I hope your not saying Ham-Ham is for kids only! Because I'm 17 teen and IT's my favorite show... (Sits down offended) I really didn't mean to offend you. If you look at it though, Hamtaro IS directed toward younger kids (I mean, the company that makes Hamtaro is called "Shogakukan", isn't it? (where "shogaku" means "elementary school")), but I'm definitely not saying that it's for kids ONLY. Kiddie shows can appeal to older people too, and that's perfectly fine. Oh um, to stay on topic, would Kuki like something like ....Pokemon or something along those lines? Not just the show, but the whole deal. I know its a bit obvious but well, you know. Yeah, I can imagine her playing the Pokemon games and she'd probably keep all her Pokemon from evolving just so that they'd stay cute. ^^ Anyway, about Japanese people liking anime, our school had two Japanese exchange students over the last two years, and they both attended Japan Club, but they never attended anime club. I guess they didn't really have any interest in anime. They seemed to be more interested in music and basketball. ^^;;; |

i agree with JB. i can imagine kuki being a fan of sailor moon Sailormoon would be a bit too violent for Kuki, atleast the unrated versions of them would be  Nigil: Diffently action and maybe war movies or possible westerns. Hogie: Mostly comedies, especially dumb comedy like the Scarey Movie series. Diffently a spoof film lover  Kuki: animated movies like Disney, pssibly Carebears as well, they seem to go well with the RMs. Wally: SCIFI flicks, action and horror films. He might get into Euro and Italian horror films as well. He also would be a pro whrestling fan as well. Abby: I would think she'd be into dramas and True Story films. Maybe some romantic comedies. |

Oh um, to stay on topic, would Kuki like something like ....Pokemon or something along those lines? Not just the show, but the whole deal. I know its a bit obvious but well, you know. I guess Rainbow Monkey's could be a very light parody of it in a way. Nah, Rainbow Monkeys arn't a parody of Pokemon, i don't think. I think "Yipper" is a pokemon parody. Everyone collects yipper cards, and the yipper cards--well, Most of the higher ranked KND Operatives have a rare yipper card of their own-- i wonder if they have pictures of the operatives on there? ;D I think rainbow monkeys is a parody of Care Bears, or something Ok, back on topic-- Since they are all about 10-11ish, I am guessing that they all still mostly watch cartoons. Numbuh 1- He'd probably sit down and watch whatever the gang is watching, but i'm sure he'd prefer action, maybe some drama. He probably dosn't mind certian animes, and (movies- Probably dosn't matter, as long as it's well-written. I'm sure he'd even sit through a chick-flick or two.) Numbuh 2- Probably Justice league, Ed Edd n Eddy, teen titans, comic-book related shows.. 'Prolly some animes, I'm sure he'd like to sit down with Numbuh 4 and watch some DBZ, and tough cartoons, like Gundam, and stuff like that.. but Numbuh 2 seems like he wouldn't mind watching the history channel, either. (Movies, i think he'd be into si-fi) Numbuh 3- Powerpuff Girls definatly, maybe some Fairly Odd Parents Probably younger kids shows still, like Blues clues, Hamtaro would definatly be her fav. (Movies, Definatly Disney/cartoons) Numbuh 4- Definatly Animes. DBZ is probably his fav *(operation report) Maybe some gundam, some big---robot fighting animes. I'm sure he'd like Teen Titans, and Megas XLR (Movies- Action) Numbuh 5- She's probably not much into watching TV as the others are.. but she does like a few shows more than others. I think she'd like Danny Phantom maybe (Some action, and story behind it), or Hehe, Yeah. probably teen titans, too. I think she'd sit down and watch whatever was on TV at the time, though. (Movies- Chick flick every once in awhile, but mostly action, and anything well-written.. kinda like Numbuh 1.) |

 You're wrong!!! There [glow=red,2,300]IS[/glow] much else!!! What about the story that's worthy of even a (Animal based) soap?! What about the character Devolopment!? The Michael Jackson-Like personality of the Main? I can see [glow=red,2,300]ALL[/glow] the KND watching it (Except #1 - who I don't think cares about TV as much as the others) I'd expect #3 to watch it mainly (#4 second.... [glow=red,2,300]Seriously!![/glow] Because (Unlike that stupid monkey thing) There is stuff in it that I'm sure he'd like...

Anyway, about Japanese people liking anime, our school had two Japanese exchange students over the last two years, and they both attended Japan Club, but they never attended anime club. I guess they didn't really have any interest in anime. They seemed to be more interested in music and basketball. ^^;;; I remember that when I first mentioned to my Japanese teacher that I liked anime, she wanted to know what titles I liked, and what is shown over here. So I started listing different anime I had heard of and seen (as well as everything that plays on Cartoon Network), and the only things she had heard of -- out of a VERY long list -- were the older Studio Ghibli films and Dragonball. ^^ Hee. I'm always amused at the people who -- to go with Kiyosuki's statement -- and worship Japan and anime to such an extreme that when they picture Japan, they think that EVERYONE wears those Sailor Moon school uniforms and breathes anime. Hell, the probably think that people over there have pink hair, too. It amuses me so much... especially when I run into anime fans on the internet that say they are from Japan, but when asked to describe Tokyo -- where they *always* "live" -- sound like they swallowed a guidebook and can't even name their favorite restaurant. ::coughity cough cough:: Right. Back on subject... ... ...I honestly don't think Three would be too much into Sailor Moon. Maybe on a superficial "Yay! Superheros and pretty!" level, but I doubt past there. And, if she was going to dress up like one, she'd obvious pick Usagi (even though she looks nothing like her), because Usagi is The Main Character. ^^ |

Uhg, don't get me started on the stories I could tell.. lol  Yeah, Rainbow Monkey's could be more a Care Bares thing, since mostly the ladies like it (If you a guy and you like it though thats ok! Please don't hurt me..) but Yipper's enjoyed by both gender's. Whatever happens though, I hope we have a nice...Rainbow Monkey free season this next year.. Now I know how the KND boys+5 probably feel about the bloody monkies. XD |

I used to be a Hamtaro fan myself (Shut up! ) and it's cute and has some story to it but it's mostly for chidren. I can't see Wally like it... Hmmm... Well... Wally: *Watching Hamtaro* IT'S HAMTARO TIME! HAM-TA-RO! WHEN WE WORK TOGETHER IT'S MUCH BET- *Kuki walks in the room* Wally: *Quickly switches the TV over to wrestling* Heheheh, *Anime sweat drop* Hi Numbuh 3... Heh... Just watching wrestling... |

Xactly I can see that happening I can tell by the way he acts he's a fan... Also try liking it again! IMHO it's 4 all ages (Of course being a fan of Michael Jacson helps  ) And it's well developed. It is one of the few things that keep me going in this world... |

Half of the reason I stopped liking it was because Fox Kids stopped showing it. I wasn't really interrested in the story, I just got sucked up into the cute-ness ^^;.
