it before now.

Um... AMG is one of the big three. Back in the 90s, there were three animes/mangas that became really popular in the US and brought the whole anime/manga culture into popularity here. Those three were Dragonball Z, Ranma 1/2, and Ah My Goddess. How anyone who has any interest in anime/manga not have heard of AMG (and its abbreviation) seems a little impossible to me.

Dude, I was a CANADIAN 1-10 year old throughout the 90's. I didn't even know what anime was back then. And I doubt that they would show Ranma 1/2 here cause of the inappropriateness (this is CANADA not the US) and I think something similar for AMG.

The big FOUR of that decade, for my age group, was Pokemon, Digimon, DBZ, and Sailor Moon.

Canada, America, really, it's the same. I did forget about Sailor Moon though.

AMG is far from in any way inappropriate. Ranma showed bare breasts on occasion, but AMG is like zero ecchi (well, unless you count the times Peorth and Urd tried to seduce Keichi, but they were never naked or even in any real provocative poses). It's like the most family friendly manga I've ever read.

Like I said, i never saw it so I dunno why they wouldn't show it.

But as far as Canada goes, I don't believe they showed AMG. during those years, I basically grew up with channel 26 (YTV) and not much else. That's a Canadian station so yeah...

Despite what you might think, there is a difference between anime shown in Canada and those in the US. To the best of my knowledge (although I guess this doesn't apply to AG anymore) Canada will censor everything from nudity to violence. I don't think the US does that or at least not as strictly.

Usually if the anime is too censor needed, it doesn't come to Canada (like Ranma) which suks for us...

I'm familiar with YTV. And American TV is no different than Canadian TV, except we have more channels with less interesting shows (and more commercials, I think). As far as I know, Ranma didn't get any play on American TV either. But they did sell dubs of it in video stores, and it kinda got dragged along in the wake of DBZ and Sailor Moon becoming a fad.

Personally I hate censorship and don't see a need for it. Even if I had kids, I'd probably let them watch porn if they wanted, like what my dad did for me. Better they know what's what than keep it hidden and keep them ignorant. That's why the sexual revolution failed. Censorship just makes people stupid. The real world isn't censored.

I really need to learn how not to rant.
