I was flicking through the more obsure channels on one of my satelite setups (no freeview card, no sky card, just the box) and found a channel that had some intertesting stuff

Anime Central (Lots of Ghots in the shell and Coyboy bee bop. very good if youlike that sort of "manga" thing)
Also X.League TV was ok with on line gaming a some good car racing (clio cup or minis etc), but now its gone :(
CNX use to be brilliant but vanished
The Goll channel had Big Break which was a really good Golf "talent show" that was a highly watchable format that im surprised has not made it to a more mainstream channel.

So does anyone else have any hidden gens that would like to share, especially car related or geneal Mud-Club-esque stuff can be freeview or subscription.

Am I the only person who doesn't understand a word of that  ?  :huh:

It maybe better to understand if spelt correctly!

Its Ghost in the shell and cowboy bee bop.

For those who dont know manga you will probably know a couple of the animations, the most famous one being Akira.

Would recommend watching Guyver though, or cyber city oedo 808.

I hate to say this but the misspelling made absolutely no difference at all to my lack of understanding.

I prefer the Urotsukidoji series, although Akira is one of my favourites.

Manga is a Japanese style of cartoon/comic strip writing (although they're often not intended to be funny, so comic is a bit of a misnomer). Anime is the screen adaptation of this into a cartoon series.

Any other Initial D followers out there? I've considered a Project D sticker for my Disco before now... :lol:
