would anyone know of a place that rents anime tapes in south florida?
comic shop, or even an independant video rental place.

i have checked all the major chain rental stores (blockbuster,
hollywood video, video ave) and even a few lesser chains (commander
video) but havent found anything more than akira,gits, and ninja
scroll (a local blockbuster amazed me by having 2 eps of guyver and 1
ranma tv ep along with akira,gits and ninja scroll).

i am starting to doubt one exsits

I don't know about rentals ... that's tough. I do know that JACO meets at
UCF the 2nd and 4th Saturday of every month. I think an annual membership
is like $10.00 and a lifetime membership is $60.00. JACO members just sit
around and watch anime (And making fun of any english dubs we come across)
Anyway ... if you just wanna hang around and watch, that's cool and you
don't have to be a member for that. You have to be a member if you want to
borrow tapes from the library (I think JACO has over 300 at the last count).

Regular members may borrow 2 tapes at a time, and the tapes aren't due back
until the next meeting, but they MUST be back by then. Anyway, some of the
titles include:

Kimagure Orange Road (whole series)
Maison Ikkoku (Unsure)
Fushigi Yuugi (Whole Series and a few OVAs)
Escaflowne (Whole Series)
Five Star Stories
The Ranma 1/2 movies ... I'm unsure about the eps
The Sailor Moon movies as well as a few episodes
I THINK we have El Hazard

and that's just what I can think of ... we also have the vast majority of
Evangelion, X, and a great variety. I suggest if you can get to UCF, give
JACO a whirl.

This place sounds cool.. Is there a place like this in Atlanta, Georgia?
