I just had a LOL moment from my favorite online webcomic...
And found the correlation between sith and masturbation! Seriously!

As some of you may know, I spend a fair amount of time at the weirdness that is Topless Robot.com. Looking there this eve I saw two trailers that really grabbed my attention and as such I felt compelled to share them. Both are from our friends in the orient.
The first is a samurai flick called Goemon, from the director who brought you Casshern (anyone else remember that? or am I on my own here?)
The second (see Aliendra, I didnt forget you!) is Anime in nature, and is called 'Baton'. As I watched this and the gorgeous cel-style animation it made me wonder, why havent Anime animators being hired to do a SW animated feature? they wouldnt necc need to do the story, but my GOD those animation techniques.....

That can't be the same Goemon from the Nintendo franchise can it (those games were so cool!)? Looks bloomin awsome though - thanks for sharing LW!
But I gotta disagree about that anime... It looks both puggly and fuggly to me. Looks like they've been tracing live action. Not a patch on something like Ninja Scroll's awsome fight scenes or Howl's gorgeousness.

@ Red: Really? personally I found the animation really nice; but hey-ho. I've seen so many anime, when something a little 'against the grain' comes along it always makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand on end...

No, no, you're right. Eye of the beholder and all that (can one still use that phrase amongst those of us who have D&D'd). I've just been on swtor.com and it's left me all prickly and bristling. Man those ***** really wind me up. I shall go and take a time-out as they would say.
I'm a big fan of anime too, but mostly mainstream stuff. If you've got any recommendations I'd love to hear them.
