Yes! Yes! Yes! Get all eight, watch them at one sitting, and blow your
mind like I did! It's good for you!

An excellent OAV series!

There are a few more, but I can't remember them off the top of my head.

Yes! Bubblegum Crisis was my first exposure to real anime. (Before it
was all American hack and slash stuff i.e. Robotech) It's an OAV series
with good story lines, wonderful animation, and the MUSIC! Oh, I fell in
love with the music when I first heard it. If you can get it, go watch
it, you won't be disappointed.

Here's a little trivia for you all, the producer, Suzuki Toshimichi, is a
die hard fan of the live action film Bladerunner and in Bubblegum Crisis
there references to the film as homage. ^_^

I'm in the process of dubbing all 8 of my BGC tapes onto one 6-hour
tape--so I can watch 'em all in one sitting without having to get up and
change tapes! Ahahahahahaha! The POWER!

It's better than watching the Superbowl, I tell ya! Beer. . .chips. . .and
BGC! ^_^

And if you liked watching BGC with beer, chips and remote firmly in

You can write to AnimEigo directly and order it. Eh. . .I don't have their
address or phone number with me at the moment. . . . (I'm lots of help,
eh?)

You can get them through mail order from Animeigo directly. If you don't have
the adress, I can e-mail it to you.

Drink once whenever:

A boomer gets wasted.
Nene doesn't get to fight.
Linna uses her ribbons, Priss her railguns, or Celia her blade.
Leon makes a pass and is dissed. ;]
A new model of boomer is seen onscreen for the first time.


Twice when:

Largo says something utterly cool.
A 33-S that we haven't seen before appears onscreen.
Priss swears.
Macky gets whaped, yelled at, has a slip tossed at for being hentai. ;]

Thrice when:

An orbital beam satelite fires.
A motoslave is used in combat.
Anri/Sylvie dies.

And drink EVERYTHING when Nene does a forward flip!
(It happens!)


That can't be all, tho. Add on!

Drink once when:
Nene gets a shot off but gets wasted anyway.
Daley makes a pass at Leon and Leon brushes it off.

Drink once whenever a AD Police vhicle gets trashed.
Nene stuffs her face after someone has complained about her weight.>

Or when:
One of the Knight Sabers either acts on their own (a la what Priss & Linna were
gonna do in BGC2, if the others hadn't caught them), or you can broaden this to
any violation of the code of the Knight Sabers, if you know 'em all. =) That
should keep your glasses empty...

Whenever a song by/not by (your choice =) ) Kinuko Oomori starts playing.


>>>Twice when:

>>They show you the Knight Saber suitup scene.

How about when a Knight Saber gets trashed (besides Nene). I think this
would probably include the suit and probably a motoslave/cycle (so the
Highway Star in BGC4 would count, as well as the various helmet-shatterings
and motoslave-go-boom-ings in BGC5 & 6)...


>>>Thrice when:
>>>An orbital beam satelite fires.
>>>A motoslave is used in combat.
>>>Anri/Sylvie dies.

How about during a "shower scene" (BGC7/8) or the like. Perhaps expand
it to "any gratuitous shot of a (male or female) character (mostly) unclothed"
or something... ?


>>>And drink EVERYTHING when Nene does a forward flip!
>>>(It happens!)

How about when Mason/Largo dies? =)
fine, or not... =)
Largo's death in BGC6 seems so... well ... dumb. Quick, maybe. =S
