Does anyone know if this has been licensed for release in the US? --Theredstarswl 20:47, 5 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Not yet. The themes make it a bit of a tough sell, and the "buzz" in fandom has so far been overwhelmingly negative. A lot of people in public forums and the like have expressed an intense dislike for this series. Michael Hopcroft 18:10, 23 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

odd that, but it has been widely recieved. naturally, Triad has done a high qaulity job with the subs. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.194.195.11 (talk • contribs) 2006-05-04

And if it gets dubbed into English, people might wonder why Dokuro-chan is talking about PP2P2P2PP2P file sharing,[1] which is often used to make illegal copies of anime. --Damian Yerrick (talk | stalk) 02:36, 31 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

As it turns out, Media Blasters has decided to take a chance with the show. Michael Hopcroft (talk) 03:11, 21 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It is out and has been found at Best Buy's for an average of $15.99US and it is subbed not dubbed. All episode are contained in a 2 disc set —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.236.34.117 (talk) 00:18, 2 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

if it's not dubbed, why is there English dub credits on this page?(24.22.195.180 (talk) 22:23, 6 July 2010 (UTC))[reply]

Oddity

Its rather odd that there should be a male character called Sakura,since "Sakura" is usually a girl's name. - R.G. 19:00, 28 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Eh, what bearing does that really have on the article? It's a little odd, but if it has nothing to do with the article, then there's no need to post something about it. -- (十八|talk) 22:52, 28 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sakura is one of numerous Japanese personal names, such as "Shinobu" and "Hikaru", that are used by both genders. There are so many of these names that there is very little remarkable in their use. Michael Hopcroft 06:14, 5 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed, it would be more remarkable for a Japanese name to be completely gender specific, the concept of 'biological gender' within the Japanese language is best understood as 'having male characteristics' versus 'having female characteristics', a really tomboyish girl will probably be referred to with words which usually are reserved for males and the reverse, it's not as rigid as 'he' and 'she' in English are.

Second Season

wow, after two years a sequel, this is great news. any speculation/news/estimates of what time it comes out this year? 苏革曾 - (uiShtieK) — ^Talk/Contribs 05:32, 13 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Just out of curiousity.....Where did you hear that? Halo3master5000 07:34, 16 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's in the article and referenced. Should be out in the fall. Doceirias 19:56, 16 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

From what I hear, it is possible (from what others have heard or thought) that the next episode won't be out till when it's meant to be out (Yeah, Valentines... when else is the perfect time to show it?) --AOL Alex 21:48, 28 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Anachronism

"...Sakura is apparently destined to create a technology that stops girls from aging after they reach the age of twelve years, which has led to Sakura gaining a reputation as a pedophile around his school, despite the fact that he's not old enough to be considered one."

He was called a pedophile by his classmates before they even found out about his invention. Look around eight minutes into the first episode.--Bluish wolf 17:05, 16 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

That's probably due to him already exhibiting pedophile tendencies already, and his classmates picked up on it. The fact that later he invented such a thing proves their observations.--十八 02:05, 17 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The sensitive salaryman

AFAIK it's a movie not a tv serie.--Magallanes 14:40, 22 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

And your source would be?--十八 14:57, 22 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's both a TV series and a movie.--Bluish wolf 04:55, 27 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I made it a redirect to this article as well. OBEY STARMAN 18:45, 17 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Just to make sure

So, is it normal for the plot of the second season to completely drop off from the first? As in, I thought the younger sister was an enemy of sorts. I like the series, but did I miss something here? (the article could explain this stuff if anyone knows the answer, so please don't chastize me by saying my comment is irrelevant) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.190.109.88 (talk) 09:14, 26 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Seiyū

Do you think it's necessary to add the seiyū of the characters in the series to the main article? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.80.172.239 (talk) 05:04, 16 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, that would be helpful. Guess I'll do it.--十八 05:56, 16 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Mania.com Special Edition DVD --KrebMarkt (talk) 16:49, 11 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Durarara

In the Durarara anime, some of the characters are seen talking about an angel that flys around and says "pipirupirupirupi" and then are later seen saying that they would torture someone using the methods described in a copy of Bludgeoning Angel Dokuro-Chan. Maybe stick it in an In Popular Culture section or something? 99.22.247.132 (talk) 01:06, 9 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Dokuro's chant

In the "Plot" section of the article, it says that her chant ("Pipiru-pipiru-pipiru-pi") is a habit of hers, and bears no significance. In her part of the "Characters" section, it says the chant is what allows her to resurrect people with Excalibolg. Is that a mistake, or am I getting confused by the wording?
