~~MAJOR SPOILER!!~~
After a failed attempt at defeating Lil' Slugger (who changed into an abnormal form), Maniwa turns to the old man for help. He says something about dancing with a rabbit and then dies. Maniwa heads to Misae's house after hearing her on his radio equipment. When he arrives, he discovers that Lil' Slugger and Maromi are the same. While contemplating, he hears a voice calling to him. He discovers a doll in a playboy bunny suit as she asks him to follow her. Maniwa reaches the apartment of an otaku with a big collection of dolls. With their help (their animate to Maniwa and the otaku isn't aware of his presence), he discovers that there was another incident similar to the Lil' Slugger attacks. The incident took place ten years ago and the victim was Tsukiko! Maniwa goes to Tsukiko's father and discovers the truth behind the attack. Back at M&F, Maniwa contacts Tsukiko and tells her that he knows everything. However, Maromi cuts the line as Lil' Slugger suddenly appears. Maniwa appears in time as he fights Lil's Slugger. In the meantime, Maromi leads Tsukiko to Ikari's world. Soon, figures, images, and merchandise of Maromi disappear as some of the victims of Lil' Slugger fall back into their state of paranoia.

~~END OF MAJOR SPOILER!!!~~

btw, i copied that from an episode guide i got online. its not 100% accurate, but its a pretty good description of the episode. i think its utterly fascinating about how lil' slugger changes in the eyes of the public and the eyes of the people personally involved with him as the show goes on. i was browsing online (in a fashion not unlike radical edward [first person to tell me which anime thats from gets a cookie!]) and i found this forum where they were having a serious philosophical discussion about paranoia agent as it was airing each week. it was freakin amazing what they came up with and how intelligent they all were. it made me sad that i was only subscribed to here where an idiot will come in and lurk around your thread just to flame you like an ass... :*(

sorry for the double post (unless someone already posted before me) but i get the feeling that some people might think that my last comment on my last post was directed at one particular person. i shouldve been clearer. i had meant for that comment to represent all of the flamers that do that sort of thing, not anyone in particular.

so as long as thats cleared up, anyone here seen all of the paranoia agent episodes that have aired on adult swim? what do you guys think of that show? i personally love it. theres soo many things that you have to connect, soo many things that you can get hopelessly sidetracked on and soo many things that you think you know, but then are completely wrong about, that it just takes ahold of you and doesnt let go. im currently obtaining all 13 episodes right now and i wanna discuss the show cause i have it on my mind. so heres the first discussion topic: what exactly IS lil' slugger?

"you must not look away...
you must not turn your back on him.
he comes for people who have been driven into a corner and no where to go.
you must not talk about him...
you must not think about him...
rumors help him grow...
imagination...
and paranoia NURTURES HIM...
no where to go..."

that haunts my mind... 0.o

Then go ahead and make an anti-anime club, and when the mods lock it and ban you, do Newgrounds a favor and don't come back.

dont be an ass plz! sorry but i just had to say that

he's agreed to stop spamming already.

yes, thats why i double posted. ill be the first to say it: its always a good idea to have a second window open to the thread to refresh before you post so you may make changes to your post before its posted (if that makes sence:p)

anyway, does anyone wanna discuss lil slugger?(refer to my last post)

Radical Edward, full name Edward Wong Hau Pepelu Tivrosky IV, is from Cowboy Bebop. She's known as the greatest hacker on Earth, which isn't too hard to achieve since practically everyone who could has left the planet.

"what exactly is lil slugger with respect to:
1. the general public
2. maniwa(after he is off of the case)
3. the people directly attacked by him before he goes lethal
4. the people directly attacked by him after he goes lethal
or

There's certainly one on the Famicom...
Though I have not heard of any Gameboy release of it.

BTW, did anyone here go to Otakon 2004?

I technically did, for the last 2 or 3 hours, my Summer Study Penn State buddies and myself snuck in and toured the room inside the entrance. ALOT OF COSPLAYERS. Downtown Baltimore was filled with anime fans and cosplayers climbing into the fountains.

However, this year, for Otakon 2005, college students are getting the shaft... It's a week earlier than last year and completely ruined my summer and other college students.

However, Katsucon will be in my area and there is VERY good chance I will be going to it if I can find people who will go with me.

Okay thank you for explaining.

Brew is right, just like he has been time and time again. I'll have to include that in the rules which I wish people would read. Tink didn't make all those rules just be 'pfft' at.

Another rule that will be included is to multi quote instead of making 3 posts VS one post where you put all who you are quoting into one big post. If you don't know how to do this yet go to the General Forum and practice it. Hell, you should know how because I just told you how.

I wouldn't be surprised that there was alot there. It's in a good area and convient for travel as well. Kinda how it is with the convention every September here in Atlanta. It's always crawling with people from the surrounding states because it's easy to get to.

Bummer.

That or you can go by yourself and make new friends. I'm sure there will be some people in your area who will be there.

Geez, any reason they gave you as to why they didn't?

Today I may get a few Animes on DVD.

Which ones might you be getting then? I myself would love to get the entire series of Witch Hunter Robin and G Gundam, but that's off in the future that is. :*(

i always thought Gundam had an overuse of what i like to call "anime eyes", but that's just me. Witch Hunter Robin was always good i thought though, are they coming out with a Paranoia Agent DVD or did i miss it?

And here's to another of my "Too much spare time" Sprites.

===NOT SO SPOILER===

Hey, first post! I am a big Anime fan! I've collected all of Final Fantasy Unlimited, Zone of the Enders, Fist of the North Star and .Hack//sign.

Am currently collecting Chobits, Angelic Layer, Witch Hunter Robin and Haibane Renmei, Vampire Princess and CardCaptors!

Anime films I've got: Lady Death, Vampire Hunter D (both of em), Princess Mononoke, Dark Fury, Spirited Away, Blood: The Last Vampire, RayEarth, Appleseed and Zone of The Enders: IDOLO!

Hope to go to Ayacon next year, as we couldn't afford it this year, wanna buy some cheap animation merchandise, including my quest for a teddybear Grunty and Chocobo!

hey, i posted a thread in the anime club forums (on hyperboards.com) but hardly anybody goes there anymore. i had a question about saiyuki. does anyone know how many volumes there are on dvd?
